bad enough it's another shot of this beauty, but a REDO? Hee hee hee ... couldn't help myself. I was not happy with the previous editing but didn't want to loose the nice comments and visits. So ... I know, I know one LAST time for this beauty.
Sempervivum.
Everybody knows Green Day.
Green Day is an american rock band formed in the east bay of California in 1987 by lead vocalist and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong and bassist and backing vocalist Mike Dirnt. For much of the band's career, they have been a trio with drummer Tré Cool, who replaced John Kiffmeyer in 1990. Wikipedia.
I don't like this band but it is the name that I needed :-)

This is a view of the Seattle skyline after a series of storms fiercely roiled above the city off and on throughout the day.
Seattle, in Spring, is one of those cities when almost every type of weather imaginable is listed -- and SERVED -- on the menu from hour to hour, or every 30 minutes. Take a sip of your drink as I set the scene for you.
You are figuratively sitting at the table, wholeheartedly curious to see what will be featured in the next course because Chef Mother Nature is bringing out her very best today: high winds and drizzle, some "shy-and-goodbye" sunshine, a feast of tempest teasers, more "peek-a-boo" sunshine, a feisty storm and sun combo with a side of rainbow delight, etc. Sometimes you want your taste buds to get accustomed to the new flavors, but often, you don't have time because the next meal has just been prepared for your consumption. The Chef does not care if you haven't had time to acclimate. This is her show.
You get the picture...well, you literally are about to now!
After all the different meals, you are stuffed. However, though your hunger has been overwhelmingly satiated, and your palate has experienced a multitude of spices and seasonings, you know you need to end the meal with an appetizing, gooey, decadent dessert. (Plus, you know it's coming after that fiesta of diverse foods). On this day, we were treated to an intriguing mix of orange and peach skies with smooth breezes above the bay to close the day. Scrumptious, sweet, and delicious, yes?
Alas, I hope you enjoyed our dessert. I know I did.

I know you want me
Every day, not only when you're lonely, yeah
You see, you think you know me
But you don't even know nothing about me, yeah
You see my thick thighs
Lost when you look into my brown eyes
See, my little waist can make you switch sides
You never know the devil in the disguise
So why don't you stand up, baby, and
Tell me, tell me, tell me do you want me on top?
So let me show you, show you, show you, I don't need to back it up
Don't wanna hold ya, mold ya, scold ya
Split you in half with my heart
I just wanna love on you, trust in you, honour you
Please do the same on your part
I didn't know two years ago, when I did a test shot with my 10 stop ND filter, what I would do with it. I ended up with a busy Saturday afternoon motorway completely cleared of traffic. Cool I thought, one for the archives...
Searching for something else I stumbled across this motorway shot and then I had an idea; why not make it look all apocalyptic, so I had another go at doing that.. More layers than I've every used, with some textures for the road, and an inverted faux infra then super desaturated to finish. Then added my favourite stock figure, as a lone survivor heading to who knows where (well, to give you a clue, Junction 16, Stoke on Trent is the next turn off)?
Nature is what we know -
Yet have not art to say -
So impotent our wisdom is

„...I know where I want to be... Aber diesen Ort gibt es wohl nicht in dieser Realität... Das hier ist der Parkplatz vom Grusellabyrinth in Bottrop. Aber mir kommt die Welt an sich nach all den Diskussionen der letzten Tage auf dem Niveau der Bild-Zeitung vor wie ein Grusellabyrinth. Die Vernunft darf nicht dem Hass weichen. Und doch wird sie mit jedem Tag ein Stück weit mehr fortgeschwemmt. Die Rationalität weicht der geschürten Angst. Fakten bedeuten nichts. Das Wissen verkümmert, wenn es auf den Boden fällt, den Ideologien und Ressentiments haben verdorren lassen. Meine Fluchtursache kann ich selbst bekämpfen, diesen Dämonen stelle ich mich gerne. Aber wer die Fluchtursachen für die, die nichts mehr haben und die niemandem als Mensch mehr etwas zu bedeuten scheinen, nicht endgültig beseitigt, wird sie nicht von ihrer Flucht abbringen können... Ich habe heute Nacht wieder vom Krieg geträumt. Und habe angefangen, im Schlaf die Sprache zu sprechen, die ich tagsüber seit fast zwei Jahrzehnten nicht mehr sprechen möchte. Es gibt immer eine andere Seite des Zaunes. Wer entscheidet eigentlich, wer auf welcher Seite geboren wird? Die, die an ihrem Hass zu ersticken drohen, begreifen überhaupt nicht, welches Glück sie am Tag ihrer Geburt hatten... Koliko često moram razmišljati o tome. Kako su nam istrgnuli malo hrane i vode za piće koje smo još imali u kamionu iz ruku. A onda ova slika u mojoj glavi. Dječak koji je s malim neznancem podijelio nešto od malog... Marion lag wach neben mir und ohne ein Wort wusset sie, wo ich in meinen Träumen war. Sie hat meine Hand gehalten..."

Yes I know its two weeks after Halloween but I liked the theme of "My Domain" so much that I decided to make a few small changes to make it more of a sanctuary type of place, somewhere your modern witch might also go to relax and unwind. DRD's Bloodcroft Castle gacha provided me with just the pieces I needed to achieve that goal. I usually post detailed credits with my images but I am cheating this time as most of the credits are here: www.flickr.com/photos/131723058@N03/37596757536/in/datepo..., with the exception of a few pieces by DRD. If there is anything in the picture that you don't see a credit for, please let me know and I will send you the item info.
Thanks and Enjoy!
Thank you all for your comments, faves and support. I do not know why lately there was a sudden growth of interests in my work, so, I am sorry if I do not reply or reciprocate your comments and faves.
Please DO NOT fave my photos in large number. Fave only those photos that you like as I will not return your faves in large number.
Please also note that you may follow me but I may not follow you back as it is very time consuming to have too many friends.

Under the water
It's cold and it's grey
My torrid autumn
Another season decays
Open up the hollow
And my walls come down
I'll tell you it's a problem
Just when no one's around
But then
I know what's wrong
God you complicated everything
I know you're gone, gone, gone
This is where I will draw my line
I will draw my line
Burning my cathedrals
'Cause I don't pray anymore
Look at all these people
These tragic little people
They're smiling and they don't know what for
But then
I know what's wrong
God you complicated everything
I know you're gone, gone, gone
This is where I will blur my line
I will blow my line
Our houses are haunted
Torn and deserted
They're made of my secrets and shame
Baby I want it
But I know I'm not worth it
I can't even sell you my name
But then
I know you're wrong
God, you took it all away from me
I know you're gone, gone, gone
This is where I will cross my line
I am crossing my line
FF-- Silhouette: Went to a play at the U. of Delaware, Newark, DE.....And there she was again, after many, many years, and the thrill was the same.....
We'd never know how high we are
Till we are called to rise
And then, if we are true to plan
Our statures touch the sky
~ Emily Dickinson
Come with me, maybe we can make some memories
Get away from the day, I got a remedy
So let’s roll it up, you know I got enough
Late night, getting high, are you gonna ride or die?
So come with me, I’ll take you to the good life...

Just to let you know, the Loon rescue team have advised that a channel opened up in the ice and the last 3 Loons presumably left
8 out of 10 are now hopefully doing well out in clear water.
I know I keep posting E-Type images and saying how much I love the competition cars, but this one in particular is a real beauty. OWC 4 is a competition replica built from a crashed chassis sometime around 1987 by racing driver Bryan Wingfield.
________________________________
Leaving Eifel land you come to Bergische land this is the area of undulating hills between the Ruhr and Sieg rivers and also where I spend most of my time in Germany when I travel for business.
Pictured here is probably the fanciest house in the park the Mannesmannhaus aus Remscheid, Mannesmann was a file maker and a shrewd businessman and investor who turned his small business into a metal making empire that today is worth billions and the most respected metals manufacturer in Germany.
The house dates from 1795 when Johann Heinrich Mannesmann settled in Bliedinghausen, originally a half timbered affair it was rebuilt as Mannesmann’s prosperity grew into what we see today.
The family moved into a mansion befitting their stature and wealth in the later part of the 19th century and kept possession of the original homestead until it was donated to the park in the mid 21rst century.

I know, I know, another Rainier shot. Told ya I was out! :-)
taken just after the alpenglow died off, liked this spot better but just missed that golden couple minutes. taken above Shadow Lake, Sunrise area.
I put a box where the climbers are, unfortunately on here you can only see the blazed trail, but in lightroom I can see them well enough to count them. :-)
I was able to put the cropped version in comments, kinda cool.
I know I have most likely posted pictures of this bike before but ... well, it's so photogenic! LOL We actually had about 4 inches of snow on Tuesday, the first snow of the season! This bike sits in my yard in a small garden next to the swing. Two symbols of childhood (to me) that are timeless and bring many fond memories. Sadly, most of the snow has melted away already but I have hopes of a repeat before the winter is gone away completely.
Of course, Bo's doesn't really look like this. Bo's is a local staple since 1954 in Tampa. Everyone knows Bo's. It's where I go when the urge for a hot fudge sundae hits.

Does anyone remember these Bo commercials:
As some of you know the vehicles in other places in the world are not as big or as powerful as they are in the USA but we figured no big deal five adults should be fine even if the car is a little smaller than we're used to.
These lakes are southeast of the large crater in Sete Cidades that I posted earlier. As is the story on most of the Island there's a lot of really steep mountainous regions and the car was really struggling to climb here and bottoming out, it got to the point the car was like a stubborn mule, it would climb no longer ! As the lone driver I decided that we had to get rid of some of the dead weight and it wasn't going to be me so my brothers had to walk up rest of the way :-))) fortunately for them it wasn't to far.
You know, uh...the Native Americans, they believed that a photograph would take a piece of the subject's soul.
But what... what gets left out of the fine print is...that it can also take a piece of the photographer's soul.

I know that you've been hurt before and
You hide your face with your disguise
'Cause someone filled your head with lies
But you don't have to worry this time
No, you don't have to worry
'Cause I would never let you down
I will never let you fade away another day
Don't run away, run away

----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

A child knows exactly what happiness is, much better than many adults:
Dad, it's better to be happy than rich, we would also have the lighter wallet to run faster! Federico, 5 yo
Un bimbo sa esattamente cos'è la felicità, molto meglio di tanti adulti:
Papà conviene essere felici invece che ricchi, così si ha pure il portafogli più leggero e si può correre più forte! Federico, 5 anni
Cause everyone knows someone who kills the buzz
Everytime they open up their mouth
Yeah, everyone knows someone who knows someone
Who thinks they're cooler than everybody else
And I think we've seen enough, seen enough
To know that you ain't ever gonna come down
So why don't you giddy up, giddy up
And ride straight out of this town
You and your high horse
