One is never really alone when hiking Tre Cime di Lavaredo circuit.... and this was the off-season! After turning this corner, we had almost completed the route.

Now that I'm at home from my trip to the Dolomites, you can find me on Twitter

Sammie gives me about ten minutes before she is done with pictures....this was about 9 minutes in.

Final size big one: length 12cm, height9,5cm width 5cm

Final size little one: lenght 6cm, height 5,5cm, width 2cm

Really liking the Canon R6’s ability to handle noise! This photo was shot at 10,000 ISO

Thinking About What Really Matters in Life .... you !!

Another obsession of mine are HATS.. even in SL! Be prepared to be dazzled by these HATS!

My male BFF bought me this hat as a joke... I'm so laughing now!!

Marybeth really saved me for the Macro Mondays theme, "Beads" with her pearls that I bought for her back in 1991 when I was away at school for six months. The clasp and pearls measure approximately 1.25 inches.

Shot with: VOIGTLANDER, 125mm f/2.5 SL, MACRO APO-LANTHAR @ f/8 w/Nikon PK-13 27.5mm Extension Tube), 21 Layer Focus Stack Rendered w/Helicon Focus (B, R3, S2). Foreground layer used for bokeh. Pearls set on silver sparkle paper.

Really enjoyed doing this. Took a lot of time but we certainly learn new skills in the Group. Thanks Maria.

Looking forward to seeing your images folks. Have a great Saturday.

Got really lucky that the morning was so calm and the water was still, except for the occasional duck. On the left is the South Sister and on the right is Broken Top.

Located in the heart of Central Oregon just 25 miles west of Bend, Sparks Lake is a large, shallow lake. Situated near the northwest edge of Mount Bachelor, the lake boasts spectacular views of Broken Top and South Sister in addition to Mount Bachelor. Sparks Lake was formed by volcanic activity in the area over 10,000 years ago. Pristine alpine streams flow into this beautiful lake.

Sparks Lake is a natural body of water near the crest of the central Cascade Range in Deschutes County.

I'd much rather hang out in a cafe. That's where things are really happening.

Joe Sacco

The Blue Water Café is located in downtown Grand Marais, Minnesota on the beautiful shores of Lake Superior and is a long time favorite of locals and visitors.

Blue Water Café is a family owned business and provides a full menu. We serve breakfast all day, lunch, and dinner. Our omelettes have been acknowledged as being one of the top ten in the state of Minnesota.

Whether you are wanting to shop, dine, relax, fish, ski, hike or sit on the beach, Blue Water Café is located in the middle of everything.

We recently added a vacation rental above the Café that can sleep 6 guests and provides a great view of downtown Grand Marais, Lake Superior and the Sawtooth Mountains.

CPKC is really pushing the limits of their mainline in the Mississippi River floodwaters in downtown Davenport, IA as an empty ballast train heads north with KCS 3967 and KCS 4405.

Another northbound would follow the ballast train 1.5 hours later and the mainline will possibly shut down yet today with floodgates closing at Waterworks.

I really like autumn but not these grey November days. So here's a shot from a walk on a sunny day in the Harz Mountains in October ☀️ Have a sunshiny Sunday everybody ☀️

The Ilse valley (German: Ilsetal) is the ravine of the Ilse stream in the northern boundary of the Harz mountain range in Germany. Part of the Harz National Park, it runs from the town of Ilsenburg at the foot of the mountain range up to the source region near the summit of the Brocken massif, the highest mountain of the range. The scenic valley is a popular hiking area (Wikipedia)

Thank you so much for inviting me to this beautiful picture, pose created by Vivien , was really fun doing it! ❤️

Really stuck when trying to find something magnetic around the house until I remembered these magnetic scrabble letters!

Imagine forgetting your ice cubes on a miserable wet day in Glasgow.....

I really love modern art and I enjoy going to art galleries and looking at art that was made in my own lifetime especially and, even more so, in the last decade. But, after spending about 3 -4 hours in an art gallery, I start to feel a little overwhelmed because there is just a lot of emotions and processing for me around art and that's when I usually clutch my chest and tell my partner, "I think I'm having an Art Attack!"

An Art Attack is a little less serious than a heart attack but it's just as visceral in terms of the way your heart rate speeds up, you start sweating, and feeling that panic that comes from taking in too much of the world all at once.

Anyway, in Rome it was proper hot and we needed air conditioning so visiting The Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporane (also known as La Galleria Nazionale) was a welcome adjustment to body temperature and, as I said before on a different photo, I really enjoyed their Time is Out of Joint exhibit. But, I happened to notice this woman in the distance who was having an Art Attack.

After about twenty minutes of her head in her hands, she recovered enough to keep going but I think we should all learn to take symptoms of an Art Attack more seriously. Don't avoid going to art galleries because of this possibility but perhaps pace yourself! Art holds ideas and emotions and purpose. One's heart can only take so much!

Well, not really . . . it just seems as if when I photograph one of these cattle egrets they often have a look that appears as if they are angry at something. In reality, I am certain they are as happy as any other bird. This guy was found at Circle B Bar Reserve near Lakeland, Florida. He measures about 19-20 inches (48-51 cm) from beak-tip to tail-tip.

Is it just a dream or is it real ... you really don't know sometimes in these times ...

I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside

I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside

This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in

So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice...

Really bright idea of nipping 'H' to New Brighton to watch the sun set on New Year's Day.....along with the rest of the Wirral it seemed! Never used to be so busy like that when I was a kid......must choose somewhere quieter next year!

I really enjoyed this exchange. I love when chemistry comes through in a photo. I really love SL sometimes, where a random encounter can be something so artistic. He made me a believer.

I have to wonder if this was the butterfly that Mohamid Ali was referring to when he said "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee"

These beauties really seem to float as they gather around their host plant.

Host plants in my yard: Passiflora Biflora and Corky Stem vine.

Have a beautiful Tuesday, happy snapping.

Really don't remember I made this photo....so also unknown to me what it is.....

sorry guys, post and run. been really busy lately...will catch up with you soon.

Really into March now where I am from we have many grey days...

I really liked the way this bin stood out and the colour, as seen on a walk.
