This wiry fence is doing its best to keep people from falling off the cliff overlooking a local waterfall. You can just make out the top of the falls in the background. However, the fence itself is not one I would trust to hold me if I lean on it. It is definitely up to people to respect the boundaries and take caution. We love all the snowshoeing we have been doing this month as we continue to get fresh snowfalls everyday. On this day, the snow was so wet, it was a challenge to keep our gear dry. Happy Fence Friday!

We all do better when we work together. Our differences do matter, but our common humanity matters more,

Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

"A Little Respect" by Erasure

And if I should falter

Would you open your arms out to me?

We can make love, not war

And live at peace with our hearts

I'm so in love with you

I'll be forever blue

What religion or reason

Could drive a man to forsake his lover?

A perfect evening, on the edge of sunset and blue hour.

During daytime, I've noticed this building because of the writing "Chemistry". But honestly, it looked as just another restored storage house near the railway station.

In the evening however, parking the car nearby, I noticed a pink haze somewhere.

On my camera, I still had an ND-filter I use to emphasize the clouds. And there it is: Oh, no, there's no use of Photoshop. Only Lightroom: emphasizing a bit of clarity and texture (no extra saturation).

All of my pictures are made without the use of AI or far-reaching Photoshop manipulations: WISIWYG (What I See Is What You Get) using only Lightroom.

I do enjoy learning new things each day. Especially as I age gracefully, I love the sentiment of respect your elders. Apparently Magnolia flowers are due some reverence as well.

"Magnolia is an ancient genus. Appearing before bees evolved, the flowers are theorized to have evolved to encourage pollination by beetles. To avoid damage from pollinating beetles, the carpels of Magnolia flowers are extremely tough. Fossilized specimens of M. acuminata have been found dating to 20 million years ago, and fossils of plants identifiably belonging to the Magnoliaceae date to 95 million years ago."

The above can be found at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnolia

So this was interesting, when anthony stepped on the capri sun the first time it shot directly all over my camera, we then tried this photo again and got a keeper. I then ran home and cleaned my camera off

First dedicated in 1938 at the British Empire Exhibition of that year. Rededicated December 2008. Peace is "a state of harmony; tranquility, the absence of hostility; justice; goodwill/ respect".. Three dedications are visible on this side dating from 1938: Clan Mackay Society, CPOB Airorie Branch, LRU Paisley Branch, and two, smaller, less legible inscriptions: Kate Beaton, and F.E.N.L AD . Sadly, World War II was already breaking out in Asia and Europe in 1938.

The globe atop the base is covered in letters. At least some spell out words. "Shalom" is pretty easy to see in this photo,

Photographer's opinion: We need a lot more peace in the USA and the world in 2026.

Nota: "Brujo de la escuela de oso, me ha contado una rubia que llevas una vida muy solitaria, te vengo a hacer compañía y cuando quieras, me puedes dar un abrazo". Ese fue el mensaje que Bri le dejó junto a un osito de peluche que le había comprado y dejado a Eldridge en su caseta, sobre las pieles donde descansaba. Y es que resultaba que la maldita empezaba a conocer mejor al cazador de monstruos y parecía disfrutar de su compañía. Regresando del pozo de pelea, y habiendo recibido una buena tunda de un nuevo contrincante llamado "El Bruto", la luchadora acudía a casa del mutado de nuevo caída la noche. La rubia pensaba que estaba haciendo bien en mantener a Yorindel lejos de los problemas en los que se estaba metiendo últimamente con esos bandidos. Además, no quería que fuera seguida hasta la posada y descubrieran donde se alojaba. Ya aseada y cambiada se dirigía hacia la caseta iluminada por una hoguera. Estaba sumamente dolorida y caía sobre la arena de la costa al tropezar. Eldridge se asomaba y no le echaba ninguna mano, quería ver de que pasta estaba hecha Bri y esta al final se internaba en la casa del brujo para sanarse y de paso cenar.

[Basado en RP]

[14:28] Bri se giraba para mirar a Osito y volvía a sonreír encantada de haber acertado con el detalle —¿Nunca te hacen regalos?— preguntaba mientras gruñía por el escozor antes de responder respecto a la pelea que había perdido —Claro que no ha sido en vano, es más estuve durante una semana entera visitando el pozo de incógnito para ver quienes peleaban y cómo se movían, justo antes de lanzarme a pelear con El Cuervo, pero este contrincante lo han sacado nuevo, antes no estaba— aseguraba con convicción antes de verlo incorporarse y sorprenderse cuando le quitaba la gasa y le subía la camiseta—¡Q-qué haces!— se quejaba asustada antes de sentir el escozor en las zonas donde no había llegado por si misma —Ay ay aaaaay— pero ahí la mandaba estarse quieta y comer. La luchadora enmudecía sin poder creer que Eldridge le estuviera echando una mano, aunque era más aterrador pensar que era la primera vez que tenía a un brujo tras ella, subiéndole la camiseta y exponiendo su espalda a su merced. Espadazo de plata y era su fin.—¿Hoy toca liebre?— preguntaba intentando disimular la tensión mientras tomaba el palo con la liebre y daba un fuerte bocado a la carne torrada. En realidad tenía hambre, pero estaba muy tensa y Eldridge podría notarlo en cómo se había quedado ciertamente rígida.

[14:37] Eldridge de Aedirn negaba en relación a la pregunta sobre si le hacían regalos antes de colocarse tras Bri para ayudarla, pasando la gasa con alcohol por las heridas de la espalda. Eldridge retomó la conversación que estaban teniendo – “Bien hecho” – premiaba a la exsoldado por la estrategia de estudiar a sus rivales – “No te quejes tanto, si eres valiente para ponerte en el pozo has de ser valiente para lamerte las heridas” – afirmaba – “Sí, hoy toca liebre. La cacé esta misma tarde” – el mutante pudo notar la rigidez en el cuerpo de la rubia, parecía tensa como una piedra, los músculos en tensión, hombros cargados, parecía estar apretando todos sus músculos – “¿Quieres relajarte?” – después de limpiar bien las heridas colocó poco a poco la camiseta en su posición natural, tapando su espalda y palmeaba con suavidad los hombros de la mujer – “Intenta relajarte, estas más tensa y dura que mi polla cuando estoy cachondo. Solo te he pasado la gasa por la espalda” –.

❖ Canción: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mML2fPec7xU&list=PLd0ilE1moz_...

[14:48] Bri fruncía el ceño cuando el brujo le daba lecciones, claro que sabía cuando retirarse de un combate, bueno no, realmente era demasiado competitiva. Eso era culpa del granjero, su entrenador en el pasado le desafiaba constantemente y de ahí que sacara esa vena competitiva y siempre estuviera un paso por delante —¿C-como quieres que me relaje?— exclamaba con la boca llena de carne antes de suspirar con alivio y destensarse al notar la tela bajar de nuevo, pero de pronto el mutado soltaba todo eso de estar más dura que ¿Su polla estando cachondo? ¿De verdad había escuchado bien? Los alimonados ojos de Bri se abrieron como platos y lo miraron negando —¿Cómo puedes ser tan cerdo?— se quejaba antes de darle con el palo ya sin liebre, sosteniéndola de una pata con la mano.

Oh Yeah... Lightning Storm that evening... It came in late, and I had gear packed and ready in case a storm started to brew. Only a 30% chance but that means its gonna storm in Nebraska.

NWS had just issued a severe thunderstorm warning for Phelps & Kearney Nebraska Counties and it was moving right in my direction. I had time to get into position and wait for the show to begin! I ALWAYS have front row tickets to this type of show!

Canadian Remembrance Day is celebrated yearly on November 11 which is the day World War I ended. It is an opportunity to reflect on those who have served or are serving in the military, especially those who have died in service to their country. There are many uniforms to be seen at Remembrance Day events across the country.

Each of us is in a different world, in our conscious minds, and we have to have respect for each other's world.

This Is a Cemetery That Belongs To A Small Country Church, Back In The Woods ..

My Deceased FiL Is Buried Here, And I Am Sure Today It Is Adorned With Beautiful Flowers ... With Remembering and Paying Due Respect, To Those Who Have Gone On ...

This Photo Does NOT Do It Justice ... For It Was A Fixing to Storm That Day and This Was Just Another Very " Quick Click", However i Did/ Still DO Love The Way The Flag Was A Blowing In The Wind ...

Lest We Never Forget , Those That Have Paved The Way, for Our Freedom Today ,

Also I Pray Too, That " Old Glory" May Forever Wave

Thank You Veterans - Those That Have, and Are Still Serving.... As Well As Some.. That Will Go To the Battlefields Still .

GOD BLESS YOU ALL ... Cindy

A night hike led me to this view of the sandstone formations at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley National Park. In the gulch the eroded ground was very hard as if packed by a steam roller. The mounds of sandstone are off limits to hiking. So with respect to the land, I snapped some panoramas from the gulch. The moon wasn't due out for another 2.5 to 3 hours, and the wind was picking up. It was getting colder and I was getting hungry.

A 5 shot panorama of the foreground with a 12mm ultra wide lens, and 10 shot panorama of the night sky shot at 28mm (DX) lens. The sky was shot at Mojave National Preserve in April 2017. The main foreground was shot in December 2015. Edited in Lightroom, auto stitched in Microsoft ICE, and layered in Corel Paintshop.

On a clear night in Death Valley a lot of stars appear after twilight. Even in Dec when most of the Milky Way is below the horizon, it's sill visible going across the sky.

Here's a link to my Death Valley Video:

Thanks for viewing.

i wonder what is important to me before i leave this world? someone to remember me? someone to honor me? just enjoying the last moments? just got news that my grand mother's situation got worse... i wonder what she wants.

"Perhaps one day man will finally understand his smallness in the face of the wonders of creation, and will find that "sacred" respect for Nature and for Mother Earth ... And looking at a tree will no longer see only a mass of timber, but will feel that inside there's a lot to that living being, but really a lot more ...

What you want, baby, I got it

What's you need? You know I got it

All I'm askin' is for a little respect when you get home

Hey baby, when you get home, mister

I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone

I ain't gonna do you wrong because I don't wanna

All I'm askin' is for a little respect when you get home

Hey baby, when you get home, listen

I'm about to give all of my money

And all I'm askin' in return, honey

You give me my profits when you get there

Yeah baby, when you get home, oh, yeah, ooh

Your kiss is sweeter than honey

Guess what? So is my money

All I need is just a little respect when you get home

Baby, when you get home

The rocks on the beaches of the Northern Finistere (Bretagne, France) as an example of Modernist Photography as created in the beginning of the 20th century.

I really did enjoy shooting tens of pictures during a storm with wind speeds up to 138km/h. Nature at its best.

Respect to Kista, Nerv, Sled and Pun, it was a good day.

The face of a New York City police officer during the Women's March on January 21st, 2017. I call this Respect because of how these men and women in blue treated the marchers with respect and how the marchers, in turn, treated New York City's finest in a similar fashion. There was no show of force with batons waving in the air or any sense of a military-style occupation. The police were there to help route the march and the flow of traffic, as your friends. The march of 400,000 was peaceful in the tradition of those I marched in back in the 60s for civil rights and against the war in Vietnam. The NYPD has a tough job ahead of them with Trump Tower, the new President's home away from DC, being located in the heart of midtown Manhattan. I salute them for their courage and respect.

On the estuary of the Loire (south shore), a traditional fishery.

Sur l'estuaire de la Loire (rive sud), une pêcherie traditionnelle.

Saint-Brevin

France

Les pêcheries sur pilotis sont des esplanades en bois, souvent agrémentées d'une cabane, permettant la pêche au carrelet. Elles sont accessibles par un ponton ou bien par une échelle. Une perche amarrée à un câble soutient deux cerceaux où se fixe le carrelet, filet qui nécessite un treuil pour être relevé. La plupart des pêcheurs appâtent en vers de terre le fond de leurs mailles, lesté par quelques plombs.

En France, les pêcheries appartiennent à des personnes privées ou à des associations, mais occupent le domaine public maritime. À ce titre, elles font l'objet d'une autorisation d'occupation temporaire, précaire et révocable. S'agissant du domaine public naturel, les dispositions législatives en vigueur (article 2124 du Code général de la propriété des personnes publiques) imposent que les activités pratiquées tiennent compte de la vocation des espaces concernés, incluant notamment la pêche maritime, mais excluant l'hébergement (location de nuitées comme chambre d'hôte par exemple). La pêche au carrelet est essentiellement une activité non professionnelle, un loisir qui se pratique au printemps et à l'automne. Les prises (mulets, athérines appelées éperlans, anguilles ou bars) restent dépendantes des secteurs, des saisons, voire des jours.

Souvent équipées de façon rudimentaire, très régulièrement dépourvues d'eau courante et d'électricité, les pêcheries peuvent être louées pour une partie de pêche le temps d'une marée, sans hébergement, sous réserve du respect de prescriptions techniques relatives aux établissements accueillant du public et dans des conditions qui ne soient pas assimilables à une exploitation commerciale.

Le bassin d'Arcachon accueille des cabanes tchanquées, accessibles par bateau ou à marée basse. Plus au nord, les pêcheries occupent l'estuaire de la Gironde et de la Charente, le littoral de la Charente-Maritime, de la Vendée et de la Loire-Atlantique, ainsi que l'estuaire de la Loire. Une quarantaine de pêcheries sont construites le long de la rive sud de cet estuaire, de Saint-Brevin-les-Pins à Corsept. Elles sont accessibles par des passerelles horizontales dont les plus longues font jusqu'à 120 mètres. Essentiellement constituées de perches en bois de châtaignier, les ossatures sont enfoncées dans la vase à plus d'un mètre par endroits. Des ancrages au sol sont nécessaires pour supporter la cabane, souvent constitués de bidons enfoncés dans la vase à marée basse et évidés avant d'être remplis de gravats ou de béton.

Hail Core was on top of me on that first storm to the north of the City... I deiced to bail & go pick up my daughter, as she had called & said I want to go...I scooped her up & proceeded south of the city about 20 miles between Minden & Axtell Nebraska!

The 2nd supcell of the day was coming at us from Dawson County. @ That time that would be direcly to our west northwest. This storm was a fast mover. The first storm of the afternoon was only moving at 14 mph... So we didn't have much time to take snaps.

Though I did take a lot of snaps ...but I made a rookie play & didn't reset this focus from manual. I can be a knucklehead sometimes with I'm in the thick of things....

These were the final images of that afternoon. The ones in focus... We arrived just minutes ahead of its approach. Just in time to get these phenomenal captures right underneath the base of this monster!!!

Ten Minute Exposure

The Low lighthouse at Burnham-on-Sea, another shot from my short break away in January on The Somerset Levels, having been plagued by bad weather on the Levels there was not much chance of getting a decent picture of the local wildlife...So I headed for the Coast, one of my backup plan locations was Burnham-on-Sea and I was rewarded with a rather nice Sunset, albeit amongst a bitterly cold wind down on the beach, a first time visit for me but I would definitely like to go back and recompose! ;)

Aunque mi opinión cuente poco al respecto (me pasa como a usted o a cualquier otro, que no sé nada del secreto cósmico) mi preferida entre las que conozco es la teoría de Arthur Schopenhauer. Si a las filosofías pudiera puntuárselas como a los restaurantes, valorando en lugar de su cocina, bodega, servicio o decoración otro tipo de “prestaciones” –cosmología, antropología, teoría del conocimiento, estética, psicología, elegancia de diseño argumentativo, etcétera-, creo que la expuesta en El mundo como voluntad y representación obtendría en su conjunto cinco estrellas. Tiene una envidiable economía de principios, buenos logros parciales en algunas materias concretas (su teoría de la risa, por ejemplo, o la de la locura), concede importancia a temas esenciales pero descuidados por otros sistemas como la muerte y el sexo, combina con acierto la ausencia de esperanza cósmica y la posibilidad de serenidad personal, incluso desciende a proporcionar algunas indicaciones prácticas de interés para la gestión de la vida cotidiana. Se le pueden disculpar las deficiencias en el terreno político y cierta brumosa mística antivitalista con la que recomienda una forma de santidad que al propio autor por lo visto atraía poco (su mayor empeño personal no era anular su voluntad de vivir sino llegar a cumplir cien años) Objeciones menores si se comparan con las inconsecuencias y quimeras de muchos otros. Desde luego, no parece adecuado hacerle el reproche de ser “pesimista” por pensar que éste es el peor de los mundos posibles (la mayoría de los pesimistas que conozco se caracterizan habitualmente por estar convencidos de que toda situación, por mala que sea, es susceptible de empeorar): el auténtico y descorazonador pesimismo es el de Leibniz, que se atrevió a sostener que éste es el mejor de los mundos posibles, lo que ya ni siquiera nos deja imaginar escapatoria alguna...
