A shot over the 6 foot high garden wall to a rose growing by the footpath . It grows wild and throws up blooms like this with no attention whatsoever , other than an odd prune and it's strays over the footpath . Now it must be a good ten foot tall .
♂ Black Redstart / Hausrotschwanz (Phoenicurus ochruros)
One of the most striking songs of the common garden birds. Outside of the higher pitched tweeting, they can also be heard sounding like an engine running!
Woke up today to frozen water meter in Colorado and morning temperatures in the single digits, so I felt it nice to work on images from a warm sunset on SoCal beaches.
I took this image over five years ago when I lived in San Diego. I loved living there and the friends I was surrounded by, but the lifestyle and the costs began to make less sense as I moved deeper into my retired professional life.
Now, living in rural Southwest Colorado, I enjoy time with my wife and dogs, I've met new friends and neighbors, I can spend as much time exploring nature as I choose, and not have to endure traffic or congestion, nor be hundreds of people deep in every place I want to go. Today was cold; but not horribly so. The lack of water slowed the day's start, but, did not grind my spirit to a halt. I was warmed by my immediate surroundings in our log home, a hot fire, a hotter wife, and some loving animals to keep my heart buoyed. So, here is an image that takes the cool blue tones of post-sunset and merges them with the remaining warm light of the evening, as an homage to how life can be both warm and cool, but always worthwhile.
Congrats on Explore!
