Even though fall was in heavy effect, the gardens in downtown Anchorage were still covered in all sorts of colorful plants.
I'd just missed a most amazing sunset sky but pressed on down the beach anyway to catch the afterglow . As I often do ,I became fascinated by the
backwash of the breaking waves as they retreated down the wet sand , picking up the colour from the sky. There were no filters, just as slow as I could get the shot. It was a Precious Sight, by Richard Hawley, it always is.
"Aim for a star, and keep your sights high! With a heart full of faith within, your feet on the ground and your eyes in the sky". ― Helen Lowrie Marshall.
“The great tragedy of life is not that people set their sights too high and fail to achieve their goals but that they set their sights too low and do.” — Michelangelo.
“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees” ― Henry David Thoreau.

Winter pink skies, freezing cold and snow-covered (birch) trees... And Nature acting as a balm on me.

Another photo of the beautiful female leopard that ran alongside the road as we were driving along. We stopped the car and she came up beside the car and hid behind a bush and began watching some Impala on the opposite side. They spotted her and she decided to just sit and wait. There were no other cars around for quite a while, so a wonderful sighting where we had her to ourselves for photos.
This year on Halloween I didn't feel like dressing up scary or slashery, not after the year we had so far. Somehow my mind went back in time to my first hero. A girl in a story I read as a kid, and the music of the movies they made out of it. Astrid Lindgren, a swedish novelist, wrote the Adventures of Pippi Långstrump (dt: Pippi Langstrumpf, eng: Pippi Lonstocking) with so much sass and fun, I was addicted to them. And we all need, I think, some of that spirit and positivity now again. So what's better than counter 2020 with her?
Pippi Lonstocking Theme song - multilingual.
Freckles on her nose,
(diddle diddle dee)
a girl came riding
into town one day.
(diddle diddle)
She was quite a sight.
It’s Pippi Longstocking.
(hay ho ho ha he ha ha)
It’s Pippi Longstocking.
There’s no one like her.
Happy as can be,
(diddle diddle)
Pippi tells you stories,
You just wait and see...
(tra la la la la)
she’s quite a girl.
She’s got a house,
an older funny house,
a monkey and a horse,
a suitcase full of gold and coins.
And you’ll never ever ever find
another girl so strong.
And always generous and kind.
Pippi’s world is fun.
(diddle diddle dee)
She makes kids happy.
Her make believe may stung
(diddle diddle dee)
the grown ups here in town.
Pippi's quiet unique
(diddle diddle)
with her smile disarming.
She is such an imp.
(tra la la la la)
You'll love her too.

The skies in the Himalayas at higher altitudes were a sight
to behold. The cloud formations were like we had never seen before. This was a typical landscape in Leh - stone houses, beautiful skies and barren mountains. The double rainbow was an icing on the cake.

The small little bits of velvet are so cute. :)
Picture the scene: I'm in shorts and a t-shirt, my pale skin covered in goosebumps as I stand, shivering, on a windy, uncovered mountain in the dark.
It was HORRIBLE. Don't get me wrong- it was a wonderful view and I'm very happy with the photograph, but I do not suffer the cold gladly. Yikes.
Anyway, this was my final evening of a short trip to Nice, France. I didn't have a particularly good time (as most people who read these will know; I'm a miserable so-and-so) but sitting in the car, waiting for the sun to go down over this lovely landscape... that was the best part of the trip.
It's so rare that I get to take shots of towns and cities, flooded with their unnatural light with a natural landscape as well. It was a nice change of pace, and makes it all the more disappointing that we don't have such interesting sights in the South of England. Boo.

A moment to pause and observe keenly, before the energy flows again. Willow playing in the water at the Mosman Park beach.
I walked today up from Immensee to the Rigi - in the hope for at least some sight.
So it was in the end just some fun and relaxing to climb in this weather up and find some tourists in heavy clothes.
WILD BOBCAT
I finally spotted one! I was expecting something twice as big. But, pretty kitty, I wish I had one for a pet.
Mine arrived yesterday and I must say that I am very happy with her.
Her hair is very stiff (like concrete! ;) but the style is very nice and the gel used is good- you cannot see marks from a hair net, it does not flock and there is none of it on her face.
While some fellow collectors find the fashion and especially the shoes and jewelry in combination with the fluffy dress too edgy, I must say I love it. I mean, hey, who really wants another Sunday dress with flower print for their dolls?? One of the reasons why I nevr got a Tonner doll is that their ensembles are mostly way too conservative for me.
