One of the metal garden torches did hibernate in the garden. Today I discovered it again and to my big surprise and admiration a moss colony did keep the wick 'burning' now.
I will leave it like this !

Een metalen tuinfakkel overwinterde in de tuin. Vandaag vond ik hem weer terug en tot mijn grote verbazing en bewondering hield een mos kolonie de pit nu 'brandende'.
Ik laat het zo !
Along the World Showcase Lagoon are a series of torches (one per country I think). These are lit at night and when lit are a sight to see. Looking across the lagoon, you can see all the lit torches as well as each pavilion.
I feel bad for whoever's car was stolen and torched. These kinds of things seem to be happening more often. I even found 2 other cars that had been clearly stolen and abandoned out in these rural areas. Keep an eye on your things!
Warm in the sun, crisp leaves richly laid
With patterns of gold through light and shade
Carrying the fire of Autumn.
Seasons of change, brightly ablaze
A torch in the quietness of closing days
Sharing the ambience of Winter.

Since I'm not going to be able to get out to do new photos because of some serious injuries in a car crash, I have retuned to my other drive to redo older photos.
I realize that I have grown a lot in my skills in post!
This was in colour but has a brand new edit in BW.
Any constrictive criticism would be welcome on this as I'm considering it for a monochrome competition.
We've been spending time in the back yard almost every evening lately. The pup enjoys the outdoor time with the pack, and the weather the last 10 days in Seattle has been perfect every evening.
We're going to get some classier lighting for the patio, but I just admit I love tiki torches. They remind me of being young and broke and ldealistic and living for good times. But now I'm older. ;-)
I positioned the dock so the pole would be directly under the rising sun...consequently I named this image "Sunrise Torch"
Blooming in the garden right now. :-)

When I first saw this, I mistakenly thought it was an Australian Waratah, but a kind gardener soon corrected my assumption.
The Torches Motel, Barstow, California. Donāt know too much about this place, but several years ago it was for sale for $799,000. Or you could buy it and the neighboring Route 66 Motel for a cool $1.75 million. Less than $45,000 per room! Seemed like a well-maintained place when I stopped by. Evidently the āMOTELā sign rotates, judging by other photographs of that I have seen.
