Rocky ridge hidden in the forest shows its teeth. And makes a nice scenery with all that spring fresh green. A bit of a moss, a bit of a trees, a bit of a rock.
Life's a long, long road, if we are lucky. For so long I've just followed the road, it seems with one wheel stuck in a rut at the side steering me along without me being in control. And it has gone on and on. There's a crossroads further down in the picture, in the middle of nowhere. No signs. No landmarks. Just an empty crossroads where two roads meet on the barren moorland. I'm getting near there. Do I carry on straight or turn, left or right, and explore a bit to the side...perhaps it was a waste of time, the wrong choice....nothing to see down there, and return to the junction.
I'm almost at that point, decisions, decisions in deciding if I leave so much of what I've known, work, Cheshire and the hills around, friends, goats, North Wales and take a change in direction.
We've found a place. A long way north. Seven hours drive north to Acharacle, Argyllshire at the far end of Loch Shiel. Mountains, lochs, deer, little beaches with white sand, heather...........
I've seen recently how hard it is to leave everything you've known and strike out somewhere else when my son took his young family off to New Zealand. They'd said they never could have anticipated how difficult it would be to say "Goodbye". My turn soon.
Whilst horse riding through Thingvellir national park in Iceland we reached a point on the trail where the horses can stop to have a drink before crossing this ice cold river! With the air temperature around -5 celsius it shows how well adapted these horses really are!

ENG: In my smartphone memory is now a bit longer a small picture series with 7 photos of the newest subway station of Berlin. The speech is here from the subway station Museum Island (Museumsinsel).
The "Museuminsel" subway station is one of three of the newest subway stations in Berlin's Mitte district of the same name. It is part of the extension of the U5 underground line from Hönow deep in the east of the city beyond Alexanderplatz to Brandenburg Gate and on to the terminus at Hauptbahnhof. Construction had its groundbreaking ceremony in 2010 and it was ceremonially opened in mid-2021. The mega highlight here is the integrated starry sky. The other two new stations are also already in operation and bear the names "Rotes Rathaus" and "Unter den Linden".

GER: In meinem Smartphone Speicher liegt jetzt schon etwas länger eine kleine Bilder Serie mit 7 Fotos vom neusten U-Bahnhof Berlins. Die Rede ist hier vom U-Bahnhof Museumsinsel.
Der U-Bahnhof „Museumsinsel“ ist einer von drei der neusten U-Bahnhöfe im Berliner Ortsteil Mitte des gleichnamigen Bezirks. Er ist Teil der Verlängerung der U-Bahn-Linie U5 von Hönow tief im Osten der Stadt über den Alexanderplatz hinaus zum Brandenburger Tor bis zur Endstation Hauptbahnhof. Der Bau hatte seinen ersten Spatenstich 2010 und er wurde Mitte 2021 feierlich eröffnet. Das mega Highlight ist hier der integrierte Sternenhimmel. Die anderen zwei neuen Bahnhöfe sind ebenfalls schon in Betrieb und tragen die Namen „Rotes Rathaus“ sowie „Unter den Linden“.
A Little Bit of Happiness.
Eastern Bluebird in my yard Chester County, PA on 4/3/2020.
I watched this male Bluebird carefully inspect the inside and outside of a new nesting box that I had put up, but failed to pursue his mate to even look at it, so I doubt that they will be using the nesting box this year.

a bit of a different pov than what I usually do. But I couldn't pass this shot. I really liked the lighting and the different texture highlights that came off the cliff face. thanks for viewing
A peacock Butterfly on Scabious a fairly common wild flower in damp grasslands, Its is commonly known as the Devils Bit.
Went a bit overboard here but I like it. I never make any claim my images are real and its very obvious it's not. This is what I do and people like it, I'm not a professional or claim to be a leading photographer but I like what I do and 95% of people like an image for what it is. Photography can become art or digital art............

“Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.”
Bit of a Wader day at Titchwell & Thornham on Sunday which is always a bit of a treat for us land locked Bedfordshire birders :-)
Does the little bit on the end of this shell look like a little shell eye to you too?
I like to think that there is a whole little world inside with little shell creatures looking at live feeds from the "eye" on little TV screens, analysing response tactics to the environment on their little shell computers, initiating their outer shell of silence until any potential danger has passed, and then cheering and jumping about and giving each other little shell creature high-fives. That little hole in the spirals under the eye is their emergency escape hatch I reckon. In an emergency, the ConchChime goes off and they throw a little shell creature ladder out the hole and make their escape while whatever they are escaping from is busy at the main entrance. There may have been a little hero shell creature stay behind to distract whoever they were escaping from, maybe named the Coral Crusader. I hope he/she made it out safely! Must be a tough life being a little shell creature, I'm exhausted just thinking about it!
PS - I like shells, but then again, who doesn't!
A bit of a reimagining of a previous post. It occurs to me that this looks a lot like the graphic everyone uses for the Corona virus.... sorry about that!
Rest assured that I used masks in Photoshop...
