The tallest of a small stand of Teasel - invasive but not aggressive - submit. They will disappear in the next snowfall.
Remnants of a weather battered wharf.

This is a beech sapling overlooking a pond with the reflections of the surrounding trees.
I stumbled over this old tractor tires an early morning. They have to be quite old, because this area became an nature reserve in 1984. It is a fantastic area if you are into birds, but it is ok for landscapes as well.
This is a dress I designed and made recently out of some quilting fabric. It also has matching cushions. I will be doing a shoot using it.
I have created a new facebook page here for behind the scenes and other stuff. You can become my fan if you like.
Hop-A-Long is back today, much to the chagrin of the little birds, as you can see on his talons
taken from my back deck just now

Remnants of Fall most of the leaves have fallen and are accumulating in different areas but still adding some color, found in North Carolina.
So this is another composition of this iconic place called Crystal Mill and probably the last. Don't want to wear out a good thing. I like the fallen down boards around it, its hard to tell what they were at one point but it adds another layer of interesting texture.
after the valentine very late bloomers first come the golden scintillating remnants of last summer near the subtle blue of the lake
🎶 GOTHIC STORM - REMNANTS OF PEACE
“I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more.”
Anne Frank
Old fort structure from the 1880's in southern New Mexico, USA, where times were very hard in the desert. I got an eerie feeling while photographing here. (Probably the pacifist in me). Thank you for the visitations!
Music:
Thinking of a beloved family member who is no longer with us. Will always cherish memories of the last moments spent together.

Kimball County, Nebraska
This was once a pretty substantial house - it seems odd that the west facade is blown open - it was a masonry wall. Must have had a serious structural problem; maybe two many windows for the blasting west wind. To the right you can see the foundation remains of what was likely a large barn.

Of all Spain's tens of thousands of historical monuments, the Alhambra stands supreme. The final manifestation of the doomed Moorish civilization in the peninsula, its history also mirrors that the of Spain in the succeeding six centuries. Taken by Fernando and Isabel in a surge that culminated in Catholic Spain ruling vast tracts of Europe and New World, it, like the country, eventually fell into dereliction and then use as a barracks in the war-torn 19th century.
Rediscovered by Romantic travelers, it is now one of Europe's most-visited destinations!
The defensible hills were the principal reason why the Zirid rulers moved their town from nearby Elvira to Granada in the early 11th century. A natural fortress, the Sabika hill on which the Alhambra stands had previously been used by the Romans and Visigoths, but only a few remnants have been found from those eras. The Zirids fortified the hill, although their main palace was on the facing Albayzín. The Alhambra as we see it today was principally a construction of the later Nasrid dynasty, who rose to power in the 1230s and established the hill as their seat of power. The Nasrids ruled Granada until 1492 and are responsible for the most of the many buildings that form the Alhambra complex. Of these, their royal palace complex is what inspires visitors with the most awe. After Boabdil surrendered the city and fortress to the Catholic Monarchs, many modifications were made to the existing structures, and several new edifices were thrown up, not least of which is the bulky Renaissance Palacio de Carlos V. The name Alhambra is from Arabic al-qalat al-hambra, meaning the red fort, perhaps from the colour of the sandstone, especially in the setting sun.
