You know they are out there., but getting to actually see one isn't so easy! This one was doing his Usain Bolt impression next to a lake in Rutland., literally gone in 30 seconds! Lovey to see but forget all the 'compose the photograph' stuff., this was swing the lens and click or you miss it!
Do you know that too? You come to a beautiful place, a landscape panorama, a special stretch of coast by the sea or the shore of a lake and in the most beautiful places there are high fences, walls, villas or entire residential or hotel complexes.
Luckily it's not the case everywhere (in my beautiful Elbe Sandstone Mountains, for example, the view belongs to everyone) but I've experienced it several times in other places.
Then there are sights that you have to qualify for (either with money or with connections).
This also partly applies to this beautiful view of the famous “Blue Wonder”, a landmark of the city of Dresden.
When you get up here, you quickly notice that there are one house next to another. And every house has really high and opaque fences. Only from here, on the terrace of a rather chic restaurant, does one have a relatively unobstructed view.
Since I wanted to take a photo but didn't plan on eating here, I secretly sneaked onto the empty terrace (luckily it's winter) and set up my tripod in a dark corner.
Since I didn't bother anyone with anything, I think it's fine so far.
However, I would like to emphasize that I did not climb over any fences to gain entry. That would go way too far and I would skip the photo (which has already happened several times).
Kennt Ihr das auch ? Ihr kommt an einen wunderschönen Ort, ein Landschaftspanorama, einen besonderen Küstenabschnitt am Meer oder das Ufer einen Sees und an den schönsten Stellen stehen hohe Zäune, Mauern, Villen oder ganze Wohn- bzw. Hotelkomplexe.
Es ist zum Glück nicht überall der Fall (in meinem wunderschönen Elbsandsteingebirge gehört der Ausblick zum Beispiel jedem) doch ich habe es anderen Ortes schon mehrmals erlebt.
Dann sind es Anblicke, für die muss man sich qualifizieren (entweder mit Geld oder mit Beziehungen).
Dies gilt teilweise auch für diesen wunderschönen Blick auf das berühmte "Blaue Wunder" ein Wahrzeichen der Stadt Dresden.
Kommt man nämlich hier oben an, dann stellt man sehr schnell fest, dass hier ein Haus neben dem anderen steht. Und jedes Haus hat wirklich hohe und blickdichte Zäune. Nur von hier, der Terasse eines ziemlich schicken Restaurants hat man einen relativ freien Blick.
Da ich ein Foto machen wollte, jedoch nicht vor hatte hier zu essen, habe ich mich heimlich auf die leere Terasse geschlichen (zum Glück ist gerade Winter) und mein Stativ in einer dunklen Ecke aufgebaut.
Da ich niemanden bei irgend etwas gestört habe denke ich, dass geht soweit in Ordnung.
Ich möchte allerdings betonen, das ich über keinerlei Zäune geklettert bin um mir Zutritt zu verschaffen. Das ginge dann deutlich zu weit und ich würde das Foto sausen lassen (was auch schon mehrfach passiert ist).

You know that box that you keep trying to put me in? Go ahead and ask me: How many fucks do you give? The answer is simple: None. I have none to give. I am me. I am strong. I am my own woman. And I'm gonna fucking rock it.

Special thanks to Kimmy for posing for me! Enjoy your new profile picture!
You know the type. Goes to the store just for a liter of milk. Will not take a basket in the store and dumps it all on the belt by cash register. Carries it home under arm, in the pockets, under the chin. Shit, of course, always happens. Especially, if you carry eggs. I want it to write about Pawnbrokers; well, next time. Queensglad Pawnbrokers sign seems to be of older vintage, but the Pawnbrokers are around only since 1996.

Anyone know what plant this is? It's growing in the yard and I have no idea. It's really fuzzy as you can see. Soft fuzz. The curly fronds open up to long things that curl and grab onto other things. See prior pic for another view.
Yeah, you know the code we gotta live by
Never mind all the ice cubes on this wristwear in the big body
Live by the gun, get bodied or it's hella time in that cell

I know that having an insect on a flower is typical macro capture in Flickr, but I do not have such typical subject on my upload. So...here it is!
This one was taken around my office area with the bee(?) on top of my tiny favourite wild flower.

In order to know these hills, I ought to set foot upon their earth in quietness, perhaps. At least that seemed something painfully necessary at the time. Instead I go through in the sealed train, looking out from behind glass. I am cut off entirely from the hills and they are fairly abstract. What do I know of them, or they of me? There is no necessity for me to know them, or for them to know me. If I am to know those hills, if their rock faces are to be more than blanks, perhaps I have to climb them, be lost in their woods. However, it is a terrible thing to ride encased in the glass, sterile, train asking the hills who they are, and being cut off from any real answer in a sealed tube of scientifically cleaned and heated air, not the same air as fills the bitter, hostile woods outside. When the hills go to answer, they are defeated; so is the questioner. The answer can’t get through the glass.
-Thomas Merton, “January 2, 1941,” in Run to the Mountain, 282.
[Look to Your Soul]
I know if I'd been wiser this would never have occurred
but I wallowed in my blindness so it's plain that I deserve
for the sin of self-indulgence when the truth was writ quite clear
I must spend my life amongst the dead who spend their lives in fear
of a death that they're not sure of, of a life they can't control
It's all so simple really if you just look to your soul
Some say that I'm a wise man, some think that I'm a fool
It doesn't matter either way: I'll be a wise man's fool
For the lesson lies in learning and by teaching I'll be taught
for there's nothing hidden anywhere, it's all there to be sought
And so if you know anything look closely at the time
at others who remain untrue and don't commit that crime
WHEN SWEET CORN IS RIPE….
THE HARVEST IS IN... then, you know it is Autumn… here in Northern Europe at least.
All Summer you see the fields getting higher.
Silk is the name for the pistillate flowers, which emerge from the husk.
The fruit of the sweet corn plant is the corn kernel, a type of fruit called a caryopsis.
The ear is a collection of kernels on the cob.
Because corn is a monocot, there is always an even number of rows of kernels.
The ear is covered by tightly wrapped leaves called the husk.
Sweet corn occurs as a spontaneous mutation in field corn and was grown by several Native American tribes.
The Iroquois gave the first recorded sweet corn (called 'Papoon') to European settlers in 1779.
It soon became a popular food all over.
Another personal favourite, cannot say exactly why...
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Hello Everyone and Happy Monday!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I did promise an Interview I did with my friend Mary with my next photo,however she is not done editing, so it will have to be in the next photo. :)
I had a client request a few weeks ago to do an erotic style photograph in the Helmut Newton style. I was happy to oblige and taking the idea he gave to me of a Mistress of the house and her loyal dog companion always at her side, obedient and loving, I did a variation of the photo Mr. Newton did years ago. If you do not know of his work, here is a link to his foundation and I am sure you can find his work on the internets. :) helmut-newton-foundation.org/en/exhibitions-in-the-founda...
Thank you for allowing me to share my photo with you and have a lovely evening.
xoxo,

As you know the "Golden" gate bridge is not literally golden or is golden in color ... which made me think about this concept !
I thought doing a very long exposure and catching the particularly yellow/white reflections of passing cars' headlights might fix that problem ! So I headed to the vista point at night and after a few tries with different durations and white balances I managed to get the Golden Gate to look Golden, as it should have in the first place (!).
It was a particularly cold night and I couldn't feel my hands after this, so I really hope you enjoy this one !

you know some days when it's raining and you think will it be worth going out or even sitting in the hide today.
Then you glance out of the bungalow window and there's a Buzzard, patiently waiting for you to get your gear and take a photo.
It came back this afternoon so maybe I'll have to start collecting road kill for it.
What can I say about this? Nothing. I don't know where it came from, and no idea where its going. What I can tell ya though is that I shot it from Robert St. How's that for some detail.

I know defacing boulders is not really the done thing, but I quite liked this artwork. Happy Textural Tuesday!
Sorry I'm behind with comments. I've been busy with admin work on my various Flickr groups, specifically my "One photo a day" group, what a chore keeping track of uploads. I only do it a few times, just as well. It may well be my last year of running the group.
09/100 : My 100x photos this year will be taken in & around Tramore, a seaside town on the South East coast of Ireland.

The tenth and last image in this long Insect Series...
Yes, yes, I know. Spiders are NOT insects! So they technically should not be a part of this series. But I'll claim artistic license, lame as that may be :) This spider is just too amazing not to post as the finale to the series!
While Spiders and Insects share the same Phylum (Arthropoda), they are in different Classes- Spiders are in the Arachnid Family, while insects are in the Insecta Family. Spiders have 8 legs, insects have 6. No spider species have wings, while many insects do have wings.
This fairly large (3-inch) Cross Spider has been hanging around my Astilbe plants for the past two weeks. I spent a couple hours one day working every angle to get some stellar images of it. And you are looking at one of them here.
I love the light from the sky that shines through its body and give the spider such clear definition and clarity. I also like that you can clearly see the white cross symbol on its body from which it gets its name. Enlarge to the max to get the most immersive view.
With the cold of autumn moving in, I probably won't be seeing many more insects and spiders, so I am very happy that I was able to capture so many of them over the late summer months.
Thank you for joining me in this series with your views, faves, and comments... It's been so enjoyable!

There's a Crane fly? or big Stone fly? on them.
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.

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.

I know my photo is a little bit disturbing to look at, however this weeks topic is provoking. I had two options: the first one was mini Pink Panter holding a stolen diamond so the whole topic could be funny, but I've decided to go with the other serious idea as the crime is an unamusing problem.
In order not to be worried what is buried in my backyard I will tell you - this is my left hand in the substrate (peat moss) for flowers. In my right hand I am holding my camera as no one didn't want to pose for me.
HMM!
As always, thank you so much for your visits, comments and faves!

::: Nina Nesbitt - I'm Coming Home :::
I’m driving down these old dirt roads
I see the hills up on the right
White grass, artificial ski slope
Im speeding by the east coast train line
I’ve got a friend talking on the phone
He said he’d help me pass the time
I’m where the humour is dry as a bone
but it rains here every night
To see the faces that I know
Been away for way too long,
Where the trees always growin’
Wanna see where time has gone,
So put the kettle on the stove
Leave a light on so they know I’m coming home
I’ve got the wind in my sails
I’ve got the red in my cheeks
Cause I’ve been running from this place
Ever since seventeen
Cobbled streets
Evergreens
Castles and
housing schemes
That whisky taste
Out till late
See that man
He’s shitfaced
To see the faces that I know
Been away for way too long
So put the kettle on the stove
Leave a light on so they know
I’m coming home
Flashback I’m seventeen
in the passenger seat
You roll the windows down
808s and heartbreak plays
Even in this small town
We still had the biggest dreams
I always wanted something more
I always wanted to be seen
Still got that northern blood
I’ve still got a sharp edged tongue
I hold it like a sword
So everyone knows where I’m from
You take for granted all the things
That one day will be gone
I should’ve for held on for dear life
When I was young
I walk through the trees
I see the green
I see the reservoir
I see the nights
I see the lights
I see my family fall apart
I know the leaving
know the feelings
Know the seasons change
Things are different now
But I still feel the same
I’ve been around I’ve seen it all
There’s nowhere else I’d rather go
So won’t you let them know
I’m coming home
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
