Another view of the Common Yellowthroat that visited in the Spring of 2021. I like the questioning look on his face. Thanks for visiting.
when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality :-)

The thief was surprised to see the display of power..raw..untamed arcane energy, she had been questioning that this isn't real but just smoke and mirrors..however..when his hands lit up with what was almost the small power of a storm between his fingers...her disbelief turned to belief and her journey was ready to begin..
Great Pondhawk dragonfly #odonatagallery #vero
Great Pondhawk dragonflies, like this one, are not found near where we live, at least they weren't when we saw this one. This one seems to be questioning what I was doing but stayed around long enough to photograph. I'm probably reading that intent into its look, as it might have been watching some other insects, or looking for other insects, to see if it could catch them.
Scientific name: Erythemis vesiculosa.
Date: March 15, 2018
Location: Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park, southeast of Miami, Florida

My heart fry in the air without questioning heaven.
When you think of men .... My lost soul cry in the wood.
Won’t share life and death - I am sad and lonely.
" I crave intimate love. Words that make my soul dance, a touch that gives me goosebumps, eye contact that electrifies my entire body, a kiss that could have me questioning whose air I am breathing. " ♥
say you'll always kiss me ♥
It isn't everyday that I see something that makes me do a serious double take, questioning what I saw, expecting the worst but getting the best. With a pair that drew the attention of many after sunrise, my attention was focused on the night portion. In the damp cool still air, the echo of the non-turbo IC GP40R that still retains its ratty, yet classic death star paint screaming uphill with its perfectly paired BC Rail Dash-9 assisting was absolutely perfect.

This week's Happy Caturday April 9 2022 theme is "Eye Contact." Here she is looking at me indulgently and questioningly - what are you trying to accomplish with the camera this time?
From 2022. For the last image in the series exploring an abandoned sanatorium, I thought I'd leave with a more uplifting photo. This beauty poked her head in to one of the lab rooms, curious to see someone in a place she'd likely never seen anyone before. Rather bold for me to suggest this, but she reminded me of Steve McCurry's famous 'Afghan Girl'. They both have the same questioning look at the photographer, I suppose.
Entre deux instants d'un travail aussi méritoire que nécessaire, il arrive que les travailleurs du service voirie passent par quelques courts instants de questionnement avant de reprendre la route.
Des questionnement philosophiques, politiques, culturels, sociologiques, scientifiques, intimistes...
Ou tout simplement des questionnements très pragmatiques.
Parce qu'il y a un temps pour tout, après tout...
Ever felt like going somewhere else?
Away from all this chaos
I've been questioning my mental ill
Breaking for my day up
You give it all but it's never enough
I hold on but the day's never done
Let me go, yeah
'Cause I can't go on
Running from myself, running from myself
Running from myself, running from myself
Running from myself, running from myself
Ever felt you're going nowhere fast?
Tripping over nothing
Every time I try to change my past
I go falling down the river up the blue again
I give it all but it's never enough
I hold on but the day's never done
Let me go, yeah
'Cause I can't go on
Running from myself, running from myself
Running from myself, running from myself
Running from myself, running from myself
Let me go, let me go, yeah
Can't go on
Can't keep running, can't keep running
Can't keep running, can't keep running
Can't keep running, can't keep running
Running from myself, running from myself
Running from myself, running from myself
This cow was questioning me on my ability to frame a good photo of her. Note the ear tag says OA, hence the title.
LIU Wei, plastic bags (2017), 120x240 cm
LIU Wei repurposes everyday materials to explore perception, societal contradictions and environmental impact by transforming post-industrial objects – especially plastic bags – into intricate wire mesh artworks. Glossy, vibrant and cheap but, simultaneously, toxic plastic bags embody both convenience and ecological harm. Through months of meticulous labour, LIU reshapes the waste materials into luminous forms, questioning whether discarded remnants of modern life can find redemption through artistic reconfiguration.
His work invites reflection on the long-term consequences of industrialisation, as the PVC in his objects takes a millennium to degrade. While these artworks will ultimately vanish, their message endures, offering a striking meditation on waste, permanence and the role of art in confronting crises.

LIU Wei: "Wald der Verwirrung" (2017), Plastiktüten, 120x240 cm
LIU Wei verwendet Alltagsmaterialien, um Wahrnehmung, gesellschaftliche Widersprüche und Umweltauswirkungen zu erforschen, indem er postindustrielle Objekte – insbesondere Plastiktüten – in filigrane Kunstwerke verwandelt. Glänzende, leuchtende und billige, aber gleichzeitig giftige Plastiktüten verkörpern sowohl Bequemlichkeit als auch ökologischen Schaden. In monatelanger akribischer Arbeit formt LIU die Abfallmaterialien zu lebendigen Bildern um und erforscht die Themen der Kontamination. Seine Arbeiten regen zum Nachdenken über die langfristigen Folgen der Industrialisierung an, denn das PVC in seinen Objekten braucht ein Jahrtausend, um sich abzubauen. Während diese Kunstwerke letztlich verschwinden werden, bleibt ihre Botschaft bestehen und bietet eine eindrucksvolle Meditation über Abfall, Beständigkeit und die Rolle der Kunst bei der Bewältigung von Krisen.

"You, when it's good I'm questioning | You, then I stop to take it in | Is my head in the way? | Cause my heart can't explain | Where we going now? | Build it up, we tear down | Cared before but baby | Now I don’t give a fuck | All the way down | On a one way to you | I'm on my way down | No matter what you're going through" Lyrics from "All The Way Down" by Kelela
Photo taken at Le Monde Perdu - Spring
Something exists in spring
It's not there the rest of the year
It goes as soon as summer starts
And leaves a questioning atmosphere
As if the color had been switched on
And in a moment
Turned off again
Nature is never more than herself
And human nature never the same
Because I think there are
Certain memories which will never fade

Love me without fear
Trust me without questioning
Need me without demanding
Want me without restrictions
Accept me without change
Desire me without inhibitions
For a love so free . . . Will never fly away.
~ Dick Sutphen
My love's been proven
It's you that's been
Not tryna be exclusive
You're only interested
When you feel like someone's stepping up
And I start questioning this situationship
And all the time that I've put in
You're not supposed to be here
Why can't you just let me heal?
You don't feel love
You just don't want me to move on
Through the rain the flowers are blossoming
Through with pain, back to doing me again

Some of my followers may be questioning my ability to identify vegetables and flowers with good reason. However, I planted this myself and am pretty sure that it is a tomato...snicker.
Thank you to all who try to educate me on the stuff in my images.
for serious carnivores, grilling is a giant overkill. not to mention questioning the landscape maintenance.

Always waiting at my door
Never questioning my love
You don’t know what’s going on for sure,
But I like, that I never have to try
When I’ve got you in my sight
When I’m heading to the brink
You can stop and make me think
Find the greatest joy in everything
And I know, that I can always cry
When I’m laying at your side
Well it’s true, when I’m with you,
I forget about time, I feel alright

The name Galgenstraat refers to the view you had of the Galgenveld from Prinseneiland. Criminals were first put to death on Dam Square near the Waag by strangulation or hanging, then the corpses were taken by boat to Amsterdam North. There, the corpses of convicted criminals dangled, clearly visible to everyone so that they had a deterrent effect. The corpses were left hanging until the ropes perished or were pecked to pieces by crows.

(Agalychnis callidryas) Many scientists believe the red-eyed tree frog developed its vivid scarlet peepers to shock predators into at least briefly questioning their meal choice.
These iconic rain-forest amphibians sleep by day stuck to leaf-bottoms with their eyes closed and body markings covered. When disturbed, they flash their bulging red eyes and reveal their huge, webbed orange feet and bright blue-and-yellow flanks. This technique, called startle coloration, may give a bird or snake pause, offering a precious instant for the frog to spring to safety.
Their neon-green bodies may play a similar role in thwarting predators. Many of the animals that eat red-eyed tree frogs are nocturnal hunters that use keen eyesight to find prey. The shocking colors of this frog may over-stimulate a predator's eyes, creating a confusing ghost image that remains behind as the frog jumps away.
Red-eyed tree frogs, despite their conspicuous coloration, are not venomous. They are found in tropical lowlands from southern Mexico, throughout Central America, and in northern South America. Nocturnal carnivores, they hide in the rain forest canopy and ambush crickets, flies, and moths with their long, sticky tongues.
Red-eyed tree frogs are not endangered. But their habitat is shrinking at an alarming rate, and their highly recognizable image is often used to promote the cause of saving the world's rain forests.
Fa sempre paura quello che non si capisce. E ragionare è sempre più difficile che allinearsi senza farsi mezza domanda. (Cit.)

The green and the light blue of the sea that fades into the sky
What you don't understand is always frightening. And reasoning is always more difficult than aligning without questioning themselves
anyone had forgotten what this tree looked like.
Having photography as a hobby has many benefits over philately; the hours spent inhaling fresh air whilst exploring the natural world, the locomotive advantages of moving your backside off the sofa, not to mention the chance to meet like minded togs, although I can live without the questioning scowls from the Bank Manager as you justify the necessity of that new lens purchase.
Furthermore, it is the effect it has on simply opening our eyes as we become acutely aware of the changing light, the graceful flow and development of the clouds as they dance and flit across the sky and how a scene can change dramatically from one moment to another.
I’n't nature wonderful!

Happy Caturday 2.1.2021 "Make me smile"
In the morning, Timmy likes to lie in front of our door for a
while, on the doormat with the three cats, and check everything that happens in front of the house. Here he examines me questioningly "is your head better again?"
The story about it: in the afternoon of Christmas Eve, after the arrival of sister and brother-in-law, I began to set the coffee table. The good coffee set is upstairs in the living room closet.
So the upper cupboard door was open when I put something from the table on the bottom off the cupboard. And while straightening up again, hit my head full force against the corner of the upper cabinet door. "Not Christmas Eve to the emergency room!" was my first thought, the second is not ready for print ;-)
I voluntarily went to the ground because my feeling told me that otherwise this could happen involuntarily in a moment. My sister quickly fetched a cold wet washcloth, which I pressed against the wound.
After a short time I was able to get up and walk up and down the living room cursing with the washcloth pressed against my head. Then I saw Timmy asleep on the terrace on the bank and went out to him to let him comfort me a little. I squatted down in front of him and his reaction amazed me a lot:
He opened his eyes a little crack at first, but when he saw that
washcloth on my head, he snapped his eyes wide open, sat up, and got his little head very close to the problem area and sniffed it. Maybe he would have liked to lick a little blood ;-)
Then he looked at me and rubbed his head against mine. I
immediately felt much better, the pain subsided and a smile
crossed my face :-)
Since then I have to examine two heads in bed in the morning and see if some crust can be scraped off ;-)

This bird was seen at Virginia Lake and had us questioning what it was, It did one spin in front of us and Judy thought that is might be a phalarope. We also wondered if it was a stilt sandpiper.
Confirmed by Ken to be a Phalarope Another rare sighting for us
It is migratory, wintering in inland salt lakes near the Andes in Argentina.[2] They are passage migrants through Central America around March/April and again during September/October Wikipedia"

Some nights, the silence gets loud. You sit still, but your mind keeps moving replaying, questioning, feeling everything at once. Not every moment needs fixing. Some are just meant to be felt.

نشست و برای زمانی دستان خود را نوازش کرد. با کف دست با تامل و نه از سر حوصله که از سر واکاوی، نه و حتی نه، از تدقیق حافظه شاید، با کف دست روی دست دیگر را نوازش کرد. احساس کرد به اونزدیکترشده
She sat there and for a long while, not forbearingly, not enduringly, but questioningly, not even, to test memory, and even maybe to correspond, caressed the back of one hand with the other. Wasn’t he closer

'Peace activist Rachel Corrie, crushed to death in Gaza in 2003 by an Israeli army bulldozer destroying sections of Rafah city, wrote in her diary:
"I just want to write to my mom and tell her that I'm witnessing this chronic, insidious genocide and I'm really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature."
Rafah, like the rest of Gaza's cities and villages, is now gone - laid waste in that genocide Rachel Corrie saw unfolding 20 years earlier.' - Jonathon Cook

A year ago I took this photo and I felt at the time 2018 had been full of Photographic highlights. This year I feel I have stagnated it’s not been a great year. My trips to the Lakes and one trip to Scotland produced no keepers, maybe by the end of 2020 I will look back to 2019 with more fondness if I haven’t deleted most of my library by then. This frustration has led to me questioning my gear. I’ve been juggling 3 systems, Canon, Fujifilm and Olympus. Of course it has nothing to do with the gear but it doesn’t help lumping in gear decisions when planning a photo trip. So Ill box up my Olympus and sell on, use my Canon gear for local coastal and the Fujifilm for backpacking trips. I get out more and take fewer photographs on those outings. AND RELAX IN MY PHOTOGRAPHY!!!
