Two figures wandering
where the warm tide meets the sand—
morning’s breath still cool.
Laughing as the surf curls in,
they lift their feet to sunlight.
Bare feet grounding them to mother earth
Cool couple

I believe this is an otter den. I did not see any that day, but know that they have a healthy population in the area of the Nature Conservancy near Warm Beach on Port Susan Bay.
One more shot taken in the harsh sun that day but my camera was turned toward the shore from the jetty and not into the sun as in the swan and heron images. This area had protection from the jetty and made it an ideal spot to locate a watery home.
Adjectives 101: Blue, of course!
Two images of Over Owler Tor taken a in different conditions. The warm-toned image was taken just after sunset on a fine day and the cool-toned image was taken at sunset on a cloudy day. Both images were taken from Higger Tor but, as can be seen from the different position of elements on the horizon, from slightly different places.
Posted a shot of this raven before but this is a different pose.

Check out these cool cardinal facts:
Cardinals are early nesters.
Both male and female cardinal birds sing.
Some people put birdseed outside to keep cardinals as “pets.”
In many cultures, bird lovers have a special place in their hearts for cardinals.
Many people associate cardinals with pleasant memories or the idea that a deceased loved one is present.
Perhaps the cardinal’s comforting, beautiful, and cheerful song invokes pleasant memories from the past.
Or maybe the bold red color speaks to us; red is the color of blood, which gives us life.
For many, cardinals symbolically represent joy and hope.
When single people encounter cardinals, they believe the bird’s presence represents an omen that new romantic relationships are on the verge of manifesting.
In the United States, when people see cardinals in winter, they feel encouraged to look forward to springtime.

Everyone is staying cool this summer except poor Mirinda. She's ready to give up the bear suit after a few more customers.
I think I see a few customers coming her way! ;)
Colors are too cool because the white balance setting was wrong, but I like them better than the accurate, warmer colors I got in an even tighter shot a moment later.
If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
There's lots of those friendly people
They're showing me ways to go
But I never want to lose their inspiration
Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
And now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change
Well, I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales, they are my brothers
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon like a lover
a cool change
(Time) I know that it's time (for) for a cool change
(Time) now that my life (for a cool) is so prearranged (change)
(Time) I know that it's time (for) for a cool change
I've never been romantic
And sometimes I don't care
I know it may sound selfish
But let me breathe the air
Yeah, yeah
Let me breathe the air
If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
It's kind of a special feeling
Out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon like a lover
a cool change
(Time) I know that it's time (for) for a cool change
(Time) now that my life (for a cool) is so prearranged (change)
(Time) I know that it's time (for) for a cool (change) cool, cool change
it's time, it's time
For a (change) cool, cool change
(Time) ooh, I know (for) it's time for a cool (change) cool, cool change
(Time) now that my life (for a cool) is so prearranged (change)
Well, I know (time) I know, I know (for) I know, I know (a cool)
It's time for a (change) cool change
Yes, it is, yes, it is, yes, it is, yes, it is
You know it's time for a cool change
I seem to be drawn to negative space at the moment. I was trying out possible subjects for this Friday's 'Cylindrical' challenge, but then realised this weight was only partly cylindrical. On the other hand, I rather like the weight, so here it is. I found it recently in a local shop and the only thing I know about it is that it's German. I've had the 2 weights in the background for years and often use them for holding down paper bases in macro images to make the paper lie flat.

I stopped by Wright-Locke Farm today to give the goats some old bananas, given to me by a convenience store. We had a snowstorm last night, dropping six inches or so.
Looking out from the summit of Beinn Damh to the peaks of the Coulin forest near Torridon, north west Highlands of Scotland.
Watering the plants to keep them nice and healthy!

This was taken yesterday morning (Monday) on Dad's last day of the Christmas break. It was very cold and windy, a condition felt more fully out in the open fields, but at least it was sunny. It seems we haven't had a sunny day here in Ottawa for a long time, so even though it was cold we still had a bright good time!

Could this possibly help us to cool off in the dog days of summer? This is a wintry view of The Pyramids, an artificial hill resulting from massive landscape gardening in Erba Park. It was a convenient way to get rid of excavated earth, but in warmer seasons the hilll has also become an attraction for park visitors seeking a spot for picnicking, playing games or enjoying the view from an elevated position. Joggers even demonstrate their prowess by blithely moving up and over the hill. And young people head up the hill for late-night parties with portable barbecues, cases of beer and boom boxes. (They sometimes need a reminder to turn the volume down around 11 p.m.) [FUJI2518_lr_2000]
