This is a Fairy Lilly quickly identified by two of my brainy contacts after the big cheese name potentate was a no show and my own aging cerebellum came up with a blank. Thanks Bonnie and Steve. Ya'll have a Large Weekend!
its winter in New Zealand and this presents plenty of rain shot opportunities! This decking has a habit of pooling water on the boards and the resulting reflection was very nice I think.
A very handy tower from where you can view a large area of this part of the park. The air was full of sound - mostly from the gibbons we had seen but also plenty of birdsong
This is the front deck of the Sea View Inn we stayed at in Carmel-by-the-Sea. It was such a peaceful and pretty little community and this Inn was very charming. Here I was just goofing around with different styles and came up with this variation on selective colouring....
Is it too early to start decorating for Christmas?
Decided to plop a wreath on Baron and snap a picture. He's settling quite well into his lovely new stall--which, yes, is already decked out with Christmas lights and decorations!
We see fox squirrels rummaging through the planter pots on our deck in late fall and winter. We think they have actually made deposits of snacks earlier in the year that they are now trying to retrieve!
Southampton is the largest city in the county of Hampshire on the south coast of England, and is a major port. It lies at the northernmost point of Southampton Water at the confluence of the River Test and River Itchen with the River Hamble joining to the south of the urban area.
The sun lights up the deck of Oriana as she leaves Southampton
Imagine a warm summerevening in a harbour on one of the famous waters of Frisia. There's almost no wind. Then imagine heavy rainclouds slowly sailing in. The boat-people gently move into their boats, some bigger, some smaller. Then it starts raining, pouring straight down for a while. Imagine having dinner inside and just when you have your after-dinner coffee, the rain has stopped and the sun shines again. A small golden ball somewere between the horizon and the clouds. With one hand you open a hatch to look at the upperdeck, straight into the sun. The other hand holds the coffee, a Beerenburger is just around the corner below deck. For a while you enjoy the view and suddenly notice you're not the only one in an open hatch.
And to always remember these boat moments, you make that simple click.

These deck prism arrays were placed in the iron decking at the top floor of the lighthouse, surrounding the large Fresnel lens. The prisms, flat on the surface but faceted below would refract light into the lighthouse tower and its spiral staircase below.
"In normal usage, The prism hangs below the ceiling and disperses the light sideways; the top is flat and installed flush with the deck, becoming part of the deck. A plain flat glass would just form a single bright spot below-- not very useful general illumination-- hence the prismatic shape.
The names "deck light" and "dead light" or "deadlight" are sometimes used, though the latter seems to be uncommon as a reference to prisms, as more often refers to plain-glass panels.
The earliest deck prisms with provenance are from the 1840s. Presumably they were used earlier, but how much earlier is unknown; the origin of the idea is lost, and glass is difficult to date." glassian.org/Prism/Deck/index.html
I was fascinated by the beauty, artisanship, and function of these, and had a difficult time finding information on the internet about their use in lighthouses.
By the way, this is not selective color. I'm not a fan of selective color, I did only a slight bit of dodging on the image. The details are much clearer when viewed larger on black.
