This was my first nature photo shoot years ago, later during that day I realized that I wasn`t lonely:)) 🙌😭😀😀!!!..
Thank you for your visit
Have a pleasant weekend
My neighbor, without realizing, has the most wonderful array of flowers that attract butterflies. exico, Central America, West Indies, and parts of South America). Today this lovely Gulf Fritillary was feasting there. The underside of the wings are brownish/orange with elongated silvery white spots. Adults are migrating southward to frost-free portions of their range (Southern U.S. south through MI’ll post a pic of the upper wings later.
Introduced from Eurasia this a bird of the high plains of western North America, I didn't know what it was when it showed up in my yard six years ago. Read about a few reports of these birds around the province when I realized what it was, speculation was they may have been raised from eggs as game birds and escaped. It's the national bird of both Pakistan and Iraq.
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

Yesterday I realized how much I am missing my sidekick, who is off on a long family vacation... I was going through The Liaison Collaborative and found this super cute SeeSaw and had an image in mind.... after realizing I had.......

This is a very different matter from the mild geometry of brick and shadow or the interminable search for "texture." In his best photographs, landscape and season, earth and light, are revealed in a grand mutuality - a moment so precisely visualized in tone and composition as to be mathematical, and yet so revelatory of earthly beauty as to be something else entirely :-)

Open your eyes and see the beauty
That you had not yet seen:
Dew on the grass, yellow butterflies,
Different shades of green,
Mist rising from the earth
Almost like a dream,
Busy bees check on blooms,
Working as team.
Petals on the tiny flowers
Seem more delicate.
And the breezes rise and fall,
Telling the day’s fate.
The wind is whispering.
As you whirl to nature’s song,
You start to feel so free,
You forget all but the sound
Of the wind and trees.
When you’re dizzy and
Breathless with relief,
Have a seat in a field.
Forget any grief.
You will find more peace in life
And maybe contentment
When you realize your drama is
Not quite so important.
A day with the wind is a day with life.
It sends you peace and warnings.
Listen to the wind, my friend;
You’ll never find it boring.
When life just bogs you down
And trouble’s at no end,
There Is a way to peace again:
Just listen to the wind. ~♥~
Looking back of the year, I realized that I was very inactive in Flickr in 2019. Greatly thanks to Flickr friends who still come to visit my Photostream, giving me favorites and comments. In the last day of this year I decided to post my 3rd picture for 2019 as a closing. Wish you all a happy New Year 2020!!

Whether you’ve realized it or not, if you’ve been to Paris you’ve probably seen the tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte, at least from a distance. Napoleon is buried inside the Dôme Des Invalides at Les Invalides (officially the Hôtel National des Invalides). The bright, gold dome of the chapel reaches high into the sky and stands out on the Paris landscape like a glittering beacon. 248
"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 :-)
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 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.

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.
..... didn´t realized I was the dinner, though !!
It´s no shortcut to church, but I guess that is my destination anyway.... eventually.

"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!"

After a long walk, from Sapa (North Vietnam) to a small village where I spent the night (I do not remember the name), the next morning I took pictures of the surroundings when on my right, I noticed a child looking at me. I was something new to him.

Après une longue marche, de Sapa (Vietnam nord) jusqu’à un petit village ou j'ai passé la nuit (je ne me rappel plus du nom), le lendemain matin je prenais des photos des environs quand sur ma droite, j'ai remarqué un enfant qui me regardait. J’étais quelque chose de nouveau pour lui.

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!

I realize most of you will think I am nuts for going back to this same UFO landing pad (trust me, me too!). When I saw the area was flooded, I had to go out for a look.
On this day, Salt Lake City set a new daily precipitation record with 0.8 inches (2.032 cm)of rain. Remember, most of Utah is a desert, so this amount of rain in one day was significant.
This area of salt is very flat, and the water was paper-thin but just enough for reflections. You can also see where the aliens collected the rocks and moved them into position to mark a safe landing for their spaceship.
Also, note the shades of green - this is seasonal. Most of the year, its yellow. So the green is another bonus.
The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the shot.

No more plans to shoot here unless a Christmas tree magically appears!
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 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.

When I realized that the sunrise was going to be better than I had excpected, I had to run to get to a better vantage point. Yesterday's and today's images were the result of my running. It was fun!
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 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.

Tiny little one. I hadn't realized it had begun to rain. So much fun!
And I believe this is the female House Finch (Haemorhous mexicanus). I desaturated the vivid green background, but that turned out to be yellow hues. The bird has shades and streaks of brown.
Thanks for looking. If you borrow this, please link back to this page ;)
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!
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.
Realized the other shot had been posted before....sorry.
This was last winter but we have had a couple of days here and there with some snow that stayed.
This is not an explored image but I have been very lucky as of late to have my images go to Explore. Some were good shots and some meh.... Seems to be every couple of weeks. Still lucky at any rate.
Happy Fence Friday
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.
