A black-eyed susan in sepia…

  

pieces of camphor a put into the fire as an offering.

Work...gym...and a late evening walk in a nearby hill with wonderful meadows. I was lucky that some butterflies settled for the night, offering excellent macro opportunities in the soft evening light.

This is a Small heath butterfly (Coenonympha pamphilus, kis szénalepke).

Some may recognize this eagle from an earlier post. I’ve re-positioned it against a different background from the same time in order to combine the best of the day’s offerings.

There was a chipmunk coming onto the deck at my friends cottage, and we thought we would try to tempt it with some tasty fruit. Either it wasn’t a temptation or the chipmunk suspicious of free gifts because the offering was not accepted.

Two phalaenopsis orchid flowers that appear to be offering gifts to each other.

Apparently not on par with sunflower seeds, but this one came in to check.

 

This birding project started back during that unforgettable shelter-in-place time, when the backyard was as far as we could all get. It has continued since, but don't start thinking that I've gone fully into birding, it's just a phase in my backlog.

 

PLEASE: Do not post any comment graphics, they will be deleted. See info in my bio.

A dubious offering, as the absence of a balancing shadow area on 'The Stuc' makes this otherwise pleasing scene somewhat lop-sided. That little rock doesn't quite fill the role, unfortunately.

The aspiring 'banner cloud' was an irresistible feature & gave me every reason to halt my descent: in order to both record this curious, short-lived feature, & to simply soak in the marvellous atmosphere of grand hill-country under fresh sunlit snow.

  

 

The man at Centrespace.

Leonard Lane, Bristol.

 

At number 6 you will find "Centrespace" an independent and sustainable community of artists and craftspeople offering both studio space, workshops, events and a gallery space for hire. The building was originally occupied by artists in the late 1970’s and has been running as a co-operative since 1987.

It's been a couple months since a train of high interest for me has run south on the Mactier, but today opportunity finally arose in the form of CP 3082 South hauling a half-loaded CWR train bound for Toronto. I'll refrain from any complaints about SD40s not being selected as power because this geep looks damn good, possibly the best looking CP one I've shot throughout my time foaming. Freshly repainted, nice numberboards, and class lights intact. Seen here passing by the Old Second Road crossing just south of Craighurst with some nice colour on the trees above.

Trees and their roots at Avebury UNESCO World Heritage Site, Wiltshire, UK.

 

Someone had placed some offering flowers against a couple of the trees.

Spending time in the garden over the past weeks and months, I find myself collecting all manner of things to bring indoors and photograph. As the garden is full of birds and full of snails too ... well there are always snail shells hidden in unexpected corners! Cleaned and sorted ... a few here in a scallop shell!
