These wild cows and me got on really well. After some hours locals came along and adviced me to park my car elsewhere to avoid damage. As it happens my car is the cheapest on the market, but was brandnew. I followed the advice, but I was not the least concerned
This time next month there may be some kind of normality in the UK with the easing of most Covid-19 pandemic restrictions...'Normality' is already beginning with lunch-time diners - inside and kerbside - at Arthur's restaurant and cafe at Laugharne,west Wales,UK...You could feel the tensions of the past year easing just watching a scene as this.....Fingers crossed everyone...Keep safe,especially from the increasing threat of the Delta variant,and lets hope we can help the rest of the pandemic stricken world soon.
In distinction to Rarapan, Velvia is one of my favorite films, with color vibrancy unparalleled by other films (although I need to qualify that with need to get some Ektachrome in 120). Using a Fuji GSWII 690, was able to find some color during these days of distancing.
“It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
"So it is."

His final message:

All my very best,
Jack Layton
Le Canada a perdu un grand homme aujourd'hui.
Son dernier message:
"Mes amis, l'amour est cent fois meilleur que la haine. L'espoir est meilleur que la peur. L'optimisme est meilleur que le désespoir. Alors, aimons, gardons espoir et restons optimistes. Et nous changerons le monde.
Chaleureusement,
Jack Layton
so with much deliberating, i've decided to discontinue my 365. I had initially put it off for a while because I didn't want this to happen and needed to feel ready, but i got caught up in enthusiasm and jumped a little too early. I don't like using outtakes for days im unispired. but don't you worry, ill start a new one up soon. I just need some time to recollect myself. and of course I will still be uploading. thanks so much for the support ive gotten thus far. dont give up on me.

I captured no new photographs during the weekend, so I'm still fooling around with my archive and textures. This time I used two more great textures from ASfotos (Thanks again, Adele!). The picture is also embellished with my lame attempt at poetry :-)
Best viewed Large, On Black.
May you all have a wonderful week!
Has the rain finally stopped or is this merely a short interlude before the next deluge? Our daily challenge is optimism or pessimism. Taken on my late afternoon walk along the Courtenay estuary.
