Letting the yard go in the backyard (and keeping weeds picked) has greatly increased the flowers growing and thus the insect pollinators

They are back in numbers in the Portland area and will winter here. I have been sitting near my bird refreshment center for several hours as the morning sun rises, and birds are letting me get closer than even a few days ago. Being able to see the fine details of the patterns and plumage make me a happy photographer!

Not letting go

 

Isn't that what we do

Fear for the unknown

Clinging us to the past, to what is

Maybe clinging us to what we hope for to happen

 

We find all kinds of excuses for not doing what we need to do

 

Hoping for quick fixes

They don't work very well, by the way...

They never last

Because You didn't decide

Others did it for you, or coincidences did it for you

 

Taking the steps out of whatever we should have stepped out of

We may get all frozen in our thoughts

Not having the safety net we think we need

We postpone and postpone

 

Sometimes we even get ill

The worry gets inside us and are stuck in our mind and body

 

Thoughts keep coming up like ghosts appearing and disappearing

Reminding you

"Wasn't there something I should have done?"

 

One single drop is the last drop you need

Letting the glass get full, flood over

We do that

We are human beings, it's in our nature

 

You need to be mature

Have done your thinking

Pros and Cons

 

Finally to see what you should do is a blessing

 

So let this frozen drop melt and be on your way

Swoooosch - off you go 😄

 

This photo became a Sundayspeech

I often wonder how photos speak to me - this one did for sure

 

Have a great Sunday!

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) seed head with half of the seeds already in the wind. Bluebird Estates, Alberta, Canada.

 

Taraxacum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. They are native to Europe and Asia, and two species, T. officinale and T. erythrospermum, are found as weeds worldwide.[1] The common name Dandelion (pronounced /ˈdændɨlaɪ.ən/ (DAN-dih-ly-un) is given to members of the genus and like other members of the Asteraceae family, they have very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret. Many Taraxacum species produce seeds asexually by apomixis, where the seeds are produced without pollination, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.

One of my favourite spiders, Jumping spiders, they look so sweet with those big eyes that look up at you she was very obliging, letting me take several photos

Letting my imagination get the better of me again!

Observed in Maria's Garden, New Jersey.

In return for letting the railway use my photos from the weekend I was offered a footplate ride. I'd have let them use them anyway but I was never going to turn down an odder like that! The footplate of this particular loco is incredibly small, I was stood about a foot away from the smokebox door and the heat was intense, but it was a great experience. I used my 15-30 lens so I could capture as much in the scene as possible. This gives the impression that the footplate was a lot bigger than it really is.

My new take on life... let it go... and live in the moment, because you never know what tomorrow holds. Let go of the past things that haunt you, but cherish the moments that fill your heart with goodness. Be all that you can be.

Live Life ... ♥

If this life is one act

Why do we lay all these traps?

We put them right in our path

When we just wanna be free

 

I will not waste my days

Making up all kinds of ways

To worry 'bout all the things

That will not happen to me

 

So I just let go of what I know I don't know

And I know I'll only do this by

 

Living in the moment

Living our life

Easy and breezy

With peace in my mind

With peace in my heart

Peace in my soul

Wherever I'm going, I'm already home

Living in the moment

 

I'm letting myself off the hook for things I've done

I let my past go past

And now I'm having more fun

I'm letting go of the thoughts

That do not make me strong

And I believe this way can be the same for everyone

Looking out from Plato's cave

In the Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales.

 

That is the actual James Bond Aston Martin DB5 as first seen in Goldfinger in 1965. Probably the most iconic and famous car in the world and likely priceless too. If you google that licence registration BMT216A, it will confirm that it also appeared in Thunderball, Golden Eye, Tomorrow Never Dies, Casino Royale, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die. Or you can see the registration here -

And now here it is on the Flickr page of old Magoo - who’d have thunk! A scoop or what? Here it has its latest modification to its front bumper - a guy in.a luminous orange jacket trying to take a photograph.

 

So how did old Magoo bumbling around with his white stick and who can’t tell a farmers truck from a pedal cycle happen to bump into it in the back of beyond on the Brecon Beacons, how did he know what it was and more importantly, is that the real James Bond behind the wheel?

 

So there I was on a very quiet mountain road in the middle of nowhere when I hear the throaty roar of a vehicle coming up behind me. The road isn’t wide enough for man and car so I step off to allow it through, but it pulls to a halt alongside.…

 

“You’re looking very official by the side of the road” Says James Bond. It puzzles me for a second and I realise he must be referring to my luminous coat. (I later realise he must have been looking for the camera crew and thought I was with them).

 

“Oh the jacket” I say “It’s so I can be seen by cars because I can’t see them” and I hold up my white stick. And then, listening to the sweet purr of the engine I say “That’s a beautiful sounding car you have there, what is it?

 

“An Aston Martin DB5” Bond says.

 

“Wow” says I “How old?”

 

“59 years” replies 007 without hesitation because if anyone would know he would, right? “It’s the James Bond car” he adds.

 

I wrongly presume he means ‘like the James Bond car’ not the actual car itself and so like an idiot I ask - “How long have you had it?”

 

“We are actually filming here for a couple of days” says James by way of explanation.

 

“Are you James Bond then?” I ask with a wry grin.

 

“Well, sort of “ he replies with a chuckle. I expect he was being covert. I’m stood there close enough to touch the car and am wondering whether or not this is Daniel Craig or the new Bond guy driving - I certainly can’t tell, the car is just a fuzzy haze to me and the driver non existent, when he politely excuses himself and drives off. I’m left wondering whether he was pulling old Magoo’s leg or whether this really was the real Bond car and then feel more than a little disappointed that I didn’t get a photo. Wouldn’t you?? Let’s face it, it’s not the sort of thing you expect is it?

 

I continue on my deflated way when after about half a mile I pass a group of people by the side of the road. There is absolutely never anyone here and even though I cannot see their equipment I presume it must be the film crew. I wander on thinking they must be waiting for me to walk on through so they can do the take, which means the Licence to Kill and his car must be up ahead somewhere - and sure enough, a couple hundred yards on I catch that sweet throaty purr again.

 

“Would you mind if I take a photograph of your car Mr Bond, so I can see it on the big screen when I get home?”

 

“Be my guest” says James. Realising I was probably holding things up and I would have only time for one shot I quickly took it and wandered up to his window and showed him the back of the camera and asked if it looked okay?

 

“Haha” Laughs the Licence 2 Kill “It’s right in the middle”. Well, that was good enough for me, a crackshot secret agent with such an eye for the ladies and who bumps off global super villains for fun should be able to judge a photo right? And after thanks, I wanders on me way, and when I was clear he must have got the ‘camera - action’ instruction because the pedal hit the metal and it leapt away towards the cameras with a glorious roar.

 

So was that the real James Bond, or another actor filling in for him? I have absolutely no idea, couldn’t see him at all - but I’ll go this far……it wasn’t Sean Connery or Roger Moore, I would have recognised those voices for sure…….

 

A big thanks to the photography gods for causing James Bond to stop and talk, because if he hadn’t I would have had no idea there was filming taking place and wouldn’t have got the shot - and a double big thanks to 007 for being sociable and letting me take the photo! If you see a tramp in a bright orange coat cluttering up the movie - that’ll be old Magoo……

Letting Go..takes time, you need time ..Take as long as you need..For some in SL its overnight..for others it's time..

All of a sudden it just hits you... it's time..Time to move on and close the door on the past..

 

How awesome is this song!!!
