My cabbage patch kid as a child was called Hilda Natasha, and my sister's was called Barbara Alexandra! Lol childhood memories😁☺️
This barn appears to have been patched up many times over the years. The roof, the sides, the additions. It all makes for a unique look. The dusting of snow adds a nice touch as well!

As the heavens prepare for an imminent downpour, nature paints a breathtaking scene in the mountains of Tuscany.
Italy experiences a period of intense rainfall as dark clouds dominate the sky. The relentless downpour transforms the landscape, turning streets into temporary rivers and fields into saturated patches of earth. People navigate through the rain, seeking shelter and utilizing umbrellas and raincoats to stay dry. The heavy rainfall showcases the power and unpredictability of nature, reminding us of our vulnerability in the face of natural forces.
Selective focus on one bud on my Winter Gladioli which are providing much needed colour in the garden at the moment.
Spare a thought for Queensland again facing major flooding for the 3rd time this year. And at such a late stage in the year!
I'll be off for a couple of days so will hopefully be able to comment & respond to comments next week.
After shooting sunrise a walk back up the hill to the car to be greeted with some patchy warm might across the landscape, The sky was a nice colour but I wanted to take in those wide warm patches. Only one thing for it a panorama to take in that wide vista. In the distance you can see a lone tree on a hill and that is where I recently shot a sunset from is Cissbury ring.ring .
Having completed a brief stop after cresting the summit at Sand Patch, Pennsylvania, four second-generation geeps get a westbound pig train moving.
It is that time of year and the pumpkin patches are busy with families getting out to enjoy our lovely fall weather. I had to get out early yesterday to get a couple of shots before the crowds descended. Maan Farm Market, Abbotsford, B.C.
Red-winged Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus phoeniceus) - 20230516-06
Males are black with red shoulder patch that is sometimes concealed. Males have rusty feather edges in the winter. Females are streaked brown and often confused with sparrows. Look for long, sharply pointed bill. Often in flocks, especially in winter. Visits feeders. Breeds in marshes and scrubby, wet fields. Distinctive song, especially as migrants arrive in early spring. (eBird)

A proud male celebrates his vanquishing of the enemy found within the side mirror of a car. He fought that reflection for nearly five minutes, crammed in tight between door and mirror. His stance says it was all worth it.

A dear friend from North Wind Stables, Pat Johnson recently acquired this beautiful pup Patches. Pat wasn't riding at the Children's Classic Horse Show so I thought I'd follow Patches around a bit and see what I could get. This shot seemed to work out well. BTW: For folks scared of high ISO settings (you know who you are) this was at 6400.
The white patch in his face makes it look as if one side of the face was completely different from the other side.

There are two cat cafés in Glasgow, Purrple Cat Café and Meow Café. For those who are stuck between the two of them (What else do you people spend time doing on vacation exactly?!?!), I enjoyed both but Purrple Cat Café has cats that are not pure bred cats which I like more. There are so many wonderful cats in this world who need homes even if they aren't "instagrammable" (Who cares-ALL CATS are instagrammable!) Anyway, Purrple Cat Café had over 30 cats but it was such a well taken care of place without even any smells that I was highly impressed. It gets my highest cat café recommendation which is 6/5 happy cats !
