“A lifetime isn't forever, so take the first chance, don't wait for the second one! Because sometimes, there aren't second chances!
And if it turns out to be a mistake? So what! This is life! A whole bunch of mistakes! But if you never get a second chance at something you didn't take a first chance at? That's true failure.”

If ever there was a "once in a lifetime" encounter for me, it would have to be seeing these beautiful cranes while my daughter and I were out exploring. And they had a baby, too, which yes, I did get pictures of the baby also.
Never was I so excited and happy to have some nice long glass so I could be close without disturbing these beautiful creatures. Photography Gods were with me that day. I hope you enjoy this shot half as much I did getting it. It really made my day.
This was once a busy spot in Steveston BC when the local fish packing plants were running at full speed. Now everything lies in ruins and disrepair as people stroll by not even knowing what once was!! Vlog Below!!
After much love and care for over 4 years, one of my air plants has finally bloomed! 😃
Well, to my surprise, I just learned that air plants only bloom once in their lifetime. 😥
Once blooming is over, baby air plants will be produced, and they will eventually mature into their own “adult” air plant. 😊
Such a beautiful circle of life! 💖
PS: I recognize it's not the best photo. The light was flat yesterday, but I am too lazy to take another one today. Indoor flower macro shots are not easy to take IMO; I applaud all the macro photographers out there! 👏👏👏

In your eyes I'm alive
Inside you're beautiful
Something so unusual
In your eyes I know I'm home
Every tear, every fear
Gone with the thought of you
Changing what I thought I knew
I'll be yours for a thousand lives
I'm free as a bird when I'm flying in your cage
I'm diving in deep and I'm riding with no brakes
And I'm bleeding your love, and you're swimming in my veins
You've got me now
Been waiting for a lifetime for you
Been breaking for a lifetime for you
Wasn't lookin' for love 'til I found you
For love, 'til I found you
Skin to skin
Breathe me in
Feeling your kiss on me
Lips are made of ecstasy
I'll be yours for a thousand lives (a thousand lives)
I'm free as a bird when I'm flying in your cage (so lost)
I'm diving in deep and I'm riding with no brakes (no luck)
And I'm bleeding your love, and you're swimming in my veins
You've got me now (now)

IN ANOTHER LIFETIME, WE WILL BE BRAVE ENOUGH TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER OUT LOUD.

A Taurid fireball meteor blazes green by the Moon while totally eclipsed. Photo captured from the city of Roanoke! I was only a few shots in from changing lens from my 70-300 mm to my 18-200 mm and best of all I was taking a photo while it occurred. Incredible to witness and once in a lifetime to capture! Red and Green for the Holidays. I am still high from the capture!

The splendid, if occasionally jaded, late Georgian / early Victorian houses and hotels cosying up to the cliff on Marine Parade in Dawlish have a grandstand view of both the railway line and the sea-front. Something the lucky residents will no doubt appreciate, especially on dour, damp autumn days.
For anyone watching now they will see Cross Country's 9.42am Newcastle - Plymouth Saturday's only HST service (1V54) hurrying by trying to make up some 10 minutes of late running. Sadly it was an ask too far on this occasion with arrival in Plymouth also 10 minutes behind schedule.
Doing the honours are power cars 43321 up front, and 43207 nearest the camera. The train is just about to enter Kennaway Tunnel, one of several short ones on the stretch to Teignmouth as the line alternates between burrowing through the cliffs and riding alongside the exposed seawall just feet from the water.
When the shot was taken the seawall path was closed as a prelude to engineering work to raise it and better protect the railway from the increasingly frequent and damaging winter storms - work that is now complete.
Almost two years since this shot was taken, but seems like a lifetime ago. Best viewed full-screen - commenting off for this one, thanks.

Tasman Lake and Tasman Glacier, Mount Cook, New Zealand.
Haupapa / Tasman Glacier is the largest glacier in New Zealand. It is nestled deep in Mount Cook National Park. The Glacier is now approximately 27 kms long and 600 metres deep.
Settled in its own terminal lake, the 300-500-year-old ice shelf is slowly tearing away, depositing icebergs of all shapes and sizes in to the water. The lake is one of only a few in the world that contains icebergs. I did a boat tour on this lake and I will post pictures of close-ups of the Glacial shelf and ice-bergs. You can just see the shelf of the glacier at the end of Tasman Lake. For scale, those little dots you see out there are tour boats, and a few scattered ice-crystals.
Eventually the glacier will retreat entirely, and the lake will reach its maximum size. In 1973, there was no terminal lake at all, and by 2008 it had grown to 7kms in length. The current period of rapid melting began in the 1990s and between 2000 and 2008 alone, the glacier terminus receded 3.7 km.
I was visited the before the fires from Australia turned many of the New Zealand Glaciers Brown.

I really appreciate your visit and kind comments.
Special thanks to all who fave my work.
I have always had the oddest affinity with the Mackinac Bridge which connects the two halves of Michigan. I remember as a very little girl, crossing that bridge in my parents '59 Chevy station wagon (the one with the winged tail lights). My mother and father chatted on about the amazing Mac that had opened up a few years before this family trip from the suburbs of Chicago to the UP. They talked about the 5 men who had died building that bridge and how it was the longest suspension bridge in the world...at the time. Little did I know that many years later I would be living in Michigan and get to know a man who's father was one of those 5 who lost their lives.
On the way back home from that trip we were in a serious accident when a man plowed into the back of that Chevy wagon. I remember being in the hospital and little else that day. Fortunately no one was killed, but the poor Chevy was written off. We moved to Africa not long afterward, but I never forgot the Mackinac bridge and listening to that conversation, as little as I was at the time. It was a strange moment in 2021 when I stood looking at that bridge again for the first time since that day. I wondered how that it stands unchanged and even the price of crossing has only risen 75 cents since the bridge opened, yet so much of life has passed since then. Standing there I felt I had come full circle (for now at least).
