These are also spoons, however the other sides, so they could very well be forks or knives ;-)

Have a great day everyone!

These don't bite, though...

Except you count frostbite...😁

Another of these giant dishes, with the Orion constellation right in front of it. View direction is about W, which avoids the light pollution from the city of Weilheim to the south.

These cirrocumulus clouds have a golden glow from the setting sun off the south Chilean coast.

These seem to be going down well so I thought I would post another from this series.

I have long ago accepted that I am a little crazy and a little weird. It wasn't that exciting a revelation though. Turns out everyone is.

Another one from my crocus shoot last week.

These old trucks from the International to the Ford Rugby are ready to be sold to a happy home to be restored or become lawn ornaments.

 

These are not the most liked birds in the world but they do have an amazing amount of colour in them in a certain light.

Got their freedom Sept. 15,

I will wit for their return with more nectar bearing flowers,

These teeny, seemingly fragile, very beautiful little Rosemary flowers are on a little plant in a 4" pot in the greenhouse. Is at max 1:1 magnification and also taken in aps-c, so effectively 1.5x, but with a 1.0 d.o.f. and a bit of a crop thrown in.

 

They were pretty awkward to photograph - I took some photos first and then uploaded in order to get an idea of what they were like, which didn't really help that much as even with the 20x was difficult to tell what was what on these pretty complex flowers, then I took a lot of various little flowers and angles but only a couple worth keeping. A bit hit and miss to say the least :^)

We found our place

On the branch of an old gum tree

Our feet would sway

To a voice in the breeze

 

And birds would sing

On the banks of a narrow stream

 

These memories will stay with me

 

We made our way

To a hill beside the sea

 

With salt in the air

And sand on our feet

 

We felt the sun

As it burned upon our skin

 

These memories will stay with me

 

Now I am far away

These memories still remain

 

Now I'm far away

You stay with me the same

 

Now I'm far away

These memories still remain

these Pine trees "Nordmann-Tannen" are used only for Christmas trees by the Municipality and it's Citizen.

These 7 Monarchs are from Saturday waiting to dry,

Happy Sunday!

I used up all the plain flour making these clouds. this is taken in my favourite golden fields which are so nice and orange at this time of year. I love seeing how nature changes throughout the seasons

these two were on a coconut tree behind my house. I shot them from 15 feet away

These beautiful log homes, built for BC Parks for the 2010 Winter Olympics, are works of art complete with hand-carvings. The private oceanfront decks offer magnificent views of Howe Sound and the snow-capped mountains beyond.

 

Porteau Cove Provincial Marine Park

These seven elusive islands lie north of the popular Pink Granite Coast, but few humans set foot on them. Monks tried to establish a foothold, but gave up. The main occupants are the seabirds that congregate here to nest in vast numbers.

These chicks were born last monday

They were 3 days old when I did this new photo

 

Now they dare to swim around the nest

And they know what is food

You wan see how they watch parent coming back with food

 

As the ilse is closed now (covid), I did the photo from the other side, so distance is lower (7m-10m) but sun is in front.

 

At this point water depth is 1m-1.5m coot did a nice work to build this nest.

These are some of the biggest clouds I've seen at golden hour in Monument Valley in my last 4 trips. If you have a great shot of MV with nice clouds consider yourself lucky. :) This was taken during a 4 day blitz of the southwest with Flickr friend and photographer William McIntosh.

These great egrets are playing leapfrog as they hunt for real frogs!

And did you feel it,

in your heart,

how it pertained to everything?

These were the last tasks in our painting course before the summer holidays. Our painting teacher brought us a couple of photos of birds that we were supposed to use as templates, but then freely and newly interpret them in an imaginative and colorful way on an abstract background. Acrylic on canvas, each 30x40 cm

A beautiful visitor of my garden after enjoying a lunch took this pose for a photo

Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated!

 

Stay well my Flickr friends <3

These are the months we see these beautiful trees blooming in many states of the country. In the park in front of my house they use to bloom between March and April.

Ceiba speciosa / Paineira Rosa, already known by other uploads I did, here presented in two tones of pink.

 

Wish all of my Flickr friends a wonderful weekend, a blessed, happy and serene Easter!

These little Bewick's wrens are quite chatty as they explore their surroundings. This one told me to look for it in a bush, then soon emerged to this blackberry vine, and struck a classic wren pose.

These are the sunsets I don't get to see in the summer when the trees are in full bloom.

These two starling’s sat in one of my wife’s birdfeeders until the snow started to lighten up, afterwards they were able to grab some food and went on their way.

These abstract lines always caught my attention, so I couldn’t resist taking this shot when walking past it with my camera

It's coming round again

The slowly creeping hand

Of time and its command

Soon enough it comes

and settles in its place

Its shadow in my face

Puts pressure in my day

 

This life well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

 

It's coming round again

The slowly creeping hand

Of time and its demands

It settles in its place

Its shadow in my face

Undignified and lame

 

This life well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

Control well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

 

Soon enough it comes

Soon enough it comes

To tie us down

I'm off early morning volunteering to manage habitat for High Brown Fritillaries , think we're having a fire today and baked potatoes so should be fun. Another sunset shot from the other evening. these Days are Mine is by I Am Kloot.

 

These two wild stallions were exchanging postures in a stand off over who had the right to have his herd in the area. Sometimes it seems this is exactly the posture you see between humans.
