We had a heat wave in the past several days. It is bad not only the heat (98F), but also the humidity (85%) .

Sometimes a breakdown can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a trauma that prepares you for a future of radical transformation. Cherrie Moraga

 

*happy bokeh wednesday*

Thank you for viewing, comments and favors.

There are certain times in our lives when there is a breakthrough moment that changes the direction of our Lives..... My breakthrough moment was over Fifty years ago when became a Christian......

Belter morning at St Mary's today, this was my last shot of the day, I normally pack up when sun pops through, not sure I like this one, will post some others later

Marina Bay is a bay located in the Central Area of Singapore surrounded by the perimeter of four other planning areas, the Downtown Core, Marina East, Marina South and Straits View. The area surrounding the bay itself, also called Marina Bay, is a 360 hectare extension to the adjacent Central Business District.

The wait is over! The “curse” is broken!

 

Flickr friends, as many of you know, I’m a huge Chicago Cubs fan, even though I no longer live in the Chicago area. And I’m happy to report that the Chicago Cubs major league baseball team ended 108 years of frustration for their long-suffering fans on Wednesday night with an 8-7 extra-inning victory over the Cleveland Indians in the deciding Game 7 of the 2016 World Series.

 

The win broke the longest championship drought of any major North American professional sports team. The Cubs' last World Series championship came in 1908. This photo was taken at an earlier game this year at Chicago's Wrigley Field, the Cubs' home ball park.

 

Congratulations to the World Champion Chicago Cubs and to all of their fans!

 

My first Sunrise in a while and it turned out decent at St Mary's Lighthouse

The sun finally breaks through over the Glendrynoch cottage on the Isle of Skye.

Just some art I made from my trip through Highway 2. I was experimenting with some long exposure layering. I hope you like it.

The waves find a gap in the sand dune producing multiple ripples as it breaks through.

On 22nd march I pulled a muscle in my back. Slowly the pain got worse and worse til Saturday when i was rushed to A&E due to agonising pain and put on a lot of morphine. since monday been at home on sticks barely able to do anything. This morning, something 'clicked' and I found I could move a little and this evening i could walk with one stick and so i went out with the camera, not to get anything special but just because I missed being with the camera so much.

 

So, I shot this sunset, nothing 'special' but to me it was a breakthrough as now I feel so much more optimistic and there is an end in sight to my pain (i hope!) so, though this isnt anything special, to me it means a lot

Umbria: sun breaking through heavy clouds....spectacular!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to MY BROTHER!

Thanks Roger for PP:

The Morning Sun trying its best on a Misty Morning ..

This is an unusual fence construction I saw at one of our campsites. The Virginia Creeper has found a crack to squeeze through so it could be in front of the fence. You don’t notice the crack it is coming through but if you check the chain link section, you will see it seems to tuck away into the metal slats, too. Someone really wanted to keep something out. This plant was determined to breakthrough. Where there is a will, there is a way. Happy Fence Friday.

Finally, a little sun on a cold winter's day! HSS Everyone!

The forest at the end of ... the forest

Butterbox, with the fog lifting and cloud cover breaking up. Beams of sunlight briefly lit up the cliffs as the clouds parted. Such a nice way to spend the morning : )

The sun breaks though the remnants of storm clouds....

As the one layer of clouds opens, a glimpse of the Tetons appears, layered in clouds

Created for Saturday Self-Challenge ~ Industry ~

 

I used two of my photos here - one of a sunrise and the other of the smoke belching out of the stack - I wanted to create the illusion of the fact that the sun can break through the junk that we cast off into the sky, and maybe, just maybe, one day nature will win its rightful place back here.

A splendid weekend to all of you!

Another one from yesterday morning.

out of flames,

destruction comes

life.

birth is inevitable.

birth anew

birth begun

birth born of love

not yours

not mine

not anyone's

but someone

everyone knows.

Heute möchte ich die Berlinreihe mal wieder mit einem Motiv aus unserer Reise durch Europa durchbrechen ;) Das Bild entstand auf einem kleinen Berg in der Provence. Durch das Tal zog sich Nebel der bei Sonnenaufgang auch hoch zu mir auf den Berg kam. Die Sonne Strahlte mitten hindurch und so ergab sich dieses beeindruckende Bild.
