This very large bumble bee had just come out from inside this Day lily after gathering the nectar to take back to its hive so the colon can grow and reproduce. But it is also covered in pollen. The next day lily this bee would land on to search for more nectar would finish the work and pollenate the flower and start the cycle over for the next years flowers and bees!
A simple transaction that benefits both the bees and the flowers.

Forward is an 1893 bronze statue by American sculptor Jean Pond Miner Coburn (1866–1967) depicting an embodiment of Wisconsin's "Forward" motto. The 1996 replica was located at the Wisconsin State Capitol grounds at the top of State Street before it was vandalized in 2020. The statue often is misidentified with the Wisconsin statue on top of the Capitol dome.
Marie found me at the Ventura County fair about 4 years ago when I entered and won some prizes. She saw my name on there and contacted me on Myspace. Said she loved my work, and said if she ever got married… I’d be the one. Cool. Fast forward a few years, she meets Mike at work… cute couple… then the Facebook relationship status change… a few minutes later… I get a message. I love it when people remember me. We rescheduled our engagement shoot many times due to many reasons. And this Sunday almost didn’t happen because its been SO hot out. Did it anyway, and we were blessed with an amazing sunset. They’re a gorgeous, spunky couple and I know their wedding next year on a yacht in Orange County will be just as amazing.
I cannot make up my mind whether this is a Trip Down Memory Lane or a What is this?
This is something for you to look at and take a guess as to what it is!
For some people this will be as easy as pie, others might have to phone a friend..... Good luck!
Your correct, wild, imaginative, out of the box and out of this world guesses are being looked forward to. 😁
Post as many guesses as you like!
As usual the answer will be posted in a few days' time. Enjoy!

Time flies, and it's so surreal that It's two months already since I held the long awaited wood anemones, on our long awaited western Norway road trip during Easter. But still I only have edited a few of the nice photos I got on the trip, due to many other photography assignments this spring.
And in only 2.5 weeks we are on our next road trip already - to the northernmost parts of Norway, that I've looked forward to for even longer. I'm thankful for all the chances I get to photograph and travel during spring and summer!

Even if reluctantly, we still must anticipate the coming of Autumn and the reality that Winter is just around the corner.
I know that I've lamented the cold and short duration of this last Summer, so I won't beat that point into the ground and will instead anticipate the golds and red's of Autumn and will hope that this year's leaves will be brilliant.
I just read an article this morning about the ten best places for Fall Color's and the Columbia River Gorge, rightfully so, was included in the list. The link can be found HERE. The article also features a great photo by my awesome Flickr friend Sarah. : )
And so in that spirit, I post a shot from last Autumn taken along Still Creek near my home here near Mount Hood.
Enjoy your Sunday my friends. : )

wish you a wonderful new week :)
2005 Chandra observations revealed new details about the fiery ring surrounding the stellar explosion that produced Supernova 1987A. The data give insight into the behavior of the doomed star in the years before it exploded, and indicate that the predicted spectacular brightening of the circumstellar ring has begun.
Supernova 1987A occurred in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a galaxy only 160,000 light years from Earth. The outburst was visible to the naked eye, and is the brightest known supernova in almost 400 years. Optical hot-spots (pink-white) now encircle the ring like a necklace of incandescent diamonds. The Chandra data (blue-purple) reveals multimillion-degree gas at the location of the optical hot-spots.

No, I am not talking about the walk of this worker. I am talking about the life of them, born > work hard-harder-hardest > die :(
How unlucky they are :( ...
Taken with my wide angle, could only fit two out of three so stitched them together to give the view I had.

Where are are heading from? Where are we heading to?
That's up to your imagination.
何処からやって来たのだろうか…
何処へ向かってゆくのだろうか…
At least that's what I imagine this little crocus is saying.
Apologies for being behind after a busy weekend, look forward to catching up now.
With 66027 sat in Meadowhall station , the 1Y17 0905 Leeds - Nottingham has just joined the main line from Wincobank Junction.
Weekend engineering work at Holmes Junction meant all traffic was diverted via the Barnsley line and rejoining the main line to the left of the picture.
66027 is working the 1000 6T61 Holmes Junction - Toton.

I spent the evening photographing this gorgeous girl in the freezing cold. A lot has happened this year that I never expected to happen. My life is going through a lot of changes but I'm learning to accept it all, be happy, and just keep moving forward. I'll be starting a new series soon that I'll talk about in one of my next few uploads. I hope everyone is doing well. ♥
Four years, seven months and ten days after the armistice ending the Human-Covenant War.
I need to finish this before continuing with Halo 5. Wow, do I have a backlog of titles to finish.
Last weekend I was fortunate enough to be able to visit Brickfair Virginia at the Dulles Expo near Washington DC. This event was one of the reasons why I rebuilt my Tomcats earlier this year, because I wanted to display one of them there. I got lots of great comments, was able to show off the swing wings to many people and it ended up winning 'Best Aircraft', which was very cool.
I had a great time looking at the creations, meeting all the friendly builders and fans and hanging out with the military builders and my friends. I am already looking forward to going again at some point in the future.
