Not quite a Constable painting but it was taken in Dedham, where the great master lived and created most of his masterpieces.

I had my Nikon resting on the picnic table and snake just slithered on by it and down the other side of the table.

A mulberry on our tree. We have already picked quite a few but a few remain still to ripen.

For the Macro Mondays theme: fruit. Width 2.5 in.

HMM and happy new week!

The White Ibis can only hope for some shrimp scraps from this juvenile Reddish Egrets catch.

" We know full well there's just time

So is it wrong to toss this line?

If your heart was full of love

Could you give it up?

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go, make us special

Don't give me up

Don't give

Me up

How unfair, it's just our love

Found something real that's out of touch

But if you'd searched the whole wide world

Would you dare to let it go?

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go, make us special

Don't give me up

Don't give

Me up

'Cause what about, what about angels?

They will come, they will go, make us special

It's not, about not about angels, angels ... "

BIG storm over Barcy. Shot this a while ago just before it broke. In the middle of it as I post. Welcome relief from the heat.

Honesty

.....the ONLY policy!!

Honesty (Lunaria) - in my garden and in my heart. With the latter, unlike the former, it doesn't just appear in spring, there are no stages, no tweaking, no compromises and no exceptions, it is a guiding Light, Take it or leave it.

In the times of inversion and great deceit in which we live, a world where lies are the accepted norm, from the very top down and throughout all media, then speaking the truth is considered a subversive act ..... or at least it soon will be.

It is an interesting contemplation that honesty and truth are not necessarily synonymous. Truth by definition is honest, but without honesty that which is true can be difficult to discern.

This flower also has lovely papery white seed pods that the sun shines through and illuminates in autumn.

Not me :)

This was taken in the city of York I liked the little bridge and the reflections.

Oddly enough I have no idea what the bridge is called nor do I recall exactly where I was in the city when I took the shot . Some of you will know York well I think this was taken somewhere near the Merchants Adventurers Hall . Its definitely not Venice

THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED

Not for us humans, but at least for the squirrels in the Bürgerpark Bremen.

Played around with the levels and introduced a little radial blurring to create this. One of the dodgy shots my 28-75 was producing all morning!

" You are not alone

I’ve been here the whole time singing you a song

I will carry you, I will carry you

I know you can’t remember how to shine

Your heart’s a bird without the wings to fly

Is anybody out there?

Can you take this weight of mine?

Is anybody out there?

Can you lead me to the light?

You are not alone

I’ve been here the whole time singing you a song

I will carry you, I will carry you... "

Mike is breaking up a beaver barracade using a rope and metal hooks. The beaver built this barracade but Mike broke it up because it was blocking the passage way for the kayakers.

Not the first to be seen this year but the first one I have photographed.

Arches National Park in Moab, Utah is full of unique and photogenic geologic formations. Beyond the park's namesake formations, there are several reefs, buttes, balanced rocks, and otherworldly sights.

This rock. precariously balanced on a spire atop one of the reefs along the main park road is not, to my knowledge, a named formation, but it is approximately a half-mile from the three closely grouped spires known as the gossips. To my eye, this formation has the appearance of a proper, though somewhat stiff, woman looking off into the distance as if annoyed by the gossipy sisters down the road.

The second park I visited (though my day in Canyonlands National Park was photographically tangential at best) among Utah's vaunted Mighty 5 National Parks, Arches is the spot that spurred my interest in travel and landscape photography. If you get the opportunity to visit Moab, I absolutely recommend several days here.

Since 2 years now I moved away from Adobe Ransonware, I am wondering if I should go back. Sometime I feel On1 is not rendering image like LR/PS was doing. For now I save 16$ a month for 2 years. May be I should do a trial an see where LR/PS are now, I still can use ON1 as a addon.

Not sure if LR has now the luminosity mask like ON1.

but to meet you on a hill.

Not welcome.

A red tailed hawk greeted rudely by a peregrine falcon, on a cloudy morning (the Pacific Ocean is in the bg).

The red tail landed in the peregrine territory and was quickly attacked by both resident falcons. The hawk left, got away unharmed this time but I've seen the peregrines take down the much larger hawk.
