Maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming something...
Maybe it's about UN-BECOMING everything that isn't really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place...
The rumour was that, as part of the national celebration of the 75th Anniversary of the end of WWII (as far as the European theatre went, anyway) on the 8th May 2020, a flypast of fighters and bombers would be going home on a route which took them over our town, as indeed it had on a previous occasion. Now, I have very tall trees all over my property, in fact you could almost say that I live in a wood. This has the effect of giving me very small skies. I never see a sunrise or a sunset from my house. In addition I am currently prevented, by law, from leaving my property for the purpose of photography, under the terms of the present Covid19 lockdown regulations. Therefore, in order to give myself a better chance of getting a shot of the fly-past, at the rumoured time I took a camera and climbed onto the roof of my house. In events the route was obviously changed, as I could hear the fly-past taking place miles away probably following the route of the River Thames. Anyway whilst I was up there, I thought you might be interested in the view to the back of my house as the rhododendrons have started to bloom.

I'll see a pineapple popping out of my three year old plant!!
I finally transplanted it into a larger pot, hoping that will help!
It's so exciting to have both female and male partner visit at sunset and sunrise each day...looks to me like she might be having ducklings soon
I did a bit of research yesterday. This sheep often has dark liquid coming from the slit next to the eye. Sheep don't have a lacrimal gland, they have an infraorbital organ, a gland that produces a substance with unknown purpose. There are three theories about this substance. A: the moor substance, the more dominance. This could really be it. This sheep is the boss. B: the substance smells good (from a sheepical point of view) and could be a self-produced perfume. Maybe that's why my sheep look so befuddled. C: The substance is a self-produced skin-care. Sounds unlikely, but sheep have scent glands between their toes and while I thought that those interdigital glands produce a substance to nourish the keratin part of the toes, I read now, that the interdigital gland has a sexual function too. And I guess the feet smell better.

I threw a wish in the well
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
I looked to you as it fell
And now you're in my way
I trade my soul for a wish
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn't looking for this
But now you're in my way
Your stare was holdin'
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
It's hard to look right at you, baby
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
And all the other boys try to chase me
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
You took your time with the call
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all
But still, you're in my way
I beg and borrow and steal
At first sight, and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it
But it's in my way
Your stare was holdin'
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
It's hard to look right at you, baby
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
And all the other boys try to chase me
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
(Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)
It's hard to look right at you, baby
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
And all the other boys try to chase me
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
And you should know that
So call me maybe

THE CRITICS HAVE SPOKEN !!
'I was on a beautiful sim only to receive an IM from Twain. I'd heard he was a total asshole. His first words to me were: 'Hi Blondie !' I was disgusted ! Luckily, his agent, Craig Rogalski, www.imdb.com/name/nm8226307/bio/ quickly sent me a personal IM and smoothed things over. We agreed on a one week shoot on my sim. I wouldn't have to interact with Twain at all !
The rest of the movie crew was very professional ! As for the movie itself. It seems to have been well directed. I enjoyed the plot and the homey storyline.
I really must go now. [Arol Lightfoot, sim owner/Flickr photo artist]
'Twain's movie is virtual world. It isn't reality ( contain thought) [sandi / flickr artist]
'I was at the beach with Jax and we decided to drop in and catch Twain's latest movie. It wasn't as dark or mysterious as most of his films. I enjoyed the clouds drifting by. It reminded me of my younger days at the beach. Jax didn't say much about it .. but, then, Jax never says much. [shrugs] [Cat2812 Beachtime Editor/Flickr photo Artist]
'I really don't believe this is an original Twain movie ! Where is the desolation ? Where is the atmosphere ? Where is the dreamy quality ? .. Where is that lonely feeling ? Where is the hidden details ? This is a forgery ! I am going to tell Twain !! [Drєαmsᥫ᭡ / Flickr photo Artist /Dreamer ]
[Skippy sits back and enjoys his buttered popcorn, soymilk and invites his friends !! Looks at the bird flying overhead !!] [Skippy Beresford / Flickr Artist / Shines the light of Love ! ]
'Hmm? Twain who ? .... [Fabiola Rosenfeld/Flickr Photo Artist]
'I saw Arol's sim buried on a profile and I wanted to have a look. When I got there I was amazed at how beautiful and large it actually is ! So I approached Arol in the most polite way ... I, um , .. well ? Maybe not. She allowed my film crew a week to do the entire shoot. I chose Conrad L. Hall: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conrad_Hall : to be my cinematographer. Conrad has worked on films such as American Beauty and Cool Hand Luke .. he's brilliant !! It is true, this is not one of my standard films that feature a lot of derendering, dark, mysterious, atmospheric, depressing, nor a lack of storyline. As they say in the industry, I wanted to 'break an eye' and I did ! It may not do as well at the box office, .. but it is my film and I'm proud as punch !

This shot was from the same series on karekare where sun was exposed properly. I took 3 shot by using tripod with +-2EV and then digitally combine them in Photomatrix. And this image was finalize in PS. :D
Explored Oct 16, 2008
All of you motorcycle (not car) people ... this is the only motorcycle I could find and it is on a sign. This is a motorcycle club in the Northern Neck of Virginia. It is called Down-N-Dirty. I have only seen motorcycles parked there on occasional weekend evenings. Maybe you can identify the type of motorcycle on the sign.
Maybe a little bit over the top with the editing.....not sure what you think?? I quite like it :) Another image from Tenerife.
Thanks to all who view and comment on my images, much appreciated :)
Another stand with ceramics on the market in Midoun :)
Midoun is the central town on Djerba. A market takes place every Friday, and there are many old bazaar shops as well as modern department stores where haggling is unnecessary. In the town are also many hotels with swimming pools, a casino, and a golf course.

Kolejne stoisko z ceramiką na targu w Midoun :)
Midoun to centralne miasto na Dżerbie. W każdy piątek odbywa się tu targ, a na jego terenie znajduje się wiele starych bazarów oraz nowoczesnych domów towarowych, gdzie targowanie się nie jest konieczne. W mieście znajduje się też wiele hoteli z basenami, jest tam również kasyno i pole golfowe.
"I heard from God today and she sounded just like me
What have I done and who have I become
I saw the devil today and he looked a lot like me
I looked away, I turned away"
While waiting for our meal (previous posting), I walked two to three meters over onto the ramp up the merchants' bridge (Krämerbrücke), between two arches, one above me and one behind. I got this shot of a smartphone photog getting his shot. But the contrast between the dark rampway and the bright September sun was extreme, and the shot seemed not really unusable. So I fooled with it in Lightroom, increasing exposure overall and decreasing it on the bright spots. It's a bit strange, but maybe interesting. [OLY03433_lr_3000]

Maybe the sea no longer feeds the people of Mr. O’s town
but the Mr. O’s net still shimmer with song
strung with melodies, one note at a time,
stitched with love, heartbeat by heartbeat.
Walking out of the office after work one day, I saw this hibiscus blooming, but not yet open. Maybe tomorrow.
A small bird maybe 10-12 cms long and a migrant from China to India. They are often sighting foraging on the edges of paddyfields or around cattails and bushes.
The birds maintain a very low profile, almost hard to see unless we are specifically looking for them. They arrive during the peak harvest season where the fields are brown and hence camouflage very well in the fields.
I was after a Marsh Harrier that landed in the paddy fields and wasn't even looking for this warbler. I assumed this was the Clamourous Reed Warbler since that was making very loud noises and moved away to focus on a Rail. This year, there have been an increased number of sightings of this bird. Soon they will be on their way back once the reverse migration starts.
Thanks in advance of your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
