I took this yesterday morning while walking my dog. They were very friendly and curious, but I didn't trust them with my dog completely, so I didn't get much closer than this.
The Grafelijkheids Dunes near Den Helder form the northern part of the North-Holland dunes. These dunes were once a separate island, Huisduinen.
Due to dehydration from water exploitation and then a sudden rise in the groundwater level, vegetation in the Grafelijkheids Dunes has gone wild. Lots of rare plants such as orchids disappeared. Instead, thick growth of bushgrass and creeping willow grew. Scottish Highlanders, Dexter cattle and ponies were released. The area is surrounded by a fence to keep the livestock from wandering away.

After fostering Ms. Kitty for almost 2 months, today her adopters travelled into town to collect her. They are wonderful people who have adopted from me before, so, I know that her future is assured. They are thinking of calling her Dulce, which is a perfect name – as she is sweetness personified.
Combination of motion blur and selective colour. I am beginning to really like this look although it seems to be a bit of a long process for me. I am saying not so easy. I like the outcome though.
Happy Sliders Sunday

Barred Owl with its dinner. Found him again a little later, sitting fat and happy in another tree digesting what I imagine is a big meal for an Owl.

A rare White Squirrel (not albino,because it has black eyes)stopping to have a look at me to find out if I am friend or foe before squiring up the tree out of my sight.

This is the first time I've photographed the Milky Way from this location looking south. Usually I am at the lighthouse facing west. I'd like to shoot this in the spring when you can see the arch across the sky but not sure I have enough energy to be there early in the morning around 3 or 4 am lol.

I decided to update my alt from the static mesh head I had so I could use her for more photos, and I am very pleased with the outcome. ^_^
The Adventure
The weekend had been magical. Honni had never felt more relaxed or in love with their boyfriend. Spending so much time with family, in the water, and surrounded by the sweet Mediterranean air really recharged and re-energized our adventurer. But like all good moments, this one had to end too. After packing their bags, and saying their goodbyes, Honni and Melethril walked up to the front desk in the lobby and checked out.
So long Portoluna! We’ll miss you!
Where was Honni?

A small crowd of locals has gathered outside of Page, AZ, where what was announced to be the last inbound coal train to the Navajo Generating Station. There ended up being another run after this one, leaving later in the day and slipping by most buffs. I only saw one other railfan near Kayenta on the chase of the last train.

A rare occasion when a Short-eared owl not only flies close to you, but perches by your car. I was just about to pack up the car when I noticed this guy sitting on a pole right next to the parking lot.

Always good to catch up with Arthur. Mind you, I think he might have been more interested in the Tiger Snake, that I wasn't aware of at the time, as a possible dinner.
Happy Wing Wednesday!

One of the more poignant photos during WWII. Taken in Penn Station in New York, year unknown. Makes you wonder what happened to them. The year and the photographer are unknown.
He was leaving and gods only knew how long he'd be gone. She'd not told him how she really felt and he'd kissed her forehead as he went off to fight the army of the undead. Hoping it wasn't the last goodbye.

Why is it sad?
Makes us remember the good times we've had
Much more to say
Foolish to try
It's time for saying goodbye

And what might they be saying to their Autumn friends? Hmmm...food for thought, especially for the birds.

Oleg received an invitation for 2 bears to afternoon tea at the Palim Court at the Ritz from the Christmas bear and Father Christmas. Oleg has asked his very best friend Paddy www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/53417843047/in/gallery... to join him
After a very successful afternoon tea of much conversation over tea and various kinds of sweets, it was time to return home again
Saying goodbye is always hard.......
OLEG:
Thank you so much for your company my dear friend Paddy.
I enjoyed the meaningful conversations and will miss them.
PADDY: (wipes a tear)
I'm going to miss those conversations too Oleg.
Thank you so much for letting me come with you.
OLEG:
And...what a rest without Peter.
Fine for a while, but I long to see him again
PADDY:
I feel the same way Oleg.
OLEG:
Then we should say goodbye now
PADDY:
I have to go now because the train leaves in four minutes
Bye Oleg!!!
OLEG: (waving)
Bye Paddy!
Special greetings to Daddy!

Thank you dear Jesse for sending me Paddy's photo :-)
🇬🇧 A group sitting in front of a closed row of shops.
No one talks, yet everything is being said — through postures, silences, shadows, and the absence of movement.
Down the sidewalk, a woman walks alone, away or back, no one knows.
Another day that leaves no trace, yet contains everything.

Personne ne parle, mais tout se dit — dans les postures, les silences, les ombres, et l’absence de mouvement.

It was my daughter's last day in Thailand yesterday. She's had seven years of adventures here but now she's all grown up and ready for the next chapter of her life. We're so proud of everything she's achieved during her school days and know that she will be amazing in university when the time comes.
Being in Thailand has taught her so many things - resilience, adaptability, compassion, a sense of adventure and being constantly inquisitive. She's excelled in all her studies, winning lots of academic awards along the way including the Valedictorian prize for top academic of her year group. She's won Top in Thailand awards five times, completed her Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award and served as head student. Yet, she remains humble and approachable winning many friends along the way. To say we're proud of her would be a massive understatement!
As for us parents we have big news ahead. More about that next week
As the Sun sets on the day, I look forward to what's next .
I wanted to start the New Year off with an image from my past. An image that says goodby and opening the door to what's next in the year to come.
This is Horseshoe Lake in Arizona. When I visit this area, I always make a point to get down to this tiny lake in the mountains West of Phoenix. Many times, the water is so low you can almost walk across the lake.
This is a Sunset afterglow looking East, my favorite quality of light.

Happy New Year & thanks for stopping by
