I was driving out of Kananaskis country (lots of trees) when I noticed that cloud. As I left the forest, and entered the rolling hills, that cloud grew bigger and bigger. I snapped a few pictures and then embraced myself as I drove back home, hidden somewhere in that mess. Needless to say, this was amazing to witness and an honour to capture.
I've learned that it doesn't matter how big your house is, apparently, it is not big enough. ^_^
Thank you everyone for the appreciation, time and comments!!
Side note: Ignore the grass and it's a house on the ocean.
"My work is loving the world.
Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird—
equal seekers of sweetness.
Here the quickening yeast; there the blue plums.
Here the clam deep in the speckled sand.
Are my boots old? Is my coat torn?
Am I no longer young, and still half-perfect? Let me
keep my mind on what matters,
which is my work,
which is mostly standing still and learning to be
astonished." ~ Mary Oliver
I can't tell you how much I LOVE this quote. Anyone who knows me would see me in that second verse ... lol, I'm no fashion plate ... just get me to the wildlife and outdoors!
Have a great day ... these baby elk charmed me so much as we saw many of them. These particular ones were in Yellowstone.

CP 8757, the Every Child Matters unit, leads a colorful consist East through Hammond, IN on a manifest.
I love them!
They were laughing so hard...all because I was laying on the ground to get this shot... apparently...in doggy poo! (all of which they knew, but didn't tell me until much later!) Glad I could make their day a little happier!

I thought the title rather clever, however, I would be interested if anyone out there found it disrespectful toward the Black Lives Matter Movement.

FR : Une petite photo intello et engagée ?
Surtout une photo inattendue, car j'étais en train de travailler la compo sur les passants de l'autre côté de la rue...
Le monsieur au premier plan est passé soudainement dans le champ, mais au bon moment pour faire une photo insolite...
Je ne saurai jamais ce qu'aurait été ma photo sans lui (ca semblait prometteur 😊) mais celle-ci est aussi intéressante...
Merci à lui !
Photo initialement verticale, juste recadrée en format carré sans rogner en largeur.
The skyline shot from 18th Street overlooking CN's Freeport Sub, and the Saint Charles Air Line was a must shoot on this recent trip to Chicago. With only a few freights to ply these rails a day, catching any westbound here had to matter.
Westbound CN M337, lead by a pair of BNSF ES44's, slowly trundle down the main on the near track as it curves out of the 16th Street interlocking just around the corner. Granted the right of way was overgrown, and the power wasn't anything to write home about, but a train is a train. I'll chalk this up as a win.
a little light on the matter.
this is the first time an amaryllis has actually bloomed a second time for me. it was an inexpensive one purchased at our local hardware store.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Portland Oregon boarded up after "Black Lives Matter" protests. PDX has now been boarded up for over three weeks. Uploaded on Juneteenth.
I have had the following quote on my mind the whole evening and a desire to share it; I hope it speaks to your heart as it does to mine. Be blessed!
Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.

I'm driving your car with you
Sleeping in the seat next to me like a baby
You twist and you turn
You're traveling fast like a bird in a dream
Look at it go
Look at it dance over the sky like a rocket
A love machine, a cinematic dream
So pure and it hurts
When the beauty is lost in the speed
'Cause everything matters to me
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
To me
You're part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark
You're a part of the morning and everything matters
And we are, an atom and a star
You're a part of the movement and everything matters
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
I'm watching a storm turn into form
In the clouds of the world like a burst
It dances and it twirls on the top of the world
It is good and it hurts
Look at it go
Look at it dance over the sky like a rocket
A teacher, a simulated dream
A cure, a cure for the hurt
And the pleasure you feel is real
You're part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark
You're a part of the morning and everything matters
And we are, an atom and a star
You're a part of the movement and everything matters
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
Quelque part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer
Les fleurs qu'on a cueillies
Part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer
Les fleurs qu'on a cueillies
Part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer

It is interesting to me how difficult times help us to evaluate priorities, bringing into focus things that matter most.
At a protestation on the front lawn of the Parliament Building in Ottawa Ontario Canada for the treatment and murders of countless indigenous children in the residencial school system run by the catholic church... What a shame... Its beyong words what the church did. no amount of apologies or money will repair what they did. All religions are scams for money and power. How many more has to die and suffer in the name of a god...
Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes. ~ Joan Winmill Brown

What Black Lives Matter Means (and Why It's Problematic to Say "All Lives Matter")
Saying that black lives matter doesn't mean that other lives do not.

What Does Black Lives Matter Mean?
Black Lives Matter is an anthem, a slogan, a hashtag, and a straightforward statement of fact. While it is not a new movement, the message is central to the nationwide protests happening right now. BLM speaks out against the police brutality and systemic racism that caused the recent deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Tony McDade and Breonna Taylor, as well as the thousands of violent incidents that happen to Black people that aren’t recorded, aren’t reported or aren’t afforded the outrage they deserve. At its most basic level, it calls for a shift in the statistics that Black people are twice as likely to be killed by a police officer while unarmed, compared to a white individual. According to a 2015 study, African Americans died at the hands of police at a rate of 7.2 per million, while whites were killed at a rate of 2.9 per million.

Today is the sesquicentennial of the signing of The Metre Convention by seventeen nations.
A metre matters. That little sentence is a handy reminder to not run down cyclists. Sadly, it originated from the death of Amy Gillett in a training accident. As part of the Australian women's cycling team, training for the Thüringen Rundfahrt der Frauen, she died as a consequence of a vehicle crashing into the training squad.
For the rest of us, metrication have been of lesser consequence — it's not life and death. Of those seventeen original signatories, only one has not implemented the system of weights and measures that are the most visible elements of the convention.
Unremarkably, today is also World Metrology Day. This rushed snapshot of one of my handy measuring tools is a placeholder to celebrate the importance of measurement in our modern world.
