It just goes to show how exposure and lighting can make a huge difference. This was taken a few seconds after the shot of the same seed head I posted a couple of weeks ago. The difference is all in camera...
Rest Stop a small flock of crows came over and this one decided to stop and rest for a few minutes, shot in North Carolina.
Seems like a good place to hang out but in Newfoundland wind it didn't stay here long and I ended up chasing that red leaf until I lost it.
To all of my dear and close American friends.....may you and your loved ones be blessed each and every day......
And for all of my friends from the rest of the world..... well .... the same wishes apply...every day we should give Thanks...for who we have.....
after sunset we found 3 lionesses that had been feasting on a blue wildebeest they had killed earlier that day .
They were resting near a waterhole and this large lioness was lying down on a mound

PLEASE, LOOK AT THIS PICTURE ON BLACK!
And suddenly, without a warning, she stopped walking and sat down in the green green grass, between the flowers, extending her small hand towards him, her face ornated with that bright smile his company always gave her.
Looking up while slightly squinting her eyes, because of the sun warming this bright spring afternoon, or maybe because of how much light was overflowing from him, she grabbed the hand he had just reached out to her.
Her lips parted delicately and she spoke with the softest voice, rounding every word with that tenderness that they always shared with one another :
" - Kneel down Love,
rest that heavy head on my lap,
close those tired eyes of yours,
fall asleep on me for a bit Lover,
come and let's enjoy this moment together,
for I want time to stop exactly right now.
Let me run my fingers in your hair,
and hum you the sweetest melody you inspire me,
cause Treasure, we were made for this "

Most of the things we need to be most fully alive never come in busyness. They grow in rest.

Plaza del Pilar in Zaragoza (Spain) is the largest pedestrian square in Europe and is a Marian pilgrimage site and a gathering place for residents and visitors alike. Looking over the plaza is a sculptural monument dedicated to Francisco de Goya, the city’s most famous painter. The whole monument consists of a simple cylindricalcenotaph of the painter himself with stone tablets alluding to both him and his daughter-in-law's family.
On the western side, you’ll find the Fountain of Hispanidad. This consists of a ramp with water flowing down it and a pond, which together, from above, take the shape of Latin America. A further three marble blocks represent Columbus’ ships.
As well as the Basílica del Pilar, there are other buildings which embellish and enhance this wonderful plaza. These include the Cathedral of El Salvador , La Seo which rises up on the eastern side of the plaza, The Lonja de Mercaderes , a Renaissance-style building built from brick with similar architecture to the palaces.
The town hall was built in the second half of the 20 th century in keeping with the style and materials of the rest of the buildings. The two sculptures on either side of the main entrance will particularly grab your attention. They’re the work of Aragonese sculptor Pablo Serrano and represent Saint Valerius (the city’s patron saint) and a guardian angel.
In the small square behind the Fountain of Hispanidad, you’ll find the church of San Juan de los Panetes, with its distinctive leaning tower. With the plaza’s overall sense of harmony and the slenderness of the buildings surrounding it, it’s no surprise that the square is known as “the living room of the city”.
The beautiful landscape of the Atacama desert, with two donkeys taking a rest. The two volcanos are Licancabur (5920m, considered as being a holy mountain) and Juriques (5705m) (Atacama desert, Chile)
Fresh Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly on momentary shutdown.
Common from late spring through early fall.
A male monarch butterfly resting on a thick-spike gayfeather flower. I was happy to capture the rolled up proboscis. I've seen monarchs occasionally since the spring, typically one at a time, but few of them have been willing to pose like this. It will be interesting to see what the fall migration brings.
As we see the sun first peeking over the mountains in the background, these cows were waking after a restful night.
I was walking one of the trails in Anchorage when I came upon this young bull moose who was laying down in the snow and chewing his cud while a light snow fell. You can see the antlers beginning to bud out above the eye. When around a moose you watch the ears for signs of stress. If they fold the ears back it means they are stressed and could then charge you. Most animal attacks in Alaska are caused by moose, so you have to be wary.
