Knowing the signalling protocols of this area, the red lights say it all. No point waiting for a train here, there's nothing coming! Nice atmospheric morning though.
Knowing you , I glance and see
My solid friend , for company
In good times , and in Wintery
My leafless , loyal buddy!

"Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape."
- Bell Hooks
Such an awesome tune....
As you know, I had work done at home
While putting stuff back, and throwing out tons ;) I came across this small brown package
Unopened, addressed to me, from a couple years ago, from my son :))
I open it, and voila....two small lenses for my phone :D
Guess I had asked, and he got them for me, but they got lost somehow?!
Gee...I don't know :(
So I took them out and went for my early morning walk today
This is taken with the macro part of the lens
The things you find when you're not looking LOL
Have a lovely day, sweet friends
And, as always, thank you
Love

Not knowing what lies ahead is the worst part of this confinement; all I can do is trust in Providence and hope for the best. This photo is from my archive of travel photos, this time of Pacific Beach in Washington state.

♫♪ Music for the image: Knowing Me, Knowing You
Knowing Me, Knowing You
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
We just have to face it, this time
(This time, this time) we're through (we're through)
This time we're through, we're really through
Breaking up is never easy, I know, but I have (I have to go) to go
(This time I have to go, this time I know) knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do
Memories (memories)
Good days (good days)
Bad days (bad days)
They'll be (they'll be)
With me (with me)
Always (always)
In these old familiar rooms, children would play
Now there's only emptiness, nothing to say
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
We just have to face it, this time
(This time, this time) we're through (we're through)
This time we're through, we're really through
Breaking up is never easy, I know, but I have (I have to go) to go
(This time I have to go, this time I know) knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-ha)
We just have to face it, this time
(This time, this time) we're through (we're through)
This time we're through, we're really through
Breaking up is never easy, I know, but I have (I have to go) to go
(This time I have to go, this time I know) knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

Without knowing it, he had constructed a gigantic vertical zoo, its hundreds of cages stacked above each other. All the events of the past few months made sense if one realised that these brilliant and exotic creatures had learned to open the doors.
― J.G. Ballard, High-Rise
I went for a quick drive through downtown Vancouver the other day and made a couple of stops to photograph the architecture. This is West Pender Place.
blessing to you and your loved ones. let the new year bring peace and happiness and shower you with success.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you directly without problems or pride:
I love you like this because I don’t know any other way to love,
except in this form in which I am not nor are you,
so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,
so close that your eyes close with my dreams.
-Pablo Neruda

Knowing a bit more about photography makes it easier to understand how and why some oil paintings, say the impressionist, abstract or even watercolour paintings, came into being.
"A beautiful closeup of delicate orchid blossoms and a kaleidoscope of background colors. Great depth and soft light."
A review by Flickr friend/Connoisseur Gertrud Klopp
Knowing that I was shipping my camera off today to be cleaned and calibrated, I had to get out yesterday.
Being "camera-less" for the next few weeks brings about an uneasy feeling of dread...or maybe it's just the holidays!
...without knowing it is not fish they are after.
- Henry David Thoreau
Thoreau could have said the same about Photographers. A day out in Nature's Beauty is good for what ails you.

Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery
Founded in 1917, Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery provided fresh trout to the Sierra Nevada region for nearly a century.
As one of the first-ever fish hatcheries, Mt. Whitney is a representation of the region’s rich culture and history.
Though the hatchery is no longer used to hatch fish, the staff organize tours, fish feeding, and wildlife interpretation exhibits.
Inspired by the surrounding mountains, the hatchery was built to last. Construction started in late March of 1916 with the goal of completing the project in the spring of 1917. With the help of local builders, Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery opened its doors in 1917.
From day one, the hatchery boasted unmatched quality and quantity. The first trout that were hatched were from eggs collected at Rae Lakes. After collection, these eggs were transported from the collecting station to the hatchery via mule train.
During the spawning season of 1918, the hatchery staff collected golden trout eggs from Cottonwood Lakes for the first time. As the official state fish of California, Golden Trout is an impressive but rare sight. The hatchery’s golden trout hatching program was the sole source of this fish throughout the Sierra Nevada.
One final piece of information: the Hatchery was named for Mount Whitney, which is located a few miles to the south. Mount Whitney is the highest mountain in the contiguous United States... with an elevation of 14,505 feet (4,421 m). Mount Whitney is only 84.6 miles (136.2 km) northwest of North America's lowest point, Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park, at 282 ft. (86 m) below sea level.

Knowing this guy was coming so I busted out the door to get a nice picture of him in last golden hour light, the sun was in the perfect spot for this shot and I was getting excited then the sun started setting and this guy was still no where to be found.... Even tho he was close on ATCS as the sun was just about to dip behind the trees and disappear for the day he finally showed up and the last sliver of light made a somewhat moody shot as he makes his way north.
I started out not knowing what I was doing in this picture...AT ALL...after some time, the pieces fell into place ...funny how that happens...a bunch of unexplained things turn into one beautiful symphony...

From a foggy morning on the back deck.
Note: Last January 2022, I asked for help and a Flickr support hero removed my account from the Explore algorithm. I feel more sincere and in the moment.
The capture looks far more calm and peaceful than it was! Standing on the rock edges and having waves threatening to sweep me into its deep blue flow it somehow did not deter me from my obsession of taking that shot...as I new where I had to stand.
Knowing a piece of this wonderful country...its historical heritage, its culture, cuisine and mix of many people...I thank Portugal for the reception (December 2019).
I loaded memory cards with about 700 photos, but I will try during this period to download the ones that I liked the most, I hope you enjoy them.
(of the series: trip to Portugal)

Not knowing when the next wave is going to hit you, perhaps is your best chance to stay positive. The only way to survive is battling back even if you are feeling down.
Shooting with a GoPro Hero is a totally strange experience for me. Being an optical view finder guy, I have never gotten used to compose a shot with electronic view finders on my mobile phone, or even my Powershot S100. Now, imagine shooting in front of your subjects without using your hand, and instead, strapping and composing the camera with your head. You only get to see the results after pulling still frames out of a long video recording. This is weird and totally out of my comfort zone, but at the same time I feel this as another challenge to get something unique and fun.
Knowing when to walk away is wisdom,
Being able to is courage,
Walking away with your head held high is dignity....
