Weymouth Harbour. A rare visitor to southern shores. This bird popped up in front of us within minutes of arrival - unfortunately, I hadn't prepared the camera settings and shot this one at 2000/1 - a lesson learned!
Thank you for taking a look at my images.
She let go.
She let go. Without a thought or a word, she let go.
She let go of the fear.
She let go of the judgments.
She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head.
She let go of the committee of indecision within her.
She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons.
Wholly and completely, without hesitation or worry, she just let go.
She didn’t ask anyone for advice.
She didn’t read a book on how to let go.
She didn’t search the scriptures.
She just let go.
She let go of all of the memories that held her back.
She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward.
She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right.
She didn’t promise to let go.
She didn’t journal about it.
She didn’t write the projected date in her Day-Timer.
She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper.
She didn’t check the weather report or read her daily horoscope.
She just let go.
She didn’t analyze whether she should let go.
She didn’t call her friends to discuss the matter.
She didn’t do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment.
She didn’t call the prayer line.
She didn’t utter one word.
She just let go.
No one was around when it happened.
There was no applause or congratulations.
No one thanked her or praised her.
No one noticed a thing.
Like a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go.
There was no effort.
There was no struggle.
It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad.
It was what it was, and it is just that.
In the space of letting go, she let it all be.
A small smile came over her face.
A light breeze blew through her.
And the sun and the moon shone forevermore…

The fact that children can make beautiful music is less significant than the fact that music can make beautiful children -
- Cherly Lavender
Music . . . can name the unnameable and communicate the unknowable. - Leonard Bernstein
Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue. - Plato
Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything. - Plato
Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. - Victor Hugo
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜

I spotted a Virginia Rail at Fernhill today - unusual enough as it is, but then saw the little rail underneath, learning the lessons of catching and eating a worm!
This image shows the gorgeous detail in the plumage on the upper body and head of the Lesson's motmot.
Motmots like to perch on a limb with good sight lines for spotting bugs or small rodents and lizards moving about. Once spotted, they swoop down to nab their prey in their serrated beak, then head back to one of their nearby, preferred perches. Once perched, they will often bash the insect/rodent/lizard to soften it up. Many bird species engage in this behaviour.
Like many birds with home territories, they are somewhat predictable in their movements. The individual pictured here lived on a property that was converted from a farm to a reasonably large arboretum/garden, and later into an eco lodge.
All decoration elements and Avatars were developed by Goran Osterham as part of the World of Skifija project for the second life environment.

So many silent sorrows
You never hear from again
And now that you've lost tomorrow
Is yesterday still a friend?
All the bridges we built were burned
Not a single lesson was learned
Everything that mattered is just
A city of dust
Covering both of us
Did you hide yourself away?
I can't see you anymore
Did you eclipse another day?
I used to wake up to the color of your soul
Did you hide yourself away?
Are you living through the ghost?
Did you finally find a place
Above the shadows so the world will never know?
The world will never know you like I do

At the request of the creators SL,
I made a Demo object and an additional script that allows other users to create their own versions of the landscape elements for the "Auto Season 12 months" from Skifija and this will work with the Time Manager from Skifija.
Now you can make objects "12 months Auto Season" for personal use, gifts and sale!
You can use this script for whatever objects and actions you want, including sounds, animations, etc.
The package includes:
1. DEMO! Skifija 12Months Auto Seasson Grass (Receiver)
2. script:! Skifija 12Months Grass (Receiver) for Creators
3. script:! Skifija 12Monts (command receiver)
4. "! Skifija Time Manager Auto Season 12 Months Landscape v.0.3" - You don't Can Modify and No Transfer this,
Users get it when they buy one of the products "! Skifija 12Months Auto Seasson"
This point assumes that you know Linden's scripting language (LSL).
If you don't understand what this is about, don't use it.

How it works?
The Time manager gives commands on an individual channel for each resident.
The object you created accepts commands using the "!Skifija 12Monts (command receiver)" script
and sends them to the "!Skifija 12Months Grass (Receiver) for Creators" script.
How can I help?
You can contact me with suggestions or questions (if it will be sent for goran Osterham to notecard).
Сondition:
You can transfer this script to the next owner with permission - NO modify, No Transfer or NO modify, No Copy.
Please note that all responsibility for the unscrupulous use of the script lies with you.
Have Fun!
First about the watch:
This is a vintage (mid 1970ties) Chinese wrist watch Seagull (海鸥) ST5-D (29J automatic movement). It came with original manual and original bracelet, but shown here on a steel mesh bracelet.
Nice silver pie pan dial.
The ST5-D was the first indigenous Chinese automatic movement, made by the Tianjin Watch Factory (天津手表厂).
That pocket dictionary used as a prop is not too good, but it has the character 表 at the right place for the photo.
Now for your Chinese lesson:
The character 表 biǎo has many meanings, more than given in that dictionary, most usage in a technical context is for anything with a dial. Depending what other characters it is combined with one gets the actual meaning.
Examples:
表带 biǎo dài watchband
手表 shǒubiǎo wristwatch
钟表 zhōngbiǎo clock
压力表 yālì biǎo pressure gauge
高度表 gāodù biǎo altimeter

Immature Red-tailed hawk entered territory nest of Bald Eagles
The hawk was able to fly away while I was watching (I enlarged the photos) and after that I didn't see any blood on its body, after the Bald eagle's claws, anything could have happened.
This holiday special edition for my Flickr friends ,Happy Halloween .
"Couronne de lauriers, j'arrive comme César sur le boulevard Barbès. Elle m'masse le dos à Château d'Eau, comme par hasard, t'as pas l'adresse. À l'inverse de la guerre et l'contraire d'un imbécile, j'suis vers Belleville, cité indécise. En vélo, ou pass Navigo 7 zones, en sandales, chaussettes jaunes
Pas d'gros mais de beaux mots, tes potos se sont trompés sur les totaux. Ils font des total, cassent des motos, savent pas que les selfies sont des photos. Ils rappent de la mort aux rats, s'croient à Gomorra, parfumeur sans odorat. En vrai, on est adorables, abordables, on peut être plus sympa qu'Matt Pokora"
