Unusual to see this female mule deer still letting her large fawns nurse this late in the year. They are normally weaned by now.

Perhaps more of a bonding exercise than a nutritional requirement.

 

The most noticeable differences between white-tailed and mule deer are ear size, tail color, and antler configuration. In many cases, body size is also a key difference. The mule deer's tail is black-tipped, whereas the white-tailed deer's is not. Mule deer antlers are bifurcated; they "fork" as they grow, rather than branching from a single main beam, as is the case with white-taileds.

This time I’m here to show you my build for the Mygeeto target. This time the insurgents are tracked down to Mygeeto where they have fortified themselves inside a abandoned mining facility that was used to get ores and metals for the Empire’s war instruments. The build started out with the bottom snowy ground and I built it slowly up with the rocks and snow on either side of the facility entrance. The section above the entrance was a challenge to get right cause it is placed at and angle and I really wanted it to look like it fit with the rest. Other small details such as the minifigs, crates and rubbish were added towards the end.

 

If you enjoyed this, I’d love to hear some comments and feedback on the build. You can also find a video where I talk more about the build on my channel.

This is fan made music video I have been working on for quite some time on and off due to school. I wanted to know what my graphic design peeps thought about this, so I decided to upload a preview of it. The storyline behind the video is showing relationships fall in their own special ways. "Bleed Out", a song by Jason Derulo off of his amazing album Future History, is such an emotional song IMO, and I really wanted to capture the song in video. In this preview, you will see just small snippets of what the full video will be. I hope you like it and please give me any critiques you may have or just tell me what you think about it. This is just uploaded to my Flickr only, as I want to keep the happenings of this video away from YouTube at the moment. :P Plus I want to show my graphic design community another passion of mine, which is video editing! :D I really can't wait to hear what you all think of it!

This is a Grey-headed Albatross photographed at Shag Rocks, which is 150 miles west of South Georgia, where it breeds. It is a rare albatross whose world population was estimated at 250,000 individuals back in 2004, but the population is on a downward trajectory so it is likely to be much rarer than that now, largely due to fisheries by-catch. It has been classified as endangered by IUCN. It is the same size and general appearance of Black-browed Albatross, except that it has an all-grey head and a yellow-edged dark bill. Its scientific name chrysostoma translates as gold mouth, and the generic name Thalassarche means commander of the sea.

Managed to catch this sweet little duckling from the pier at our local pond. He looked up as I shot this photo and looked so angelic and seemed to have a smile on his tiny little face. This was my best shot of all; he was just so adorable. Who could not love this one?

I've been watching alot of diorama/crafting vids on youtube of late, and it inspired me to give it ago. So far I've just created a couple of Tatooine style walls, and 3D printed a few crates, but my skills are lacking... I was gonna wait before doing any shots but I just got this little fella.

 

This was the first shot I took with my new lens and the last shot that I took with my ND4 soft grad as it shattered of the rocks. Reasonably pleased with the results, note to one self dont track backwards on slippy rocks!

"Filet of Salmon on a Bed of Sauteed Leeks and Green Onion".

 

Best viewed large.

 

Saw this on a menu once, and although I did not order it, I decided to try to create it at home. It has been a favorite of mine for several years.

 

Preheat the oven to 350F.

 

Trim the ends of the leeks, cut the bottom part of the leek in half, lengthwise, and thinly slice the white part, as well as about one inch of the light green. Sadly the bulk of it gets thrown away. If you buy them by the pound, you'll see why these become an expensive item! Leeks grow in very sandy soil, so wash the cut leeks carefully to get all the grit out. Trim and slice the green onion the same way. For two salmon filets, I used 2 leeks and six green onion.

 

Season the salmon with salt and pepper and bake 10-15 minutes. A general rule of thumb is about 10 minutes per inch of thickness, if you like your fish cooked through.

 

In a pan, heat equal parts olive oil and butter. Add the leeks and green onions, salt and pepper to taste, and saute until soft. Should take about 10 minutes.

 

Place the leek mixture on the plate and place the salmon filet on top. Pretty simple yet tasty. The sweetness of the leeks works very well with the salmon. You could also add garlic to the leek mixture, and a splash or two of white wine when sauteing would be nice as well.

...well, technically a barn :) Found it while cruising some back roads near Beaverlodge, AB.

Funny Halloween to You All!

This is a daily trip they do, out in the morning, back in the evening. You only see the amazing quantity of rooks when they are in the air; When they settle in their nests, the trees just absorb them - although they betray themselves with the noise! This was last year. There only seems to be a fraction of these this year. I wonder where they have all gone??

This is a photo taken from Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness, New Mexico.

... at the Exe Estuary, from Starcross, Devon, England.

I was sure by now

That You would have reached down

And wiped our tears away

Stepped in and saved the day

But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining

 

As the thunder rolls

I barely hear You whisper through the rain

"I'm with you"

And as Your mercy falls

I raise my hands and praise the God who gives

And takes away

 

Chorus:

I'll praise You in this storm

And I will lift my hands

For You are who You are

No matter where I am

Every tear I've cried

You hold in Your hand

You never left my side

And though my heart is torn

I will praise You in this storm

 

- Praise You in this storm - Casting Crowns

 

Hello Flickr Friends! Thanks for all the views, comments, faves and invites :))

I stood willingly and gladly in the characters of everything - other people, trees, clouds. And this is what I learned, that the world's otherness is antidote to confusion - that standing within this otherness - the beauty and the mystery of the world, out in the fields or deep inside books - can re-dignify the worst-stung heart.

This wasp is a species of eusocial wasp in the family Vespidae and is found in the temperate regions of Eurasia, particularly western Europe. Although called the tree wasp, it builds both aerial and underground paper nests, and can be found in rural and urban habitats. D. sylvestris is a medium-sized wasp that has yellow and black stripes and a black dot in the center of its clypeus. It is most common to see this wasp between May and September during its 3.5 month colony cycle.

This was a concept I was thinking about all week, I've wanted a teacup skirt for a while!

This one started college this week. I am having complex emotions about the whole thing.

Thank you for the views, comments and faves, invites and awards. Have a great day ahead!

 

This picture is doing well in many groups about the color GREEN. It was and still is a real green plant in my yard and real water drops.

I went back trout fishing again, this morning and caught these 2 Brook Trout before 8:30 am. The big one measured in at just over 15 inches long and over a pound or so. My personal record for a Brook Trout!

This always gave me the creeps...maybe if I post it on my stream it will protect me...LOL

Ok, so maybe I am a bit bored today...

Took this photograph pre-Covid-19 lockdown on a visit to Durham.

It's the famous Sanctuary Knocker that adorns the main door to the historic Durham Cathedral, probably the finest Norman cathedral in the world and part of a World Heritage Site.

The knocker is in fact a replica with the real one on display inside the cathedral.

I'm always reminded of the occasion a good few years back when the replica was made. The decision had been taken because it was thought that such an historic feature was somewhat vulnerable, being as it was on an outside door.

The children TV programme 'Blue Peter' did a feature about the making of the replica and the filmed item ended with a shot of both the original and the copy side by side.

Cut back live to the studio and presenter Simon Groom, who turns to the camera and comments: "What a beautiful pair of knockers!"

This is a Juvenile Sanderling.

 

The Pea Island Wildlife Sanctuary is an excellent place to see warblers and much larger birds like the Herons. There were thousands of White Pelicans which originate in Wyoming and come to North Carolina for winter.

This was taken on our last morning at Puerto Pollenca, we had to get up early to get ready to go back to the airport, we were in the process of packing our cases when I looked outside to see the sky taking on some amazing colours, needless to say I was off like a shot grabbing my camera and tripod charging across the beach to capture the gorgeous reflections over the water. I even managed to fine a few small rocks to place in the foreground. Not a bad way to finish our holiday 😊(1/4 f/6.3 @ 12mm NiSi GND8 Reverse grad + polarising filters v5 system holder )

This photo contrasts with my previous photo of a Cloudless and demonstrates the wide variability in wing markings for this species.

Midtown Tulsa, OK

This image captures the iconic modern skyline of London, dominated by The Shard, the tallest building in Western Europe. The dramatic sky in the background enhances the futuristic architecture of the buildings. On the left, the distinctive, egg-shaped London City Hall seamlessly blends into the surroundings. The River Thames adds a calm, reflective quality to the scene, while the green trees provide a touch of nature amidst the urban landscape.

J aime beaucoup cette chanson de

J'ai tant caché mes différences

Sous des airs ou des faux semblants

J'ai cru que d'autres pas de danses

Me cacheraient aux yeux des gens

Je n'ai jamais suivi vos routes

J'ai voulu tracer mon chemin

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Ou l'on oublie ses souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Se rapprocher de l'avenir

 

J'ai perdu tant de fois la trace

Des rêves pour lesquels je vivais

Je n'ai pas su te dire je t'aime

Seulement te garder

Il faut aussi dire ses doutes

Et les poser dans d'autres mains

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et dessiner des souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et croire encore à l'avenir

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et dessiner des souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et croire encore à l'avenir

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Se rapprocher de l'avenir.

 

As I hid my differences

Air or under false pretenses

I thought that others do not dance

Me hiding in the eyes of people

I have never followed your route

I wanted to trace my way

 

To go higher, go higher

Or we forget memories

Jump higher, go higher

Move towards the future

 

I lost both times the trace

Dreams where I lived

I have not been able to tell you I love you

Only you keep

It must also be doubts

And ask them in other hands

 

To go higher, go higher

And draw memories

Jump higher, go higher

And believe in the future

 

To go higher, go higher

And draw memories

Jump higher, go higher

And believe in the future

Jump higher, go higher

Move towards the future.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. The post-Christmas sales are in full swing and the city descends into chaos as this store worker looks quite harassed by the whole thing - enjoy!

This 365 is TOUGH! Many days are a breeze as scenes fall into my lap.. other days I have to go out and do some landscape hunting. This one worked out ok.. but what the hell am I gonna do for tomorrow?

. . Curling up with a good book.

For Macro Mondays theme; "This, I Love". HMM!

(The corner of my paperback book measured 1/4 inch square. I stuck it in a mini vise - it fanned open a tiny bit - and you see the results.)

Just when my hope had gone

Just when i needed someone to give me love

you came and rescued me

you showed me right there

Just what i've been waiting for

lifted me up

guided me out from the dark

Just when i needed it most

You showed me the meaning of love

This was taken last year on a frozen day. More wintry and frosty images to come, taken more resently. All Flickr friends, have a wonderful Friday, and to all in North America located in the areas with severe cold, stay safe and warm! And to all on the other side of the globe with severe heat in Australia, be safe too!

A post rush hour outbound Metra commuter train arriving at the Riverside Metra station. This town has one of the more interesting train stations. Along with the seemingly standard looking CB&Q depot it has some very picturesque buildings in the immediate area around the depot. And of course it has an amazing amount of 70mph Metra rush hour express trains and Amtrak trains hauling a** thru here. They do not call it the "Racetrack" for nothing
