Christmas has come and gone, the New Year has begun its time to put away the holiday decorations.

The next three shots today are at Scotty's Garage and Barn, a motor and history museum and dining place on Flagstone Creek Road at Upper Flagstone Creek on a rather obscure back road to Toowoomba. In fact we only recently learnt of this place and unfortunately, we were unable to do the full experience as we were on our first hour into the trip and it wasn't fully open.

 

Of particular interest, after living my whole life in Brisbane and having driven to Toowoomba innumerable times, I never realised that this very rural by-way was an alternative and very interesting road up the Great Dividing Range. The joys of travel, discovering new things.

 

This place deserves more time than what we had and would be a feast for the camera lens. Here is a little more about it.

This is a sego lily or a mariposa lily. "Sego" is a Shoshone word, meaning "edible bulb," referring to the root organ that the Native American tribe considered a delicacy. "Mariposa" is a Spanish word for "butterfly," referring to its most colorful pollinators. About 60 species of sego lilies are native to western North America -- This is Gunnison's sego lily, Calochortus gunnisoni, named after explorer Capt. John Williams Gunnison, who was also honored by the naming of the Gunnison River and Black Canyon of the Gunnison. It thrives from mesas at the lower edge of the ponderosa pine belt to high mountain meadows.

The next to join us on the stage is MISS SL ♛ Romania, Abbie!

 

---

 

MISS SL ♛ Romania tells us, "The Zodiac sign i have chosen for this competition is Aquarius. In Latin, it translates to 'Water Bearer,' and it is the eleventh astrological sign in Western Astrology. The reason I have chosen this sign is when researching, I found that I can relate to many of its qualities, even though I myself am a Gemini. My styling is partially inspired by the Dutch designer Iris van Herpen. Her designs are a form of futuristic Avant Garde, made possible by intelligent use of fabrics and 3D printing for some unique styles. I have used the element of water as a base for my outfit, with the water flowing around my skirt. And of course, what water bearer would be caught without something to carry the water in."

  

MISS SL ♛ Romania is wearing a bodysuit, skirt, sleeves, and leg chains from Ersh. She adds shoes from KC Couture, jewelry from Orsini and Michan, and makeup from both Goreglam and Identity Faces.

  

Finally, she utilizes water around her skirt, a headpiece, and nails that she has created herself to help complete her ensemble.

  

Thank you, MISS SL ♛ Romania!

ONLINE PHOTO EXHIBITION. → note.com/shin_ikegami/n/nb29be9e76180

  

本投稿の作品群は SPACE K 代官山 で開催を延期していた個展の展示作品です。諸般事情と新型肺炎ウイルス感染症(COVID-19,SARS-CoV-2)の感染拡大とその影響で断念・期日中止の上で来年に延期しました。——The solo exhibition planned for SPACE K Daikanyama from September 10, 2020 will be postponed. I will postpone it to prevent the spread of COVID-19,SARS-CoV-2. This is the second postponement after the April postponement.

 

本来であれば2020年4月8日の展示を延期した後に同じ場所で9月10日から開催予定でした。先の展示を2月下旬に延期した中で今回の再度の延期・期日中止による断念は悔しいです。—— Originally, the exhibition on April 8, 2020 was postponed and it was planned to be held at the same place from September 10. While the previous exhibition was postponed in late February, I am disappointed at the abandonment due to this postponement.

 

延期先の期日については現状未定ですので来年初頭にお知らせします。ご容赦ください。また展示作品については新たに作品構成など別物を用意いたします。—— The postponement date is currently undecided, so we will inform you at the beginning of next year. Please pardon. In addition, we will prepare a new item such as the composition of the exhibited work.

 

※観賞の際はスマートフォンやパソコン画面の反射による影響を抑えるために暗闇で明度はそれぞれ3分の1程度でお楽しみください。——When watching, please enjoy in darkness with a brightness of about one-third each in order to suppress the influence of reflections on the screen of your smartphone or computer.

Great Horned Owl fledgling. San Simeon State park, CA.

 

I often wonder, when I find an Owl spot, how many generations of this particular Owl family have lived here.

Botallack, Cornwall

 

My last upload of 2022 and another image from the Cornwall tour with Mark, Geoff and Shelly. 2022 has been mainly a series of many low points with very few highlights for me, but Cornwall was definitely the pinnacle and an opportunity to get away and do something for myself with good friends.

 

I’ve not posted a lot this year, in fact it’s been my second lowest output (a measly 57) since I joined Flickr way back in 2015. So, I’ll bypass all the fake New Year’s celebrations this weekend and dive head first into 2023 next week. As the song says… things can only get better!

 

See you all in 2023 and many thanks for all the support and comments throughout the year.

We quite often see this cat sitting on the post outside the horse behaviour 'therapist's place'. I would like to think that it is the receptionist there.

 

We had a lovely sunny day today but for the next few days we have nothing but high winds and rain.

 

Happy Furry Friday everyone x

"My Way" is of course a very popular song. In this case, the title is meant literally: the premium hiking trail “Romika-Traumschleife” is right next to my house. This 12 km long circular hiking trail is worth seeing at any time of the year. In January 2025 it was covered with a very thin layer of snow - a rare sight in the ever-warming southwest of Germany!

This gorgeous little toad hopped across the boardwalk when we were visiting Cley and Salthouse Marshes!

Samburu National Reserve

Kenya

Elephant Bedroom Camp

 

Meet Mang’ati, a wild male elephant in Samburu National Reserve. He was named this by the guides in Elephant Bedroom Camp. His name means Enemy.

 

Elephant numbers have dropped by 62% over the last decade, and they could be mostly extinct by the end of the next decade. An estimated 100 African elephants are killed each day by poachers seeking ivory, meat and body parts, leaving only 400,000 remaining. An insatiable lust for ivory products makes the illegal ivory trade extremely profitable and has led to the slaughter of tens of thousands of African elephants.

 

If the elephants are to survive, the demand for ivory must be drastically reduced. As of 2011, the world is losing more elephants than the population can reproduce, threatening the future of African elephants across the continent. Bull elephants with big tusks are the main targets and their numbers have been diminished to less than half of the females. Female African elephants have tusks and are also killed, leaving an increasing number of orphaned baby elephants. As of 2017, there are more African elephants being killed for ivory than are being born.

 

Elephants are a keystone species. It means they create and maintain the ecosystems in which they live and make it possible for a myriad of plant and animal species to live in those environments as well. The loss of elephants gravely affects many species that depend on elephant-maintained ecosystems. - Wikipedia
