Fields of Gold

Sting

You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields of barley

You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we walk in fields of gold

So she took her love for to gaze awhile upon the fields of barley

In his arms she fell as her hair came down among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love among the fields of barley?

We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we lie in fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so upon the fields of barley.

Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth among the fields of gold

I never made promises lightly and there have been some that I've broken

But I swear in the days still left we'll walk in fields of gold

We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days among the fields of barley

See the children run as the sun goes down among the fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields of barley

You can tell the sun in his jealous sky when we walked in fields of gold

When we walked in fields of gold, when we walked in fields of gold

A beaut of a butte, east of Lake Powell, on the far side of Antelope Island, which lies low in the foreground, shadowed just before sunset. Note the layering on the butte and the cliffs behind, indicating sandstones and shales laid down by sedimentary processes—completely different from the massive intrusive granite blocks in Monument Valley, which are remnants of volcanic activity.

Thanks for stopping by in my gallery. I’m very pleased and really appreciate each and every view of my photo, comments, invitations and awards.

Sitting catty corner northeast of the historic Henry County Courthouse is the Gruey Memorial Library in Cambridge. The two-story, red brick library was formally dedicated on February 15, 1929 when Constant I. Gruey presented the library to the village as a gift from himself and his late wife, Henrietta. This view shows the original entrance to the library that once had two set of stairs leading up to the first floor balcony. The Gruey Memorial Library building is now part of the Cambridge Public Library District.

The population of Cambridge at the 2020 census was 2,086.

I'm wishing I was out 'connecting' with nature but instead I'm connected to a computer and desk. BUT -- good news! It is Friday and I'm looking forward to some outdoor time tomorrow. Rain and 5 degrees in the forecast but those quiet early mornings are worth getting bundled up for!

Happy weekend all!!

I am inspired by many things. Musically by the genius of Miles Davis, hence my title which refers to, IMHO, one of the best jazz albums of all time. Likewise I come to Flickr for photographic inspiration. My views on photography and indeed the many genres of photography that I attempt have been heavily influenced by so many talented people here on Flickr. One of them is Joseph Pearson Images, a London architectural photographer who has photographed so many of the same buildings and structures around London that I have but both of us do it in our own way. Its always interesting for me to see his take on a building that I am very familiar with myself and see what his 'eye' picked out. Usually it's something I've missed and so my education continues!

Yesterday Joseph posted a picture of one of my favourite underground stations here in London, Southwark station, and it got me looking back at some of the pictures I've taken over the years in this most photogenic of stations. I was surprised to see that I'd never posted this escalator shot so thought I'd do so now. Taken pre-covid, way back in 2019.

This shot was taken when I was out strolling around in the nearby nature reserve of "Norra Järvafältet". I was looking for a single tree located in a grassy field so I could take a "frosty, foggy" shot later this year. I didn´t found exactly what I was looking for but I found this tree and decided I should try to find some good compositions. The tree's branches form a bit of a "mushroom hat" and are fairly symmetric. I will go back in the autumn and see how the scene changes and what colors that bring. This image is processed to be on the warm side, with saturated colors and "golden" glow to it.

This shot was taken with my Nikon D7200 and Sigma 24-105mm f4.0 art lens.

'Bowl of Beauty' Peony is famous for its huge, hot-pink outer petals that surround a soft and frilly ivory-yellow center, with each bloom measuring up to 10" across.

One of the most attractive peonies available, and one of my faves to photograph ..

Day two of two.

This one belonged to the same owner as the other one posted yesterday.

The Queen butterfly (Danaus gilippus) is one of three milkweed butterflies that reside in the state of Florida, along with Monarchs and Soldiers. The Queen butterfly is native to both North and South America and is a member of the Nymphalidae or brush-foot family. The adult butterfly only appears to have 4 legs as the last 2 insect legs are very small and are located near the butterfly's head. As adults, these delightful butterflies are clever mimics, utilizing Mullarian mimicry to reinforce the warning colors and distasteful qualities of several related species, gaining all species more protection from predators.

Seen less often than the ubiquitous Monarch, they can be distinguished by the darker brick red color of their wings that looks very different from the Monarch’s bright orange coloration. The topside of their wings lacks black lines that follow the veins on a Monarch’s wing.

I found this male along Joe Overstreet Road in Osceola County Florida.

You've got that hold over me

Long as I've got your love

And it's been you, woman

Right down the line"

HMM & HMMM

The darkness of an ancient entity, primordal fear from the shadows, presence of something right behind you. Turn around, all you see is waving branches. You are alone. Alone in your crazy reality. Something wants to get inside. Than you realize, the something is a guy with a camera, who wants to get into your ancient shadows. Not even primordal fears of yours cannot stop him!

National Gallery of Australia, Canberra.

Wanted to share a message from the Director of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology:

"I often talk about the power of birds, but this year they take on an even more powerful meaning. They enliven our days, brighten the trees, serenade in our backyards and city parks, and bestow us with so much joy and hope, all bundled together in feathers and lively personalities."

Working in a hospital is a bit stressful these days, but when I get home the birds take me away from it all.

Let's stay connected, if needed dust off those archives!

The Temple of Aphaia (Greek: Ναός Αφαίας) or Afea is located within a sanctuary complex dedicated to the goddess Aphaia on the Greek island of Aigina, which lies in the Saronic Gulf. Formerly known as the Temple of Jupiter Panhellenius, the great Doric temple is now recognized as dedicated to the mother-goddess Aphaia. It was a favorite of the neoclassical and romantic artists such as J. M. W. Turner. It stands on a c. 160 m peak on the eastern side of the island approximately 13 km east by road from the main port.

O Ναός της (Αθηνάς) Αφαίας βρίσκεται στην Αίγινα, στο ιερό αφιερωμένο στην ομώνυμη θεότητα. Βρίσκεται σε ύψος 160 μέτρων στην ανατολική πλευρά του νησιού. Το ιερό επίσης βρίσκεται 29 περίπου χιλιόμετρα νοτιοδυτικά της Ακρόπολης των Αθηνών.
