[Papaver orientale “Royal Wedding”]
This poppy in my garden has received the most love, care and attention I could possibly lavish on it, over the past few weeks. I transferred it from a pot in the yard to a new rock container that I made, in the new part of the garden. Initially, it was quite happy and produced a beautiful, large, white flower with a deep purple centre....Then it drooped!!
I decided to get a forked twig to hold up the very delicate head and this seemed to work for a couple of days. Today - the petals are falling off. Such a traumatic time. Who knew?
There are another four flower heads almost ready to bloom, though. Deep breath...

I'm in love with this magnificent young lion. He has a tragic background which could have had a horrendous ending for him and his family, as this boy has only ever known war and endless bombing in Donesk, Ukraine.
Teddi is a male lion rescued in 2024, arriving at Yorkshire Wildlife Park (YWP) after a 2,000-mile journey.
He and his family, when found were suffering from malnutrition and trauma due to the conflict.
He's clearly doing really well at YWP.
Strong winds and rain predicted for today and this evening, so Marnie and I had a good walk this morning. Here's my goodbye to 2024.
To be honest, I'm hoping the weather will be bad enough this evening to put off lots of the fireworks, as they really do cause Marnie a lot of trauma, and therefore, me too !
Whatever the weather, have a good night and an even better 2025 my Flickr friends !
Thanks for all your support in 2024 -- so appreciated !

Ended up making and modding like hell to make this but happy with the outcome. End result was suppose to be a sci-fi scientist of sorts but turned into a trauma thot. Still adore it.
Hopefully in the future I'll take more of her...Or a future RP char *shrugs* ❤

Ayer hice un acto de fe, y tras haber habido un enganchón por la mañana en Ataquines por la tarde dieron una vía expedita y me animé a acudir a la imperial para ver si iban dando paso a varios trenes.
Después del paso por Mingorría de uno de los Irún - Abroñigal desviados por las obras de la L.200, salí pitando para Navalgrande porque quería explorar el encuadre que podéis ver en la foto para esta hora de la tarde en los días de verano. Cuando llegué, efectivamente había foto y muy bonita, pero lamentablemente dudo que vaya a volver jamás, ya que en 15 minutos de espera hasta 5 garrapatas llegué a despojarme de encima. Una situación bastante asquerosa que no recomiendo a nadie, así que seguramente me quedaré con las ganas de pillar aquí un tren más vistoso que este chatarrero Vallecas Industrial - Vilar Formoso remolcado por la 335.005 de Transfesa.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
A previously unpublished shot from June 2018 with an anonymised subject that is perfect to answer the oft asked question: Why am I not currently doing street photography?
I have CPTSD (Complex Post-Traumatic Disorder) and have suffered with it for 20 years.
I managed to live through the technicolour nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive memories and triggered hypervigilance with a number of coping strategies but the Covid pandemic interuppted those and my symptoms worsened greatly. Over the past 3 years my CPTSD became unmanageable and I became really very ill.
I have recently finished a year of intensive trauma therapy which has been a great help but the road to recovery is a long process. Most days I am still unable to even leave the house and face people, and this explains why I haven't even touched my camera for the past 5 months.
I am making progress and am proud of what I have acheived to overcome these difficulties but the road ahead will be rocky, and may take some time and intense effort. I do fully intend to return to my beloved 'people photography' as soon as I am able to do so.
This is why your continued support while I have been uploading older unpublished shots and re-edits has been invaluable. I am grateful beyond measure for your kind words, favourites and support and it has, at times, kept me going and determined to pick up my camera once again.
I recently read someone else's words on CPTSD that sum up the difficulties quite well. I'll leave this here to give you an idea of what I am up against and am determined to beat. Thank you all so very, very much.
PTSD is a living hell but I am determined to not let those that did this to me, win.
Take care everyone.

PTSD isn't just flashbacks and memories.
It's not feeling safe when there is no logical reason for it.
It's intrusive thoughts that change your whole mood in a heartbeat.
It's hypervigilance, seeing threats everywhere.
It's not being able to trust your own instincts because you don't know what is a real threat or what is just in your mind.
It's poor sleep because if you close your eyes you know you will see it all again.
It's not being able to function day to day because you are broken and exhausted.
It's feeling like a failure, feeling like you deserve it and feeling like you will be like this forever.
It's feeling like you can't trust anyone so you would rather be alone.
It's constantly dealing with physical symptoms like headaches, nausea and palpitations.
It's like living in a prison made from your own mind beacuse of what someone else did to you.
It's living with the consequences of someone else's actions and the anger that can bring too.
It's getting triggered into a traumatised state by sometimes seemingly random things.
It's being unable to cope with even the slightest thing that goes wrong.
It's blaming yourself and hating yourself for 'failing' to stand up against those who caused the trauma.
In honor of the brave Men,Women and Children who endured hell on earth during Australia's worst bush fires in history.
Acknowledging the trauma experienced from Men, Women, Children, our wildlife and farm stock, all creatures great and small.
Small steps on the road to recovery. The ramifications for communities, cities will be huge.
May we continue to stand united as one as we rebuild, heal and dig deep for the strength when the going get's too tough.
We witnessed humanity at it's very best, courage beyond belief, stories of terror and miraculous escapes from hell on earth.
To the many men and women who sacrificed their lives including Canadian Firefighters - we Salute you and will never forget you. R.I.P.
Bravery
My fuck it flower has BLOOMED!

I was the victim yesterday- something you don't ever expect.- of a vicious dog attack. I managed to jump and run fast enough and put some small trees between me and the dog, but I can tell you all, I am not the "jumping and running" type lately with my still-recovering knee from surgery. Hey, my age alone says i am not into that . . . I am still shaky. The dog belongs to the neighbor's "almost"-ex husband's, and she can't control it at all. He is a big white Sheppard, about 100+ lbs. I had taken the garbage up the hill for pickup and the neighbor lady, drove up from work. We were chatting through her car window when the dog came around and began to lunge and attack. I tried to hold my ground but when he got to withint about 4 inches and I could feel the breath from his snarls, I figured that was enough.
I believe that the dog would have killed me or badly mangled me and would he not let me turn my back on him to get back to the house. This is not the first time he has behaved so, and and she knows he has been a problem for people before . . . Even right off our back deck . . . The neighbor was as terrified as I was- well, maybe not. When I finally decided I had to try and run, I was making a conscious sacrifice to know that I didn’t want him to rip off my arm or my bad right knee.
Ken came home early to be sure I was okay and he talked to the lady. They will keep the dog up until something can be done with him. It is still a wonder he hasn't bitten someone before. I couldn't help but imagine the small children next door who come down with their parents to play on the river . . .
This SO sux, and I hate being scared like that- felt like I might have a heart attack . . .

Je voulais faire un gros flou de bougé et en fait j'ai rippé de mode, et je suis resté en priorité ouverture plutot que le mode manuel ...
Mais l'ambiance, meme avec ce léger flou, me plait bien.
I believe in persistency sometimes determinedly so, obstinate in the face of adversity. I believe in forever and 3 days, in dreams and soulmates, fairytales. I believe in wild, glorious, delicious dynamic that sings and hums through every communication. I believe in vibrant, luminous, electric, vital and deep connection. I believe in intensity that radiates heat, scatters stars, shivers in the air like a lightning storm, dances beneath your skin, makes you nervous, elated, hungry, naked. I believe in words that make you drown and leave you numb. I believe in intimacy. Also, I am not so narratively gracious sometimes. In which case i apologise.

'Condition of subject is problematic. In addition to the fractures and lacerations sustained on impact after her VTOL was shot down - Which I'd like to be on record as saying was idiotic and irresponsable - she also has 3rd tier burns on the majority of her body from the burning fuel leaking from ruptured fuel tanks. I recommend that the Arulan Cartel is immediately reprimanded for this. That this rare chance at NATO intel could be handled so indelicately is beyond infuriating, it's insanity. How can South America ever achieve independance with people such as this heading our operations?
On the rare occasion we bring the subject back up from her sedative induced sleep, she constantly mutters the word 'Morrow'. I do not know to what this refers to. Tomorrow? It is difficult to say.'

Taipei with the iconic 101 Tower in the afternoon sun from the Elephant Mountain. The whole business trip was more trauma than fun for me. And for others.
As some of you know - I recently had so called "boo boo"...
I can not walk and I'm in pain - which is not so bad coz I'm allowed to take very strong pain killers- after which I am very dizzy and very happy :)
But everything has a bad side - today I had to change bandage on my own and let me tell you - do not let any surgeons near you...ever! Never ever - it can end up badly - trust me :)
But anyway - I guess it's true what they say - inspiration comes from pain and trauma :P
DELFT - Een deel van de Markt in het centrum van Delft is ontruimd vanwege een incident in de Nieuwe Kerk. Er is iemand onwel geworden in het torengedeelte van de kerk en wordt gereanimeerd, zo zegt een handhaver tegen een verslaggever van Omroep West. Op welke hoogte het slachtoffer ligt is onbekend. Een zogenoemd hoogtereddingsteam probeert het slachtoffer naar beneden te halen met kraan.
Paaszaterdag rond 16.00 uur werden brandweerwagens, ambulances en tal van politieauto's naar de kerk gestuurd. De politie riep omstanders op de Markt te verlaten, zodat een traumahelikopter veilig op het aangrenzende plein kon landen.
Ook de terrassen, die vanwege het mooie lenteweer goed gevuld waren, moesten leeggemaakt worden. Een woordvoerder van de Nieuwe Kerk bevestigt dat er iemand niet goed is geworden, maar kan verder nog niks zeggen. De politie kan niet aangeven of het slachtoffer bijvoorbeeld een toerist is die de toren beklom.
