"All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too,
Outside, in the distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
The wind began to howl"
-Bob Dylan
Ladies View overlooks the Lakes of Killarney, Derrycunnihny Oak Woods, the Eagles Nest, Torc Mountain either side of the lakes. To the left the Gap of Dunloe, Purple Mountain and the Macgillycuddy Reeks. Queen Victoria's ladies-in-waiting visited here during the royal visit in 1861. They were so enraptured with the view that it was named after them.
A cool perspective from the moss-covered water flumes curving through the fall foliage. Choosing a different view point makes all the difference in the world.

A better view of what I wore to work last Saturday.
Probably not the choice considering I was doing my real job inspecting accident damaged vehicles for insurance companies.
It was a good experience it has to be said, Imagine if you can being one of my customers a guy in his late forties with a ford ford with front end damage, You walk into the building up to the bodyshop desk and find me! You introduce yourself and i respond by confirming who you are the model and reg of the car you own followed by OK i will be right with you.
You look not really believing what has just happened.
I had that look twice, Not so much the my being trans but more it was me who was going to inspect the damage.
It got even better at the vehicle with me bending over the engine bay, kneeling down to look at the damage and explaining how we were going to repair the damage or advising that the vehicle was a total loss.
Each customer was very good and after the initial reaction they settled and accepted the situation.The reaction would have been same had i been a genetic woman.
So my first customer facing work experience went brilliantly.
However storm clouds are gathering on the horizon. Don't worry nothing bad as such.

"Creating a new theory is not like destroying an old barn and erecting a skyscraper in its place. It is rather like climbing a mountain, gaining new and wider views, discovering unexpected connections between our starting points and its rich environment. But the point from which we started out still exists and can be seen, although it appears smaller and forms a tiny part of our broad view gained by the mastery of the obstacles on our adventurous way up."
~Albert Einstein~
The quote is probably a little heavy for a Friday evening! As I look over my life - even just the past few months - I can see the path I have journey up, the places I have passed through and the greater view I have gained. I think as long as we can keep learning and growing, we will never feel "old". Perhaps this is the fountain of youth!

Latin Name: Heuchera
Heuchera is a genus of evergreen, herbaceous perennial plants in the family Saxifragaceae, all native to North America. Common names include alumroot and coral bells.
Photographed in our back garden, even before the plant throws up its long airy stems of tiny flower panicles the leaves give an interesting show in the garden. We have various types and colours of heuchera growing in various areas around our garden and the different varieties come in multitudes of colours and markings on the leaves!
This is part of a spring floral series, showing some of the colours and plants in our garden in April/May/June.
Taken with my Canon EOS 7D and Canon EF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens, and framed in Photoshop.

Going back and taking a look at photos I never processed last year. This is a view of the Manhattan skyline from the Liberty House Restaurant. I was given access for a few moments to the upstairs balcony since a wedding was in progress.

This View you can't see in just 100 years
Actually it takes 100's years to make such thing like this, and the nature was very generous to give us suck nice view.
This is in place called AlKhiran, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman
Looking forward to see you there :)

Hooded Grouse Locust - Paratettix cucullatus
I did not really have a dorsal view, but this does show the top of the hopper a bit better. Quoting comments by @aispinsects on iNaturalist at:

"Median carina of pronotum flat near anterior edge, not undulate, always extending past tips of hind femora, mid femora ventrally with 2-3 distinct lobes"
I believe the ridge (carina) on the pronotum is shown here a bit better than in the other images.
