O say, can you see
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hail'd
At the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars

"Freedom is not something that anybody can be given. Freedom is something people take, and people are as free as they want to be." - James Baldwin
Today was lovely. The weather was lovely. People are lovely. Loveliness is everywhere goddammit! Except in the mountain of essays I have to write tonight. Damn.
I made these wings myself - believe it or not, no shops anywhere in Buxton sell normal white feathers. So I went to the park, and found a goldmine of them! Just lying around!!! I am so happy with how they came out, I never want to take them off! I have lots of outtakes from this shoot, which I haved uploaded to our blog!
Oh, and that little cluster of houses in the background is my town! :) I am up on Corbar Cross, a big hill near my house!
This square has held various names over the years but now goes under the name of Freedom Square. It primarily commemorates the events of 26th May 1918 when in the aftermath of the 1917 Russian revolution, Georgia gained its independence. Three years later Russia invaded and once more regained power of the country.. Step forward to April 1991 and shortly before the collapse of the Soviet Union, Georgia once more declared independence. The 1991 events had been building up to this declaration since the 1978 uprisings. Many years later this square was the location for the attempted assassination of George W Bush in 2005. An Armenia threw a live grenade at both President Bush and the Georgian President Saakashvili. Thankfully both survived.
freedom equality Bałuty - Bałuty is a district of the city of Łódź.
The old part of this district in olden days was famous for its dangerous areas. Of course, there were more such places. The history of these areas and Europe left its mark on the city.

Old Glory is another favorite of mine from this performance.
Airshow season is kicking into high gear in the Midwest! I am looking forward to meeting some fellow flickr aviation photography buffs, seeing some great action, and capturing some new material!
Enjoy the weekend!

"In the 1970s, canola was created through traditional plant cross-breeding by removing two things found in the rapeseed plant: glucosinolates and erucic acid. Erucic acid was removed because it was believed to be inedible or toxic in high doses. The newly developed plant was renamed "canola" – a combination of "Canadian" and "Oil" (or ola) to make this difference apparent." From the link below.

I absolutely love the time of year when the fields turn bright yellow with the Canola flowers. The day before yesterday was the first day I had been out when I saw any fields with the crop fully in bloom. I have to admit that I don't like the smell of Canola, but the colour is so spectacular and pretty. In this shot, the sky is beginning to darken, ready to rain a little later.
These two old, wooden barns were part of a CPR Demonstration Farm. I have added a previously posted photo in a comment box below, showing the whole farm.
"The home, the barn, everything seen in this yard once served a rather unique and special purpose. Operating as a fully functioning “demonstration farm”, near Vulcan Alberta, and tied to the Canadian Pacific Railway, it was a show piece of sorts a century ago, promoting the region’s agricultural potential. Prospective settlers would be told where to acquire land and of course similar farm buildings, what crops to grow and how to do it efficiently, what equipment to purchase, what techniques to use and so on.
The CPR had a vested interest, of course, in the success of this endeavour. They’d profit both on the sale of these kit farms and then again, many-fold, on the resultant business brought to the railway through the moving of inbound materials needed by all those new settlers; and outbound agricultural products the area would produce. And the transporting of people in and out, all the stuff needed for new towns that would spring up, and any industry established there, they too all moved by railway. It was win-win for the CPR!"

The day before yesterday, 1 July 2017, was a great day, spent with friend, Pam. I picked her up just after 8:00 am and did a long drive in Southern Alberta. We saw our target bird - a Common Nighthawk, and all sorts of other things including plants and old barns. It took a round trip of 414 km to get the Nighthawks, but it was so worth it! Much further than I normally drive. Towards the end of our day, the rain arrived, accompanied by lightning streaks. This couldn't have been timed more perfectly, to wash off a lot of the dust that covered my car after 12 hours of driving hot, dusty roads! So welcome! We have another hot day today and the forecast is for very hot days for at least the next week. So far, the forecast is 33C for Friday, 35C for Saturday and 31C for Sunday.
It was such a thrill to see a Common Nighthawk / Chordeiles minor (a rather strange looking bird), as I had always wanted to see one actually lying on a fence post or wooden railing. People get such amazing photos of them like that, and that is what I was determined to find this summer. Last year, I had driven to this area in Southern Alberta, hoping to find one, but had been out of luck. Though I ended up with the one in the photo I posted yesterday, lying on a hard, metal railing that lacked character, I'm still happy as can be. Not only did friend Pam and I see this one, but there were three other Nighthawks there, too. Two of the others were also on a metal rail, but the fourth was on a fence post - not the best angle, but it was still nice to see a fence post perch. How close we came to missing them. I said I wanted to just check the first part of a small side road first, before continuing on the road we were on - and there they were! I had seen a nighthawk on maybe five different occasions over the years, but most were in flight and one was perched very high up in a tree. For Pam, this was the first time she had ever seen one, and she was so happy to see this lifer.
"On warm summer evenings, Common Nighthawks roam the skies over treetops, grasslands, and cities. Their sharp, electric peent call is often the first clue they’re overhead. In the dim half-light, these long-winged birds fly in graceful loops, flashing white patches out past the bend of each wing as they chase insects. These fairly common but declining birds make no nest. Their young are so well camouflaged that they’re hard to find, and even the adults seem to vanish as soon as they land." From AllABoutBirds.

I was so tired after driving such a long distance and it was a hot day - the temperature got up to 30C. I so rarely do such a long drive, and I've barely driven all winter and spring. It felt so good to actually get out on a long drive like this, and we saw all sorts of interesting things that we just had to stop and photograph - of course!
Every single time I go out with my camera for a drive, I never forget to be SO thankful to live in a country where I have the freedom and safety to go where I want, and to see such beauty. Thank you, Alberta and Albertans - and Happy 150th Birthday, Canada! Such a young country.
Natures Freedom's.

Two Seasons
A poem by Katie Gabrielle
The two seasons
are like a landscape
of powdered snow
decorating the world
just for you to see
Each season is
a new picture
and a brand new
way to look
at life.

Well, it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were build to last
Freedom Balloon Festival - Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina
Had a great time watching all of the hot air balloons yesterday! It was my first time ever being near a hot air balloon. I have actually never really seen one in person either. They were awesome! I love this shot of a pilot getting his balloon ready! The reflective light is really pretty!
Happy Memorial Day Weekend!
The freedom of shooting a portrait in an open space. What more open than the sea, right? If you combine this with a sky and clouds, you got yourself a very unique background. Many thanks to beautiful Donna for this pose. Sky is processed in LR6 from a single RAW. Next time I should remember to bring my flash.. Mahahual, Mexico
