As in the past tense of lay, not telling us porkies!

A Flickr friend recently made me realise I have a gaping hole in my Australian animal posts. I have emu, kangaroo, tassie devil but was missing the obvious. So here is a little chap doing what Koala's do best - sleeping in impossible positions in trees. Still I'd prefer a koala bear to that other Aussie deadly creature know to terrify overseas visitors - the drop bear!

 

Cheers all :)

I’m jumping forward in my South American images to mix things up a little. This one is from Glacier Grey in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, just west of the Cordillera del Paine where we had spent the past week and a bit trekking through and exploring.

 

It’s hard to comprehend how big this glacier is (the kayaker in the bottom right will help to give it some scale) not just in the sheer magnitude of the ice face but also in the land coverage – at last account this ice field reportedly covered some 270 square km of land.

 

What is even harder to comprehend is just how much bigger it was. It’s retreat in recent years is nothing short of terrifying and heart breaking – there’s every possibility that our children may never see these incredible scenes.

 

The world today is changing and quickly becoming a world we once knew.

At the very end of the dunes stands the old watchman who do feels the tension and the unrest while he looks the surrounding at ease.

At his feet the tide is rising and the sea lips and murmurs slowly through the sand.

In the distance he hears the growling waves appoaching..........

Inland the wind picked up and it was as if the heaven leaden sky would compress everything in its way.

The reed bent so far as if it were trying to break free from the earth to flee.

The last rays of the sun would soon give way to a macabre darkness........

Meanwhile dark clouds chase the sky and every now and then the moon gets a change to break trough.

The high tide line then becomes visible for a short moment and in the distance wild crests are silhouetted against the darkness.

I must get away from this creepy place because if I wait any longer, I will be surrounded by the raging surf.

The spectacle of the sea being whipped by its ally the wind takes on a monstrous appereance.

Right now...

Somewhere, someone is in the middle of the chaos and terrified and crying.

Somewhere, someone rather goes to sleep so as not to feel the hunger.

Have you ever felt that way? I have in the past.

I have cried because hunger hurts....

I'll Never Not Love You

Every time my hand reaches for yours

I feel the hesitation

I'm sure that you're not sure

Every time your lips are kissing mine

I taste the indecision

It's messing with my mind

 

I know there's a part of you

That's terrified to love again

But I promise to the end

 

I'll never run

Leave you behind

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never make you cry

I'll treat you right

I'll stand by you

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

 

All of me, it's diving in the deep

You're standing at the shoreline

The waves are at your feet

Trust will never happen overnight

But if you give me more time

I swear you'll see the light

 

I know there's a part of you

That's terrified to love again

But I promise to the end

 

I'll never run (never run)

Leave you behind (you behind)

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never make you cry

I'll treat you right (treat you right)

I'll stand by you (stand by you)

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

Ooh, ooh

I'll never not, I'll never not...

 

I know there's a part of you

That is terrified to love again

But I promise 'til the end

Yeah, I promise 'til the end

 

I'll never run (never run)

Leave you behind (you behind)

I'll never hurt you like he hurt you

I'll never say goodbye

I'll treat you right (treat you right)

I'll stand by you (stand by you)

And no matter whatever happens

I'll never not love you

Ooh, ooh

I'll never not, I'll never not love you

 

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men

who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind

their own business and provide for themselves and those they love.

They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and

permanent change of life that will come from it.

 

They know, that the moment they fight back their lives

as they have lived them, are over.

 

The moment the Men who wanted to be left alone are forced to

fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing

off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up

violence, these Men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy

vengeance against those who murdered their former lives.

They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed

by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror.

 

TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people's door, and they will

cry, scream, and beg for mercy...but it will fall upon the deaf

ears of the Men who just wanted to be left alone. "

Frogs are not unlike humans in that individuals have very different personalities. Some are terrified of people, screeching and diving under water at the first hint of proximity. With others, one can gradually forge a relationship of trust.

 

Wild frogs of the right temperament can be slowly approached by gently talking to them with a musical voice. They may not understand words but can sense intent within tonalities and over time become familiar with certain notes.

 

I built such a bond of trust with the tree frog in this photo during the summer of 2023. With dew lap throbbing in response to my greetings, it remained comfortable as I got very close with my camera.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️

Early in the morning the sea and the wind reach their peak and it is like a wild orgasm of whipped high waves and drifting sand.

It's almost impossible to keep straight while you're sandblasted.

Stormclouds chase trough the sky and the storm rages on and on........

Job 3:5 “Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own; Let a cloud dwell upon it; Let all that maketh black the day terrify it.”

Tormenta desde Alcala de Moncayo. Podeis ver una terrorifica figura en la nube de la izquierda ?? Parece una figura de alguien muy enfadado.

A Shikra (Accipiter badius) was intensely watching underneath movements of probable victim for the taking with merciless eyes. Its cold look was enough to stop the heart bit of any prey! I was greatly impressed by the tough personality of the raptor and luckily got the perfect angle with good light to frame it. Pics was taken from Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India.

I found this guy in our garden yesterday. He was a terrifying creature, maybe 2 1/2 feet long. . Actually, he's a very cute Carolina Anole and he's very tiny. It's been cold here and I believe he was trying to absorb some heat from the metal legs of a Heron statue we have in the garden - (this shot is rotated). I went out to see him later, and he was motionless with his eyes closed and didn't respond to my touch - I thought he had died. Fortunately he later appeared to be opening his eyes, and he eventually moved on. I believe they seek refuge from the cold in the earth or in crevices in the brick that absorbs heat. We love having them around!

"As the terrified family rushed down the driveway squealing the wheels of the car on the old mossy bricks, the young girl turned and looked back at the old mansion her mother had inherited from a distant cousin, in horror she could not scream her terror as she saw the dark ghostly figure of the dead woman, the former lady of the manor, their eyes locking as the ghost raised her arm holding a lantern of ancient creation, a growing bright red light coming forth from the flame within, the young girl could barely let out from her lips "Faster Mom!, FASTER!". the car speeding down the long driveway toward the entrance as the heavy iron gates began to slowly close before them!"

 

Happy Sunday everyone, a quick little picture to begin the Autumn season, though I suppose I will have to do a beer photo for my German friends next month LOL! Have a wonderful day and thank you for allowing me to share my photo with you. :)

 

XOXO,

In your arms,

I'm in my safe haven.

With you holding me tight,

I have no other craving.

All I need,

 

Is that one look,

That says you're always there,

Just like in a fairy-tale book.

Your eyes talk to me,

as the world stands still.

 

My once empty heart,

now with love does fill.

Your eyes tell me,

that you'll love me every day.

No matter what may come,

You'll be there to stay.

 

If only I could explain,

how much love I have for you.

Just know that I'd cross oceans of time

To tell you that always and forever

That I'll be yours if you'll be mine.

OK maybe tiny dragon buttons are probably not so terrifying .

This is Lake Mässersee (2130 m/7000 ft) in the Swiss Alps. I had been here before about 32 years ago, together with my parents. My dad had his old Kodak camera with him and I took my very first photo here, showing my parents in front of the lake. Hence the title.

Unfortunately the weather today was far worse than back then. We climbed higher up today, up to Passo della Rossa that marks the border to Italy. The trail is called „Geisspfad“ in German, meaning „goat trail“ but actually refers to the chamois whose tracks we saw on the path. Apart from chamois the trail used to be taken primarily by smugglers. I guess not after middle of October though, as we had snow, sleet, hail and terrifying fog up there on 2474 m/8117 ft and we didn’t see any people all day. It’s not an easy trail especially with wind and snow on the rocks and pebbles and I was quite happy when we were out of the winter zone again :-)

Very friendly, but our doggy was terrified by the size of it :-)

Thank you all for visits, faves and comments!

"Then she was terrified, and wanted to fling off the red shoes, but they clung fast; and she pulled down her stockings, but the shoes seemed to have grown to her feet. And she danced, and must dance, over fields and meadows, in rain and sunshine, by night and day; but at night it was the most fearful.

 

She danced over the churchyard, but the dead did not dance--they had something better to do than to dance. She wished to seat herself on a poor man's grave, where the bitter tansy grew; but for her there was neither peace nor rest; and when she danced towards the open church door, she saw an angel standing there. He wore long, white garments; he had wings which reached from his shoulders to the earth; his countenance was severe and grave; and in his hand he held a sword, broad and glittering.

 

"Dance shalt thou!" said he. "Dance in thy red shoes till thou art pale and cold! Till thy skin shrivels up and thou art a skeleton! Dance shalt thou from door to door, and where proud, vain children dwell, thou shalt knock, that they may hear thee and tremble! Dance shalt thou--!"

 

"Mercy!" cried Karen. But she did not hear the angel's reply, for the shoes carried her through the gate into the fields, across roads and bridges, and she must keep ever dancing."

When I zoomed in on this cowboy’s expression riding a bronco at the Ft Myers Rodeo I couldn’t believe it. Looks like a cover from the Saturday Evening Post.

A horrific collision of extended drought, low humidity, high winds, and an unknown ignition source led to this maelstrom of fire and smoke on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Named the Calwood fire for the geographic location nearest its ignition point, this conflagration burned rapidly through over 7500 acres (3000 ha, 12 square miles) in around 3 hours, ending its terrible trip for the day with the destruction of 26 homes near the base of the mountains. Thankfully no one was injured or killed, though when I took this picture I was convinced it had gone through one of the mountain towns (Jamestown) without much warning, and feared far more damage had been done. Fortunately the fire had gone north of Jamestown through mostly uninhabited areas. The march across the landscape featured pillars of fire as stands of pines exploded, multiple fire vortexes and spiraling smoke clouds, generation of pyrocumulus clouds, and a fascinating diversity of smoke cloud shapes and colors. For scale the core of the fire is 7 miles (11 km) away from where this photo was taken.

 

Yes indeed, it is likely one could attribute this fire to climate change associated with the long drought we’ve had, yet fire is a major part of this landscape, and droughts occur in La Niña years such as the one we are experiencing. Fires can occur in the fall, but they require an idiot to start them as lightning is usually absent at this time of year. A much larger fire to the north (Cameron Peak fire) has been burning since August, and has now consumed 206,000 acres (83,000 ha, 322 sq miles). A smaller fire (Lefthand Canyon fire) that started the day after the Calwood fire has consumed 460 acres and threatens the Mountain Research Station where I have worked for the past 31 years. All of these fires are negatively impacting the health of people downwind who breath the smoke and fine particulates from the fires. Of course parts of California are experiencing even greater impacts from larger, more frightening fires that have been going on much of the late summer and early fall as well.

 

With those pretty baby blue eyes like yours it's ok to smile! 😄

Poor little Lady bird stayed completely still as the Hornets munched on the pear , it was fascinating watching them interact with each other x

A Moniter Lizard, taken at Taronga Park Zoo. They are truly beautiful animals, but it would be terrifying to meet one in the wild.

 

ziemlich erschreckend aus in den Hochlagen des Nationalparks Bayerischer Wald. Aber zwischen den kahlen Bäumen (Borkenkäfer) wächst neues Grün heran.

 

It's still looking terrifying in some parts of "Bayerischer Wald" national park, but you can see it's getting green again slowly between of all these dead trees (bark beetle)
