Always love this time of year for seeing spiders at their most best like this beauty here. Its also this time of year for the usual rubbish from the press going on about killer spiders moving into our homes with the False Widow spider getting the most stick. On average in the UK between 2 and 9 people will die as a result from a allergic reaction to a bee and a wasp sting and yet not one person has died from a False Willow Spider. You can get a reaction from the spiders bite but you can get a lot worse from other animals and plants too.
Sorry If have not returned all of your faves and comments as I had a problem with no notification emails from Flickr but has now been fixed and put right now.
Always a great walk with fine views. I have three walks which takes me along this coastline. The shortest is about 5 miles the medium walk is in the region of 9 miles and the longest is about 15 + miles.
Here's another one from my daytime photo folder. Not as dramatic as most of posts but I need to mix it up a little every once in a while.
I took this one on my way to Gooseneck State Park, Utah. I have passed this spot 4 times and decided that I should make time for a revisit before some boy scout troop tips this thing over, Hehe. I had this amazing compulsion to want to climb up this thing and push it on over, so I can image what a group of drunk teens or some Ill managed boy scout troop could do once mob rules takes over. :)
Luckily there were some nice clouds drifting around this time. The last three times by here, the dreaded blank skies made for some uninteresting scenery.
Located between Monument Valley and the city of Bluff, in San Juan County Utah, The name "Mexican Hat" comes from this curiously sombrero-shaped, 60-foot wide by 12-foot thick, rock outcropping on the northeast edge of town. The "Hat"' has two rock climbing routes ascending to it's top.
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 Wednesday ahead!! :)
If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.
Understand and enjoy the fact that photography is a unique medium. Respect and work within photography’s limitations, you will go much further.

Kind hearts are the gardens,
Kind thoughts are the roots,
Kind words are the flowers,
Kind deeds are the fruits.
Take care of your garden
And keep out the weeds,
Fill it with sunshine
Kind words and kind deeds.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
Mark Twain
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Les chevaux n'ont rien à faire dans un cirque, ni aucun autre animal, d'ailleurs. Mais il y a toujours une exception qui confirme la règle.
Le cirque Knie a bâti sa réputation sur ses chevaux, en grande partie. Lipizzans, Frisons, Andalous, etc, la famille Knie a toujours vécu avant tout pour les chevaux et je suis obligée de reconnaître que leurs chevaux sont magnifiques et fort bien traités.
I don't like to see horses and any other animal performing in a circus. It's not the place of this wonderful animal. But I'm obliged to admit that the Knie's circus has always had beautiful horses which are very well treated !
always try to be a little kinder than is necessary? :-)

Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind
And bend it to your will
Even though it's hard to know
Just how the story ends
The road is long and it takes it's time

Thanks for stopping by, everything is always very appreciated
Always said I would know where to find love
Always thought I'd be ready and strong enough
But sometimes I just felt I could give up
But you came and you changed my whole world now
I'm somewhere I've never been before
Now I see
What love means
It's so unbelievable
And I don't wanna let it go
Its something so beautiful
Flowin down like a waterfall
I feel like you've always been
Forever a part of me
And it's so unbelievable
To finally be in love
Somewhere I never thought I'd be
In my heart in my head it's so clear now
hold my hand you've got nothin' to fear now
I was lost and you've rescued me somehow
I'm alive I'm in love you complete me
And I've never been here before
Now I see
What love means
When I think of what I have
And this chance I nearly lost
I can't help but break down and cry
oooh yeah break down and cr
This fringed double tulip is a standout in our garden.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

MOUNTAIN SNAIL 😇. Nature always manages to amaze me, even in its humblest and most daily manifestations. Surroundings of Portacomaro, Piedmont, ITALY.
The first year we went to Etosha we spent a month there becoming familiar with it's incredible beauty. In that month we only saw the lilac breasted roller twice . It was difficult to find and there just were not many but over the past eight years we have seen them numerous times and this year they were in abundance. I love them and found it very hard to pass one by . As a result of this I have several images this year. Each is a little different . The first year we never saw clouds but this year there were clouds every day. You can seen them in this image of the roller.
Wishing you a lovely and blessed evening. Many thanks to you all for your great support and encouraging comments !!

Schleiereule (Tyto alba) - White barn owl
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schleiereule
Die Schleiereule (Tyto alba) ist eine Vogelart aus der Ordnung der Eulen (Strigiformes) und der Familie der Schleiereulen (Tytonidae). Die Schleiereule ist eine sehr helle, langbeinige Eule, die keine Federohren aufweist. Zu ihren auffälligsten Erkennungsmerkmalen gehören das herzförmige Gesicht sowie die verhältnismäßig kleinen, schwarzen Augen. Sie ist nachtaktiv und am Tage nur an ihren Ruheplätzen sowie am Brutplatz zu beobachten.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barn_owl
The barn owl (Tyto alba) is the most widely distributed species of owl and one of the most widespread of all birds. It is also referred to as the common barn owl, to distinguish it from other species in its family, Tytonidae, which forms one of the two main lineages of living owls, the other being the typical owls (Strigidae). The barn owl is found almost everywhere in the world except polar and desert regions, in Asia north of the Himalaya, most of Indonesia, and some Pacific islands.[2]
your light extends you
even when swallowed by clouds
you offer them colour
the moon here was a bit wobbly, 8 seconds was too long for my gear and the wind....so this is a composite with a clearer crescent from not long after :-)
here's to light that travels...
