These wild cows and me got on really well. After some hours locals came along and adviced me to park my car elsewhere to avoid damage. As it happens my car is the cheapest on the market, but was brandnew. I followed the advice, but I was not the least concerned

One half of the robin pairs that carve our territories in our yard. They're so industrious and energetic. I love it when they perch in a tree for a moment.
This time next month there may be some kind of normality in the UK with the easing of most Covid-19 pandemic restrictions...'Normality' is already beginning with lunch-time diners - inside and kerbside - at Arthur's restaurant and cafe at Laugharne,west Wales,UK...You could feel the tensions of the past year easing just watching a scene as this.....Fingers crossed everyone...Keep safe,especially from the increasing threat of the Delta variant,and lets hope we can help the rest of the pandemic stricken world soon.
Canada has lost a great human being today. You will be missed Jack.
His final message:
My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world.
All my very best,
Jack Layton
Le Canada a perdu un grand homme aujourd'hui.
Son dernier message:
"Mes amis, l'amour est cent fois meilleur que la haine. L'espoir est meilleur que la peur. L'optimisme est meilleur que le désespoir. Alors, aimons, gardons espoir et restons optimistes. Et nous changerons le monde.
Chaleureusement,
Jack Layton
“It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
"So it is."
"And freezing."
"Is it?"
"Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately.”
so with much deliberating, i've decided to discontinue my 365. I had initially put it off for a while because I didn't want this to happen and needed to feel ready, but i got caught up in enthusiasm and jumped a little too early. I don't like using outtakes for days im unispired. but don't you worry, ill start a new one up soon. I just need some time to recollect myself. and of course I will still be uploading. thanks so much for the support ive gotten thus far. dont give up on me.

OPTIMISM
WHEN THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE FINALLY HAPPENS. I AM GOING STRAIT TO THE GRAVEYARD TO PLAY THE BEST GAME OF WACK-A-MOLE EVER!!

No use running; grief thrives on ignorance.
Eventually, it will catch up with you.
It becomes your responsibility to take matters into your own hands.
Take charge of your plight before it controls you.
I have this idea for a series that I plan on paying out over the next few days.
I've been wanting to use clouds for a while and have been observing how others use them in their images: cloud hanging over you, head is in the clouds, etc. Instead I wanted to take it in a different direction; an optimistic journey for anyone with a raincloud huffing and puffing behind them.
See updates and outtakes on Facebook.

I took a photo of this tunnel months ago, back in June. It doesn’t feel like months ago, but it was….
I do have more optimism than I did the last time I took an image in this spot.

I captured no new photographs during the weekend, so I'm still fooling around with my archive and textures. This time I used two more great textures from ASfotos (Thanks again, Adele!). The picture is also embellished with my lame attempt at poetry :-)
