Going through a process of adjusting medications for heart related issues. Keeps me from getting out and shooting. Sometimes I think the cure is worse than the illness : )

Male Wood Duck
The Wood Duck is one of the most stunningly pretty of all waterfowl. Males are iridescent chestnut and green, with ornate patterns on nearly every feather; the elegant females have a distinctive profile and delicate white pattern around the eye.
These birds live in wooded swamps, where they nest in holes in trees or in nest boxes put up around lake margins. They are one of the few duck species equipped with strong claws that can grip bark and perch on branches.
Wood Ducks pair up in January, and most birds arriving at the breeding grounds in the spring are already paired. The Wood Duck is the only North American duck that regularly produces two broods in one year.
The Wood Duck nests in trees near water, sometimes directly over water, but other times over a mile away. After hatching, the ducklings jump down from the nest tree and make their way to water.
The mother calls them to her but does not help them in any way. The ducklings may jump from heights of over 50 feet without injury.
The oldest recorded Wood Duck was a male and 22 years. He had been banded in Oregon and was found in California.

Syringes for Etta's medication kept separate for cleaning and to stop cross-contamination. Glass bottles are ideal for this purpose. (Left ear/Right ear with Red ribbon; Pain-killer for the mouth).

That busted hand looks painful, but a well-pulled pint will take the edge off. Seen in central Galway, Ireland.
For the Macro Mondays theme Redux 2019 where we could select any of the themes that had been used all year, I chose "White on White". I shot six prescription medication tablets which are roughly the size of an aspirin.
HMM! And see you next year.
Version 2.0 is the second studio album by American rock band Garbage. It was released on May 11, 1998. With this album, the band aimed to improve and expand upon the style of their 1995 eponymous debut rather than reinventing their sound. Lead singer Shirley Manson wrote dark, introspective lyrics, which she felt complemented the songs' melodies.
Building on framework sound and style Garbage established on their debut set, Version 2.0 featured musical references to the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, songs featuring live strings, over 100 recorded tracks, and an interpolation of the Beach Boys and The Pretenders. The band said that the goal of Version 2.0 was to create a "rapprochement between the high-tech and low-down, the now sound and of golden memories." Butch Vig stated that the band did not want to reinvent their sound, as they "felt that we had carved our own turf on the first record and we wanted to take everything we did and make it better".
While Garbage had lyrical input from all band members, Manson was responsible for all the lyrics in Version 2.0.[5] Consequently, it was described by Manson as "more direct and more personal than the first. I was able to verbalize things a little clearer this time—I mean, I'm no Nick Cave, I'm never gonna be Bob Dylan. I do what I can to express myself."[4] The singer "tried to let the darker undercurrents come through to offset some of the pop melodies", adding that "like human beings, songs shouldn't be one-dimensional"
(from Wikipedia)
Happy 25th anniversary, Version 2.0!
"...Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
I've got to make a point these days
To extricate myself
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me
Or anybody else
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me"

Sometimes I just can't control my thoughts
No medications ever made them stop
All I think about is everything I'm not
Instead of everything I got
'Cause I'm scared they're all laughing, so I make the joke first
If I beat 'em to the punchline, then I can't get hurt
Yeah, I swear to God I'm tryin', but I don't know how to be
How to be a good friend to me
'Cause sometimes I just feel like I'm a freak
When I wake up, I just don't like what I see
All the way from my head right down to my feet
I wish that I thought differently
But I'm scared they're all laughing, so I make the joke first
If I beat 'em to the punchline, then I can't get hurt
Yeah, I swear to God I'm tryin', but I don't know how to be
How to be a good friend to me
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Change
Wonder if I'll ever really change, mmm
'Cause I'm scared they're all laughing, so I make the joke first
If I beat 'em to the punchline, then I can't get hurt
Yeah, I swear to God I'm tryin', but I don't know how to be
How to be a good friend to
The voice inside my head that's telling me I'm okay
Entertain it for a second, then I push it away
Yeah, I swear to God I'm tryin', but I don't know how to be
How to be a good friend to me

The digitalis ingredients were widely used in medicine, especially cardiology. In former times they had been used as cardiotonic medication, nowadays its still used to stabilize a unregularly heart rhythm which is to fast.
Its a beautyful plant while blooming.

Die Inhaltsstoffe der Digitalispflanze hatten weite Verbreitung in der Medizin, besonders der Kardiologie. Früher als herzstärkendes Medikament genutzt, wird es heute noch bei zu schnellem, unregelmässigem Puls zur Rhythmusstabilisierung verwendet.

It's International Cat Day today and I have always thought Milu has something international about her with her Latvian name and her Parisian style. Even though she is 15 years old, had most of her teeth removed a few months ago and has to take daily medication for thyroid issues, she is still our sweet glamour puss
Photo of when she was young and healthy. Sweet Daphne was always my first model. She is 13 now and on borrowed time but doesn't know it. She is eagerly waiting her special treats and loves her new bed. She has recovered from the surgery stopped chemo as it was making her sick and for now back to her crazy funny old self. Surgery of the aggressive cancer tumors was first then chemo next but its ruled out now as she very sick so she is on an experimental medication that is so far much easier on her. She is one tough old girl. Amazing really. Each day is a gift and we love her dearly

Happy Macro Monday!
13th February 2017:
Using my Macro Mondays photo for my photo of the day again, it took me long enough to get a decent photo of it as it was. Plus, I have no intention of going out in the weather we're having this morning!
It's a photo of Graham's heart medication.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)

Here is my lovely Parsley having a snooze in today's scorching weather. For those that are wondering, he is still doing very well! We went to see the vet last Friday and hadn't seen that vet since the beginning of the pandemic. She was utterly amazed. He has even put weight on, which I attribute to the variety packs of fish in broth that I give him on rotation. For anyone wondering, he is on a kidney diet, but we have found that a bit of fish perks his appetite up! He is still on a ton of medication and on the subq's, but only me and my bank account are bothered by it!

Himalayan salt, often called pink salt, is a type of rock salt mined from the Salt Range mountains in Pakistan, particularly near the Khewra Salt Mine. It's famous for its distinctive pink color, which comes from trace minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium.
Here are a few quick facts:
Uses: Commonly used in cooking, as bath salts, or in salt lamps for decorative and claimed therapeutic purposes.
Health claims: Some believe it has detoxifying or respiratory benefits, but scientific evidence is limited.
Flavor: Slightly milder than regular table salt, with a unique mineral
Granules are small particles or grains that typically range in size from very fine to coarse. They can occur naturally or be manufactured and are often used to describe materials that are solid, dry, and granular in texture.
Granules In Different Contexts:
Biology / Cell Biology:
Granules are small structures within cells, often involved in storage or secretion of substances.
Examples: Secretory granules in glands, granules in platelets (important for blood clotting), or cytoplasmic granules.
Pharmaceuticals:
Granules refer to a dosage form made of aggregated powdered ingredients.
They improve flowability, compressibility, and can be used for sustained release medications.
Food Industry:
Granules can refer to coarse grains of salt, sugar, coffee (like instant coffee), or seasoning mixes.
They often dissolve easily in water and are used for quick preparation.
Geology:
Refers to a specific particle size category of sediment, typically between sand and pebbles (~2–4 mm).
Found in riverbeds, beaches, and sedimentary rocks.
Astronomy:
Granules on the Sun are convection cells visible on its surface (photosphere).
They appear as bright areas with darker edges, caused by the movement of hot plasma.

Although I primarily use my flickr account as an outlet for my landscape photography, I do love to take photographs of different subjects. The lockdown of the last couple of months has meant that many of us have come to appreciate those who are closest to us even more. For many people that means closest family and perhaps just as importantly, our pets have also played an important role in the maintenance of our personal well-being. A couple of years ago we took on a couple of cats who we gave a better life to. That was a difficult challenge at the time because both had clearly suffered and needed a combination of patience, love and medication. However, we would not be without them and they have become a focal point of both our house and photography, be it with a complex DSLR or a mobile phone! This image shows our Siberian forest cat Bluebell in the gap between our house and fence!
Lots more packaged medication is coming with information in Braille embossed upon the cardboard or plastic containers.
Exposition time.
I've been away from Flickr for a while. Still been taking photos here and there, but not as much as I used to, and even then, I haven't been feeling much into editing and uploading anything. The pandemic has been hard on me as it has been for so many others.
On top of that, I recently got an ADHD diagnosis, which has required a lot of unpacking. On the one hand. it's been good because I've been learning so much more about myself, and am now receiving medication that has been immensely helpful. But on the other hand, looking back on my life under this new lens has been fraught with what-ifs and what-might-have-beens that are hard to escape. But it's a process, and overall a positive one.
(Yes, posting this under a photo of a squirrel is also poking a bit of fun at that ADHD stereotype of being easily distra-- SQUIRREL!)
I'm still here! And I hope to get back into more regular photography over time. As much as pushing myself might help, right now I feel like being patient with myself is what I need right now.

Tara needs medication for her allergy and a visit to the vet derserves a ramble along the streets of the city. I took some photos here and there, mainly a nice Vespa, but the icing of the cake was at the vet shop. I was greeted at the door by this nice boy and, once inside, I was told about his story. A rescued cat with kidney problems that now lives comfortably inside the vet shop.

No matter how I feel when I first prop my eyes open early in the morning, I always come alive and feel positive when I am out in the quiet countryside seeing the sights.
Caution: This medication may have side effects
