" A cold wind sets upon my back
The sky is getting full
And turning black
I lost my way
When I lost you
I need a moment more
This can't be true
The one that I need
Help my see beyond the surface
My purpose
You were my north-star
You were my always
You were my compass
Now I've turn sideways
Who did you turn too
What can you say
Ashes, ashes.. "

We saw 3 owls at the ball fields and one at the library, but none had a background or habitat that was pleasing. After driving around town for a while and looking at the vacant lots (of which there are far fewer due to the building boom) we found this cutie that had a nice nest and surroundings.

This excavator had a primary purpose as an earth mover, yet in this snow covered image - it looks like it could have been contracted out to dig through the freshly fallen snow.
Looks can be deceiving.
**Captured less than two weeks ago. The snow has since then melted and Spring appears to have arrived.
Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, dipper, bucket and cab on a rotating platform known as the "house". The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. They are a natural progression from the steam shovels and often mistakenly called power shovels. All movement and functions of a hydraulic excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, with hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic motors. Due to the linear actuation of hydraulic cylinders, their mode of operation is fundamentally different from cable-operated excavators which use winches and steel ropes to accomplish the movements.

This beautiful warbler flits about very actively in the trees, usually holding its wings and tail partly spread, as if to show off their patches of color. At times it feeds more like a flycatcher than a typical warbler, hovering among the foliage and often flying out to grab insects in mid-air.

Some of us, like me, take photos for the beauty of what we see in SL. Others make their beauty, some tell stories with their art or they have art with purpose.
scylla.rhiadra's art has meaning and purpose. Her photos tell a story , some of the stories are hard hitting , socially relevant and profound.
She uses darkness to help illuminate her story in a way that leaves me in awe. I did not experience her art till she bumped into me one day at 777 motors. I checked out a few of her exhibits at different galleries and was blown away with the topics she covered and shared with her arts in an SL gallery. I felt like I could have been at any modern museum , maybe in SoHo New York.
I was honored when she asked if I'd take a pic with her. Her version shows how much she understands the use of lighting and darkness to share her vision. I took a photo, she captured a moment.

the most precisely articulated national purpose in recorded history. Not only is it a famous statement of purpose: it is also an admirable statement of purpose. Prior to July 4, 1776, the national purpose of nations had been to dominate... The American national purpose was the opposite: to liberate from domination; to set men free. All men are created equal.
We not only have a national purpose; we have one of such aspiration, such potentiality, such power of hope that we refer to it — or used to — as the American Dream :-)

Probably the most common duck species in North America, but still one of my favorites to photograph-especially when they're "hamming it up" for the cameras. There were three drakes surrounding a hen vying for her attention. This drake was bathing and stretching for minutes on end. He must have won her affection because he swam off with the hen. The two remaining drakes took a cold shower.

Bulls of this type were among the cattle shipped to the Cape of Good Hope by Willem Adriaan van der Stel during his time as governor of the Cape Colony (1699–1707).
The Blisterhead founding, a non-profit foundation for the development and conservation of the Blisterhead, was established in 2002.

"Arbutus unedo is an evergreen shrub or small tree in the family Ericaceae, native to the Mediterranean Basin and Western Europe. The tree is well known for its fruits, the arbutus berry, which bear some resemblance to the strawberry, hence the common name strawberry tree. However, it is not closely related to true strawberries of the genus Fragaria"
A recipe:
Strawberry Tree Crumble Cake
For the Cake:
1/3 cup butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sour cream room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 & 1/2 cups strawberry plant berries, sliced
For the Crumble Topping:
3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter melted then cooled
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and liberally grease an approx. 8 x 8 sized pan.
Beat together butter and sugar on high speed for 4-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add in egg and mix until combined. Slowly add in flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda until just combined then add sour cream, vanilla extract and mix until combined – but don’t over-mix!
Evenly spread the cake batter in pan then top with sliced strawberry plant berries.
For the Crumble Topping:
Whisk together flour, both sugars, salt, and cinnamon until mixed. Drizzle butter over flour mixture and using a fork, stir together until crumbs form.
Sprinkle crumbs over strawberries. Bake cake for 35-40 minutes OR until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for at least 20 minutes.

"What to ourselves in passion we propose,
The passion ending, doth the purpose lose.
The violence of either grief or joy
Their own enactures with themselves destroy:
Where joy most revels, grief doth most lament;
Grief joys, joy grieves, on slender accident.
This world is not for aye, not 'tis not strange
That even our loves should with our fortunes change;
For 'tis a question left us yet to prove,
Whether love lead fortune, or else fortune love.
The great man down, you mark his favorite flies;
The poor advanc'd makes friends of enemies.
And hitherto doth love on fortune tend;
For who not needs shall never lack a friend,
And who in want a hollow friend doth try,
Directly seasons him his enemy.
But, orderly to end where I begun,
Our wills and fates do so contrary run
That our devices still are overthrown;
Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own"
CSX B708 arrived in Shippensburg right as a short rain storm moved across the area. I'm a sucker for the Geep mother-slug sets, and when I saw the no-longer-a-GP30 was going to lead west to Letterkenny I stuck around despite the conditions. I'm glad I did.
Just as the rain tapered to a mist the setting sun found a hole in the clouds, setting off this brief rainbow. Luckily the train was close, and made the frame before the light quickly faded.
Didn't get what's the purpose of it but i caught in the photo. This was near Ness Beach, Shaldon.

Piping Plovers are nearly invisible until they run a short distance, stop, and tilt forward to pull an insect or worm from the soft sand. They tend to forage alone or in small groups sticking to the higher parts of the shoreline relative to other shorebirds.

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:18
This small church,located just south of Oakville,IA.,lost its purpose and its soul many years ago.In the spring it is nearly totally buried by foliage,only in the winter does its plight become apparent.Many years ago,the farmer who owns the land put a set of barn doors in the rear of the empty church for machinery storage.It was used for that purpose until the floor caved in-an old wagon still sets inside with its back axles buried beneath the church floor.I'm not making any judgements here,but I think the almighty might not take too kindly to see one of his houses used this way. Nonetheless,this is one of the most photogenic abandonments an explorer will ever come across-no matter how sad it may seem....
Have a great weekend and sliders sunday all!

Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers are mostly black and white with boldly patterned faces. Both sexes have red foreheads, and males also have red throats. Look for a long white stripe along the folded wing. Bold black-and-white stripes curve from the face toward a black chest shield and white or yellowish underparts.

The boy ran through the pigeons for posing purposes (not for me). The pigeons, the professionals here, jump up, flap theirs wings one or two, and land again in their never ending quest to pick the corn on the ground.
The purpose fo switching over to a canoe on the backwaters is to navigate one of the canals that are part of the waterway. All of the images I have shown up until now were taken on the lake. There is much to see along the tiny canals where people live. They are busy places just as what is reflected here.

Sunset was unbelievably colorful this evening – I had not planned to shoot sunset was planning for blue hour but ended up with a nice pink surprise.
I am not sure what the purpose of the structure is as its open air with three openings and nothing inside. One of the other ends has a great view of the Marina Bay Sands and Singapore Flyer. But sadly there is a monster triple headed flood light that destroys any nighttime shot :-)
Anchored with Purpose
The Korana carries everything in its path – branches, leaves, fragments of its own shore. The water is still high, still restless.
Yet this boat remains.
Half on land, half in the river. Secured by chain – not out of fear, but certainty. Suspended between movement and stillness.
Sometimes strength is not in drifting forward, but in knowing where you belong.

Mir koji nije slučajan
Korana nosi sve što joj se nađe na putu. Grančice, lišće, komadiće obale. Visoki vodostaj još uvijek ostavlja trag, a voda je mutna i nemirna.
Ipak, ovaj čamac ne ide nikamo.
Izvučen do pola na obalu, pramac već na suhom, krma još u rijeci. Čvrsto vezan lancem – ne iz straha, nego iz sigurnosti. Između nemira i mira, između odlaska i ostanka.
Možda smo svi ponekad takvi. Svijet teče, nosi, mijenja. A mi biramo stati. Ne zato što ne možemo dalje, nego zato što znamo gdje pripadamo.
Kinkaku-ji "Temple of the Golden Pavilion"), officially named Rokuon-ji, lit. "Deer Garden Temple"), is a Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan.
The garden complex is an excellent example of Muromachi period garden design. The Muromachi period is considered to be a classical age of Japanese garden design. The correlation between buildings and its settings were greatly emphasized during this period. It was a way to integrate the structure within the landscape in an artistic way. The garden designs were characterized by a reduction in scale, a more central purpose, and a distinct setting.
A minimalistic approach was brought to the garden design, by recreating larger landscapes in a smaller scale around a structure.
It is designated as a National Special Historic Site and a National Special Landscape, and it is one of 17 locations comprising the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto World Heritage Site. It is also one of the most popular buildings in Japan, attracting a large number of visitors annually.
The purpose of my drive yesterday was to locate the Northfield Tunnel of the defunct New York Ontario and Western Railroad. I believe when I took the picture I was practically above the portal. Perhaps just past this ridge. But my wounded feet and legs and my arthritic knees ruled out any bushwhacking. In looking for the tunnel I spotted this 1930's era car bodies rusting away.
