"I'm open for possibilities. I'm open for choices. I always welcome new ideas. I'm always eager to learn. I'm never going to close my mind from learning."
Quote - Cesar Millan
This was one of a pair of shovelers who were floating on the lake, then suddenly took off, and flew right in front of me.
Absolutely adore photographing these little wrens - very vocal, very interesting and fun to observe bouncing around their territory!

‘Fundacion Antonia Guerrero' (Antonia Guerrero Foundation) is by Joaquín Fabian Aguilera Diaz and was inaugurated in October 2013. It is a tribute to Antonia Guerrero and in recognition of her work to improve the education of women in Estepona. It is created in paint and relief and it depicts a girl going up the stairs of Los Remedios church. The doves which can be seen at the topic the mural represent the liberation and freedom for women.
"La Ruta de Murales Artísticos de Estepona" (Estepona’s Route of Artistic Murals) is an incentive implemented by the local council and the mayor, Jose Maria Garcia Urbano that was started in September 2012. The route is just one part of a local rejuvenation project.
The objective was to improve and enliven some of Estepona’s forgotten or neglected neighbourhoods and it was hoped that the series of murals that are spread across the town would put Estepona on the tourist map and make it a cultural destination. It was clearly a successful initiative and looking at the wide variety of murals it is clear to see why tourists and residents alike are eager to follow the route and view each of the murals (information by Marianne Hill).

In Germany, Regierungspräsident (district president, abbreviation RP) is the job title of the head of a federal state authority in the federal states of Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Hesse, and North Rhine-Westphalia.
The jurisdiction of the authority defines a certain administrative division (Regierungsbezirk). The office holders are political civil servants, meaning they can be removed from their office by the government without reasons, and are appointed by the Minister President of the respective federal state.

Currently the dead of winter and work, so am working through some of my past trips. Here is a Beaver that was making it's way across a snowy afternoon.
"Perfect" flowers will have structures called stamens that produce the pollen. A stamen consists of the anthers where the pollen is made and filaments which support the anther. Perfect flowers will also have the female reproductive structures called the pistil. Thus, a perfect flower may be described as bisexual or hermaphroditic.

C-FYWT, a de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Mk. III Turbo-Beaver, waisted little time in getting airborne from runway 33 at Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport in Markham, Ontario.

The 55-year-old remains in fine fettle.
Today it is owned and operated by Pioneer Construction Inc. of Sudbury, Ontario - approximately 210 statute miles / 340 kilometres north of its birthplace in Toronto.
I have been eagerly awaiting sharing this one. That was a really pretty fly. The first time I had seen a white horse fly.

I don't know why some people ridicule the faith and blame God of what happened to them. But look, if they haven't known Him, neither they've been eager to seek Him, then why should God be blamed for their shitty predicaments.
If I were to answer the question... definitely, they deserve it, even more!

Saw this beautiful bike and loved the way it looked sitting there. I’ve had several hot bikes and (to me) they always look as though they can’t wait to get going and to go as fast as possible on the way there. I speak as an authority on the subject.
Eagerly poses youngster Archie for the photographer at the restaurant before my tea and his water will be served. After which he will assume the more convenient floored position next to my legs.
As usual, using only the small smartphone screen, the Snapseed editing is overdone - it only becomes obvious when checked on a bigger screen.
LOOOOOVED the "iron spider" suit at the end of spiderman homecoming. The big spider on the chest and all the gold sections makes it look so cool. I just had to start on a fig right now this could not wait until whenever he will actually wear it in a movie.

So far this winter in the Ottawa, Ontario region we have been blessed (says I--Dad, not so much) with 242cm (95+inches) of snow, already above, and well on our way to blowing out, our seasonal average of 223cm., though we'll probably get nowhere near the record set in 1970-71 of 444cm.
Bring it on!
(Sad news about the juvenile moose that's been haunting our area for the past few weeks: we found it dead this morning, apparently of starvation as it looked emaciated and there was no sign of predation, up on the Prescott-Russell Trail near our house. From the evidence, the poor thing had dragged itself the last few meters to it's final resting spot before tucking it's legs alongside itself and laying it's big brown head back over one shoulder. It was a touching sight, and somewhat surreal, but it would serve no purpose, and be in our opinion disrespectful, to post the photo Dad took of me warily inspecting the remains, which couldn't be more than two days old because we were along here Thursday afternoon.
So anyway, my love of all this snow is tempered by the fact that it is not a blessing for every creature around.)
