Trendy shapes and beautiful colors form the most avant-garde trends
The Evening Primrose flowers unfurl as the sun sets, they are so vibrant they almost glow as darkness falls. They have a very fragrant perfume which floats on the evening air attracting moths and other night flying insects.
If you wait patiently, the flower buds gently start to unfurl then pop open in a flourish, it's always worth waiting for.

119 Pictures in 2019 #100: Stripes
This is one of the most unique rainbows I've ever seen. The colors seemed to go on forever from the inner most stripe. And the sky changed so quickly that the clouds went from grey to blue to gold to pink. Just lovely.
We drove to the other side to Sieseby trying to catch some of the lovely light at sundown..
Still a bit chilly in the evening time.

I have passed this building on a hillside some miles from where I live a number of times. I still haven't worked out what it's used for.

From yesterday, 31 May 2019: Oh, my goodness, the smoke from the wildfire in northern Alberta reached us yesterday evening. I was out at a meeting and all was as usual on my drive there. When I came out later, the air reeked of smoke and visibility was poor. The Weather Network had warned that this summer would be a smoky one - again. Last summer was dreadful and not good health-wise to go out in, so I stayed home on so many days. When I woke up this morning, my whole house smelled strongly of smoke. It always makes me think of the poor people close to any forest fire - how on earth do they breath?!
"The Air Quality Health Index in Calgary has reached 10+, or high risk, with most of the province under a special air quality alert due to smoke blowing in from wildfires in northern Alberta.
Dr. Raj Bhardwaj, a Calgary physician, says the particulate in the air on Friday has the same health effects as smoking 10-15 cigarettes a day." From CBC News.
Flickr staff seem to have solved several issues, especially in connection with views statistics. The number of views has never been accurate, we all know that, but very recently, the number of views has been out of control. Now things seem to be back to a more realistic number, thank goodness, I haven't yet tested out the issue of comments and faves, to see if all comments and all faves are acknowledged, but it looks OK so far. That would be great to know that when someone comments on an image, their comment/fave can be seen, especially after going to the trouble of writing a comment.
Posting a few more photos today taken during our May Species Count on 26 May 2019. All the photos posted this afternoon were taken at our first stop on the Count, which was at the Castell Ranch, SW of Calgary. This is such a rewarding and enjoyable place to be, with so many species flocking to the feeders, grounds and pond. Unfortunately, most of my shots were taken through a glass window that had netting on the outside, to prevent birds from flying into the window. We had to look from this room, in order for the birds to come down - standing outside tends to keep the birds away. On the Count last year, the same thing happened and almost all my photos were blurry. This year, I think I can manage to rescue a few of the less blurry images, sharpening them as much as I dare.
After this early morning treat, we drove a few of the back roads in the area, calling in at several acreages. Brown-Lowery Provincial Park was also one of our stops - has an outhouse (yay!) and a picnic table where we sat for our lunch. The park is not part of our Count area, but each year, we stop there for the outhouse and table and also to take a short walk into the forest to check and see if there are any Calypso Orchids in bloom. We managed to find one tiny flower in full bloom, so we were content.
Afterwards, we made one last drive to see if there was any sign of a Bobolink. One or two people have been seeing them already this spring. A couple of cyclists came by and one of them asked if we were looking for a Bobolink - he told us he had seen one just a few hours earlier in a particular place. Sure enough, with a bit of patience, we suddenly realized that there was one behind us on the far side of the road. Will post a dreadful photo of it soon, just for the record.
MS Amorella in Turku harbour, Finland. She was built in 1988. Photo is taken from my balcony. It is nice to watch these big big ships arrives and leaves every morning/evening.
After some rainy cloudy days we had here in czech republic I can´t stop capturing these beautiful things when the sun comes :)

Aunt Lil...1920's
"From the daring decade of the 1920s--think glittering nightlife, flapper fashion, the heady perfume of luxury...came the fragrance Soir de Paris, of Evening in Paris, as we knew it here. By the 1950's it was touted as the fragrance more women wear than any other in the world and by 1969 it had disappeared." Vermont Country Store Website.
