... or in other words: Reduced to the essential. Please forgive me if I come again with a picture of a butterfly. At first I wanted to present something completely different, but I could not detach myself from this picture. This little beauty just fascinated me because it's so simple in expression. (The search for a winter picture failed yesterday. Is it really winter now? We have weather like spring.)
It is the beautiful memories of warm, comfortable summer evenings that I associate with this photo. Yes, I repeat myself, but I am a summer child and wait so much for warmer, sunnier days, when I can marvel at the beauty of nature. Then I can and may dream again and forget the time. Yes, I am a dreamer !!!
It would fill my heart with joy if I could elicit a smile from you with this picture. I thank you for your understanding that I could not present a real winter picture again, but what is not can still be. Winter is not over, but spring is not so far away !!!
Dedication: Only for my dear birth child, which I would like to prepare with this picture a little joy. I wish you all the best, many wonderful and happy moments in the new year and the most important thing: Stay healthy !!!
Listen to this dreamy and lovely music. Enjoy your time.

Dignity (a.k.a. Dignity of Earth & Sky) is a sculpture on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River near Chamberlain, South Dakota.[2] The 50-foot (15.24 meter) high stainless steel statue by South Dakota artist laureate Claude Lamphere[3] depicts an Indigenous woman in Plains-style dress receiving a star quilt. According to Lamphere, the sculpture honors the culture of the Lakota and Dakota peoples who are indigenous to South Dakota.[4] Assisting Lamphere were sculptors Tom Trople, Jim Maher, Andy Roltgen, and Grant Standard. Automotive paint expert Brook Loobey assisted with the colors for the quilt, and Albertson Engineering of Rapid City, SD ensured the sculpture would endure the strong winds common in the area. Wikipedia. She is truly stunning.

Tonglen, the Tibetan practice of “sending and receiving,” is one of the most powerful—and radical—ways of cultivating compassion.
When practicing tonglen, we consciously choose to take in the suffering of others. The practitioner breathes in pain and suffering, and sends out compassion and goodness on the exhale.
“It’s a simple and natural exchange: you see suffering, you take it in with the inbreath, you send out relief with the outbreath ....”

The Giant's Causeway (Irish: Clochán an Aifir) is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic fissure eruption. It is located in County Antrim on the north coast of Northern Ireland, about three miles (4.8 km) northeast of the town of Bushmills.
It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986 and a national nature reserve by the Department of the Environment for Northern Ireland in 1987. In a 2005 poll of Radio Times readers, the Giant's Causeway was named the fourth-greatest natural wonder in the United Kingdom.
The tops of the columns form stepping stones that lead from the cliff foot and disappear under the sea. Most of the columns are hexagonal, although some have four, five, seven, or eight sides. The tallest are about 12 metres (39 ft) high, and the solidified lava in the cliffs is 28 metres (92 ft) thick in places.
Much of the Giant's Causeway and Causeway Coast World Heritage Site is owned and managed by the National Trust. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Northern Ireland, receiving over 998,000 visitors in 2019. Access to the Giant's Causeway is free of charge: it is not necessary to go via the visitor centre, which charges a fee. The remainder of the site is owned by the Crown Estate and several private landowners. Wikipedia

So much drama in the sky that morning - the sun rises up from the bank of low clouds, happily giving out its beautiful light while Mother Cloud gladly receiving it while sending Baby Cloud off; the ripples on the lake was an added bonus to balance out the composition.
We finally left Houston a few days ago; am still trying to catch up on your posts.
I feel it's appropriate to post the very last photo which I captured in Clear Lake for the year.
I wish you a relaxing Sunday! 💖

Upon receiving the revised and expanded edition of "Wildflowers of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick & Prince Edward Island" by (the late) Mary Primrose, photographer, & Marian Munro, author.
I just can't get enough of these beautiful scallop shells. This is the original pile, which has been slowly decreasing in size after each visit I make with my carrier bag. I've decided I'm going to get crafty and attempt to make something beautiful with the ones I've collected. Just as well I don't do Christmas presents, otherwise all my friends would be receiving inspired scallop shell creations whether they liked it or not.
Las nubes medias, como los altoestratos o los altocúmulos, hacen que la luz se disperse de forma diferente, por lo que el atardecer se tiñe de un naranja o rojo más intenso. En ocasiones parece que el cielo está encendido, recibiendo el nombre de candilazo.

Middle clouds, such as Altostratus or Altocumulus, cause light to scatter differently, causing the sunset to turn a more intense orange or red. Sometimes it seems that the sky is lit, receiving the name of lamp.
