I realize there's something incredibly honest about trees in winter, how they are experts at letting things go.

2 a.m. and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake

"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?

I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season"

Yeah, we walk through the doors, so accusing, their eyes

Like they have any right at all to criticize

Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason

'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable

And life's like an hourglass glued to the table

No one can find the rewind button, girl

So cradle your head in your hands

And breathe, just breathe

Oh, breathe, just breathe

I realize it may sound innocent - perhaps naive - but one of the most surprising things to me about visiting Alaska was the rich color palette of the terrain. Despite being deep in Alaska, less than 250 miles from the Arctic Circle, the sun still holds its reign over the summer climate...and with nearly 24 hours of light, the vegetation has ample opportunity to grow.

Certainly, global warming, and glacial melt plays a role in seeing the deeply colored mountain range in the distance. It was surprising to me to learn that much of the green you see along the park road in Denali is vegetation growing atop the glaciers. All-in-all, I highly recommend taking the Kantishna bus tour (11-hours) in Denali, as it is the only method of getting deep into the park, with the opportunities to see as much of the geology, geography, .and wildlife possible.

While the namesake mountain is the primary calling card of this National Park, and rightfully so, it is only seen clearly by approximately 1/3 of the park's visitors, due to the near constant cloud cover. There is so much more, in terms of the vastness, grandeur, remoteness, and ecologic importance of this region to be experienced than simply the sight of Denali looming large above the subarctic plateau.

They only become irritations if you supply the irritability :-)

Another shot from my wildlife fix i while stranded in Tromso, Norway.

It was pretty quick to find a couple of Eurasian Oystercatchers that were protecting a nest area that had at least 1 young chick. You couldn't get anywhere near them since the nest was on an island behind a museum, but I quickly realized they were going down shore to find food so I simply sat amongst the rocks 600 yards down shore - - I ended up with many great views but I was still typically looking down at them - - not too many eye level opportunities - - this is getting closer.

I posted the Pinky and then realized I had snagged the wrong flower from the desktop, so got this one posted it and thought the date was wrong on it to then I realized that the date of theme posted was 3/18 so 3/23 was okay....wow! what a mix up in my head tonight, DATE good, TAGS good, in the group I think!

She was a little all over the place, that was for sure. But the good news is that when she loved, she loved big. And if she loved you, you knew she loved you. You never had to wonder.......

Réalisé par volonté de la Reine Marguerite de Savoie, qui séjournait à Gressoney déjà depuis 1889, hôte de la famille des barons Beck Peccoz, le château s’élève au pied du Col de la Ranzola dans le lieu-dit “Belvedere”, en raison de la superbe vue qui depuis là domine toute la vallée jusqu’au glacier du Lyskamm. La pose de la première pierre de l’édifice eut lieu le 24 août 1899 à la présence du Roi Umbert Ier qui, assassiné à Monza un an plus tard, n’eut pas la possibilité de voir la conclusion des travaux, terminés en 1904. Le manoir accueillit la Reine pendant ses séjours estivaux jusqu’en 1925, un an avant sa mort à Bordighera, le 4 janvier 1926. Après avoir été acheté par l’industriel milanais Moretti en 1936, le château devint propriété de la Région Autonome Vallée d’Aoste en 1981.

Realized by will of Queen Margaret of Savoy, who had been staying in Gressoney since 1889, guest of the family of the barons Beck Peccoz, the castle rises at the foot of the Col de la Ranzola in the place called “Belvedere”, due to of the superb view which from there dominates the whole valley up to the Lyskamm glacier. The laying of the first stone of the building took place on August 24, 1899 in the presence of King Umbert I who, assassinated in Monza a year later, did not have the opportunity to see the conclusion of the work, which was completed in 1904. The mansion hosted the Queen during her summer stays until 1925, a year before her death in Bordighera, on January 4, 1926. After being purchased by the Milanese industrialist Moretti in 1936, the castle became the property of the Autonomous Region Valle d 'Aosta in 1981.

I realize that I've taken a little break from concert photos (which some of you might be happy by) but I'll never get over my love affair with music. That's just the type of human I am. Last night at the Empty Bottle in Chicago, I saw a band named Big Joanie, who are a very politically progressive feminist punk band. More photos and a review here:

Never realized before that this "Chi-ca-go", "Chi-ca-go" is the onomatopoeia for the rallying cry of the California Quails… (Don't ask me to say this prase outloud, I am French after all ) Why not "Sa-cra-men-to" or "Vic-to-ria "… I don’t know. We moved into a more rural part of the Greater Victoria last December and I am so happy to see that we have a healthy population of California Quails around here. We initially had quite a few of them in our previous neighborhood in Saanich (we lioved there for 15 years) , but they all seem to disappear over the years. Apparently, they are heavily predated by the feral cats. The number I see here right now is very encouraging and I hope to be able to photograph them in the Winter, this would be especially nice on one of those rare snowy day. This one was caught on a trail in the woods around Metchosin not around our home. Unfortunately very high ISO.

Without realizing it, the individual composes his/her life according to the laws of beauty even in times of greatest distress.

"People don't realize now is all there ever is; there is no past or future except as memory or anticipation in your mind." - Eckhart Tolle

When I really think about it, I see the truth in this quote. It sounds silly, but the thought started while I remembered my anticipation of these grape hyacinths I planted years ago. Years went by with only foliage popping up...no blooms. Every year I would wait, get super excited...and be super disappointed. This year, I was finally rewarded with some long awaited blooms.

So the question is...and not just about flowers, about anything we experience in life...what's the best part: the anticipation, that's full of hope and fantasies...or the memories that can be looked back on in thought and in pictures? I think it's some combination of both...reminiscing old adventures while anticipating new ones....

Please view large. Have a wonderful Thursday, my friends :-)

Lyrics:

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey

The moment you realize

Those moments just pass you by

Gonna take you to paradise

Move it

Make you prove it, yeah

Breakin' out

Break it down

Feel the chill, feel the chill

Movin' down your spine

When we recall and realize

Make you realize

I've got the power to hypnotize

Make a play, mesmerize

Feel the chills up and down your spine

I'm gonna make you fly

And your eyes playin' tricks on you

And your mind will seek the truth

You know you're gonna make it through

I said, move it

Make you prove it

Shake it out

Shake it down

Feel the chill, feel the chill

Movin' down your spine

When we recall and realize, hey yeah

Gonna make you realize

I got the power to electrify

Make or break or satisfy

And feel a chill up and down your spine

I'm gonna make you fly

Fly, fly

When we recall and realize

Gonna make you realize

I got the power to hypnotize

Make a play, mesmerize

Feel the chills up and down your spine

I'm gonna make you fly

It's the moment you realize that the treasure you held in your hands you couldn't hold on to. In memory of Bart Bader, whom I sorely miss. 💕

"You were the shadow to my light

Did you feel us?

Another star, you fade away

Afraid our aim is out of sight

Wanna see us alight

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Was it all in my fantasy?

Where are you now?

Were you only imaginary?

Where are you now?

Atlantis, under the sea, under the sea

Where are you now? Another dream

The monster's running wild inside of me

I'm faded, I'm faded

So lost, I'm faded, I'm faded

So lost, I'm faded!"

I realized I hadn't posted this cub's photo and I had meant to because I thought he/she has the strangest looking face.

It's one of a set of triplets, the ones that I did the video of them walking practically right up to my cabin door and growling. You remember that, right?

This cub didn't look odd to me then but this picture, I don't know.

Just something about its face looks strange to me.

Turning backwards, it is realized that in this high point of the ruins of the Pilaloma there are other ruins of the two lateral enclosures with their doors facing the Castle. These two enclosures leave a narrow intermediate runner of 0.80m which, coinciding with the longitudinal axis of the entire trapezoid, advances to its major base. Interestingly, the corridor divides into two elongated sections equal to Pilaloma, and goes through the Wanka that marks the multiple tomb. All these elements (geometry, tomb, wanka, corridor, orientation, etc.) have led to interpret the site as a testimony of something more transcendent of the Cañari culture. Indeed, the latest archaeoastronomic studies assert that the corridor and the wanka were associated with the observation of the sun on the summer solstice, on June 21.

i realize that i have not written much here over the past few years. and i am a writer, first and foremost. how odd, to have abandoned the opportunity to paint with words, with sounds and rhythms, offer a complement to the images. so ...

i suppose if you are the kind of person who has a predilection for words, then you will read further. if not, well, there are many images in this stream (including this one, i hope) that speak their own language. :)

i have walked this path, this sentiero. i have walked it, felt the cold autumn air wash over me, the warmth of the sun on my face. i have seen deer bounding across the crests of the hills and pheasants skittering across the surface of the deeply plowed earth, the clay, the crete senesi. i have stood in the midst of this great space, small, very small amidst the waves of autumn blues and greys. i have felt this place, experienced it. and forgotten it. it takes so little time for memories to fade. it takes a conscious effort to preserve them. i work diligently to live in the moment, so diligently at times that i forget. and while the present is the only reality, the past does provide its context, the future does offer some hope, and my memory, though fallible, is not simply a nostalgic salve to ease my aging mind. it's a part of who i am, what i am likely to become.

i have walked this path, seen it anew. and remembered.

Just realized there are sneak peaks on two upxoming figures in there. They will either post later today or tomorrow... hopefully :)

Btw think I'll do a custom comic jay garrick with that helmet instead since the version I did was quite disappointing in the cw show. If anyone wanted to know that xD

A row of buildings in Luebeck, a town in North Germany. I read that these were used for salt storage. I took the buildings (3 or 4 pictures) on a gloomy afternoon 4 years ago and stitched them together. I had in mind to just use the buildings and have the already washed out sky brilliantly white. But I never liked that look and the buildings always seemed askew. One day I realized that it was not about my image, they really were askew. And then I played around with my trusted presets in LR and now I began to like what I saw. I also added texture and fake snow. No white sky now, much better.

Realizing lately I've been ignoring my favorite little winter ducks, the Hooded Mergansers, I went off to the park today to pay my respects. To my disappointment, there was only one male, and I lost him amongst the other sleepers. So, here's a female from a couple of months ago. I thought her coif was perfect, like she'd just come from the coiffeur. Her crayfish appears to be giving its final salute.

Great Blue Heron scored a meal...

....Felt like I was watching an episode on Wild America...wasn't real happy....but it is natureI...by the time I realized what was happing the damage was done...the Garter Snake didn't stand a chance and the Heron got a meal

Thanks for all the visits, comments and/or faves of this image as it is greatly appreciated!! Have a wonderful weekend, stay safe and healthy!!💕😊

I realize that it is probably not a "barn" (probably a tool shed or work area) but I liked the title anyway. I spotted this beautiful autumn scene near Woodstock, Vermont. The light and fall colors were incredible. (Edited in Photoshop and Lightroom)

I realized I don't have any pictures. Of my mandolin here. So here it is, I also have a video playing it. On my stream as well. If you want to hear how it sounds. Or you can follow this link. flickr.com/photos/93918398@N07/49289302987/in/dateposted/

I realize how blessed I am, knowing that my grandchildren enjoy collaborating with their artworks. Good time spent, and hopefully, good memories for them.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

I suppose I don’t realize how often I make comments about cows when I’m in the car with Norm… which makes me wonder what it would be like if I were ever to see a transcript of my own running monologue.

Perish the thought.

We were out near Cambridge and, as I’ve mentioned in the past, Norm is especially good at exploring backroads (and finding his way out of them too). We had passed a few farms and I must have said something about looking for cows and he asked, ‘What is it with you and cows?’ I wasn’t sure how to answer that exactly because, after all, most of the time cows just stand there in the field munching. I expect it’s something about their big faces I like...or maybe it's the influence of those Elsie commercials when I was a kid.

So each time Norm saw cows he’d stop the car and I’d check to make sure the farmer wasn’t around, suspicious that I was from some government agency sneaking about early on a Sunday morning.

As it happened, the only ones suspicious of me were the cows.
