Just having lunch at Samphire Restaurant in Falmouth, Cornwall. My coke and ice arrived and I lost my self control!!! Olloclip @ 21 x magnification add on lens on the iPhone, quick stir in Snapseed on iPhone. The glass was also covered in condensation which may well of helped with the blurriness in places........

Black Scoters are usually seen in flocks, migrating in long lines or resting on the water. They dive for prey, mostly shellfish, in shallow water. Males begin courtship soon after settling into wintering areas. Their wings make whistling sounds and males frequent give whistled calls, which can be useful in locating these ducks.

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing, This lack of self control I fear is never ending, Controlling, I can't seem, To find myself again, My walls are closing in, I've felt this way before
So insecure!!
Crawling in my skin, These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall, Confusing what is real!! ♥

From a distance Green Herons look all dark. In better light they are deep green on the back with a rich chestnut breast and neck. The wings are dark gray. Juveniles are browner, with pale streaking on the neck and spots on the wings.

I lit a match in Vienna tonight
It caused a fire in New York
Where is my self-control?
You gotta learn to be thankful
For the things we have
Now bathe my idle soul in
Desire
Taken by force
Twist of fate
Well, what weighs more
Down on your plate
A ton of love?
A ton of hate?
We're waiting for
A chance of, chance of, chance of
Desire
I don't trust the government
I don't trust myself
What is a boy gonna do?

After two years, we finally got some snow, and along with the snow some Horned Larks. Neither stayed long, but I was able to get some pleasing shots.
Horned Larks are social birds, sometimes found in huge flocks outside the breeding season. They creep along bare ground searching for small seeds and insects. They often mix with other open-country species in winter flocks, including longspurs and Snow Buntings.

Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just human
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Why am I so emotional?
No, it's not a good look, gain some self-control
And deep down I know this never works
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me

... whether or not there is a chance that a substantial part of my inner life is dominated by 'blockheadedness'. I am using my cameras for a closer kind of self-interrogation and the result is that, wait for it, there is indeed a good chance that "blockheadedness" is present. Not only present, but that it is part of the border police roaming the boundaries of my identity and, if unchecked, telling me what to do. OK, who is doing the checking?
Whoever walks in integrity walks securely,
but he who makes his ways crooked swill be found out.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Pr 10:9.
The dangers of drinking alone - no mates to take you home.
Excessive drinking can often results in a lack of self-control, leading to regrettable behaviours that undermine personal dignity.
The negative consequences of alcohol-related loss of dignity extend beyond the immediate moment, as such behaviour can damage relationships, reputations, and future opportunities.
This issue requires a comprehensive approach, including education, support services, and promoting responsible drinking habits amongst the young.

Rencontre avec un animal exceptionnel. Photo #1
Ce cerf de 18 cors irrégulier, est le plus bel animal que j’aie jamais rencontré en plus de 20 saisons d’observations. Toutes les photos présentées ont été réalisées en milieu ouvert, exaltant sa beauté sauvage. Sa ramure impressionnante dégage une puissance, une taille, une harmonie, lui conférant une majesté exceptionnelle.
Les photos obtenues sont le résultat de beaucoup de patience, d'une analyse précise des habitudes de l’animal et de la configuration de la place de brame, de la discrétion et du positionnement des affûts le plus judicieusement possible en fonction des conditions climatiques, de l’heure d’observation, de maîtrise de soi (lorsque l’animal sort du bois et se positionne à une vingtaine de mètres, il faut garder son sang-froid ce qui n’est pas si simple).
Il ne s’est montré qu’à la nuit tombante et à la pointe du jour, rendant encore plus difficile la quête d’images. Mes plus chaleureux remerciements à Vincent, mon ami photographe animalier, avec qui j’ai partagé cette expérience inoubliable.
Nous espérons pouvoir la revivre l’année prochaine s’il arrive à déjouer les intentions mortifères de quelques chasseurs. 🙏
Encounter with an exceptional animal. Photo #1
This 18-point irregular red stag, is the most beautiful animal I have ever encountered in more than 20 seasons of observations. All the photos presented were taken in an open environment, exalting its wild beauty. Its impressive antlers exude power, size and harmony, giving him exceptional majesty.
The photos obtained are the result of a lot of patience, a precise analysis of the animal's habits and roaring place configuration, discretion and positioning of the blinds as judiciously as possible depending on the climatic conditions, the time of observation, and self-control (when the animal comes out of the woods and positions itself about twenty meters away, you have to keep your cool, which is not so simple).
He only showed up at nightfall and at daybreak, making the search for images even more difficult. My warmer thanks to Vincent, my wildlife photographer friend, with whom I shared this unforgettable experience.
We hope to be able to relive it next year if he manages to thwart the hunters' deadly intentions. 🙏

Fortune is unreliable. A man may rest in her arms, but only a fool would place his trust in her. Although she is inconsistent, greedy men chase after her. She is a mistress, unfaithful from the beginning. If a man truly possessed Fortune, he could never lose her. Many seek Fortune, but in death, she will desert them. Her beauty is deceptive, her allure is sweet, yet she is bound to no one. She has made no vows to anyone. Men lust after her, though she never truly satisfies. What she gives is never enough to satisfy. Man, in his void, longs for more.
If Fortune is fleeting, then she is a warning of what is to come. Wisdom, on the other hand, calculates the outcome of matters. In spite of this, many have divorced wisdom. They have been seduced by Fortune. Yet Fortune, in her very essence, cannot bring true happiness. She will desert her lovers in the end. Those who become infatuated with her will suffer from the blindness of ignorance. If Fortune pursues those who are greedy, then is she really worth pursuing? Is she really trust worthy? Does Fortune turn bad men into good men? What constitutes a good man? If a man has broken one of God’s laws, is he a good man? Those who seek fame are really seeking a kind of immortality. They want to leave a legacy, they want to be remembered. Many who seek Fortune also pursue fame and popularity. Many become shallow and conceited, forsaking virtue and a good conscience. Fame cannot lengthen a man’s life.
Fortune, on the other hand, has two sides: Good Fortune and Bad Fortune. Good Fortune can be good, if a man is not deceived by her. Good Fortune can be good, if a man does not trust her. Bad Fortune can give a man an opportunity to reflect, to learn, and to grow. Bad Fortune reveals that she is untrustworthy and unreliable. Good Fortune, by contrast, brings pleasure; thus, she hides the fact that she is untrustworthy and unreliable. Good Fortune enslaves the minds of those who enjoy her. Bad Fortune reveals that happiness is fragile. She reveals that life is frail. Adversity can make a man wiser. Adversity can cause a man to mature. Bad Fortune gives a sober picture of reality. A fool will learn little from adversity. He will continue down the path of folly. Good Fortune frequently lures men away from the good path. Bad Fortune can humble a man, causing him to turn back to the straight and narrow. Bad Fortune reveals a man’s true friends, while Good Fortune brings many impostors. When Good Fortune leaves a man, she takes what belongs to her. When Good Fortune leaves a man, she brings her friends with her. Yet Bad Fortune leaves a man’s real friends behind. Good Fortune attracts the insincere and shallow—those attracted to a man’s possessions and status—but Bad Fortune drives them away. A friend gained in a time of success may become an enemy in a time of misfortune. A friend, turned foe, can cause much injury. A man may mourn the loss of wealth, but he is left with something more valuable: true friendship. However, there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother!
God created man to have consciousness, not only in this life but in the life to come. The gift that Fortune offers is short-lived. Does a man lust after wealth, or does he lust after the prestige and power gained by wealth? Men hate those who are greedy, but they love those who are charitable. A man will gain a better reputation if he is generous. Therefore, why not be a giving person? “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” If a man lives in excess, he is lacking something on the inside. Since he is unsatisfied, he will fill his void with something from the outside.
Men strive for happiness, yet error leads many to seek what is falsely called good. Many think the highest form of happiness is found in the delights of pleasure. Some think happiness means gaining respect, influence, or fame. The greedy, however, are never satisfied. If a man is never satisfied, he is never truly happy. How can a man be truly happy, if he is never truly satisfied? Virtue, which is of great worth, is given to those who posses her. A wise man pursues virtue. The man who seeks perversity will never find true happiness.
Does a politician become more virtuous because he has attained a prominent position? Is he worthy of honour because of the office he holds or because of his good moral character? Does power corrupt, or does it reveal the corruption in men? Does a celebrity become more virtuous because he has attained popularity? Does fame corrupt, or does it reveal the corruption in men? What about wealth? Does wealth corrupt, or does it reveal the corruption in men?
Earthly happiness is only a shadow of true happiness. A man may own many possessions, but his possessions will not last forever. Can a man find true happiness in what is perishable and imperfect? True happiness is eternal and perfect. God is eternal and perfect. He offers man eternal happiness through salvation. The perfect is greater than the imperfect. True happiness is found in God. He is the essence of true happiness. He is its source. Thus, it is infinitely valuable to know God.
God is all-powerful. If God is all-powerful, there is nothing He cannot do! Yet God can do no evil, He cannot sin. God is perfect, therefore, He is righteous. God is perfect, thus He is without sin. Sin is imperfection. God cannot be imperfect.
When wicked men rule, virtue is trampled underfoot. The wicked are worthless vessels, and their sin will not go unpunished. In the end, virtue will not go unrewarded. Good and evil are opposites. Virtue and vice are opposites. Reward and punishment are opposites. They are in conflict. Just as wealth does not quench one’s desire for possessions, authority does not quench one’s desire for power. What do greedy men and power-hungry leaders have in common? They both hollow themselves out. They are empty on the inside, never content. Sin is a disease that rots the inner most parts of a man. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
Men seek happiness, yet many become sidetracked by pleasure. They are weak, lacking self-control. In their weakness they miss the mark. What greater weakness can a man have than willful ignorance? Willful ignorance is cowardice, and cowardice is a vice. Courage, on the other hand, is a virtue. If a man abandons goodness to embrace vice, he has fallen victim to his weaknesses. Such a man is not living to his full potential. A man who fully embraces sin is like a walking corpse. He is alive on the outside, but dead on the inside. Although he desires true happiness, he has traded it for the pleasures of this world. He is deceived by pleasure. He is caught in its snare. The wise seek truth, while the wicked chase after pleasure. True happiness cannot be found in evil. Evil enslaves a man.
Good deeds are honourable. Good deeds are virtuous. Those who attain true happiness are called children of God. Therefore, true happiness is attained through faith in Christ. “For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.” True goodness leads to unity—unity with God. Wickedness leads to separation—separation from God. Therefore, sin separates man from God. When a man is punished for his wicked deeds, it is good—it is just and righteous. God is the just and righteous judge. In the end, He will judge every man according to his deeds. When a man fights against virtue, he is fighting against God.
Do not let adversity defeat your virtue, but use adversity to strengthen it. God has given man a mind to reason, to make judgments, and to make decisions. Man has the free will to decide whether he will follow good or evil. Man pursues what he deems desirable. A man is a slave to what he obeys, whether to righteousness or to sin. A man who pursues wickedness lacks proper reason, judgment, and wisdom. A man who has turned his eyes away from the light of truth will become blinded by the darkness of ignorance. He once walked by the light of day, now he gropes in the darkness of night. When a man yields to his sinful passions, he is enslaved by his own free will.
If God has foreknowledge of a man’s actions, thoughts, and desires, does man really have a free will? God is independent of all things that exist, including time. “Then God said, ‘Let there be light-bearers (sun, moon, stars) in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be useful for signs (tokens) [of God’s provident care], and for marking seasons, days, and years.’” God is eternal and sees the past, the present, and the future. On the sixth day God created man. God foreknows a man’s beginning and end. God foreknows a man’s timeline. God foreknows the outcome of a man’s choices. Men have the free will to choose what is right or wrong, and God knows the outcome of their choices. God knows what is going to occur in the future. Nothing is concealed from an all-knowing God who is everywhere at all times. But just because God is all-knowing, does not mean that man has no free will. Adam and Eve had the free will to choose between right and wrong. So do you! God foreknew that man would sin, so He provided man with salvation through His Son Jesus Christ. Therefore, the foreknowledge of God is relational. Remember: “For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.” Indeed, God has invited you to become a member of His family.
Human reason is inferior to God’s foreknowledge. Human reason will crumble before God’s wisdom. Human reason is unable to see the future. Human reason is limited, yet God’s wisdom is boundless. Man lives in the present. He has lost yesterday, and he does not possess tomorrow. Man cannot know the length of his life. Human reason is blind to the future. Man’s reason has no knowledge of the future. Man has lost much of his knowledge about the past, he has lost much of his history. God, however, has always been. “I AM that I AM!” Man, on the other hand, has a short lifespan. God’s knowledge transcends man’s knowledge. “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God.” Man cannot fathom all things, but God does. God is the spectator of all things. Man lives in the sight of a judge who sees and knows everything. God will, therefore, reward or punish each man according to his actions.
A righteous man must never grow weary of doing right. During temptations, trials, and tribulations, remember this: we must endure until the end, so that our faith may grow strong and mature. Trials try us, troubles test us; indeed, we are refined in the furnace of affliction. The genuineness of our faith is tested and purified in the refining process. God tests the hearts of men. “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.”
Why do bad things happen to good people? “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.” Men are rebels and lawbreakers. Men are sinners, prone to evil. A man has the free will to choose between acting upright or causing harm. A man’s actions can affect others. A man has the free will to take responsibility for his misconduct. A man also has the free will to avoid responsibility for his misconduct. Furthermore, a man may be in the wrong place at the wrong time. A man may suffer due to a random accident. He may die or get injured. Time and chance—or luck as we call it—can befall a man. The elderly die of old age, for man is born to die. “It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment.” In a world tainted by sin, a man may suffer or die of disease. Man sinned, and the earth became corrupted. Therefore, man lives in an imperfect world. Sin brought death. Thus, a man dies. Metal is strong, yet it rusts and corrodes; nothing in this life lasts forever. Jesus Christ, however, will return to bring restoration: “Creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.”
The more a man embraces sin, the easier Satan can manipulate him. Sin degrades a man. The more society embraces immorality, the easier it can be manipulated. It is easier to persuade a wicked man to do evil, than to persuade a good man to do wrong. It is easier to persuade a wicked society to follow evil, than to persuade a good society to follow immorality. A hedonistic society is an empty society; it lacks true meaning and purpose. A man who loves the truth will find meaning and purpose. A man who loves falsehood will find emptiness and unfulfillment. A decaying society embraces this vice: the tolerance of evil.
Man’s senses are being degraded by technology. His senses are being manipulated. If his senses are being manipulated, then so is his perception. Manipulation is a form of witchcraft. It is a form of control. Artificial Intelligence is indeed artificial. The Digital World is indeed fake. The artificial is a copy of what is real. Without a doubt, Artificial Intelligence is lifeless. The Digital World is lifeless too. Can what is lifeless produce life? Virtual Reality is a cheap imitation. It is a counterfeit of reality. Can true happiness be found in what is false? A man’s intelligence is degraded by Artificial intelligence, his creativity too. Transhumanism will degrade man. It will usurp man’s free will. Man, who is imperfect, cannot make what is perfect. Artificial Intelligence is modeled after sinful man. The imperfect cannot create what is perfect. However, many will worship the Image of the Beast, many will receive the Mark of the Beast. A tyrant can control a man by harming his body, yet a man cannot be controlled if his mind is free from the cares of this life.
Philosophy is one of many tributaries that flow into wisdom. I am not talking about the philosophy of this world, which is only a copy of the real thing. The consolation of philosophy is this: Christ is the power and the wisdom of God, which brings salvation to all who believe. A broken man can be forgiven. A broken man can be restored. “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !!
Today is a red day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is royal. I decide to go with my tiny play cards (about 0,78 mm of hight). I have a royal hungover from my welcome back party for my son (see my yesterday’s post). I have to go to my office today and it is the solar eclipse. I honestly don’t know how I will handle all of that with a huge hangover … I keep my fingers crossed and I have my solar eclipse glasses with me (my husband got me one pair so I’m lucky since they are impossible to get anywhere near Montreal). Should I take my camera to the office ? I don’t know … I had some polish doughnuts and way too much alcohol yesterday (my Dad makes the best Spanish coffee in Montreal !!!). each time I ask myself : why I’m not a classy lady ??? And why I don’t stop before it is too late ? Well, at 51 years old, I still don’t know and I have no self control. Do I regret it ? NO ! Will I do it again ? YES ! I’m pretty much sure there is another party coming on very, very soon…And I ask myself : how do royal families treat hungover situations ?
Mucho, mucho amor for you 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 !

There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control, I fear is never-ending
Controlling, I can’t seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence
I’m convinced there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
It’s haunting how I can’t seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence
I’m convinced there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Hey, you're playing with my delirium
And the longer I wait the harder I'm gonna fall
Stop playing with my delirium

"A 'treat' is different from a 'reward', which must be justified or earned. A treat is a small pleasure or indulgence that we give to ourselves just because we want it. Treats give us greater vitality, which boosts self-control, which helps us maintain our healthy habits."

I know, I know... sportsmanship, respect, self-control. I've often been told about fair play. Personally, I must have missed that lesson, because I prefer a different kind of support. A megaphone in one hand, a middle finger in the other, and suddenly it becomes very difficult to behave reasonably. So I shout, I provoke, and I comment on every play with a rather questionable sense of objectivity. Some supporters applaud politely. Me? I turn the stands into a turbulence zone. At this point, I'm no longer sure whether I'm a supporter... or a threat to peace in the stands. 📢😈🔥
