Over the last couple of days we've had a major hatching of dragonflies and they've filled the skies with their darting flight.
They are also landing and resting on our garden plants. This is a juvenile Common Green Darner and it modeled nicely for me :)

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!
No, it's not a turkey. I haven't seen any wild turkeys lately so this resting duck will have to do :)
There is much to be thankful for, no matter what our circumstances are. An attitude of gratitude is always in season.
Here's hoping your day will be filled with family, friends, and community! God bless.

Black-tailed Deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus)
"The black-tailed deer is one of nine subspecies of the mule deer. It was first recorded by the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804-06.
Black-tailed deer live in the temperate coniferous forests along the Pacific coast. These forests are characterized by cool temperatures and lots of rain, but an overall mild climate. Black-tailed deer do not therefore migrate in response to seasonal changes, unlike some of the other mule deer subspecies. Instead, black-tailed deer often spend their entire life in the same general area.
Black-tailed deer can be distinguished from mule deer by their larger tail, the back of which is completely covered with black or dark brown hairs. Mule deer have smaller tails in which only the tip is covered with black hairs. Black-tailed deer are generally smaller than mule deer."

This guy took a brief rest during the rut. When the rut is once in full action there’s no more time to rest…southern Denmark
Taken fifteen years ago, this is one of my first ever shots of a bull moose. Found him near Grand Lake, Colorado.
The last of my oldies series. I'm heading back to that area tomorrow hoping to find some of his descendants, so this is my last post for a couple of weeks.
I blasted my arms a bit today but here's my slipped down singlet and a nice pose for all the pit hair lovers out there
This 6 footer was resting on a fallen tree just above a swampy area. Maybe catching what light breeze there was or.....waiting on his next meal. Taken at Occoquan refuge, Virginia
This dragonfly (a common darter?) was busy enjoying a bounty of insects that had come to feed on our local heather. The hunting was good and I was lucky to catch it resting for a short while.
Back rested and bright eyed and bushy tailed I am starting with one of my favorite views of Haarlem which is the backside approach to the Nieuwe Kerk the scene always appears to me as a picture waiting to be captured and a fitting end to my reworks of Haarlem.
Originally there stood a cramped and falling down gothic St. Anne's chapel which the Nieuwe Kerk replaced in 1649 by Jacob van Campen’s Gothic austere design as Haarlem’s first stone built protestant church but keeping the locally designed Renaissance tower by Lieven de Key by request of the city .
This style of protestant church was designed to focus the congregants attention on the pulpit instead of the ornamentation and the outside was to represent the temple keep in Jerusalem.
The Nieuwe Kerk also served a more practical reason as well, in the winter the Grote Kerk is freezing and there is not an easy way to heat it comfortably to make it bearable for the attendees so during the colder months of the year the congregation moves into a much smaller warmer space of the New Church.
I took this on Sept 13th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 1/10 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Thank you in advance to everyone that comments and/or faves my picture. They are all immensely appreciated.
Laura Ellen Bacon's Course
Course is deeply curvaceous work that descends into the River Cray, a chalk stream*, at Hall Place. Being peaceful yet uncanny, having a quiet, seeping stillness but also a momentum that seems to be guiding its weight towards the clear depths below.
My lovely bicycle - he's having to take some enforced rest as I have injured my knee, but hopefully it won't be too long before I'm back in the saddle - HSoS!
The lonely an mournful burying ground of long departed souls where the Endless: Permafrost wreaks havoc on their final resting place. slurl - maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Haraiki%20Bay/4/88/23
I was looking up at the sky and taking photos of the beautiful clouds above when this fell in front of me.
There's so much life all around. The fields and trees are green and vibrant and yet this leaf chose this time of year to find its final resting place.
