Nightly street scene on Sichuan Road (四川北路) in Shanghai.
In the center there is a 上海特产超市, "Shanghai Specialty Supermarket". This sells products that you'd get cheaper at other places, as so called "Shanghai specialties". At least this particular shop is cheaper than the similar themed rip-off stores around Yu Garden.

HSoS!
Not what you'd expect to see walking along Cullen Beach, but there he was chirruping away. He kept waddling around and falling in those huge (for him) footprints, then struggled to get out again, all the while calling for mummy. Ordinarily I leave nature to sort itself out, but it was heartbreaking to watch and we couldn't just leave him there all on his own with an incoming tide so intervened and did eventually successfully reunite him with his family.
This is another from that collection of flora I spotted near one of the main Canals on Berlin last Spring, the red was so glamorising and in such contrast to its immediate surrounds that it was a must to capture. It has this red carpet appeal of glamorised stars in all their magnanimous fakery of cosmopolitan perfection and appeal, regurgitating forth their un-mitigating sputum of morality and liberal righteousness upon a real world they never lived in; you'd probably find a more interesting subject to discuss with the homeless guy sat next to you at the bus shelter in the pouring rain. At least that was always my experience anyway.
I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)

This one posed in Ecuador, but Vermilion Flycatchers also nest just 30 minutes from my house. You’d think that would take some of the magic out of it, but no. He showed up like he knew the assignment: bright crimson feathers, hot pink bougainvillea, sage green velvet in the background—like someone hired a stylist with too much access to the color wheel.
And the bird? A five-and-a-half-inch diva with wings. The males always look like they were dipped in strawberry syrup and dared to act casual about it. The females are subtler—grayish, peach-bellied, reasonable. But the males? The males are walking exclamation points.
He didn’t flit. He didn’t hunt. He just perched like a living Valentine and dared me to get the angle wrong.
He’s not here to blend or behave or be meek—
Just a crimson show-off on a bougainvillea boutique.
One of these magical Moments

Am I Blue?
Am I blue
Am I blue
Ain't these tears in my eyes telling you
Am I blue
You'd be too
If each plan
With your man
Done fell through
Was a time
I was his only one
But now I'm
The sad and lonely one, lordy
Was I gay
'Til today
Now he's gone and we're through
Am I blue
Was I gay
'Til today
Now he's gone and we're through
Am I blue
Oh, he's gone, he left me
Am I blue

Your eyes, so crisp, so green
Sour apple baby, but you taste so sweet
You got hips like Jagger and two left feet
And I wonder if you'd like to meet
Your voice is velvet through a telephone
You can come to mine, but both my roommates are home
Think I know a bar where they would leave us alone
And I wonder if you'd take it slow
Oh, we're dancing in my living room
And up come my fists
And I say, "I'm only playing," but
The truth is this
That I've never seen a mouth that I would kill to kiss
And I'm terrified, but I can't resist
And I said
Beautiful stranger, here you are in my arms and I know
That beautiful strangers only come along to do me wrong
And I hope, beautiful stranger, here you are in my arms
But I think it's finally, finally, finally, finally, finally safe
For me to fall
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
I grab your hand and then we run to the car
Singing in the street and playing air guitar
Stuck between my teeth just like a candy bar
And I wonder if it goes too far to say
I've never recognized a purer face
You stopped me in my tracks and put me right in my place
Used to think that loving meant a painful chase
But you're right here now and I think you'll stay
Oh, we're dancing in my living room
And up come my fists
And I say, "I'm only playing," but
The truth is this
I've never seen a mouth that I would kill to kiss
And I'm terrified, but the truth is this
I said
Beautiful stranger, here you are in my arms and I know
That beautiful strangers only come along to do me wrong and I hope
Beautiful stranger, here you are in my arms
And I think it's finally, finally, finally, finally, finally safe
For me to fall
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Yeah, I think it's fi
nally, finally, finally, finally
It's been a while, I'm not who I was before
You look surprised, your words don't burn me anymore
Been meaning to tell you, but I guess it's clear to see
Don't be mad, it's just the brand new kind of me
Can't be bad, I found a brand new kind of free
Careful with your ego, he's the one that we should blame
Had to grab my heart back
God know something had to change
I thought that you'd be happy
I found the one thing I need, why you mad
It's just the brand new kind of me
It took a long long time to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try
It took one too many excuses, one too many lies
Don't be surprised, don't be surprised
if i talk a little louder
If I speak up when you're wrong
If I walk a little taller
I'd be known to you too long
If you noticed that I'm different
Don't take it personally
Don't be mad, it's just the brand new kind of me
And it ain't bad, I found a brand new kind of free
Oh, it took a long long road to get here
It took a brave brave girl to try
I've taken one too many excuses, one too many lies
Don't be surprised, oh see you look surprised
Hey, if you were a friend, you want to get know me again
If you were worth a while
You'd be happy to see me smile
I'm not expecting sorry
I'm too busy finding myself
I got this
I found me, I found me, yeah
I don't need your opinion
I'm not waiting for your okay
I'll never be perfect, but at least now I'm brave
Now, my heart is open
And I can finally breathe
Don't be mad, it's just the brand new kind of free
That ain't bad, I found a brand new kind of me
Don't be mad, it's just a brand new time for me.
Hello, it's me
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
To go over everything
They say that time's supposed to heal ya
But I ain't done much healing
Hello, can you hear me?
I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet
There's such a difference between us
And a million miles
Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call, you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore
Hello, how are you?
It's so typical of me to talk about myself, I'm sorry
I hope that you're well
Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happened?
It's no secret that the both of us are running out of time
So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call, you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore
Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call, you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Every image tells a story but when viewing this image you'd never guess how it came to be.
I was on a mission to get to the North Algodones Dunes Wilderness in Southern California on the Mexican border before Sunset... I left Phoenix Az. early enough, I thought, to drive the 211 miles, but I had only been there one other time and I thought I would have plenty of time to shoot the Sunset and then some...I was a bit off in my calculation.
I barely made it in time to capture just a few images before the Sun was gone and I was left standing there in darkness. On any other night, like a Moonless night, that would have been fine, but it was a full moon, and the clouds of a storm was moving fast across the desert.
I am happy with the images I was able to capture. Next time, I'll make sure I have plenty of time to travel the two-lane, winding road to get there.
Zoom in for the details
Thanks for stopping by

You'd better hope and pray
That you make it safe back to your own world
You'd better hope and pray
That you wake one day in your own world
'Cuz when you sleep at night
They don't hear your cries in your own world
Only time will tell
If you can break the spell back in your own world

I don't really know why this song "popped" into mind ....
Maybe it is to do with being around 90mtrs above the River Thames.
The station is West Silvertown on the Docklands Railway, shot from the Emirates airline cable car.
you get a Emirates Airlines boarding pass to ride, so i thought i would add some cloud to add to the illusion of being on an aircraft.
and yes, it was raining ;-))

Do you remember the Mendelian laws of inheritance? We've learned them in school on the basis of how the eye colours of fruit flies (the notorious Drosophila Melanogaster) are inherited to further generations according to dominant or recessive characteristics, although Gregor Mendel himself conducted his groundbreaking genetic experiments with pea plants. Unfortunately, the significance of Mendel's laws was never truly understood or acknowledged in his lifetime (1822 – 1884). His studies, however, were rediscovered three decades later, at the turn of the 20th century, and, following their rediscovery, American biologist Thomas Hunt Morgan (1866 – 1945) began to experiment with Drosophila in his "Fly Room" at Columbia University. It was Morgan who discovered that genes are carried on chromosomes; he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1933. Further Fly experiments (with a less successful outcome) were conducted by a certain Dr. Seth Brundle in 1986 (aka "The Fly"). So where exactly does my image come in here, you may have already asked yourself (if you haven't stopped reading my lengthy introduction long before – which I could totally understand). Well, during one of those numerous teaching experiments with fruit flies, which numerous generations of students have conducted ever since modern genetics became part of school curriculums, something must have gone very wrong. And who knows, maybe Dr. Seth "Brundlefly" Brundle himself had led one of those biology experiments? Experiments in which some dinosaur genes were mixed with those of an innocent fruit fly... Which resulted in the creation the biggest Drosophila the world has ever seen – the Olympic Brachosophila Megalogaster? Nonsense, of course, and you know it ;-) But doesn't this kaleidoscoped image of the Olympic stadium's interior (the roof, mostly, taken at a dutch angle) look just like an ultra close-up of a (fruit) fly's face? Not one that you'd like to see buzzing around your fruit bowl, that's for sure, but let's say that the other "third party genes" that were used in this crazy experiment came from a puppy. So this would be the friendliest, cuddliest giant dinosaur puppy fruit fly you'll ever come across :) OK, I'd rather stop before you start to believe that I was a part of those experiments as well ;-)
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, stay safe and take care, dear Flickr friends!
Drosophila Megalogaster – Schau mir in die Augen, Kleines :)
Ihr erinnert Euch doch bestimmt noch alle an die Mendelsche Vererbungslehre und die berühmte Drosophila Melanogaster mit ihren dominanten bzw. rezessiven Genen, die über die Vererbung der jeweiligen Augenfarbe entscheiden. Was wäre, wenn jemand bei einem der unzähligen Biologie-Experimente, die Generationen von Schülern mit Fruchtfliegen durchgeführt haben, nicht nur Fruchtfliegen(-Gene) gekreuzt, sondern evtl. noch ein paar Dinosaurier-Gene dazwischen gestreut hätte? Das Ergebnis könnte die größte Fruchtfliege sein, die die Welt je gesehen hat, die unglaubliche "Olympische Brachosophila Megalogaster" mit Augen so groß wie zwei Stadiondächer ;-) Nun ja, Ihr habt es schon erraten, dies ist eine kleine Spielerei mit einem Foto vom Olympiastadion für den Sliders Sunday. Ich hatte hier einfach aus Spaß mal eine Aufnahme mit schräger Perspektive gemacht und dabei überwiegend das offene Dach mit ins Bild genommen. Nachdem ich in Photoshop das Bild kopiert, gespiegelt und neu zusammengesetzt hatte, schaute mich plötzlich eine riesige (Frucht-)Fliege an ;-) Keine, die man gerne daheim um den Früchteteller herumschwirren sehen möchte, aber ich kann Euch beruhigen: Bei dem manipulierten Experiment kamen als "Drittanbieter-Gene" nicht nur die eines Dinosauriers hinzu, sondern auch die eines kuscheligen Welpen. Diese Fliege ist also gaaaanz lieb und verschmust und will bloß spielen ;-)
Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Start in die neue Woche, bleibt gesund und passt auf Euch auf!
If I've deleted any of your faves,I'm really sorry.It's just that the photos lately have been uploading twice,I don't know why that's happening.You may refave if you'd like,thanks.The shot was taken on Berwick Boulevard in Savannah,Georgia
