Tears are forming in your eyes
A storm is warning in the skies
The end of the world it seems
You bend down and fall on your knees
Well get back on your feet yeah
Don't look away
Don't run away
Baby it's only life,
Don't lose your faith
Don't run away,
It's only life
Its Only life by Kate Voegele www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTrpjyNjfL0
Nasty rainy day here today, been one of those weeks... just been tired... so this is my lazy sp. But no matter what this song always makes me feel better. Another SP for my 52 weeks 5/52.
The Erbdrostenhof forms a part of the baroque island
Erbdrostenhof
This masterpiece by the baroque architect Johann Conrad Schlaun built between the years 1753 and 1757 forms, together with the Clemens and Dominican churches, the “baroque island” at the Salzstrasse. Another particularity: Münster’s most beautiful nobility court stands diagonally on a rectangular plot of land.
The exterior of the Erbdrostenhof was faithfully reconstructed after the war, serving as the office of the Westphalian State Conservator today. Of the interior elements, only the staircase and the banqueting hall on the first floor were restored to their erstwhile condition.
The building is accessible to the public only for events in the banqueting hall.

Petit-duc maculé | Eastern Screech Owl | Megascops asio
Deux jours après avoir aperçu son mâle au trou no 2, j'ai retrouvé la dame Petit-duc de forme grise (celle à la moustache carré) au trou no 1, ce même trou où elle a été vue à plusieurs reprises l'année dernière, ce même trou où elle a été si joliment captée en janvier avec son mâle! J'espérais bien pour le jour de la Saint-Valentin les retrouver ensemble, lors de cette courte visite par -20°C ... Et bien non, madame était seule...
Autre point de vue...
Sur cette photo il s'agit toujours du même oiseau dans la même cavité, seule ma position a changé. En m'approchant au pied de l'arbre afin de faire une prise en contre-plongée, j'obtiens ainsi un point de vue complètement différent... Observation intéressante, on peut apercevoir ici l'effet d'un petit coup de vent qui aura tout «échevelé» son aigrette droite!
Thunderstorms in the upper Midwest of the US this year have been returning to what was once their typical behavior. Fueled by the waning heat of a rapidly retreating sunset, ordinary clouds suddenly boil over into massive, powerful thunderheads within a few minutes due to cooler air as night approaches. This leads to spectacular summer cloud-watching displays. My neighbors and I emerge from our homes to enjoy the enormous forms swirling above us, lit in almost theatrical splendor. The final display of solar rays illuminating faraway mountains of water vapor is, for us, unequaled in beauty.
A very cute little plant, this forms a low clump or tuft of tiny, filigreed green leaves. Starry little pink flowers appear from late spring through to the fall. Survives best in mild winter regions, but in cold climates it is easily wintered in a pot indoors, then brought back outside for the summer. A wonderful selection for the rock garden or alpine trough, this is one of the few rock garden plants that flowers the entire season long

I made a new blog post (different situations) with pictures from December 2013 to March 2014. I hope you enjoy this little diary. ♥ Blog / Facebook / Print Shop
I got an unexpected gift recently in the form of a mirrorless camera. I'd never even had one in my hands before, so I don't really know what I'm doing. As these things tend to go, when I went to try it out the yard was maddeningly quiet. But eventually the usual suspects appeared, and then this orange-crowned warbler, which is a common spring bird in the yard. I'll have to go back and look at my notes, but I'm not sure I've ever seen one in September.
As for the camera, the thing that really leaps out at me is the setting for silent shutter operation, which I love, since it does not even register with small birds around the minimum focus distance of my lens. The other relevant thing I'm sure will be improved is lowlight capability, which should also come in handy since our yard is heavily shaded. Orange-crowned warbler, backyard Olympia.
Taken on the 9th of June this year 2018 in my garden.
One of the half dozen forms of this bee mimic two of which are described as 'narcissi form' the paler abdomen version seen here. The other form has the abdomen the same orangy/tawny colour as its thorax.
I have been quite lucky in getting quite a number of the different forms visit the garden though sadly not always when I have the camera to hand.
There is no mistaking when they are around as they have quite a high pitched buzz compared to a bumble bee to my mind and also are much quicker moving off.
Also known as 'Bulb flies' and thought to have reached the UK as larvae in imported daffodil / narcissi bulbs hence this form of M.equestris name.
The image will enlarge.
Another shot form last month's trip with Steve.
I had the idea that the sun setting behind the Cuillin Hills taken from the Bealach na Bà on the Applecross peninsula would be a good way to end our day out in the west. Unfortunately the bank of cloud over Skye stopped that happening but I still fired off a few shots as the sun slipped out of view.
The nearby galaxy Messier 33 contains a star-forming region called NGC 604 where some 200 hot, young, massive stars reside. The cool dust and warmer gas in this stellar nursery appear as the wispy structures in an optical image from the Hubble Space Telescope. In between these filaments are giant voids that are filled with hot, X-ray-emitting gas. Astronomers think these bubbles are being blown off the surfaces of the young and massive stars throughout NGC 604.
NGC 604 also likely contains an extreme member of the class of colliding-wind binaries, as reported in a recent paper. It is the first candidate source in this class to be discovered in M33 and the most distant example known, and shares several properties with the famous, volatile system called Eta Carinae, located in our galaxy.

Erosion forms deep ravines in the packed earth of the badlands in Anza Borrego, as seen from Fonts Point overlook. Kevin and I started in Death Valley National Park and then drove south through Antelope Valley (previous post) and Joshua Tree, through the Coachella valley and on to Anza Borrego following the trail of the 2019 superbloom. I was struggling somewhat with compositions here so I finally decided to just embrace the raggedy erosion lines of sedimentary conglomerate (my geology-studying daughter has me finally learning the terms) leading down from the overlook. They were just catching the first rays of the rising sun and even though in harsher daylight they are pretty ugly, I found a certain rough beauty in the warmer dawn light. Of course I blew out the sun so I cut the top of the image off to let the aperture blade rays do the talking.
If you are ever in the area, Fonts Point is a soaring overlook with Ocotillo plants clinging crazily to the edges of these eroding cliffs, and is well worth the 30 minute drive from Borrego Springs. A river bed meanders through the badlands towards the Salton Sea. As an interesting aside for the curious or paranoid, the recent discovery of another fault line near the existing San Andreas fault that runs along the edge of the Salton Sea has raised speculation that this could be a likely location for the next "big one".
First experiments with a new form in the ever-evolving world of Pano-Sabotage photography that's been dubbed "MonitorPano". It's both a new turn for me and a return to a very old tactic I used in 2012 where I achieved coarse but provoking layers by photographing, with my Canon Rebel XS, my computers screen saver as it faded in and out between images in my photo files. The great thing was that the images didn't just click from one to the next like a slide show, they faded in and out over top of each other. There was always a "crossover" point where the two images would occupy the same amount of "presence" on the screen thereby becoming "fused" or "blended" ... in effect ... layered. A cruder version of Brian Enos Installation piece, "77 Million Paintings", perhaps, but using the same idea.

By the time Apple brought out the next Operating System, they'd taken out that scrolling slide show feature from what was then "iPhoto" and re-dubbed it "Photos". It always amazes me how the Silicon Valley geeks always "improve" things by taking out unique and wonderful features. Gotta mow it all down to sameness and uniformity, I guess. Unique features are seen as "mistakes".
Liz Mack has asked, "How long will it take for Apple to 'correct' the algorithms that allow for Pano-Sabotage photography ?"
MonitorPano, even though being hotly used right now and to great effect has actually been around quietly for a few years now. Don of the PANO-vision group was actually one of the first Pano-Sabotage artists to start "pano-ing" his desktop screen, and has often produced some very unique work with this method. Recently, Bill Smith, Paul Ewing and Liz Mack have taken it up with a vengeance with striking results.
"Graph ET 1" is the first finished piece that I created using the same technique the Paul, Bill, Liz and Don use. All of us in "PANO-Vision" learn a lot from each other and each of us makes invaluable contributions to the groups knowledge and technique base by that sharing. In PANO, as well call it for short, it's not about competition. We thrive by sharing. Each of us grows by contributing to an ongoing and easy exchange.
"MonitorPano" is achieved by setting one's cell phone camera on "Pano", clicking it on, while focusing on the desktop monitor and using the other hand to tap the arrow right ( or left ) key to quickly jump from photo to photo while the cell phone hand is pano-sabotaging the whole "pass". Tricky, and it takes some co-ordination, but it can be quite surprising what results.
This image was created for the PANO-Vision Groups Summer Contest, "PANO to the Metal".

Table Mountain is a flat-topped mountain forming a prominent landmark overlooking the city of Cape Town in South Africa. It is a significant tourist attraction, with many visitors using the cableway or hiking to the top. Table Mountain National Park is the most visited national park in South Africa, attracting 4.2 million people every year for various activities. The mountain has 8,200 plant species, of which around 80% are fynbos, meaning fine bush. It forms part of the Table Mountain National Park, and part of the lands formerly ranged by Khoe-speaking clans, such as the !Uriǁʼaes (the "High Clan"). It is home to a large array of mostly endemic fauna and flora. Its top elevates about 1.000 m above the surrounding city, making the popular hike upwards on a large variety of different, often steep and rocky pathways a serious mountain tour which requires fitness, preparation and hiking equipment.
They are predicting rain overnight and into tomorrow. We had been cool all day until the wind shifted. That brought in humidity and the cloud bank you see here started to form. We will most likely get a thunder shower overnight. They are not calling for severe weather.
This is what happens during the autumn months. We will keep getting changes in wind direction. From the northeast, it will be cool, from the southwest it will bring in warmer moist air and when they meet, depending on conditions, all heck can break lose. it can be anything from constant rain and windy to tornadoes and gale force winds.
