"Blasting Heat Forecast for US Western Sates"…7-01-13.
A Winter day in Yosemite sounds pretty good right now. Stay cool out there wherever you are....even its its only in your mind….
I think every photographer has some pictures that are not a kind of his usual, some other genre. Here is such a pic I took some time ago in the village, in the back yard of my friend's house. I like all these subjects. They may tell a story about the life we do not already remember.
Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.
It won't be long now!

Frank Sinatra made his performance of this song a legend,
´cos he sang it with his unique voice.
Robbie Williams was one of the few, who sang this with his whole soul..

I've lived, lived a life that's full
Travelled each and every highway
And more, more than this
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
I saw it through without exemption
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the by-way
And more, more than this
I did it my way
Yes, there were times
I guess you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But with it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up then spit it out
I grew tall through it all
And did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
No, no not me
I did it my way
For what is a woman, what has she got?
If not herself, then she has naught
To say the things she truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
I think this may have been a Dark Eyed Junco, as I have another shot similar to this one. I was just lucky to catch the photo as he picked up a worm.

Couldn't think of an adequate story to go with this image. I'm drawn back to what it means to me looking at it. All I could think about was this song. It reminds me of my older brother I guess. Perhaps because I sat alone when photographing this scene, watching the darkness envelope these beautiful mountains and wished I wasn't. It brought back memories of many a late night spent with my older brother when we were teens. I took great comfort and trust in our conversations, his advice and opinion. We talked about everything under the sun and I remember many times sitting together and watching the stars rise high in the skies like a million tiny lanterns. It was my brother who also showed me this song before he left for boot camp. Since then we've both grown up and moved to different states but I think of those nights often when I'm up late.
Here's to
starry skies and memories of long nights... to loved ones who were willing to sit with us in both the cover of darkness and in the beauty of light.
Thank you as always for listening to my ramblings...

Happy Bokeh Wednesday
This plant was still flowering in Octobre, I think it is Monkshood, but I'am not sure.
I'am not totally content about this photo, because of the white spot, but I don't know how to improve it. Not enough skills with PS! I still wanted to upload this to find out what you think about it.
Thank you for taken your time to visit me, comments or faves are
always much appreciated!
I knew there would be lots of flowers for this challenge. My options were limited this week so a quick capture of these pretties it was :)
ELS 501 rolls south near Beecher Wisconsin after swapping trains with the Channing crew at Pembine. Temps are in the mid 40s with steady rain and thick rolling fog on this mid March day. The 501 is a former Milwuakee Road unit and is right at home on the former Milwaukee Road mainline to Green Bay.
