With all the processing options available today, it seems we become programmed to look at photos and immediately analyze what might be done to tweak them to make them better in some way. I recall when I first began photography 8 or so years ago, I knew nothing about anything and thus deleted at least 90% of my photos upon review, often all of them. Now, even though I still don't know much, I delete none on the basis of being possibly able to do something with them. Sometimes I do with pleasing results. Most of the time I do not and they remain buried in the archives where they will probably never do more than take up space.
When this view of the far north end of the lake (where the turtles bask in the spring and summer but have now already vanished into their hibernational haunts) appeared, now habitual thinking said, "what does this need?" I thought for a while and finally determined that there was really nothing I could do to make this photo better. Different maybe, but not better. Perhaps you agree.
So here you have it...an actual unenhanced SOOC snap shot of my beloved northwoods entering prime time for color. Maybe not too artsy...but still kind of pretty...;-))

Thank you so much for the support and kindness....it's greatly appreciated!! Happy Monday and I hope you all have a great week! ⛄
And every bit of love left in this beat up, banged up, scarred up heart
That's been waitin' on a girl like you
I know it ain't much
But it comes alive with every touch
Every kiss already feels like you own it
Baby it's yours if you want it
Half of this rickety front porch swing
Every word of every song I sing
My jacket when it's cold
Oh baby, don't you know
You've got a place to lay your head
On the other side of my empty bed
And it's just made for fallin'
And it's yours if you want it
It's yours if you want it
Every morning when I was there, we were blessed in a dream time by the gorgeous view of the dawn over the mountains.
At first we used to see glimmers appearing on the horizon behind the mountain ridges, then gradually they were becoming stronger, covering all the sky with unreal colors until sunrise.
I was finally able to take this magnificent scene the last day I was there, it makes a wonderful goodbye to this enchanting place.

Aurore radieuse
Tous les matins où j'étais sur place, nous avons eu droit par un temps de rêve au spectacle prodigieux de l'aurore sur les montagnes.
Des lueurs d'abord ténues apparaissaient à l'horizon derrière les crêtes des montagnes , puis progressivement elles devenaient de plus en plus fortes et tapissaient tout le ciel de couleurs irréelles jusqu'au lever du soleil.
J'ai enfin pu prendre ce magnifique spectacle le dernier jour où j'étais là, cela fait un merveilleux au revoir à ce lieu enchanteur.

Every single hamlet among Lake Como area definitely worth a visit! The Strada Regia And the Orrido in Nesso itself will surely enchant you with its unique hearty atmosphere: a daily tour on this amazing place would totally take you back in time!
Visit the old hamlet by travelling along the Strada Regia, on a 48 miles road from Como to Bellagio both pedestrian and suitable for cycle. It once was a junction of mule tracks which connected both settlements and people.
Reach Ponte della Civera and look at the wonder Orrido: the flowing waters will charm you with their unique thunderous sound! Then take the 340 steps staircase running next to the small houses overlooking the lake…and get ready to discover a little bit of heaven right there!
Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining.. I was fast asleep in bed at 8am when the Postman knocked with a parcel, otherwise I would have missed this. I feel guilty about swearing at him now.
Thank you friends, how wonderful all your poetry - this photo I dedicate to everyone. special thanks to Angelina, you helped choose this picture today, may spring arrive soon.
Every day will I bless Thee!
Every day will I bless Thee!
And I will praise, will praise Thy name
For ever and ever!

This is the train driver of the magnificent steam loco, the Union of South Africa, that took us down to Weymouth on Sunday.
Union of South Africa is an LNER Class A4 steam locomotive built in Doncaster in 1937. It is one of six surviving Gresley A4s, currently operational and mainline certified. It was briefly renamed Osprey during part of the 1980s and 1990s due to political opposition against apartheid South Africa at the time.

Ramakien gallery at Wat Phra Kaew.
Wikipedia: The gallery or Phra Rabiang (พระระเบียง) is a covered corridor, walled on one side, that surrounds the entire temple like a cloister. Murals on the gallery walls depict the entire arc of the Ramakien epic, which is based on the Indian Ramayana. This version was translated and recomposed in Thai poetic form under the supervision of Rama I himself around 1797. The story is divided into five long episodes. The murals were commissioned by Rama I to tell his version of the epic. In fact, the main decorative theme throughout the temple is the Ramakien story. The concept of righteous kingship within the epic has long been recognized within Southeast Asia and has been appropriated by many kings to equate their countries with the legendary city of Ayodhya and the titular hero Rama. The murals were erased and completely repainted by the orders of Rama III. Ever since then they have been frequently restored.
One of the many roses that have exploded to life in my back yard. I took this with a vintage Canon FD 100mm macro lens coupled to my 5DmkIII - I think this is one of my favourite vintage lenses now - it's opened up a universe of photo opportunities in my back yard, which is what I need right now as work has never been busier, so I still get a photosession fix to balance me without having to travel too far!
My youngest son watched me edit this shot and he told me "wow that's like an iPad background shot"! Did you hear that Apple?
Every breaking wave on the shore
Tells the next one there'll be one more
And every gambler knows that to lose
Is what you're really there for...

Not easily accessible , this site I came across while driving a road near by. I had to stop and find a way to reach here, and I managed to do so. Soon after this I had a feeling that few might follow seeing me here from the road and within 30 minutes there were two more groups that approached seeing me (knowing that they too can come here). The view was fantastic and here is one of the images I took there.
Enjoy!
I wanted to finish the series of trees at Lake Mountain with this image of the lush green understory.
The fog was quite thick on the way up to the summit. There were few places to pull over along the winding road but I found one spot and stopped there most days. After looking at the dead stags posted in my first tree upload, I was feeling abit sad. I was sending images along the way to a friend overseas. When I came to this view and sent this image, I wrote "this makes me feel alive".
There was not a car in sight, the birds were active, the fog drifting around with a life of its own, the air was cool and crisp and my breath formed little puffs of white that hung in the air.
The forest can do that to you.
Yep. I felt alive.
