. . . I have noticed a big drop off in the number of Hummingbirds this week, and so the feeders have come in. We have a lot of red flowers for any late migrating birds coming through yet. So until Mother's Day 2020, Bon Voyage little friends . . . !
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
We had to say goodbye to our dear Bruno on Friday. We are heartbroken, he was the sweetest, most gentle soul. We feel privileged to have been his people for the last three and a half years.
I love this photo of him because it reminds me of how much he loved his comfy new bed. When we adopted him we were told he didn't sleep in a bed, he is happy on the floor. I think all dogs need a bed and their space so we bought him this lovely big plush bed and as you can see he loved it.
We made sure our dear boy had the best possible last day and we have so many wonderful memories.
If you would like to see more photos of this gorgeous boy, here is a link to Bruno's album www.flickr.com/photos/28992287@N03/albums/72157683596504312
Everybody knows that Goodbye may hurts a lot and it can bring tears with good or bad memories. But now GoodBye is a must so GOODBYE :-)
I hope that everyone likes it ;-D
An image from around two weeks back now where the light was just playing ball and the sunrays providing that little bit of glory to the scene. I have photographed a few fallen trees over the years, they provide a scene which I do feel at times is a sad one, but much more devastating is when they have been cut down in there prime. This one was storm damage although it is hard to tell as the root system is out of shot, but it was still a wonderful feature with the mist and suns rays falling all over it.
It was also the scene I chased, and I had my fall where my Nikon got damaged, me flying and cussing was quite funny but also very frustrating, I was realizing setting up my composition here that my camera was having real problems with the focus and was switching off all the time.
So, this is a goodbye image really, one to the tree as I am sure it won’t be long before someone or something will come and drag it away and cut it up. And it’s a goodbye to my first camera of which I am more upset about, not because of the expense or inconvenience, but it was my first and we have together experienced and seen so much in five years. It never once let me down and was an excellent companion to start me on my photography journey. Goodbye Nikon Z6 you were excellent, just hope you can be fixed and not also get chopped up into little bits. Now I’m off to drink a small wine and mellow with happy thoughts of future adventures ahead with a new companion.
Welcome to the first large snowfall of the season. The lake effect snow machine kicked into action over Niagara today. We are expecting 8-12 inches or 20-30cm. It is a drop in the bucket though compared to nearby Buffalo. Some areas there received over 70 inches of snow yesterday!

Thank you very much everyone for visiting and enjoying the photo, I will reply to everyone as soon as possible.
I reassure the visitors about my photographic equipment, I use digital or analog cameras, filters, neutrals, UV and polarizers, or other self-made gadgets to achieve the effects imagined before the shot.
I also have a tripod, actually more than one, which I use when needed.
I accept any suggestion or constructive criticism, if my images are oscure in meaning, or lack something, feel free to write it in the comments.
Thanks again for your attention ^_^
Celoe and Mon Tissu are closing - and so is the beautiful Mayfair sim. Celoe is having a sale and most items are at least half the marked price. The stores and Mayfair sim are closing on May 5th, so hurry over to say your goodbyes.
I'm wearing hair from Magika, a coat dress from Celoe and one of the Lelutka mesh heads - I think this one is 'Stella'. First mesh head I've *really* loved! ♥
Not exactly the last sunset of the year as I had planned, but I don't think we are going to get any colour in the sky tonight so this will have to do.
Many thanks to Karen and Missy2004 (sorry I have no idea how to tag you here) for the admin and prompts for this group. I have enjoyed taking part and am looking forward to 123 in 2023!
122/122 pictures in 2022: Goodbye!
Goodbye my dear sweet friend. You have taught me so much in just a year...to be brave, to be strong, to smile in the face of tomorrows that you knew where to come to end. God bless you and may you now be at peace.
Wishing all my flickr friends a healthy and happy New Year.
and thanking you for all your loyal support throughout 2018.
Will endeavour to start posting again now the festive season
is over.
The last photo from the open-air-museum in Radom. Time to go back :)
The Museum of the Radom Village was established in the 1970s and is located about 8 km. south-west of the center of Radom. Currently, the open-air museum covers an area of 32.5 hectares, on which 80 objects of former rural construction (cottages, mansions, churches, farm buildings, blacksmiths, windmills and water mills) are put together. In the museum we have several zones (complexes of objects). Among them, there is a rural complex, which includes, among others farms, barn, pottery kiln or fire station. There is also the manor complex with several mansions, a chapel, a forge and a chicken coop. You can also visit the church complex and the windmill. The Museum of the Radom Village collects, scientifically elaborates and preserves the objects of folk architecture and everyday objects characteristic of the region. The museum prepares permanent and temporary exhibitions for visitors. Permanent exhibitions present the interiors of rural buildings equipped with items used by the inhabitants of the village. One of exhibitions concerns agricultural machinery and presents a variety of agricultural equipment and a huge number of different tractors and other exhibition is devoted to beekeeping. There you will find a variety of hives and tools used in apiaries. The interior design and surroundings of historic buildings change with the rhythm of church holidays, field works and the seasons of the year.

Ostatnie zdjęcie ze skansenu w Radomiu. Wracamy już z wycieczki :)
Muzeum Wsi Radomskiej powstało w latach 70-tych XX wieku i zlokalizowane jest ok. 8 km. na południowy-zachód od centrum Radomia. Obecnie skansen zajmuje obszar o powierzchni 32,5 ha, na którym zestawiono 80 obiektów dawnego budownictwa wiejskiego (chałupy, dwory, kościół, budynki gospodarcze, kuźnie, wiatraki i młyny wodne). W muzeum jest kilka stref (zespołów obiektów). Wśród nich znajduje się zespół wiejski, w którego skład wchodzą m.in. zagrody, stodoła, piec garncarski czy remiza. Jest też zespół dworski, w którym znajduje się kilka dworów, kaplica, kuźnia oraz kurnik, jak również zespół sakralny oraz wiatrakowy. Muzeum Wsi Radomskiej gromadzi, opracowuje naukowo i konserwuje charakterystyczne dla regionu obiekty architektury ludowej oraz przedmioty codziennego użytku. Muzeum przygotowuje dla zwiedzających wystawy stałe i czasowe. Ekspozycje stałe prezentują wnętrza wiejskich budynków wyposażone w przedmioty używane przez mieszkańców wsi. Jedna z wystaw dotyczy maszyn rolniczych i prezentowane są na niej różnorodne urządzenia do pracy na roli i ogromna ilość różnych traktorów, zaś inna wystawa poświęcona jest pszczelarstwu. Znajdują się tam różnorodne ule i narzędzia używane w pasiekach. Wystrój wnętrz i otoczenie zabytkowych budynków zmienia się wraz z rytmem świąt kościelnych, prac polowych oraz pór roku.
You were one cold and rainy month. May august outshine you in both sunlight and warmth. Cold month here in Sweden. I don't know how things is were you live.
Well it's goodbye for now at least
As things have turned out we would couldn't have gone to see them anymore anyway
Normally our attentions would now turn to spring and the summer arrivals... Osprey's., Puffin's etc.
Unfortunately the dark clouds of winter have been replaced by an even darker cloud and all I can say is good luck to us all
This photo I took from the road when we were already goung back from vacation. It was our last look on the sea :)
Zdjęcie robione w dniu naszego wyjazdu z Chorwacji, takie ostatnie spojrzenie na morze z pobocza drogi :)

"Goodbye Roger" - Following our discussion on topics of his adventures and philosophical meanderings, I agreed on a short portrait shot to bind our newly found friendship. He wears a few scars including having lost a lenslet on his eye. He still has the will to smile. We then parted ways. I think I came to understand that my life has been a bit more privileged.
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
Promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue
Sky?
Taken at War
Goodbye 2025 (austral) summer. Despite some important personal challenges, i really enjoyed this season and specially when i was outside Santiago, first in El Tabo and second, in northern Chile like this picture taken at the shoreline of Tongoy, a coastal town placed 50 Kms. south of Coquimbo, in the same region.
Adiós al Verano (austral) 2025. A pesar de importantes desafíos personales, haciendo un pequeño balance creo que dentro de todo también hubo buenos momentos, tanto en Enero en El Tabo como en Febrero allá en el norte chico de Chile como se puede apreciar en esta foto tomada en Tongoy, pueblo costero ubicado a 50 Kms al sur de la ciudad portuaria de Coquimbo.
We already go back after visiting the Predjama Castle :)
Predjama Castle is a Renaissance castle built under a vertical rock over a hundred meters high, within a cave mouth in south-central Slovenia, in the historical region of Inner Carniola. It is located in the village of Predjama and the largest cave castle in the world. The castle was originally built into a large cave in the 12th century, covering its entrance. Its traces are visible deep inside the cave and they are part of the some castle rooms. Later - around 1570 - the castle was expanded to its current form. The parts of the cave used by the castle are connected to an extensive system of cave corridors, most of which are located below the castle. In times of threat from external invasions, the local population took refuge there with their property and livestock. The cave under the castle was created as a result of the waters of the Lokva River flowing towards the Adriatic Sea and it's the home of a colony of bats. Part of the cave is "dead", which means that no further karst phenomena are progressing in it, which is the result of human activity - the use of these parts of the cave for residential and storage purposes, as well as the digging of passages, tunnels, shafts and adits between them. Currently, the castle, together with a several hundred-meter section of the cave, is open to tourists and can be visited with a guide.

Zwiedziliśmy zamek Predjamski Grad, więc czas wracać :)
Predjamski Grad – czteropiętrowy zamek we wsi Predjama, w gminie Postojna w Słowenii, wzniesiony pod ponadstumetrową pionową skałą wchodzącą w skład wyżyn słoweńskiego Krasu, uznawany za największy zamek jaskiniowy na świecie. Pierwotnie, w XII wieku, zamek wbudowany był w obszerną jaskinię, zakrywając jej wejście. Jego ślady widoczne są w głębi jaskini i wchodzą w skład niektórych zamkowych pomieszczeń. Później – około roku 1570 – zamek został rozbudowany do obecnego kształtu. Partie jaskini wykorzystywane przez zamek mają połączenie z rozległym systemem korytarzy jaskiniowych, które położone są w większości poniżej zamku. W chwilach zagrożenia zewnętrznymi najazdami chroniła się tam okoliczna ludność wraz ze swoim dobytkiem i inwentarzem. Jaskinia pod zamkiem powstała w wyniku działania wód rzeki Lokva płynących w stronę Adriatyku i jest zamieszkiwana przez kolonie nietoperzy. Część jaskini jest „martwa”, tzn. nie postępują w niej już dalsze zjawiska krasowe, co jest skutkiem m.in. działalności człowieka – wykorzystywania tych partii jaskini do celów mieszkalnych i magazynowych, a także drążenia pomiędzy nimi przejść, tuneli, szybów i sztolni. Obecnie zamek wraz z parusetmetrowym odcinkiem jaskini jest otwarty dla turystów i można go zwiedzać pod opieką przewodnika.
