Rachel Platten很俏皮的一首歌,甚麼事都不會發生~

 

甚麼事都不會發生

如果你一直待在房間裡

甚麼事都不會發生

如果你太早離開這個派對

如果你不參與這個遊戲,你絕無法成為贏家

甚麼事都不會發生

如果你總是不敢冒險...

就放手嘗試

離開你的舒適圈吧~

Rachel Platten - Nothing Ever Happens

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB5INNI86fc

 

...

But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room

Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon

Never be a winner if you're not in the game

And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe

Make a little space and get out of your own way

 

A ticket out sits on her shelf

And gathers dust upon itself

Cause chasing chance is for the brave

Maybe soon she'll feel that way

 

But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room

And nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon

Nothing ever happens if you don't get hurt

And nothing ever happens if you never get dirty

Make a little space and go on, get out, go on get out

 

Leave what you don't need

You're free and the pieces will fall into place

You and you only who can make a little space and

And get out of your own way

 

She sees the sunlight through the cracks

It's only her who holds her back

And so she takes her deepest breath

Shuts the door and walks down the steps

An Azure-winged Magpie raises its vibrant blue tail, a likely sign of excitement, while gathering near an almost hidden pool. Captured from a low angle, this characteristic pose reflects the bird's social behavior

1977 photo by my late father with some post processing...

A European Turtle Dove walks in towards a small water puddle, perhaps pausing on its migratory journey south to northern sub-Saharan Africa to winter The setting is a vast, steppe-like landscape in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, offering a peaceful backdrop as the bird seeks refreshment.

I'm by no means a mushroom specialist and also not the biggest fan in the world in terms of mushroom dishes but I think this might be a nice penny bun. The forest below Easdon Tor in Dartmoor National Park was full of all sorts of fungi, the shamrocks added a nice bit of additional interest to the woodland scene. I would however not dare to pick any as I have no idea about what is delicious and what is lethal....

 

Here a video of our walk up to Easdon Tor and through the woods:

Collective 52 Photo Project.2/52 - Low Angle

There are a few of these old mansions which formerly belonged to rich businessmen in the city. Unhappily some of them have been left to rot and are in a very poor state of repair. This is sad because those that have been renovated are magnificent.

Artistic low-angle framing of a bronze statue of a warrior, viewed from behind, facing two prominent minarets.

 

The figure of the historical warrior is clad in armor, chainmail and wears a helmet.

A shield is visible on the left side of the statue.

 

In the background, two tall, ornate minarets rise towards a clear sky.

The composition places the warrior statue prominently in the foreground, creating a sense of depth and scale against the towering minarets in the background. The low-angle shot emphasizes the grandeur of both the statue and the architectural elements.

 

The natural sunset lighting creates a warm glow on the statue and the minarets.

Never thought I would use the above words together in one sentence but here you go...

 

The three juveniles out of four this year. Unfortunately the fourth one is very small (probably a male or late hatch), weak, and did not have a chance to fight for the food. So it was left behind. I wish all four of them were together, to complete the set.

This used to be the only road connecting the villages Kópasker and Raufarhöfn. But it has now been bypassed by a modern asphalt road.

After a recent trip to Kew Beach in Toronto, I thought it would be fun to visit a spot I haven't been to in 25 years; the Scarborough Bluffs.

After a quarter century, it's so great to see something with a new set of eyes ;)
