Same Same BUT Different

This is the same flower as the one I posted yesterday, but taken at a lower pov and with a different focus. Here the sun is the focus instead of the flower and I filtered it to bring out the sunshine. This might be what my friend Gunta has suggested to be a flowerscape rather than a flower shoot! Which one appeal to you more?
Same area as the latest shots. Four captures blended for the sea motion. It looks like a long single exposure, but the water catches the light in an other way.
Cosmos is a genus, with the same common name of Cosmos, consisting of flowering plants in the sunflower family. This particular flower was grown in our garden and reminds me of strawberries and cream!
Cosmos is native to scrub and meadowland in Mexico where most of the species occur, as well as the southern United States, Arizona, Central America, and to South America as far south as Paraguay. One species, C. bipinnatus, is naturalized across much of the eastern United States and eastern Canada. It is also widespread over the high eastern plains of South Africa, where it was introduced via contaminated horsefeed imported from Argentina during the Anglo-Boer War.
Cosmos are herbaceous perennial plants or annual plants growing 0.3–2 m (1 ft 0 in–6 ft 7 in) tall. The leaves are simple, pinnate, or bipinnate, and arranged in opposite pairs. The flowers are produced in a capitulum with a ring of broad ray florets and a center of disc florets; flower color is very variable between the different species. The genus includes several ornamental plants popular in gardens. Numerous hybrids and cultivars have been selected and named.

FLORIAN:
I have a feeling that someone is watching us.
DORIAN:
You're right

Smile on Saturday: Two-same
Same evening I shot several images of the sun setting over the Nevern Estuary in Pembrokeshire, I turned away from the direct sun to capture the glow on the strikingly blue boat.
Trying to do it in the same camera, a challenge that we think and doing all kinds of tests until it goes more or less like that, with more than 5 shots the color is distorted a lot and the profiling is not good anymore, but I think the challenge we have managed ..
Probando hacerlo en la misma camara, un reto que nos pensamos y haciendo todo tipo pruebas hasta que sale mas o menos asi, ya con mas de 5 tomas se falsea mucho el color y la perfilacion ya no es buena, pero creo que el reto lo hemos conseguido..
And again it's the same place, Podere Belvedere in San Quirico D'orcia, and again it's a different morning and again it looks completely different.
This time I'm a little later here and the sun is already a little higher. It's fascinating how the light changes the landscape.
I think you could spend an entire holiday just here and photograph just this one motif, every day at different times of the day and from different perspectives. A collection of photographs would be created, each of which has a different effect and which, as a whole, contain the beauty of Tuscany as a whole. And for me as a photographer it would not be boring. That reminds me a bit of my favorite tree at home in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. I feel the same about that one.
Of course I didn't do that, because I'm far too rarely here for that (this is my first time). So I'll save my last three versions (yes, there's always more) for later and bring you somewhere else tomorrow.
Und wieder ist es der selbe Ort, Podere Belvedere in San Quirico D'orcia, und wieder ist es ein anderer Morgen und schon sieht es hier wieder ganz anders aus.
Dieses Mal bin ich etwas später hier und die Sonne steht schon ein wenig höher. Es ist faszinierend, wie das Licht die Landschaft verändert.
Ich glaube man könnte einen ganzen Urlaub nur hier verbringen und nur dieses eine Motiv fotografieren, jeden Tag zu unterschiedlichen Tageszeiten und aus unterschiedlichen Perpektiven. Es würde eine Sammlung von Fotografien entstehen von denen jede einzelne eine andere Wirkung entfaltet und die in Ihrer Gänze die Schönheit der gesamten Toskana beinhalten. Und für mich als Fotograf würde es nicht langweilig werden. Das erinnert mich ein bisschen an meinen Lieblingsbaum zu Hause im Elbsandsteingebirge. Bei dem geht es mir genauso.
Natürlich habe ich das nicht gemacht, denn dafür bin ich viel zu selten hier (das ist mein erstes Mal). Darum hebe ich mir meine drei letzten Versionen (ja, es gibt immernoch mehr) für später auf und bringe Euch morgen an einen anderen Ort.
Here you can find the links to all the other photos from the same spot (at differnt days and different times)

I don't mind where you come from
As long as you come to me
But I don't like illusions
I can't see them clearly
I don't care
No, I wouldn't dare
To fix the twist in you
You've shown me
Eventually
What you'll do
I don't mind
I don't care
As long as you're here
Go ahead, tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you take me for everything
And do it all over again
It's all the same
Hours slide and days go by
'Til you decide to come
But in-between
It always seems
Too long for certain
But I have the skill
I have the will
To breathe you in while I can
However long you stay is all that I am
I don't mind
I don't care
As long as you're here
Go ahead, tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you take me for everything
And do it all over again
It's always the same
Wrong or right
Black or white
If I close my eyes
It's all the same
In my life
The compromise
I'll close my eyes
It's all the same
Go ahead, say it
You're leaving
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are now
If you take me for everything
Do it all over again
It's all the same
Stare at the same thing
同じものを見つめていたい

Two Great tits wait for food. This is their way to tell me that the feeder is empty.
HSoS!
How to tell if your cat is plotting to kill you or if your cat adores you or if your cat thinks you're really funny??? It's difficult as you get the same expression.

Listen: same boat - Lizzy McAlpine (Live)
if I had the chance to see the northern lights
I would book the next flight and I’d buy a jacket
if I had the chance to see snow fall for the first time
I would stop and rewind to re-find the magic
but if there was ever a chance to tell you
that I think about you every single day
I don’t know if I could take that chance
or take your hand and say
you are on my mind
when I miss the snow
you show up when I hear that song or I
finally start watching that TV show
I don’t know why every time that I think of home
I can picture you standing in the cold
but I
I’m scared
cause I don’t know
if you and I are in the same boat
if I had the chance if you asked out of the blue
how I really truly feel about you
I don’t have a clue how that would go
but if I had the chance would I really tell you?
would I bare my soul and maybe end up crying in the bathroom?
or would I ask you to kiss me slow?
cause you are on my mind
when I miss the snow
you show up when I hear that song or I
finally start watching that TV show
I don’t know why every time that I think of home
I can picture you standing in the cold
but I
I’m scared
cause I don’t know
if you and I are in the same boat
"You can miss places.
You can miss people.
Just know that what you're really
missing is the way things were.
And even if you could go there again...
see them again...
you can't go back.
They're not the same.
You're not the same.
The loss of them changed you."

My husband shot this patient—or scared-witless—Pacific tree frog using his Nikkor 200mm macro lens and his old Nikon D4.
Same position but different angle than mine—in first comment.
There's room in the world for many different styles and apertures, and Howard and I are at either end of the spectrum. He's an IT Doc and physics guy, and has little close-sighted vision. We make a perfect pair, united in admiration of this tiny frog. Howard took this at 13:58. I took mine at 11:40. Both in shade of back deck.
At the same place than the cormorant the Heron too got a catfish. Sorry for the IQ but I did it after sunset and so without any light, so their is some movement blur because to limit the ISO I used a slow shutter speed. Then in post processing I have had to brighten the héron and the water.
A la meme place que le cormoran, le héron a attrapé lui aussi un poisson chat. Désolé pour la qualité d'image, mais je l'ai prise après le coucher du soleil, donc sans lumière, donc il y a du flou de mouvement car pour limiter les ISO j'ai utilisé un temps de pose long. Ensuite en post procesing j'ai du ajouter de la lumière pour faire ressortir le héron et l'eau.

Taken the same day as the Cherry blossom was spotted as I sat feeling unwell gazing out of my living room window. One short walk from my own front door along a roadside verge yielded up so many opportunities It felt exiting and unbelievable. It really was nothing but a bit of scrubland along the road yet these tiny flowers made it through what was more of a dog toilet tbh...Taken using a Sony A7R2 with a CZ Pancolar vintage lens wide open. The plane of view was extremely sharp but out of the wind I managed sharp focus where I desired it to keep this tiny gift under wraps and keep these forget me nots looking as precious as it felt that day to me...I feel a little better and took two short walks this week.
Thank you for your patience as I continue to catch up with comments :)
...as last holidays. Every time since the little pier of Hvidbjerg Strand has been constructed I have to creep under the building to take a shot. It has become almost an obsession. Needless to say that this exercise is more convenient in Summer and times of low tide. Blavand, Jylland, Denmark
Nothing in a society stays the same and that includes the economy. Factories close, people lose their jobs, brands disappear......
One such disappeared icon in the automobile industry was the Belgian top brand "Minerva". which began producing automobiles in 1904.
This brand was named after the Roman goddess Minerva, the goddess of wisdom and arts, and her image adorned every radiator cap on the Minervas as a small work of art.
Many Minervas were soon exported to England with which heads of state and others famous people were transported.
The brand became increasingly popular with the wealthy part of the world's population, and many members of the royal houses of Romania, Thailand and India, among others, drove them.
Over time, the automobiles were also exported to America and Australia and were a huge succes in these countries.
Thus, even the American car manufacturer Henri Ford drove around in a Minerva because of its famous "Sleeve Valva System" of the Minerva's engines.
This engine system was executed without the conventional valve system.
This system made it possible to significantly reduce the excessive noise produced by the conventional engines of the time.
Minerva automobiles were a very formidable competitor to Rolls Royce, Isotta-Franchine, Hispano-Suiza and Duesenburg, the other greats of this period.
However, the great Belgian automobile brand Minerva did not survive the Great economic crisis of 1930 and went bankrupt in 1934.....
The automobile in the photo is the 1921 Minerva 00-Tourer with a Van der Plas bodywork and was very popular with the world's wealthy population and this model was driven privately by Henri Ford.
The engine was equipped with a 6 inline cylinders and had a capacity of 5.355 cc and an output pf 30 HP and of course it is equipped with the "Sleeve Valve System".
The "Sleeve Valve System" is a four-stroke engine that does not use inlet and exhaust valves and a camshaft, but sliding or rotating shutoff slide in the cylinder wall.
Therefor , the great advantage of this system is undoubtedly its noiseless operation.
However, there are also disadvantages to it and this concerns that it needs a complicated construction and has less direct cooling.
A still working example with a complete original engine is very, very rare and is one of the most sought after examples for colectors.
same bear as posted yesterday. He is young here and I'd imagine by now he is huge. This was taken in 2013 and if he's grown into his legs and paws, he is a boar to reckon with.
Here he is just across the river from me and I had a 500mm lens with a 1.4x on it. no crop or anything. Taken at 10:15 PM
Same rose, different look!
I added a light vignette which I thought suited it very well.
I have a very similar rose growing in my garden, which seems to given up flowering now so this one is from a bouquet ....
The same Ruddy male I posted three days ago. This time I got him doing his breeding display.
They expand their breast muscles and feathers to trap air and then rapidly beat their breasts with their bills to force the air out to create bubbles. I did not see a female to be impressed or not today.
