"You will need to know the difference between Friday and a fried egg. It's quite a simple difference, but an important one. Friday comes at the end of the week, whereas a fried egg comes out of a chicken. Like most things, of course, it isn't quite that simple. The fried egg isn't properly a fried egg until it's been put in a frying pan and fried. This is something you wouldn't do to a Friday, of course, though you might do it on a Friday. You can also fry eggs on a Thursday, if you like, or on a cooker. It's all rather complicated, but it makes a kind of sense if you think about it for a while."

6 December 2008. Now we have snow. Today's shot was by far the coldest since I started this project, and the first with my new camera. The snow was still falling as I shot this, but it's hard to see since the flakes were very fine. The snow was deeper than it appears, too. It was a nice wintry day. Let's welcome the maple to winter!
After a number of attempts I eventually managed to get macro shots for comparison purposes of both the Small Red-eyed damselfly (top) and the Red-eyed damselfly (bottom). As you can see both are males, the Small Red-eyed has an additional blue segment on the end of its tail as well as more blue colouration on the underside of the first tail segments. The eyes are also a much deeper red in the Red-eyed damselfly whereas the small red-eyed are more brownish in colour. Obviously there is also a difference in size but this isn't easy to see in the field. Hopefully this is useful.

Good grief! This made Explore Front Page! (Thanks for letting me know)
Three different species of ladybird, congregating at the same point. No trickery involved, just a happy finding!
On the weeping silver birch tree in my garden.
10-spot (Adalia decempunctata), 2-spot (Adalia bipunctata) and cream-spot (Calvia 14-guttata), ladybirds.

I posted a similar shot of this discharge tower at the Craigmaddie Reservoir about 8 months ago. Since then some alterations & maintenance has been done. The A frame removed & metalwork repainted. This was taken on Tuesday & there was (very unusually) a significant police presence. Given the subsequent news that a woman’s body had been found in Glasgow that morning & police were searching this area for a missing man. Today (Thursday) comes the news that they have found a man’s body in one of these reservoirs & the police suspect a murder/ suicide. Scary - I might have been there when this was happening. I saw nothing.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Wherever courting couples find themselves these women with their roses are bound to follow. Turkish people are extremely polite to these persistent women. Eventually one goes and the next one pounces. I can't imagine British couples being half as patient.
What a difference a week makes--we were treated to an unseasonably warm and dry weather all this week. It was a great day to take the stroller out and soak in the abundance of sunshine.
The the colours rose as the light fell and the peaceful scene was the end of another day at Rosslyn Chapel where many have sought visit, to view and to wonder at the amazing structure.
There is a slight difference with the images reflected. Rosslyn Chapel Southern Prospect reflected has individual images that have been each given a darkening vignette to give a feel of the darkening scene as it looked that evening. Rosslyn Chapel Southern Scene reflected uses images that have not individually been given a darkening vignette. I am just reflecting the images now and intend to use a vignette once the reflected images are created.

Welcome to Rosslyn Chapel
There was a little difference in the weather today compared to last time I was in the mountains. Gray days like this make it harder to see (and harder to ski) since there are no shadows to show you where things are hidden under the snow. You can hardly see my ski tracks in the snow here.
I finally figured out this difference after talking to so many different people when the reign of Trump occurred and gauged their reactions. We've all been told there are major issues like abortion, immigration, health care, education...
But, I figured it out...the only real difference between a liberal and a conservative is that a conservative only reacts, votes, and advocates along certain lines when an issue directly effects them...so, the woman that votes for Trump even though her husband and father of her 4 kids is an illegal immigrant and then gets outraged when he's deported...or the many Americans who will get outraged when/if Trump completely defunds Obamacare and they are left with nothing...they don't think on the "we" basis. They think only about the "me."
But a liberal, a liberal cares when anything negatively impacts a member of our community. Because, we see the connection..it's not just about human rights we're talking about here, although plenty of liberals care about that. But, what I'm saying is that liberals understand their place in the world in a more holistic sense. We realize that if a member of the community, whether it is a Black man wrongfully killed by police or a an anti-Muslim ICE raid that leads to a harmful deportation and disruption of family lives, this negatively impacts the quality of life of everyone in the community and we cannot ignore it. A liberal realizes that all humans should be honored based on the identity they choose vs. the one they happen to be born with even if we ourselves are heterosexual because it makes for a more accepting world. A liberal realizes we need to invest in climate change solutions before we're actually under a rising sea level. A liberal realizes putting guns in the hands of people who are mentally ill so easily without any background checks is a detriment to the safety of all.
I realize liberals have gotten a bad name in some circles and media outlets...and, it's not hard to see why...we live in a self centered world where profit is a god and many conservatives all out for themselves are both unhappy and rich. They own so many more major media outlets and they control the message. But, let's be clear, money doesn't buy you happiness...being part of a community does bring happiness and increase your quality of life. And, if more people thought about the community aspect..more about the we and less about the I...the world would be a much better shared safe space for us to live in.
Just ask Denmark, the famous masters of hygge or happiness. They care more about the we. They make sure all people have some basic protections. And, though they seem fond of burning a bunch of candles around wooden furniture, they still have much fewer fatalities.

Leaving me was a celebration to you, but not to me. Yeh, you left me behind & I'm living without you. But it doesn't assure that I'm happy. Actually, you didn't leave me alone, cigarette was the last gift from you. :)
[N.B. I'm smoking for the last 7 years! The perspective is not applicable for me!!!]
See "The great green wall" for reference. Same leaves, but with 3 exact months of difference, on July 17th these were completely green.
original idea is not mine, and I even don't know who's the author. I changed it a bit to make this picture.
The difference between Male and Female Goldfinches is very subtle.
If you notice,
On the right the red face of the male goes further back behind the eye
Where on the left the females stops at the eye line.
So this is a breeding pair

This guy was busking outside Sainsbury's Supermarket at Green Park (Bath). As he played the violin/fiddle (how do you tell the difference?), he kind of sang along to himself. It was more fiddler's type ballads as compared to classical violin pieces he was playing.
He was not posing for me in this shot, but he was aware I was shooting. He told me his name was Rory and he was from Romania. Perhaps that's where his tunes came from and when he was singing to himself, he was picturing himself back there in the mountains....

A close comparison shot of a black-headed gull (rear) and a Mediterranean gull in winter plumage. The bill of the latter is heavier and it's hood remnants extend closer to the back of the head. However, the most obvious difference is the wings, with obvious black tips for the black-headed gull.
