After a difficult week...

I find the imperfection of this snapshot, randomly taken, very revealing of what SL can ... or rather IS... and how fading can everything be... Would there be any similarities with RL?

These Lily of the Valley were just about past but still photogenic in my opinion.

Happy Fence Friday....have a great weekend.

The last rays of sun fade away as the sun pass under the horizon at Lake Mattamuskeet WIldlife Refuge. Lake Mattamuskeet is the largest fresh water lake in North Carolina and a migratory wildlife sanctuary.

The roses burst into life in the wonderful spring that we had this year!

They continued to be a great show, all the way through the record breaking hot and dry summer. But they are fading away now.

But there might be time for a late showing, before the winter sets in?

The one shot I managed to get while the Beast from the East was in full swing. I was too busy working in it to stop for any proper shooting, this a quick handheld shot through the passenger window while stuck in a queue. Had to crop to lose the wing mirror.

In full autumn this backdrop is a kaleidoscope of orange and red. But we're a week or so past that now - the strong sunlight illuminating the grey bare branches created a very differnt but also enchanting view.

This is a small section of a begonia flower. The edges are starting to fade. HMM, everyone ! ! !

Fading flowers, still beautiful.

This was the front of a hotel in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.

If there are many different varieties of anything, it is the dahlia. There are more than, remember, 20,000 different types of dahlias! The dahlia is a special flower that can crossbreed with other dahlia varieties, which is why there are so many different varieties. Dahlias can be divided into growth height, inflorescence or color.

Colours fade, temples crumble, empires fall, but wise words endure.

spent flower floating on dark water. A flower lands face down in the water.

Tall spires of branches

reach into a pale grey dawn—

their voices hushed thin.

Edges blur into soft mist,

a dream half‑seen, half‑remembered.

 

Fade to impressionism

 

A detail from an Algarve building that has sadly seen better times but still impresses.
