1st March 2016 - The 'Kathleen And May' moored up in the Canning Dock in front of the Albert Dock buildings in Liverpool.
What can be the reason behind flower favourites? (They fit your photographic style? Childhood memories? Fragrance? Perfect material in which to project your self?) These remain a favourite for me, Spring or Fall.
I can't stop allowing myself to go back to Smithville to capture this tree. I love to photograph it in all the seasons and one important thing I have learned is to never take it for granted. I had a very special tree in the Smithville Lake area that was taken down without notice and I regret not photographing it more. I guess this can apply to many things in life (family, friends, etc). So here I am, early in the morning mesmerized by the shape of the extended branches along the country fence line and the glow of the sky. I ended up blurring out the grass to give the sole focus on the this magnificent living specimen. I am just awed by the shapes here as if it were drawn on the page.
On a cold dark winter's night we can all dream of white sand, exotic seashells, and a perfect summer sky above. Imagination, and Photoshop too, can take us there 😊

Chinese Gardens at the Botanical Gardens are beautiful, full of colorful flowers, pavilions, ponds and waterfalls. Well worth a visit.
Rain pours down over a city
Night has fallen like a stone
Are you gone or are you with me?
In my heart I'll never know
If I close my eyes I'll see you
Hear your footsteps in the rain
In my dream I'll never find you
but I'll hear you call my name
As I tread through crowds of people
Trying to keep from looking back
Got your sense on something passing
And it sends me off my track
Do I find you will I follow
To forever and a day
I can feel you in the distance
But you seem so far away
What if I just can't find my way back home (ooh)
What about all the things I just don't don't know (ooh)
What if I just can't find my way back home (ooh)
Would you be there to show me where to go (ooh)
...smell it...
...feel it...
...see its colors...
...don't let it become stories to your grandsons....
22nd February 2016 - A shot of the sunset over Canning Dock in Liverpool. Unfortunately I left the iso at 2000 so had to lean heavily on the Luminescence slider in RAW converter. Still a nice shot I think...
Oh, they tryna shoot down angels
They tryna pull their wings off
So, they can't fly
And, oh, but she's so brave, though
Just like a tornado
She's taking us by storm
You can't stop the girl from going
You can't stop the world from knowing
The truth will set you free, oh
You can't stop the girl from going
You can't stop the world from knowing
The truth will set you free, oh
You can't stop the girl
They tryna take our voices
They tryna make our choices
So we scream loud, loud, loud
And, oh, I know you feel the lightnin'
And it's so excitin'
So, here we come
See him take off with one of our chocolate eggs?!
Yes we had snow again and it got cold.
Someone I visited last week gave me this cute little bike, she probably felt she had to after I said I liked it.....

This male Allen's Hummingbird shows off his impressive tongue. Hummingbirds have a forked tongue which is lined with hair-like extensions called lamellae. It can stick out its tongue as far as the length of its bill and can flick it in and out up to twelve times a second. Source: journeynorth.org
Paestum a major ancient Greek city on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea in Magna Graecia settled in 600-550 BC by the Dorians or by Greek Achaeans. Original Greek name of the city was Poseidonia after the Greek deity of the sea. Aug 2018
This is a very old glazed terracotta piece from China, likely to have been buried for some time in its past. I'm very fond of him.
Smile on Saturday: Sunset
Mount Canigó (Canigou in French) is our "sacred" mountain. Every year the summer solstice fire is light at the top of the mountain and brought back to the plain, where it then goes to towns in villages around Catalonia (both French and Spanish) and to other regions, including Belgium. It is a majestic, star-shaped mountain that overlooks the plain and the sea, and can be seen from virtually everywhere in the region (and even from Marseille, which is 300 km from here, thanks to an optical phenomenon... I'm telling you, it has magical powers!). You can never be used to its beauty, there is always a moment when you catch sight of it and your breath is taken away. It is particularly magnificent in winter, when it is covered in snow; the light of the rising sun paints it a soft pink, and sunsets become truly magical, wherever you watch them from.

This weekend my hiking trip took me a few kilometers up River Weser than my home area in and around the pittoreske town of Rinteln. Similar to the previous two weeks the weather was mild, nature was green and no sign of Winter. Rinteln, Lower Saxony, Germany
Today I went for a long walk in a nature reserve on the river Elbe.
Der entscheidende Vorteil an unbeständigem Aprilwetter ist, man ist so herrlich alleine am Elbstrand 😋
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now.
A wish right now.
A wish right now . . .
Because of this song: I can change - Lake Street Dive
Lake Street Dive is one of my favorite bands... such talented musicians and Rachel's voice is so flawless.
this song is one of their slow and thoughtful and clever songs and I was mesmerized by the video ...
hate casts a long shadow
I know that I lie in it
and let it rule my mind from time to time
escaping an old battle
clings on like a vine to me
whispers dirty lies in my ear
I know, we didn't start this fight
and I won't let it rule my heart tonight
I can change
I can change
I can still change
I can still change
tracing an old pattern
drawing the lines from where I am
and from where I wanna be
forget that old adage
the history continues to
keep us from the world we wanna see
I am scared that I won't get it right
but fear won't rule my heart tonight
I can change
I can change
I can still change
I can still change...
you can decide today to choose them :-)

HGGT!!
hybrid magnolia, 'Green Mist', j c raulston arboretum, ncsu, raleigh, north carolina
Fresh new kicks, and pants
You gotta like that, now you know you wanna dance
So move, outta your seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rolling, hold on
Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's going on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission so fall them back
Let 'em know, that you're too much
And this is a beat, uh, they can't touch
Pacing in the dark with
thousands of thoughts racing through my head.
A trail of cigarette butts in my wake.
Sighs and gives up any hope of sleep this night.

You can live years next door to a big pine tree, honored to have so venerable a neighbor, even when it sheds needles all over your flowers or wakes you, dropping big cones onto your deck at still of night.
