As I stood and watched the mists
slowly rising this morning I
wondered what view was more
beautiful that this.
by Harold "Hal" Glen Borland
I drive by this river each morning. No matter the season, its beauty beckons me to stop and capture that day’s memory. You may recognize this river in one of my other images at a different time of the year.
The beautiful texture I used on this image is by Evelyn Flint entitled “Old Brown Paper”.

As you drive through small towns, you might see a neglected, abandoned old home like this one. Maybe you wonder who once lived there and what became of them. How many children played in the yard and did they return to visit “the folks”? Is there a favorite dog buried under the tree? Then you get back on the highway and the old place is forgotten. Again.
As always, many thanks for taking the time to view, fave and comment. That's very much appreciated
Stay safe
As the seasons change, some low-lying clouds remind me that stormy days are ahead. But for now, I enjoy the September colors at the end of the day.

As you may have guessed, I stayed on the Salar to enjoy the sunset too. The difference with sunrise is that more tourists watch the sunset than the sunrise; not everyone is an early riser. But it was worth it I think.
I remember deciding to try this on on the spur of the moment one night, as it had hung in my wardrobe for months with the tags still on. I didn't really think much of it at the time...
As the weather turns warmer, the troop decided to do a seafood grill out on the water. Perhaps not surprising, I decided to tease Adi with my freshly caught lobsters. Andie, on the other hand, was well impressed by Pengu's wet slippery thing in his hands.
Pengy decided here to be the chef o'day - watching over the paella on the grill.

As the Vulture flew off folks so do the Hawk, but as I watched him go, all he did was feel safe enough to make a small circle and return to the same perch, just lucky I did not move and hung in there.
Thank you all.

As the August evenings and nights darken, the Northern Lights are visible again. I stood by the lake waiting for them. And they came, not dancing like in winter, but in a calm, beautiful arch, staying in place for over an hour. An orange crescent moon also rose into the sky. All the colors of the sky were reflected on the surface of the calm lake. Otherwise it was very quiet. I will keep this memory in my heart.

"Free As A Bird"
Free as a bird
It's the next best thing to be
Free as a bird
Home, home and dry
Like a homing bird I'll fly
As a bird on wings
Whatever happened to
The life that we once knew?
Can we really live without each other?
Where did we lose the touch
That seemed to mean so much?
It always made me feel so...
Free as a bird
Like the next best thing to be
Free as a bird
Home, home and dry
Like a homing bird I'll fly
As a bird on wings
Whatever happened to
The life that we once knew?
Always made me feel so free
Ah...
Ah...
Ah...
Free as a bird
It's the next best thing to be
Free as a bird
Free as a bird
Free as a bird
Oooooo
Free...

,,, as beautiful as this field was – at this evening there were not only me as living beings, but also terribly many insects ... and most of the species mosquito ;-( /
So schön dieses Feld auch war – in dieser Abendstunde gab es nicht nur mich als Lebewesen, sondern auch fürchterlich viele Insekten ... und von der Spezies Stechmücke am meisten ;-(
As usual, this morning it was just beautiful in the valley, for me the "Eifel-Tuscany".
Heute Morgen war es wie so oft einfach nur zauberhaft schön im Tal, für mich die "Eifel-Toskana".
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

Also known as a Grizzly. This healthy boar was seen and admired in the Tetons with good friends Debbie Tubridy, Jen Hall and Rodney Lange.
"Meriwether Lewis and William Clark first described it as grisley, which could be interpreted as either "grizzly" (i.e., "grizzled"—that is, with golden and grey tips of the hair) or "grisly" ("fear-inspiring", now usually "gruesome"). The modern spelling supposes the former meaning; even so, naturalist George Ord formally classified it in 1815 as U. horribilis, not for its hair, but for its character.
Occasionally a huge male grizzly has been recorded, whose size greatly exceeds ordinary, with weights reported up to 680 kg (1,500 lb). A large coastal male of this size may stand up to 3 metres (9.8 ft) tall on its hind legs and be up to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) at the shoulder.
A grizzly bear can also be identified by its rump, which is lower than its shoulders; a black bear's rump is higher than its shoulders. A grizzly bear's front claws measure about 2–4 inches in length; a black bear's claws measure about 1–2 inches in length." Wikipedia
Was a treat to safely enjoy the scavenging, digging and hunting for more food before his time to hibernate.
Have a wonderful weekend!
As Neowise started to head for the horizon at about midnight, The Big Dipper took over in the dark sky above. This was taken with the Pitstone Windmill in Buckinghamshire, England in the foreground. The mill is owned by The National Trust and dates back to the 17th century. This gem in the Chiltern countryside is the oldest dated windmill in Britain.

As the Spring thaw commences fragments of river ice are carried by strong currents and deposited along shorelines.
Here translucent ice fragments scatter the light of a fast setting sun and glow like gems.

As I walked up Dengemarsh track I noticed this beautifully marked Marsh Harrier skirting the gravel pit . I waited hidden by a sallow bush and as luck was on my side he flew right by me .
As we came around the marina entrance, suddenly, we were surrounded by about 40 tiny sailing dinghies... the conditions were hard to row, very choppy and strong wind... fortunately the elite sailors and our cox were all competent... no harm occurred. It was very exciting to row surrounded by 40 little sailing boats.
