I captured this image of a rose at Rose Cottage in the Lake District of the UK several years ago while visiting there. Somehow this rose surviving into winter against the odds, illustrates the courage and valor of the Ukrainian people as they struggle against the odds with Putin the terrible and cruel tyrant who has attacked their country. I have been brought to tears more than once in the past few days as I follow the news, hoping against all hope that they will prevail and drive the aggressor from their homeland.
"I know of no higher fortitude than stubbornness in the face of overwhelming odds."
~ Louis Nizer
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine
Did you evert stop notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop this notice
This crying Earth this weeping shore
I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Although I know we've drifted far
What about the common man
Can't we set him free
What about children dying
Can't you hear them cry
Pray for Ukraine
Quand est-il des enfants mourants
Ne pouvons-nous pas les entendre pleurer
Die weißen Tauben sind müde.

Komm her Marie ein letztes Glas.
Genießen wir den Augenblick.
Ab morgen gibt's statt Wein nur Wasser.
Komm her und schenk uns noch mal ein.
So viel wird morgen anders sein - Marie die Welt wird langsam blasser.
Die weißen Tauben sind müde, sie fliegen lange schon nicht mehr.
Sie haben viel zu schwere Flügel und ihre Schnäbel sind längst leer.
Jedoch die Falken fliegen weiter.
Sie sind so stark wie nie vorher und ihre Flügel werden breiter und täglich kommen immer mehr.
Nur weiße Tauben fliegen nicht mehr.
Bleib noch Marie.
Der letzte Rest reicht für uns beide allemal.
Ab morgen gibt's statt Brot nur Steine.
Komm her und schenk uns noch mal ein.
Denn so wie heut' wird's nie mehr sein - Marie die Welt reißt von der Leine.
Die weißen Tauben sind müde.
Sie fliegen lang schon nicht mehr.
Sie haben viel zu schwere Flügel und ihre Schnäbel sind längst leer.
Jedoch die Falken fliegen weiter.
Sie sind so stark wie nie vorher und ihre Flügel werden breiter und täglich kommen immer mehr.
Nur weiße Tauben fliegen nicht mehr.
Sieh dort Marie das leere Bett - der Spiegel unsrer großen Zeit.
Ab morgen gibt's statt Glas nur Scherben.
Komm her und schenk uns noch mal ein.
Den letzten Schluck vom letzten Wein.
Marie die Welt beginnt zu sterben.
Die weißen Tauben sind müde.
Sie fliegen lang schon nicht mehr...
Sie haben viel zu schwere Flügel und ihre Schnäbel sind längst leer.
Jedoch die Falken fliegen weiter.
Sie sind so stark wie nie vorher und ihre Flügel werden breiter und täglich kommen immer mehr.
Nur weiße Tauben fliegen nicht mehr.
Die weißen Tauben sind müde.
Sie fliegen lang schon nicht mehr...
Sie haben viel zu schwere Flügel und ihre Schnäbel sind längst leer.
Die weißen Tauben fliegen nicht mehr.
Die weißen Tauben fliegen nicht mehr.

Hi friends.
I'm still alive. More or less all right. As much as possible during the war. And I came up with a new artwork I did a couple of days ago.
My heart is full of pain, my mental state is very strange. I will analyze all this after our victory. But now I live moment by moment and dream of the future. About mine, about my Ukraine and the whole world. It gives strength as well as your support.
Our land, our traditions, our history, our symbols, our anthem, our freedom - this is us.
We will win!

I was working on this for Smile on Saturday's theme "flag unflagged" but thought it might be a bit too processed for that group. Also, I really liked the red, white, and blue shot I did post to the group. And I thought it was especially suited for the theme - kind of echoing the US flag's stripes and the flares mimicking stars. I do like this image too, though, and it will be fine for Sliders Sunday. Slava Ukraini!
This started as a close-up shot of a large group of orange, white, and black balloons attached to a screen to serve as a background for people's selfies at a graduation party.

I captured this image of a soybean field last fall in Knox County. I used the Skylum Luminar Neo software program to edit and filter the golden brown soybeans to yellow and deepen the blue of the sky. The Skylum company and team is based in Kyiv, Ukraine. Many on their team have remained in Ukraine and are working and sheltering. We have chosen to support Ukraine through Save the Children.

Lying, dishonesty and political manipulation are nothing new. In the age of digital mass communication, however, these machinations have become endemic. The war in Ukraine is also a war of mis/information and this war is going on daily across all our media. Some of us may feel helpless when it comes to separating truth from falsehood. But we are not that helpless. Whenever we are confronted with a political message, we can ask one basic question: who is talking and what question is being asked (and, usually) answered? This will help to detect the “agenda” of the message, identify its argument and understand the claim that has been made. If we wish to go deeper into the analysis, we can try to identify also the underlying assumptions of the message, check the evidence that has been quoted and see whether or not the message makes sense. We are not that helpless. We can be skeptical and make distinctions. We can reject what is false and keep what is true.
(EXPLORE) Every year we have a tour in Winnipeg, called Doors Open, where you can visit historical buildings, places of interest, churches and museums for free.
We saw several of each last weekend, one of my favorites was a Ukrainian church (see interior below) that had it's own cultural display in the basement. These beautiful Easter eggs were showcased in glass drawers and we were given a tutorial of how they are made. To get an idea of the work involved, this video below will show you.

Manchester’s Ukrainian Community joins forces with other Nationalities in singing the Ukrainian National Anthem; and to say prayers for their families and friends back home. Let’s hope this horrible situation ends soon….
This tiny little Blue Tit matching the flag of Ukraine.. he has something that our World "leaders" don't have... a spine.
Never give in to crooks and bullies.
Praying for hope, love & peace for Ukraine. I've shed many tears for the horrors that are occuring, & being allowed to occur! If this doesn't stop, who's next...
These sunflowers were growing in Norfolk, UK, in 2020. However, sunflowers will now always remind me of Ukraine.
The most respected psychiatrists and sociologists in the world agree on one thing: Trump and Putin are two psychopaths who care nothing about the lives of human beings.
All our love, solidarity and support for the heroic Ukrainian people
Los más respetados y reconocidos psiquiatras y sociólogos del mundo coinciden en una cosa: Trump y Putin son dos psicópatas, a los que no les preocupa en absoluto la vida de los seres humanos.
Todo nuestro amor y solidaridad con el heroico pueblo Ucraniano.
