Only a fool, like fools before me
I always think with my heart
Only a fool
That same old story
Seems I was born for the part
It's a lesson that I've learned
And a page I should have turned
I shouldn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When her ordinary dreams fall through
I took this a while ago while shooting with Amabile. I actually forgot about it and while going through the file it sort of jumped out at me.
This was take at the Birks of Aberfeldy, a truly beautiful walk.

For Macro Mondays - April Fools
No fingers were hurt in the making of this image. Sometimes you just can't believe everything you see.
Happy Macro Monday!
The Spruce Grouse also known as the fool hen is native to coniferous forests throughout North America. I captured this male near the shores of the Lower Kananaskis Lake in Alberta.
This was on the evening of April Fools Day. I thought this was a perfect moon for the biggest pranking day of the year...the way it looks almost full...but isn't..kind of fooling you. I guess you could call it a fool moon ;-)
I know, I know...sorry for the bad pun! Have a wonderful Tuesday, my friends!
Please stop fooling around. Help me with the heap!

After my friend Hanna fooled me with some cookies that looked like round pieces of sausage. I told here these were meatballs but they are peanut butter snack bites.

"The Narrenturm (Fool's Tower) in Vienna is continental Europe's oldest building for the accommodation of psychiatric patients. Built in 1784, it is next to the site of the old Vienna General Hospital, and is now home to the Federal Pathologic-Anatomical Museum Vienna (Pathologisch-anatomisches Bundesmuseum Wien)."

Lyrics translate:
Fool's Lullaby
You should be sleeping a long time ago, my dear sheep,
even the birds finished their song.
The wind has stopped blowing 'cause of us,
only the moth is staring from the outside.
I know her grudge, so try to hide somewhere,
she's wearing a white cloak again and the window is barred.
Chorus:
You should be sleeping a long time ago, my little sheep
and stay warm, you can keep me warm,
however they'll come to inquire,
tomorrow they'll come to inquire me again,
if you are fading away from my imagination.
You should be sleeping a long time ago, my dear sheep,
the dark midnight is here.
Tomorrow they'll scold us-fools,
'cause you like to eat the breakfast with me.
Why should I lie to them, that I'm here alone,
while I love You, while You are here with me.

As I drove along the wetlands in Alviso, I saw this off to the side and thought to myself "That's kind of a strange looking duck".
So I whipped my Jeep off the road and parked, loaded my long lens, got out and started sneaking up on him, shooting as I went along, hoping to get a good shot, but not wanting to scare him off.
I finally realized that he wasn't moving. DOH! Decoy got me.
Can't believe that I'm the fool again
I thought this love would never end,
How was I to know?
You never told me
Can't believe that I'm the fool again,
And I who thought you were my friend
How was I to know !
Called the man a fool, striped him of his pride
Everyone was laughing up until the day he died
And though the wound went deep
Still he's calling us out of our sleep
My friends, we're not alone
He waits in silence to lead us all home
I know it's April Fools Day but this is a real photo of a real sign in a real store window in Manhattan's Meat Packing District, NYC, photographed with my Olympus E-M1.

Another image of the Mersey Gateway Bridge from my recent wanderings around Spike Island in Widnes. Apparently the Stone Roses played an historic gig here over 30 years ago following the release of Fool's Gold, with an audience of over 27,000 people.
