Hello Everyone.
The first grass was harvested on 16-5-2022.
The yield is lower than last year.
still a good yield given the circumstances.
The drought continues.
The corn is above the ground, 2 centimeters
now waiting for the rain
Hopefully by the end of this week.
Artificial spraying is otherwise the only solution.
its a difficult time for the farmers
Greetings all the farm animals , Caroline
Recently traveling around my rural surroundings I came upon a "yellow-dressed moment". The field was adorned with yellow and it took my breathe away. The richness of color and the light were a once in a lifetime experience. A week later it was gone and faded....Amidst my own sorrows over the dying journey of my aunt/mother this spectacle roused my awe and yielded a wonderful respite.

I have never known hunger like these insects that feast on me
A thousand teeth and yours among them, I know
Our hunger's appeased
Our heart beats becoming slow

Sunrise at the Mexican Hat formation with the Mexican Blanket in the lower right. Taken just outside the town of Mexican Hat, Utah.
This geologic oddity gets it name because it looks just like a man wearing a sombrero. It is a giant hoodoo rising next to the San Juan River near the small town of Mexican Hat, named after the rock. You can see it well while driving by on Highway 163, but it's worth a stop for better views of the formation and the river below.
After shooting the Milky Way all night, its tough to pass up on the sunrise being just a couple of hours later, so I usually try and stay up long enough to see if its gonna be worth the time. Having passed by this stop some ten times in the middle of the day over the last three years, (which makes for a lackluster photo), but this time I was on my way back from shooting and decided to wait here to see what the sky would yield. The past couple of days had been plague by smoke from the Brian's Head fire and several others in the area so I think some of this sky color is from smoke. ;-/
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!!
Have a great day my friends!! :)

A water spill on my black granite kitchen countertop yielded this fascinating image. The water magnified the reflected backsplash tiles and the white grouting. It even sharpened the focus.
This is an image from my Holga Pano. The image below was from my iPhone. Some of you wanted to see the comparison. I favor both but of course ;) Analogue will always have my heart.
One of the most scenic roads we have ever traveled is the Icefields Parkway in the Canadian Rockies. Keep alert for wildlife when driving the entire length of this beautiful road. ;)
Isolated from other walls and buttes working to become isolated pillars, Standing Rock is a well known feature of Monument Basin in Canyonlands, often seen and photographed from Grandview Point on Island in the Sky 2000’ / 600 m above. The north-facing slopes still hold snow from a significant storm 3 days prior to when this photo was taken.
Standing Rock was first climbed in 1962 by Layton Kor and colleagues, because as they put it “it won’t always be there.” They described the Organ Rock shale that the pillar is made of as "layers of rye-krisp sandwiched between layers of kitty litter." As you might guess few people have been on the summit of this 300’ / 90 m tower.
I had visited this area a year ago, managing to get a flat tire and lacking the appropriate lug nuts for the spare… that saga is best forgotten ;-). This year’s trip was successful in that I managed to drive the entire White Rim road, though the conditions were tricky at times with snow, ice, and slippery mud on steep slopes. The weather was also dicey at times with high winds, occasional snow, and cold temperatures. But hey, dramatic weather sometimes yields beautiful scenes.
One might wax eloquent on the migratory powers of our Hoverfly! It has been found flying over the Ocean more than 200 km from the coast. But even more interesting is a discovery made in 2015 in Spain by Antonio Robledo, head of research&development of Biobest Sistemas Biológicos. Researching pest control on paprika in greenhouses, he found that Eupeodes corollae is an excellent natural assistant to farmers. Its larvae feed on the aphids that terrorise those pepper plants. And besides the adult Hoverfly is an excellent pollinator for the flowers that will yield the peppery fruits. A dual purpose insect and eco-friendly, too. In 2019 Robledo's discovery began to be implemented on an industrial scale.
In the photo Eupeodes is not 'working' - perhaps on migratory holiday from Spain - but indulging on Oxalis articulata, Pink Sorrel, in the Amsterdam Hortus.
It was a windy, rainy day. The cave you see was dark and humid. Although the weather was unstable, the clouds would give way from time to time for just a few minutes and let sunlight through. I waited for hours, when finally the clouds opened up and a wonderful beam of light lit the scene. The rain stopped, the waves crashed and the birds soared.
My thinking spot right before a storm, it started raining just before I walked back into the yard. lol
which it requires strength, strength and courage to yield to :-)

My recent night excursions have yielded great Blue Hour landscapes. Mount Lougheed is named for one of Alberta's leading citizens from the early 20th century his grandson was Premier of Alberta during the 70's and 80's, the Wind Tower is the impressive pinnacle on the right. The Canadian Pacific Railway follows the edge of the lake, no trains that evening:(.

What suspiciously looks like gift wrapping ribbons, actually is a copper (and other materials) scouring cloth for scratch-free cleaning of Ceran stove tops or pots, and pans. It's double-layered, almost like a glove (but with two open sides).
For the photo, I placed it over a small, translucent, tube-like container with the intention of separating the two layers and also preventing it from collapsing, as it's rather soft.
At first, I focused on the foreground, but the results were too busy and a little chaotic, even, due to the cloth's weave. Then, I focused on the background, those tiny copper ribbon tangles, which turned the first cloth layer into nice bokeh balls.
I also wanted to add a little extra bling, but the light stars (when focusing on the foreground) didn't turn out nicely this time, and focusing on the copper balls in the background didn't yield any stars at all. However, the star filter created a grid-like pattern in the bokeh balls, and I decided to leave it that way because it mimics the general weave pattern of the scouring cloth.
I am very busy today and will catch up with you tonight.
HMM, Everyone!
Better on black?

After a day on the trail in the Virginia Highlands the crisp air and moonless sky yielded to a wonderful starry sky. At least at first. By the time I was bedding down for the evening on Wilburn Ridge a heavy dew was forming on everything. My lens was no exception. I felt fortunate to be able to salvage this image from what I thought surely was a lost night of shooting. I was able to clean up the files where it wasn't even visible but decided to include a little of it's soft focus effect to bring the memory back (at least for me). By morning the winds were howling up the mountain, driving with it a fog so thick it would condense on the inside of the tent and provide a gentile indoor (or in tent) rain that would strategically find a bare neck or ear to drop it's icy little gift upon. Surely it beats an alarm clock on a work day though.
489 stacked images 25 seconds at ISO 500 over 1 image of 25 seconds at ISO 5000 for the Milky Way. Roughly 3.5 hours of star trails with a view to the west.
Water is fluid, soft, and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong.

Yields in slate quarries were incredibly low - for every 20-30 tons extracted, only 1 ton was usable- resulting in millions of tons of slate rubbish. The so called "rubbish men" cleared the waste rocks from the galleries and built the tips of waste which surrounded the quarry. These rubbish men were usually paid for the tons of material removed, unlike the other quarrymen who were paid by the number of slate slabs they produced. Huge waste tips can be seen all over North Wales.

Big rig trucker heading south on the Alaska Highway, most likely empty.
Learned a couple of days later in the trip that a lot of extra loads had come up with supplies after folks around Anchorage emptied the store shelves post earthquake.

For those who might wonder, I was pulled off on the side of the road.

Time spent in prayer will yield more than that given to work. Prayer alone gives work its worth and its success. Prayer opens the way for God Himself to do His work in us and through us. Let our chief work as God's messengers be intercession; in it we secure the presence and power of God to go with us. (Andrew Murray)
The first official day of operations for CPKC yielded southbound loaded grain GKCMXI12, with a fitting lashup of CP 7030, the Lord Strathcona's Horse ACu, and KCS 4859, the Silver Sausage. The train had a pretty quick run through Houston, seen heading through the wiggle at Tower 87, and passing Englewood Yard's hump.
Originating in Council Bluffs, IA on April 12, this was the last ever KCS train to crest over the top of Rich Mountain, just hours before the merger took effect.
