This is Zeb - a high-content wolfdog that lives at the Yamnuska Sanctuary near Calgary, Alberta. For some reason he would make eye contact with me and was interested in what I was doing.
All it takes is few moments to stand in solitude in front of the magnificence of nature. You immediately realize that your worries, stress, sadness are evaporating. You feel like a child held in your mother's arm, protected from all perils of life that were consuming you. But do you feel fear? Maybe not. But you certainly feel that you are like a baby, and you need her to hold you firm.
This photo feels very close to my heart. It shows me the light of hope piercing the darkness of a long night. The shadow is being lifted by the hymn of a bright day ahead.
Our neighbour's cat the other day.
I spotted him on the post, so after grabbing my camera, I crept closer and closer, taking the odd photo. All the while, he kept staring at me. Eventually he got bored of my antics and jumped down.

A Marine MARSOC unit advances into the face of the unknown...
Advancing, though we know not the peril we may face.
Darkness.
It hides, trapping objects and beings in it's choking mist.
Always coveting what it cannot have.
Ever trying to regain lost ground.
Stealing our humanity, grinding us down.
In the depths it cries aloud, "ALL IS MINE".
It's thirst for blood, unquenchable.
It reaches out and snares the timid, the simple, the blind.
They go to the edges of the depths, they know not the danger they face.
Like the lion, it's stillness is peaceful.
They are drawn to it's strength.
They are captivated by its power.
They fall to it's clutches, and in their frailty, blow away like chaff in the wind.
But even though the darkness has power over the weak.
It has no chance against...
The Light.
The warmth He grants us.
The strength He gives us.
The light advances, and the darkness shrivels away.
It cannot shield itself from...
The Light.

Ok, I'd be a liar if I said www.flickr.com/photos/129897679@N05/ didn't inspired this. I wanted a MOC to show off the APC I built, and I think it turned out great.
Creds to Yitzy for the awesome gas/water barrel design.
GOD BLESS & AND HAVE A GREAT LIFE!!!
It's nice when a plan comes together.
On a couple of previous early morning trips to the fen I had noticed this male Marsh Harrier enjoying the sunrise on this perch - on the farside of the river at its widest point (or course).
As I couldn't get any closer without a boat I decided to take the 800mm + 1.4 hoping that he would be there again.
On arrival I could see he was there - but mist was hanging over the river so I stood behind a bush waiting for it to lift.
Once it cleared I had a couple of minutes before he flew off. On a previous occasion I had stood there for a good 20 minutes, so don't think it was my presence that made him leave, he had probably finished his morning ritual of stretching and preening - and it was time for breakfast.
Ability of light to pierce through the space is very nice to catch on a photo. Yet it creates a contrast that can easily turn to overburn. I'm dealing with that art my whole photo-life and never really get the grasp on it. The light is burning through my space and my lenses. I must try a neutral density filter someday. But I always remember that AFTER the photoshoot, haha...
Here's just a random fig I put together, it's not supposed to be realistic it's mostly based off of multiple uniforms, Enjoy!

CSXT train Q364 (Avon Yard, Indiana to Selkirk manifest) pierces the morning fog as it passes old New York Central Tower 30 just east of Union Station near MP 237.5 on modern day CSXT's Mohawk Sub mainline. I'm not sure when the tower was built, but presumably between 1912-1914 in conjunction with the new station. I have no idea when it closed but I understand it served as a yard office in the early Conrail era but is now derelict.
Leading the train is CSXT 8903 an EMD SD70AH-T4 blt. in 2019.

Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!
I’m not sure if I caught this Tufted Duck (Aythya fuligula) by surprise or if it was just naturally suspicious of my presence but it sure gave me a look.
Dobbenteich, Oldenburg, Germany
The appearance of daylight often heralds the departure of both mist and mystery from a shadowed morning scene, and so it was a short while later here--but for these few minutes, this beautiful light streaming into the mist added a great deal more atmosphere than the shadows alone, on Pine Island Pond, near Uncertain, Texas.
On our recent trip to explore and photograph some of the southern swamplands, Josh Krasner and I arrived a day early and joined our excellent boatsman, John Winn, for a pre-dawn excursion on one of his small flat-bottomed swamp boats that are perfect for exploring the bayous in the greater Caddo Lake area. It was much, much colder than we expected being this far south--about 24 degrees F when we got on the boat. The frigid air turned out to be ideal for misty conditions although not exactly for comfort as the boat quickly plied the waters of Big Cypress Bayou toward locations where we could drift closely among the great trees and their moss canopies.
It was incredible from the first moment seeing this environment shrouded in billowing mist and grayscale shadows rich in mood, but when this early light started streaming between the tightly packed trunks, it was truly special.
Thanks for viewing!
As the evening flights pierce the evening sky the setting sun lights up the clouds and the Barley field. This field has now been harvested I think they made it just before the rains came back today, again.
There is a garden in every childhood, an enchanted place where colors are brighter, the air softer, and the morning more fragrant than ever again. Elizabeth Lawrence
