The stamen slightly obscure the ovary in a downward glance...flower sex is the richest visual thing in the world. Wonder why we present our loved ones with flowers? It is because the flower presents the sexual organs with the wildest flare.
Here in my area of North Central Pennsylvania, I don't believe we've had any rain since I snapped this shot on September 5th. The garden is very dry. This day however, this Calendula flower, I think, was quite happy.
The edit I used for this photo (I use PicMonkey only) was simply one = Daguerreotype. I set very high standards for myself - keeping my photos original (and organic - no staging or disturbing of my subjects of course!), - uploading straight from the camera - absolutely no AI - only light cropping and possibly adding a bit of sharpness if needed. I thought this capture felt most moving in this Daguerreotype edit however, and possibly with the arrival of colder temps as Fall approaches, I'm being drawn to the feel of B + W.

Glasgow is a city of Scottish modesty and pride, education and illiteracy, Rangers and Celtic, industrialisation and gentrification, and affluence and poverty.
Taken in Glasgow's east end. Golden Bowl's door doesn't stay closed and lets in a howling draft in the winter. They do a brilliant veggie Chinese curry.
I would like to re-shoot this scene. I performed a fair amount of horizontal correction and I felt uneasy about it. The school building on the right had to be in the shot. The shadow in the bottom-left corner is from a car which I should have included in the frame.
Madam Guizot~ Modesty is a shining light it prepares the mind to receive knowledge and the heart for truth. #energy… t.co/wFcwdE5tmz (via Twitter twitter.com/EnergySaversCA/status/746730513960996864)

The story:
I met a little family at the market in Kep. My guide told me they lived and worked there. The little girl was playing with a broken mirror when she all of a sudden noticed me.
NOTE: I have a different version of this photo here: www.flickr.com/photos/aliasgrace/512546566/ Both versions are photoshopped because the light conditions were not good on location.
So many harbours and marinas these days seem to be boat parks for people to show off their wealth, like pristine 4WD's (SUV's) that have never seen a puddle in their lives. These boats are here for a purpose, but for the love of being on the water too. I like that.
Vintage book cover of the Dutch edition of the novel Modesty Blaise by Peter O'Donnell, with a photo of Monica Vitti from the film adaptation by Joseph Losey. Vitti's co-stars in the film were Terence Stamp, Dirk Bogarde and Michael Craig. Subtitle of the book: The Merciless Woman. Courtesy Geoffrey Donaldson Institute.
Original and versatile Monica Vitti (1931) is one of Italy's most famous actresses of the 20th century. She is most widely noted in the early 1960s for her starring roles in four classic avant-garde films directed by Michelangelo Antonioni. Later the glamorous blonde became the queen of the Commedia all’italiana, a film genre previously restricted to men.
Happy Wednesday....sans bokeh! ;) OK its SMOOTH bokeh!

Miss.Bailey reminded me of this quote today....thought it was fitting!
"i once had a garden filled with flowers that grew only on dark thoughts but they need constant attention & one day i decided i had better things to do." -story people-

Hibiscus trionum is an annual plant native to the Old World tropics and subtropics. It has spread throughout southern Europe both as a weed and cultivated as a garden plant. It has been introduced to the United States as an ornamental where it has become naturalized as a weed of cropland and vacant land, particularly on disturbed ground.

‘Janaki is tall, when she opened the wardrobe and I saw the array of clothes, it seemed right. There is stateliness in her modesty. The formal garments glistering there matched her presence almost weight for weight. She is pure gold.’

Hajja. Prima di sposarsi le ragazze in Yemen sono allegre come tutte le ragazze del mondo. Before marrying, yemenite girls are as joyful as everywhere else in world. Best viewed large.
Creative picture showing the view from inside a burqa on the streets of Herat. Overall, not a bad representation, but since the wearer's eyes would be closer to the screen than the camera lens, the view would be wider and clearer. I wore something similar on travels to the region and was impressed by the comfort, the usefulness, and the feeling of confident security my burqa gave me. Unfortunately it has been so stigmatized in the west and draws so much attention I fear it will never be common here. I do like how in Afghanistan, the eyes are universally covered, a nice step toward greater modesty.
I check my modesty in the mirror. I like the layers of black cover: long diamond niqab draped back over my long khimar over my abaya. My black-gloved hands are hidden.
