sometimes the difference between what you were looking for and what you found can be quite visually pleasing.
I was panning to try to keep the couple in focus with the city in bokeh. instead I got this beautiful calamity.
In my face...
Two visually identical species have been introduced into the north-west Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. Although identification information is given below, this was derived for specimens from the native range. Lionfishes in the invaded range may differ significantly from native range specimens. At this time, positive identification can only be achieved through genetic analysis.
Pterois volitans Red Lionfish
The Red Lionfish has greatly elongated dorsal-fin spines. The membranes of all fins are often spotted. The body is white or cream coloured red to reddish-brown vertical stripes. The vertical stripes alternate from wide to very thin (with the thin stripes being more numerous) and sometimes merge along the flank to form a V-shape.
Pterois miles Devil Firefish
A closely-related species, the Devil Firefish (Pterois miles), is similar to the Red Lionfish. The Devil Firefish is found primarily in Indian Ocean and Red Sea (as opposed to the Red Lionfish, which is predominantly a Pacific species); however, its range extends to Sumatra where the two species co-occur. Although it appears very similar to the Red Lionfish, the Devil Firefish has fewer dorsal- and anal-fin rays. The Devil Firefish generally has 10 dorsal-fin rays and 6 anal-fin rays; the Red Lionfish usually has 11 dorsal-fin rays and 7 anal-fin rays. (USGS.gov)

Talking about the Pentacon 3.5/30 vintage lens. It may be half a century old, but optically it is a true 'generalist'. You can use it for any situation as long as the light is good. I prefer this lens to be wide open, as here. But that is a personal choice.
An Potpurri (french) is a pot with dried plant material, increasing the room smell. This is the same, visually.

Visually appealing for a photographer, but a regrettable loss of another small crumbling piece of history.

The kākā is an endangered parrot of New Zealand's North and South islands. A medium sized bird, it frequents the lowland and mid-altitude forest, seeking a wide range of food, from fruit, flowers and tree-sap to insects and small vertebrates. It is a relative of the Kea and is visually similar. This pair was in the Wellington Botanical Gardens which support a sizeable flock, re-establishing the species.

Although we look at the same thing, not all of us always see the same thing.

Nothing is a bit visually spectacular about this photo but I want to share to my friends a little of history that I learned during my recent holiday in Korea.
The picture was taken at the Demilitarized Zone of the two Koreas. There is a conference building at the right side (not seen in pic) where meetings and negotiations are held between the two Koreas. Beyond the yellow line where the North Korea's terrain and territory can be seen, taking photographs are strictly prohibited as maybe part of the agreement. However, at the South's side, picture taking was never a problem. Quite bizarre to me as there was practically nothing to see at the North's side from that point, except for a wide almost frozen river, some dirt roads. vast farm lands and typical countryside terrains.
In what is visually a mix up of heritage, former Canadian Pacific SD40-2F 9017 splits the old CP ABS signals at Tarratine, on the old CP Moosehead Sub... while adorned in Bangor & Aroostook colors. Apparently with their other engines down for various maladies, they were short of power enough to put the freshly repainted 9017 on the point of Job 1 today, instead of waiting for the PR shoot to send it west. The 9017 is leading (and fortunately hiding) LTEX GP35u 2535, and twenty-eight cars, as they head west for Canada.
Het Circulaire Logistieke project Abc Square is het eerste gebouw dat is verrezen op het 350Ha grote Schiphol Trade Park. Het is gebouwd volgens de circulaire Cradle to Cradle filosofie. Abc Square beslaat 37.000 m² aan hoogwaardige bedrijfsruimte, kantoren en multifunctionele ruimten. Het ontwerp heeft het allereerste VBI Greenscore Certificaat van Nederland ontvangen.
OPL Architecten heeft in mijn ogen een goede manier gevonden om de lange voorgevel visueel korter te maken.
The front side of a new logistics centre in Hoofdorp, near Schiphol Airport. It is designed by OPL Architects. They've done a great job to make the front visually shorter than it actually is.
The back side is the traditional array of truck docks.
This type of image has always seemed visually very attractive to me, I know that this is not my best shot but I decided to try this in a new place and this is the result. Looking at the photograph on my computer, I realize that, it seems that I was in the very center of the road taking the photograph, that is the sense that it transmits to me when I see it ... but obviously I was on the bridge, capturing and observing the speed , the lights and that loud noise of cars, trucks, motorcycles ... that great daring of the day to day. I was there between 30 and 45 minutes ... you realize the madness of life that people in general lead, we run to all places, many of the times angry or upset with this or that ... and why ? In my opinion, not at all ... because if you stop to think calmly, everything is much simpler ... but it seems that this great inertia that we carry cannot be stopped!
I hope they are all well and I also hope they do not run as much as everyone I saw go by on this highway!
And remember:
"Speed is not an advantage in a vicious circle"

the February / March 2026 exhibition @ Nitroglobus Gallery (sim-wide) by Selen & Bohemio Love
It is an honour and a pleasure to present the works of two remarkable artists and partners in SL: Selen & Bohemio Love.
For this joint exhibition, they have created an impressive collection of new works in their unmistakable style. Dreamlike, poetic, colourful — and so very Selen and Bo. The concept is strong: tender, defiant, and visually rich. “The dreamer is simply elsewhere” is the kind of line that lingers in a room.
They hardly need an introduction. Both are well established and celebrated within the SL art scene. Selen also curates and hosts extraordinary exhibitions in her own gallery space.
I invite you to wander through both halls and breathe in what they beautifully call their “poetic dissection.”
My sincere thanks to David Silence for once again creating an astonishing poster, based on a work by Selen & Bohemio Love.

Description by the artists:
Anatomy of a Dreamer is a journey through the inner landscapes of minds too often labeled mad. But what if madness is not the absence of reason, but the presence of too many dreams?
This is not a clinical exploration. It is a poetic dissection. Each scene reveals a fragment -an organ, a pulse- of the dreamer’s interior world. Not as a diagnosis, but as cartography: but as a map of vision, of solitude, of revolt. A mind that folds inward can still bloom. A soul that wanders can still sing.
Walk through imaginary courts and starlit ateliers, through memory carousels and paper storms. Meet those who speak without mouths, who build without hands, who see with piercing clarity precisely because they are no longer anchored in your reality.
Here, madness is not a cage—it’s a door. And the dreamer is not broken. The dreamer is simply elsewhere.
Each image in this exhibition is the result of a four-handed collaboration: one of us would propose an image, the other would complete it. Therefore, and exceptionally, we have signed them jointly.

It thrills me to conceptualize visually things that exist only in my perception. Inevitably this leads down some dark and lonely metaphorical roads. Literally, desolation is a key ingredient. I spend much of my creative time with the camera exploring very lonely places. It heightens situational awareness and makes me keenly aware of the nuance of the environment. There's an element of risk as times. I don't actively pursue it, but thrill to the sense of adventure that ensues when the adrenaline kicks in. Makes me feel very alive. Anyway I'm off on another tangent here. My point is conceptualization of imagination. And a springboard for that is the feeling of an unseen presence I often feel around crop fields. There's some sort of energy there to be sure. Not something that can be gauged on a scientific basis, but we're talking about my mind here, and anything goes. Since childhood I've fantasized about apparitions that exist on one plane that momentarily become visible in our realm. Wraithlike female forms is one of my favorite incarnations. I prefer my terror in beautiful forms that somehow coexist with nature. More subtle than a chainsaw wielding monster, but every bit as terrifying.
Visually it speaks for itself!
The top of the truck's tire is about as high as the cowl of the Triumph sports car. The entire belt line of the truck is higher than the roof of the TR7 by maybe 10-11 inches!
Also compare the Ram to the Tahoe 2-door (1988-2002) next to it!
Happy Truck Thursday!
Spider Rock might be one of the most visually arresting landmarks in the entire National Park Service- a massive stone tower, shining in the sun and surrounded by the walls of an undulating and bending canyon. What a delight.
Much like Monument Valley, Canyon de Chelly isn’t just part of the iconic landscape of the American Southwest, it is still a living and breathing and active community within the Navajo Nation- it is the only National Monument that is not on Federal Land, but instead, on Navajo Nation land. Spider Rock, a towering monolith of sandstone in the canyon is believed to be the home of Spider Grandmother, a spiritual figure who gives advice, medicinal cures, and help. Mindfulness of the privilege of being here is the way to go.
Across Utah and Arizona, you are in the Navajo Nation. In Navajo, sacred land is referred to as Diné Bikéyah. This land belongs to the people. Hopitutskwa, Pueblos, and Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ (Ute) land is also found across these two states and at archeological sites. It is an honor to see them.

These are the tops and bottoms of colour felt pens/ colour markers!
Sometimes I just have some fun in the studio and play with some props...
A bit more info here:
Lee Newman patented a felt-tipped marking pen in 1910.
A marker pen, fineliner, marking pen, felt-tip marker, felt-tip pen, flow marker, texta (in Australia), sketch pen (in India) or koki (in South Africa), feutre (in FRANCE),is a pen which has its own ink-source and a tip made of porous, pressed fibers such as felt.

The visually spectacular red-crested cardinal is hard to miss. Looking like a flame shooting from its head, the red crest is magnificent. This South American species, also called the Brazilian cardinal, was introduced to Hawaii in the 1930s. Despite the resemblance and common name, the red-crested cardinal (Paroaria coronate) is not taxonomically classified as a cardinal.
Five forks lined up against a wall, and lit by a torch to give an interesting shadow.
From Microsoft Copilot : "The image shows five forks standing upright on a flat surface, casting distinct shadows on a wall behind them. The forks are evenly spaced and aligned in a row. The shadows created by the forks are elongated and add an artistic element to the image, making it visually interesting due to the interplay of light and shadow. The image is in black and white, which emphasizes the contrast and texture of the forks and their shadows.
It’s like a minimalist art piece!"
Dunedin, NOVA ZELANDA 2023
Knox Church is a prominent landmark in Dunedin, New Zealand, renowned for its impressive Victorian Gothic architecture. Designed by R.A. Lawson, it was completed in 1876. It stands as one of the largest and most visually striking Presbyterian churches in the country. Its distinctive tower and spire dominate the city's skyline. The interior features a spacious nave, beautiful stained-glass windows, and excellent acoustics. Knox Church has been a vital hub for the Dunedin community, serving not only as a place of worship but also for civic and cultural events. It is a prime example of the city's rich architectural heritage.
Not a day for drying - while not quite officially winter it was just hours away from the first snow fall for the year.
It had already squeaked out a few tiny snow flakes, and I'd spent the afternoon excitedly bouncing around outside willing it to snow properly, and taking photos of everything. And freezing!
"Please hold" is for (1) the visually obvious - the pegs, and purpose of the clothes line, and (2) nature making me wait for the real snowfall ;-)
I don't know why but I've always liked pine cones, the smell is great and the natural repeating pattern of them are so visually appealing. What I liked about this photo is how you can sorta see two seasons...late fall and winter in one as the weather warmed up enough to reveal the pine cones that fell in the fall. It was nice to get out to take some pictures even if it was just my yard.
Mellow Blue had a severe eye infection when he was a baby and has vision damage as a result, He can see but not very well.
DDC-Visual Interest
This is a twist on the theme, but it's pretty obvious where Shizandra's visual interest lies.
From this perspective, the spoon-bill's left eye appeared to be injured. Some photographers (w/ large zoom lenses) nearby also confirmed the fact as well. Meanwhile, the great white egret seemed to keep an eye on his/her unfortunate friend too.
Have a peaceful day, everyone...
I was presented with my British Empire Medal today by the Lord Lieutenant of Leicestershire. It was awarded in Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's final Birthday Honours for my voluntary work helping other blind and visually impaired people to live their lives more fully and independently by helping them select the right technology and then training them to use it. It has been very rewarding, especially over lockdown and the BEM was a huge, delightful surprise.
This is Jackie and me in the gardens of Beaumanor Hall after the presentation. Photo by our daughter, Michelle.

PixNote
Digital painting created from from an original picture.
The image shows a visually striking scene featuring a goddess-like figure seated in a confident pose before a massive, ornate clock adorned with intricate golden designs. The figure is dressed in a dramatic outfit that blends futuristic and ancient aesthetics, including metallic gold armor and an elaborate headdress with fan-like extensions. Her long, wavy hair cascades over her shoulders, and her arms are raised gracefully.
The clock serves as the central backdrop, symbolizing the passage of time, with Roman numerals prominently displayed around its circular face. The structure surrounding the clock is grand, with metallic and gold accents and decorative patterns that evoke a sense of opulence and power. The sky behind the clock is moody, with clouds partially illuminated by sunlight, adding depth and drama to the composition.
The overall vibe is majestic and otherworldly, portraying themes of time, strength, and divinity.
That's what Chat GPT had to say about my sl photo.

This Hydrogen alpha (Hα) picture of the Sun caught AR2827 "flaring". This means there was an active solar storm occurring while I was capturing the images. You can tell by the brightness of the area. There is a sunspot in the middle of the area. However, it is visually being overcome by the active flare. It is always interesting to observe the pattern of the plasma around active regions compared to the surrounding areas.
In my constant effort to publish interesting and visually appealing photos, I usually refrain from doing self portraits - for good reason. Here, however, comes an exception. Behold yours truly in all his semitransparency.
This is about as much as I can dare to show of myself. If in doubt, just look through me.
Technically, the transparency was not done in post processing. With an exposure of 30 seconds I could comfortably walk right into the image and stand where I wanted to while the camera was exposing. It took me about 7-10 seconds to walk to this spot. This means that I was there to be captured by the camera for about 10 seconds less than the rest of the image - hence the semitransparency.
This image should be viewed as large as possible, so please press 'L' to view it in the lightbox.
Despite my presence - enjoy!

1. Danilo (Onillad) ever present commenting on my photos. (true or false?)
2. Jay (jahrock91) sometimes not commenting on my photos (hehe)
And last but not the least:
3. Dosia (SIGHT EFFECTS), she says I am her first contact here on Flickr (I am deeply honored). Thank you. Visit her stream, she has an eye for good photography. Keep on shooting, my friend.
Pedestrian crossings in the UK are phasing out beeping sounds in favour of quieter, more intelligent systems like Puffin crossings. This reduces noise pollution for residents and prevents confusion for visually impaired pedestrians at complex junctions where multiple crossings are nearby. Modern crossings use vibrating cones under the box to signal safety.
Key Reasons for the Change:
Reduced Noise Pollution: Constant, 24-hour beeping in town centres is often complained about by nearby residents.
Preventing Confusion: If multiple crossings are close together, beeps from different locations can confuse visually impaired users, leading them to step out at the wrong time.
Accessibility Improvements: Modern "Puffin" (Pedestrian User Friendly Intelligent) crossings use sensors to detect pedestrians, featuring a tactile rotating cone under the control box instead of just sound. This helps both deaf and blind pedestrians.
Safety Technology: Many newer crossings now feature cameras that detect pedestrians, allowing them to cross only when the road is clear, often without the need for an audible sound.
Reducing "Dozy" Crossing: The removal of sound encourages pedestrians to look at the lights and traffic, rather than just relying on sound.
While some older "Pelican" crossings still beep, the shift is towards smarter, quieter, and more accessible infrastructure.

There is a town in north Ontario,
With dream comfort memory to spare,
And in my mind
I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there.
Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us
Helpless, helpless, helpless
Baby can you hear me now?
The chains are locked
and tied across the door,
Baby, sing with me somehow.
Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us
Helpless, helpless, helpless.
NB: There was always a lot of speculation about the town referred to in the opening line being Omemee Neil’s childhood town. Neil set the record straight in a 1995 Mojo interview with Nick Kent:
"Well, it's not literally a specific town so much as a feeling. Actually, it's a couple of towns. Omemee, Ontario, is one of them. It's where I first went to school and spent my 'formative' years. Actually I was born in Toronto..."
I love the reference to more of a feeling as opposed to a specific town. Many sights leave us feeling helpless…This was shot just outside of Omemee.

Anselm Kiefer (*1945) visually reinterprets the title of the collection of poems published by Paul Celan in 1952 (including 'Death Fugue' and 'Corona') in this German bunker, which is studded with dried poppy plants. The bunker originally stood on the banks of the Rhine as part of the so-called Westwall.

Once verified the operation and management of the new camera and tested its proper functioning and not to tire the staff, I will upload pics as varied as possible of my huge stock.
In this case it is Zúrich that is a city whose tourist center is beautiful and I have many already edited and about to be uploaded to Flickr.
The conjunction of the urban landscape and the river Limmat gave me the ability to shoot the camera without rest and that most of them are good. The problem is to choose what to show in my gallery, because I have always intended to make it as varied as possible.
The opinion is always personal and there is the possibility of what I like, for another it is a vulgar photograph.
The edition is slightly different from my last images. I have tried to make it visually beautiful even though it is already by itself.
By the way, on the terrace with red flowers that looks to the left of the image, we ate my wife and myself. We ate very well, but the Swiss bills are terrifying.
Thank you in advance for your visits and comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Una vez comprobado el funcionamiento y manejo de la nueva cámara y comprobado su buen funcionamiento y para no cansar al personal, voy a volver a subir fotos lo mas variadas posible de mi inmenso stock.
En este caso le toca a Zúrich que es una ciudad cuyo centro turístico es bellísimo y tengo muchas ya editadas y a punto de ser subidas a Flickr.
La conjunción del paisaje urbano y el rio Limmat me dio la posibilidad de disparar la cámara sin descanso y que la mayor parte de ellas son buenas. El problema es escoger cual mostrar en mi galería, pues siempre he tenido la intención de hacerla lo más variada posible.
La opinión. siempre es personal y existe la posibilidad de lo que a mí me gusta, para otro sea una fotografía vulgar.
La edición es ligeramente diferente a mis últimas imágenes. He intentado que sea visualmente bella aunque ya lo es por sí misma.
Por cierto, en la terraza con flores rojas que se ve a la izquierda de la imagen, comimos mi esposa y un servidor. Comimos muy bien, pero las facturas suizas, son terroríficas.
Agradecido de antemano por vuestras visitas y comentarios.
The Brown Booby (Sula leucogaster) is a visually arresting seabird I encountered during an early morning expedition by fishing boat to Isla Terrón de Azúcar, a remote rock island in the open Caribbean waters off the coast of Capurganá and Acandí, in Chocó, Colombia. Battling the ocean’s rhythm, I stabilized myself at the base of the cliffs as the boat rocked through intense sunlight reflecting off the water’s surface. This bird perched calmly on the rugged rock, allowing a moment of stillness amidst the motion for a shot.
To capture this image, I used my Canon R5 paired with an 800mm f/11 lens and a 1.4x extender, giving me an effective focal length of 1120mm. I selected 1/750 second to compensate for the instability of the boat, while shooting at f/16 and ISO 800 to maintain detail and depth under the bright tropical sun. The result is a high-resolution portrait that captures the contrast of the bird’s rich brown plumage against the textured cliff and the soft gradient of ocean and sky beyond. Technical choices aside, this was a rewarding challenge—one that reminds me of the delicate balance between preparation, persistence, and nature’s fleeting stillness.
