The Toa killer.

 

My entry for the 9th les Archives de Mavrah (Mavrah's Archives) contest on Bionifigs.

 

What I read on him heavily made me think of the Alien, so I used it a my primary inspiration. The shaping of the torso was inspired by the Engineer's suit in Prometheus.

 

He uses his six arms as shields against elemental attacks, and as spears to destroy the Toa's lifestones.

By the color around the bib of the white crowned sparrow there has been an indulgence in organic fruits and seeds and now soaks up the early morning sun

Passion flower (Passiflora incarnata) is a climbing vine with white and purple flowers. The chemicals in passion flower have calming effects.

Heron-Dandie House

(c. 1860) 21 Main Street

Patrick Heron is listed as a carpenter in an early business directory for the village. The Regency house remained within the Heron family for 30 years, and in 1919 became the home of James Dandie. Dandie, a hardware store owner, served on Streetsville’s Town Council for over 25 years. The building suffered a major fire in 2016.

“The merest breath reached out to me in the wilderness and halted me in my tracks. I cocked my head to listen intently to the rhythm of the earth; for the direction of the wind; to the whisper of the trees and in that one defining moment, my mind was made up and I stepped out boldly into the unknown direction of the path that will take me who knows where, but it is the beginning of a new and exciting journey and all I had to do to reach this point was to stand still; to listen; to observe; to be guided by the instincts within me that served me so well in the past and in so doing now, I leave the past behind and my heart and soul are glad to be separated from the weariness that had settled so heavily on my shoulders. My steps are light as is my entire being as I begin again …funny, I only just noticed that begin and being are anagrams of each other … “ - AP

DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO? - DIANA ROSS

 

Life from a snail's point of view and mine too ; 0))

 

Which way shall I go?

UP?

ACROSS?

DOWN?

what a dilemma

I cannot decide on a whim

WHAT IF …

too many what ifs …

while I wait I am silent

I try to think strategically

1. Supposing I reach the top

and don't like what I see!

2. Supposing I go across

sideways and merge my colours

subtly into Mother Nature's palette

3. Suppose I go back down

no WAIT!

I already came so far

to go back would be wasteful

of the time

of the experience

mmmm … the wall has tiny microscopic little beasties

they taste good though the wall itself is roughly hewn

a moveable feast

Who am I?

What am I?

A snail carrying her home upon her back

free to roam the open road

oh well, ok … the open wall if you please

I passed a slug a little while ago

a slug is surely just a homeless snail …

I should be more content with who I am

after all I am not homeless

I am not helpless

I am shielded from predators

I am the queen of my own castle

I hear a bird

a Dunnock I think, perhaps two

one is thin; the other fat and round as a Robin

they sing so prettily

I have no audible sound

but my heart sings

my mind thinks

I feel and climb this wall to evade capture

and to avoid being trodden underfoot

vain creatures; humans … they love my slime

they apply it to their skin

it heals and makes them smooth

I can heal myself if my outer shell cracks

I am tired now

I want to sleep but I have not yet decided

UP?

ACROSS?

DOWN?

It is quite a conundrum for a snail

oh there she is with her camera

I cry to her to make sure she gets my best side

of course she does not hear me or does she?

I think she might well do

she is in tune with nature

in harmony with her surroundings

she is in my domain

and I am in hers

together we can do great things

she has a profound effect on me

suddenly I decide

to enjoy the ride

the wind in my hair

oh wait!

Do I even have hair?

So much I do not know

I teach her

she teaches me

together we coexist

she leaves me to my meanderings

while she goes off a-wandering

tomorrow is another day

I will decide then, perhaps

UP?

ACROSS?

DOWN?

What's that she's saying?

Deux espèces que j'étais bien content de voir dans la neige.

Street Art

Hamburg

Bird of Paradise Flower w Rain Drops

With her head laid on her back, this female Canada Goose sat quite contently and watched what I was doing. I didn't get close as to disturb her, but as I got up to leave she lifted her head ever so slightly. I left some corn close by for her and went on my way.

Yellow Warblers are established breeding migrants in the Ottawa area. The Britannia conservation area is packed with them, and their behaviour is quite striking. On the one hand, the males are super aggressive, as they try to establish territory and begin mating. The birds sing, attract competitors, and then chase each other to try to take over the territory. Once the chase is on, the males make a chipping sound, and the less assertive males seek cover. This hormonally-charged and somewhat manic process is an aspect of what makes the spring migration harder from a photography perspective; the birds heading south after a breeding season in the boreal forest are more tuckered out and content to find a food source.

 

Meanwhile the females who are mating begin the process of building nests. The materials are very delicate, for the most part, including the strips of plant material seen here. Other elements include feathers and even spider webs.

 

Just as the mating and very territorial Red-winged Blackbirds drive off other birds, here including Orioles and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, the Yellow Warblers will drive off other warbler species. As most others are passing through on their way north, that is less of an issue, although in a year like this one, where there seem to be more Yellow Warblers than in recent years, and perhaps fewer of the other species, that makes it harder for bird watchers keen to follow the migration event.

Tierras de fuego,

me hicieron sentir,

me hicieron pensar...

esto que vivo, ¿es sueño o realidad?

 

En tierras de fuego

el alma pude descansar,

sentarme, reirme,

y la caída del sol observar.

 

En tierras de fuego

el alma contenta está.

Gracias por todos esos regalos

que ofreces sin nada esperar.

  

Muchas gracias a todos por vuestra visita!!!!

Thanks for all :DD:DD

The starling murmurations at Ibsley earlier this year were extremely spectacular, on this occasion complimented by a superb sunset. A fantastic sight to behold.

Easily my best shot so far. Captured in the streets of Melbourne.

 

This moment unfolded in a split second right in front of me. I saw the frame and just reacted by instinct. It wasn't until I looked back at the photo later that I realized how heavy the context actually was.

 

The irony of the sign, "Hill of Content", makes it almost surreal. While the name suggests a state of satisfaction, the frame captures the two extremes of city life crossing paths. The man in the sharp suit isn't just walking by; he's looking right at the homeless man sitting against the wall.

 

That look between them, right under that sign, says it all. It makes you stop and wonder who is actually "content," and exposes that city divide we usually ignore in a way that’s impossible to miss.

 

Really proud of this one.

At 190 feet, Mooney Falls is the largest waterfall along Havasu Creek. The turquoise blue color comes from high mineral content in the source spring. In fact, Havasupai means "People of the Blue-Green Water" which is very fitting. Anyhow, it was nice to see that Mooney Falls wasn't damaged as bad by the 2008 flood compared to some of the upper waterfalls. Definitely a welcome oasis in the desert!
