In wintertime, when it has been snowing, you find traces of human activity easily ;-)
"It's impossible to move, to live, to operate at any level without leaving traces, bits, seemingly meaningless fragments of personal information."
Quote - William Gibson
This seemingly abandoned or neglected old stately home was spotted on a country road in Durham, Connecticut and shot with the Olympus E-M1.
THE VERY OLD ONE SINGS:
there is not more in little
nor is there less
still is uncertain what was
what is to be will be will-less
first when it is it is serious
fruitless it recollects itself
and stays in great haste
everything of worth is defenceless
grows rich from touchability
and equal to everything
like the heart of time
like the heart of time
Lucebert

A sea otter seemingly seeks divine guidance to help in making it through another Monday! I hope you have a great week ahead!!

The treacherous hornby Rapids. This seemingly impossible sandstone wall was said to be inspiration for some of M C Escher's famous drawings (although the source of this rumour is unreliable).
A completely reworked version of this image, including some valuable feedback from Adam Williams.
I took a punt and entered it in the Better Photography Image of the Year competition, Creative Flair section. It was awarded a Silver and finished in the top 50. A very pleasing result.
A seemingly hassled Black-capped Chickadee searching for a safe nighttime roost after a rough day only to find curious me in the way.
Common to the area year round.
With nettles seemingly covered in Peacock larvae wherever you look this summer, we should be expecting a bumper year! This fresh beauty appeared on our garden corn cockle butterfly bed just before the month of June was out! (6308)
Great Spangled Fritillary butterfly sipping sweet Teasel nectar in the morning sun.
Considered abundant, but seemingly fewer on the scene this year.
A rainbow seemingly sitting on top of the dam wall at the end of Loch Glascarnoch on the Inverness-Ullapool road. The buildings in front of the dam are those of the Aultguish Inn - or, as my son commented, the Anguish Inn if the dam leaks!
With its seemingly never ending pollen supply, no wonder bees love goldenrod.
Thank you so much for viewing this image and for leaving me a comment! Have a great day!
Having spotted Tommy Turtle seemingly stranded upon a lily-pad after heavy rains in the 'Glades, Al E. Gator decided to assist a fellow creature by scooping Tommy into his mouth to carry him to dry land.
Unfortunately for Tommy Turtle, Al E. Gator was apparently allergic to the Lily; and all it took was one sneeze from Al to bring the ride (and Tommy's life) to a crashing halt.

These teeny, seemingly fragile, very beautiful little Rosemary flowers are on a little plant in a 4" pot in the greenhouse. Is at max 1:1 magnification and also taken in aps-c, so effectively 1.5x, but with a 1.0 d.o.f. and a bit of a crop thrown in.
They were pretty awkward to photograph - I took some photos first and then uploaded in order to get an idea of what they were like, which didn't really help that much as even with the 20x was difficult to tell what was what on these pretty complex flowers, then I took a lot of various little flowers and angles but only a couple worth keeping. A bit hit and miss to say the least :^)

This old church, seemingly abandoned, was the Palmer Methodist Church according to the sign on the building. Surprisingly, the bell was still in the tower.There is no other information regarding the historical building, as there are only 449 residents in Palmer, according to a recent census. None of the 449 were seen.
Palmer is near one of the last large mines in the Upper Peninsula, the soon-to-be-deactivated Empire Mine,
Because birds fly seemingly effortlessly, something that we cannot do at all, we tend to think of them as nimble and flawless. Yet, just like us, they can fail and make mistakes, sometimes quite painful.
Here is a failed landing of a tree swallow, observed at the Heinz NWR.
Fairly small, boldly patterned diving duck that lives a seemingly dangerous life near fast-moving water and jagged rocks. Male is striking and unmistakable. Female is dark brown with small white patches on face; compare with female scoters but note smaller size and smaller bill of Harlequin. In summer, almost invariably seen in pairs on rocky streams where they breed. Gathers in small flocks on rocky coastlines in winter. Feeds on insects, fish, and aquatic invertebrates. Frequently dives underwater. Vocalizations are cute, high-pitched squeaks. In North America, more numerous in the west than in the east; also occurs in eastern Asia and Iceland. (eBird)

My first sighting of a male Harlequin Duck in full breeding plumage! We often get one female or immature male in Ottawa for the winter, but never one this beautiful! There is also an immature male in this group. His plumage is similar, but not yet as colourful. No females were seen.

DELIGHTFUL and often confiding little bird with a aproportionately long tail, and seemingly spheical body, a lot of people call them feather dusters. Mainly associated with deciduous woodland, they form small flocks that are rather nomadic in their habits,

"GODs BEAUTY is SIMPLY AMAZING !"
Seemingly secluded from the rest of the world, this lowermost but typical side valley of the Simmental is welcoming place. The Diemtigtal valley is a 16km-long oasis of wilderness and pristine beauty.
This seemingly abandoned house sits in the middle of a field. I didn't see any driveway or path to the house. It's just surrounded by crops.
Grand Traverse County, Michigan
Barley, Lancashire
This seemingly semi abstract looking image was actually on the river bank at Barley. I could only assume that after the river had flooded, it had eroded part of a tree and left this wonderful design as the water level dropped
Mother nature at its best, hope you enjoy it!
Somehow, the seemingly endless chaos of Nature’s
hammock can intrigue and inspire. And bring Peace
to one’s spirit. As opposed to the chaos of politics,
the forces of change, violence in the streets and
attempts to rob freedom and peace from our spirit.
“When will it end, when will it end ?”ask the
Yardbirds.
Hopefully political chaos will bring peace and
Holy Light will shine through again.

When will it end (when will it end)

Yes, Phil, trees in Florida Do grow sideways !
Just growing in a large pot, next to the parking spaces for a shopping center, and seemingly doing very well.
Isn't God a great artist? Thanks for looking.
Sighs!! And there you have it... seemingly no such thing
Don't wait for Prince Charming, you will get bone weary!

This gull picked up a seemingly live small Dogfish from just above the water line at the famous iron structure called the diamond it then flew down to the sea and just dropped it into the water . I suspect that is one very lucky Dogfish and one very grumpy gull The huge Structure known as the Diamond finally toppled into the sea on the 3rd of November 2019 .
While male Red-winged blackbirds dominate the area, I have taken advantage of their seemingly aggressive presence. These two did not choose to kickbox. (first comment)
Soon they'll head north. At least that's been my experience. About as shot.
