One of my favored flowers: a single California Poppy and its feathery foliage on a black background...Aspect ratio: 3:2
One of the most entertaining things about self-driving safaris is that once you're parked and quiet, the animals ignore you and just go about their business. This lion (and the others) walked so close to our vehicle a couple times that we rolled up the windows (just in case).

The old Japanese Maple is my favorite one in the Kubota Garden in Seattle. It spreads high and wide and displays lovely autumn colors in late October.
Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
this was the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen, even the waitresses that work on the sea-front and see so many sunsets came out and watched in silence.....
Love to capture moments at night in a way that some parts are revelead, to leave the rest for the imagination... to create a story...
One Ring to rule them all, one Ring to find them, one Ring to bring them all and in darkness bind them

♪ Dream Theater - The Dark Eternal Night ♪
No one dared to
Speak of the terrible danger
The hideous ancient warnings
Forged in the void of night
He has risen up
Out of the blackness; chaos
Belongs to the prophet's sister
A sickening monstrous sight
Through that stifling heat underneath the pale green moon
(Hungered with the thirst to see things not yet seen)
Climbing endless stairs, leading to the choking room
(Eager to explore his most shocking mysteries)
Drifting beyond all time
Out of the churning sky
Drawn to the beckoning light
Of the dark eternal night
......
A beautiful lily with lots of pollen on the bottom petal. Photographed early one summer morning at the Enabling Garden in Altoona, Iowa.
Developed with Darktable 4.8.0.
The last cut of loads dips into the first of two submarine bridges on the Beech Mountain. It was a good run, here’s to the possibility of reactivation.
Little Two-spotted Ladybird (Diomus notescens)
I see lots of these in the garden but they are always running. This one stopped for a millisecond so I got the shot.
They are 2.5 mm in length (maximum) and whilst they look black they are actually a very dark green with the orange spot on either side.
One evening, a little hungry and creative... decided to spice up my poor little drumstick... Basmati rice, a hot sauce and drizzled with fried mushrooms, carrots and mustard greens, yum, yum!
One Foot Dragging - Band of Oz
Too many women and too many pinball machines
I play too many women and too many pinball machines
They take all your money
Don't you give you back a thing
Not a doggone thing
Too much whiskey and too many bottles of beer
I drink too much whiskey and too many bottles of beer
Well if one don't get me
I know the other will
Oh yes it will
One foot kicking and one foot dragging the ground
Come on and sing it with me one time
One foot kicking and one foot dragging the ground
Well you might get me up, ha, but I ain't comin' down

One of a pair of raccoons making the rounds of people's gardens early one morning. One of them was limping, and part of its tail is missing. Perhaps the dog was out when they visited the house with the sign on the fence: "Warning: Dog in Residence!"
One is light, one is dark. The golden path leads right between them. Two sides of the same aspect. Can there exist anything with only one side?
Also, if you're into calm music, maybe check out my soundcloud profile:

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
When we stayed near Dunbar in East Lothian one of our favourite places for lunch was the Old Smithy in Tyninghame, which is roughly half way between Dunbar and North Berwick. The original village of Tyninghame was a few hundred yards to the east, near Tyninghame House. But in 1761 the Earl of Haddington moved Tyninghame village from its original position to make way for landscaped parkland. The "new" village is now on the west side of the A198, just over a mile south of Whitekirk.
According to British Listed Buildings this delightful terrace of two-storey cottages in the main street dates from 1854 and is thought to have been designed by James Hannan. It is Category C-listed. One of the upstairs windows has been filled in and painted to appear normal. This was often done to avoid the Window Tax. However, this was repealed in 1851, so I'm not quite sure what has happened here. Perhaps the date given for the building is incorrect. There was also a Thomas Hannan who built a number of the buildings in Tyninghame in the first half of the 19th century.
As extraordinary shots go, this one is probably my luckiest yet. This is a black-winged stilt - in flight - as it skimmed across the water in front of me... Blimey! Did that really happen?
