The weather has been perfect for all the Waterlilies,
Yesterday did nothing in the garden, only fed the Koi and take photos.
Took a spin to the nearby farmland the other evening, hoping to find a nice location with an interesting foreground to capture the sunset.
Before taking off I consulted with the trusty Google Map and found this farm that contained a cluster of silos. It turned out the location had a few more farm equipment, scattered all over the place, making it a bit more of a challenge to get a good composition given the sun's setting position and the little time I had.
Nevertheless, I am happy to come back with a few usable images. The Farmland @ Blue Hour was taken 16 minutes after this one.
Thanks for your visit, really appreciate it; please be safe and enjoy your day!
PS: I just noticed that I had captured both the sunrise and sunset on this spring day, March 21st!

There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream,
The earth, and every common sight,
To me did seem
Apparelled in celestial light,
The glory and the freshness of a dream.
It is not now as it hath been of yore;
Turn wheresoe'er I may,
By night or day,
The things which I have seen I now can see no more.
But there’s a tree, of many, one,
A single field which I have look’d upon,
Both of them speak of something that is gone:
The pansy at my feet
Doth the same tale repeat
Whither is fled the visionary gleam?
Where is it now, the glory and the dream
This was taken from penny dreadful.author William Wordsworth . thank you to my friend Paula for letting me know... here is her amazing stream
Pučišća (Italian: Pucischie) is a coastal town on the northern side of the Island of Brač, Croatia. It is often listed as one of the prettiest villages in Europe and is known for its white lime stone and a beautiful bay.
Many of the buildings are built with local stone, and so are the numerous monuments which adorn the town, giving the village its distinctive gleaming white look. It was a privilege of the aristocrats and the stone masons to live at the waterfront of Pučišća. This, and the easy access to the white lime stone from the local quarries, gave Pučišća its look. The houses at the waterfront were spacious and wealthy and the higher you climb up the hill, the smaller the historic houses become. The photo shows one of such historic quarters in Pučišća, built uphill around the small church of St. Lucia (to the left). The houses have been lived in to this day.
Pure white limestone that was used to build the White House in Washington D.C. also came from the quarries near Pučišća on Brač. Long before that, the same white stone was harvested by the slaves of fourth-century Roman Emperor Diocletian and transported to Split to build his palace. The high quality Brač stone was also used to build the houses of parliament in both Budapest and Vienna as well as many other important buildings throughout Europe. In Croatia, the most significant buildings made of Brač stone are the Palace of Diocletian, the Cathedral of St James in Sibenik and the Cathedral of St Lawrence in Trogir, which have all been under World Heritage (UNESCO) protection.
The whole dynasties of famous Croatian stone masons were educated at the quarry near Pučišća during the Renaissance and Baroque period. The only school of stone masonry in Croatia is situated in Pučišće and the school has been successfully active for more than a century.
Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)
Emigrant Lake - Jackson County - Oregon - USA
Habitat : Lakes and Ponds
Food : Fish
Nesting : Tree
Behavior : Aerial Dive
Conservation : Low Concern
"Unique among North American raptors for its diet of live fish and ability to dive into water to catch them, Ospreys are common sights soaring over shorelines, patrolling waterways, and standing on their huge stick nests, white heads gleaming. These large, rangy hawks do well around humans and have rebounded in numbers following the ban on the pesticide DDT. Hunting Ospreys are a picture of concentration, diving with feet outstretched and yellow eyes sighting straight along their talons."

I have been overcome by the beauty and richness of our life together, those early mornings setting out, those evenings gleaming with rivers and lakes below us, still holding the last light.

The curve-billed thrasher can generally be found running rapidly from cover to cover or flying near ground level from bush to bush. However, this bird is not shy about being in the open. It is generally a forager on ground level but can be very aggressive in routing out potential competitors for food at feeders, such as the Inca dove and round-tailed ground squirrel. It will usually destroy any nest of cactus wrens. From Wikipedia
