Dear friends, thank you very much for your visit, faves and kind comments!
I wish you have a nice week ahead!
While I have worked on a few small projects, I haven't posted for months due to other committments. Here's the start, I hope of more regular committment.
“Just start off and then the adventure carries your way. “ Anonymous. The season is fast approaching for the warblers and other neat birds to return. I have been working a lot to save up a few loonies for our next road trips coming up soon and I am excited for our next adventures. Meanwhile, here is another set of images from last spring. It was a treat to watch a pair of Avocets wading about in a field in Saskatchewan. We don’t see these birds in our area. I shall catch up with all of you soon again.

When we started the evening walk it didn't look like we are going to have a bright sunset.But the sky was burning. Fortunately we were not far away from home so I ran back to catch the very last part of the sunset....

Just turned 18 today, quite excited. I decided to start uploading images without a border now.
Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian flickr friends out there! Hope you have a wonderful day!
This picture looks harder than it is because the word was soo long. I had to do it a couple times. By the 6th time, I was able to write the words faster and nicer.

So, generally I'm not a fan of cropping images to a non-standard sized format. I don't know why, they're digital images and can be any size they want to be since I rarely get them printed out, but still I hesitate and dislike it.
But today's image is one of those that I couldn't resist the crop for. This is how I would have shot it, if I had more than my 40mm with me or the ability to hover. (still working on that)
Since this is how I would have shot it if it were possible, I don't feel terrible about the crop, but still it bugs me. Weird, isn't it?
Anyway, even with the crop I like this shot. Especially knowing it was done very early in the morning without a tripod!
Hope everyone has had a good day.

One month ago, the southern Africa section of the botanical garden was just beginning to come into bloom. It is still beautiful!
Shot for the Crazy Tuesday group - Opposites Attract.
Since fruit was allowed, I went with the tart fruit encased seed that fuels our economy. I give you the simple: coffee bean.
On the right is the actual coffee bean fruit on top of a coffee bush leaf (I have my own coffee plants that I grow and they happen to be currently ripe). Inside that red ripe coffee cherry, are seeds that are to become coffee beans.
The coffee beans first need to be fermented, washed, dried, and eventually roasted.
Two polar ends of a product.

@Danube Delta.
Trees crossing from summer to autumn, that moment when colors start to change on some trees faster.
It's the first sign of September, my favorite month.
The start of Cinco de Mayo.
L863 starts their trek towards Madison at the first crossing out of Reedsburg with 5 cars and two SD40-2s. They'd pick up 25 grain loads at Rock Springs and a few boxes at Baraboo, giving them a much more respectable train.
Se una rana si tuffa in una pentola d'acqua bollente, salta subito fuori perché avverte il pericolo. Ma se si tuffa in una pentola d'acqua tiepida, che viene portata lentamente a ebollizione, non si muove affatto, rimane lì anche se la temperatura continua a salire. E alla fine muore bollita, se qualcuno non la salva. Il nostro sistema nervoso collettivo è come quello della rana: serve una scossa improvvisa perché ci rendiamo conto del pericolo. Se invece ci sembra graduale, anche se arriva velocemente, restiamo seduti senza reagire.

Thailandia, spiaggia di Chaweng, Koh Samui. Una rana si adagia su una foglia esposta al sole equatoriale.
Buona giornata :)

again sunflowers are in the bloom.
After my focus in the last two or so seasons too much on the aspect to get a fine aperture star of the sun, i now consider more to get the sunflower highlighted. Maybe I therefore just stress it a little too much to keep the aperture max wide open ... my guess F5.6 would be better: flower sharp and backgroudn still as bokeh.
