"When night falls and the moon is out in all its glory and all you're left with is the rhythm of the sea, of the waves, you know what God intended for the human race, you know what paradise is."
~ Harold Pinter
Went to the beach before dawn to get this shot. Had a few health fanatics for company jogging and stretching behind me on the road that runs along the beach. The sky was not too clear and so this image had to be enhanced and touched up a bit. Sadly the moon got obscured as it sank leaving me disappointed but glad to have at least something to show.

Knowing that another batch of snow was coming, I made myself do a drive SE of the city two days ago. I didn’t feel at all like going out, but I think I was out for about 5 hours total. I also needed to check what my car was doing. It worked fine until I was way out east, but when I turned around to start going home, all the lights went out on my dashboard again. They did come on twice, but just very briefly. With sunglasses, I could see nothing, but without sunglasses on I could just make out a few faint numbers. Nothing at all on my GPS screen. I did think about driving straight to Honda again, but then thought that if I took it in, then I would no doubt be collecting it when we were getting the new snow. I will definitely be taking it in, though, as soon as possible.
The very first thing I saw on my drive was a coyote – extremely distant and I was looking at it, wondering if it was a small, dead bush, until it suddenly got up and ran, ha. No photo.
Also took photos of various old barns and sheds, including several new-to-me ones. Called in at Herronton, too, just to take a few shots of the old grain elevator.
Not much at all in the way of birds, apart from two very distant flocks of Gray Partridge, a Rough-legged Hawk, and one extra special sighting. When I was driving westwards on my homeward drive, I suddenly realized that it looked like something white on top of a light pole, right at the intersection before I was going to turn north. A beautiful female Snowy Owl! A few huge truck trailers and other vehicles driving just there, yet the owl chose that pole. I was only sitting in my car for a handful of minutes, and she was looking away from me, apart from two or three quick glances in my direction, so there was no point in taking lots of identical shots. Not the greatest photos, as they were taken through the windscreen. I was SO thankful to see her, as this was the first Snowy Owl of this year for me. Very soon, they will all be flying way up north till next winter.

This is my first of six collages for the "6 x 6 collage" group- I exchanged materials with Katwhee. I guess I cheated a little bit, because I couldn't resist adding some pencil shading and pencil writing. It's harder than it looks to make a pure collage without any drawing. I started with the phrase "knowing the birds" and then tried to illustrate that idea with collaged materials.
I don't know the artist who created the person's head, or the artist who created the bird stamp art... but I thank them for their work that I've used in creating my collage!

I'm not trying to tell you anything
You didn't know when you woke up today
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

Knowing this photo was taken by a JG 53 member, this could be W.Nr. 160723 "KS+ZE", operated by II./JG 53, which was damaged 45% by pilot error whilst landing at Fl.Pl. Wien-Seyring, 11 November 1943. It is the only known W.Nr. 16072x machine operated by that unit.

LESSON THIRTY-THREE
Knowing others is wisdom;
Knowing the self is enlightenment.
Mastering others requires force;
Mastering the self requires strength.
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Perseverance is a sign of will power.
He who stays where he is endures.
To die but not to perish is to be eternally present.
Lao Tsu
Tao Te Ching
6th Century BCE
The Bank was safe, and everybody got their money back. Well, knowing Gotham's banks, that might not be true. Anyway, police chatter told of a possible warehouse belonging to Black Mask. It was believed to be a drug safehouse. It has been confirmed that Black Mask is dealing fine Colombian cocaine for high prices. I'll take any leads to tear down his "business". Rushing to the location, I did the usual sneak through the vet on the roof and into the building routine. Like my visit to the Bank earlier, I burst through a ceiling vent ready to kick some drug dealer ass. instead though, I see room mostly empty, beside some rather nice looking cars on the side. I man in a leather coat comes around a corner, surprised to see me. he makes the mistake of pulling a gun. Now there's a shuriken embedded into his hand. I interrogate him about the place. According to him, he's the watcher for the storehouse Black Mask keeps his car collection in. I then take a look at the collection. I'm actually a bit of a car guy, so I recognized these cars. I knew Black Mask had to pay high dollar, because one of them isn't even sold in the country. Cuffing the goon, I leave a beacon for the police. They'll probably repo the drug-brought cars, and hopefully they end up with good owners who'll use them for what they're for. Cars like these are made for driving, not rotting away in a warehouse.....
Another attempt to get my Bat-fan friends to take a look at my cars. To my fellow bat-fans: 1,000 whose line points to whoever can name them off. To the car fans, don't spoil anything. This is also a bit of a tease. My next creation WILL be a car.
All seeing eye on the dusk-settling shore
Perched soundless and sentry-like
Night black plumage against the dying sun
Hushed and knowing witness to that fiery god’s demise.
Ubiquitous bird…found in pies and the dead of night
One or thirteen…What does it matter?
There is strength in solitude and knowledge in numbers
How many are you?
Trickster and transformer
Bearing the celestial gifts to lighten our way
Prometheus in a rented tuxedo
Capriciously comical
This heaven’s clown.
Tears and laughter…the first smile at the foot of creation
Left behind in our assigned ascent
Primitive reminder of pure, playful passion
And relinquished pleasures for order’s sake.
Hello Friends ........ Can anybody help me in knowing the name of this beautiful bird....... Happy Weekend Guys !!!
WEEK 2 – Spaghetti Warehouse “Double Helping,” Part 2
(cont.) …and stepped right up into the trolley for this one, knowing that I’d better get this shot now seeing as how there was no way I was ever going to be able to get it again! With this you can get a better understanding of what all Spaghetti Warehouse did to the interior of the car to make it habitable for restaurant-goers. Obviously the lighting is all new, as well as the tables and chairs (duh! – and by “all new,” I simply mean that those aren’t original to the trolley; I bet the tables and chairs may have been antique pieces as well)… but I’m not sure about the flooring, so perhaps it’s original! At the very back you can also see a staff station with a computer and some other supplies like Styrofoam cups, just beside the other entry door.
And ha, looks like I wasn’t the only one taking photos here on this day – check out the two standing folks on the right of the image!

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
Missing Piece
Playing with the classic jigsaw idea whilst it is raining outside..
A couple of Points to note:
1. Pick a jigsaw not marked as HARD. (failed)
2. When complete don't drop it so you have to start again.. (failed)
... which reflects my own when I made a silk dress for the first time yesterday. Silk, well this silk anyway, bunches up beautifully when gathering (if done in the right direction).
I was going, omg! omg! while gathering. That's how good it was. (Actually, it was better. I said a bunch of silly things I can't remember.) (And afterwards I was excited about finding matching tulle and ribbon. My husband probably thought I was going bonkers.)
(Synnøve: I must apologize for the background here - I swear I only use it for zigzag :-D) (OK and ruffling)

Well, looks like I've finally done it. I've taken the best photo I have ever taken, and I don't see how I could possibly do better. 🤔
So, since there is nowhere to go from here, I guess I may as well pack it in and retire. It's been nice knowing you...Bye! 😜

Becoming mild past.
Crossing the outer wall without scratching me.
Being happy knowing what to your you are it.

♫♫♪♫♪ W.A.S.P.: Forever Free ♫♫♪♫♪
I ride all alone and can't see
The road to nowhere anymore
And shadows whispers are calling me
To forbidden forests by the shore
And there she fell, deep in the night
One breath away from heaven's light
And she said - don't cry for me, I'm leaving you
The wind cries her name in the breeze
But I can't hold her anymore
Some fallen angel had come to me
And fell to heavy on my soul
And stole from me the love that I heard
Lords of time say never die
And said - don't cry for me, cause I'll be
Riding the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
I'll ride the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
Forever free
Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning
I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name
Riding the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
I ride the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
Forever free
