One heart stands alone.

 

For Macro Mondays, micro hearts shot with 20mm extension tube on 50mm f/1.8.

I was in a picmonkey mood and played around with all sorts of processing, you'll have to let me know if you like the "before" or "after" better.

 

This spot is the site of the Living Prairie Museum and has a few acres of just natural prairie landscape behind it. I was hoping to see a few crocuses starting to pop up, but not yet! Happy 1st of May. :))

A lenticular cloud at Grand Teton National Park. Lenticular clouds are stationary lens-shaped clouds that form at high altitudes. They are normally aligned at right-angles (90°) to the wind direction--September 3, 2009

A couple of hungry barn owls hunting for mice or voles under snow in the Derbyshire Peak District. Because of the snow, ice and freezing temperatures the owls struggle to locate their prey so need to hunt in the daylight hours, often in full sunshine.

An older photo from autumn, when the woods were sunny and beautiful.

 

I've been having some really stressful weeks due to work and couldn't really enjoy my holidays so far. Christmas was stressful and I fell ill right afterwards. But today I finished the two big jobs I had at the end of the year and now I can finally concentrate on the uni work I have been forced to ignore so many times since the semester started.

Have a wonderful weekend!

<a href="http://www.jardindescimes.com" le lys : un peu d’Histoire

 

Rapporté d’Orient en France par les Croisés, le lis (blanc) fut associé à la vierge Marie. Le lis fleurit alors dans les œuvres et ouvrages religieux dédiés à Marie : fleurs de lys, couronnes de lis et tapis de lis y sont abondamment représentés.

 

La fleur de lys a été l’emblème du pouvoir et/ou du sacré dans de nombreuses civilisations. En France, le lys devient le signe de la souveraineté à la fin du XIIe siècle. Le motif floral du lis est brodé sur les habits du sacre royal et les monarques le choisissent comme insigne. Jusqu'à la Révolution, la fleur de lys symbolisera la France.

 

Le lis, superbe fleur, est à l’origine des prénoms Liliane et Lilian.

This was a tough assignment. When I was a child our Uncle lived with us and he would give me and my siblings a dime every day. I would save it up and at the end of the week we could bring money to school with a passbook and they would deposit our money into a bank account. They would enter the amount in the passbook. Perhaps this is why I am pretty good at saving!

HMM para todos

The Yellow Mounds of the Badlands was easily a favorite stop, particularly so, on this evening. While the mustard color of the mounds usually take center stage at this stop, the sky was stole the show. Enjoy!

A cielo abierto nos deja

la crisis un mal regalo,

ahora que ya tenemos

la Navidad aquí al lado.

Lo malo no es ver el cielo

que es ese humano lugar

refugio de quien confía

algún día alcanzar.

Lo malo es ver debajo

casi todo esquilmado,

donde sólo el agua encuentra

un lugar como reposo,

más no se puede tomar.

¡Qué malo es tener sed,

tener el agua en un cuenco

y no poderla beber!

Y así, entre crisis y esperanza,

miramos cómo en el cielo

brilla una luz sencilla

que nos anuncia gozosa

el nacer de un nuevo día,

y pone color en el suelo

al calor de una mirada.

Muchos caminos se abren,

todos tuvieron su vida,

y hoy a cielo abierto esperan,

entre tanto laberinto,

una confiada salida.

A dramatic plexiglass shield, creeping up from under the snow. Supposedly, it's an artwork made by Carsten Höller.

A deep feeling of being at the right place, living the time of my life with the right person.

I feel like in a cocoon. Like nothing bad can happen, even if I know life decides on its own... I feel confident. I want to trust life now, I want to walk my eyes closed because I'm not scared anymore, and at the same time I want to keep them wide open because I don't want to miss a single second of the beauty around me, through my magic glasses of happiness.

The California scrub jay (Aphelocoma californica), is a species of scrub jay native to western North America. It ranges from southern British Columbia throughout California west of the Sierra Nevada. The California scrub jay was once lumped with the island scrub jay, and Woodhouse's scrub jay, collectively called the western scrub jay. The group was also lumped with the Florida scrub jay; the taxon was then called, simply, the scrub jay. The California scrub jay is nonmigratory and can be found in urban areas, where it can become tame and will come to bird feeders. While many refer to scrub jays as "blue jays", the blue jay is a different species of bird entirely. In recent years, the California scrub jay has expanded its range north into the Tsawwassen region of British Columbia.

I guess this makes me the better person, doesn't it?

Listen

A picture from a young snow leopard, I've seen at Zoo Karlsruhe.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - While this day of stormchasing was somewhat frustrating, it ended with a beautiful view of a thunderhead at sunset over the Sandhills. It's so empty out here that it's easier to find a wind mill than another person.

A foggy Winter morning in Florida. This was taken in our woods.

 

Thank you all for your comments and invites.

À la recherche...

  

Per una giacca di velluto marrone

avrei dato metà del mio regno.

Ricordo quella che avevo al liceo,

la cacciatora color testa di moro.

 

Passerà una vita per averne

un’altra (intendo giacca).

Adesso è nell’armadio

e me la provo. Con, senza, cravatta.

Penso a una primavera da viaggiare

ad un autunno logoro di cuoio.

 

Ma chi potrebbe darmi tre castagne

degne di quei bottoni di pelle sul velluto

che così gonfi e dolci

sorvegliano con disincanto

il mio tempo perduto?
