Azizi (previously known as Flora!) washing himself amidst holding his strawberry. What you see is him creating his own dribble in order to wash his face. He does this ritual every evening, usually after his tea.

……The same trees as the last post but taken a little further down the road with a longer lens. A prime candidate for mono this one I thought. Hope you are having a great week and be sure to stay Covid safe, Alan;-)……

Happy Macro Monday!
Picture done for the Grove Art Center's Photo Club this upcoming Saturday 31th of May 25.
This weeks Theme is - Self Care. Photo Club meets every Saturday at 11:30 a.m. slt. Feel free to join, everyone is welcome, with or without a picture.
Self care does not always have to be big, expensive or complicated. I have learned that less is often more.
Sometimes, it is as simple as stepping outside, breathing in the evening air, and watching the sunset. Just letting myself soak in the present moment.
There is something deeply calming about watching the sun set by the sea. As the sky softens into shades of gold and rose, and the waves gently meet the shore, the world seems to quiet down.
With the rhythmic sound of the ocean, the salty air, and the cool breeze brushing against my skin, it feels like nature is reminding me to breathe again.
My thoughts begin to slow. The weight on my chest and shoulders lifts just a little. And in that stillness, I feel my soul begin to soften.
There is something truly healing about moments like these, the way the sky shifts through colors, like it is learning to let go of the day with grace.
It does not ask anything of me. It just is. And in that silence, I find a kind of inner peace and a quiet contentment that is hard to put into words.
So if the day feels heavy or my mind is tired, I remind myself to be gentle. Sometimes all I need is to step outside and watch the sky. Let the sunset hold space for me. It is a small act of self care, but it does so much good for my mind, heart, and soul.
I deserve moments like that. 🌅💛So does everyone else too..

It’s important to know who you are. At least until you figure out that who you are has nothing to do with anything you think about that.

Most of the time, I literally hate to take photos of myself, or even to be on photos in general. But last week, I convinced myself I had to try at least once a studio self portrait.....and this is the result..... Me, myself and I.
Ephesians 4:18 “For their [moral] understanding is darkened and their reasoning is clouded; [they are] alienated and self-banished from the life of God [with no share in it; this is] because of the [willful] ignorance and spiritual blindness that is [deep-seated] within them, because of the hardness and insensitivity of their heart.”
Took it a while back when I was in Japan. I was really excited about taking photos in the snow but it never snowed :(. More photos to come!
Silver gelatin print that was used to create “a realm of forgotten deities” (previous post). I was going through a Cindy Sherman phase - transformation. Hmm. Maybe I still am? Maybe it changes from day-to-day? Maybe it doesn't matter? Fun fact: pink wig
Einstein Museum
Albert Einstein (1879–1955) lived in Bern when he turned our ideas of space and time upside down with his theory of relativity in 1905. The Einstein Museum, which is part of the Bern Historical Museum, presents the life of the physicist. The light installation in the entrance area is a highlight.

Hi Flickr universe! Have not had much time to post here lately since I have been preoccupied with my new website and blog that I wrote about earlier in the summer:
It is getting less time consuming after initial website creation and set up, so I hope to get more time to post more on Flickr too soon. I do love the blog part of it as it gives me a chance to post more images from some particular outing in one post vs one image here on Flickr.
I hope everyone's summer is going well and you are taking your cameras everywhere and taking new exciting images. I have been exploring photographing butterflies with different lenses to see the differences and similarities. Hoping to write about it soon and post some pictures. Turned out I had no images of butterflies taken with my Pentacon 50 lens!!! I had to run out and correct that asap. ;-)
For now, this self portrait from yesterday I took on my phone. :-)
Till next time,
Diana
