I was thinking of you when I woke up this morning, and said I'd try to capture my pondering thougths...

- Sheila:

Naked Indian, dancing like a maniac, driving along the Coast of Gaspesie, walking through the Parc Lafontaine, making love in the car in industrial Lachine, crying in your arms that night in September when my Mom was sick, hiking in St-Donat, getting locked out of our room at the Bed & Breakfast while we were half naked... so many more things to think about, but so many more things to do together.

- Ben:

Night walks aside the lakeshore, playing arcades till 4am, kiss whenever we crossed a street in Outremont , dancing in the rain in front of my house, hiding french fries in the plants, dance to classical music in the snow at 2am, kayaking in bonaventure, biking in ile Bizard , birdie kisses, Tracy, the emotion when you got your cam, walking in complete darkness in St-Donat, cappucino in Caplan , wolfman in st-flavie, July 10th 2007, Singing blood roses while im holding you in my arms, She wants revenge concert, kisses behind your neck while washing dishes, saying hello to everyone while driving on the 132, slow dancing without music in your kitchen...

** Sadly, Ben does not have a Flickr account, but I do share it all with him nonetheless!

I think this is a Saguaro Cactus that was cross pollinated with a Crested Wortleberry Cactus.

I saw cactus for the first time in Phoenix when we went to the Phoenix Botancial Gardens. We took the tour which was about an hour and well worth it. I learned so much. Such as what/who causes the holes in the Cactus.

Saguaro cacti are host to a great variety of animals. The gilded flicker and Gila woodpecker excavate nest cavities inside the saguaro's pulpy flesh. When a woodpecker abandons a cavity, elf owls, screech owls, purple martins, finches and sparrows may move in.

The Lights Lantern Festival is a wonderfully spiritual event in the Mojave desert just outside of Mesquite Nevada. This was my 4th year going and I think my best year. 2020 has been a stressful year but it was great to see people launch their hopes and prayers into the heavens.

Happy Slider Sunday and a great year to all my old and new friends here on Flickr. In case you didn’t know it, you mean the world 🌎 to me . When feeling low I know there’s always a home here for me and a beautifully creative and supportive family. My thoughts are with you for only good things in the year ahead 👍

I do not know why I am so happy! I think I love Autumn

+ I have compiled a set of your portrait works here .

"I think I'm with Dave on this. I can't get on with this weather at all. But you love it don't you?" Lee looked at me as he finished the sentence, and then at his watch. His beloved Aston Villa were due to kick off against Chelsea at 5:30pm, and Mr Bezos and his board of big chiefs had generously enabled those of us who subscribe to his streaming and next day delivery service the rare opportunity to watch some Premier League football during the festive period.

I grinned, although by this stage the effects of recent consecutive adventures into a very damp outside world were beginning to dampen my enthusiasm too. I'd managed to escape with the camera three times already since work had finished, and been repaid with a thorough soaking every time. My determination to embrace the conditions whatever they brought was beginning to wear off, as once more I struggled to keep the lens free of rain spots. I too was thinking about that football match on the television, perhaps with a glass of single malt to accompany the evening ahead.

But meanwhile, here we stood at Porthleven, overlooking the famous church tower that has featured in so many biblical images. Two white vans were parked in front of the church, bonnets open and no apparent sign of movement from either of them seemed imminent. Nor did any exciting drama in the sea for that matter. When the big winter storms assaulted the coast here seven years earlier, a photograph taken by Carla Regler here made the front pages of the national papers. I've yet to be here in weather quite as exciting as that, but one not very fine afternoon I will be here at high tide to witness Armageddon hit the harbour wall, the cliffs, the church, and any bystanders who haven't worked out where to watch proceedings safely from.

As we stood watching the scene, waiting for high tide and speculating as to whether it might stop raining for longer than three minutes at any one time, we stared vacantly at the two white vans. It seemed that one of them had broken down, perhaps the victim of a flat battery and the other had appeared with a set of jump leads to stir it back into action. With the light starting to go, we discussed how easy it would be to clone them out of the final image, partially obscured as they were by the railings on the harbour wall. We agreed it might be beyond our limited skills and for a while watched the hardy group of surfers who seemed not the least bit bothered by the rain nor the fact that we were in the middle of winter.

After what seemed an age, the vans finally drove away, but the waves hitting the coast weren't quite what we'd hoped for. However it was one of those afternoons where the rain hung in visible drifts over the land and the sea. As the sky darkened, it brought an opportunity to capture all of that weather in blue tones across the entire palette before us. It's a picture which I could have used to describe the afternoon without a single one of the words in this story.

I'm glad I waited and took a further and very thorough soaking as I raced back to where I'd parked my car in the fast fading light. Thank goodness I have a raincoat that stands up to this weather. I even got home in time for the match, which wasn't at all bad. With all that's happening around us, it already seems like a long time ago, yet less than two weeks have passed since I took it.

You think I should add frames to it or is it good as it is? '

Post Edit: OK...NO FRAMES IT IS based on the comments...:)

Oh yes...I almost forgot...this is a vertorama...and HDR...and has 3 textures on it...and has no frames which is very unlike me...:P

I recommend the View On Black to see all the details!

This is one of my texture studies again so no, there's no discolouring or weird lighting...;)

Please, feel free to comment if you like it...

Caught this cool pic awhile back and then found this perfect song to go with it...

P.O.D. Alive video

Everyday is a new day

I'm thankful for every breath I take

I won't take it for granted ( I won't take it for granted)

So I learn from my mistakes

It's beyond my control sometimes it's best to let go,

whatever happens in this lifetime

So I trust in love ( So I trust in love )

You have given me peace of mind

I, I feel so alive

For the very first time

I can't deny you

I feel so alive

I, I feel so alive ( so alive)

For the very first time (For the very first time)

And I think I can fly

Sunshine upon my face (Sunshine upon my face)

A new song for me to sing

Tell the world how I feel inside

Even though it might cost me everything

Now that I know this is beyond my control

'cause I could never turn my back away

Now that I see you (Now that I see you)

I can never look away

I, I feel so alive

For the very first time

I can't deny you

I feel so alive

I, I feel so alive ( so alive)

For the very first time (For the very first time)

And I think I can fly

Now that I know you

I could never turn my back away

And now that I see you

I could never look away

And now that I know you

I could never turn my back away

And now that I see you

I believe no matter what they say

I, I feel so alive

For the very first time

I can't deny you

I feel so alive

I, I feel so alive(so alive)

For the very first time(For the very first time)

And I think I can fly

I, I feel so alive (so alive)

For the very first time(For the very first time)

And I think I can fly

I, I feel so alive ( so alive)

For the very first time(For the very first time)

And I think I can fly

And I think I can fly

And I think I can fly

You find this kind of houses all over the "Harz"area in Germany.This house was too close to the road ( a sort of motorway) but it was breathtaking.

We viewed 8 houses like this one and now we have to think about pro's and con's of each one of them.

When it is quiet

and you are alone

do you find peace?

Breathing in the

cool fresh air

clearing out the

residue of chaos

having the solitude

to search within

and find the answers

to questions in your heart

take the time

to be alone

to listen

to breathe

and to know.

peace can be found

when you need it.

I really should have taken the time to move that damn stepladder!

Don't think I can't feel there's something wrong

You've been the sweetest part of my life so long

I look in your eyes, there's a distant light

And you and I know there'll be a storm tonight

This is getting serious

Are you thinking 'bout you or us

Think I've got this the right way up !

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from hell

Blue skies from pain

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange

A walk on part in the war

For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl

Year after year

Running over the same old ground

And how we found

The same old fears

Wish you were here

(Pink Floyd)

Think spring !

Today, we go to the polls in the Netherlands to elect a new House of Representatives. But are we taking sufficient account of the youngest generations who are not yet allowed to vote? Consider, for example, the increasing political polarization or the escalating climate crisis.

Vandaag gaan we in Nederland naar de stembus om een nieuwe Tweede Kamer te keizen. Maar houden we daarbij we lvoldoende rekening met de jongste generaties die nog niet mogen stemmen? Denk bijvoorbeeld aan de toenemende politieke polarisatie of aan de klimaatcrisis die steeds verder escaleert.

2011 is going my my year. Me and my friends. So much stuff is going to happen. Mistakes, and good things. But it's going to be awesome. Try new things, have fun, meet new people, sweet 16, getting my license, you know. It's going to be amazing. And to start it off next weekend I'm going up to Bear Creek which is a skii resort with a bunch of guys and girls for a party. <3

Happy new year everyone! :) May your hopes and dreams come true.

I think this angle works better, seeing it framed vertically. I normally like to get more sunlight on the lantern, but New Year's came early this year, so the sun isn't as high in the sky as it would be in February.
