I'm flying out of New Zealand tonight after 16 brilliant months. It's pelting it down with rain in Auckland today just like when I landed here. Milford sound was a definite highlight - here's another shot of it.
Hopefully I'll have some time to update my website when I get back from New Zealand
Goodbye Again
John Denver
It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on the rise
There's frosting on the window pane and sorrow in your eyes
The stars are fading quietly, night is nearly gone
And so you turn away from me and tears begin to come
And it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go?
It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm
I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms
I long to kiss the tears away, give you back the smile
Other voices beckon me, and for a little while
Shot this one down at La Perouse this morning while on a shoot with the Focus South Crew. Not the greatest of sunrises, but had a great time out anyhow. Lots of driving today...wrecked now. Hope you like "Goodbye Again"...Cheers, Mike
Charlie is now having his forever nap.
Over the last ten days his health took a turn for the worse. He stopped eating, and getting him to drink was difficult.
He went to the vet a few times; blood was taken to be tested, he was given antibiotics for a minor infection and was also given laxatives since he was really badly blocked up (his hips hadn't been in good condition for a while due to arthritis) and he was prescribed special high energy food.
It was all in vain. His liver was failing him and it seemed like he knew it was time. The other three cats started ignoring him and leaving him alone, which to me was the signal the end was near.
I was with him at the end as he was put to sleep so i could say goodbye.
I loved him so, so much. He was the most wonderful, gentle kitty. I miss him so much already, he was my best little buddy.
Goodbye old friend, i will never ever forget you.
RIP
I took this shot of my best friend Basil a few months ago on my Lubitel 166+ camera, & yesterday I had to call the vet to make the decision to have him put to rest.
At the time of posting, he is still here, but the vet will be visiting in a little while to do the job,
Basil has been an amazing friend & its devastating to me to have to say goodbye. He was a special boy.
Over the last week or two we watched the Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes film series, & last night we watched the last two.
Basil (my friend), liked watching mysteries. Basil Rathbone is also my favourite Sherlock Holmes.
My friend will be missed.

Today was Ellie's last day as part of my pack. She was euthanised at home and went peacefully.
She became blind and deaf, then developed dementia. Last week she was diagnosed with Cushing's Disease for which she had all the symptoms except hairloss. Although she loved her food and short walks she had very little quality of life and it was time.
I hope i you did get a little Impression of this fantastic Greeck island. I tried to make the most of it during my 7 day visit there.
Thanks for all your nice comments and Favs, have a great weekend and enjoy this sunset over Chersonissos Harbor.

It's funny how winter always sweeps in so fast after autumn...
I found myself noticing less and less leaves on the trees as i walked down the same road everyday.
Sometimes i wish time could stop for a while.
I know i shouldn't, but i keep having dreams about you.
It's like you're so close, yet so far away...
Not so long ago I had to rebuild my life. I had gone through some difficult changes and was starting anew. I wanted nothing more than a puppy to join my family and bring some joy back into my life. That’s when Bailey joined us. 7 weeks old, a mischievous boy that brought more happiness, adventure and love to my life than I ever could have hoped for. His intelligence and intuition was astounding and I can’t tell you how many times I was amazed by him. He was a guard dog, a faithful friend and guardian for my children, a leader to my other dogs and the most compassionate friend to me whenever I was going through dark times. He helped me to heal, and find my way. That being said he was hardly a saint; he was stubborn, independent and a few times even resorted to aggression. He taught me to be a better owner, yep, he trained me. He used to smile, he’d bring his head up in a toothy grin and sometimes he brought his upper lip up so much it made him sneeze. He had many fun silly moments. He had several brushes with death, the first time at just year old. He contracted leptospirosis while swimming, even though vaccinated against it. For a week I waited not for a recovery but for him to slip away from us. To my surprise, one morning he found the strength to greet me with a warm smile and a weak tail wag. Another time he darted across a busy street being narrowly missed by more than one car. He stood defiantly at the other side of the street looking back at me. A couple years ago, already a senior dog, he jumped into a river with a strong current, it took him, and I watched him go underwater. I ran along the side of the river screaming for him, I lost sight of him and when Id given up hope and thought he had drowned, I found him curled up cold and trembling guarding our possessions that we had abandoned to go in search of him. I wrapped him in a warm embrace so happy to see him, and in return he offered me a low growl to piss off and give him some space. Bailey had a challenging 2020, like most of us. He had 2 surgeries following a dog fight, got a severe infection from a hot spot which almost claimed his life, but somehow the old boy managed to recover. He’s always been a fighter, proving it time and again. Unfortunately his physical health declined rapidly losing muscle mass and dexterity in his hind quarters. It caused him extreme pain to get up and walk, and even then he refused to give up. When his pain medication failed to give him any comfort, I made the difficult decision to end his suffering. I am grateful to know that Bailey was smart enough to know how much he was loved, and now equally missed by many. What I wouldn’t give to spend one more day with him in his youth, loving life, swimming, prancing gracefully though the long grass and picking low hanging apples from the trees. Goodbye to my very dearest friend. Thank you so much for 13 wonderful years. Oct 3 2007-January 21 2021

Two hearts broken. One leaving and one staying. The goodbye kiss was important to both of them. Although they would not be together physically, their hearts would be forever.
The last photo from Kamiros. We are already leaving this interesting ancient ruins. This shot was taken from the lower part of the ruins towards the hill (from which was taken previous photo). At the left you can see the walls which are remains of old residential houses :)
Kamiros or Camirus was a city of ancient Rhodes, in the Dodecanese, Greece. Its site is on the northwest coast of the island. The ancient city was built on three levels. At the top of the hill was the acropolis, with the temple complex of Athena Kameiras and the stoa. The stoa consisted of two rows of Doric columns with rooms for shops or lodgings in the rear. From the top of the acropolis, there is a beautiful view of the sea and the island. The main settlement was on the middle terrace, consisting of a grid of parallel streets and residential blocks. On the lower terrace are found a Doric temple, probably to Apollo; the Fountain House, with the Agora in front of it; and Peribolos of the Altars, which contained dedications to various deities. During the prehistoric period the area was inhabited by Mycenaean Greeks. The city itself was founded by the Dorians. The temple foundations were begun at least as early as the eighth century BC. The earthquake of 226 BC destroyed the city and the temple. The earthquake of 142 AD destroyed the city for the second time. The Acropolis was excavated by Alfred Biliotti and Auguste Salzmann between 1852 and 1864. Many of the finds from their digs are now kept in the British Museum in London. In 1928 the Italian Archaeological School began a systematic excavation of the area together with restoration work which continued until the end of the Second World War.

Ostatnie zdjęcie z Kamiros i powoli opuszczamy już te ciekawe starożytne ruiny. Zdjęcie robione jest w dolnej części dawnego miasta, w kierunku wzgórza, z którego robiłam poprzednią fotkę. Po lewej widoczne ruiny dawnych domów mieszkalnych :)
Kamiros (Kameiros) - starożytne miasto położone na północno-zachodnim wybrzeżu wyspy. Kamiros jest ostatnim obok Ialyssos i Lindos miastem, które wchodziło w skład potężnych miast-państw starożytnego Rodos. Słynęło przede wszystkim z wysoko cenionych rzemieślników. Reszta mieszkańców trudniła się rolnictwem i hodowlą. Często Kamiros nazywane jest greckimi Pompejami, a to dlatego, że domniema się, iż zostało zniszczone w wyniku potężnego trzęsienia ziemi, mającego miejsce w 142 r. p.n.e. Dawne miasteczko odkopano i odnaleziono w 1859 roku. Jednak jako jedyne do dnia dzisiejszego nie podniosło się z gruzów. Początki istnienia osady w tym miejscu sięgają XVI - XV w. p.n.e. Jednak samo miasto założyli Dorowie. Najbardziej zyskało na znaczeniu, gdy weszło w skład Heksapolis (dorycki związek sześciu miast). Starożytne Kamiros zostało zbudowane na trzech poziomach. Na szczycie wzgórza, rozciągającego się na wysokości 122 m n.p.m., znajdował się akropol ze świątynią Ateny, na środkowym tarasie domy mieszkalne, najniżej czworoboczna agora, świątynie i ołtarze. Do dziś można zobaczyć tu oryginalny układ fundamentów domostw, ruiny świątyni Pallas Ateny, wielką cysternę, która zaopatrywała mieszkańców w wodę, łaźnie, oraz pozostałości wodociągów. Ze szczytu akropolu rozciąga się przepiękna panorama na morze jak i wyspę.

Yesterday, near midnight, the 2019 - 2021 austral summer ended. As everybody knows, i love the summer with a high enthusiasm and i expect that the starting autumn will be a fascinating season in terms of pictures, landscapes and other stuff. But some important challenges are aproaching, like the current events relationed to the Covid - 19 / Coronavirus outbreak, that in my country will mean important actions for protect everyone of the citizens. With a de facto Quanrantine in my city (i´m expecting that the national Gov´t declare a total quarantine for the next hours or in the weekend), pictures taken outside will take a time for be shooted again, but as the life remains, i´ll use all my archive for show the beauty of my country.
United we fight this emergency. Stay at home!
