You find a selection of my 80 BEST PHOTOS (mostly not yet on Flickr) here: www.lacerta-bilineata.com/western-green-lizard-lacerta-bi... (the website exists in ESPAÑOL, FRANÇAIS, ITALIANO, ENGLISH, DEUTSCH)
ABOUT THE PHOTO:
So this photo is a bit of a novelty for me - at least here on Flickr, but it's also a journey back in time in a sense. I've always loved b/w and sepia photography; already as a very young teenager I would go out into the woods with an old Pentax Spotmatic (which I had nicked from my father) whenever it was a foggy day to shoot b/w compositions of sunbeams cutting through the ghostlike trees.
I used films with a sensitivity of at least 1600 (for those of you who remember what that means 😉 ), and the resulting photos had an incredibly fine grain which I loved; I blew them up to the size of posters and hung them on the walls of my teenage man-cave next to Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Slash.
But then I abandoned photography altogether for 20 years, and when I finally picked up a camera again, it was one of the digital kind. Now neither film nor grain played any role in my photographic endeavours - let alone b/w compositions: because the reason I fell in love with shooting pictures once more was the rare and incredibly colorful lizard species that had chosen my garden as its habitat.
It's this species - the Lacerta bilineata aka the western green lizard - that my photo website www.lacerta-bilineata.com/ and also my Flickr gallery are dedicated to, but I've since expanded that theme a bit so that it now comprises the whole Lacerta bilineata habitat, which is to say my garden and its immediate surroundings and all the flora and fauna I find in it.
I like that my gallery and the website have this clear theme, because in order to rise to the challenge of portraying all aspects of a very specific little eco system (which also happens to be my home of sorts), it forces me to constantly explore it from fresh angles, and I keep discovering fascinating new motives as my photographic journey continues.
Which brings me to the horse pasture you see in this photo. This playground for happy horsies lies just outside my garden, and it normally only interests me insofar as my green reptile friends claim parts of it as their territory, and I very much prefer it to be horseless (which it thankfully often is).
Not that the horses bother the reptiles - the lizards don't mind them one bit, and I've even seen them jump from the safety of the fly honeysuckle shrub which the pasture borders on right between the deadly looking hooves of the horses to forage for snails, without any sign of fear or even respect.
No, the reason I have a very conflicted relationship with those horses is that they are mighty cute and that there's usually also foals. The sight of those beautiful, happy animals jumping around and frolicking (it's a huge pasture and you can tell the horses really love it) is irresistible: and that inevitably attracts what in the entire universe is known as the most destructive anti-matter and ultimate undoing of any nature photographer: other humans.
Unlike with the horses, the lizards ARE indeed very much bothered by specimens of loud, unpredictable Homo sapiens sapiens - which makes those (and by extension also the horses) the cryptonite of this here reptile photographer. It's not the horses' fault, I know that, but that doesn't change a thing. I'm just telling you how it is (and some of you might have read about the traumatic events I had to endure to get a particular photo - if not, read at your own risk here: www.flickr.com/photos/191055893@N07/51405389883/in/datepo... - which clearly demonstrated that even when it's entirely horseless, that pasture is still a threat for artistic endeavours).
But back to the photo. So one morning during my vacation back in May I got up quite early. It had rained all night, and now the fog was creeping up from the valley below to our village just as the sky cleared up and the morning sun started to shine through the trees.
And just as I did when I was a teenager I grabbed my camera and ran out to photograph this beautiful mood of ghostlike trees and sunbeams cutting through the mist. There had already been such a day a week earlier (which is when I took this photo: www.flickr.com/photos/191055893@N07/51543603732/in/datepo... ), but this time, the horses were also there.
Because of our slightly strained relationship I only took this one photo of them (I now wish I had taken more: talk about missed opportunities), and otherwise concentrated on the landscape. It was only later when I went through all the photos on my computer that I realized that I actually really liked those horses, even despite the whole composition being such a cliché. And I realized another thing: when I drained the photo of all the color, I liked it even better - because there was almost a bit of grain in it, like in the photos from my youth.
Since then I have experimented quite a bit with b/w and sepia compositions (some of which I will upload here eventually I guess), but this photo here is the first one that helped me rediscover my old passion. I hope you like it even though it builds quite a stark contrast with the rest of my tiny - and very colorful - gallery. But in the spirit of showing you the whole Lacerta bilineata habitat (and also in the spirit of expanding my gallery a bit beyond lizards and insects), I think it's not such a bad fit.
As always, many greetings to all of you, have a wonderful day and don't hesitate to let me know what you think 😊
BUT IT`S NOT MY FAULT !!!!!!!

South coast of Malta, area known as L-ilsejjen. The gap in the cliff at the centre in the background is a recently (2019) collapsed cave. This is part of the Maghlaq fault. The rock is mainly Upper Coralline Limestone, the youngest on the island, formed during Miocene, (Tortonian to Messinian). It is a hard pale-grey limestone deposited in shallow waters and contains corals and coralline algal fossils.

Shot with an incredibly complex new camera that I'm still learning, but I thought this shot was unique enough to post despite its many faults.

LOVE IS LIKE A BUTTERFLY – DOLLY PARTON
SEPTEMBER DANCES
Butterfly kisses tickling my cheek
with gentle soft wings fluttering and meek
whispered words brushing my ears
caressing my skin
warm and golden
sun-kissed and velvety peach texture
such fine downy feelings
dreamy, delightful and meaningful glances
that conjure up September dances
of love and longing
such sweet all-embracing
touching and tracing our finger tips
down profiles so gleaming
in the subtly revealing
after-glow that left us
belonging and longing for more
knowing that this may be all that we have
let us savour the moments,
so precious and glad
to have gifted this time to each other.

The highest point in Idaho at 12,662’/ 3859 m, Borah Peak (left) is unique in being primarily composed of limestone (most of the gray rock seen here) that was deposited at the bottom of an ocean 420 million years ago. The slightly younger reddish siltstones on the right side form some wonderful banded strata below the summit of Sacajawea Peak.
Also notable is the light colored band at the base of the mountain seen at the bottom of the picture. I initially assumed this was a road or a trail, but it’s a remnant of a magnitude 4.9 earthquake that hit the area in 1983, the largest quake ever recorded in Idaho. The valley side of the fault dropped as much as 9’/ 2.7 m and the mountain side rose by as much as 3’ / 1 m, leaving a notable fault scarp 21 miles/ 34 km long.
Driving down Hwy 198 on the way to Coalinga, great drive.
The line running through the valley below is the San Andreas fault.

♫ Chagrin d'ami ♫
Effacer des souvenirs, longtemps souffrir,
Lointains soupirs
Mais faire comme si tout allait
Frère s'en est allé, triste sans l'étaler
Douleur dans le coeur, froid comme une nuit au chalet,
Trahis comme jamais, fou comme je t'aimais.
Fou comme on traînait, faux comme en télé.
Faut commenter les trucs qui nous blessent paraît-il.
Quand on donne tout par estime.
Tout part en spleen, tout-par en speed
Notre amitié a mal vieilli comme sting
J'ai dû l’oublier comme une partie d'ma vie
Tu te moques des années
Tu manqueras aux anniv
La vie qu'on menait, le feu qu'on a mis
Qu'est-ce que ça fait mal un chagrin d'ami
With a rail train billed to CSX @ Crestline, OH and a few cars for Upper Sandusky, a run east was necessary on CFE. I asked the engineer if he could take the OHCR unit and he said sure. It was nice to finally get this unit on a beautiful sunny afternoon. Now I don't have to worry about it anymore

✨"I love Loving Nature.."✨
✨ I love Loving Nature pouring love everywhere, No one or even "Still Life" is spared, everything is growth, greenery, even the paved roads let life appear... by its small solitary flowers piercing the tar ... .
💕 Everything is harmony between all living species on Earth; Let's look at the Earth with all these Colors, these Shades.... it's Harmony! , it's a Work of Art!.... and everything that is ugly, black, in this painting that we are looking at, take a good look, it's the Human Being who creates it. 💕
Fragile..., Nature does what she can, but some have lost their values, by the lure of gain, material wealth... . Wealth makes us lose the goodness of the heart, we don't value what Mother Nature offers us..., we kill her little by little, and this is only the beginning, with this climate in disarray.
We Kill it and we Suffer it... by Our Fault.
Material wealth helps Happiness, but it's not Happiness.. I don't care if I earn a little or a lot, the important thing is what I grow inside my garden and what I share on the outside.... but it"s true that if I am the only one to share my Interior... well I will have nothing to share with those who are different from me, who are closed and never say what they think.
Pride, an oversized ego, greed, vanity, lying and falsehood are not part of my life. And I'm not even here to support it! lol!.
Happy with my simplicity, and happy to share it with people who have the same values as me, and that my parents and God taught me. A sensible, healthy life with values of Respect, Sharing, Authenticity, Compassion, Love. ✨L.A. 10/10/2022

✨ " Me encanta la Naturaleza amandonos "✨
✨ Me encanta la Naturaleza que nos ama derramando amor por todas partes, Nadie, ni siquiera la "Naturaleza muerta" se salvan, todo es crecimiento, verdor, hasta los caminos pavimentados dejan aparecer la vida... por sus pequenas flores solitarias perforando el alquitran... .
💕 Todo es armonia entre todas las especies vivas de la Tierra; Miremos la Tierra con todos estos Colores, estos Tonos... ¡es Armonia! , es una Obra de Arte!.... y todo lo que es feo, negro, en que estamos mirando, fijense bien, es el Ser Humano Quien lo Crea. 💕
Fragil..., la Naturaleza hace lo que puede, pero algunos han perdido sus valores, por el senuelo de la ganancia, la riqueza material... . La riqueza nos hace perder la bondad del corazon, no valoramos lo que nos ofrece la Madre Naturaleza..., la vamos matando poco a poco, y esto es solo el principio, con este clima en desorden.
Lo Matamos y lo Sufrimos... por Nuestra Culpa.
La riqueza material ayuda a la Felicidad, pero no es Felicidad.. No me importa si gano poco o mucho, lo importante es lo que cultivo dentro de mi jardin y lo que comparto afuera.... pero es cierto que si soy la unica que comparte mi Interior... pues no tendré nada que compartir con los que son diferentes a mi, que son cerrados y nunca dicen lo que piensan de verdade !.
El orgullo, un ego sobredimensionado, la codicia, la vanidad, la mentira y la falsedad no forman parte de mi vida. ¡Y ni siquiera estoy aqui para apoyarlo ni soportalo ! lol !
Feliz con mi sencillez, y feliz de poder compartirla con personas que tienen los mismos valores que yo, y que mis padres y Dios me ensenaron. Una vida sensata, saludable con valores de Respeto, de Compartir, de Autenticidad, de Compasión, de Amor. L.A. 10/08/2022

✨"J'aime la Nature Aimante .."✨
✨ J' aime la Nature Aimante nous déversant de l'amour en toute part , Personne ni même "Aucune Nature Morte" n'est épargnée, tout est croissance, verdure, même les route goudronnées laissent apparaitre la Vie ... par ses petites fleurs solitaires perçant le goudron ... .
💕 Tout est harmonie entre toute les espèces vivantes sur Terre; Regardons la Terre avec toutes ces Couleurs, ces Nuances.... c'est Harmonie ! , c'est une Oeuvre d'Art !.... et tout ce qui est moche, noir, pauvre, dans ce tableau que nous regardons, regardez bien c'est l'Etre humain qui le crée. 💕
Fragile..., la Nature fait ce qu'elle peut, mais certains ont perdu leurs valeurs, par l'appât du gain, les richesses matérielles ... . Les richesses nous fait perdre la bonté du coeur, on ne valorise pas ce que Mère Nature nous Offre.., on la tue petit à petit, et ce n'est que le début, avec ce climat en déroute.
Nous la Tuons et nous la Subissons... par Notre Faute.
Les richesses matérielles aide au Bonheur, mais ce n'est pas le Bonheur.. Moi je m'en Fou de gagner peu ou beaucoup , l'important c' est ce que je cultive à l'intérieur de mon jardin et que je partage à l'extérieur.... mais il est vrai que si je suis la seule à partager mon Intérieur... et bien je n'aurai rien à partager avec ceux qui sont différent de moi, qui sont fermés et ne disent jamais ce qu'ils pensent.
l'Orgueil, un ego surdimensionné, l'avidité, la vanité, le mensonge et la fausseté ne font pas partie de ma vie. Et je ne suis même pas là pour la supporter ! lol !.
Heureuse par ma simplicité, et heureuse de la partager avec des personnes ayant les mêmes valeurs que moi, et que mes parents et Dieu m'ont enseignées. Une vie sensée, et saine avec des valeurs de Respect , de Partage, d'Authenticité, de Compassion, d' Amour. ✨ L.A. 10/08/2022

#CHEK MY BIO FOR BLOG DETAILS AND LANDMARKS
In this view of the Owl Creek Mountains taken just south of Thermopolis Wyoming, a BNSF freight train can be seen exiting the north portal (mouth) of the Canyon. At the mouth of the canyon the river changes names from the Wind River to the Bighorn River; two names, one river. The Wind River Canyon is about 2,500 feet deep at its deepest, 17 miles long, 200 to 3,000 feet wide and has a drop of about 300 feet from its head to the canyon mouth. In this southward looking view, the broad north limb of the Owl Creek Mountain asymmetrical faulted anticlinal structure is visible. The south flank (of the Owl Creek Mountains [not visible and around 17 miles south of this location] is structurally much more complicated geologically.

Straight lines are unusual in nature so this straight section of rock in Glacier National Park caught my eye.
I love you…
When you say it… mean it!.
If you say it… own it.
If you express it… show it with actions.
If you don’t feel it… just don’t say anything.
Care for the other one’s feelings.
Don’t lie to have them or keep them with you.
Be kind.
Be generous.
Don’t hurt if you can prevent it.
The end of this chapter.
Sadness stops now.
