Edward Elgar and his bicycle. Hereford Cathedral.
The composer lived in the town from 1904 to 1911 when he was at the height of his popularity. In many ways it's ironic that this sculpture stands in the grounds of an Anglican Cathedral - Elgar was a Roman Catholic and his choral work, "The Dream of Gerontius" was based on a Roman Catholic text and caused some disquiet in the Anglican establishment.
Note: I chose this as my "photo of the day" for Feb 9, 2015.
*************************************************************************
I'm spending the winter months of 2014-2015 in a warm spot on the beach in Indialantic, FL (if I have Internet access, it doesn't matter too much where I'm physically located).
I'm trying to get up about an hour before sunrise every morning, and be out on the beach for a morning walk just as the sun peeks up above the horizon. I typically take 20-30 shots of birds and sand, water and sunrise ... but since many of them are very similar (if not identical), I'll try to restrict myself to uploading only one such photo a day ... Sometimes, though, I just can't figure out which one is best -- so I may upload a bunch of them, and let my Flickr friends decide which ones they like the best.
Note: most of these photos were taken with either my iPhone or my little Canon G7X pocket camera, so they aren't quite up to the level of quality that I would normally expect. I've managed to set the Canon so that it's shooting at 1/250th of a second and f/8 aperture, but it's not quite as crisp and sharp as I would like ... well, maybe the images will get better as time goes on and I figure out these little details...

i might have accidentally gotten a week behind on this project, oops. my garden has grown heaps since it was attacked by the gardeners so i got some ideas flowing. this was more of an experiment than anything but it's better than nothing. thank you for everything <3
Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's monumental sculpture Bottle of Notes soars nearly thirty-five feet and is the first public sculpture in the United Kingdom by these two internationally renowned artists.
Bottle of Notes is inspired by the history of Captain Cook, born in Middlesbrough featuring words from his logs as well as poetry built from tempered-steel echoing Middlesbrough's industrial heritage and continuing the legacy of the town's Ironmasters.

This image is the last in a series of three capturing the amazing sunset and "freaky" clouds in NYC one evening last weekend. If you missed the first two, you can check them out here and here.
This shot was taken just about 8 minutes after the previous one. The sky's color turned from deep orange to purple and red. The freaky clouds have all but disappeared. The joggers and business people who had previously stopped to look up and take pics with their phone cams have all departed to resume their journey home. It's too bad though because they missed this. The spectacular sunset and clouds were like rewards to compensate my travel woes earlier in the day.
I think this is a record for me - posting on three consecutive days! Of course, I'm sort of breaking my own rule of not posting the same type of scene/images twice or more in a row. Oh well...
Better on black.

الذكريات كلمة تحمل احداث السنين بل العمر كله
الذكريات كلمه لطالما ابكت الكثيرين
الذكريات كلمة فيها ما يفرح القلب وما يعيد الألام
الذكريات...الذكريات....الذكريات
كلمة ولكنها عن الاف الكلمات
قليله الحروف كثيرة الاحداث ما اقسى بعض الذكريات عند مرورها او تذكرها فقط
وما اجمل بعضها ولكنها قليله للأسف
صصوري ملك للجميع دون ازالة الحققوق
الصصورة الجايية عن تَخررج اختي زهررة
تتتخرجها بكرة ان شَاءء الله
23/6
تتخرج من تمهيدي ان ششاء الله
تتنتظر تبريكاتكم
Note from expert - Your ID is correct...a female. I used Lycaena dorcas for the species name because it looks like the name helloides no longer will apply to Purplish Coppers except on the West Coast...I stick with the Mountain Copper being Lycaena florus and in the San Juan Mts. the subspecies is sangremar but genetics suggests it as a distinct species-level copper.
