Posh Bear, Bertie and Sky sat on the sofa all looking rather warm for it was another hot day, and especially hot wearing all their fur.
“Are you going out with the man today, Sky? I think he is going out on that thingy with two wheels.” Asked Bertie.
“No, I’m giving it a rest today, Bertie. It was too hot yesterday to go out and I should have known better.”
“I did tell you Sky, but as usual you didn’t listen.” Said Posh Bear.
“I know that Posh, and I did listen but I thought if he was going to the shop, I could add a few jars of honey to what he was buying that I could share around.”
“That was very thoughtful of you, Sky.” Said Bertie. “Has anyone seen Icecap recently?”
“Yes, he is in his cold place and refuses to come out until it is cooler.” Said Sky.
“I don’t blame him; he is in the right place for a polar bear.” Said Posh Bear.
“Posh I have been wondering, I know that hoomans do daft things, but why do some go around wearing windows on their noses?” Asked Sky.
“I don’t know for sure, Sky, but I think it because some like to look out of the windows.”
“Well, yes, I did kind of gather that much myself. I just thought I must be wrong when I saw the man wearing windows but they had dark glass in them and I couldn’t see how that would enable him to see through the windows.”
“Dark glass, you say Sky? Was it dark both sides though?” Asked Bertie.
“You mean, it could have been dark on the outside looking in and clear on the inside looking out, Bertie?”
“Yes, that is what I am guessing, Sky.”
“Could be Bertie, maybe it is instead of like the net curtains that are in house windows so people can’t stare in?” Suggested Sky.
“Yes, that is a possibility, Sky. I don’t suppose you noticed if he also had nice flowery curtains on these windows too Sky?”
“I don’t think so, Bertie, but then maybe he hadn’t got around to fixing them in place. There were several people wearing similar windows that were dark and none of them had any other curtains fixed in place.”
“It could have been a special commemorative day for hoomans that want to hide their eyes. Hoomans have a lot of those special days I have noticed.” Said Bertie rubbing a paw through his fur”
“Yes, yes you might be right Bertie. I did see some that also wore masks but they weren’t doing too well.” Added Sky still in deep thought.
“Why was that Sky?”
“I think they were steaming up their windows so with them being dark glass and then steamy, they couldn’t see anything, so bumped into things and other hoomans, especially when they were in shops.”
“It is so difficult to understand them sometimes.” Said Posh and all three bears gave a deep sigh and nodded their heads in agreement.

You can just make out the lips of a woman in the rear of the bus frame left, just below the small 'Gala' sign.

Pink paeony petals. Yep :)
This is derived from exactly the same image as last week, but with a different endpoint. It treads a well-trodden path for me though in this case I used a different way of producing the symmetry.
Oh, and it’s for Sliders Sunday in case you hadn’t guessed :)
First I developed the image in Affinity Photo to a passable rendition of the flower (effectively a plainer version of last week’s).
The symmetry was achieved very simply: duplicated the layer and then flipped it horizontally and blended the upper copy with Darken. Merged the two layers and repeated the performance but flipping vertically. And there we go: four-way symmetry.
[At this stage it is already a fun image. If you want to have a go do feel free to download the original and have a play yourself: it doesn't take long and can do it in Photoshop or Affinity. I suggest you try changing the colours and contrast a bit and see what happens...]
Then the pretty bit. Into Topaz Studio using the Glow filter and starting with the Contrast Cables preset. Quite a lot of fun and tweaking from there, and looking at it I must have played with hue shifting too.
Finally back into Affinity with a dark vignette and a slight tweaking of the brightness and contrast. The usual frame method of merging what we have so far, expanding the canvas by 100 pixels, placing a white fill layer underneath the merged layer; then adding a shadow and a 1-pixel black outline using layer fx.
I’ll post a link to the in-camera original in the first comment so you can see how far we meandered...
I rather liked the stained glass window effect...
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday :)
Der Eichelhäher legt das ganze Jahr über Depots aus überschüssiger Nahrung an. Mit dem gezielten Sammeln von Eicheln und anderen Nussfrüchten beginnt er aber erst zu deren Reife im August, was bis in den frühen Winter, bisweilen auch bis ins nächste Frühjahr anhalten kann. Auf dem Höhepunkt im Oktober verbringt der Vogel oft 10 bis 11 Stunden täglich mit dem Sammeln.(wiki)
I'm so lucky to have these daily visitors to my feeders. From my spare room, through the double glazing as usual.

Or, to be more precise, *completely* glazed north and south sides of the tower used for testing the lightbulbs in the lightbulb factory, TEŽ, in Zagreb, Croatia.

One of the most remarkable achievements of Gaudi in the Sacrada Familia is how he used light so effectively as part of the design. The light inside warms and cools through the day as different windows catch the sun, all the time creating a flowing transition that follows the day outside.
I wish I could truly capture the organic, natural effect he created better. The building looks as much grown as it does built.

Thought I'd try a minimalist comp on a waterfall. If your screens to bright this image will look like shit, I had to really push the shadows and highlights to get the effect I wanted.
CC more than welcomed on this, I've never tried it before.
Our Daily Challenge 12-18 November : Glazing
From my student potter days.
We were influenced by the visit of the famous Japanese potter Shoji Hamada.
It is much harder than you might think to make a hand thrown teapot. as the spout is inclined to untwist in the firing so you have to compensate for that when attaching it!
The lovely glaze on this was made with some beech ash from my lounge fire.
