THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIEWS, COMMENTS, FAVES AND INVITES!

ALL ARE APPRECIATED!

Soft, even, overcast light and a Dunlin standing pretty along the shore. The chaos of the 100s of other shorebirds surrounding this one fades away when this beauty isolated itself to my right. It eyed me up for a moment, deciding whether it was safe to continue feeding in my direction. It was and she did.

A camera is a photographers sanity. Who messed with mine? LOL..

Sometimes you have to just play with life and see what she throws you.

Simple...

Torrance Beach, CA

05-30-23

Right before sundown. In another couple of minutes the disc started to slip into the cloud bank, so by the time it reached the horizon line it was already gone, but at this moment, the sun was bright and round.

I did get a shot of the pelican as he crossed in front of the disc by the way, however he was too far away and there was too much glare. Now you know I could do some digital magic, even position other birds in the shot from other photos, but I chose not to.

I like the simplicity of this. The sea was quite active closer to the shore, but this is a full 400mm telephoto shot, and the water was calmer farther out.

The mountains rising in the distance are Malibu.

"Ain't no need to complicate it, we both know thats overrated

We've been there, its safe to say it ain't our style, yeah

It's like one, two, three

Just as easy as can be

Just the way you look at me

You make me smile

Ain't no need to complicate it, we both know that's overrated

We've been there, its safe to say it ain't our style

We're just simple like a six string

The way this world was meant to be

Like laughin' love, make a lot out of a little..."

Happy Friday!

watching this lone wood duck slowly paddling along with the early morning sun lighting the way.

also the old birch by the frozen lake, seems to enjoy this bright winter day.../ Enkelt...även björken vid Herten verkar njuta av denna fina vinterdagen.../ Simple...hasta el añoso abedul junto al lago helado, parece disfrutar del brillante día invernal...(DSC_3824-3)

The world at the current moment just isn't simple. Everything is always so complicated. You can never go a day without seeing

the issues of the world. Simplicity to me is the number one thing that can make or break a relationship. If everything is so simple then it just works. Why complicate things when they never have to be?

But when I am with you a lot of those complications go away or just disappear for a few hours. I know when I am here with you I can just relax and not be stressed out. Naturally a competitive person I'm always competing with everything and everyone in some way. With you I don't have to. You are just simply simple.

Be Simple

"Doing shots"

I was lucky enough to be able to sneak away another day to meet up with Coleen at her happy place....one more day with that gorgeous doll Jenni...just one more day.

So grateful to have had that window of time, even though it wasn't nearly enough.

Missing the girls so much xo

This afternoon I went to Yushima Tenjin, very well visited at this time of the year for its ume trees but only a few were blossoming.... this is just one of them...

Have a wonderful day, my friends !!
