Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a yellow day at Color my world Daily and since it is super hot in Montreal right now, Mr. Egg is spending his days laying outside in his brand new long chair… He does it even during the night, since the temperature is a little bit cooler during night hours… And his friend , Mr. Teddy Bear, lent him his bran new lamp. This way, Mr. Egg can enjoy some light and a bearable temperature ….It is a well known fact, that eggs dont like boiling temperatures… They are very prone to crack under pressure as well…. But, with all that yellow (very joyful color!!), with his drink near, his long chair, his glasses and the lamp, we are in a very, very low stress environment.
Lets hope my meeting will be very, very stress free this morning !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! And see you soon !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

Little bitty blues bird flies
And gray clouds, or white walls, or blue skies
We gon' fly, feel alright!"
Legend says that Atlantis city was built by Poseidon, god of sea when he fell in love with a mortal woman Cleito. He made this city on top of a nearby hill and named it Atlantis. It is believed that he walked through these islands until he reached the biggest of them all- Atlantis and found it to be inhabited by people more beautiful and intelligent than rest of the world. It is here he first saw his future wife and fell in love with her.

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 👍

Expect that the captain aboard the ferry to Denmark, was reasonably "pissed off" when we didn't move our boat fast enough out of his way. Although they used the ship`s whistle / horn eagerly ...... But we were on a fishing trip and then everything else have to wait..... :-) Sorry Captain!
*Now Sweetheart — a poem by Cemal Süreya, İstanbul
Now sweetheart, I am thinking of you in a big city
A dim blue pen in my hand, two packs of cigarettes in my pocket
Our life is like a movie playing in front of my eyes
Our going out freely, drinking water together, kissing
I cry, whenever I remember how we laughed together
Flowers, flowers, I watered the flowers this morning
That rose just doesn't smile when you are not here
That flower you put in water by the window to get it grow roots
It is completely in grief these days
A dense and strong daylight is hitting the window
The plates are cheerless on the table
The hallway is deserted
The towels are alone in the shower
Don't even ask the kitchen - untidy and dirty
The sponge is right there, the breadbox is empty
The ventilator is breathless
The rugs are dusty
My clothes are in the wardrobe, and here and there
Memo's toy box is in deep sleep
The blue night lamp has no ambition
The door says open me, close me
The curtains are like snakes changing skin
The radio? It is silent
The stool is afraid of the chairs
The small room is dark and deserted
Everything is waiting for you, for your return
For you to come in
For the touch of your hands
For the touch of your eyes
And everything is repeating
How much I love you
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.

We passed this guy who climbed to the top of this rock formation at the start of our hike. When we passed by on the way back, about an hour later, he was still there. Maybe he was waiting for someone, taking in the view, resting or...?
Evidently rock climbing is permitted in this area because there was a climber on each rock face near the parking area. Some were experienced; some seemed like they were stuck, like the guy in the next picture.
