I try to vary my posts so they aren't they same old thing (would be easy to do). Time for a waterfall.

This is the bottom of Rainier Park's Narada Falls. I found the falling waters interplay and flow thru these golden boulders as beautiful as the rest of the falls (shown in comments).

Thank you for taking a look!

Sooo over it

Tried something new last night at the pier in Huntington Beach…long exposure! First time I had ever done this down there, and I think I found a new favorite way to shoot!

"Try Again Tomorrow"

(feat. Darling West)

If all you did today was, open your eyes

If all you did today was, turn off your phone

If all you had the energy to do today was, cry

Then you should know, that you're not alone

And it's okay to hide

If all you said today was, leave me alone

Push your friends away, and say 'go mind your own'

If all you did today was try to not feel anything, for anyone

Then you should know, you're not alone

'Cause it's okay, it's okay to feel lost, and feel tired

It's alright, you can turn off the light uninspired

And try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow

Alright

Just try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow

Alright

If all you did today was, try to survive

Force a smile and say that, everything's fine

If all you did was try to keep up appearances, a front for everyone

Then you should know, that you're not alone

Then it's okay, it's okay to feel lost, and feel tired

It's alright, you can turn off the light uninspired

And try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow

Alright

Just try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow

Alright

All I did today was, go back to bed

Pray for better days as I, laid down my head

🎶🎶🎶

Sometimes I wake up in the morning

To red, blue, and yellow skies

It's so crazy I could drink it like tequila sunrise

Put on that Hotel California

Dance around like I'm insane

I feel free when I see no one

And nobody knows my name

God knows I live

God knows I died

God knows I begged

Begged, borrowed and cried

God knows I loved

God know I lied

God knows I lost

God gave me life

And God knows I tried...

Trying to get a few Fall color shots before they're gone for the year. Taken on my way home from work tonight. This caught my eye with all the different leaves and the Red Maple reflection.

I stood alone upon the highest cliff-top

Looked down, around, and all that I could see

Were those that I would dearly love to share with

Crashing on quite blindly to the sea...

A bee trying to balance on a small pink flower of a bush from my garden

... what to do during the Corona Crisis ...

Girl you've got nothing but time

Oh you are a shining star

"TRY TO BE A RAINBOW IN SOMEONE'S CLOUD"

Was it worth it?

We sat in the car for 3.5hrs while the rain lashed down and no sign could be seen of anything that looked like a break in the flat grey sky.

I felt sure that sometimes after stormy conditions, the sky takes on a dramatic feel.

When finally the rain eased but still the sky was nothing too great.

The temperature had dropped and even though we were well wrapped up, I began to feel the cold after a short while. I'd captured a few images but certainly not what I'd hoped for.

Then just as we'd headed back towards the car, the light changed, the clouds took on a great depth and it started to kick off. Ken spotted this rainbow but scared I'd miss it, I pointed the handheld camera at the nearest subject (sheep)

Well the rainbow continued to last and last, in fact there were two at one point.

I said to Ken, "I'm off to the Drinking dinosaur" as he lent against the car, thinking we were off.

The Benny Hill moment struck, you know the one, where you run as fast as your legs will carry you.

In my case "not very fast" praying that long lasting rainbow will stretch, just a little longer.

Finally I made it, Ken thought CPR might be in order lol!

I clicked away, hoping my quickly adjusted settings would be ok, with the newly acquired 5d. In the panic, the tripod had been left packed in the car and Ken being the wonderful husband he is ran back to get it for me.

Sadly all too late, as he cursed on his return

I just prayed the images I'd captured would be ok.

After all, it had been the best sky of the week. One in all honesty, I should have been better prepared for.

It gave us both a laugh afterwards, although we both ached that night

Almost forgot, if you look carefully there are some seals visible on the beach below. On one of the sunrise mornings we did, there must have been over 100 at one point

to take photos with my new big stopper

....to get the shots like this with a darkish backdrop and the sun just right (to me)

Always hand held and straight from camera.

I tried for this shot last weekend but an eastbound never came through. I waited patiently for 90 minutes but eventually it got too dark. So, I went back today and got lucky. I was hoping for an eastbound train while there was enough light in the sky to use the colorful clouds for a backdrop. I hoped. I got :-)

Have a great weekend everyone :-)

Trying to stay warm on these cold days 😊

My first try at growing these beautiful Crocosmia flowers from corms given to me by a neighbourhood Community Gardener.

The abundant eye-catching, brillliantly red, tubular [hummimgbird attracting] flowers appear in midsummer atop bold, slightly arching, sparsely branched 3-foot-tall stems. Crocosmia's mid-green leaves are pleated and swordlike. www.finegardening.com/plant/crocosmia-lucifer

Noteworthy Characteristics

Crocosmia is a genus of about 7 species of cormous plants from grasslands in South Africa. [...].

Genus name comes from the Greek words krokos meaning saffron and osme meaning a smell for the smell of dried flowers steeped in warm water.

'Lucifer' is an Alan Bloom hybrid (Crocosmia x Curtonus) which has flowers and foliage that are similar to gladiolus. A clump-forming plant that features tubular, nodding, scarlet red, one-sided flowers borne along the upper portions of stiffly arching, sometimes branched, flower scapes (stems) typically rising up to 3' (infrequently to 4') tall and slightly above the narrow, sword-shaped, basal leaves. www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDe...

I normally don't really do "scenery" but liked how this came out non the less.

trying to clean out some files and found this image of my Hyacinth Bean Vine that I fell in love with...

Maybe he has a better service provider than I have, but I don't think there is cell service down in the gorge. I used my phone too...as a camera hahaha.

This is a natural sandy area at a plunge pool for a small waterfall.

Taken from the top of a hilly overlook at Hocking Hills State Park, Ohio.

I tried something a bit different with this photo. It's a hand blended 3 exposure HDR. Rather than let Lightroom do it for me, I chose to blend the photo using a series of masks in Photoshop. I wasn't happy with the colours, so B&W was an easy choice. Rather than using the standard, high contrast B&W, I lifted the black-point to about 20 to get a nice vintage film look.

I would tell you about the things

They put me through

The pain I've been subjected to

But the lord himself would blush

The countless feasts laid at my feet

Forbidden fruits for me to eat

But i think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution

Forgiveness for the things i do

But before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments i kept

If you try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon

Decency look down upon

The scapegoat fate's made of me

But i promise now, my judge and jurors

My intentions couldn't have been purer

My case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience

Peace of mind after what I've been through

And before we talk of any repentance

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments i kept

If you try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution

Forgiveness for the things i do

But before you come to any conclusions

Try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments i kept

If you try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps

Keep the same appointments i kept

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

If you try walking in my shoes

Try walking in my shoes

Trying to photograph this beautiful part of the honeysuckle blossom with the interesting bokeh behind, this tiny little fly photo bombed the picture and made it perfect to me. :-D

Try viewing in the dark! 😊

Tried to make this P51 mustang look as powerful as it actually is. With it's massive Rolls Royce Merlin engine. 27 Liters V12... Simply an amazing machine.

I tried to create this whitebox effect. I got a couple of more shots coming up from this amazing aircraft in the same style!
