This is in th e"Not Terribly good club" I heard when I got to Royal Park today there was a female Pink Robin hanging around the park. I finally found it, but could not get a clear shot of it. There's always tomorrow.

Is love blind by Kate E.

 

It has been said that real love is blind.

But, with that I simply cannot agree.

Love just helps us all to find

a sweetness that others cannot see.

 

Love sees the beauty deep within.

A gentleness that's not easy to show.

But, one you can see again and again.

A side that only you are allowed to know.

 

Real Love does not see imperfections.

Does not see shape, size, or color.

It relies only on their own interactions

knowing they never want to hear goodbyes.

 

No, love is certainly not blind

for it sees what others may miss.

We love from the heart, not the mind

sealing that love with a touch, or a kiss.

This is a shrine set in shallow water just south of Isola del Tinetto. South of Porto Venere, Cinque Terre. I couldn’t find out much about this statue but I imagine it is some sort of sea faring shrine.

This photo is from Marado [Mara Island]. Marado represents the southernmost point in South Korean territory. The island is about 30km from the southern port of Jeju and the trip by ferry took about 15-20 minutes. The island is comparatively small (approximately 0.3 square kilometers) and you can walk around its entirety at a leisurely pace in about 90 minutes. Marado is home to about 90 residents and "…has long been known for its population being composed of strong women and docile men." (Wiki). While there, we saw traditional "haenyeo" women divers actively working at their trade of free diving to gather seafood.

 

Sometimes I have the impression that they get to know me when we often meet in the forest.

Yes, it sure is, and this isn't some AI - generated bit of weirdness, either. This is located in what many consider to be the prettiest town in the country -- Westport, County Mayo. Can you guess what it is, and why there's a wrecked car near its base? (This image was originally posted a few years ago in black and white, so it may look familiar to some of you who have followed my photographic musings for some time.)

It's that time of the year when the bull gets turned out in the pasture with his "lady friends".We certainly hope its a love match-we'll find out next March...

This image is a reproduction of a photo of Bow Valley in Banff that I took in 1986 from the summit of Sulfur Mountain. Located in Alberta’s Rockies, Banff is one of Canada's most popular tourist destinations with more than four million people visiting Banff National Park each year. Banff is surrounded by Mount Rundle, Mount Norquay, Cascade Mountain and Sulphur Mountain. Near Banff, Lake Louise and Moraine Lake are among the most visited destinations in Canada. Located in the Ten Peaks Valley, Moraine Lake is considered one of the most beautiful glacier lakes in the world. In 1986, I remember vividly sitting on the edge of Moraine Lake and absorbing very slowly the remarkable beauty of this turquoise lake starting to crystallize in early October. It was magical and that special moment had a mystical effect on me!

Cette image est une reproduction d'une photo de la vallée de la Bow à Banff que j'ai prise en 1986 depuis le sommet du mont Sulphur. Située dans les Rocheuses de l'Alberta, Banff est l'une des destinations touristiques les plus populaires au Canada avec plus de quatre millions de personnes visitant le parc national Banff chaque année. Banff est entourée par les monts Rundle, Norquay, Cascade et Sulphur. Près de Banff, le lac Louise et le lac Moraine comptent parmi les destinations les plus visitées au Canada. Situé dans la vallée des Dix Pics, le lac Moraine est considéré comme l'un des plus beaux lacs glaciaires au monde. En 1986, je me souviens très bien d'être assis au bord du lac Moraine et d'avoir absorbé très lentement la beauté remarquable de ce lac turquoise qui commençait à se cristalliser au début d'octobre. C'était magique et ce moment privilégié a eu un effet mystique sur moi!

This is one that has been on my list for years and it didn't disappoint. Coming in at 200 feet wide it's the widest falls that I've seen yet and the first vertical block. From here it's hard to tell that it drops 43 feet, but the roar lets you know it. :-) The emerald water is caused by the Lewis river being born of an inactive glacier (from Mount Adams) so it doesn't have the silt like White or Puyallup and it is just stunning to see. I was here on a Friday and I kid you not, I didn't see a soul until I got back down here after hiking up to the other two drops. It was a bit spooky. :-)
