As Christmas Day draws closer, it's very exciting to look at the wrapped gifts and to wonder what's inside each one. In fact, the excitement can sometimes become so intense that you can actually see it swirling around the gifts... 😄
Looking Close on Friday: "Wrapped Gifts" theme

Speaking of gifts, I wish the gift of a warm and festive holiday season to all of my Flickr friends, and a very Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. Thanks for your comments and support throughout the year; it is very much appreciated!
For any who might be interested in how this image was made, by the way, I've added a brief description in the first comment box.
Picture for the theme "Having fun". Not only Vas'ka, we are also happy to see the expression of delight on Vas'ka's face when he sees fried chicken
Vas'ka likes to sit right in front of the TV near the dining table. when we have lunch or dinner.

On outdoor location to a village called Mukhmelpur, on the outskirts of Delhi for a rural shoot, I captured this pretty young girl (model) looking towards me, carrying green grass home to be used as fodder for cattle in India. This girl looked rustic except for her tattoo on the wrist. Wearing a typical Indian rural outfit with her head covered with a 'dupatta', she totally looked her part of a young village girl. The wheat fields were beautiful green with a month or two away from harvesting!

The language of excitement is at best picturesque merely. You must be calm before you can utter oracles.
Henry David Thoreau.
Henry David Thoreau (July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862) was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian. A leading transcendentalist, Thoreau is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay "Civil Disobedience" (originally published as "Resistance to Civil Government"), an argument for disobedience to an unjust state.

It’s been all excitement on the photography front with the aurora being seen as far south as Cornwall the last two night. Did you get out? I saw the red alarm and was half prepared to go out to the coast, but looking out the window it was too cloudy. I kept stopping my catch up viewing of Endeavour and looking but it didn’t seem worth it. I caught a good showing from our coast last year but to be honest unless I’m going to some interesting dark sky location I don’t see the point of another local point and shoot snap. That said the fact I was up and down looking out the window I’ll probably do exactly that some night in the future. Anyway he’s a stupidly early photo from last June up at Steetley pier.

Keep chasing your dreams, my friends!
We drove down to Denali National Park and Wilderness Preserve on Sunday, Mother's Day. What was intended to be a relaxing day was anything but. We should have known better than to go yesterday, but we went anyways.
Normally, we stay away from Denali during tourist season because of the crowds. We prefer going where no one goes, but we do venture down to the Park in off season.
We seen the usual, moose and caribou, and there were a few people stopped to watch them. We went further on and there was a traffic jam, maybe 15 cars parked watching a bear on the hill. It wouldn't have been so bad if the people parked their cars on the side of the road, but no, in their haste and excitement, they parked their brains in their sphincter and not only parked in the middle of the road, but left their car doors open. It took us a few minutes to get through the congestion, and we parked along the side of the road a few hundred yards down the road. It was pathetic to watch, cars were hopscotching down the road, following the bear. The poor bear was on a hill and wanted to cross the road, but the cars would not let him.
Finally, the bear was right out our window looking at us, I snapped a few photos, this being one of them, then the cars and foot traffic surrounded us.
It took us another five or so minutes to get out of the jam again, we turned around where we could and waited, soon the traffic all passed us, so we knew the bear was out of sight. We left the park, disgusted at the people who park their brains when the see wildlife.
We may try Denali again on a weekday, but we have other places to go where no one goes.
I still can't hike like I used too before I got sick, but we did manage a small hike at another spot on the way home.

K861-05 came from the CP in Chicago, and amazingly, the power stayed on the train thru Corbin. Here it is passing thru downtown Starke, FL on April 9, 2016. They had a "Strawberry Festival" going on, and I almost watched a blue grass band get hit by this train.

We were in Madagascar when we stopped our bus for a chance to stretch our legs & (for me) to take a few shots. It was at a small village on the road from Ambositra to Ranomafana where I met these & several other children .They were obviously not used to tourists as we caused some excitement. Most people here were simply "dirt poor" .
In a small part of the wood, a red-berried tree was reason for a day of excitement for several species of birds - here: the red-eyed vireo, a bird with a descriptive name that sings a part of it - at least this is how I remember the song: vire-ee vire-oh.
I'd give a body part to be in Havasu right now and catch this kind of sunrise rather than watching the sun rise in my rear view mirror as I drive to work. My life has settle into a rut that is B.O.R.I.N.G.
I'm craving the open road, adventure, excitement and something to do rather than paperwork all day.
This morning there was a sluggish fly in the kitchen, sputtering around onto the window, then down to the counter and up again. Guru and Muse had a grand time chasing it. I took it away before they could eat it (ew).

Halloween is approaching fast and we have some amazing news for you! We just recently discovered that a world famous candy company Baaga Bay Corporation has created a viral contest for Halloween: They have released special candy that actually contains a MAP! That’s right! The kids who get all the map pieces together from the wrappers and find the location will be rewarded with LIFETIME SUPPLY OF CANDY!!! How amazing is that!
Would you like to eat candy for the rest of your life?! Who wouldn’t?! MadPea is so excited about this opportunity that we’re sharing the news from Baaga Bay Corporation with you and have helped them to pick carefully selected Candy Vendors around the grid and provide them with some special editions of their yummy sweet treats.
A map leading to delicious rewards is hidden inside the wrappers. All you have to do is go trick or treating and piece the map together… Sounds easy right?
I get a feeling of joy and excitement looking at these orange flowers. Is it just me or is orange known to affect people in certain ways? I asked ChatGPT and felt validated. Orange can make you feel a variety of emotions, including:
Excitement: Orange is a stimulating color that can trigger feelings of enthusiasm and passion.
Happiness: Orange is often described as a bright, happy, and joyful color.
Warmth: Orange is a warm color, associated with the beauty of the setting sun or the refreshing taste of citrus.
Confidence: Orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow for a warm, confident, fun hue.
Creativity: Orange increases oxygen to the brain, which stimulates mental activity and creativity.
Wow! The botanical information appears a bit boring after that. Eremaea is a genus of shrubs and small trees in the myrtle family and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. Eremaea pauciflora is a shrub with small leaves and orange flowers at the ends of its branches. The image is a handheld, in-camera focus stack. florabase.dbca.wa.gov.au/browse/profile/14104

In Algonquin Park there is a small pond formed by a Beaver Dam. I have drove by this pond without much excitement many times. However this time there was a canoeist paddling in the early morning sunlight. I was quite surprised when the canoe turned and I seen a camera and a tripod.
