I didn't have anything of interest to post for the month of August 2022. I guess I didn't get out enough that month to take shots.
So I decided to share a shot I took early September for the August selection.
This is an extremely vital roll for the Mom Alpaca... To share with her baby cria her antibodies in order to keep the baby strong, healthy and able to fight infections and so on.
It is absolutely amazing to see this process between the two. It's filled with love and compassion between mother and child. A true honor to have been there at the right time to capture this!
Many don't get a chance to witness the love and connection between these animals and their younglings!
I really so DO love my Alpacas
:-D)))

P.s... In case your wondering about the sweater... It was a little cold for the new born and we are fully equiped at the farm with fashionable attire for the little ones, to stay snug as a bug :-D)
Un ami m'a offert ce Yeti avec des mugs et naturellement Maya est venue inspecter ces objets avec grand intérêt.
Le Yeti l'a un peu impressionnée au début c'était très drôle !
A friend gave me this Yeti with mugs and naturally Maya came to inspect these objects with great interest.
The Yeti impressed her a little at the beginning it was very funny !
Commonly known as La Compañia, this Catholic church is one of the most important places of interest in Quito. It is even said to be one of the 7 wonders of Ecuador. Located in the historical centre of the country's capital, it is the most visited place for travellers. It was once part of a university called Santa Gregorio, which was the Ecuadorian Jesuit headquarters during the Spanish colonial empire.
The third shot I took of the low winter sun rising!
As November turns into December the early mornings can be masked in mist, bright and clear like this, or most often grey and dull. So I tend to grab the chance of the bright photogenic mornings to shoot as much as I can ... to take me through the dull wet mornings 😊
My apologies - but this one seemed perfect for the Saturday Smile challenge of "sunrise". The previous 2 are in the first comment field

'Develop interest in life as you see it: in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself'.
words from Henry Miller, quoted by Clare in her entry in 'Sachet Mixte: Women' First Edition (2014)
The Egyptian goose is native to Sub-Saharan Africa and the Nile Valley, where it is widespread and common. In fact, I saw plenty of Egyptian Geese at the watering holes located throughout Etosha National Park in Namibia.
Nevertheless, due of their popularity chiefly as an ornamental bird, the species has also been introduced to Europe, the United States and elsewhere outside their natural range.
This particular individual was captured flying above the Main River in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, where an urban park running along both banks of the river provide these wild birds with a year-round, all-you-can-but, buffet of fresh grasses and seeds.
Species: Egyptian Goose / Alopochen aegyptiaca / 埃及雁

Women of a Balinese village, not far from the historic capital of Ubud, prepare a celebration. There are thousands of days of celebration all over the island; I must tell you that from what I have been able to understand, all the Celebrations have "harmony" as their heart, the exchange of energy in everyday life between all the Exists: mountains, necks, flowers, animals, humans .... Balinese celebrate this world they are a part of with symbolic offerings of thanks. It is a people who for 5000 years have loved the material and spiritual balance in the Existence: perhaps it is enough to observe and remember how the primary good is water and how it is distributed among everyone to get to the rice fields!

Someone asked: what do you mean with this title?".
My answer:
"When I was 20 it happened on one side that a young man of the same age in Czechoslovakia set himself on fire and died as the only defense against Soviet tanks; on the other hand, thousands of young people of my age were sent to be killed and to kill in Vietnam.
The enemy is always an invention of the aggressor.
War, all wars, are destruction of life, in the interest of few.
At least so it seemed to me when I was young and still today.

When the clouds lingered on the distant horizon, it was time to grab my camera and tripod, then make for the rocks at Snickett Park. Upon arrival, I clambered about eventually finding a crevasse for the foreground. While I was awkwardly perched, a man stammered up on my left. I thought, "oh, here we go". He leaned in showing me an iPhone shot he had taken of me. "The wild taking photos of the wild", he blustered. And, considering the strong smell of alcohol, it was good a lit match was not present.
Then a family came close and a young lady introduced herself as Penny, and asked a few questions. The show of colors had begun so I remained but answered. They were visiting from England and were enjoying a holiday. I offered my site as reference so she could find spots of interest along the Sunshine Coast.
Nice to meet you Penny.
Spring is in the air, a little early. Spring doesn't officially start until 20th March. Nice to see the delicate Weeping Willow seeds (Salix Babylonica) making an appearance at Attenborough Nature Reserve (Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)), here in Nottinghamshire.

No Group Banners, thanks.
Just a simple candid street style Snapograph taken at London UK showing part of a Trombone that’s being played by someone in a Sally Army band.
I'm also working on a personal project called Faceless and this snap will be included.

An outdoor exhibition on the South Bank of the Thames about a boat race takes the interest of an old mariner (me thinks).
Hyatt Regency Fukuoka located near Hakata station in Kyushu, Japan.
