There has to be better places to bunk down than under a busy overpass bridge but John Dickson decided it's the place to be for the 2022 Brisbane Street Arts Festival. This festival held in May has added lots of new and wonderful murals all over Brisbane.

 

Sadly, we drove out early to find some of the newer works today, firstly on the walls of the Brisbane Showgrounds only to find the street parked in and traffic controllers on, picked the wrong day to take shots of a whole pile of new murals as there was a motor show (bah, humbug) at the grounds. And everyone had motored in early!

 

Then went to a spot in a side street in Milton and the location is a street market. Not a hope in hell! We were not entirely defeated though.

 

But it does look like we picked the wrong week to give up chasing postmen!

 

This shot is in Albion, Brisbane.

 

That's it today folks, gotta go and feed the Galahs, our dear little Cherubs as my wife calls them.

Riddled with bullet holes, tagged and rusted, this ‘37 or ‘38 Chevrolet truck rests facing east in the one of the most remote places I’ve ever been.

Concealer Moth (Machetis versatrix)

"And this our life, exempt from public haunts,

Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,

Sermons in stones, and good in everything.

I would not change it."

William Shakespeare, As You Like It

Traverser des Tempêtes et rester debout .

Pleasingly encountered on Crooked Lake/ Anoka County..central Minnesota.

Frei wie der Wind wirst Du sein,

mit offenen Armen über den Meeren wohnen,

im Morgenrot über die Bergkuppen ziehen,

mit den Wolken im Gleichklang schweben,

im Herbst über die weiten Felder treiben,

und am Ende der Reise wird Dich der Abendwind wieder betten .... irgendwo.

 

You will be free as the wind

dwell over the seas with open arms,

move over the hilltops in the dawn,

float in unison with the clouds,

drift across the wide fields in autumn,

and at the end of the journey the evening wind will bed you down again ... somewhere.

The monarch butterflies are thriving here along Lake Michigan's western shore.

Love how my Aunties cat puts her paws when she is resting rather sweet l think?

Before sailing I must rest,

For the waves will soon be my test.

The sea calls with its endless song,

But first, I must rest, before long.

A small feather resting in the shadows. Have a restful friday everyone!

On dark damp day, my reflective mood brought me to the churchyard of All Saints' Church. The doctor who brought me into this world is buried here with her husband. I don't remember her slapping me on the bottom. but little doubt she did. This is a much older tomb, one of a few that I saw today.

All Saints' Church, is in Childwall, Liverpool, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is the only medieval church remaining in the Metropolitan borough of Liverpool. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Liverpool.

It has been a rough morning. Strong winds played havoc with the favorite resting place for these seagulls…

Looking almost like it did back in its early days of service, Illinois Central SD70 class leader, #1000, sits at Gilman, IL with an SD70M-2 resting until their run to Champaign later in the day.

Good place to rest from flitting about the garden on a hazy afternoon!

Right before sunset the shadows of the High Line's cast iron wall fall on a "peel-up" bench. These benches look like they are "peeling up" from the floor and were specially designed for the High Line, "a 1.45-mile-long elevated linear park, greenway and rail trail created on a former New York Central Railroad spur on the west side of Manhattan in New York City."

I really appreciate it !

It was the middle of the afternoon and rest time for some of the animals on the Kilimanjaro Safari ride at Disney's Animal Kingdom. I photographed this high ISO shot of the Rhino from a moving vehicle in deep shade.

Several years ago I wandered through one of our local cemeteries. I came upon this small chapel among the graves and headstones.

 

I thought it made a respectful and lovely image.

I've used several effects to arrive at this serene rendering. May all who are in this scene rest in peace.
