One of the most common and widespread sparrows in North America. Fairly large with a long, rounded tail. Overall coarsely patterned with gray and brown, usually with more reddish-brown wings and tail. Look especially for thick brown streaks on the underparts and a broad dark mustache stripe. Significant variation in plumage geographically: relatively pale and rusty in the southwestern U.S.; blacker streaking in California; overall dusky in the Pacific Northwest. Larger, longer-tailed and usually more rusty than Savannah Sparrow. Found in a variety of scrubby habitats both near and far from human development, especially edges of fields, often near water. Listen for husky "chimp" calls and melodic song with chips and trills. (eBird)

Always happy to see a Song Sparrow. This one is in fresh breeding plumage and looks great against the pale grey background of the Ottawa River.

This was an idea of my Flickr friend Jim Hill. I already posted two of those images separately and he proposed that it could make a nice triptych if I included a third one with a modern digital look. He saw more in this triptych as well as he noted that the amount of people in the images could stand for the growing accessibility of photography. Kudos to you, Jim!
If you like this triptych, head over to Jim's page and leave him a few likes. If not, head over there all the more and find something you like. His night images from Chicago stand out and are among the most interesting work here on Flickr.
This also concludes my series of images from Corfu. Tomorrow, a series in Frankfurt will start.
Abstracted the forms some, this land soon being developed. Black rock referring to the black lava rock.

Yesterday I posted to Substack a bit of writing (and audio) about why we embrace the imperfections of film photography.
Few things exemplify that as much as expired film developed in ECN-2. Here, there's color shifts and probably some odd development quirks. There are white specks all over it as well, though I don't remember why.
I shot this in 2021 and developed it that autumn. I don't know why it took me this long to share it. Probably because of the specks and shifts.
These imperfections, well, looks like I haven't quite embraced them. But it's still kind of a cool photo. And a wonderful place.

Set in a gated community amidst nurturing green and the white glory of the pagoda dogwood, this condominium birdhouse development offers luxury apartments and stylish single homes. It is situated in the Children's Garden of Ellyn's LOST GARDEN.
NOW! What are YOU doing about the latest iteration of Flickr??
** SmugMug - who conjured up that name?! From having looked it over, I can't see staying. To me, it seems that too many things are happening at once!
It's that time of the year again. Hiawatha #336 arrives Chicago behind the class Amtrak B32-8WH which is subbing for a Charger that shit out a few days prior. The searchlight installations at the east end of Morgan Street were installed in the early 1980s.
Real estate development has exploded in the West Loop over the past decade. The Fulton Labs on the right were completed last year, and 345 N. Morgan on the left was completed a few months ago (still under construction when this picture was taken). The latter was built by Sterling Bay which is also overseeing the redevelopment of the former ADM flour mill. What you see here is only a fraction of what's to come to the West Loop in the next few years.
Here comes Mycena Crocata in different stages of development.

I took a couple of shots and stitched them together to form this panorama of the Ocean Reef Marina development. Im keen to see progress at this site as there will be a 50 m Sea water pool which I can see the beginnings of. I will be keen to use this pool when finished.
Of all the wild flowers I've grown, I reckon that corn marigolds are the most attractive to insect life. Hoverflies, smaller flies, bugs and beetles all visit. This one is a tiny common green shield bug 2nd. instar nymph. Shield bugs have a five stage development from egg to maturity. This charming little character was less than the size of a split lentil. It was very shy and didn't want to remain exposed on the top of the flower. It kept disappearing over the edge of the petals to hide on the underside. I just gently flipped the flower over temporarily and took a few snaps before bending it upright again to leave the shield bug nymph in peace.
...as in I'm pretty sure being upside down is good for their brain development. Don't quote me on that though. Unbelievably this is my fifth explore in 5 days!!!!!
Our grandson was mighty proud to show of his tower of interlocking blocks. (We get to tend two of our grandchildren one day each week.)

I’ve been thinking recently that there is something missing from flickr, (well something that I haven’t found yet). A kind of place (group) that has the ability to inspire, to welcome experimentation, a place that has a lot more depth than the usual shallow resting place for hundreds of images. I want equality, a place that isn’t run by power obsessed admin's, a place that isn’t a all closed network of buddies, a place that welcomes true thought, true learning, true experimentation. I want to visit to contribute, to experiment, to crit others work, to have a balanced group of people that respect others values. I want a place that doesn’t have any irritating insecure people trying to tell you how good they are. Yes I'm wanting a lot and I do get these things from different groups (id say about 3 or 4 that I visit regularly) but I want them all in one place.
To be honest, I would like to cherry pick the people I value (for many reasons) and get them together and create a new group that would be fantastic. But I also don’t want to upset anybody…and god not another group, please no not more groups.
I also have been wondering if there isn’t a better way of developing ideas, sparking inspiration. For me I would love to get more involved in a discussion-based group concerning the ideas behind photography. Kind of the deeper physiological elements to why we take photos, what the viewer feels, presenting challenging concepts, blar blar blar. I feel that to push in these directions is fascinating. As some of you may have observed, I've been trying to get this type of thing going in the threads of some groups, but it doest seem to be working. What I'm asking here I suppose is does anybody know of any groups that offer this type of thing or do I have to set one up, or do I try and push one of the groups I'm involved in into this direction? Also I wonder if there is any others out there, who are committed enough and have the desire to challenge them selves, push themselves in different directions. I only know of a few people here on flicker that I ‘Guess’ would welcome this type of direction but id truly love to meet more. This isn’t about just image quality (that is a given) its about ideas, experimentation, forging new ground (if that’s possible)
Anyway, any thoughts out there?
Note: this is taken on Constantine beach at sunset this summer. I got down very low and used a polarizer to maintain the foreground leading lines. Anyway I hope you like it.
The North Carolina Arboretum is an arboretum and botanical garden located within the Bent Creek Experimental Forest of the Pisgah National Forest at 100 Frederick Law Olmsted Way, southwest of Asheville, North Carolina near the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is open daily except for Christmas Day. There is no admission charge, but some parking fees do apply. Although the idea for the arboretum stretches back to landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted in 1898, who wished to create an arboretum at the nearby Biltmore Estate, today's arboretum was established by the General Assembly relatively recently, in 1986, as a facility of the University of North Carolina. In 1989 the site was officially designated the North Carolina Arboretum. The arboretum is still under active development. It includes many hiking and bicycling trails, a bonsai collection, a holly garden, and a stream garden. Its tree collection includes a fine set of Metasequoias planted in 1950, and now said to be the tallest in the south. In 2016, a certification from Bee Campus USA recognized the arboretum's efforts to teach about and support pollinators.

Tucked into the mountains of Iwate Prefecture near the under visited, stunning Sanriku Coast in eastern Japan is the Iwate Development Railway.
Established in 1939, the railway operated passenger and limestone transport from its mine in Iwate Ishibashi, to the cement plant at the port city of Ofunato for a total of 11km in length. The line suffered severe damage during the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In fact, photos of debris covering the top of this bridge can be found online. The railway was brought back just 8 months after the quake and has been going strong since.
Two trains, pulled by DD56 Centercabs, shuttle 18 car limestone trains back and forth from the mine to the cement plant around 12-18 times a day. Here a midday empty train crosses over the Sakari River bridge bound for the mine for another load of rocks.
