This is our beautiful old girl, Jazzy. She had an aggressive cancer and was given a prognosis of 12 months. That was 4 years ago. She just turned 10, officially an elder pup now, and is extremely healthy, and slightly spoiled.
She loves our daily walks, and the post-walk treat even more.
Trying something different with the selective colouring, in case you hadn't guessed :)
Windmill at a small South-Holland enclave name Pernis. This little village is completely surrounded by industry, predominantly refineries and port zones.
This was the last rose that I photographed in 2022. It was looking quite faded, so originally I was going to convert the whole image into B&W. Somehow that really bothered me so I only converted the outside of the bloom for Sliders Sunday. HSS!
Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving me a comment! Have a wonderful day!
We all know now about struggles. One small struggle I am having is on Flickr. My views are lower than they used to be. Even a few years ago the numbers were double what I have now. It bothers me because I do not understand the logic in it. I could be wrong, but I think because of the thank you system in place, fewer people actually cruise through their contacts. Does anyone notice this at all? I view all my contacts everyday. I may not comment on them all. But I do view them.
Happy Sliders Sunday

Happy Sliders Sunday :-)
The Infante Dom Pedro Park
"Caminhava por aí sem destino. A luz do Sol dava ao meu mundo cinzento uma tonalidade ainda mais branca de pálido que obnubilava a minha visão numa névoa encandeante e sem detalhe. Desorientada neste vórtice de luz, ao longe vislumbro o que pensei ser a porta do tempo, aquela porta que me poderia permitir, ao trespassá-la, colocar-me em cada instante desejado de uma felicidade que nunca tive. Caminho confusa por entre um estranho matagal de sóis sem cor e ao fim de todo o esforço deparo-me com a porta fechada… Afinal o tempo não passa de uma ilusão, de algo que apenas nos habituámos a contar e a desejar manipular ao nosso gosto.
Inicio o meu árduo percurso de regresso ao ponto de partida sem ter a certeza do caminho que os meus pés doridos pisavam. Meus olhos se encheram de lágrimas de uma profunda desilusão, escorrendo como uma fonte até ao chão. Olho então para trás e, no meio daquele vórtice arrepiante vislumbro teu rubro amor brilhando sobre o implacável tempo que minhas lágrimas dissolveram."

… Sometimes it takes a T34/85 medium tank to bring a touch of colour to this otherwise rather drab corner of Bermondsey :-)
adaptation to film noir, a style or genre of cinematographic film marked by a mood of pessimism, fatalism, and menace. The term was originally applied (by a group of French critics) to American thriller or detective films made in the period 1944–54 and to the work of directors such as Orson Welles, Fritz Lang, and Billy Wilder.

As announced, this is a view of the metro station Museumsinsel itself. When I first read that the station was inspired by Karl Friedrich Schinkel's famous set design for the scene of The Arrival of the Queen of the Night in Mozart's Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute; please see the link to Schinkel's design in the description for my previous upload which you can also find in the first comment), I thought "Wow, I can't wait to see it, it must be gorgeous!" And when I finally visited the station shortly after it had been opened, I was a little disappointed because it has none of the lightness and airiness that made Schinkel's set design so special and magical. To me, the station's overall impression is quite heavy, even somewhat oppressing, mainly because of the big, square columns and the fairly low ceilings. All of it probably because a part of the station lies under the river Spree, so there must have been special requirements regarding the station's structure and safety. But still... Somehow, the station even reminds me of modern-day brutalism of sorts, not of beautiful music and a starry night. But that's just my perception.
For Sliders Sunday, here's a selective colour version. I think this image lends itself to that type of editing because in the full-colour version, the dark grey granite from the Fichtelgebirge (Fichtel Mountains) in Bavaria had a yellowish hue due to the lights in the station. I didn't like that at all, so I desaturated all colours except the vibrant blue. This time, I also left the (one) person in the image, for scale. And yes, it was 2021, so the lady who waited at the station wore a face mask.
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, wishing you a sunny week ahead!
