Had some great photos taken at the pond Yesterday with another Lily blooming to compete with this Bulls Eye Lily.
After the Female laid her eggs she posed for me on the flower, she even let me put my palm under her and touching her wings.
It's a precipitous drop from the lip of Bago Bluff to the rolling farmland below. I stood on a rocky outcrop to get this shot from the top of the Bluff. There is no safety fence or barriers at the top, not many people go there, but there is a 4x4 track for the intrepid adventurer.
St Andrew's Church in Winterborne Tomson, Dorset, England, was built in the 12th century. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is a redundant church in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. It was declared redundant on 1 June 1972, and was vested in the Trust on 26 March 1974.
The small flint and stone Norman Anglican Church of St Andrew has an apse at the east end and a barrel vault roof which curves around it. The roof was replaced and windows inserted in the 16th century. The oak door is heavily studded. The interior has limewashed walls, a 15th-century font and flag stone floor, along with early 18th-century oak fittings. The eighteenth century oak pews, the pulpit, screen, communion rails and matching table with barley sugar turned legs, and other woodwork were provided by William Wake, Archbishop of Canterbury, who had been raised in the village of Shapwick and whose family lived locally. The west end has a late medieval gallery with a panelled front which was probably originally a rood screen. The roof is topped by a small weatherboard belfry which resembles a dovecote.
By the early 20th century, the church had fallen into disrepair and was being used as an animal shelter by a local farmer. Repairs were paid for by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings who sold a collection of Thomas Hardy’s manuscripts to raise the funding. The work was supervised by A. R. Powys who also oversaw the work at the Old St Cuthbert's Church, Oborne
It was a popular place for children to swim but it has become a gathering place for sea lions to lounge in the sun.

It's finally done. Our sim is covered in snow, the bushes are covered in ice and snow is falling heavy and slowly, wrapping our land and our two homes under a thick, white blanket. And since I am finally satisfied.. or close there of, I herby open the sim area for visitors again. If you come and visit, please report all issues to me that you encounter. And be aware that the two homes are private and protected (watch the warning signs) and if you post a pic, mention me so I have an easier way to see what you like (flickr notification sucks), love to see how you set up our home
😘
Merry Christmas season everyone!!!

It's too late to apologize, it's too late I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late I said it's too late to apologize...
it is said, in our family lore, that we are descended from citizens of every country that claims stubbornness as a trait ~grin~.. but oddly enough, given my name, not switzerland

... I am enjoying my all-year-round tulips : ))
This lovely cyan glass vase is textured / kind of multi-faceted and has a golden coloured handle ... so perfect to get some bubbly bokeh with the vintage Oreston
Hope you have an enjoyable weekend

I was blown away.
What could I say?
It all seemed to make sense.
You've taken away everything,
And I can't deal with that.
I try to see the good in life,
But good things in life are hard to find.
We'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
Let's start over.
I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's not over.
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me,
But you're the only one.
It's not over.
Taken all I could take,
And I cannot wait.
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on.
Can't let it bring us down.
My life with you means everything,
So I won't give up that easily.
I'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
'Cause it's all misunderstood.
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's been a busy week - and it's home time - have a good weekend all:)

At El Ensueño, Quindío, Colombia.
Here is a male Black-throated Mango (Anthracothorax nigricollis) calmly perched and enjoying the rain. It was an enjoyable morning to photograph. No wind and gentle rain created conditions for several bird species to remain motionless while it rained upon them. I captured the falling rain with slow shutter speed, in this case, 1/13 sec.
The Black-throated Mango is about 10.2 cm (4 inches) in length, and its dark iridescent plumage with tones of black, blue, green, and gold make it an attractive bird. It breeds year-round in an extensive range at altitudes below 1750 meters (5700 feet) from Panama to northern Argentina.
In August of 2019, two women tourists reported that they were snapping pictures one night near the Chicago riverfront when they were approached by a pair of alien-like creatures who emitted a strange glow and asked if they had any spare change. At the time, local authorities discounted the report, but a blurry, third-party photo that was purportedly taken just before the encounter has recently surfaced, lending an air of credibility to the story.
