Thank you everyone for the favs, awards, awesome comments and invites! Means so much!!! Cheers to everyone!
I have no idea what this hummingbird is doing, but it sure looks like it fell off the perch! Normally I wouldn't include the feeder in the photograph, but this time I couldn't resist.
These teeny, seemingly fragile, very beautiful little Rosemary flowers are on a little plant in a 4" pot in the greenhouse. Is at max 1:1 magnification and also taken in aps-c, so effectively 1.5x, but with a 1.0 d.o.f. and a bit of a crop thrown in.
They were pretty awkward to photograph - I took some photos first and then uploaded in order to get an idea of what they were like, which didn't really help that much as even with the 20x was difficult to tell what was what on these pretty complex flowers, then I took a lot of various little flowers and angles but only a couple worth keeping. A bit hit and miss to say the least :^)

Life too hard? Hit the road. I really wanted to, but its a private road that leads down to the river so I had to refrain. To old to go to jail. ;) The covid 19 is affecting so many peoples behavior I avoid them like they are the plague. I prefer solitude.
I am taking a break from SL for a while, I let my temper get the better of me and did something I will always regret, Thanks to all my friends and followers, its been a blast. Thank you to Chase for the last year and I am sorry. Thanks to other people that have been a special part of my life, you know who you are. I am not sure if or when I will be back, keep sl fun. Love and best wishes Rachel Swallows-Stone XXXX

for a brief time at the beginning of the 1900s, the word ‘jackpot’ was associated with misfortune, hardship or being in trouble with the law
in his book, the cowboy, philip rollins used the phrase jackpot as an expression to signify a perplexing situation
in 1941, agnes morley cleaveland used the term in her book, no life for a lady...one of the characters needed to get “out of a jackpot”

We drove along the California coast on the iconic Highway 1 and stopped at the Bixby Bridge. A cloudy day makes for a more dramatic scene, what do you think?
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from three RAW exposures each, merged them, made the shadows a touch warmer, and the highlights a bit colder, then carefully and selectively pulled the curves. I also sharpened the image a bit, it is not totally sharp due to camera shake.

The moon was extremely high and bright that night and the incident in the capture looks a bit violent to me so I named it "Hit", but I had two alternative titles too: "Ouch" and "Shot". Not very romantic:( :)
By the look of his mud-tipped bill, I'd say this ruddy duck hit bottom. I guess that's to be expected. From what I read they dive to the bottom of a pond and filter mud through some plates in their bill to get at aquatic invertebrates, plant matter and the like. Not sure I fully grasp the physical mechanism for this filtering process. Back to this guy. He'll need to clean that mud off - that ridiculously blue bill is there to attract the ladies during the breeding season (which is now)
