This is the story of Twilight the Bearer of The Last Lantern.
Born in a world swallowed by darkness, the young boy scrabbled and scratched around in an abandoned house searching for magical books called "match-books" for his "match-day". The day of his birth when a match is lit in the darkness for a brief moment to see the world and the passage of time. But on this day, young Twilight found something else... He found a magical lantern... He had found hope.
Now he must journey to the last city with only the Lantern of Hope to light his way, staying the ever-encroaching darkness at bay.
I took this picture and was immediately inspired to write a story of this character and his journey. It's proving to be more challenging than I originally imagined. A world swallowed by darkness and boy born not blind, but within a world without sight. The journey of this tale will be long and filled with fear of the unknown.
Hopefully one day I'll complete this story and this shall be its book cover.
Close up of a Fig Beetle (aka Green Fruit Beetle/Green June Beetle/etc.), Cotinis mutabilis. These beautiful, harmless beetles are flying around now here in southern California. They have a tendency to clonk into obstacles when flying - even easily-avoidable ones like houses - so it's good they're well-armored. Up close like this you can see all the scrapes and scratches from its various mid-air collisions.
This is an ancient recipe in an old Canadian Cookbook. My tried and true recipe for scones. And, I like to blob them onto the baking pan instead of forming or cutting them out..... I love a rustic looking scone.
Back in the day, it was just a recipe called Sweet Tea Biscuits (basic recipe). Under the main recipe... there were some variations. The first one was Currant Scones. So, as much as I've read about scones vs biscuits.... the only difference in these was .... the currants or raisins. I guess they didn't differentiate.
I added some lemon juice to the milk .... and, 1/2 tsp. Maple Flavouring and also some real Maple Syrup as well ...and then...when they came out of the oven...drizzled more Maple Syrup on them while they were hot.
These particular scones got slightly more brown than I like .... because I was doing the usual... 4 things at the same time.
"Somebody" said they were the best ever. ... and, that I should over brown them regularly.... hmppff .....
USA ... ... Arizona. Grand Canyon. Hopi Point ... ... and very hot! I think there will be at least 35 ° C.
A crowd of tourists scattered on the trails is taking photos in rocks, plants and everything that moves.
A myriad of almond eyes with their preposterous tools impress frames with friends, relatives,
unleashing smiles to 32 teeth and scarves fluttering in the light breeze ...
Horizon, dark clouds seem to portend a storm, something quite common though not frequently.
The waters of the Colorado in the valley flow lazy, indifferent, as if waiting ...
Now the clouds seem to have started running, perhaps in memory of Appaloosa, which in times of Pinto
far they have galloped on these wild territories.
The first drops of rain begin to fall and people run for cover in their multicolored tins
for fear of wetting their precious smartphone!
I try and find shelter in a rock and the safety net that marks the paths.
The rain falls abundant. water blades hit the river without scratching it, flashes of bright light illuminate
its surface, the dust rises like a veil to hide the rocks made even redder by the rain.
Seedlings, until a moment before, seemed on the verge of dying, flourished again as if by magic.
It presents an incredible landscape and magnificent!
Snap, snap, snap ...
Each image that is revealed on the sensor is completely different
from the previous one, the Grand Canyon
It turns under my eyes.
Then, with the speed with which they arrived, the clouds go away and, as
swarms of bees, the tourists come back, arms
forward, ready to take new pictures, unaware that he had lost the magic moment to turn into
an unforgettable memory the usual postcards ...

Scratching Post - Young Bobcat entering her prime marks her territory. I have been having a slow time with photography lately so I actually was not planning on going out this evening.
However, I made a last minute trip out to try to see if any Bobcats would show after the rain. Boy did that decision pay off - within 30 seconds I spotted a Bobcat within the brush.
After I identified that it was the individual Bobcat that is most comfortable with me, I quietly walked around and sat about 30 feet from her for 30 minutes. This is a strategy I use with this species - finding a distanced place where they have clear line of sight to me and just sitting and acting normal. After the 30 minute period she got up and actually stalked towards me within 15 feet, and started marking her territory and scratching. I did not realize how large this particular individual had gotten and it was pretty awe-inspiring to watch her reach up and scratch the trees.
Scratching is not a behavior I have photographed well with Bobcats so this was truly a treat. I had to switch to vertical orientation, adjust my exposure compensation and zoom out to 300mm all in one motion to capture this image and I am very glad I didn't fumble anything. After this, she headed on for her hunt. Definitely grateful for this experience - was truly my #1 wildlife experience of 2022 without a doubt.

You can probably understand why Sanparks build these signs as robustly as they do when you notice what they get used for.

|| first pose I made from scratch in Black Dragon, what better birthday present could I give myself?
Okay, I really didn't believe it when the moose told me he could put his back hoof over his head. So I bet him $50 he couldn't, needless to say, the moose walked away a bit richer than when he arrived.
Actually, this young fella was browsing in our yard and he had an itch. It amazed the photographer the agility and flexibility he had.Guessing that this bull was three or four years old, his paddles are being formed and will continue to grow until mid to late August.
We featured Ziggy (the cat inside the cage) on our Facebook page today and I included this picture of Alexander Hamilton in the comments. My mom suggested I might share this photo other places e.g. Flickr.
I didn't mention this in Ziggy's write-up but he is a bit of a beast when he comes to board. He weighs about 18 pounds and has urinary issues and so we keep him in this large cage when he stays with us. He's on three medications that he gets twice a day and it takes three technicians to medicate him. He lunges, hisses and growls and tries to scratch and bite us. But for some reason, he and Alexander Hamilton have become buddies. At one point, I left Ziggy's cage door open so he could get out and walk around and stretch his legs and he and Alexander Hamilton went nose to nose and then both just plopped down on the ground about a foot apart and slow blinked at each other.
Anway, no need to comment - I just thought you might get a kick out of Alexander Hamilton hanging out with Ziggy.
This image is straight out of the camera: no tweaking, no color processing, no cropping, no nothing.
