Hello There!
I just love chives! They are wonderful to eat and they make great photo subjects. I decided to dress up this bloom with an effect called Van Gogh I from Topaz Studio. Hope you enjoy!
Happy Sliders Sunday! HSS!

I've always liked the subtle relaxing tones of watercolour paintings , I thought this misty frosty morning had a similar feel.
A tranquil black-and-white analog photograph capturing a misty rural landscape. The scene evokes a sense of mystery and solitude. Shot on APX 100 / Fomapan film with a Minolta Dynax 700si, the image is unedited, highlighting the timeless beauty of analog photography.
(I upped the camera's ISO setting for this shot.)

The latest #macromondays challenge #Pastel prompts me to share this picture with you.
Pastel tones are a range of soft, light colors that have a low saturation or intensity. They are often described as delicate, muted, and soothing. Pastel colors are created by adding a large amount of white to a pure hue, resulting in a lighter and less vibrant version of the original color.
Here are some commonly recognized pastel tones:
Baby Blue: A pale, soft blue reminiscent of a clear sky on a sunny day.
Mint Green: A light, cool shade of green with a hint of blue, similar to the color of mint leaves.
Lavender: A pale, light purple shade with a touch of pink, reminiscent of lavender flowers.
Pale Pink: A gentle, soft pink hue that evokes a sense of sweetness and innocence.
Lemon Yellow: A light, muted yellow color resembling the pale shade of a ripe lemon.
Peach: A warm, soft orange-pink color reminiscent of the flesh of a peach.
Dusty Rose: A muted, slightly grayish shade of pink, often associated with vintage or antique aesthetics.
Lilac: A pale, light purple color with a slight blue undertone, similar to the color of lilac flowers.
Pale Yellow: A very light, delicate shade of yellow, resembling the softness of a spring daffodil.
Seafoam Green: A pale, greenish-blue color inspired by the hues of the ocean foam.
Pastel tones are commonly used in various fields, including fashion, interior design, graphic design, and art. They are known for creating a calming and soothing atmosphere and are often associated with femininity, innocence, and nostalgia. Their gentle and subtle nature allows for easy blending and harmonious combinations, making them popular choices for creating soft and harmonious color palettes.

In case it's part of graffiti on a wall. Also please see the detail of the small hook at the bottom left to get an idea of the dimensions.
This is my sanctuary, where night softens the edges.
The world dims, shadows linger, and I let myself exist without performance.
A place to land, to hold still, to be.
A late morning walk along the shore of Lake Starnberg, where the mist veils the Alps in the distance. The familiar mountain peaks remain hidden, though I know they are there—I've seen them many times before in clear detail. But not today. The sun is up, yet mostly obscured by clouds, casting a soft, diffused light over the landscape. A shimmering reflection stretches across the water, a long beam of light breaking through the haze. To the right, the mist thickens, blurring the horizon and erasing all clarity. A tranquil, almost dreamlike scene of light, water, and uncertainty.
And since a photo needs a frame, a few branches of a tree shoreside where I am standing

This is my sanctuary, where light, life, and calm converge. Every corner holds my story, a private refuge to breathe, reflect, and recharge.
The first frosty morning of autumn, with car windows iced over and the lawn sparkling with frost. Beautiful.
This is my sanctuary, where I start and end my day.
Coffee poured, meals made, small pauses taken between everything else.
A space shaped for care, rhythm, and the quiet act of tending to myself.
she’s here, but also elsewhere — her expression suspended in the quiet between thoughts. the window turns the café into a vessel of layered lives: pedestrians blur with bottles, conversations mix with traffic. it’s one of those instants when the city forgets its pace and lets time stretch just long enough for a silent pause.
A ship lies rigged and ready in the harbour
Tomorrow for old England she sails.
Far away from this land of endless sunshine.
To my land full of rainy skies and gails.
And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow,
Though my heart be full of tears at this farewell,
For you are beautiful,
And I have loved you dearly,
More dearly than the spoken world can tell.
~Roger Whittaker
The last farewell — a quiet, weathered pause at the edge of memory, where light folds over what we leave behind.
Endless rows of shelf fungi are not very special, but I think with this POV the irregular patterns are still very fascinating.

Warm evening light sculpts a stack of towering cumulus into peach and gold. Mid-level bands slice across the frame for rhythm while the lower cloud base settles into shadow. A tight panoramic crop keeps the focus on light and structure.
A quiet corner of Harbour Square Park in Toronto, where a small set of stone steps rests by the lake under a canopy of early-fall leaves. The warm evening light brings out the texture in the stone and foliage, capturing an everyday moment of calm along the city’s waterfront.

A cold and frosty start in search of mist fog on a quintessential winters morning was only punctuated by the sound of speeding traffic down the M42, a treat for everyone I'm sure.

It felt like she saw me first. Not just another flower, but something quietly proud of its softness. I stood there with the camera, caught a little off guard—like I’d just been smiled at unexpectedly. There’s a boldness in gentleness if you let yourself notice it.

It looks a bit like ice, but it isn't. This is a close-up of a semi-transparent convex plate of fiber plastic laying down at a construction site and often used in ceilings of top floors.
Making the most of my week off work, yet another morning out with the camera. this time back to Tiddesley Wood in time for sunrise.
Normally i'm pretty found by the colors of the spring time, but recently i've enjoyed playing a bit with some shadow work and a bit heavier contrast.
walking through the city, finding light, letting moments happen. portraits should feel like passing glances, like something seen from the corner of your eye. no studios, no setups—just people in places, blending in, standing out. here, the glow does the work, wrapping him in warmth, making the ordinary feel cinematic. part of a series with jan hofer, longtime anchor of germany’s iconic news program tagesschau.
