My mischievous, little boy, Patches. Unlike my other cats, he's always unfazed by my presence, even when I'm taking photos of him. Liked it more in black and white.
Nancy: -Hello I'm "Nancy in the city". You're sooo cute!
Patch: -Hehee... Hi! I'm Patch the Brave Knight. You look like Godzilla with your big legs and mini arms!
Nancy: -How rude!
Patch: -But it's a compliment! I love godzillas, I even have a baby one as a pet. He's over there -Yooohoo Zillo! Say Hi to Miss Nancy-, I'm teaching him how to chase asian hornets. They are a real threat to biodiversity, you see.
Nancy: -That's cool! What a great Brave Knight you are! Can you help me find the nearest city?
Patch: -I'm afraid I'm really bad at geography, Milady. But I can tell that you are on the famous DuDidier street, it goes from here to there, both inside and outside.
Nancy: -Ah. I think I heard that already.
Patch: -I love your outfit! It would look great on Zillo. Can I borrow it sometime?
Nancy: -¡absolutamente no!

I'm so fond of Patch the Brave Knight that I can't bring myself to change her outfit. I might need another Patch who will be wearing it all the time (and possibly build an army of brave knights lol). After all we never know when we'll need the help of a Brave Knight.
The girls were playing outside amongst the flowers one late afternoon. They looked so adorable in their flowery dresses, that Veronica, Patch's mum, abandoned the dishes and went out with the camera.
Mum: Girls!
Patch: Yes mum?
Pepper: Yes Mrs Wetherby!
Mum: I only have one photo left on this film. *Holding up the camera.* So please stand still and smile for me.
Patch: Will do.
Pepper: Of course Mrs Wetherby.
They lined up and just as Veronica hit the button, Patch went topsy-turvy.
Mum: Oh Patch!
Patch: Did you get it? Did you get it?! *Excited*
Pepper: Haha, bravo! I wish I could do that.
Mum: *sigh* Yes my little rascal, I got it. But I do want to get your pretty little face in a photo at some point.
Patch: Sure mum. I smiled though. Pepper, I will teach you how to do it, but it takes all you got and you will get dirty.
Pepper: Smashing!

Pepper is trying so hard to become as mischievous as Patch, but she has a long way to go.

... many other colours were also on offer to the photographer and sightseer. But it was the mid afternoon sunlight that these particular blossoms really shone.
Yellow Patches Mushrooms grow solitary or in groups on the ground in the summer to the fall, in broad-leaved and mixed woods. Noted for preferring hemlock
Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere. He's gotta pick this one. He's got to. I don't see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there's not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see.
All images and textures are my own.

In our area snow is still covering most of the ground in the middle of March, but there are also patches of snow-free ground here and there.

A re visit last night to wild flower patch to see if there had been any changes, and yes the poppies have sprung up a bit more .
Thinking of all those poor people who lost their lives today in Tunisia:(.
Bloodgood is looking for the perfect pumpkin to sculpt her Halloween Jack o' lantern.
Outfit and jewellery made by my sister :-)
I think this is Yellow Patch (Amanita flavoconia) mushroom.
Photo taken hand-held. Amazingly, I was able to align and focus stack 9 photos, one of which had to be manually moved and masked. Then, I used a touch of an AI brush to clean up the mess between the focus and out of focus layers. HSS!
CSX local Y-217 was working the west end of Winans Yard in West Baltimore back in 1992. Former Western Maryland Railway GP40 3798 and Baltimore and Ohio GP38 4814 were both looking ragged but nonetheless awesome.
The WM motor went on as Indiana Southern 4041 and the B&O geep is now a rebuilt GP38-3 working for the Wichita Tillman & Jackson Railway after a stint in the lease fleet and work for the Union Pacific.
This is the Teasel Patch I used to capture all the macros in. It was a good sized patch with many plants easily over 6 foot tall. Lucky for me there were some closer to the ground that still had some flowers on them.
iPhone 4 to capture and iPad 3 to edit.
I was visiting Mirror Lake, in the High Uinta Mountains in Utah on an overcast day, when a patch of blue suddenly opened up.
