Today seems to be a bird theme day for me. All of the photos were taken of birds hanging out near a body of water.
The eagle was perched in a tree that overlooks Lake Michigan. If it feels a bit peckish a wide variety of natural foods awaits in the water and along the shore.The photo was taken this Wednesday morning.
IL MAESTRO GIUSTO
C'era una volta un cane
che non sapeva abbaiare.
andò da un lupo a farselo spiegare,
ma il lupo gli rispose
con un tale ululato
che lo fece scappare spaventato.
Andò da un gatto, andò da un cavallo,
e - mi vergogno a dirlo -
perfino da un pappagallo.
Imparò dalle rane a gracidare,
dal bove a muggire,
dall'asino a ragliare,
dal topo a squittire,
dalla pecora a fare « bè bè »,
dalle galline a fare coccodè.
Imparò tante cose,
però non era affatto soddisfatto
e sempre si domandava
(magari con un « qua qua »...):
- Che cos'è che non va?
Qualcuno gli risponda, se lo sa.
Forse era matto?
O forse non sapeva
scegliere il maestro adatto?
(Gianni Rodari)
NOI IL MAESTRO GIUSTO LO ABBIAMO AVUTO...
DI FOTO; MA ANCHE DI VITA....
grazie GIGI...
As we move away from those summer days in Australia, we're still experiencing a lovely Indian Summer in Melbourne with very warm Autumn days.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

“He who would pass his declining years with honor and comfort, should, when young, consider that he may one day become old, and remember when he is old, that he has once been young.”

I thought this blend of 2 images would make a good upload for Remembrance Sunday and the 100th Anniversary of Armistice Day. The base image is my shot of the Bury Hill Poppy Field at dawn taken on 13th June. Layered on this is an image taken at Arundel Cathedral in August. This was part of “There but not there” a nationwide event lasting to today in commemoration of the end of the 1st World War. The usual figures are of a 6ft tall transparent silhouette outlined in black which stand with their head bowed, rifle in hand, and with a poppy on the chest. Another version is of a seated silhouette with no outline.
The images were blended with a mix of layer opacity and a layer mask using a brush at differing opacity

"Life changes as we're having dinner."
It's an expression I've heard over the years
and eventually understood it by experiencing it.
It's shocking the first time it happens. We somehow adjust.
And then, again, our lives change. We adjust over and over.
And now we have a pandemic, Covid-19, and this, too, shall pass. And we will hopefully return to what will be our new normal . Maybe we'll be a bit softer, not so angry,
not so opinionated in our political beliefs,
not so hateful with our words.
Maybe, just maybe, we won't take our everyday comforts for granted.
Hopefully we'll come to see a dawning of a new world,
one where harmony and good will towards those who hold different beliefs will reign...
and let it begin with me.
Hallelujah!

A memorable photo session with my buddy and excellent photographer Nolan Nitschke. I don't remember ever laughing so much during a photo session. So much fun taking in this beautiful late light scene and laughing our asses off. I look forward to many more of these kinda sessions with Nolan.
If you are in the Mammoth Lakes area make sure to stop in his The Sierra Light Gallery - Photography by Nolan Nitschke. Flat out awesome work!
Ragusa, Sicily.
An beautiful sleepy town steeped in history. Although it was a rainy day, it did not spoil its charm.
A mix of some beautiful, colourful Begonia blossoms to uplift your day. Happy new week my friends =)

This tree trunk will eventually disintegrate, dissolve, and disappear - and will be recycled if you wish. A hundred years from now, there will probably be nobody to remember this tree. It will be as if it had never been here. As if. Because it was here. It once stood here for decades and left its imprint in the structure of life, even in the material and physical strata of the planet. As such, this tree has indeed impacted on the structure of the cosmos and changed it. Because it once was here, plenty of tiny changes have occurred around it. Irreversibly so. Remember.
I was everything you wanted to be;
but wasn't
I was your hope.
Your destiny
But it was all wrong
That wasn't meant for you
it was meant for me
How do you feel?
Being second place?
You'll never be anything like me.
Mainly?
because I have it all;
and you clearly, dont.
In Burlington long ago
And later again in Ashtabula
I said to myself:
I wonder how far Ophelia went with Hamlet. 30
What else was there Shakespeare never told?
There must have been something.
If I go bugs I want to do it like Ophelia.
There was class to the way she went out of her head.
-- Carl Sandburg. Potato Blossom Songs and Jigs. Cornhuskers. 1918.
If I remember correctly, this train stood on the outside platform of the station with the loco in shadow, so we wandered up the side of the track, fortunately without being challenged.
Again a guess, but this may well be D601, Erfurt - Chemnitz, with a lovely rake of DR express coaches.
Remember Pep rescued me from outside back in June? I'm doing very well in my new home. No one ever came to claim me so my new mommy said I could stay. She changed my name from Samson to Benson. Says I look more like a Benson "Ben". I like to look out the window at Pep and mommy to make sure they come back inside the house. Click on the link below to jog your memory ;-)

Take a moment!
Pause and remember that we are free to go about our business in a somewhat peaceful and civilized way!! There are those around the world that put their lives on the line each and every minute of the day in an effort to contain the criminal element that would prey on an innocent individual! Every time an attack occurrs that attack is leveled at your freedom by those who would subjugate others only to extend their corruption and power and force their will upon them!! It's a difficult world we live in and becoming more challenging! Pray for a return to sanity and common sense and ethical values!!
REMEMBER
Pray for those who have been slain senselessly and pray for their families...those who have lost their loved ones so that we can be free to enjoy life peacefully! Remember that they are people like you and me...people who live next door...sons...fathers...mothers...brothers... and enjoyed life every bit as much as you and I do!!

Bye baby, see you around
Didn't I tell you I wouldn't hold you down
Take good care of yourself, y'hear
Don't let me hear about you shedding a tear
You're gonna make it
You're gonna take it
Remember me as a sunny day
That you once had, along the way
Didn't I inspire you a little higher
Remember me as a funny clown
That made you laugh when you were down
Didn't I boy, didn't I boy
Remember me as a big balloon
At a carnival that ended too soon
Remember me as a breath of spring
Remember me as a good thing
