Some of these oak trees date back to the 15th century when they were planted as meadowland for the nearby castle.
This is for my sister B. jeweled, who's been waiting patiently for several days - maybe a week, or longer? - for me to post a watercolor-type shot. I told her about a new program I bought - aquarella (from jixipix) - and what cool effects it had. But you know how it is - you do a couple of shots at 11:00 at night, and go to bed really liking them. Then you get up and see them in the morning, and realize they need more work (or you just trash them). I'm not totally satisfied with this shot, but I'm kinda tired of working on it, so here it is. I think part of my problem is that I tend to like saturated colors, but watercolor effects are probably better done with a lighter touch. I know from other post processing that you need to start with the right kind of photo, too, and maybe this isn't one. I don't have the feel for reliably guessing which photos might work with aquarella yet, definitely need more practice. Anyway, I'm sure you'll be seeing more of my attempts in the future.
I do want to thank my long-time contact, forestlady, for telling me about aquarella. She does fabulous painterly work, mostly with apps that don't work on my desktop. I never thought to look for other watercolor programs until she suggested it. Aquarella, of course, has pros and cons, and I'm not sure how much I like it yet. But at only $9.99, it's worth a tryout for me. the original shot is in the first comment box if you want to see it.
It is easy to remember negative experiences because evolutionary this is a fundamental skill to avoid potential dangers. Though it is still necessary to keep an eye on yourself, the threatening situations have shifted ever since.
Since these thoughts do not bear much happiness, shifting focus to the strong memories of unexpected encounters will pay with a high reward. They sweeten life. And though that day, so much went mess, this unexpected encounter still leaves me stunned and brightens up my day.
Historically, Sanatorium Lake was purpose built to provide a water source to a hospital specialising in the treatment of tuberculosis, which was never built. Now the lake is a beautiful setting for a number of self-guided walking and horse-riding trails.
I recently visited family in Norfolk and while down there, I went for a walk just outside Cromer where I saw this scene. I didn't have my DSLR with me, but I managed to get this on my phone
Hallo meine Freunde, heute mal keine Landschaft sondern etwas kleines. Wie ich mit Hundi unterwegs war entdeckte ich dies Pilze auf dem kleinen Baumstamm. Da konnte ich nicht wiederstehen....

This is a forgotten piece I found on my old PC.(Laptop yet to get back and connection too slow). I thought those of my friends who loves Kerala's green Forests would love it..This is taken on our trip to Munnar(South India) from Coimbatore through a Forest Road via Marayoor for the thrill of it.. Marayoor is famous for its Sandalwood plantions. It is Government Reserve forest where Sandalwood Trees are also planted by Govt. for commercial purpose. The trees on the left are actually Sandalwood trees..
The Neelakurinji flowers, famous for its rare bloom in every twelve years (without fail) is also abundant here.When it blooms the entire hill slopes turns blue..Next blooming is in 2018 !!

( This photo have no edits, or touches , straight from the camera.Yeah, It is true Kerala is God's own country; requires no edits...Hope you may like it)
