“I will be generous with my love today. I will sprinkle compliments and uplifting words everywhere I go. I will do this knowing that my words are like seeds and when they fall on fertile soil, a reflection of those seeds will grow into something greater.”
— Steve Maraboli

If you‘re into older lenses it seems to be a good idea to not give up on them too quickly and grant them a second or third chance… they might surprise you! This lens came, quite beaten and somewhat strange looking, and when it didn’t shine during the first testshots, I put it down, thinking it just might not be worth the effort. But because it‘s part of an upcoming article I‘m working on, I decided to use it a bit more in order to get a more consistent impression. Glad to admit my initial impression seems to have been completely wrong. It turned out to be a very interesting, capable and unique little lens.
Maybe it would be a good idea to extend that generosity to fellow humans as well… but what do I know about them? 😅

How generous you are, Earth,
and how strong is your yearning for your children
lost between that which they have attained
and that which they could not obtain.
We clamor and you smile; we flit but you stay!
We extract your elements to make cannons and bombs,
but out of our elements you create lilies and roses.

Gothenburg is the second-largest city in Sweden. It is situated by Kattegatt on the west coast of Sweden, and has a population of approximately 570,000.
Gothenburg was founded as a heavily fortified, primarily Dutch, trading colony in 1621. In addition to the generous privileges (e.g. tax relaxation) given to his Dutch allies from the then-ongoing Thirty Years`War, the king also attracted significant numbers of his German and Scottish allies to populate his only town on the western coast. At a key strategic location at the mouth of the river Göta älv, where Scandinavia's largest drainage basin enters the sea, the Port of Gothenburg is now the largest port in the Nordic countries
Gothenburg is home to many students, as the city includes the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology. Volvo was founded in Gothenburg in 1927. Other key companies are SKF and Astra Zeneca.
Generosity: the virtue of giving without expecting anything in return.
Happy Smile on Saturday

I am strong in his hands
I am beyond me
On my own I'm human
And I do faults
I do confess
I feel you trickling
Down my shoulders
From above
I turn myself in
I give myself up
Volunteer
You own me : I'm yours
You have to trust it
I'm eternally yours
All that I gave them
I gave to you
So needy of comfort
But too raw to be embraced
Undo this privacy
And put me in my place
Generous palm stroke
The hugest of hugs
Undo this privacy
Embrace
I am strong in his hands
I am above
Way beyond me

She is beyond her
On her own she is human

The Danube river at Djerdap national park in Serbia, the Romanian side is across the river. It's a relatively short hike to get there, I was the first one at the viewpoint that weekend morning, I didn't see anybody walking up, but saw close to a thousand people on the way down.

It is a truly magnificent thing, a testament to the generosity and kindness that exists within us all. When we give to others, we are not only helping them, but we are also helping ourselves. There is a certain sense of satisfaction that comes with knowing that you have made a positive impact on someone else's life.
Supporting each other is equally beautiful. When we offer our support to others, we are letting them know that they are not alone. We are telling them that we are here for them, no matter what. This can be an incredibly powerful message, especially during times of difficulty and struggle.
To all of those who practice giving and supporting each other in their everyday lives, I extend my heartfelt thanks. Your kindness and compassion are truly inspiring. Your actions remind us all of the goodness that exists in the world, and they serve as a reminder of what we can achieve when we work together.
So here's to all of the givers and supporters out there. You are making the world a better place, one act of kindness at a time. Thank you for all that you do!

Richard Tatti generously provided some NEF files to download nd follow along with his edit in a recent YouTube video: www.nightscapeimages.com.au/workshops---online.html
With travel restrictions in place (and thunderstorms anyway) I thought I would have a go. I set out with the intention of creating a different shot to Richard rather than trying to re-create it, which is not to say I don't like his original! In fact I probably would not normally edit this shot in the same way if it were mine! Richard used a Nikon Z6 and 20mm f/1.8 S lens, 9 sky shots and 3 light painted foreground shots. I used Sequator to stack the sky images (as per the video) and Photoshop to combine the result with 2 of the 3 foreground light painted shots.
Pain is a strict teacher.
Stillness a generous principal,
and you are always a student

These gorgeous handmade ornaments were given me by a generous, grand and artistic friend! Though there are 4 photos, two of them are a view of the same ornament. These three glorious creations are on the Christmas tree at Riversong, our Alabama home on the Elk River. The other three are on the Christmas tree at Lagniappe, our home in New Orleans! I couldn't not bear to leave all in New Orleans, and I expect the other three will be coming back here to reside on the big tree for the rest of the holidays! But OH! How we are enjoying them on each tree! Such sparkle to catch the eye, and remind us of those we love!
There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.

Last in the brief series of northern prairie reptiles is the Greater Short-horned Lizard. The only species of lizard found in Saskatchewan and Alberta, it is limited to about ten scattered locations and considered endangered in Canada, mostly due to human intrusion and industrial development (oil and gas). Thankfully, the population in Grasslands Park is fully protected.
I had not seen one for years, so it was very exciting to notice a sudden furtive movement at my feet while walking the rim of a coulee. And there it was!
They're small; this one was about 4 inches in length. Due to its girth, I think it's a female; males are more narrowly built, and tend to be shorter. Once again, I found myself on my belly with the macro lens, trying not to stick myself with nearby cactus thorns, trying to convince a reptile that I was a benign monster and not a predator. Haha, good luck with that! But it did pose nicely for about 100 shots before I left it in peace. Total time spent with this critter (according to EXIF data): 15 minutes.
This is an appropriate day to offer a shot of a lizard, not because it is the 147th anniversary of Custer's well-deserved defeat at the Little Bighorn, but because this morning I am going on a lizard walk with some friends and a local biologist. That's one advantage of living next to a national park: research and conservation projects are ongoing, and I get to meet experts in various scientific disciplines. I might even retain some of the information they so generously share.

After the generous snowfalls last weekend due to the visit of the low pressure system named Monica, the Sierra de Guadarrama looked beautiful on a very sunny day.
This is the view from Madrid, with La Moraleja in the foreground.
The straight line distance from this location to the mountains is approximately 27 miles (44 km).
With temperatures rising over the past few days, much of the snow has already melted, a real boon for our reservoirs, which are currently above 84 percent capacity.

La Sierra de Guadarrama después de las nevadas de la semana pasada, Madrid, España
Después de las generosas nevadas del pasado fin de semana por la visita del sistema de bajas presiones bautizado como Mónica, la Sierra de Guadarrama lucía preciosa en un día muy soleado.
Esta es la vista desde Madrid, con La Moraleja en primer plano.
La distancia en línea recta desde este lugar hasta las montañas es de aproximadamente 44 km.
Con el aumento de las temperaturas durante los últimos días, gran parte de la nieve ya se ha derretido, algo realmente beneficioso para nuestros embalses, que actualmente se encuentran por encima del 84 por ciento de su capacidad.

True belonging is not passive. It's not the belonging that comes with just joining a group. It's not fitting in or pretending or selling out because it's safer. It's a practice that requires us to be vulnerable, get uncomfortable, and learn how to be present with people without sacrificing who we are.
Dr. Brené Brown
Belongingness entails an unwavering commitment to not simply tolerating and respecting difference, but to ensuring that all people are welcome and feel that they belong.
John A. Powell
Today, if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
Mother Theresa, Saint Teresa of Calcutta
The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people don't talk anymore, they don't sit down to talk and listen. They go to the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, update their status on the internet, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather around a fire and tell stories
Paulo Coelho
We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say, ‘It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.
Fred Rogers
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
Winston Churchill
When we choose to wonder about people we don’t know, when we imagine their lives and listen for their stories, we begin to expand the circle of those we see as part of us.

We must remain hopeful that a universal ethic of courage, caring, sharing, respect, radical compassion, and love will make a difference. We can never be too generous or too kind.
Marc Bekoff
I believe that we are here for each other, not against each other. Everything comes from an understanding that you are a gift in my life — whoever you are, whatever our differences.

With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, and stay safe! ❤️❤️❤️
At a fairly generous pace UP 951 leads the passenger special into Fremont on the UP Omaha Sub. The "2017 UP Museum Special", was a fundraising trip for new and enhanced exhibits at the museum in Council Bluffs. It carried passengers on an approximately 164 mile round trip from the Durham Museum at Omaha Union Station to Columbus and back running as UP Train PCBCB1 13.
