*~ Memories ~*

A new day slips

Ever so quietly into my room ...

Tiny fingers of light

Touch my cheek

In a loving Caress.

 

Shadows of memories

Lost in the clutter,

The past marches by me,

Soldiers in time.

Each piece a picture in time

Of what was and maybe

What will be ...

Could be ...

Should be,

Stories waiting to be told.

 

Clutter and time,

Rhythm and rhyme,

I sit in the silence

and think

Of things that were

And things to come,

 

And in the stillness

I know

Silence is not golden;

It's just lonely.

CSX M209 sleuths into the street running in downtown La Grange with a YN2 leader as the last of the autumn sun slips away.

"Owing to its shy and retiring habits, it is seldom seen, but, if the observer lies concealed near some open place in the bog, he may catch a glimpse of it as it comes out to feed, stepping daintily over the bog, flirting its short tail up and down or spreading it out in display, and nodding its head back and forth with a graceful dovelike motion. Its toes are so long and its body is so light that it is easily supported on the lily pads or on a few floating reeds. It takes long steps when walking, but when running its tracks may be a foot apart. If alarmed by a sudden movement or sound, it runs to cover with lowered head and outstretched neck and with wings and plumage closely pressed against the narrowed body, as it slips out of sight in the narrow aisles between the reeds. Robert J. Sim (1911), who kept a sora rail in captivity until it became quite tame, says:

 

A rail which is quite at ease is very different in appearance from one that is frightened or at all nervous. Most birds of this kind to be seen in taxidermal collections look as if they had been "scared stiff"--a state of things which is, perhaps, consistent enough. But a live, comfortable rail going about his own business is as graceful a bird as you could find, and plump like a guinea hen or a Hubbard squash. The tail is carried in a horizontal position or droops slightly. On the other hand, when filled with apprehension the bird is very slim, the head is lowered and extended, and the tail is cocked up or is twitched up at every step."

CP 113 slips over the Cherrywood bridge with some beautifully clean examples of a horrible company name and paint scheme leading the charge. Welcome to the future.

Nature slowly slips into one season from another, gracefully as Ballet. We dance to the Rites of Spring, should we also dance to the bountiful harvest and the Rites of Autumn?

VIA’s #185 slips into the misty wilderness at Forks, our launching point and location where the east and west branches of the Spanish River converge. Spanish Lake, near Biscotasi, is the headwaters for the West Branch which is less accessible, serpentine, and features much more white water than its counterpart, though Biscotasing and Sinker Creek are still popular Spanish River launching points, albeit from the train. On the other hand, the East Branch offers road access at Duke Lake and a smoother ride, but traverses a number of open lakes and even moderate headwinds can make this route a real challenge, particularly in colder climates. From here we'd disembark our canoe, load up our gear, and paddle downstream into the rapids, rain, and fall colours with the goal of making the Flume campsite before nightfall. This area pictured here also doubles as Lebell Lake and features another campsite on the west tip of the island just to the right of the train. The West Branch can be seen continuing to parallel the tracks upper frame left, while the East Branch snakes off to the right of that towards the high ridge - MP 30 CPKC Nemegos Sub.

That hot, hot Texas sun slips on her best color as she inches her way to the Hill Country horizon, setting her intentions to rise yet again tomorrow...

ABYSS CROPTOP slips in sharp and unapologetic

Clean cut attitude with that underground pull you feel before you see it

Easy to throw on hard to forget and built for looks that don’t play nice

Quietly confident but still hitting loud exactly how we like it

The sunset slips behind the silhouette of a bare tree, as if the branches are holding the last light of the day. Through the lattice of twigs, the dome of a Belarusian church emerges softly, wrapped in warm golden flare.

The river below mirrors the fading glow, turning the scene into a quiet duet of light and shadow.

This frame feels like a short pause in time — when nature and architecture breathe in the same rhythm, waiting for evening to settle.

PS inspired with this photo I created some folk electronic music music.apple.com/ru/album/%D1%83-%D0%BB%D1%83%D0%BA%D0%BE%...

Закат прячется за силуэтом одинокого дерева, будто его ветви удерживают последние лучи уходящего дня. Сквозь кружево тонких веток мягко проступает купол белорусского костёла, окутанный тёплым золотым отблеском.

Река внизу отражает угасающий свет, превращая пейзаж в спокойный диалог теней и бликов.

Кадр словно застыл — момент, когда природа и архитектура дышат одним ритмом, встречая наступающий вечер.

At a marina very near the PA and NY border.

Remembrance

 

A memory slips through the cracks,

of a time we can not get back.

The vibrant colors fade.

A voice that can not still be heard,

though in our hearts still live their words,

to be at will replayed.

 

As a child's memory, subjective,

seen now from a changed perspective,

through the passage of time.

The edges by emotion frayed,

in our mind's eye fleetingly displayed,

remembrance sublime.

 

Existing in our memories,

thereby given immortality,

today begins always.

How then shall you be remembered ?

Will your memory fall tender,

upon hearts reached today?

Charwell Point slips into Lake Ontario from Prince Edward County’s southern shore, twenty kilometres from Prince Edward Point to the east, and five kilometres from Point Petre to the west. The promontory falls within the Point Petre Wildlife Conservation Area, and the county’s South Shore Important Bird and Biodiversity Area (IBA).

 

This is one of the last undeveloped stretches of shoreline on Lake Ontario, and host to a wide array of interesting and rare plant and animal species. In the spring of 2020 the location was identified as an important rest and refuelling stop for migrating shorebirds. These special birds are drawn to Charwell by its long, undisturbed beaches and expansive gravel flats, formations rare elsewhere in area. The point is also one of the first visible landfalls on the southern shore, presenting a welcoming sight to exhausted birds crossing Lake Ontario.

 

Here is a report I wrote about the shorebird migration at the point this spring:

Early November on Michigan's Leelanau Peninsula is often overcast and rainy. A lot of our trees have lost their leaves. Well, except for the oaks, which might hold onto their leaves all winter long. The temperature seems to be dropping along with the leaves. We usually see snow by the end of the month. Lauren Crane's, song, Silk and Wool, contains these words, "...as autumn slips away, the smell of winter on the breeze.' An apt description of early November on the Leelanau.

Japanese aristocrats engaged in the elegant custom of recollecting classical poetry while viewing spring and autumn foliage. In these delicate screens, premier court painter Tosa Mitsuoki meditated on the inevitable passage of beauty by depicting the melancholy hours after the departure of reveling courtiers. A cherry tree bursts into bloom on the right screen (seen here at top), while its mate displays the brilliant red and gold foliage of maples in autumn. Slips of poetry, called tanzaku, waft from the blossoming limbs, the lingering signs of a human presence. Courtiers (whose names are recorded in a seventeenth-century document) assisted Mitsuoki by inscribing the narrow strips with quotations of appropriate seasonal poetry from twelfth- and thirteenth-century anthologies. The screens were either commissioned by or given to Tofukumon’in (1607–1678), a daughter of the Tokugawa shogun who married the emperor Gomizunoo (1596–1680). In an era otherwise marked by increasing control of the feudal shogunate over imperial prerogatives, this royal couple encouraged a renaissance of courtly taste that nostalgically evoked the past glories of early medieval aristocratic life.

The moon quietly slips away as dawn breaks over Milwaukee on Easter Sunday morning.

 

The Mackinac Island State Harbor closes for the season on October 18, and reopens in May. In summer, the 76 slips fill quickly.

 

It rained for four days and nights on our recent trip, but the sun finally broke through, brightening the colors of the rain-washed Island.

 

The picture faces south to the Straits of Mackinac, which separates Michigan's Upper and Lower Penisulas. The Straits also connect Lake Huron to the east (left in the picture) with Lake Michigan to the west.

Measuring a summer's day, I only find it slips away, to grey.

 

A blustery, grizzly, dark and moody landscape provided the backdrop for this shot which was taken on a walk on Anglesey in North Wales. The lyric from the Led Zeppelin song seemed apt. I shot this using a deep red (091 B+W) filter on my Q2M to punch up the contrast.

When my early morning becomes someones end of the night and the clash of differences becomes apparent. Add to that a camera, sumlight and a big dude chasing shadows. Well...there you go.

Light now slips away....

Previously unpublished shot from September 2020.

 

On 21st February 2022 the UK Government announced the complete abandonment of public health measures to protect its citizens, especially the most vulnerable, during the continued coronavirus pandemic, the worst pandemic for over 100 years.

 

Removing free and freely available testing and rules requiring isolation of the infected is nothing less than a policy of discrimination against over 3 million clinically vulnerable and clinically extremely vulnerable citizens of the nation.

 

Those vulnerable to increased risk of death and debilitating severe long-term disease from Covid-19 will now face an existential crisis when leaving their home.

 

Shopping will be dangerous, medical appointments will be a deadly place of airborne pathogens and dentistry will be impossibly dangerous. Just a few examples.

 

The Omicron variant is, through data from many countries, proving to be more damaging to people through blood clots than previous variants. Heart attacks, pulmonary embolisms and strokes are rising in those far past their infectious period. There is clinical evidence of brain damage from Covid-19 and growing evidence of testicular damage. Covid-19 is a disease of endothelial tissue and blood clotting - it always has been. There will be huge long term consequences and any damage from one infection will make an individual more vulnerable to a Covid-19 reinfection.

 

The vulnerable and extremely vulnerable people in this are not an exclusive group or club. Every single human is just one illness, infection or injury away from becoming clinically vulnerable themselves. It can happen to you - at any time.

 

Reducing the vulnerable population to an 'acceptable loss' in a public health crisis is nothing short of eugenics. Every death adds to a tally of democide.

 

A civilised society protects it's most vulnerable.

A selfish society does nothing.

 

Under these measures we are all vulnerable to Covid-19.

 

Yes I am angry. I, however, follow the science. The peer reviewed science by the majority of highly esteemed medics and scientists around the world. I listen to anecdotal evidence of the millions of people suffering from post-Covid disease, some for over 2 years without improvement.

 

The removal of protective health measures (*they were NEVER restrictions) is nothing more than a populist move and not only goes against all scientific fact, it defies basic common sense.

 

Please stay safe my Flickr friends and thank you if you took the time to read my thoughts on this. Thank you.
