Despite being nicknamed after its similarity to the Bridge of Sighs in Venice, Hertford Bridge was never intended to be a replica. Instead, it seems to bear a closer resemblance to the Rialto Bridge in the same city.

Life has been total chaos here at home, but I have missed all my contacts on Flickr and at least wanted to get an image up to let all know I haven't vanished. Will catch up with comments tomorrow. ~Rae

When trying to identify a daffodil you’ve found in an old garden, a vacant lot, or way out in the middle of nowhere, it’s often ‘Van Sion’.
In part this is because ‘Van Sion’ is all over the place. It’s been sold and passed-along for centuries, and it’s so exceptionally tough that it multiplies where many other daffodils can’t even survive. That is the most prolific daff in our garden. The little ones on the bottom are "Tete-a-tete"

Was hoping to shoot some lighthouses on Friday but they didn't have an ice buildup like I had wanted. So we had a lovely drive around the farm country and came away with a few interesting images.

Been battling the flu all week, so you can imagine how coming downstairs the other day to this bouquet that Mark collected from odds and ends in our garden totally cheered me up.

The river Coln drifts quietly through Bibury, and past the famous Arlington Row.
We had the good fortune to be there early on a September morning and got a few shots off just head of the lines of tour buses coming in.

Our anniversary week was focused on photography, so we went out on Friday hoping for fall colors. We got that and much more with the most stunning cloud formations I have ever seen!

This little building (now a home) sits above the drive to the farm where my brother spent his summers as a child. It is a beautiful area in West Yorkshire and always a treat to return to.

Conditions for limestone pavements are created when an advancing glacier scrapes away overburden and exposes horizontally bedded limestone, with subsequent glacial retreat leaving behind a flat, bare surface. Limestone is slightly soluble in water and especially in acid rain, so corrosive drainage along joints and cracks in the limestone can produce slabs called clints isolated by deep fissures called grikes or grykes[2] (terms derived from a northern English dialect).

Headlands walk along the Yorkshire Coast
As the farms look so tiny perched atop these powerful cliffs, it made me consider how that we may think our mark on the planet is insignificant, but if we look again more closely we find that is not the case. As a group over 8 billion strong, our actions are destroying this wonderful gift of earth and we are fools if we think this can continue.

This was shot in late March on our last day spent with our dear brother. Covid had ramped up so quickly during the 2.5 weeks we had been there and our flight back to the States was cancelled. We were up at our regular vacation spot in Cumbria and enjoying daily shooting trips, while we desperately continued make calls to obtain tickets home, since our airline had left us stranded there. We returned from this expedition to find we had a flight out with BA early the next morning.
The image reflects the anxiety of the time. We have had to cancel our trip back in September and are not hopeful about the coming March. Terribly missing our family and friends in the UK, but so far we are all safe and well...so we remain grateful and patient.

Another from our visit last week to my friend's wonderful little farm. I'm getting used to my new telephoto lens and its weight, so I came away with only a limited number of shots of the horses running, but there were a couple I was pleased with and I have learned a lot. I have done little work with telephoto and never over 200mm so this is a very different genre for me.

We finally got home to the US after multiple attempts and cancelled flights from the UK. So happy to be settled safely back, although very sad to have the visit with our little brother Andy cut short. This scene down the road from our home greeted us on Monday after our arrival.

The sound of horse's hooves is so much more calming than the constant hum and roar of engines. This is what makes Mackinac Island so special.

I'm working with an online group. This month is to think about an image for each letter of the alphabet as I move through February. As usual, I am behind and a bit hit or miss. I'm also not feeling well enough to go out and shoot. However it is getting me to think about the images I choose to edit.
This is on the same farm as the previous ice sculpture.
I hope you will take a minute to view this in Large.

Someday I am going to get one of these guys with the beautiful iridescent blue wings open. I guess it's good to have an unfulfilled goal. In the meantime I do think the camouflage underside of their wings is pretty amazing too.

Standing on ground formerly known by French explorers as Grande Point au Sable, the Lighthouse Board recommended a beacon be placed in Ludington. In 1867, Big Sable Point Lighthouse was constructed, and on November 1 of that year, mariners as far as 19 miles out on the lake saw a constant white light for the first time.
Climate has not been kind to the lighthouse, and in early 1900, the tower had deteriorated so badly that cement was poured between the plates and brick. It was at this time that the black and white daymark was introduced. In 1949, Big Sable Point became the last Great Lakes light to be electrified, and automation of the light eliminated the need for a keeper, though the Coast Guard staffed the light until 1972.
The Big Sable Point Lighthouse is listed on both the state and national registers of historic places. It is one of the tallest in the state of Michigan at over 100 feet.

True friends see who we really are, hear our words and the feelings behind them, hold us in the safe harbor of their embrace, and accept us as we are.
