Part of Frank Gehry’s wooden staircase in the Art Gallery of Ontario. Great to see his artistic contribution to his birth place.
I still remember on this morning :-) It was a very special atmosphere in this woods! My dog Zoe and i have enjoyed it :-)

Been outdoors for some shooting. Somtimes it doesn`t need much to enjoy the Beauty of Nature. Quite the contrary makes often the difference. Getting the focus on the puristic small things in nature is a good training for your mindfulness. This blossom almost looks like there is a light turned on inside. I captured the moment when the sunlight met the blossom.
Thank you for visits, comments and favs!

For my Mother on Mother's Day 2023.
I wish all mothers a happy day today. They often do not realise how much they are a guiding light in our lives, shaping our hopes and dreams from the earliest of days. Today is particularly poignant for my Mum. This is her first Mother's Day in 67 years that she has not shared with my late father. Hard to believe it has been six months already since he died. You are loved Mum.
Yesterday evening we went out for a family walk in a field with cuckooflowers. The wind was gone and the sun was breaking through. Most butterflies opened their wings for getting some last sunlight and i was able to take a few images.
I also discovered two orangetips on one flower :-) This morning i went back and it costs me two hours for getting an acceptable image in poor light conditions and a lot of wind. I post that one later.
Thanks everyone for visiting my stream and i hope you don't get bored of all the buterfly images.

Protea is both the botanical name and the English common name of a genus of South African flowering plants, sometimes also called sugarbushes or fynbos. The family is Proteaceae. In local tradition, the protea flower represents change and hope. The extraordinary richness and diversity of species characteristic of the Cape flora are thought to be caused in part by the diverse landscape, where populations can become isolated from each other and in time develop into separate species. The main vectors responsible for the transfer of pollen in protea cultivation are birds, insects, and wind. Some Protea species exhibit both self-pollination and cross-pollination as a method of reproduction. Cross-pollination is preferred, though, as a method of reproduction because it provides genetic diversity in the population. When cultivating proteas, breeders use hand pollination as a controlled method to transfer pollen from one flower to another. Proteas usually flower during spring. The general structure of their flower heads consists of a mass of flowers on a woody receptacle. The ovary is protected by the receptacle, thus is not seen when looking at the flower, but the anthers are present at the top of the flower, which can then easily transfer the pollen to the vectors. 11113
Ever changing light!
Mornings like this one justify why I sometimes just setup the tripod and stay rooted to the same spot for sometimes over an hour.
Watching the blue hour tones give way to yellows, oranges and reds until the sun rises and shows the natural greens of the countryside and blue from the clear sky!
The rolling mist just adds some lovely atmosphere and mood to the conditions around!
