I was driving along a country road when I came upon a line of sunflowers. Unfortunately, it was one of those times that I did not have my camera with me. Fortunately, I did have my iPad!
The second part, or, left panel of the diptych relating the ancient Greek myth of Persephone and her descent into Hades for half of the year, which results, according to the story, in the occurrence of Fall and Winter on the surface of the world.
Here Persephone, unseen in the image but directly connected when the two images are seen side by side, is greeted as she descends into Hades.
I had been wanting, at the time these images were taken to take the "pano-sabotage" technique into the realm of faces. These mannequins gave me the raw material to do that.

On one of the hottest days we had this spring, I saw this Great Blue Heron going through some actions attributed to "thermo-regulation".
This series shows how they do this, termed "sunning" by some research.
It was said that they will fan their wings wide open and drop their "shoulders' cupping the wings to accomplish this ... to maintain their body temp and even allow for cooling or other possible benefits. They and many larger birds also will pant, where they open their beak and flutter the throat and neck muscles as shown in the 3rd pic to maximize air flow to help drop their internal temperature.

While we were visiting the St. Ignatius Mission, we were befriended by this dog. He tried to get in our car as we were leaving. Don’t blame him because it was snowing as you can tell if you look closely at the photo.
He is out working frequently these days
You can see he is quite exhausted, obviously not easy to find the ones that has behaved nicely this year
The northern end of Jackson Lake greets visitors who enter the Grand Tetons from the north. On this day we began to see the autumn color a few miles up the road. We rounded a curve in the highway and suddenly we were confronted by this enchanting view. It was enough to fill my eyes with tears and definitely resulted in a rapid turn out for photos. I'm a sentimental old fool.
Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming
No cable car to reach this one. This hike was a real lung buster, my left lung is still up there I think. 🤔
I had an early start on Sunday and meet with fellow togs Andy & Pete to capture the sunrise at the Old Mill at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. The conditions were far from perfect with no clouds, the water was a bit low and a cold easterly breeze blowing but we were greeted with some pre-sunrise glow in the sky which soon disappeared!
For those that are interested the Old Mill was built around 1730. The mill was derelict in 1934 but by 1939 it had been converted to residential accommodation and hence my title for the image!

Because this gorgeous cat (Wilson) lives across the street from me, I've had the opportunity to see him interact with numerous passersby. His markings have a beautiful "airbrushed" quality.
Firescald Creek enters Savage Gulf across Greeter Falls and a few hundred yards downstream empties into Big Creek, one of three gorges that link to form a wide, steep valley that came to be known as Savage Gulf. The “Savage” part of the name is not necessarily meant to be descriptive but rather gets that moniker in honor of Samuel Savage, an early settler in the area. The “Gulf” part of the name is not necessarily meant to be confusing but rather is just a local term for “gorge”. Dedicated in 1974, the Savage Gulf State Natural Area is a 15,600 acre scenic wilderness with 55 miles of trails but no roads into the gulch. It also contains 500 acres of some of the finest virgin hardwood forest in the eastern United States, and is listed on the U.S. Registry of National Natural Landmarks.
Greeter Falls has two stages. This 15 foot drop is the upper section of the falls. A short distance downstream is the larger Lower Greeter Falls, a 50 foot drop, which can be seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/tim_lumley/43625147245/

Sheyenne River Valley - Barnes County, North Dakota.

The river winds throughout the valley, hugging a few abandoned farmsteads. The North Dakota Fisheries and Wildlife has a few fish hatcheries down here, one being at Baldhill Dam where the river turns into Lake Ashtabula. Many waterfowl protected wetlands as well.
Personally, I love there are many historic or culturally significant sites in this area. Fascinating to research and explore.
We spent another fabulous day snowshoe hiking on the Bruce Trail. The powder was fresh and deep so the workout was wonderful. The sky was blue and the scenery spectacular. The smell of the cedar trees was divine as we brushed pass heavy laden branches on the trail. But the highlight of the hike was when we reached a spot where 4-5 chickadees came rushing toward us to greet us. We literally stopped in our tracks thinking they were going to crash into us.! I love when we are able to connect so effortlessly with nature. I will never tire of seeing these delicate little birds.
I decided to walk around my garden this morning and see what I could find. Some real beauties greeted me!
These two beautiful dogs were very eager to make my acquaintance as I walked by their garden in Penzance, Cornwall, UK. They made me feel like a real VIP with their exuberant greeting! Yes, I did stop & give them a pat. It would be so nice if all inhabitants of this world were so friendly :)
After a very long and exhausting day of work, I went out to my favorite lake spot to be with Jesus. It was absolutely beautiful as the storms came through as the lighting and drama in the clouds was stunning! I went over to the other side of the lake to be greeted by this beautiful sky that the Lord made. As I was over in the woods it began to pour down rain and thunder. I sheltered in the woods for a bit and as I walked back I got more and more drenched by the rain. I began to thank the Lord because it reminded me of the abundance of His love raining down on me and His voice is described like thunder and as I heard the thunder I could feel completely surrounded by the presence of the Lord!

When I arrived at BC Wetlands last Sunday, this guy was waiting on the sign to greet everyone. I think he was really waiting on an opportunity of people dropping some food getting out of their cars, but it was still nice to see him hanging at the entrance. He was also a sign (no pun intended :)) to come, because it was definitely a "seagull day" at the wetlands....as upcoming photos in the days ahead will show.
Happy Wednesday everyone!

I decided to head to the Lakes whilst the snow was still lying on the ground. As I came off the M6 Motorway I was greeted with low banks of cloud, so I quickly changed plans and took a gamble on getting up on to Scout Scar in the hope I could get above the clouds.
When I got up there I was delighted that it was clear on the tops, although bands of mist kept blowing over the summit for short periods. I took quite a few shots and a panorama of the Lakeland fells which were all clear above the inversion.
Here is a telephoto shot taken hand held with the Z100-400 of the wintery Langdale Pikes with the clouds blanketing the Lyth Valley below me.
I stepped out onto my driveway this evening to catch the Sunset and I was greeted with two deer in the lower field and a beautiful Sunset. Have a wonderful evening.

For regular Lake District hikers a familiar sight greets those who depart north. The undulating ridge winds its way towards a distant Swirl How. It is however the eastern facing crags over Low Water and Levers Water that catch the eye.
Beautiful light conditions on a drizzly morning late last year when we were out hiking with some friends. This heavily leaning tree reaches out to the trails, seemingly trying to greet the passing people.
