To my Flickr community friends. In this moment of darkness, I think of you. We will get through this together, with mutual support. A commentor and group administrator, Ron Masters below, reminds me of this quote by Albert Camus “Au milieu de l'hiver, j'ai découvert en moi un invincible été.”, so apt and heart warming. And when spring returns, listen to Félix Leclerc's Hymne au Printemps, www.youtube.com/watch?v=og6-KgMYtdA.
I was just reminded of our visit to the fabulous Azores islands which I can't believe has been four years ago. We spent our Birthday there in December 2012 and discovered an amazing story of volcanic activity, craters and calderas and a mighty eruption that took place between 1957 and 1958 at this spot: Capelo, where the Capelinhos volcano erupted during a considerable time. To see what's left of it is quite impressive.
From Wikipedia: "A volcanic eruption lasted for 13 months, from September 27, 1957 until October 24, 1958, which may have been two overlapping volcanic eruptions. While enlarging the land by 2.4 km², it spawned 300 seismic events, hurled ash 1 km, destroyed 300 houses in the parishes of Capelo and Praia do Norte and caused the evacuation of 2,000 people (emigration to the US and Canada). On October 25, the volcano entered a period of dormancy. It is a part of an active fissural volcanic complex which creates multiple seismic and volcanic events."
Happy Textural Tuesday!
reminds me of our rhino hunt with the camera in Namibia... far away in time and area
FAR AWAY PLACES is the topic for Saturday, July 15, 2023 Group Our Daily Challenge.
This reminds me the Greek or Roman mythology: The Three Cyclopes. ***All staring at me***
[Don't worry if you can't see, 😄]
[A cyclops ( plural Cyclopes ) in Greek mythology and later Roman mythology, is a member of a primordial race of giants, each with a SINGLE EYE in the CENTER of his FOREHEAD. The word "Cyclops" literally means "ROUND-EYED" or "CIRCLE-EYED".] Wikipedia
... a Japanese wallpaper I seen in a gorgeous restaurant. The photo itself is not great by any means but I saved it because of a rare bird I rarely see Eastern Phobee and to me it is so very pretty sitting on blossom tree. Happy Day to all and enjoy always.
(These are fast and it was hopping all over the place. Had old bad lens and was hard to capture it. I know excuses ....)

There are people who live alone
like the forgotten twig of wheat
the world around is an empty plain
and they, alone in the darkness
like the forgotten twig of wheat
lonely people
There are people who live alone
like the rocks of the sea
the world is an endless ocean
and they, mute, stooped and alone
windswept rocks
lonely people

The cone reminded me of vanilla ice cream with caramel on top...
"White Dome Geyser is a conspicuous cone-type geyser located in the Lower Geyser Basin along Firehole Lake Drive. It's 12-foot-high geyser cone is one of the largest in the park." Wiki
I observed it going off in the distance but the show was over by the time I got here. It's eruptions occur ranging from 15 minutes to 3 hours. It reaches a height of 30 feet. The show is quite impressive, but short, lasting approximately 2 minutes.
Friday is here! Have a wonderful Friday and weekend ahead.
He reminds me of a tiny cartoon character...
ID? I don't think he's a skipper but I'm not sure.
Update: Thank you for your ID help... he seems to be either a Fiery Skipper (Hylephila phyleus), or a Taxiles Skipper Butterfly. I'll be sure to ask him next time he visits.
The long exposure reminded me of an ermine stole around the Crown Mine Buildings at Botallack, hence the cryptic title.
You have to try and contemplate what life was like for those hardy Cornish Miners who braved the conditions here on the rugged Atlantic Coast. Life was tough as they tunnelled away underneath the seabed to extract the rock some 400 metres below the seabed!
As you can see the conditions were quite conducive to an LE, once I found a place where I could shelter from the gusty winds. It was unusual that the wind was actually blowing out to sea, which made the cliff edge and the narrow traverse out to this spot quite precarious. I had visions of the tripod and camera disappearing over the edge.
Amsterdam Light Festival - Colourful, flickering and illuminated Korean signs compete for your attention on the Schippersgracht in Amsterdam. EON SLD’s installation contains about 40 replicas of traditional signs, neon signs and lightboxes that represent the 1950s to the present, as well as several newly designed signs. The jumble in which these signs have been presented on the quay are typical of a Korean shopping street.
A tree reminds us that to grow up,
towards the spiritual, the abstract,
it is necessary to be well rooted in the earth,
in the concrete, in the matter.
It is like the human being, a being that unites heaven and earth.
He is the bearer of the finished fruit, and at the same time,
it is in the process of development.
We, as human beings,
we are the maximum expression of creation and at the same time
we are still in the process of growth.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Setup in a nearby town museum. I recommend to view it in original size, at least my German friends may remind some stuff from their childhood :)

I had to laugh when I saw this pair of brolgas momentarily stopping the sheep in their tracks as they strutted through this lush green paddock! They reminded me of slender fashion models gliding by on a catwalk as the admiring audience looked on!
Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday!
St Andrews harbour is home to a fleet of around a dozen small fishing vessels, landing high quality shellfish from around the nearby shores, which are sold locally, nationally and exported. A small, but growing, number of pleasure craft are also based within the sheltered waters of the Inner basin. Quoted from the St Andrews Harbour Trust website.
Reminds me of 1930s movies. I keep expecting Sam Spade to come walking out of that office at the end of the hall, a scowl on his face. San Francisco city hall.
