I've always wondered why.Why do we make those choices ? Or what if we don't choose at all. You have to step aside and think deeply at what exactly you really want, or just, simply why. Heroes are made by the paths they choose, not the powers they are graced with.

The Fresno Grizzlies are a Minor League Baseball team of the Pacific Coast League (PCL) and the Triple-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals. They are located in Fresno, California, and play their home games at Chukchansi Park which opened in 2002 and has a capacity of 12,500. They previously played at Pete Beiden Field from 1998 to 2001. The Grizzlies won the PCL championship in 2015, making it the only league title in franchise history. All games are broadcast on KYNO with Doug Greenwald handling the play-by-play.
Professional baseball first came to Fresno in 1898 when it had a team in the original California League. In the intervening years before the arrival of the Grizzlies, Fresno fielded teams in the California State League in 1910 and 1913, and in the current California League from 1941 through 1988, including the Fresno Cardinals (1941–1956), Fresno Sun Sox (1957), Fresno Giants (1958–1987), and Fresno Suns (1988).
When Major League Baseball awarded an expansion team (the Arizona Diamondbacks) to Phoenix, Arizona, that would begin playing in 1998, the Phoenix Firebirds of the Pacific Coast League (the San Francisco Giants' Triple-A affiliate) were forced to move. The Firebirds moved to Tucson, Arizona and changed their name to the Tucson Sidewinders while changing their affiliation to the Diamondbacks. That prompted the Tucson Toros to move to Fresno, giving Fresno its first PCL team since 1906. The Toros were renamed the Grizzlies and became the Giants' new Triple-A affiliate.
From 1998 through 2001 the Grizzlies played at Pete Beiden Field at California State University, Fresno, before moving to Chukchansi Park.
The team hosted such promotions as K-Fed Night and Second Chance Night in 2006; The Price Is Right Night in 2007; and Totally Rad 80s Night featuring The Karate Kid star Billy Zabka in May 2008.
Parker, the Grizzlies mascot, was named Best Mascot of 2007 by GameOps, beating out all other major and minor league mascots. The Grizzlies won the Minor League Baseball Promotion of the Year award in 2008 for their "Mascot Showdown" featuring Parker and the Phillie Phanatic. The team's opening day catcher in 2010, Buster Posey, would be the San Francisco Giants' starting catcher for the World Series six months later (the Giants' starting catcher for most of their World Championship season, Bengie Molina, would start for their opponents, the Texas Rangers), resulting in his National League Rookie of the Year award that year.
The Grizzlies gained national attention in summer 2015 for playing a game as The Fresno Tacos, which was done to celebrate the city of Fresno's annual Taco Truck Throwdown and came complete with a specially designed tacos uniform. In 2015, they won the Triple-A Baseball National Championship Game by defeating the Columbus Clippers, 7–0, in El Paso, Texas.
Following the 2017 season, Grizzlies manager Tony DeFrancesco will not return to the Houston Astros organization for the 2018 season. DeFrancesco led Fresno to a winning record in each of his three seasons at the helm, his clubs compiling a record of 234-194 (.547) from 2015-2017. The run marked the first time in franchise history (since 1998) the Grizzlies completed three consecutive winning seasons.
On January 19, 2018, Rodney Linares was named the 10th manager in Grizzlies history. The team was sold to Fresno Sports and Events, a group led by Ray and Michael Baker, part owners of the Colorado Rockies and Grand Junction Rockies, and Jim Coufos, a prior investor in the High Desert Mavericks, in a transaction that was made official on February 27, 2018.
The Astros declined to renew their player-development contract with Fresno beyond the 2018 season.
On September 18, 2018, the Fresno Grizzlies and Washington Nationals agreed to a player-development contract for the 2019 and 2020 seasons.

About
From the vault.
Taken in Warwick, a long long time ago.
Well, at least one part of the image is from Warwick. The Clouds come from my 'cloud stock library' I've not tried this before, so I thought I'd give it a go, its simple really.
The trick is to use shots taken from a similar angle and shooting conditions etc.
Did you pick it?
Would you know if I didn't tell you?
Enjoy.

- Layer masking using two images.

Music
"Strawberry Fields Forever" is a song by the English rock band The Beatles. Recorded at the end of 1966, the song was written by John Lennon during the filming of How I Won The War and is formally credited to the Lennon/McCartney songwriting team. It is named after a Salvation Army house in Beaconsfield Road, Woolton, Liverpool where Lennon played as a child.
The Flower?
Apparently its is a weed, more info here.
J'ai fait une plongé dans mes photos du Kenya l'année dernière. En voici une d'un jeune lion, le regard fixé sur nous. Il me fait penser à ces héros de film marchant seul après la dernière bataille, vainqueur à jamais marqué.
J'ai peu posté cette dernière année, je me sens très partagée entre les côtés sympas de flickr et ceux moins bons. Je cherche un équilibre.

Taken one early morning on my way to work, I couldn't resist the view as it looked like a sea of gold, this was taken with the compact as the slr is too heavy to log around all day ! An opportunist picture...
The only photoshopped element is the framing, the rest is as it came out of the camera, a very lucky shot !

I made my boyfriend lay down in this empty field near the water on one of the coldest days of the year.
we left shortly after this.
A working estate still guided by the seasons, with an impressive mansion and Home Farm.
The mansion, at the heart of this estate, is evidence of Elsie Bambridge's success in creating a home.
Intimate rooms contrast with beautiful and unexpected Georgian interiors, including Soane's breathtaking Yellow Drawing Room and wonderful plunge bath. The fascinating basement corridor offers a glimpse into life below stairs.
Stroll around the colourful parterre garden and wander through the Pleasure Grounds to the walled garden, abundant with fruit, vegetables and herbaceous borders.
Home Farm contrasts the traditional farmyard with the noisy modern piggery and cattle sheds.
Stride out across the landscape park, among the rare-breed cattle, and imagine the previous owners planning their visions of grand avenues and spectacular vistas. Originally a small deer park surrounded by open fields, Wimpole parkland has changed many times throughout its history. Different owners employed different landscape designers and gardeners, who each left their mark on the landscape.
This 18th century walled garden was constructed by William Eames and features Sir John Soane’s glasshouse. This is where we produce our young plants for the vegetable plots. Last year we delivered in excess of 450kg of produce to our restaurant. We're currently supplying cut flowers to the hall.
Pleasure grounds - In the 18th century these grounds were where the family took evening strolls and enjoyed picnics. They contained many rare, exotic and unusual plants sourced from all over the world. These plants were discovered by plant hunters who travelled the world. Why not wander down our new plant hunter path?

Shot at Phytobotanica, Inglenook Farm near St Helens.
I decided to have my lunchbreak here, as it was a very warm day, nice lunch it was.
To get this shot, I used my 24-70 and decided to go for a narrow depth of field, f2.8 as the background sky was a little lacking, so I thought about a slightly more abstract composition for this
