In silence soft, the butterfly glides,
Its fragile dance on the wind resides.
A flick of wings, a gentle sway,
Unseen ripples mark the day.
Beneath the sun, in vibrant hues,
It whispers secrets in nature’s muse.
A comet's spark, a thunder’s roar,
From tiny flaps, the great shifts soar.
Through veils of time, a path it weaves,
A story born while the world believes.
From petal's kiss to stormy skies,
The change cloaked in delicate guise.
So let us heed the silent flight,
For in its hush, the cosmos ignites,
Each flutter brings a world anew,
The butterfly's grace, forever true.

The Green House, lol.
aka The Sydney Opera House.
Lit up for Vivid in lime green.
Photographed from the Cahill Walkway along the Sydney Harbour Bridge, just near the south-eastern pylon. This is my 'go to' vantage point. You can rest your camera on a sandstone (circa 1930) barrier.

Thank you all so much for your wonderful words, awards, and the group invites. I truly do appreciate them all!♥
This is the Butterfly, a tower that is almost completed in downtown Vancouver. I couldn't get too near it as there was still a construction fence around it. Designed by Bing Thom (now Revery Architecture).
Here is a link to the website, showing what the entire building will look like when completed. westbankcorp.com/body-of-work/the-butterfly
"A ripple effect occurs when an initial disturbance to a system propagates outward to disturb an increasingly larger portion of the system, like ripples expanding across the water when an object is dropped into it."
This is not just a duck in a pond at sunset. It is a symbol of a phenomenon that we have all experienced directly in 2020. At one level the COVID-19 virus spread from one part of the world to everywhere very quickly like ripples on a pond. But not just the virus. The follow on effects of lock downs, loss of freedoms, jobs, security, pressure on medical systems, collapsing economies, all point to the ripple effect.
But ripple effects are not all bad either. In fact the same principle can lead to rapid solutions and even the healing of the world's woes. If we can find a way to create positive solutions to enhance the eco-system of our planet things can get better. But the choice is ours.
Re-post of an earlier photo. Kind of what I did before but I added the Adamski Effect and it turned out a little better
This tiny rover is built around the idea, if it's possible to stick the wheels directly to the bracket thingy (bricklink is down for maintenance, so I cannot look the part number up) - yes, it works with a short pin-with-stud.
The rest is just "keep it small" and the speed effect is simple rain.

The Labrador Effect
Back to my post from yesterday for HSoS.
First of all, I would like to thank all the lovely Flickrities for the wonderful comments on yesterday's topic - title wanted - , everyone could have been right.
In my tags I announced that there would be a second photo, actually I should have posted it the other way around, but then the story would be a lie :)
On an autumn walk I suddenly heard a noise and it was anything but heavenly. The little rascal growled violently and it sounded like this: "Don't dare to come closer, or my huge friend will hug you" :-) and indeed, there he was! I then went on quickly ;-))
Can you see it? It wasn't predictable, the Labrador Effect ;-)))
Thanks for visiting and time to watch, happy Sunday , stay healthy, all!
PS
The two dogs are very happy and live and guard on a small horse farm, with adjoining small pond, a paradise for anglers. I'm only sad myself because I couldn't stroke them.
This beautiful comma butterfly was today fluttering around my garden here in good old Bristol.
It was a small one compared with many others I have seen recently.
Maybe it's a juvenile ?
There has been a shortage of butterflies so far this summer, but things are eventually improving and more are arriving daily .... and that's just brilliant as I really like butterflies fluttering around my garden flowers!
.....[Butterfly].....
Butterfly beat thy delicate wings ....
Flutter and flap whilst the lavender swings ....
Yes, I know what yon birdie sings....
It's watching you dancing around on heavenly strings.

Take a moment to reflect about this: every action you have done, every step you have taken has led you to this point... It's beautiful chaos, isn't it? This theory is what they call "The Butterfly Effect."
The idea that even the small actions you do, have an effect on your life in ways we can't even imagine. So, close your eyes and realize the power you hold in your hands... Every selection, every moment adds to the storyline of your existence. Take a moment to contemplate on the beauty of it all.
!!!! WILL BE CLOSED !!!! 27th July ... hurry up to go visit !! :]
