Great Horned Owl ~ Deerfield Beach, Florida U.S.A. ~ square format

 

*[A very experienced wildlife photographer once told me (when I was younger) to

always try and capture the eyes. The eyes tell the story. So that is what I try to do]

My humble opinion. Window light with silver reflector. I cleaned up his eyes digitally although they weren't too bad. Otherwise it is a mild edit and slight vignette because edges were bright.

Making the most of some regifted potpourri, a Pelagic Cormorant tests out its nest on Gull Island in Kachemak Bay near Homer, Alaska.

Traveling in the Arctic can be a humbling experience. Yes it’s often numbingly cold, windy and inhospitable for humans. The isolation of some of these Arctic places is also striking. When you encounter the largest land predator on Earth, at eye level, and he stares right into your eyes, you realize how unimportant you really are. We thought this enormous male Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) would be preoccupied with the member of his own species approaching from behind. Instead he fixed his gaze on us. A safe but humbling encounter.

I've always loved daisies in all their forms, but the daisies that appear, without fail, every year in my lawn are possibly my favourites. There's something very comforting and familiar about the humble daisy.

This humble cabin is beside Echo Park Road in Dinosaur National Monument. There are no interpretive signs at this site. Because it is just one mile from the Chew Ranch, it is likely that this was occupied prior to the construction of the ranch house in 1940. It is near the junction of Echo Park Road and Yampa Bench Road--a very scenic area.

Sheyenne River in the Sheyenne River Valley - Barnes County, North Dakota. 2/22

 

The river winds throughout the valley, hugging a few abandoned farmsteads. The North Dakota Fisheries and Wildlife has a few fish hatcheries down here, one being at Baldhill Dam where the river turns into Lake Ashtabula. Many waterfowl protected wetlands as well.

 

Personally, I love there are many historic or culturally significant sites in this area. Fascinating to research and explore.

My little live holiday tree...I'm sure it's anxious for it's move to the great outdoors -- hopefully will find a good home in a container on my patio :-)

HWW!

So glad that I notice this little bird is a frequent visitor. S/he was probably always there but I did not see her/him until last summer when I had to take pause and rest. So I have a particular fondness for this lovely and I think her/his eyes are beautiful.

Many of the houses in Bannock are small humble structures like this one. The town of Bannock thrived in the 1860's as a result of successful gold mining in the area. But the population of Bannock declined as gold and other minerals began to be mined elsewhere. In addition, the railroad went to a nearby town. Eventually the town became a ghost town. Due to the efforts of a few residents in the area, the properties were acquired by the state of Montana and made into a park for the purpose of preservation.

Mom said, we have to be humble .....

as she said that :

'The LORD upholdeth all that fall,

and raiseth up all those that be bowed down'

Psalm 145:14 (KJV)

  

The horse. Here is nobility without conceit, friendship without envy, beauty without vanity. — Ronald Duncan

 

I think the humble horse is my favorite subject matter to photograph. They are such beautiful creatures and they add a touch of romance to any landscape they're in. Ghost, the subject of this image, is my neighbor's horse. I love photographing him & I admire his free spirit.

God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God.

(1st Peter 5:5-6)

Humble Days

 

If you set before me a vintage bike

I’d floral it up and give it a start;

Busy as a bee I’ll clean off that rust

And add a few little spare parts.

I’ll take it down to the beach at night

And ride along the boardwalk

Where everyone will awe

At my garden art!

These images were all taken during a yearlong forced sabbatical from work due to Covid. Read about how that time changed me and my photography in my essay Luminous/Anonymous in On Landscape magazine found here www.onlandscape.co.uk/2021/10/bottomlands-luminous-anonym.... Thanks to @on_landscape for publishing the piece among the luminaries that regularly grace their virtual pages. #humbled #grateful #landscapephotography #digitalphotography #filmphotography #outdoorphotography

I came upon this scene and I was truly awe-struck by the beautiful light.

“Home. The word circled comfortably in my mouth like bubble gum, swished around sweetly soft and satisfying. Home. Try saying it aloud to yourself. Home. Isn’t it like taking a bite of something lovely?"

-Sol Luckman

I cannot remember many times in my life where I have felt so utterly weak, broken, and destroyed. I am weary beyond what I knew I could be. This process is painful and I don’t know why it has to be this way, but it is not always for me to know the why in the moment. Suffering is hard to understand and it often makes little sense to us. To me right now this doesn’t all make all that much sense, it just hurts a lot. But I chose to still trust in God knowing that He is faithful and good! O Lord would you keep me humble and dependent on You. Keep my soul and preserve my life, for my soul feels faint and my bones feel weary. My body feels like it is wasting away and my soul feels like it cannot push through anymore; yet, I will still chose to put my hope in God. For where else would I go, for You O Lord have the words of eternal life and it is in Your arms that I take refuge!

the irresistable carpet of early spring always seems to magic itself from nowhere.

Hold the door, say please, say thank you

Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie

I know you got mountains to climb but

Always stay humble and kind

When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you

When the work you put in is realized

Let yourself feel the pride but

Always stay humble and kind

 

Don't expect a free ride from no one

Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why

Bitterness keeps you from flyin'

Always stay humble and kind
