Now my cohesive style week has ended, the desire to play bold became too big.
Still leaves remain on the trees, although it's probably only a few weeks left before the dark November takes over.
Having used a picture from the archive, photographed a foggy day, and with all the wet air, it's hard to get it all sharply, luckily there are groups on Flickr with digital paintings.
Have a wonderful Friday all the nice Flickr friends.
You are the source of my inspiration!
For Fence Friday. Happy FF!

"Now take me to other side
Little bitty blues bird flies
And gray clouds, or white walls, or blue skies
We gon' fly, feel alright!"
Now the commonest and most widespread UK bird of prey. The buzzard is quite large with broad, rounded wings, and a short neck and tail. When gliding and soaring it will often hold its wings in a shallow 'V' and the tail is fanned. Buzzards are variable in colour from all dark brown to much paler variations, all have dark wingtips and a finely barred tail. Their plaintive mewing call could be mistaken for a cat.
What they eat: Buzzards tend to eat small mammals, birds and carrion. Even earthworms and large insects when other prey is in short supply.
Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it’s much appreciated 👍
Now, it might be the Severn, or it might be the Avon, Tewkesbury hosts both lovely rivers - no wonder it suffers a lot of flooding! The path we walked along the riverside, was coated in mud - just as though the river had just gone back within bounds, though we were assured there had been no recent incident!

So now we finally get to the picture why I came to San Quirico D'orcia in Tuscany and why I'm standing here in the field in a pretty icy wind for more than an hour. With what feels like a 10 cm thick layer of loamy earth on and under my boots, which luckily I brought with me.
By the way, the name of this picture is the name of this old typical Tuscan stone house in the foreground. I think this is the most photographed building in this part of Italy. But be careful if you only feed the navigation system with this name. There are other places with the same name. I got to know one of them the day before, 130 km away from here.
For the picture I waited until the sun was a little bit higher and had gained a bit of power, because I wanted to see the fields glowing. To my great joy, this was then made possible for me.
So nun kommen wir endlich zu dem Bild, weswegen ich nach San Quirico D'orcia in der Toskana gekommen bin und warum ich hier für mehr als einer Stunde in recht eisigem Wind auf dem Feld herum stehe. Mit mit einer gefühlt 10 cm dicken Schicht aus lehmiger Erde an und unter meinen Stiefeln, die ich zum Glück mitgebracht habe.
Der Name dieses Bildes ist übrigens der Name dieses alten typisch toskanischen Steinhauses im Vordergrund. Ich glaube das ist das am häufigsten fotografierte Gebäude in diesem Teil Italiens. Doch Vorsicht, wenn Ihr das Navi nur mit dieser Bezeichnung füttert. Es gibt noch andere Orte mit dem sellben Namen. Einen davon habe ich tags zuvor kennen lernen dürfen, 130 km von hier entfernt.
Für das Bild habe ich gewartet, bis die Sonne ein klein wenig höher stand und etwas an Kraft gewonnen hatte, denn ich wollte die Felder leuchten sehen. Zu meiner großen Freude wurde dies mir dann auch ermöglicht.

Let's face it now, it isn't everyday we see a genuine example of anti gravity anywhere let alone in agarden is it now? Yet here we have it along with the evidence, and not just any garden - it's in our garden! I know, it's incredible, but its not for sale so don't even go there.
The only other example I can think of is those UFO things that keep turning up on people's phones, but as folks don't believe in those, that makes this little baby unique does it not.
I'll tell you something else, it's totally silent, doesn't make a sound and you can pass your hands all around and underneath it like one of those stage magicians - it doesn't seem to mind. Nor, does it limit itself to any one flowerbed, oh no it moves with it's whims not just the sun, hot border in the morning, vegetable patch in the afternoon - it even followed me into the house one day!
A couple of days after taking this very photo, my wife and I had to pop to the garden centre (we were looking for something inter dimensional) and this little baby kept pace with us for an entire kilometre. It was only as we turned out of our road and my wife put the pedal to the metal that we thought we had lost it - I say 'thought' because when we pulled into the car park at the garden centre about 10 miles away there it was! I don't think anyone else saw it for it was hovering about 50 feet in the air directly over the compost bags, as it did so it slowly rotated and as the sun caught its petals it appeared to change colour - just like one of those bona fide UFOs that don't exist, and when we got home an hour later, there it was, sunning itself next to the garlic. I know, I know, it's incredible, but it isn't for sale so don't even go there....

It's a cold winter afternoon. The sun has set behind the forest. We are with my dog Helmi in a swamp, among low pine trees. A wonderful moment, just to be here now.

We decided that it would be fun to go back to the "beginning" and noob it up for one night. That picture can be found here: Snowglobe: 😂 Noob Group Shot!.
This picture is what we all look like at the current day. It was fun to go back. ♥
Ronda now has about 36 thousand residents. It is located on both sides of the ravine of the river Guadalevín. The city consists of two districts. In Mercadillo, the newer part of the city is the church Nuestra Señora del Socorro. In 1557 came here hospital for pilgrims and the poor under the name Socorro. In the 18th century was built new temple which, after reconstruction and fire, in the 20th century was finally given this form.

Ronda liczy obecnie około 36 tys. mieszkańców. Położone jest po obu stronach wąwozu rzeki Guadalevín. Miasto składa się z dwóch dzielnic. W Mercadillo, nowszej części miasta znajduje się kościół Nuestra Señora del Socorro. W 1557 powstał w tym miejscu szpital dla pielgrzymów i ubogich pod nazwą Socorro. W XVIII wieku wybudowano nową świątynię której po przebudowie i pożarze, w XX wieku nadano ostatecznie tą formę.

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
