Have a great Hump Day Wednesday Y'all..:)

A father is neither an anchor to hold us back,

Nor a sail to take us there,

But a guiding light whose love show us the way.

This is my cat, Bubbles doing his Lee van Cleef impression! ; 0))

GUIDING LIGHT – FOY VANCE

 

Bubbles in the Autumn garden

is unimpressed with the Indian Summer

he dons an Autumn/Winter coat

to keep his nether regions warm in slumber

thick fur to keep him feeling cosy

but now he says it's far too hot

and everything in the garden's too rosy

birds nesting in the chimney pots

where is the rain and wind and storms

he is a Maine Coon after all

he'd loved to see a bit of snow

he's unused to Summer in the Fall

he looks at me like Lee Van Cleef

slanted eyes like in The Good The Bad & The Ugly

sometimes he bares his pearly white teeth

but he always sees the good in me

he saves me from the bad in life

the ugly things that I don't see

protects me from myself sometimes

he's like an angel watching over me

he follows me around the garden

does not like his portrait taken

pulls funny faces that make me laugh

tells me when I'm being mistaken

don't take a picture of me; take the bees

he tells me with a swish of his tail

so big it looks like another cat

behind him on his daily prowl

I'm not an actor he tells me now

stop calling me Lee Van Cleef

but I can't help my laughter somehow

as he turns on a fallen leaf

quick on the draw just like in a Western

but he says he doesn't like Spaghetti

he would rather be likened to Clint Eastwood he says

or an actor like Victor Spinetti

I ask him now if he would like some treats

as he rounds me up to go indoors

believing I've escaped from the house like a pet

he leaps towards me with a bound of all four paws

his paws are soft; he never shows his claws

he is my gentle giant from Maine

he bounds across the slippery kitchen floor

skids across so happy in his own domain

He has me wrapped around his little finger

I dote on him and his wishes are my command

he sits on my lap until my legs ache

paw pounds me until I give into his demands

he can count to at least five

that's the magic desired number of treats

if I only give him three or four

he waits and will not eat

until I make them up to five

and then he opens his eyes wide

I love my Bubbles; he's my “little” darling

I'm lucky to have him always by my side.

 

Happy Caturday my friends!! : 0)

Unfortunately due to the day’s events we arrived at the location at night and it was still windy and raining. Once we arrived facing the lighthouse we were lucky to find the the wind and rain were hitting our backs so sheltered the lenses. As the rain clouds moved off into the distance the lights from the coastal towns created what looked like a halo across the Tor Bay coastline. Sometimes luck can be on your side even in dark and dreary conditions !

 

Nestled on the rugged cliffs of Anglesey, Wales, this lighthouse stands as a timeless sentinel against the vast expanse of the Irish Sea. For centuries, it has guided sailors safely to shore, its light piercing through the darkest nights and fiercest storms. The winding path leading to the lighthouse symbolizes the journey of life, filled with twists and turns, yet always leading to a place of safety and guidance. This iconic structure not only serves as a navigational aid but also as a reminder of resilience and hope for all who visit.

Even Barbie, with her perfectly coiffed hair and an impressive resume of dream jobs (astronaut, vet, cupcake chef—what can’t she do?), needs a moment of reassurance now and then. After all, even a gal living her best life in a pink mansion with a pool might occasionally steer her convertible off course. That’s where her pink lighthouse steps in—a beacon of hope for Barbie-sized existential crises. Its glowing light says, "Hey, relax, girl. We’ve got this." It’s less about storms and more about those days when you accidentally mismatch your stilettos or your Malibu dream house Wi-Fi goes down.

 

Security for Barbie isn’t about braving hurricanes; it’s about staying fabulous through life’s little hiccups. A lighthouse is the ultimate signal to pause, adjust your tiara, and sparkle forward. Because let’s face it—if even Barbie needs a guiding light sometimes, the rest of us are definitely allowed to lose our way, too. Just remember: whatever happens, always accessorize appropriately for the journey.

"East Vows Beacon, a silent sentinel perched upon the rugged coastline, exudes a sense of timeless charm. Standing at this historic beacon during the magical 'blue hour,' I witnessed nature's tranquil beauty unfold. The long exposure capture embraced the ethereal essence of this moment, with soft hues painting the sky and the sea. As the beacon's guiding light pierced through the night, a serene atmosphere enveloped the surroundings. This blend of history, natural splendor, and the captivating allure of the 'blue hour' created an experience beyond words. #EastVowsBeacon

The entrance to Liverpool's Central Library in William Brown Street.

Well the road is wide

And waters run on either side

And my shadow went with fading light

Stretching out towards the night...

As the marine layer crept in, I just had a feeling that the light from the Umpqua River Lighthouse would be awesome...

Captured in the serene and picturesque Anglesey, Wales, this image showcases the majestic lighthouse standing tall on a rugged cliff, surrounded by the misty sea. The winding path leading to the lighthouse adds a sense of adventure and tranquility to the scene. The soft waves crashing against the rocks below create a mesmerizing contrast with the solid structure of the lighthouse, symbolizing guidance and safety amidst nature's raw beauty.

"The Barns Ness Lighthouse revealed its captivating allure during the golden hour. As the sun dipped below the horizon, a warm yellow glow embraced the coastal landscape. The low tide revealed intriguing textures on the beach, including a beautiful water puddle that served as a mirror to the lighthouse's radiance. It was a moment of serene beauty, where nature's elements harmonized in perfect balance. The lighthouse stood tall, its beacon a guiding light in both the physical and metaphorical sense. A scene that whispered tales of maritime history and filled my heart with a sense of wonder. #BarnsNessLighthouse #GoldenGlow #LowTideReflections #CoastalSplendor #GuidingLight #LighthouseBeauty #SereneMoments #Nature'sBalance #MaritimeHistory"

A dark and dramatic sky one afternoon over Napier and the Art Deco Waiapu Cathedral tower stood out above the city with its neon cross.

 

I've never seen a neon cross on a place of worship before (this one even changed colour every minute or so)...and it certainly provided a bright beacon of light for the faithful as the menacing storm clouds rolled in.

Bodie Ghost Town

 

Bodie, California-

Bodie became a boom town in 1876 after the discovery of gold; by 1879 it had a population of 5,000–7,000. The town went into decline in the subsequent decades and came to be described as a ghost town by 1915.

 

Still on old files is I'm lacking inspiration at the moment....

Perch Rock lighthouse in New Brighton on the Wirral,

Thanks for looking,

Chris.

There's something about the light at this time of year that has my constant attention.

Finally got up early to go out for a morning shoot. I was not disappointed in this location. Single shot with tripod.

I will be your guiding light.

As amateur, we always ask how to improve our photography.

 

Many have said practice, practice and practice more. So shoot more (explore, experiment, exercise) and shoot less (be more critical on your subject and ask questions why, how, what etc before you click the shutter).

 

It may be useful to find a guiding light on your road of photography. Try to learn from a great master in photography. Study the works, experiences or teachings from the masters that you admire.

 

Or you may find a mentor. He/she may not be a photographer. Photography is like life. You need to learn more than just the how-to techniques for photography. A mentor we are talking here is not a person who teaches you Photoshop, or the one who shows you the rules of composition. Instead he/she would be someone who leads you to more questions about yourself and questions about the world (and he/she may not give you the answers).

 

So go and find the guiding light for you.

 

This is the lighthouse I saw when I was en-route to Cristo Rei in my Lisbon vacation this year.

 

Happy Monday and great week ahead!

When I die I want to be a rock star or live a rockstar who loves me back. This is what I want. Muse singing Guiding Light. It is so powerful and my favorite song from them. I want to be with someone who had a rockstar life but a family value heart. And I know there are some out there like that.
