“Hiding Behind A Mask" symbolizes the concealment of the ego behind an artificial mask.
Masking is a process in which an individual changes or "masks" their natural personality. Depending on who they are with, what they are facing, and the situation at which they stand.
It is important to acknowledge that it is not really us within the mask, it is more like a disguise to conceal the true nature of the individual.
In some cases, people can identify too strongly with it, and they might believe that they are the mask they carry.

I just had to use this lovely dress that just screams Jane Austen and her beloved character, Elizabeth Bennet.

- Keefer Lake, Ontario, Canada -
The Tamaracks are acknowledging the season in glorious colour now, our forests are dripping with gold. They have turned a bit later than usual - all the other trees have already dropped their leaves on the ground save for a stubborn few.
This particular Tamarack is in our backyard ... we transplanted it about 10 years ago and it is thriving in its new location. My American friends may know the tree by another name - the Eastern or Black Larch.
Six Aboriginal language groups are the traditional owners of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area:

Terrace Falls are located near Lawson and Hazelbrook, small towns approximately 90 kilometers (1.5 hour drive) from Sydney.
Falls are accessible by the short 800 meter walk from the bottom of Terrace Falls Road, or from the other side, Valley Road Hazelbrook. There are now gates on both sides to
stop the dickheads that either dump cars or rip up the unsealed fire trail
The walking track starts approximately half way between these two gated. There are two entry points along the track and it just depends from which Road you access it from.
The track itself is a beautiful example of temperate rainforest with many flowering native mountain plants, fungi, birds and sunning reptiles. Don't forget to look out for the colourful freshwater crustacean, locally known as the yabbie!!!
This walk has come rather rich and lush moss and lichens, not to mention the wonderful tree ferns!
Take your time and scamper up and down rocks, stop, listen and just chill to experience a true Blue Mountains experience!!! You might even get lucky as I did and witness the majestic Lyrebird.

"Haka is a ceremonial dance in Māori culture. It is often performed by a group, with vigorous movements and stamping of the feet with rhythmically shouted or chanted accompaniment. Although popularly associated with the traditional battle preparations of male warriors, haka have been traditionally performed by both men and women and for a variety of social functions within Māori culture. Haka are performed to welcome distinguished guests, or to acknowledge great achievements, occasions, or funerals."

Everglades Snail Kites are a highly endangered bird in Florida! They are now referred to as Snail Kites and get their name for the fact that they feed almost exclusively on Apple Snails! They are a victim of poor water management, including water quality, high water levels, extremely low water levels. The water that is of extremely poor quality is because of recycling of farm water!
We were luck enough to see these Snail Kites mating on one of our trips to STA 5 in the wonderful early morning light!! As always thanks for looking and we will see you on Thursday!!

Pitt Lake is the second-largest lake in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. About 53.5 square kilometres in area, it is about 25 km long and about 4.5 km wide at its widest. It is one of the world's relatively few tidal lakes, and among the largest. In Pitt Lake, there is on average a three foot tide range; thus Pitt Lake is separated from sea level and tidal waters during most hours of each day during the 15 foot tide cycle of the Pitt River and Strait of Georgia estuary immediately downstream.The lake's southern tip is 20 km upstream from The Pitt River confluence with the Fraser River and is 40 km east of Downtown Vancouver.
Pitt Lake is in a typical U-shaped glacial valley in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains. The overdeepening of the lower end of the valley over the span of the Wisconsin glaciation created a trough over 140 m below current sea level. After initial glacial retreat at around 13,000 years ago a saltwater fjord occupied this basin when relative sea levels were still ca 120 to 140m above current levels in the region. Unlike neighbouring Indian Arm and Howe Sound farther west, this fjord basin became partly cut off from tidal waters by sedimentation of the lower Fraser River ca 10,500 years ago, and Pitt Lake is now considered a tidal fjord lake.
Pitt Lake is the second largest of a series of north-south oriented fjord-lakes incising the southern slopes of the Pacific Ranges, the largest being Harrison Lake located 60 km to the east. The other fjord-lakes include Coquitlam Lake, Alouette Lake, Stave Lake, and Chehalis Lake.
The Pitt River drains into the northern end of Pitt Lake. The western shore of Pitt Lake are protected within Pinecone Burke Provincial Park, while most of the eastern shore are protected within Golden Ears Provincial Park. The southern end of Pitt Lake features an extensive marshland called Pitt Polder. While most of this marshland has since been drained for agricultural use, the northernmost portion is strictly protected in order to provide critical habitat for migratory birds.
Communities
The community of Pitt Meadows and the First Nations reserve of Pitt Lake Indian Reserve 5 are located at the southern end of the lake. Just southwest of the lake is the community of Port Coquitlam, which is across the Pitt River from Pitt Meadows. At the north end of the lake is a locality named Alvin, which is a transport and shipping point for logging companies and their employees.

Wisteria in full bloom ( my garden )
A climbing vine in the pea family, with delicate hanging clusters of beautiful, pale bluish-lilac flowers that emit a heavenly scent. Native to North America and eastern Asia, ornamental varieties are widely grown on walls and pergolas.
Flora records indicate wisteria has been known to live up to 100 years and even older (there is a 1200 year old wisteria tree in Japan). It's long-life bestows the symbolic meaning of immortality and longevity to the wisteria.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him He will direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Birkenhead Park is a major public park located in the centre of Birkenhead, Merseyside, England. It was designed by Joseph Paxton and opened on 5 April 1847. It is generally acknowledged as the first publicly funded civic park in the world..............
The intelligence of Crows is well-acknowledged. I have often observed a "murder" of crows seemingly working cooperatively. It often seems that one or more of them acts as a sentinel, loudly proclaiming when a potential danger is near (like mistakenly taking me as danger when I raise my camera). As the crow "caws" loudly, other crows nearby in the trees respond. Those on the ground feeding then take flight. Maybe I am reading too much into this observation, but it has happened often.
The atmosphere and reflections blended well in this peaceful and calming, Pitt River scene.
Being a tidal river, I was lucky to catch this still moment.

Well over a hundred years ago, this would have been a busy fishing port.
Today, we can only imagine the sights of the heavily loaded fishing vessels tied up alongside this pier, and the hardworking employees bustling the catch of the day, up and down the pier.

Point Roberts is a pene-exclave of the United States on the southernmost tip of the Tsawwassen Peninsula, south of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The area, which had a population of 1,314 at the 2010 census, is reached by land by traveling 25 mi (40 km) through Canada. It is a census-designated place (CDP) in Whatcom County, Washington with a post office, and a ZIP Code of 98281. Direct sea and air connections with the U.S. are available across Boundary Bay.
Point Roberts was created when the United Kingdom and the United States settled the Pacific Northwest American-Canadian border dispute in the mid-19th century with the Oregon Treaty. Both parties agreed the 49th parallel would delineate both countries' territories, but they overlooked the small area that incorporates Point Roberts (south of the 49th parallel). Questions about ceding the territory to the United Kingdom and later to Canada have been raised since its creation but its status has remained unchanged.

Peace in dry country
stone, water, and memory
rest in quiet green
Yes, that was my attempt at haiku. This is a blast from the past of the Cowra Japanese Garden.
I’m doing yet another round of culling my photography archives — the third deep dive in as many years (clearly a slow process). I first posted a version of this shot back when I’d just picked up a camera and joined Flickr. Also when I was overenthusiastically experimenting with that classic fake HDR look. This is a refreshed take with a lighter hand on the sliders, still a combination of 3 bracketed exposures.
The gardens are located in the town of Cowra in the Central West region of NSW, Australia. The gardens were created to honour the historical and ongoing relationship between the people of Cowra and Japan — and the story behind it is surprisingly moving.
In 1960, the Japanese government decided to bring the remains of their war dead from around Australia to be reburied in Cowra, which already housed a cemetery for 231 Japanese soldiers killed during the 1944 Cowra breakout - a dramatic and tragic chapter involving a nearby prisoner-of-war camp. After the war, the Cowra RSL took on the respectful maintenance of the cemetery, which was formally ceded to Japan in 1963. In 1971, Cowra Tourism proposed the idea of a Japanese garden to acknowledge this connection, and Japan agreed to support it, as a gesture of appreciation for the town’s care of their fallen soldiers. It’s a nice outcome I think, for something rooted in war - a story worth reading if you’re into history.
The gardens themselves are a little pocket of Japan tucked into the dry, sunburnt hills of inland NSW. Think: manicured hedges, waterfalls, rocky slopes, peaceful lakes, and the occasional waterbird. There’s also a traditional Edo cottage, an open-air tea house (& you can get Japanese sweets), and a bonsai house (I've always loved Bonsai, don't have the patience to grow one though).
Hard to believe this peaceful garden is in regional NSW - we’re hoping to explore the real thing in Japan next year.
Have a great week out there. Thanks for any comments and likes, they are all appreciated!

They help out wherever possible, give input and advice when needed, and try their best to constantly be active in both our discord and inworld. Both of you are so appreciated, I am so happy i've gotten to know you both better, and I'm not surprised in the slightest that you both were chosen as this month's roleplayers of the month!

Understanding and acknowledging its existence is the pathway to Light
Remaining in Ignorance enables it
It is dark, it is ugly – it is vile
It is the devil’s playground
It is seductive
Only through shining a light on its existence . . .
Can humanity and our earth heal
Humanity is on the precipice
Let’s pray - Amen
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
–Isaiah 5:20
A PRAYER TO DEFEAT THE WORK OF SATAN
O Divine Eternal Father, in union with your Divine Son and the Holy Spirit, and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg You to destroy the Power of your greatest enemy – the evil spirits. Cast them into the deepest recesses of hell and chain them there forever!
Take possession of your Kingdom which You have created and which is rightfully yours. Heavenly Father, give us the reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I repeat this prayer out of pure love for You with every beat of my heart and with every breath I take.
Amen.
I like how the sun lights up the keys here on the Manitoba Maple. Taken from the sidewalk.
I want to let you know that I appreciate your visit to my space here on Flickr as well as your comments and likes. Although I don't get to acknowledge them right away, rest assured I do read them all.
When we acknowledge that daylight is passing and sunset arrives in the truest of beauty a sense of peace overtakes us. The day was long and now we welcome a good nights rest in preparation for a new day. Gratitude and Kindness were a part of today and will be part of tomorrow’s sunrise.
Acknowledge what was.
Make peace with what has been.
Feel the cycle and the flow of the universe.
One deep breath in to hold.
Listen to your heartbeat.
Listen to your soul.
Exhale and release.

Lavenham in Suffolk is widely acknowledged as the best example of a medieval wool town in England.
In Tudor times, Lavenham was said to be the fourteenth wealthiest town in England, despite its small size. Its fine timber-framed buildings and beautiful church, built on the success of the wool trade, make it a fascinating place to explore today.
Although Lavenham goes back to Saxon times, it is best known as a medieval wool town. It was granted its market charter in 1257 and started exporting its famous blue broadcloth as far afield as Russia.
In the 14th century Edward III encouraged the English weaving industry and Lavenham began to prosper. However in the late 16th century Dutch refugees in Colchester began weaving a lighter, cheaper and more fashionable cloth and the woollen trade in Lavenham began to fail.
Most of the buildings in Lavenham today date from the 15th century, many of these were never altered due to the fall of the weaving industry. Consequently the town is still very much on the same scale as it must have been in the 15th century.
