Sometimes I see potential in a photo for these effects. Sometimes I just go willy nilly and see what happens. Sometimes I just put the photo in the trash and start over.
This is done using a layer mask and blur effect in Photoshop Elements.
Happy Slider Sunday

Covid situation getting worse..our whole state of Victoria is in lockdown now due to the spread of the delta variant to the regional areas. Too many infectious cases not in isolation in the community and too many mystery cases that cannot be linked to known clusters is making it very hard to control the spread.
Today is day 202 of lockdown for us in Melbourne since the start of the pandemic.
Still we are better off than the poor souls who are trying to flee Afghanistan !
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated.
Happy Saturday

Two trams again - this is a similar traffic situation as in the previous upload, just a different point of view.
The background tram is coming out of the Arnulfstraße, entering the Bahnhofsplatz square; while the foreground tram comes out of Prielmayerstraße from the Stachus square, entering the Dachauer Straße.

They have a highly audible song for such a small bird. It took several minutes before I could locate him as he sang a few phrases from one place, and then started again in another location. Luckily for me, he flew down to an open perch very close where he sang and raised his crown.
It was a bright overcast backlight situation. I was close enough to get detail though, and I really like the way those red crown feathers were lighted from behind.
If you have never heard its song, Check the link below.

Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares - Sevilla
El Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de la ciudad de Sevilla (Andalucía, España) está localizado en la plaza de América del parque de María Luisa. Al otro lado de la plaza se encuentra el Museo Arqueológico. Fue el pabellón de Arte Antiguo de la Exposición Iberoamericana de 1929.
Fue planteado como pabellón de Industrias, Manufacturas y Artes Decorativas. Finalmente, se le llamó pabellón de Arte Antiguo e Industrias Artísticas. Se trata de un edificio proyectado en 1913 y construido en 1914 por el arquitecto Aníbal González, autor también de los otros edificios levantados en la misma plaza de América. Es de ladrillo visto con motivos decorativos de cerámica. Por su estilo arquitectónico, fue conocido como el pabellón Mudéjar.
En principio constaba de dos plantas sobre una cámara de aireación para evitar la humedad. Se realiza una mejora durante la década de 1960 en la planta principal, que tenía más de doce metros de altura, y se dividió con una planta artificial (corresponde a la planta primera) por el arquitecto Antonio Delgado y Roig. En 1972 se unen las plantas con una gran escalera de caracol que diseña el arquitecto José Galnares Sagastizábal, trabajo que realiza después de que la construcción fuese designada para albergar el museo por el Decreto de Creación del Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de Sevilla, con fecha de 23 de marzo de 1972, constituido como una sección del Museo de Bellas Artes.
Sus funciones como museo se desarrollan desde el 4 de marzo de 1973, fecha en que abre sus puertas al público.

Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville
The Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville (Spanish: Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares) is a museum in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, located in the María Luisa Park, across the Plaza de América from the Provincial Archeological Museum.
The museum occupies the Mudéjar Pavilion (Pabellón Mudéjar) designed by Aníbal González and built in 1914. It served as an art pavilion, the Pabellón de Arte Antiguo, for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, when Aníbal González had the opportunity to design several additional permanent buildings for the plaza. The exterior is ceramic over brick, and has three doors with archivolts adorned with glazed tiles (azulejos).[citation needed]
The building originally consisted of two stories over an aeration chamber (necessary because of the humidity). In the 1960s, the main floor, originally over 12 metres (39 ft) high, was divided in two, with an intermediate level added by architect Delgado Roig. In 1972, as part of the preparations for the current museum, the various stories of the building were connected by a grand spiral staircase designed by José Galnares Sagastizábal.
The museum was established by a decree of 23 March 1972, initially as a section of the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville. It opened its doors to the public 4 March 1973.[2] For the next seven years, the museum fell under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education and Science, but the city government occupied more than half of the poorly maintained building. Neither institution took full responsibility. This situation led to a series of temporary closures. In 1976, the electric bill could not be paid, and the museum had to be shut until it could get power again. In 1979, heavy rains damaged the interior.

During the holidays, Peter and Oleg visited some castles in Luxembourg. Peter (Prince Peter) is still looking for a castle for his sweet princess Rosie. www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/ In the castle of Beaufort they also visited the torture chamber.
PETER:
Oleg?? That thing I'm sitting on won't turn around anymore
I can't go up and I can't go down.
What should I do now?
OLEG:
Sit still...give me your left paw and I'll pull you up
And so it happened
Peter and Oleg survived the torture chamber
Hi everyone... I want to give everyone an update... I still struggle with chronic pain on a daily basis. I have been without a source of income for several months so if you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you. www.flickr.com/people/jax_chile/

Dove on the Nest - Las Garzas - March 2017-2 LR
A woman walked down to the shore of the green space with her dog, off leash. The dog proceeded to run out after this egret, causing it to relocate. She tried calling it back, but it would have nothing to do with her. She needs to use that leash, as required by law!!! First comment is moments before, as the dog charges...
...I take a deep breath and walk away.

There’s a male Phainopepla living in my yard—shiny black, crest slicked back, and convinced he’s the main character. He zooms around the firethorn bush like he owns it (because he does), flashing feathers and singing the same song over and over. Field guides say they mimic other birds—mine doesn’t. He has standards.
Then came the female, elegant, gray, mysterious. They’re clearly nesting, though I’ve never looked. Why? Because I’m not a nest-peeping weirdo. Some things are better left private, especially when your yard is hosting the goth power couple of the desert.
Couplet
He gleams like obsidian, sings with control
And treats my backyard like it’s rock & roll.
(Obsidian – A sleek, glassy black rock made from fast-cooled lava, often used for tools, weapons, and metaphors involving stylish birds.)
(The first time I heard the word Phainopepla, I thought it sounded like a Scandinavian shampoo, or maybe a Mediterranean side dish that costs $14 and comes with exactly one olive. According to science, it’s pronounced fay-no-PEP-la, but let’s be honest: even the bird doesn’t know how to say it.)
These glasses are 75L, go get em!
