Seashore cliff far up north. Come into being millions of years ago, shaped and smoothened by waves, storms and ice ages ever since.

Seashore cliff far up north. Come into being millions of years ago, shaped and smoothened by waves, storms and ice ages ever since.

Trees at a shoreline. Lake nearby Berlin / Germany. Berlin has many lakes. This one we visited for the first time during a short visit to Berlin. I was impressed by the persistence of those trees that still formed leaves and grew despite their unusual way to grow. It is an unspectacular image, but this place created some nice childhood memories. I spend as a child many weekends at and on such a lake where my parents had set up a tent at a permanent campsite for a couple of summer seasons.

Hidden long the south western Izu coast lies majestic Senganmon.

This tree root stood near the middle of a spring fed stream. I can only imagine that during a dry period a small sapling emerged and took root. Beating the odds it grew to maturity and now even though just a stump remains it is "Persistence even in death."

The years have certainly left their mark on this millions of years old seashore cliff. However - unlike many other things in our world - storms, winters, and ice ages have only made it smoother.

No, I haven't flipped it.....they were climbing upwards, or at least one of them, on the back of a bench...

A Note: Some of the interpretations of this mini scene (however true they may be!) are far from what I had in mind. I was just fascinated how one bug can carry the other on its back and still climb the vertical back of the bench without even "breaking a sweat"! You try doing this.....:)

I wanna feel something

I wanna feel something

I drink to feel something

I sleep and feel nothing

Maybe that's where you come in

Maybe that's where you and I begin

 

[Verse 2: SYML & Charlotte Lawrence]

I want some good loving

I want some good loving

Want it to mean something

Set this old heart buzzing

Maybe that's where you come in

Maybe that's where you and I begin

 

[Chorus: SYML, SYML & Charlotte Lawrence]

No, I don't need a heavenly home

A place beyond the clouds with everyone we've ever known

It doesn't matter where we go

If you were born to run

I was made to run with you

I was made for you

[Verse 3: SYML, SYML & Charlotte Lawrence]

I need some church, darling

I need some church, darling

I am a false prophet

I must confess, darling

Maybe that's where you come in

Maybe that's where you and I begin

 

[Verse 4: SYML & Charlotte Lawrence, SYML]

Our love's a great mountain

Our love's a great mountain

Climbed up and fell down it

We lived to laugh about it

Well, baby, you and I survived

Maybe God thanks you that I'm alive

 

[Chorus: SYML & Charlotte Lawrence, SYML]

No, I don't need a heavenly home

A place beyond the clouds with everyone we've ever known

It doesn't matter where we go

If you were born to run

I was made to run with you

I was made for you

I was made for you

You

[Verse 5: SYML & Charlotte Lawrence]

I wanna feel something

I want some good loving

Take me to church, darling

Our love's a great mountain

Baby, after all this time

Maybe home is you and I've arrived

  

This tiny 1 day old Hyena cub was very keen to explore its surroundings and tried several times to escape from mom, even though he could not yet use his back legs properly. Mom just kept picking him up and gently returning him to the den.

 

Stay tuned for more....

NS 1635, a high hood SD40-2, works the riverfront in Alton, IL, and a pleasant March afternoon.

I initially saw this train heading north thru Wood River earlier in the day, and kept with it as much as I could until this shot was taken in the evening. He took quite a while working in the yard in Alton, and ended up getting a new crew late in the afternoon to continue work. This is the first time I've been able to snag a train in this area. I almost went home, too, before this guy came to the riverfront.

TENACITY and PERSISTENCE in achieving goals

Always go ahead, set new goals each time and fulfill them. You can fall nine times, but you have to get up ten and get stronger and step higher. The key to success is clear planning and tactics. Ability to think, count and see two steps ahead of their opponents. Use new ideas and scientific advances for your own purposes. Reasonable audacity, the ability to take risks and courage in actions are the qualities of a real Emperor.

 

Alexander, in his desire to follow the heroic paradigm, naturally placed great value on honor, and with it to the virtues of self-control and self-denial. He always went forward, having a great goal and fulfilling it without fear, inspiring many people, changing history and the map of the earth.

*************************

УПОРСТВО И НАСТОЙЧИВОСТЬ в достижении целей

Всегда идите вперед, ставьте каждый раз новые цели и выполняйте их. Вы можете девять раз упасть, но обязаны встать десять и стать сильнее и шагнуть выше. Залог успеха - четкое планировани и тактика. Умение мыслить, считать и видеть на два шага вперед своих противников. Использовать новые идеи и достижения науки для своих целей. Разумная дерзость, умение рисковать и смелость в действиях - качества настоящего Императора.

 

Александр, в своем желании следовать героической парадигме, естественно, придавал большое значение чести, а вместе с ней и достоинствам самоконтроля и самоотречения. Он всегда шел вперед, имея великую цель и осуществлял ее без страха, вдохновляя многих людей, меняя историю и карту земли.

 

Some persistence paid off today as I pushed the boundaries of "lunch" to catch Wheeling 96 leaving Toledo several times. Early cloud problems gave way to better skies blowing in from the west and my final shot of them just past Pearson Park in Oregon was the real winner for the day showing off the "matched" 4 unit consist.

Thai orchid growing indoor in my Gold Coast hinterland home produced these blooms months ago. The yellows are slightly burnishing and the turgidity diminishing but it is still hanging on.

Long past the season to grow and show off its beauty,

the Rose bush keeps offering up a new blossom, one at

a time, in a show of strength, even of stubbornness, like myself! And of Persistence.

That's my kind of Rose!

 

This little Song Sparrow was singing its heart out, and in honor of its persistence, I decided to dress up its image with some added text. The quote has often been attributed to Maya Angelou, but according to various sources, its earliest use goes back to a 1967 book named "A Cup Of Sun," by popular children's book author Joan Walsh Anglund.

When you keep doing what you keep doing

While visiting the tulip fields, we noticed some beautiful tulips growing in a field that had clearly been planted with corn last year. The bokeh is the collapsed and weathered corn stalks.

Hanksville, Utah. I don't know how old this structure is but it has held together quite well.

Persistence pays off. Thirteen years trying to dig this white hibiscus out from a thick clump of giant bird of paradise it's been a single stem forever and barely any roots came out with the stump. It was doubtful whether it would survive the move. Now planted in a large pot in shade it has put on new growth and several blooms lately. Since this was a long time coming there is no rush to stick it in the ground it deserves a place where it can thrive. Persistence pays.

 

Happy Monday!

Native Bee (Lasioglossum (Homalictus) dotatum)

 

A wonderfully warm and sunny Spring day today so I checked out the area where these, new to me, bees are nesting. They are a furrowing bee, nesting in the ground.

I didn't have to wait long for a couple to pop up out of their nest.

This one sat still long enough for a couple of shots.

Surrounded by fall colours, this heron demonstrated patience and persistence while looking for fish in this small pond.

Bergisches Land, Germany

I have been watching this blackbird in the garden for several weeks - possibly even months - as it developed techniques to extract buggy nibbles from a feeder. Normally, blackbirds don't go near feeders but this one decided it had had enough of waiting for the starlings to deliver morsels. Initially, it started flying into the feeder in the hope some nibbles would fall. They did, but were mostly stolen by other birds on the ground. The technique developed into hovering by the feeder whilst plucking out the odd nibble. Finally, it learned to overcome feeder movement and perch on the base as it is here. This allows it to nibble nibbles to its heart's content.

This is exceptional!

Persistence
