Wise words from a wise man. "Against every form of tyranny over the mind of man" by Thomas Jefferson.

I sat next to this calm grey or blue heron in Boca Raton, Florida for a half hour - and his equanimity was inspiring. Maybe some rubbed off.

Enhanced with a violet filter...

Wood of grapevine trunk and arms is the source of valuable constituents especially during the first stages of the annual grapevine cycle and also later, leading finally to the maturation of grapes in terms of the appropriate concentration of the various pigments (flavonoids) in berries.

Took the Panasonic G6 and 14-140 lens out for a walk. This is a test of the OIS at the long end. A bit of blur, but not bad for 1/8 second at 280mm equivalent!

How better to end my COtoWA series than with a nice sunset? And with every conclusion of the day you should be a little bit wiser; so here's a good quote:

 

“..nature. It alone is infinitely rich, and it alone forms the great artist.” -Goethe

 

Thanks everyone!

I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands,

He looks at you once, you know he understands,

Don't need any shield,

When you're out in the field.

Peter Gabriel

" He is a wise man who does not grieve

for the things which he has not,

but rejoices

for those which he has. "

Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) over Lake Erie

This interesting dog appeared to be thinking quite intently as I snuck of shot of him.

A very wintery looking scene at Wise Een Tarn with the Langdales providing a familiar yet alpine looking backdrop.

"Oh wise one, I seek some guidance from you

My heart and my mind are being torn in two

Please can you point me in the right direction

I am frightened about this kind of situation

Can you ruffle your feathers, spread your wings

Please wise old owl at least show me something."
