------------------------------ JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS ALONE!
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
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)
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 died that death for YOU and I. The good news is there no more punishment for sin left, we were and are 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. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

When you know a bit about the Algarve and think of Albufeira, the connotation of "tourism" automatically comes to mind. Yes, Albufeira is an extremely lively and touristy place. According to some data, the population increases from about 14,000 to 300,000 during the summer season. In winter, however, you can see the beach almost empty at sunset. And the white buildings of the town shine in this warm light and suggest a visit to one of the local restaurants.

I know the school of thought that you should ask a human subject for permission to take their picture, which I agree is nice for some situations, but it doesn't allow you to capture the unselfconscious ballet of human behavior. (Here, admittedly, self-consciousness is on display, but that's the charming point.) We in fact did interact before and after I shot this, and they were aware that I was there shooting them shooting each other.

If anyone knows what kind of butterfly this is, please let me know. The butterfly garden in Key West was outstanding, definitely the best I've ever visited.
I know this engine house has been photographed dozens of times before, but I'm afraid I find it irresistible. So I thought I'd try it from a different angle. This is the Towanroath Shaft engine house on the side of the cliffs in between St Agnes and Chapel Porth on the north coast of Cornwall. It is part of the Wheal Coates mine complex.
Earliest records indicate a mine at the site since 1692. The present mine opened in 1802 and came into full production in 1815. At the height of its production, 140 people were employed at the site to mine a seam of tin just below sea level. It closed for the first time in 1844 and was allowed by the owners to flood.
A new owner re-opened the mine in 1872 and built the Towanroath Shaft engine house to allow deep mining to commence. The engine house was used to pump water from the adjacent shaft which was 600 feet deep - well below sea level.
The mine closed again in 1889 when the price of tin fell. In 1906, new ownership hoped to work the mine for both tin and copper as Wheal Coates had produced a small amount of copper ore more than a century earlier. The period of operation from 1911-1913 was not very successful because tin production was sporadic and the mining boom was long gone. The mine closed for good in 1914.
Most of the mine buildings, which are Grade II-listed and from the 1870s, are on the top of the cliff out of shot. These, plus the Towanroath engine house, are preserved and maintained by the National Trust.

I think he knows his footprints
On the sidewalk
Lead to where I can't stop
Go there every night
I think he knows his hands around
A cold glass
Make me wanna know that body
Like it's mine
He got that boyish look that I like in a man
I am an architect, I'm drawing up the plans
It's like I'm seventeen, nobody understands
No one understands
Most of you know by now how I love 'playing' with light, a never ending beautiful challenge, food for my creative soul, which I so desperately need at the moment...
Each flower or object, most definitely people, seem to have a different 'personality' which I'm trying to capture.
Alstroemeria, the genus named after the Swedish baron Alströmer who brought them back from a trip to South America in 1753.
Also called the Peruvian Lily or Inca Lily, is a South American genus of about 50 species of flowering plants.
The flower, which resembles a miniature lily, is very popular for bouquets and flower arrangements in the commercial cut flower trade.
They have a vase life of about two weeks.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

"The name "hog" is synonymous with Harley-Davidson bikes, and though you might expect it to have something to do with their imposing, hulking size (or sound), in reality, the nickname was adopted because Harley racing team member Ray Weishaar owned a piglet, which became the team's mascot. After winning competitions, team members would take a victory lap with their porcine mascot." Rich Duprey (TMFCop) Jun 6, 2017 at 7:32AM

Yeah I know what you into
Baby got a type
Yeah I could be gentle
But that ain’t what you like
Lips you’re biting it’s inviting
And it’s hot as hell
Trust your body I’m nobody
I don’t kiss and tell
Release your inhibitions
There ain’t no point in fighting
Don’t need no good intentions
So why you tryna find it
Just scream and shout

I know that life may seem a bit strange at times
But through all of the pain confusion you have to remain divine
Do all that you can do to heal and change inside
Know and understand that even
Flowers have to endure the rain at times
Beautiful sunflower, sunflower soul
You haven't been yourself since some time ago
Beautiful sunflower, sunflower soul
You have to learn to let go and forgive
In order for the sunshine to show
I want you to know that things get better with time
But in the meantime you have to stop
Seeing yourself through irrelevant eyes
May you shine like the Light that has
Brought you forth from the heavenly sky's
No idea what these are called?

What comes after spring? Winter, right? Of course, this is complete nonsense, as every child knows. But since I still see a lot of unpublished snow here in front of me, I have to ignore the natural order and do a roll backwards.
So we are now back in January at a lake near Schwepnitz. What inspired me to take this photo were, in addition to the frozen tree trunk, all the animal tracks around me. There must have been a lot going on here the night before because most of them looked pretty fresh.
Was kommt nach dem Frühling ? Der Winter oder ? Das ist natürlich völliger Quatsch, wie jedes Kind weiss. Doch da ich noch einiges an unveröffentlichtem Schnee hier vor mir sehe, muss ich die natürliche Reihenfolge ignorieren und eine Rolle rückwärts hinlegen.
Wir sind nun also zurück im Januar an einem See bei Schwepnitz. Was mich zu diesem Foto inspiriert hat waren, neben dem eingefrorenen Baumstamm, die ganzen Tierspuren um mich herum. Hier muss in der Nacht zuvor ganz schön was los gewesen sein, denn die meisten davon sahen ziemlich frisch aus.

You know how it is, some pictures are easy to take, just point and shoot, but others are a little more challenging.
So, here I was crouching down beneath a cliff, up to my ankles in water, hiding behind boulders to keep out of the way of other Togs, in the pouring rain and just praying the effort would be worthwhile.
The other Togs were showing varying levels of commitment - or stupidity depending on your point of view. Two were sticking with it, one young lad was understandably reluctant to get his new camera out from its protective bin-bag wrapper, and the other two baled out early to go and photograph a toad.
These are a lovely set of falls, especially when the flow is good. Definitely worth a visit, whatever the weather!
I know that my nervous system is sometimes triggered by old manipulations. Just knowing this makes the situation much easier. I let the wave come and pass over or under me. The wave disappears, and the next time it comes, it has already lost its power. With each wave, I become more steadfast, and my resilience grows.
Stonechat
1700.29.11.2023
As some of you may know I spend each day, during breeding season with black redstarts. This year in the late afternoons and every day I made my way up to Holcombe Hill to photograph the lives of a pair of Stonechats (no matter the weather). Along the stretch of moorland road 5 pairs attempted to breed and of the 5 only 1 pair was successful. Fortunately, I picked the right pair and they got used to me. The pair had two broods. Four chicks successfully fledged with the first brood and three for the second. Occasionly the adults would alight on top of flowering foxgloves. For some reason the R7 did not hit the bird's eye and would ping the background instead. I tried several lenses and all the R7 settings but nothing would give me an instant and reliable focus. I had to keep focusing on nearby grass and then hope I could nail the bird which might have flown...I don't think this would happen with a dedicated RF lens. It was incredibly frustrating but I am still happy with my gear of choice which has given me some stunning results. I certainly managed to nail 3 juveniles flying onto the foxglove which by then had dropped its petals...and it was raining! I really enjoyed this year doing the black redstarts and the stonechats. It was hard work and very tiring for me and I was doing sometimes 15 hour days but I would do it all again in a heartbeat for the same birds...always a joy! The image was made at only 188mm focal length. No hide used.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down, cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right
That is I think it's not too bad
Let me take you down, cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Always, no sometimes, think it's me
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a "Yes" but it's all wrong
That is I think I disagree
Let me take you down, cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever

As you may know, I'm really into trees. Of course not so much that you would call it a fetish. But I'm pretty fascinated by them. And this has several reasons.
Firstly, there is the obvious. They produce oxygen and thus create the basis for life on this planet. In addition, such a tree is a habitat for countless other organisms, both above and below ground.
And then there is the lifetime. A tree lasts for many human generations. I often ask myself, especially when I stand under a specimen like this, as you can see here, what this tree may have seen in its life. Or what the surrounding area looked like when it first poked its tip out of the ground.
These thoughts often occurred to me during my cross-country journeys and hikes in Thailand. Because I saw some examples here that made me pause in awe.
This one, on the edge of a small village, is one of them.
Wie Ihr vielleicht wisst, stehe ich ja total auf Bäume. Natürlich nicht so sehr, dass man es als Fetisch bezeichnen würde. Doch ich bin schon ziemlich faziniert von denen. Und dies hat mehrere Gründe.
Zum einen ist da das Offensichtliche. Sie produzieren Sauerstoff und schaffen so die Grundlage von Leben auf diesem Planeten. Außerdem ist so ein Baum ein Lebensraum für unzählige andere Organismen und das sowohl über als auch unter der Erde.
Und dann ist da noch die Lebenszeit. Ein Baum überdauert viele menschliche Generationen. Ich frage mich sehr häufig, vor allem wenn ich unter einem solchen Exemplar stehe, wie Ihr hier seht, was dieser Baum in seinem Leben wohl alles gesehen haben mag. Oder wie die Umgebung wohl aussah, als er das erste mal seine Spitze aus der Erde gereckt hat.
Bei meinen Über-Land-Fahrten und Wanderungen in Thailand sind mir diese Gedanken häufig gekommen. Denn ich habe hier einige Exemplare gesehen, bei denen ich kurz vor Ehrfurcht inne halten musste.
Dieses hier, am Rande eines kleinen Dorfes, ist eines davon.

I've been to Brugge a few times now and have got to know many of the famous haunts. This spot is a Mecca for tourists and photographers alike with the dog leg in the canal, the ornate brick buildings and the towering Belfry in the background.
We were on my cycling clubs spring tour; Brugge is a short hop over the English Channel for us, (two hours by ferry), and a 65 mile bike ride. Lucky enough we had a car and a van for backup so I was able stow some of my photographic kit.
Late one night I was able to extricate myself from the usual socialising and leg it to this spot approximately a mile from our hotel. Thankfully most of the tourists, (yes I know I'm one), had left the city or were tucked away in their hotels for the evening. Blue hour was coming to an end and thankfully the canal was mirror calm. The huge tungsten lights gave the scene a surreal quality with their orange glow which allowed me to capture this gorgeous night scene.
7 exposure, tripod mounted hdr -3 - +3. Nikon D700 with 16 - 35 f4 vr @ 22mm. ISO 800, exposure 1/5 - 25 sec at f9. Post processing via adobe camera raw, photomatix, & photoshop with topaz clarity and de noise plugins. I really had to mess around with the pp to try and remove banding in the blue sky. Anyone ever come across this problem?
"...And I know that you care for me.
So I don't feel alone,
Or the weight of the stone,
Now that I've found somewhere safe
To bury my bone.
And any fool knows a dog needs a home,
A shelter from pigs on the wing." -Pink Floyd
I know it's just crying out for some witty caption, but everything I think of is a bit of a cliche.
So it's simply a pair of sand martins sitting on a fence, at St Aidan's in the Aire Valley, West Yorkshire.
I know it's a sheep and not a bear , but we went to a great gig last night in Bristol, seeing Sea Power , a favourite band. One of Sue's favourite songs was Bear , and I had it as her ring tone so the opening riff reminds me of her texting or calling me. It was a great gig of largely more laidback songs including scores they did for the award winning Game Disco Elysium, so there were lots of younger fans there in costume. It was great for me to go with my three daughters, all in all a wonderful night. So Bear by Sea Power is the title of this beautiful sunrise.
You'll never know how much I miss you, you won't see it in my face
You'll never know I'll never find another that could take your place
'Cause I'll be smiling when I see you, though my tears won't ever show
Yeah, I might always love you but you'll never know
Theories range from getting oxygen for the Bald Cypress tree to helping stabilize the tree because of it's shallow root system, but no one has yet figured out the real purpose of cypress knees. Just another one of those unsolved mysteries of nature.
Temps below 20 degrees this morning in the swamps...stay warm, people!!!
You just never know when you're going to get a chance to get a special capture. I had very little expectations today - and then the house thermostat broke. So I stopped late in the afternoon to do a Lowe's curbside pick-up and as I drive through the JC Penny parking lot I see a dozen birds feeding in a tree - hmph - I figure they must be Robins. I decide to take a closer look - mother-of-pearl, one of my favorite birds - Cedar Waxwings. Oh yeah, this day just got immensely better. .

I know it is not the best shot, but it was a real oppurtunity to get a photo of this female in flight - she was planting her eggs inside the stems of reeds, I may post one of her later actually laying the eggs!
Weekend tomorrow!
...And I know what you did last weekend.
A week ago, just as the sun peeked over the horizon and I was paddling beneath a hollowed-out cypress trunk on Mud Lake, Mr. Plieated Woodpecker popped out of a hole, stared at me as I stared at him, then quickly flew away for parts unknown. So this morning I approached the cypress with camera already in hand and just as the sun cleared the horizon, Mr. Pileated rolled out of bed again, gave me one brief look and again quickly headed off to work. Sure hope this is his homestead and not just an airbnb.
Do you know, I got home from RL work today, and my amazing other half has done ALL the food shopping and prep for Christmas.
How fuckin lucky am I?!

Enjoying a calm and beautiful sunset at Cape Fear River, NC.
"Everglow"is about the feeling of warmth or happiness that comes with the sadness you feel when you think about a relationship, situation, or friendship that has now ended or will do someday, but I truly believe that the seeds of love, hope and peace we plant in this world will follow us into the next and the end is not the end, but the beginning of something new; something beautiful and when we look back, we will see that what we have sown we will reap … “ - excerpt from a short story, “Goodbye to H” - AP
Dedicated to my dear friend, Julie who brought me back … you and your Mum are in my thoughts and prayers xx
Soundtrack : www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn_1hFdE-5g
EVERGLOW - COLDPLAY
The closer we look the more we find
each precious drop; a diamond from Heaven
each tiny thorn; a poignant reminder
that all have a purpose in this world of ours
sitting in my enchanted garden
a snail coiled beautifully next to me
his iridescent glowing colours
a reminder of life's constancy
overhead the wind blows softly
the pink quince flowers on the bowers
softly blushing against the blue
clear skies always a kind reminder
that Heaven is near and all around you
each step we take a subtleness settles
on gentle shoulders filled with love
your countenance like the beautiful flowers
you photograph; bring peace like a morning dove
no need to thank me for my words
it is I who should be thanking you
and I do my friend with all my heart
for it is your words that brought me back and through
you see the darkness had descended on me
a betrayal by a very close friend
and I could only find words of sadness
but you changed all that; with the words you sent
so here I am in my Heavenly garden
writing these words that you deserve
and praying for you and your dear beloved
mother who brought an angel here to earth
each day is a miracle; each moment a blessing
and no-one knows how our stories end
but while we are here, we should be kind and loving
just like you my sweet, caring friend
I suffered betrayal at the hands of another
but I won't lose hope; I keep open my heart
for an end is not the end of our story
we go on; we live; we love; we start
right back at the beginning
when innocence was bliss
like the first Spring flower on a misty morning
and the sweetness of our very first kiss
our journey in this life may draw to a close
but the suffering we learned from
like the very first rose
we overcame and we blossomed
we gave it our all
and this day hope resurfaced
and we didn't fall.
