I didn't realize until I uploaded that there is a slight tripple reflection of the moorhen in this shot. Well, I can see it even if no-one else can:)
Enjoy a lovely weekend everyone!
For me, presentation is part of the work, a way to voice the maker’s thoughts of his subject. I don’t think it can add appeal... perhaps more like clarity. I have begun to set some of my photographs before the public in small galleries these days and I find that imagining how something you have worked on looks to others’ eyes is as difficult as knowing what we look like if we are not looking at ourselves.
As the air thickens with smoke and we all sit and wonder what is next... we realize we just need to breathe....
please note I may not be able to post for a bit due to fires in our area but I will be back ♥☺

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.

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:

"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 :-)
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a yellow day at Color my World Daily and i just realized that I never saw an egg and a lemon kissing… Can an egg fall in love with a lemon ? Or does it only happen with Avocados ? They say love is blind so who knows ? Maybe there is an egg living with his lemon lover…
Another day, another video meeting !! See you later my friends !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!
I realize this is something that most people wouldn't give a second glance to. My husband had been soldering and left his soldering clips and iron out near a window, and I just knew that I had to photograph them. I tried using four different lenses, and of course, I liked the image taken with my Pentacon the best :)
Happy Monday!
I realize this won't be to everyone's taste, and it was different for me as well. But I had to take it. I probably have to describe what this is, as I wouldn't even know if I hadn't taken it :)
I was walking on the outer walkway of the second floor of a building with the sun shining in from the left. There was a wooden railing to the left and the building was to the right, with windows from floor to ceiling. As I only had my Pentacon AV lens with me, and it has a fixed aperture of f2.8, I could either focus on the foreground or the background, and I tried both, but choose the foreground focus, leaving the entire rest of the image in bokeh. So what you see is the railing, the shadows from it, and the reflections duplicated in the windows at the right, with the window frames in the centre, but not entirely symmetrical. Hope that makes sense!
I didn't realize how much I've missed using the Genus Baby Face Head. This skin by Not Found was one of my favorites. Just trying to motivate myself to do better. Hope you like it.

Many don’t realize that two thirds of Oregon is considered high desert, and that something like the Alvord Desert exists in our gorgeous state. One of the great things about Oregon is how diverse the geology and landscape is, and that you can visit the coast one day, and be in the Alvord Desert camping on the playa and staring up at the milky way the next. (from That Oregon Life)
The Alvord Desert is one of the largest playas in Oregon at six miles wide and eleven miles long. This remote playa sits at approximately 4,000 feet in elevation and is the perfect place to camp and enjoy nature.
I was told by another camper, that this crystalline substance on the lake is an alkaline salt deposit. What ever it is, it is crunchy and has a bit of sparkle when the sun catches it right.
This was taken very early in the morning. It was still quite cold but since you can drive out on the playa I kept jumping back in my car to get warm.

I just realized how long I haven't been to my beloved Elbe Sandstone Mountains. It's been a shocking 8 months now. I can not believe it.
Even though I've been to some beautiful places in the meantime, I really regret that I just didn't have the time.
To account for this and to remind myself that I would like to spend a day here again as soon as possible, I pull a previously unpublished photo from my archive.
The memory of that magnificent sunrise on mt. Lilienstein eases my pain somewhat and I hope the sight of the soft clouds floating over the forests and fields, bathed in an orange-pink light by the rising sun, brings you some joy.
Gerade ist mir bewusst geworden, wie lange ich nun schon nicht mehr in meinem geliebten Elbsandsteingebirge unterwegs war. Das ist jetzt schon schockierende 8 Monate her. Ich fasse es nicht.
Auch wenn ich in der Zwischenzeit an einigen wunderschönen Orten war bedaure ich es doch sehr, dass mir hierzu die Zeit einfach gefehlt hat.
Um dem Rechnung zu tragen und um mich daran zu erinnern, dass ich sobald wie möglich wieder einen Tag hier verbringen möchte, hole ich ein bisher unveröffentlichtes Foto aus meinem Archiv.
Die Erinnerung an diesen grandiosen Sonnenaufgang auf dem Lilienstein lindert meinen Schmerz etwas und ich hoffe, der Anblick von den weichen Wolken, die über den Wäldern und Feldern schweben, von der aufgehenden Sonne in ein orange rosa Licht getaucht,bereitet Euch etwas Freude.

I'm realizing day by day that many of my ideas , framing and subjects are shamelessly copied on Flickr , what really makes me angry is not the copying, but the fact that my ideas receive more faves on other people's photostreams !

Moment at San Monique:
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.

"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 just realized the other day that I have taken quite a few photos of Father John Misty or Joshua Michael Tillman over the years but never posted any of them, which is just a thing that happens when you photograph several bands every day of a festival and have thousands of photos to go through after you haven't slept three nights straight. Anyway, Father John Misty puts on a good show and you can listen here:

In Minnesota we are all very used to winter, and we all have that moment when we realize it is finally here and here to stay. Not many days after I took this photo, the North Shore received another 20" of fresh snow. It truly is a winter wonderland up there right now! Sometimes it feels like time just keeps flying by, we are near the end of another year and another year closer to the end. Sometimes when the seasons change it can feel easy to get lost in time or even lost in life. What is the meaning? What is the purpose? Another year is ending only to be replaced by another one coming. If we chose to look at life like this it can feel so shallow. We were made for more than to watch the sun rise and set day after day and with the years pass by. There is more to life than this. We are created for something more. We are called for something so much greater!
Happy Earth Day!

I remember the first one well in 1970, my senior year. They let us out of school that afternoon and we picked up litter around town. Then we had a celebration for old Gaia. Great fun.
Earth Day is a day that is intended to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment. Earth Day was founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in first held on April 22, 1970. While this first Earth Day was focused on the United States, an organization launched by Denis Hayes, who was the original national coordinator in 1970, took it international in 1990 and organized events in 141 nations. Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 175 countries every year.
I admire, support and greatly appreciate the portions of our precious planet that we have protected for future generations to enjoy, like this view of Mt. Rainier capturing the first light on another glorious day.
Thanks for the taking a look, and protecting and celebrating our home.
Looking at this picture, I realize I was actually expressing the extreme darkness I have been feeling. Art is such an amazing way to express yourself or release whatever bad energy you're feeling. This pose from Space Cadet called, "2021" was the perfect fit.
The perfect song for my mood.
We know rainbows for their renowned beauty and for the fact that they form when the sun hits water particles in the sky at 22 degrees usually in mid morning or late afternoon. But, there is a whole lot more to a rainbow than what many may know. It is a symbol to remind the world that God would never flood the whole earth ever again. We know the science behind a rainbow and many other natural wonders that leave us breathless. What we don't realize is that creation responds to its Creator. Rainbows form across the sky as a reminder and a promise. Winds come to a calm by a word from the mouth of Jesus. The whole Earth and everything it contains was formed by a word spoken from its Creator, the LORD of all of heaven and earth. What is so special to me about rainbows is that they truly have symbolized promises made to us and answered prayers from God. I asked for a rainbow on my engagement day and there was a rainbow, I asked for a rainbow over a lake on the day of our wedding shower and there was a rainbow over a lake on our wedding shower as a promised reminder of the covenant to come.

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
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)
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.

"La Palla di Pomodoro" reworked- monochrome is the bronze cast made in 1998 by sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro on a polyester model arrived in Pesaro in 1971 but realized in 1967 for the Expo ' Montreal. The original work is today in Rome in front of the main entrance of the Foreign Ministry, the Foreign Affairs Ministry.

Dear friends, this 2019 was really a year of many changes for me.
One occurred at the beginning of the year and the other now, in September, which I consider for a long time the real beginning of the year. I will have less time here to visit your galleries and probably also to post mine, as the processing takes a long time.
I am sure that I will resume a certain rhythm here too, as soon as I will be adapted to the new rhythms.
Winter is very long and I will certainly not leave my passion to play with images so easily.
Please excuse me for being less timely in responding to comments and groups.
Thank you for your support, dear friends

Sorry about the lower right corner. I realized about the unfinished corner after I posted it, otherwise I would have fixed it. I didn't want to remove the picture and repost it :P
I was on the wrong path and without realizing it I lost everything that really means something to me. Since then I have been living in the dark and waiting for you to come to pick me up .. On your hand that you give me with forgiveness so that we can start over. Maybe that will never happen, but hope remains. Until then, I'll just stay in my dark world.
When its cold and dark we need warm clothes. Here you can see the Nero N7 Hoodie Vigilante.

Firstly I hate that ship on the left when taking this picture. So after taking it, I moved to another spot and got a clear view of the building. After transferring the pictures to my laptop, I realize the one without ship was kind of boring. So I choose this instead ^_^
Picture was taken during sunset and I add magenta tone in processing.
Guys I have to own up and come clean so to speak when we were up at Aberfeldy for Autumn shots as we were driving back, I noticed must have been 20 Roe Deer so stopped on this slip road I only had my 20mm with me so wasn't able to get a decent shot but realized this must be farmed deer as there was a high fence on leaving and still looking to my left saw red deer as well so decided to pop back up but the roe deer weren't there some work was getting done drove up the slip road and saw the red deer quickly got out went to side of fence grabbed a few shots was there about 2 mins they moved away on seeing me but then stopped and just looked obviously used to people there was a huge type of warehouse with lots of steam coming from it so just left quickly but might pop back if we get snow it was a opportunity to good to miss.

Many thanks for stopping by always appreciated.
if they're the right one, you won't have to tell them not to cheat, to unfollow their exes, or to respect you when you're not around. you won't have to teach them how to treat you at all.
While driving along the Kings Canyon we realized it was only a couple hours to sunset. Importantly we had not decided any place where we wanted to get the sunset. For a change it was drizzling all afternoon and I was thinking of getting some nice post-rain clouds for the sunset. We finally decided to drive back to Sequoia and get the sunset at the Moro Rock. It was about an hour away from the Kings Canyon National Park.
As we arrived at the spot after climbing like 500 stairs, we were greeted with this awesome view. This is the west side where all the magic was happening.
The stairs go right to the top, an exasperating climb but completely worth the effort. At times a bit unsafe as the railings are absent, but no biggy! Excellent place to watch stars if you stay late on the top. This was taken from about half climb where there is a small balcony put out to watch the wavy valley.
The windy roads down the valley looked tempting. I instantly wanted to get the light trails of the cars driving back from the NP. I stayed up late and tried many exposures before I was sure about the settings. About 20min after the sunset I started to see the trials in 3-4min exposures but still the top of the photograph was too exposed. Had to wait a bit more for the light on the top to get less intense. The worry was the valley can get too dark! This was my third and final shot with a 6min exposure after the sun was completely down. Eventually, I realized its only a 15min window when the light is right to expose the shot right and get the trails distinct enough to stand out of the scene. The lights in the back is Visalia and Tulare.
Will post a few more shots from a day before.

Please don't post any graphics or awards. I just want to know what you think and highly appreciate any inputs to improve my photographs. Thank you for your favorites and comments!
This photo was taken at North Point State Park. I composed this shot when the bird was facing left and took more than 30 shots. I realized the bird was missing its left eye after taking the photos. Fortunately it looked to the right for a few shots and I was able to crop it to look decent.
This cabbage head was small to begin with. After removing the outer leaves to make stuffed cabbage, the hard core was also removed. Now it is ready to fine-slice for coleslaw. It’s a small amount of coleslaw.
At that point I realized it had a heart shape😍 So I cropped the photo a bit to fit within the Macro Mondays guidelines.
Unnoticed
transparent in the hustle ....
a rush though,
a rare glimpse
of energy
so that, when fully realized
we wonder with mouths and hearts open.
A prayer to all sentient beings
to the realization of their enlightenment.
For their liberation from lower rebirth in the realms of Saṃsāra.
To their ultimate attainment and ascension to the blissful state of Nirvāṇa.
By the gracious and merciful blessings of the holy one, and of all enlightened beings.
