... de l'hellébore qui traverse impassible les premiers frimas pour mieux fleurir et nous donner au coeur de l'hiver les poétiques
" Roses de Noël ". Les nuits d'hiver, le vent frais du matin, la gelée naissante à la fraîcheur du soir ou la neige.. voilà ce qui convient à l'ellébore. Alors que le ardin s'endort doucement, l'hellébore se réveille et déploie ses grandes fleurs immaculées qui se nuancent par la suite d'une palette allant du vert au pourpre en passant par le rose ancien.
- La petite hellébore s'accommode de l'hiver,
Comme un sémaphore, modeste, elle génère une luminosité,
Qui ferait pâlir les roses d'un merveilleux été !
En janvier maussade, au jardin c'est une aubade,
D'une plante hivernale même pas froid même pas mal !
Qu'une leçon pour colimaçons et les ronchons
Pestant contre la pluie , le froid et l'ennuie.
Tu accroches le regard des gens hagards , interdits, éberlués
de tant de volonté ils s'abandonnent à la mélancolie.
Et toi petite fleur cher à mon coeur, tu leur dis
Ne restez pas au lit, rebellez vous contre la calamité.
Vêtez vous de couleurs dehors il y aura toujours

- Liquorice and Fruit Winegums
These sweets are one of the most popular in The Netherlands. They are 1/2 Liquorice and 1/2 Fruit flavoured wine gums.
The Dutch LOVE liquorice or ‘Drop.’ They eat the most amount of liquorice per capita of any people around the world – the average person eats more than 4 pounds of it per year!

After a month of contemplating and shooting desert landscapes, I was hungry for genre compositions, and today I was definitely lucky! Although it is unlikely that the sheep like what is happening ...
The process of dynamic arrangement of human figures and animal figures in the local space of my photo-picture,
a figures which are in constant motion and do not stop for a second.. It definitely creates a feeling of life for me now !
But all this violent movement is just a careful examination of a tiny point in the endless space in the middle of the hills ... and we are like restless microorganisms in a drop of water ...
here is just an illustration to the story in the previous photo in a Kazakh photo album from Mongolia

a crown on the head cut off by the edge of a photo frame is not a mistake when using a viewfinder devoid of parallax correction - I look through the viewfinder of a SLR camera.
But this is my desire - to bring , show randomness and momentum
in this frozen image of time with the help of this cinematic visual technique.

Etta loves the Vets ... she gets to greet Receptionists, Nurses, Vets and maybe visitors, including other dogs AND cats (she doesn't get so close to the cats) ... and she always gets plenty of attention AND treats😂
Daily Dog Challenge: Greeting
For those of you following this beloved cat of mine, she's still with us. Not doing too well. Everytime I think that I must take her to the Vet and have her put to sleep, she springs back for a bit as she did this morning when we all got up. She ate some (not enough) and drank lots of water (which is good). Now she's back in her bed and probably will sleep for hours and hours. Trusting in the Lord ...
Vetter Falls in Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park, British Columbia, is a cascade where Vetter Creek plunges over ancient lava flows. It is surrounded by coastal temperate rainforest. The photo is a panorama from 3 horizontal files.
I think its probably been over three years since I have photographed a Robin. Something I would look forward to every winter when they come down from the Mountains and can be found closer to home. They visit the farm every year so I was able to play with this lovely make Flame Robin (Petroica phoenicea) who was rather bold and posed for me nicely on this pole. I couldn't get near the females.
Our time ended on abit of a sad note when I found the resident Echidna that has featured in some of my photos hit by a car out the front. She was alive so I stood by her to stop other idiots speeding past and doing more damage while the Sherpa got a box and some gloves (very spiky animals).
None of the Vets were open so we got in contact with Wildlife Victoria. We eventually got connected with a lovely couple who were wildlife carers 20 minutes away and took the echidna there. She was hit on the nose which is their most sensitive part. I couldn't tell what other damage had been done. My main concern was that she was in pain and suffering. The couple were a retired nurse and medic so the echidna was in good hands and will get pain relief. The carers will take it to Healesville Sanctuary and if it can be saved, it will nursed back to health and released right back where we found her. I am hoping for a good outcome.
my vet came to check on Conor yesterday and she thinks he will make it to his 18th birthday next week.
keep on sending that good energy. it works! 💓
❤️❤️❤️
Two class Dv12 diesel locomotives from Siilinjärvi to Pieksämäki just went trought railway tunnel of Pieni Neulamäki.
Etta was very excited to visit the Vets today. She has been very itchy so had an injection (that has worked in the past). She also had a biopsy of the lump on her head which came back negative for mast cell carcinoma. Good news.

Mine would be to go bush, but every time we go out for a walk now Etta wants to go to the Vets! It's just a 3 minute walk in the opposite direction to the bush. So I guess that would be her choice ... visit the Vets everyday ... if we try to walk past on the way to the shops she wants to go in ... & they have said we are welcome to come in on the way past for a treat! ... they do give her treats ...
CSX B229 northbound at Tyner in Chattanooga, TN with CN 3233 one of their Veterans painted tier 4s on point.
With deep respect for the Veterans who have stood between us and a deep abyss.
Currently 100% of our forces are volunteers. They are paid peanuts and their families struggle to make ends meet.
I was surprised to hear on the History Channel this morning that only 20% of the Viet Nam Vets were draftees. I would have thought the inverse from popular lore.
Above are photos of my dad, my two brothers and me. I am the cute baby on the bottom left. My dad with the Lyndon Johnson big ear is on the top left. My older brother is on the top right and I'm pretty sure he is gay - if he is not gay he is missing a good chance. (Just look at the necklace he is wearing.) My younger brother is giving the finger to the world on the bottom right - a trait that he continues to this day.
I thought about the significance of this day when I saw a goofy wall hanging my mom put together many years ago and gave me showing these 4 photos. My Mom and Dad are long gone, but I thought of my Mom carefully cutting photos into circles to place in the frame as a special gift for me. – I removed them to scan for this.
So, my thought is that all of the Vets were once babes in their mom’s arms. They are not statistics to be used by politicians of any stripe. Both sides suck in my opinion.
My dad and both of his brothers served in the Navy during WWII in the Pacific. One of his brothers died in service. My mother’s only brother served in the Navy in WWII in the Atlantic. My brothers and I also served in the Navy.
My Father-in-Law served in North Africa and Italy.
Two of my wife’s 3 brothers served in the Air Force.
My older brother’s son served in the Army in Iraq during the first (1991?) conflict in a WMD unit.
My younger brother’s son is currently serving in Iraq in the Army as an interpreter. (Prayers for his safety are welcome and requested).
All of us volunteered.
I did diddlysquat in terms of personal sacrifice during my time in service.
Today thousands serve in harms way and deserve our prayers or good wishes.
I salute the brave men and women who serve and have served to keep us free.
Etta loves the Vets. As we passed on our walk today she wanted to go in, but we had an appointment for tomorrow just to check that the ulcer on her eye is healing. After we got home she scratched the contact lens & so she got her way & we went to the Vet today. Fortunately it looks like the ulcer has healed & the contact lens is no longer needed. And Etta had treats & pats.

I often use my daughter to 'vet' my images and this was her reaction! However, for some reason, I like it; in fact I would say it is one of my favourite woodland images to date. I spotted this bracken covered slope as we were heading out of the Glen and knew it would make a great backdrop to a decent subject. I just hope I have chosen wisely....
Etta loves going to Selwood House Vets, Hazelbrook! We were just passing by this time.

Today was kind of a stressful day. We had to bring our Irish Cob mare to the vet, to see if everything was good with her foal. One of the best Vet Clinic we know is at Evergarden Equestrian, so we asked for a meet up and luckily, they give us one really fast. Our mare is at her fifth month of pregnancy and as she already had a problem with her previous baby around the same time, we rather prevent a drama to happen. They did all the exams they needed and as you can see, she was pretty relaxed, prove that you can go to EE vet clinic with your eyes close, your horses will be well treated ! After the vet did all the checks on the mare, they confirmed that everything was fine ! Stress relief ! Now we can go back to the Ranch and put her out in her field so she can enjoy the rest of the day.

I took Sadie to the vet last week for the first time since we adopted her 2 months ago. Typically, the rescue groups want new owners to bring a newly adopted pet to the vet the first week they have them but Sadie was terrified of car rides and was recovering from her heartworm treatment so a stressed, racing heart was actually dangerous for her. So we waited until she was 2 months post heartworm treatment and we've been working on car rides and she is now a champ at them.
She got through her first vet visit with flying colors. She appears to be a young, healthy dog with no obvious medical issues. She weighs 49 pounds and shouldn't gain any more weight.
I have the day off but am required to link in to my first ever Zoom meeting for work in a few minutes. Wish me luck!

13/365. because this is what i'm focused on 110% right now.
We took her to the vet for "air licking" which is a psuedo type of seizure. Well they took blood from the underside part of her neck for like 5 bloods tests & her neck was all gross with clumps of dried blood. Then when they clipped her nails they cut one of her pads so she needed the bandage. And she gas neck spurs so from her fighting her neck is hurting her now. Plus we have to wait days for the test results to see if this is seizure related & her doses need to be adjusted or if it's caused by "something else" like tumors or something. So needless to say I'm a nervous wreck on the verge of a panic attack.
i normally really like our vet but today it just seemed there was no compassion at all. even the girl at the front desk said it looked like a vampire got hold of her!
ETA-after a few minutes she figured out how to walk with the bandage. we only had to leave it on for an hour or two. she ate a ton of food, drank water then wanted outside :) we took off the bandage & though it's not bleeding anymore, the cut to her bad looks pretty bad. they put the glue on it, so hopefully that's the end of it. and i gave her a dose of pain med. poor baby!
