I always think I should add notes to a picture but I always struggle with that.

Note the canopy is very slightly open - it was a hot day! One of few female pilots on the display circuit, Isabel tore up the skies over Old Warden. A magnificent sight and sound.

Flamborough, UK.

Every summer has a story...

I saw people crossing my brain

he wears a bowler hat ...

But I can't see his face ...

hard to see his face ...

one day two crows

perched on his shoulder

to provide information about his death

he just lifted his hat a little

as if to say

"... I'm painting your life ..."

Have a wonderful evening!

Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie

Immortal fear, that voice so clear

Through broken walls, that scream I hear 🎶

Note: this fuzzy, wee bee was found deceased, presumably of natural causes. No bees were intentionally harmed for this photo.

I have always granted myself the freedom to exercise artistic license and pursue whatever brings me joy. Currently, shots from my cellphone and digital AI artwork fulfill that purpose, at least for the time being.

If in doubt which is my work and which is Generative AI, just look for the watermark on my photography.

Abandoned Chuch

Tiny blossoms of an Echeveria succulent captivated me enough to make something complimentary of them.

About 10cm in length.

Quick note - Black Mask isn't African-American. As you can see, in the closeup with more intense lighting, his skin is red.

DCZV Profiles:

Black Mask/Roman Sionis:

As the son of one of the most influential mobsters in Gotham, Roman had high expectations to live up to. After his father's death at the hands of the GCPD, Roman took up his father's mantle of the Black Mask -- Head of Gotham's underworld. In a chance encounter with Batman and the dead Robin, his mask was welded to his face when the latter kicked him into a furnace.

Great White Shark/Warren White:

Warren White, otherwise known as "Great White Shark" after a vicious attack from Mr. Freeze, used to be a crooked financier who embezzled millions from his company's pension fund. After pleading insanity in a court case, White was sent to Arkham Asylum, where he endured torture from his various cellmates. After escaping in a riot set up by the Scarecrow, White climbed his way to the top of the food chain and established himself as one of the top arms dealers in Gotham City.

More to come. I really like the tusks on BM's mask.

SUNRISE 4-3-2018 SEEN FROM BACKYARD, TAKEN WITH SAMSUNG NOTE 5.

Note pollen on leg that has already been collected.

The Moon over Melvich Bay. The moment I saw the moon, the opening lyrics of the song Driving Sister by Mott The Hoople started running around my head. If you don’t know who they are, do yourself a favour and search them out.

A music club is starting at my friend's school and she asked me to create something w/ a rose & music notes (I understand the notes, but why a rose???) for.... a flyer? I have no idea - haha. I guess I'll upload this anyway.

i wish that this natural scene can be preserved for future generations to see

For entirely non-train reasons I found myself at Cherrywood West on the first day of 2025. Turned on the scanner just in time to hear H19 call the approach to Cherrywood. It was a pleasant surprise - though not entirely unexpected - to see a pair of veteran SD60's come around the bend a few moments later. Some last minute adjustments to my camera settings (mostly) saved the day as the sun kept peeking in and out from behind the clouds.

Des étais un peu partout, le sol cuisine qui cède.... Cela devient dangereux .
