Hello friends, I am trying to get to all your lovely photos, it is just taking me awhile as I keep getting booted offline...
* Saint-Roch-de-l'Achigan *
- Around 1750, colonists from the neighboring parishes of L'Assomption, Mascouche and elsewhere began to settle in the territory which became Saint-Roch-de-L'Achigan in 1787. Mainly a green zone, Saint-Roch-de-L'Achigan therefore has an important agricultural vocation, characterized mainly by growing vegetables. The Municipality of Saint-Roch-de-l'Achigan is located forty kilometers northeast of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
- C’est vers 1750 que des colons venus des paroisses avoisinantes de L’Assomption, Mascouche et d’ailleurs commencèrent à s’installer sur le territoire qui deviendra Saint-Roch-de-l’Achigan en 1787. Majoritairement situé en zone verte, Saint-Roch-de-L’Achigan a donc une importante vocation agricole, caractérisée surtout par la culture des légumes. La Municipalité de Saint-Roch-de-L'Achigan est située à une quarantaine de kilomètres au nord-est de Montréal au Québec.

Image taken on the 10th of May, 2021, Kew Gardens, London (ignore the Exif data). Please see my previous images and comments on this sculpture ("Leaf Spirit"). In this close-up it is a bit easier to detect the design principle of this work of art. The human face is composed of leaves (imprints or cutouts). The borders or limits of the face are 'fuzzy' and merge with the botanical live forms around it. I read this sculpture as an acknowledgment of a new perception of reality (in the West at least): the concept of the individualised and autonomous self has come to an end. Rather, the self is connected to everything around it. Our face is only a momentary surface expression of the history of life and cosmos. To express this, the sculptor used a term taken from animism and its spirit worlds. The Upanishads would also be capable of providing terminology for this new experience (such as 'Tat Tvam Asi').
Elevated into the Heaven of better times (Schubert, An die Musik). Mirror self-portrait done with the Fuji X-Pro3 plus Mitakon Speedmaster at F0.95.
We have a lot of deer living in the neighborhood. Too many really. Every once in a while one comes through that's worth taking a picture of. He didn't stick around too long after he saw my camera but I managed a few pictures.

Picture done for the Grove Art Center's Photo Club this upcoming Saturday 31th of May 25.
This weeks Theme is - Self Care. Photo Club meets every Saturday at 11:30 a.m. slt. Feel free to join, everyone is welcome, with or without a picture.
Self care does not always have to be big, expensive or complicated. I have learned that less is often more.
Sometimes, it is as simple as stepping outside, breathing in the evening air, and watching the sunset. Just letting myself soak in the present moment.
There is something deeply calming about watching the sun set by the sea. As the sky softens into shades of gold and rose, and the waves gently meet the shore, the world seems to quiet down.
With the rhythmic sound of the ocean, the salty air, and the cool breeze brushing against my skin, it feels like nature is reminding me to breathe again.
My thoughts begin to slow. The weight on my chest and shoulders lifts just a little. And in that stillness, I feel my soul begin to soften.
There is something truly healing about moments like these, the way the sky shifts through colors, like it is learning to let go of the day with grace.
It does not ask anything of me. It just is. And in that silence, I find a kind of inner peace and a quiet contentment that is hard to put into words.
So if the day feels heavy or my mind is tired, I remind myself to be gentle. Sometimes all I need is to step outside and watch the sky. Let the sunset hold space for me. It is a small act of self care, but it does so much good for my mind, heart, and soul.
I deserve moments like that. 🌅💛So does everyone else too..

“We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better.”
― C. JoyBell C. ―
“Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person.”

you know who you are

It’s important to know who you are. At least until you figure out that who you are has nothing to do with anything you think about that.

ENG: Today there is a little MockUp art for the eye. On the one hand you can see myself and on the other hand the subway station Frankfurter Gate.
I see it as a little gimmick. The complete picture was created and edited with the iPhone.

GER: Heute gibt es ein wenig MockUp Kunst fürs Auge. Zu sehen bin ich einerseits selbst und andererseits der U-Bahnhof Frankfurter Tor.
Ich sehe es als kleine Spielerei. Das komplette Bild wurde mit dem iPhone erstellt und bearbeitet.
Most of the time, I literally hate to take photos of myself, or even to be on photos in general. But last week, I convinced myself I had to try at least once a studio self portrait.....and this is the result..... Me, myself and I.
Took it a while back when I was in Japan. I was really excited about taking photos in the snow but it never snowed :(. More photos to come!
Bald Eagle standing in the the water, looking at its own reflection and possibly waiting for fish to pass by. It was the first time for me seeing a bald eagle almost half soaked.
Getting their feathers all wet is a big no-no for bald eagles, since they instantly loose their ability to fly, becoming prey for other predators.
I am not the body
Nor am I the mind,
Neither the machine
Nor the interpreter
Discard the shells
Isolate the 'Self'
The examiner cannot be
The object to be examined
This 'I Am' , so pure
Immortal, unstinted
Drop of divine ocean
The ray of Almighty
