Finally finding time to pick the camera up again. Liked the light play in the green stones. Also thought the 'light' theme was cool, because Garbo is doing much, much better!

Just having fun editing. I removed the 2 dark spots as suggested by T.Morris (thanks, i didn't notice them) and replaced the file.
Several miles of walking along this logging road finally brings us near the forest trailhead that leads to Twin Falls. A most welcome sight.

Once I pondered optimism for the "in the future" challenge I just couldn't get it out of my head. I thought this photo was a good symbol for optimism :)
I believe if we remain optimistic, even through very difficult times, we grow! I also believe that if you are pessimistic through dark times, it will hinder your growth... (I could write forever on this topic, but I'd best go and make my tea :))
odc - in the future
Optimists are nostalgic about the future. ~Chicago Tribune.
It’s cherry blossom season in California again, and pretty pink trees everywhere are lining the streets of Sacramento! Every year, on days when I have limited time to capture images, I trespass on my neighbors’ front lawns, on the hunt for compositions with my macro lens. Hopefully they’re used to the crazy photographer lady in the neighborhood by now. This year, I’m experimenting with processing each chosen image with a different mood through bringing out different colors and tones- from conveying serenity using cool baby blue to bright optimism using warm gold tones.
An optimist is someone who orders a dozen oysters in the hope of being able to pay for them with the pearl he finds inside.

Optimismus
Ein Optimist ist ein Mensch, der ein Dutzend Austern bestellt, in der Hoffnung, sie mit der Perle, die er darin findet, bezahlen zu können.

Have a cheerful day, everyone... :)
I visited the lake again today. The Pelican remains at the lake. From a distance I watched as it sort of rambled forward, slowly exercising its open wings. It never attempted to take off.
If you look at the photo, the injured wing is its right wing, shown on the left here. No obvious deformities. From my observations and from what others have told me, this bird has been in place for at least two weeks. Because there is no obvious 'break'...or anything else obvious to the eye...it may be a muscle, ligament or tendon injury. Any of those might heal. My subjective interpretation of what I saw today was the Pelican was 'testing' its wings, to see how they would work. The photo looks 'normal', but I have to say that when the wings are folded, the right wing significantly droops and drags along the ground.
Though rescue seems unlikely, for a number of reasons, perhaps there is hope that the injury will indeed heal itself. And the bird does not LOOK ragged, undernourished or lackadaisical. It looks normal, except for the dragging wing and the inability, apparently, to fly.
“The New Year is a painting not yet painted;
a path not yet stepped on;
a wing not yet taken off!
Things haven’t happened as yet!
Remember that you are blessed with the ability
to reshape your life!”

I am asking that we stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. I am suggesting that as we go through life we “accentuate the positive.” I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good, that we still voices of insult and sarcasm, that we more generously compliment virtue and effort. ~ Gordon B. Hinkley
Even though the Corona Virus is causing a lot of doom and gloom, there is always optimism:
“If you're reading this...
Congratulations, you're alive.
If that's not something to smile about,
then I don't know what is.”
― Chad Sugg, Monsters Under Your Head
The New Year 2020 has rolled in, so let's hope it brings lots of good things. Happy New Year everyone

We were supposed to be painting the kitchen today, but, we both overslept ! Lol ! So instead I've been doodling and this is the result ... Influenced (I think) by the Pattern and Decoration Movement

Can you feel optimistic when you look at this photo? I do. Is it just a feeling or do the colors make me feel that! I really don't know.
Hope you like it

The Nasturtium flower can represent optimism, humor, and sociability, but also symbolize patriotism and victory in battle.
I like it for humor and sociability as this flower is edible and to surprise our guests, we use them in salads as shown in this link: www.flickr.com/photos/31155442@N03/50493346968/in/datepos...
