Red Legged Partridge - Alectoris Rufa aka French Partridge
The red-legged partridge (Alectoris rufa) is a gamebird in the pheasant family.
It is sometimes known as French partridge, to distinguish it from the English or grey partridge.
This partridge breeds naturally in southwestern Europe (France, Iberia and northwest Italy). It has become naturalised in flat areas of England and Wales, where it was introduced as a game species, and has been seen breeding as far north as Cumbria and eastern Yorkshire and the western Isle of Man. It is replaced in southeastern Europe by the very similar rock partridge (Alectoris graeca). It is a non-migratory terrestrial species, which forms flocks outside the breeding season.
This species breeds on dry lowlands, such as farmland and open stony areas, laying its eggs in a ground nest.
The natural range of the red-legged partridge is France, Spain and Portugal. However, it was introduced from France to Great Britain in the 18th century, and has since become an important gamebird there. As it is a mediterranean species, it thrives in hot, dry areas with sandy soil. The ability to breed two clutches simultaneously has led to it being extensively reared in captivity, and released for shooting. The breeding of chukars (Alectoris chukar) and red-legged/chukar hybrids is prohibited, due to its impact on wild populations of red-legs. The red-legged partridge is believed to be in decline across its range.

The Waxing Gibbous on August 10 has an illumination of 96%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On August 10 the Moon is 12.96 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases. Moongiant

It's become almost a tradition: on the last weekend before Christmas, the quaysides of the Hoge and Lage der A are filled with charter ships during the atmospheric WinterWelvaart event. With their century old warehouses and stately buildings, the Der A's are among the loveliest spots in the city at any time ...
For me this is the only criterion for a beautiful photograph :-)

Crowded house at Great Ocean Road (Australia) of limestone stacks, a couple being 2 of the 12 Apostles and the rest, rugged cliffs. In time, the rugged cliffs will become severely eroded by the ocean and what remains will become stacks, as the other stacks (to the left in the picture) dissolve and disappear; well demonstrating the never-ending and cyclic processes of nature.

Each intersection or encounter will become easier....
Right choices support a fairly good and balanced life
Wrong choices bring much troubles and strife.
There will be bumps and crossroads on the way.....
Life will flow in harmony when you make the right start
but you will face them with a strong mind and a fierce heart.

“Delicate fingers
Reach for me,
Eagerly
Awaiting
My embrace.
I'll hold you
Night and day,
Giving you and
Only you my
Fragile heart.
You and I become
One--our bodies
United in love.”

Transcript – “I AM ME” Official Music Video – Fearless Soul
I AM ME.
I’ll never pretend to be another.
I will never want to BE another.
I will not change who I am just to fit in.
I AM ME.
I am not perfect… but I’m working on myself… working to become the best version of myself.
I’m not putting on a mask no more
The true me can’t stay hidden
I’m not putting on a show no more
I’m not gonna act to fit in
Yeah I might not be perfect
but I’m working on my best version
I’m on my way
Yes I’m on my way
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
Yes I am
I am me
I’m not putting on a mask no more
I’ve got my own life to live
There’s so much more I can give
I walk my own path
I won’t pretend to be another
Never want to be another
Won’t apologize for being me
That’s all I can be.
Yeah I might not be perfect
But I’m working on my best version
I’m on my way
Yeah I’m on my way
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
Yeah I might not be perfect
But I’m working on my best version!
I’m on my way.
I’m on my way!
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in? I won’t.
I am me
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
in my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me
Yes I am
Yes I am me

A simple puddle of water used by cattle to drink from when they are grazing has become one of the main attractions for photographers in the Dolomites.
How lucky I have become?
My travels now define me, the thoughts of where I've been put a smile on my face...
The thought of a future trip brings out the child in me, so excited and giddy.
this photo makes me laugh^^^
As I remember it;
I had just got into Yellowstone, National Park, this lake was on my left hand side, I pulled over into a turn off,
grabbed my gear and headed down to the shore.
I found out I was at Lewis lake (fyi)...,
Setting up at sunrise It was a little cold, off in the distance as I snapped the shutter a crow kept jawing away at me... he was not happy i was there.
I kept laughing at how much noise this bird made.
End result this photo.
So this is a bit different for me but I wanted to play around with the darker side of Second Life and Alia had this cool skin to pair with Naminoke's spider set.... so my attempt at going dark. Be Kind. :P....

Protea is both the botanical name and the English common name of a genus of South African flowering plants, sometimes also called sugarbushes or fynbos. The family is Proteaceae. In local tradition, the protea flower represents change and hope. The extraordinary richness and diversity of species characteristic of the Cape flora are thought to be caused in part by the diverse landscape, where populations can become isolated from each other and in time develop into separate species. The main vectors responsible for the transfer of pollen in protea cultivation are birds, insects, and wind. Some Protea species exhibit both self-pollination and cross-pollination as a method of reproduction. Cross-pollination is preferred, though, as a method of reproduction because it provides genetic diversity in the population. When cultivating proteas, breeders use hand pollination as a controlled method to transfer pollen from one flower to another. Proteas usually flower during spring. The general structure of their flower heads consists of a mass of flowers on a woody receptacle. The ovary is protected by the receptacle, thus is not seen when looking at the flower, but the anthers are present at the top of the flower, which can then easily transfer the pollen to the vectors. 11113
This bird has two distinctive subspecies: T. m. maximus which lives on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the North and South America. The royal tern has a red-orange bill and a black cap during the breeding season, but in the winter the cap becomes patchy. The royal tern is found in Europe, the Americas, and the Caribbean islands. The royal tern lives on the coast and is only found near salt water. They tend to feed near the shore, close to the beach or in backwater bays. The royal tern's conservation status is listed as of least concern.

The reason for the name ‘Cathedral Grove’ becomes immediately obvious only a few minutes into visiting. Soaring towards the sky, these huge trees form their own beautiful cathedral of nature.
Featuring a magnificent temperate rainforest with enormous 800 year old trees, a carpet of ferns and draping moss, Cathedral Grove is an essential stop on any Vancouver Island road trip.
Officially known as MacMillan Provincial Park, the trees in Cathedral Grove are amongst the oldest and tallest in Canada.
It’s a humbling experience to stand next to these incredibly tall and gnarled tree trunks, some as wide as a car. The tree canopy is up to 80 metres high in places, with the sky a distant proposition. As you walk through the forest, beams of sunlight filter through the branches above, illuminating so many layers of green.

Normally I'm here to show you Croydon car parks but here's one from another part of London, in Stratford, in East London, to be precise. For someone that likes to shoot architecture car parks are always an interesting challenge. They are usually very symmetrical with distinguishable lines and shapes. There's always likely to be an abundance of light and shadow because car parks are likely to not be fully enclosed, leaving room for lots of contrasts in tone and light. If I go past a car park I always look for a composition of some kind.
I've subtitled this 'when day becomes night' because this image was a post processing challenge that I set myself. This shot was actually taken in the middle of the day, at 1pm to be exact. I wanted to see if I could make it appear as if was taken at 1am instead.

We become what we behold and only to shape our tools and then from our tools to shape us, and then, we find the majesty is a thing of beauty to behold and not lose!

THANKS, I know this is pretty different but some how I like it and hope you do too.
Why is it I always have ideas/stories related to my pictures but then it becomes impossible to write them down?
At school I was pretty good at writing, I even won some prizes! It's only been in the last few years, I've stopped writing, you know... we are always so busy/stressed/tired *rolls her eyes*
And it's frustrating, all those thoughts, feelings, ideas, dreams bottled up, even the thought process behind my decors and pictures, I shall make it a New Year Resolution along with the gym, new job, getting in touch with old friends, more sleep... and less screen time to read and write more, easy... isn't it?!
Yes, there was an idea behind this scene... Christmas Day is far gone, but in Spain, most of the kids, and adults are still looking forward "The Epiphany", or as we call it Día de Reyes (the Three Wise Men); so here some presents had been left to be opened the 6th of January in the morning.
I just wanted to recreate a very early morning, with kids excited around the Christmas tree opening their presents, as the parents smile at their joy and happiness while having breakfast sitting on the livingroom's floor <3

hand bags and glad rags by Rod Stewart
"Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
And drink a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake them all in a pie
They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you"
