This is dedicated to my poetic friend landa grazioli hope you like it my friend.

Seagulls are fondly remembered in Utah for helping Mormon settlers deal with a plague of crickets. The seagull is now the state bird of Utah and a monument in Salt Lake City commemorates the event, known as the ‘Miracle of the Gulls’. Seagulls are very clever. They learn, remember and even pass on behaviours, such as stamping their feet in a group to imitate rainfall and trick earthworms to come to the surface. Seagulls’ intelligence is clearly demonstrated by a range of different feeding behaviours, such as dropping hard-shelled molluscs onto rocks so that they break open so they can eat them, and following ploughs in fields where they know upturned grubs and other food sources will be plentiful.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it, the vintage watch in a miracle cure...

 

I had two possible subjects for "Vintage", a brass thread counting glass that my mom (magrit k.) got during her dressmaker apprenticeship, and an automatic wristwatch that had belonged to my father. The plan was to combine these two items. I placed the thread counter's magnifying glass over the date, and while I was checking out different positions of thread counter, watch, and camera, all of a sudden the seconds hand appeared on my camera's display. Now you might think that this is nothing special, the seconds hand of a watch does move, doesn't it? Well, this one didn't. For the past 15 or so years, it didn't move an inch. I've been wearing this watch nonstop for many years after my father died, and I had it repaired several times, but at one point it stopped working, and the watchmaker told me that the movement was finally beyond repair. And now the seconds hand started moving out of nowhere. You can tell that I was surprised. Even shocked a little when the watch started working again all of a sudden. Immediately, The Who's song "Miracle Cure" from Tommy popped up in my head, hence the title ;) So what I will do next is carry the watch to a watchmaker and have it cleaned and checked. I still can't believe it ;)

 

Technically, this is one single shot. I had focused on the dial, through the thread counter's magnifying glass, which explains the distortion of the dial. The main focus is, of course, on the magnificent seconds hand ;) The frame around the dial is the brass thread counter; the manufacturer was "Hostmann-Steinberg" which is the blurred lettering that you can see. Processed in DXO PL6, Lightroom, and a variety of Nik Collection filters.

 

Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!

She just had to check out what the bear was doing in the window!!

Don't expect miracles to arrive with fireworks and fanfares. They appear quietly, modestly, on Angels' wings.

The pretty bright yellow flowers in the foreground (Doronicum grandiflorum) are particularly interesting plants. Not only are you supposed to lose any scare of heights after eating some of their roots, but they can even make you bulletproof - if you dig out the roots on a Friday during the new moon and before sunrise. (Granted, Wikipedia dutifully points out the questionable source situation especially in regard to the second aspect. Don't say I didn't warn you.)

Jokes aside, the plants contain some sort of natural sweetener, and all herbivores, but particularly chamois, like to eat them. So people thought that eating these plants is what makes the chamois unafraid of heights and sure-footed even in the most daunting terrain.

Christmas Eve, a time to believe.

 

Wishing all my creative, nature-loving Flickr friends a warm and loving Christmas Eve. May you be surrounded by everything you hold dear.

Summer is Great for foody esp who love fruits- mangoes, jack fruit, black berries ... but the Charm of Monsoon is just enchanting!

I think I'll miss you forever,

like the stars miss the sun in the morning skies.

Such a BIG MIRACLE

In Such a Little girl

As I go through a difficult time of transition in my life with Alzheimer's slowly erasing the man that my husband once was to the sledgehammer horror of the Trump administration erasing the values and credibility of my country, my garden still gives me hope for the future. When I see the miracle of these Hellebores bringing such beauty to the world as they bloom out of the dark earth, I rejoice in the small miracles of daily life.
