It was a rainy morning and I managed to catch a couple of rain drops.

Or is it??? My smile is my smile but lately it has been a big mask to hide RL pain from really stressful event outside of SL. Sadly someone anonymously posted to a notorious website which deals with gossip about SL. I was the target of this person, I use that term loosely, stating my Flickr account was f***ing boring and I should learn how to use poses and other hurtful terms. I started this account as an escape and therapy from the very long lockdowns my home city of Melbourne Australia had to endure. I have learnt many techniques over the past 2 years of posting every day. Clearly that wasn't good enough for this anonymous critic. Sadly this critique has made me feel suicidal and not wanting to continue with this. I just hope that anonymous poster is happy, because I am not.

A cactus (plural: cacti) is a member of the plant family Cactaceae, a family comprising about 127 genera with some 1750 known species of the order Caryophyllales. The word "cactus" derives, through Latin, from the Ancient Greek κάκτος, kaktos, Cacti occur in a wide range of shapes and sizes. Most cacti live in habitats subject to at least some drought. Many live in extremely dry environments, even being found in the Atacama Desert, one of the driest places on earth. Cacti show many adaptations to conserve water. Almost all cacti are succulents, meaning they have thickened, fleshy parts adapted to store water. Cacti are native to the Americas, ranging from Patagonia in the south to parts of western Canada in the north.

Actually Saturday was Sundae!

 

Happy Ice cream what ever day it is!! :))

It's been in the news: "This is the first big partial eclipse to happen in the UK since 1999, and the next one isn't until August 2026, so this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity." - So all gear set up and waiting - hoping for a glimpse of that "once-in-a-generation" event...

BUT the weather didn't play by the rules where I live: Muddy skiess all morning... No sun to be seen, let alone the moon trying to cover it up...

Still, with all the gear in place, when the clouds went I decided to do a shot of the sun (background image - HDR'ed) and "post-processed" my moon in with Photoshop afterwards.

Ha: If you cannot rely on UK clear skies, create your own eclipse! ;-)

And life is grand.

And I will say this at the risk of falling from favor

with those of you

who have appointed yourselves to expect us to say

something darker.

 

And love is real.

And though I realize this is not a deep observation

to those of you

who find it necessary to conceal love

or obscure it as is the fashion.

 

And life is grand.

And I will say this at the risk of falling from favor

with those of you

who have appointed yourselves to expect us to say

something darker.

  

He is mostly observed in the mountains and the Atlantic Coast. For the first time I saw him in the fields near my house, a migrant for sure...

My husband ordered a bunch of electronic supplies online and when they arrived, I was almost as excited as he was, because they are so cool to photograph.

Howard Jones - What Is Love

www.youtube.com/watch?v=w34vnz_LEX4

  

I love you whether or not you love me

I love you even if you think that I don't

Sometimes I find you doubt my love for you, but I don't mind

Why should I mind, why should I mind

What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway

What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway

Can anybody love anyone so much that they will never fear

Never worry never be sad

The answer is they cannot love this much nobody can

This is why I don't mind you doubting

And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be

The door always must be left unlocked

To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you

And not to spend the time just doubting

Dedicated to my beloved granddaughter!!

It is better to have your nose in a book than in someone else's business. ~Adam Stanley

Life is a miracle, in all its forms.

Unstoppable, astoundingly creative, resilient but also so fragile and vulnerable.

We are its protectors and stewards.

Dunster is a village, civil parish and former manor within the English county of Somerset, today just within the north-eastern boundary of the Exmoor National Park.

There is a place in you

where there is perfect peace.

There is a place in you

where nothing is impossible.

What better to do on a cold wintry rainy day ... have some fun with this week's Monday Macro theme of abstract "What Is That"

 

The last of the fun macros taken today ... I think this last one will be my post for the group.

Odessa : "What is there?"

Smiles for Saturday. With a story that could make you smile. If you're a good guesser

For a change, this is a new (outside!) photo, taken just a few days ago at the wonderful Britzer Garten, one of Berlin's biggest and most beautiful public parks (please check my album for more "Britz bliss", if you like).

 

For better dynamic range, I've used exposure bracketing (three images), pre-processed the images in DXO PhotoLab (sharpness and DeepPrime denoising only), from which I directly went into HDR Efex Pro to combine the images. I'm trying to get away from the annual Adobe subscription, and combining images from an exposure bracketing series in HDR Efex instead of Lightroom is one step into that direction. Unfortunately, whenever I think I can finally leave Adobe behind for good they come up with improvements such as the new "supersize" function (now also available in LR), a ton of new presets for LR, and other interesting stuff (and I'm still used to the LR/PS workflow, and the layers in PS). Well, maybe I'll be ready next year ;)

 

Extra sliding was done in Color Efex, where I added some "Brilliance and Warmth" and a tiny bit of "Contrast Color Range".

 

Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, stay safe and have a nice week ahead!
