All of us at one time or another,

have felt like flying away.

 

If only we had wings?

 

But no matter were you go

there you are, so they say.

 

And It maybe that we have something better,

our imagination and creativity.

 

So set them free!

   

This Royal Doulton Flambe rabbit was bought by my parents. It stood on the dressing table in my bedroom for as long as I can remember. It is a miracle he survived my childhood. At almost 3" in height the little rabbit is one of my treasures.

Thank you for your views, faves and comments.

This is the mama American Alligator that has done such a good job protecting last summer's hatchlings that at least 7 and maybe as many as 10 are beating the odds and still thriving on Horsepen Bayou. I call her Dolly because she was (and perhaps still is) the mate of the bruiser I call Big Boy, both named for coloring book characters from the Shoney's Restaurant of my youth in Tennessee. I first took notice of Dolly around 10 years ago, at which time she was already more than 9 feet long, exceptionally large for a female gator. Given their slow rate of growth once they hit the 6-foot mark, she could easily be 30 years old by now, maybe older. While she seems fairly tolerant of people, she is somewhat battle-scarred and I'm guessing any of the neighborhood bulls who might be interested in taking one of her offspring has learned not to mess with her.

 

Here, she is waving for the attention of the young'uns, signalling them to watch and learn.

Thought it was time for a bit of colour and something from the Olly.

1. Die Gedanken sind frei, wer kann sie erraten,

Sie fliegen vorbei wie nächtliche Schatten.

Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jäger erschießen

Mit Pulver und Blei: Die Gedanken sind frei!

 

2. Ich denke was ich will und was mich beglücket,

Doch alles in der Still', und wie es sich schicket.

Mein Wunsch und Begehren kann niemand mir wehren,

Es bleibet dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!

 

3. Ich liebe den Wein, mein Mädchen vor allen,

Sie tut mir allein am besten gefallen.

Ich sitz nicht alleine bei einem Glas Weine,

Mein Mädchen dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!

 

4. Und sperrt man mich ein im finsteren Kerker,

Das alles sind rein vergebliche Werke.

Denn meine Gedanken zerreißen die Schranken

Und Mauern entzwei: Die Gedanken sind frei!

 

(5)Drum will ich auf immer den Sorgen absagen

Und will mich auch nimmer mit Grillen mehr plagen.

Man kann ja im Herzen stets lachen und scherzen

Und denken dabei: Die Gedanken sind frei!

 

[English]

1. Thoughts are free, who can guess them?

They fly by like nocturnal shadows.

No man can know them, no hunter can shoot them,

With powder and lead: Thoughts are free!

 

2. I think what I want, and what delights me,

But all in the silence, and just how it is

My wish and desire, no one can deny me

And so it will always be: Thoughts are free!

 

3. I love wine, and my girl even more,

Only I like her best of all.

I'm not alone with my glass of wine,

My girl is with me: Thoughts are free!

 

4. And if I am thrown into the darkest dungeon,

All this would be useless,

Because my thoughts will tear all gates

And walls apart: Thoughts are free!

  

(5) So I will renounce my sorrows forever,

And never again torture myself with some fancy ideas.

In one's heart, one can always laugh and joke

And think at the same time: Thoughts are free!

 

[中文]

1. 思想是自由的,有谁可以猜测呢?

他们如夜间的影子飞翔。

没有人可以知道他们,没有猎人可以射杀

以火药及铅(子弹):思想是自由的!

 

2. 我想我要的,想令我高兴的,

但(思想)都是沉默的,而它本来就是这样的

我的希望和愿望,而没人能阻止我

而它永远是这样的:思想是自由的!

 

3. 我爱酒,更爱我的女孩,

而只有我最喜欢她的。

我并不孤单 因有一杯酒,

(和)我的女孩陪我:思想是自由的!

 

4. 如果我被关进最黑暗的大牢,

但这一切都将是徒劳无工,

因为我的思想能冲破牢门

和粉碎墙壁:思想是自由的!

  

(5) 我将永远远离我的悲伤,

也再不想一些奇特的东西来折磨自己。

在一个人的心内,总是可以大笑和开玩笑

并在同一时间来思想:思想是自由的!

LOVE YOU STILL…

 

Far apart yet of one heart,

you are miles away yet it feels like I saw you today,

the thought of you fill my head

as I lay on my bed

and until time stand still

I will love you still.

Sweet night…

Picture by Chopay Wildcat

I heat up and I, I can't come down

I swear I'm spinning I'm on a merry go round

And I picked up a joy to my face

My heart beats faster than the regular pace and

I'm not sure of what it is

I asked my mother to help me with it

And she said daughter you've reached a jones

And that's pure loving so carry on

Come to my place

You know I'll be waiting for you

Cause I really need you so

You know I'll be waiting for you

Be on your way

You know I'll be waiting for you

And we can handle it real slow

You know I'll be waiting for you

You keep me thirsty licking my lips

I'm hungry for you to please my hips

And don't stop there prepare to sweat

I'm getting hotter and you ain't made it here yet

So won't you hurry make no haste

Cause you're the fruit I, I long to taste

And just in case I start before you reach me first

I've unlatched the door

Thank you everyone for your visit, favourites and comments.

There's no greater mystery behind the power of positive thinking.If we assume before the fact that we can't accomplish something, we almost certainly won't. If we believe that we can, we are much more likely to succeed. At least we'll make the effort.

 

We talk ourselves out of interesting opportunities all the time - when we ought to be talking ourselves INTO them.

It's really hard for me to try to explain how hard it is to motivate myself to do any photography these days whilst I continue to recover from my knee injury. Recovery has been seriously interrupted by lockdowns and closures of gyms...indeed, I've not even been able to see a physio for over 6 months. With all of that my fitness has suffered considerably and so even short excursions can sometimes feel like I'm hitting the wall at mile 22 of a marathon. Therefore, the thought of making the effort to climb a hill for photography when the conditions are less than ideal...well, it doesn't appeal.

 

When on the hill, a different fear now presents itself. Fear of another injury. I used to head out without a care in the world really. Sure, I might slip and fall, but I always felt that I was the master of my own destiny, even in those circumstances...but now it is different. My body just failed when I injured my knee, with very little in the way of warning, just a little knee pain like I've had for years anyway. The actual step I took when my tendon snapped was so incredibly innocuous, it's the type of step I've taken thousands, if not millions, of times before...it was just like going down the stairs at home...but in that moment, my tendon chose when I was alone, on a hill, in inclement weather and without a mobile signal, to snap...not at home, going down the stairs. And now, although the injured knee presents no pain, my other one does, so the fear is that that will someday go too, as so often seems to happen with people who rupture one tendon, eventually the other one ruptures too. Add to that a lack of strength in the injured knee, some balancing issues and a tendency to give way without warning...that all adds up to a heck of a lot of nervousness when going off the beaten track.

 

The day I took this photo was no different in many ways. I was solo. The weather was inclement. There was no-one really around. I did have some extra protection in the form of a satellite transceiver that enables me to send an SOS and I did tell my wife where I was this time. But with boggy conditions underfoot, it still meant my mind wasn't wholly invested in photography until I'd set up my tripod and decided to wait, in the cloud and drizzle, for things to happen. And so I waited...and waited...and waited. About 2 hours later I felt the subtle change in temperature on my neck as the sun tried to break through the misty conditions. Poised with my finger on the shutter just hoping for the mistiness to clear a little to reveal the landscape, the conditions brightened to the left of the scene you see here until not only were the two tress visible, but also the landscape beyond...and low and behold, a rainbow. What resulted was a stitch pano consisting of 7 vertical frames and 160 megapixels of Lake District loveliness. This scene lasted for all of 30 seconds...and then it was gone.

 

I don't tend to big-up my photography, especially these days. I tend to work behind the scenes, especially for anything from Snowdonia, where I spend most of my time, refining my project and building, what I hope will be, a quality book. However, when I go elsewhere, it is sometimes nice to share what I captured, and I think even I like this one enough to shout about it.
