From yesterday evening at the cabin. This storm cell blew in during sunset. These prairie storms can be impressive, but this one left us with only a few drops of rain. We cleaned up the yard, and closed up the windows. Then I hung out on the dock to watch and take photos.
Storms and skies like this make me realize just how small we actually are.
Also part of my figurative language set. Both of them go with the same idiom in my mind. A term we use when feeling a little ill. I'll retitle the pictures in a couple of days with the idiom, but feel free to guess in the mean time.
but danielle has been on of my closest friends since we were in the third grade. this makes me want to take intimate portraits of all of my close friends and family. i want to keep a piece of them with me forever. i want to shoot them the way that i see them.
Good morning Sunshine. Good morning Soul. Good Morning Earth. Good Morning Mist.
A peaceful morning, woken up by the sounds of the birds chirping and the cold breeze passing above the sleeping bag; the warm body within shudders awakened with a cold kiss of morning due. Taking in the first mountain breath; breathing in fresh air witnessing the rest of the world awakened from a distance.

I'm starting a language comparison using the first Harry Potter book as the vehicle. I spoke fluent Korean fifty years ago. Studied Spanish in High School and French in College. I'm just going to see where it leads. I have Latin and Welsh on the way. The book has been translated into about 80 languages . :-)
Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choi_Hung_Estate:
Choi Hung Estate (彩虹邨; lit. 'rainbow estate') is a public housing estate in Ngau Chi Wan, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was built by the former Hong Kong Housing Authority (屋宇建設委員會) and is now managed by the current Hong Kong Housing Authority. It received a Silver Medal at the 1965 Hong Kong Institute of Architects Annual Awards.
Choi Hung Estate is located in Ngau Chi Wan and is surrounded by several of eastern Kowloon Peninsula's major roads. To the north is Lung Cheung Road; to the south Prince Edward Road East; to the west Kwun Tong Bypass and to the east Clear Water Bay Road.
The Hong Kong government granted the land to the Hong Kong Housing Authority to build a large housing estate in 1958. The blocks of the estate were completed between 1962 and 1964. An opening ceremony was held in 1963 with the presence of then Hong Kong Governor, Sir Robert Brown Black. A signboard commemorating the ceremony is located in the estate's Lam Chung Avenue.
Accommodating nearly 43,000 people, it was the largest public housing estate at the time.
In November 2023 it was reported that Choi Hung Estate was earmarked for redevelopment meaning that 43,000 residents will require rehoming.
In October 2024, the redevelopment plan was revealed in the Wong Tai Sin District Council. It was proposed to demolish Tan Fung House, Pik Hoi House, Kam Pik House, Market and two former Sheng Kung Hui primary schools buildings in between 2028 and 2029 as the first phase, residents in the three blocks will be settled to the new blocks in Mei Tung Estate. Once the first phase is expected to complete in between 2035 and 2036, the blocks will settle the residents in Pak Suet House, Hung Ngok House, Kam Wan House and Kam Wah House when the next phase begins. The final phase is expected to begin in between 2042 and 2043, the residents in the last remaining blocks (Chi Mei House, Luk Ching House, Chui King House and Kam Hon House) will be settled to the new blocks in the second phase. The number of units will be increased to 9200 once the entire redevelopment plan is completed in between 2048 and 2049.
The estate has 11 residential blocks, one car park, and five schools, with various shops and restaurants on the ground floor of each block. Roads in the estate connect the blocks to each other and to major roads.
According to the 2016 by-census, Choi Hung Estate had a population of 18,435. The median age was 48 and the majority of residents (96 per cent) were of Chinese ethnicity. Cantonese was the predominant usual spoken language (93 per cent), followed by other varieties of Chinese excluding Mandarin (4.5 per cent), non-English and non-Chinese languages (2 per cent), Mandarin (0.5 per cent), and English (0.3 per cent).
The average household comprised 2.5 persons. The median monthly household income of all households (i.e. including both economically active and inactive households) was HK$15,290.
The estate is photogenic and has become a tourism hot-spot. The most photographed view of the estate includes the basketball court and rainbow apartments behind. Some journalists and researchers have been vocal against the growing Instagram popularity of the area, criticising that it is a shallow view of the complex social history of the council estate in Hong Kong, as well as driving away locals who want to use the space. Though some locals have also begun selling photos for profit to tourists. It has been suggested that the location is popular not only for the aesthetics, but also because it allows the photographers and selfie-takers to feel as if they are in the middle of the world - compared to the more detached equally-aesthetic Hong Kong skyline shots. In 2017, a photograph of the building was shortlisted for the Arcaid Award, an architecture photography prize.

It seems that nowadays our emotions are only expressed through the appropriate emoji, complex feelings distilled down to a single little face. Have our feelings become of such little consequence......
Nude Language Poet.
Et cantant canticum cuniculos femora iracundus oculos,
glorie di respirazione unwrapping vestiti contorni della pelle,
теплые пальцы скользят предвидя возможности пульсирующие подняться органы,
συγκινητικό ήσυχο χείλη αυξήθηκε αυξανόμενη οικειότητα χτίζει,
descrições sensualidade poetas sexuais juntos consciência borbulhantes sexo,
archwilio cariadon trosiadau pleserau fordeithiau rhywiol gariad synhwyrus,
kirkas rohkaisevia rinnat sininen aseiden suihkulähde luvut unelmia,
отечени затворене ветрови врте кључале блиставим Нигхт цара Афар,
uitgekleed schaduwen avond vrijheid billen ronde,
gnister blomstrende charms sprer stillinger brennende herligheter seng,
երկրային շուրթերը ժպտում հրամայական թարթիչներով բոցավառվող լուսաշող գագաթնակետն համբուրեց,
poete o multitudine de extaz fluxul de sucuri,
疲れたメロディーの真っ只容赦放射点滅呼気甘い漂流夢.

Its not always we speak what our heart feels, we code, decode, encrypt, decrypt and when the final word comes out of our mouth its not how it started. The final output mostly is based on the people who are at the receiving end and the particular scenario and not exactly what we thought. Not too many people in this world speak the language that originates from their heart. Slowly we forget that even hearts can speak too. Childhood is one phase where always hearts speak, they don't think about logics, society, dignity, professionalism, gentleness and any other illusions. Smile is one such language which when spoken from heart is the best language ever spoken in this world. Try using it at least once in a day. Have a smiling Monday. Thanks for your comments and favs
உயிர் துளிர்க்கும் நொடியிலிருந்து உடனிருக்கிறது இரண்டு மொழிகள்,
அழுகையும் புன்னகையையும்,
இவ்வுலகத்தின் சுழற்சிக்குள் அவ்வுயிர் சிக்கும் வரையில்,
இதயம் தான் பேசுகிறது எல்லா உயிர்களுக்கும்,
சாதி, மதம், உயர்ந்தவன், தாழ்ந்தவன் என்று எந்த பேதமுமில்லை இந்த மொழிகளுக்கு,
உலகில் வேகமாய் அழிந்து கொண்டிருக்கும் மொழிகளில் இவைகளையும் சேர்த்துக்கொள்ளலாம்,
ஆனாலும் உலகில் தோனறும் ஒவ்வொரு உயிரும்,
மனித மொழி கற்கும் வரையில் பேசிக்கொண்டே இருக்கிறது,
இதயத்தின் மொழிகளை,
இதை உணர்வதற்கு செவிகள் தேவையில்லை,
இன்னொரு இதயம் போதும்

"Avoid tunnel vision, let the edges compete for attention in the frame."
If waxwings could talk, I imagine the conversation went something like this: (on the right) "Hey, I was here first, why don't you just make like the birds and flock-off!"..... (the left one responds)--"Oh ya, you and whose army gonna' make me birdbrain!"
Because mountain ash berries ferment and produce alcohol after the first frost, sometimes the birds get quite drunk. CBC News did an interesting story that went viral recently about Yukon's "drunk tank" for waxwings www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/drunk-birds-sober-up-in-envi...
