This image is from Koukokuji Temple in Japan. What you see are small Buda statues made of glass that have multicolored lights under them. They are programed to be a light show at times.
This display stands for many things, but my take away was this- in a crowd of many, there is always one that stands out. A light to others. Don't conform, be who you are and you can shine too, standing out in the crowd.

I can’t remember anything
Can’t tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I’m waking up, I cannot see
That there’s not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
I was sitting on the bench next to my pond and this leaf fell down into the water. It was a moment....Like something profound had just happened but I didn't understand what it was....😉
It was hard to find the Woodies after they jumped out of the creek. It was so muddy, I couldn't get close. When I pulled the shot up on my computer, I noticed they were both standing on one leg.
With my college move in date coming quick, I decided to shoot L-521 making their way to Kimberly one last time. Chances are the next time I can shoot this train, things will have drastically changed. It is certainly the end of an era.
My latest trip to Germany in April of this year lasted only a day. That day however was very effective for me, as I managed to enlarge my portfolio of spotted class 218 locomotives, which are to be phased out of normal service in DB by the end of this year. This was most likely my last chance to see them on a normal passenger train... although the past has taught me to never say never,
The picture shows 218.429 running a RE2 service from Lübeck to Bad Kleinen instead of a railbus. The loco-hauled train was deployed to increase capacity for the passengers who took this route while the main corridor between Berlin and Hamburg was closed. The train is shown leaving Schönberg on one of the more known spots of the line.

I held up the group to take this "one last shot" near Mesa Arch in the Canyonlands near Moab, Utah. Actually, it was more like 20 last shots. Then I hustled back, and, as the group became visible down below, I started to limp, but all I heard were shouts of "We're not buying that." Some people just don't understand the artistic temperament. Taken on Jeff Clow's Dirt Cheap Photo Tour.
Trust is built on one marble at a time.

Thanks for views, faves and comments!
And a heavy dream of everyday reflection
You'll throw out -- the loving one and sad...

The Riverside, Phnom Penh
Pigeons at the Riverside are so tame, they will actually eat right out of your hand. The one above just flew in to say hi and to see if my camera was edible. 😁
In the photo above, you're actually looking across The Tonle Sap River, away from the city. A five minute walk from here, The Tonle Sap merges with The Mekong River. This area of Phnom Penh is known as The Riverside, home of The Royal Palace, The National Museum, Wat Ounalom and dozens of cafes, bars, restaurants and hotels.
There is a wide, paved pedestrian sidewalk running along the rivers, which makes it a popular hangout for foreigners and locals alike. Especially after sunset, when it cools off.

A dusty plastic fan in a dirty window above a shop door.
Looks like a relic from the 70s or 80s to me.
I think I received a Polaroid One Step ages ago on my 16th birthday! I would love to still have it but this decoration will do for now. Maybe when we're able to hit the antique shops again, I might find one to add to my little collection.

I have two Coopers Hawks that are hunting in my yard and they are here every day. This one is on my fence and he is watching a squirrel on the bird feeder.
The feeding frenzy continues as the marsh seems to be overrun with newly hatched fish. Eagerly feeding on them are dozens and dozens of terns, egrets, herons and gulls. The wading birds stab at the fish with their sharp beaks from the shore but if you want to get to the big schools you have to venture into deeper water. That's where the terns and gulls are feasting. While the gulls have a more dainty approach of hovering over the surface until finally dropping in to grab a fish, The terns dive bomb from 20 feet up and impale fish on their large beaks.
This one shows of its skills by catching two fish at the same time.
One giant leap for Frogkind...Common Gray Tree Frog ranges from 1 1/4-2 3/8 inches (3.2-6cm); he is nocturnal and usual live high in tree tops, which is why I was surprised to find him on my back garage screen door!
The light was bad but I did get a couple of shots before I called for help to remove him to a garden; turns out the little guy can easily leap 3-4 feet! Which is what he did, into my kitchen...Chaotic attempt to catch him before he leaped behind the fridge, or Frodo got him! Captured him and released him outside hear his normal habitat. Phew, one efficient little machine there!
Have a terrific weekend all!
