Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
A pleasant summer afternoon on the Mississippi watching the Jonathan Padelford cruise past St. Paul, Minnesota.
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" for the 11th of January is "anything with A", where a picture of something (person, animal, plant, object) that begins with the letter A is required. Thus, I have opted for some beautiful Jonathan apples, which I photographed in the Nightingale Orchard a couple of years ago, when I visited the town of Wandilligong in provincial Victoria. These beautiful red apples were just too good to pass up on! I hope you like my choice of the theme for this week, and that it makes you smile!
Jonathan is a medium-sized sweet apple, with a touch of acid and a tough but smooth skin, good for eating fresh and for cooking.
The Nightingale family has been growing crisp, juicy apples in the Wandiligong Valley and alpine surrounds for over 60 years. Four generations on, the Nightingale family have five orchards: two at Wandiligong located 5 kilometres from Bright, one in the Buckland Valley just below Mount Buffalo, one at Stanley, and one in Batlow in southern New South Wales.

I can't wait to get back here with my newer 14-24mm lense as this is quite the hike to get to.

Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him
There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
And the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the Son God will make for your way
And we dance
To a whispered voice
Overheard by the soul
Undertook by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it
While the sand
Would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is timeless
While the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way
Neil Diamond
Jonathan Livingston Seagull
'“See here, Jonathan,” said his father, not unkindly. “Winter isn’t far away.
Boats will be few, and the surface fish will be swimming deep. If you must
study, then study food, and how to get it. This flying business is all very well,
but you can’t eat a glide, you know. Don’t you forget that the reason you fly is to
eat.”
Jonathan nodded obediently. For the next few days he tried to behave like
the other gulls; he really tried, screeching and fighting with the flock around the
piers and fishing boats, diving on scraps of fish and bread. But he couldn’t make
it work.
It’s all so pointless, he thought, deliberately dropping a hard-won anchovy
to a hungry old gull chasing him. I could be spending all this time learning to fly.
There’s so much to learn!
...and for my pleasure
Jonathan Livingston Seagull is the boy in the front. He has one good leg and one leg without a foot (just a stump). He started coming around for breakfast 4 years ago. He eats, then takes off for the day. This year he has a girlfriend (in back).

Il piccolo e anticonformista Gabbiano Jonathan riesce ad intravedere una nuova via da poter seguire, una via che allontana dalla banalità e dal vuoto del suo precedente stile di vita, e comprende che oltre che del cibo un gabbiano vive " della luce e del calore del sole, vive del soffio del vento, delle onde spumeggianti del mare e della freschezza dell'aria.
dal libro "Il gabbiano Jonathan Livingston" di Richard Bach
Skybird (Neil Diamond)
Make your sail
And every heart
Will know of the tale
And head for the farthest shore
Songbird
Make your tune
For none may sing it just as you do
And make your song be heard
Look at the way I glide
Caught on the winds lazy tide
Sweetly how it sings
Rally each heart
At the sight of your silver wings
Skybird
Skybird
Night bird
Find your way
For none may know it just as you may
Seek out your harbor of light
Let your song be heard
Rally each heart
To the sight of your silver wings
Skybird

It was a pleasure to see Jonathan Safran Foer at Printer's Row Lit Fest. I just finished his newest novel, Here I Am, a couple of weeks ago. Of course, everyone takes away different things from literature but I liked how he explored human choices, the sense of a Jewish American identity and the differences between Jewish Americans and Israelis, and also the sense of family.
The novel is really complex in it's sense of character development and the way the plot shapes these characters in how they react. In conversation, he talked about the idea of not truly knowing how you'll react until that even occurs. He also spoke about being less terrified over the Trump administration at this point but how he first felt.
As a vegan, I enjoyed how Foer mentioned that he is raising his children vegetarian and how, when some ask him how he can force his own personal choices onto children, he would suggest how could they raise their children as carnivores...that either way you are making that choice. I thought that was interesting. I still haven't read Eating Animals, a nonfiction work even though I have read all of his novels. However, I don't think I am really the person who needs to read Eating Animals as I'm already vegan having done enough research about decreasing methane gas and maximizing land use to minimize world poverty. I also have a fondness for animals and (as I've said since I was 13), if I wouldn't eat my cat, why would I eat another living thing that can feel pain?

“Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding. Find out what you already know and you will see the way to fly.”
― Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull
Paper planes; they are possibly the simplest form of flight with wings. And when I think of flying, I think of Jonathan Livingston Seagull. The courageous gull who taught me to see beyond just what my eyes show me and to aim for the skies.
Another great Flickr meet today. This is Jonathan (K_iwi). Please take some time to visit his stream, he has got some wonderful stuff there :-) Have a great weekend.
