Sometimes we’ll sigh - sometimes we’ll cry
and we’ll know why just you and I know true love ways
Throughout the days our true love ways
will bring us joys to share with those who really care
I wait in anticipation
For the morning tide to come.
The gulls crying,
and the waves splashing,
Remind me that it was time to
pull in the nets.
Another day of fishing it is,
Another day of hoping more fish would be caught,
This is my livelihood,
A fisherman's wage I have,
and I wait for my next catch,
To feed my family.
It is this life I have,
Living it day to day,
Not knowing if I will bring in,
a fair catch to warrant a good pay.
I would not choose any other life,
For I love the sea and I love the waves,
A fisherman am I,
Nothing more and nothing less.

Long tail boats parked and retired for the evening. Shooting in the late evening really brings out the blues...

We were strangers
Starting out on a journey
Never dreaming
What we'd have to go through
Now here we are
And I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
It's getting to be very slim pickings for the remaining Monarchs. Frost, freezing temperatures, rain, gusty wind, lack of sunlight...and almost no flowers remaining to enjoy.
And yet they still manage to thrive. I presume that soon the last of these butterflies will head South.

Just cast an eye
In her direction.
Oh me oh my,
Ain't that perfection?
Oh I repeat
Well don't you think that's kind of neat?
Yes I ask you very confidentially:
Ain't she sweet?

The flowers of Aphrodite, goddess of love and symbol of Athens.
Oh what a heavenly scent but you will find after a few seconds of scenting it you will lose the fragrance until you approach the flower again for another sniff. This is because the flower contains ionine which dulls the sense of smell for a short while. For this reason the flowers were strewn on floors of damp buildings in the past to mask the musty smell.
The flowers can also be used to test for acidity. An acid turns them red and alkalies turn them green.
Whilst grateful for single invites PLEASE, PLEASE< PLEASE, I really DO NOT WANT MULTIPLE ones. PLEASE no graphics, spinning or flashing comments. They stress my eyes.
Dedicated to all my flickr friends and visitors...have a great weekend...

I feel really privileged to be able to take this picture at Horsey Gap, this pup was on the dunes, all the rest of the pups were on the Beach.
There was a roped off pathway along the Dunes to keep you off the Beach, the path way had been diverted around this pup and I was only about 10 feet away from it.

Walking bridge just north of hwy 41 in Gurnee,IL. I thought It looks like a scene you would see painted. All rights reserved. Do not use for any reason without my permission.
I also have a textured version of this shot but I liked it without texture too so I've posted both. For this version I cloned out some distracting elements and adjusted the light/color slightly.
Plum Island, MA. After heavy crop.
Okay, here's story. The snowy owl was standing in the marsh about 150 feet away from me. It was so far that my 400mm f5.6 lens was way too short. Then I had to attach on 1.4x converter for reach but lost autofocus as the result. While I was shooting using live view and manual focus, the snowy took off and flew towards me!! Without auto focus, I could only take several shots (including this one) and watching. The snowy came to only 10 feet away from me, picked up something on the ground and flew away.
That was the point when I made up my mind to buy a 500mm f4 lens. :)
