These huge bales of straw remind me of enormous cotton reels, made from golden thread. And one day they'll be gone, because the giants will have come to collect them to spin into great cloaks of gold..... well, OK, I'm dreaming again ! But it would be lovely if that were the case. Instead, they're used for feeding cattle and making them bedding for the winter.

Taken in a field not too far from home, and processed using PicMonkey and Topaz Impression 2, finished in Topaz Glow. The birds are from a photo I took many years ago and used as a texture.

I do hope you like my fantasy. Thank you, as always, for all your support and faves, comments and / or invites - I do appreciate them all.

Have a wonderful weekend and may the weather be kind to you, as it was for me on this day.

I'm not sure of the species of this tree but this is it's natural colour. It so reminded me of autumn despite being the middle of summer.

a HAPPY weekend ahead

Reminds me of, ' Apples and Oranges ' ! These are 2022 yield from our terrace garden.

this image reminds me of photos I have seen of divers floating in the sea and looking up to the sun above the water ... the water sparkling and glittering. I am no diver so this is just me phantasizing a bit; but it's the reason I chose this macro for today's theme "blue" to celebrate Earth

This is a close-up of my favourite cyan multi-faceted lantern / glass vase; sidelit with a reading lamp (you are looking into the vase with the rim on the left hand side; the rim is just under 7 mm wide).

Reminds me of my childhood summers when I spent the holidays with my grandparents. On the outskirts of the village there were cornfields, surrounded by cherry trees and underneath grew flowers like the ones in the picture above: poppies, cornflowers, but also camomile, from which I braided flower wreaths that I put over my long hair.

Macro Mondays - theme of February 6, 2023: Made of Metal

This scene somehow reminds me of the epic science fiction 'Dune' by Frank Herbert (I loved the novels)

But it's actually the serrated blade of a bread knife - taken in the kitchen in front of our red kettle (also made of metal) and illuminated with a warm light

[ Pentax K-70 + manual Laowa 60mm ultra macro @ f/5.6 and 2x magnification ]

HMM everyone !

I've got a heavily runny nose, so I might not be able to comment a lot this evening; but I will try to catch up

Reminds me of my childhood

This backdrop reminded me of one of my favorite movies. Scarface. So I went with it.

Tell me some of your favorite movie quotes.

Scarface Quotes:

{Manny] Oh, well what's coming to you, Tony?

[Tony] The world, chico, and everything in it.

Sanitation? I told you to tell ’em that you was in a sanitarium. Not sanitation, sanitarium.

Downstream from RMNP, near Lyons, CO. The formations remind me of Franconia Notch State Park, in NH.

It reminds me of the beautiful song by the Canadian singer Terry Jacks: Seasons in the Sun.

Park Hyo Shin - Memories resemble Love

www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZIbDXv7cfA

The wind that’s inside of my heart

is blowing

Like you always have,

you only shook my heart

and left me with

only memories

I lost my way because

I only followed you

without any doubts

so I’ve reached this far

But I’m on an unknown road

and you aren’t with me

Take them,

even our happy memories

Because with out you,

it’ll only be a burden to me

When I keep reviving them

my longing only increases

I end up going back on that road

and it makes me stop walking

Memories are like love

so I’ll keep looking back

That place still has you in it

so I think that’s why it hurts

Because you might glance at me

once, at least once

I’m still waiting for you today

What do I do now

No matter how much I try to escape from you

I can’t even go a few feet away

I live each day

with the same situation

with the same burden

No matter where I look, I can only see you

The eyes you looked at me with

keeps troubling my mind

so I close my eyes again

and try to erase you

but the lips firmly closed tremble

and the tears I’ve held back flow

Memories are like love

so I’ll keep looking back

That place still has you in it

so I think that’s why it hurts

Because you might glance at me

once, at least once

I’m still waiting for you today

What do I do if one day

I turn around and

you’re looking at me

You know well that

I won’t be able to say anything

Memories ride the wind

so it’ll end up being scattered one day but

No matter how I cry or shout

and try to feign ignorance

I still wait for

that person I can’t forget

You know me well

🎶 KATIE MELUA - REMIND ME TO FORGET

Might be going down in flames

The Ashes the Silver Birches rain

Oh to leave the city shouting

The silent doubting

The rules are set and they feel so mean and binding

The leaves, they remind me to forget

At long tables, I sit and hear my name

And I see yours written high on who's to blame

It's so tempting to go out there

Feel unprotected

And then just say, "See, he left me naked"

The leaves, they remind me to forget

There’s seven reasons why

And yours are different to mine

Then I watch them in the clouds dance

But I still can't tell who won

Another bed's gone from two to one

To one

Might be going down in flames

I feel your hand when the window says it's rain

Oh, you know but it's not real

Like the birds sing

Like the trees lean and the seas gleam

The leaves, they remind me to forget

The leaves, they remind me to forget

Reminds me of a Guido Borelli print

Reminds me of a snake with open mouth...

Reminds me of someone....

Kind of reminded me of a deep space nebula shot!

Was torn between the shot for this week, flip-flopped between this and a high speed capture created by dropping coins into a shot glass of water, but ended up with this. It’s a cobweb on our outside tap that I misted with a water atomiser and lit with LED lights.

HMM!

Observing Acorn Woodpeckers always reminds me of the adage "with friends like these, who needs enemies." As they live in a unique extended communal groups, it's a safe bet that these two are of the same group if not related genetically. Despite this connection, they are very aggressive towards one another. The exception is when a different species of bird gets to close, then they work together like a well oiled military unit to beat the snot out of the interloper. Despite their aggression (perhaps because of it) they are my favorite birds.

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

Tired of living like a blind man

I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breaking

And I've been wrong, I've been down,

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

It's not like you didn't know that

I said I love you and I swear I still do

And it must have been so bad

Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how, you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how, you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breaking

And I've been wrong, I've been down,

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breaking

And I've been wrong, I've been down,

Been to the bottom of every bottle

These five words in my head

Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, are we having fun yet?

Yeah, yeah, no, no.

This picture reminded me that once everything we are going through now, that is is always the darkest before the dawn. And it is going to get a lot worse, so pray, send positive thoughts to everyone you know..........FROM a distance I will add. Love today as you never know what tomorrow holds.

I'm a frontline worker, so please shout out to those front line workers saving your loved ones and friends. xo

🎼: Shake it Out~ Florence and the Machine~

✈️ : The Getaway

Regrets collect like old friends

Here to relive your darkest moments

I can see no way, I can see no way

And all of the ghouls come out to play

And every demon wants his pound of flesh

But I like to keep some things to myself

I like to keep my issues strong

It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind

I can never leave the past behind

I can see no way, I can see no way

I'm always dragging that horse around

Our love is pastured such a mournful sound

Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

So I like to keep my issues strong

But it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa

And it's hard to dance with a devil…

In memory of Art Davison

4 months

I know it's not a real word - I made it up :) It was a bit chilly and drizzly out on Thursday. It had been raining much harder and my coat was soaked, but I wanted to go to the beach. The woman in the photo had stopped to talk to me, and I waited until she was at the end of the pier to shoot this.

Zoom in and take a look around. Portrait mode in Flickr doesn't work that well, unless you can get closer.
