Lo splendore di Firenze, unito ad una luce speciale, mi fanno sentire molto ottimista. Sempre e comunque.
Grazie per tutti i gentili commenti alle mie ultime foto!

Florence’s charme, combined with a special light, makes me feel very optimistic. Always and anyway.
Thanks for all your kind comments to my last photos

Restaurant in Reykjavík. It was nighttime, in November, so not even smokers were sitting outside. Some interesting items on the menu, if you zoom in. Traditional Plokkari, anyone?
Over optimistic lights, Vines Winebar isn’t going to open anytime soon unless the world spins a little faster on its axis and COVID-19 evaporates.
This is one of many strategies tried by a cormorant to eat an eel. It was nearly a fatal mistake as just out of shot was a diving gull intent on stealing the eel but the cormorant was too quick for it.
Photographed in Olhão.
Nature's confetti, showering lives with soft petals, each a reminder that joy can bloom even in the prickliest of patches.

I'm optimistic that this will clean up nicely, very nicely in fact! It looks good underneath and I cannot wait to clean it.
Pelicans came just as dawn was breaking. For a tiny romantic moment, I thought they were celebrating the new dawn. But the reality is, Pelicans are optimistic opportunists. They know that where there're fishermen, there're fish!
Yellow Branch Falls as she appeared on this bright, optimistic, sunny morning Feb 3, 2024. Even though her flow was low, I didn't mind. As for me, she never disappoints. Today I hiked down from above and completely understand why the former trail was decommissioned. It's far too dangerous of a descent for children, the elderly and people lacking hiking experience with careless tendencies. Compared with the existing trail, I found the former trail to be more of a "cut to the chase" excursion. (accepting for today's overgrown and "lack of" trail and the number of downed trees to maneuver over, through and around).The existing "new" trail today offers a beautiful array of mountain ridgeline views as the trail rises and falls along the way. Yellow Branch will always be uniquely special to me because it was one of the first waterfalls, I hiked to and photographed years ago. I have made many captures here and some with the waterfall full to overflowing. This morning, I had her all to myself for about 45 minutes. I hiked back out on the existing trail and met many people hiking in. No doubt, I'll be back many more times. It was such a great beginning for my new 2024 year of adventure hiking to waterfalls🍷🍷💙

In March the avenue of pleached limes at Mottisfont is carpeted by blue chionodoxa. Ray thought to take a few plants home for our garden.
Thank you so much for your support, visit, comments and faves!
I really appreciate each of them! Have a great day, my friends!
A tour guide told us that Acadia was once all evergreens, but a great and devastating fire cut through the area in 1947. On the bare and scorched patches of land, colorful trees began to grow in, creating the park's now famous Fall foliage.

On leaving my house in Beeston, I felt very optimistic of the promise of some attractive lighting from the low afternoon sun at Attenborough Nature Reserve. By the time I arrived, parked up, put my coat on, put my wellies on, took out my tripod and stomped to this location, the sun had done its disappearing act! After about an hour of taking some poor, unusable photos, the clouds thinned briefly to reveal some textures in the sky and shine diffused lighting on the tops of the trees.
A Velvet-fronted Nuthatch (Sitta frontalis) was scanning for tiny insects under the lichen laden barks of trees. It was caught in the fast action moves against a gorgeous Bokeh backdrop on green . The colours of the bird, its eyes and beak just stand out against the backdrop so well. Pics was taken from Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary, West Bengal, India.
Wandering around the desert southwest we came upon an abandoned set of buildings covered in graffiti. This is the only one i found providing some hope.
But then, there is always the fine print!

In just a little while, a mournful cry will rise across the land, as hundreds of millions of people's hopes are dashed, realizing that they have not won the lottery - again..
If you ever needed proof that we are an optimistic people, this should erase any doubt. Your odds of winning are stupidly, ridiculously miniscule.
And yet, as we learned when Mary told Lloyd in Dumber and Dumber that the odds against them 'getting together' were "more like a million to one", as long as the odds aren't zero, we have a chance.
Despite the odds, Lloyd grins and says, "A million to one? So you're telling me - I got a chance! Yeah!!".
Our odds of winning tonight's Powerball are 292 times worse than Lloyd's chances of boinking Mary, but that doesn't stop us from making sure our chances aren't zero, does it..
As long as you've got a ticket - you've got a chance!
Let's be optimistic, that we are going to jump into a better, more peaceful, fairer, healthier, more colourful happy New Year!

Optimistically waiting for a glimmer of sunshine on an overcast morning in woodland in Uppland in Central Sweden back in mid-June (1165)
I am not optimistic that it will make it to produce a pumpkin as it is proving to be such a cool summer and pumpkins need a lot of warmth but I carry on hoping.
Thank you so much for sharing your quality photos which is a great way to see and keep some sort of touch with the world from home. Also for your kind comments and favours which are much valued.
I am not able to take on any more members to follow or to post to groups
