This shot was captured the same day as the previous upload (the Trillium closeup). Perhaps it will help put that flower, which was among those shown in the clump to the right of the road, into context for you.
Thanks to all who visit, fave, comment, and extend invitations. Your support is much appreciated. I will be sure to visit your work, too
It was pouring down relentless sheets of rain and a small group of band-tails landed in the buckeye. As the rain got even harder several of these native birds began to raise and open their wings fully to take in the opportunity for a complete bath....it was a truly remarkable sight to see this behavior in a complete downpour up in the trees on the greyest of winter days
many thanks for stopping by to visit and share....risa

Was -10 last week and looking like another big snow storm on its way...dreaming of warmer days ahead.
Two turtles enjoying the day on the lake.
I think these are painted turtles; if I'm wrong, please correct me.

Thanks for your visit and comments, much appreciated!🙋♀️
This blue hour photograph was taken from the Heritage Bridge of Lower Seletar Reservoir, looking West. The candle-stick shaped lights in the foreground illuminated the activity area, while other lights illuminated the paved paths along the banks of the Reservoir. It was a calm morning, which resulted in attractive reflections of the clouds and parts of the Reservoir.
I was so pleased to see these birds during a recent photo shoot in Spain. I've yet to see one over here in the UK, so it was great to finally have the opportunity to photograph them. Such charismatic & photogenic little birds.

I was asked to participate in the "Hope For Emilia" project and it was a pleasure to help. This is my contribution. More information about the project you can find here:
I was looking through some old images and this one caught my eye. I love the mysteries of Maine's landscape and felt compelled to post this one:)
He was born 30 December 1869 at Swanmore, county of Hampshire, England.
In 1876 he emigrated to Canada with his family and settled on a farm near the hamlet of Egypt, south of Sibbald Point on Lake Simcoe.
Leacock was educated at Upper Canada College, Toronto. He completed a degree in modern languages at the University of Toronto in 1891.
Inspired by Thorstein Veblen’s The Theory of the Leisure Class, he enrolled at the University of Chicago, receiving a Ph.D. in political economy and political science under Veblen in 1903.
The palace in Jankowice was built at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and its reconstruction took place in 1803 on the order of Wawrzyniec Engestrӧm (a Swedish envoy alongside King Stanisław August Poniatowski), who settled in Wielkopolska. The palace was built in the style of romanticism. It is surrounded by a park with an area of 18.6 ha. There is a pond with 4 islands and a rich tree stand with 50 species (limes, plane trees, chestnuts, oaks and others).
The palace and park complex is owned by the Tarnowo Podgórne commune, which carried out a thorough renovation and revitalization of the park in 2018.

Pałac w Jankowicach zbudowany został na przełomie XVIII i XIX wieku, a jego przebudowa nastąpiła w roku 1803 roku na polecenie Wawrzyńca Engestrӧma (posła szwedzkiego przy królu Stanisławie Auguście Poniatowskim), który osiadł w Wielkopolsce. Pałac zbudowano w stylu klasycyzmu romantycznego. Otoczony jest parkiem o powierzchni 18,6 ha. Znajduje się w nim staw z 4 wyspami, oraz bogaty drzewostan liczący 50 gatunków (lipy, platany, kasztanowce, dęby i inne).
Zespół pałacowo-parkowy jest własnością gminy Tarnowo Podgórne, która przeprowadziła gruntowny remont i rewitalizację parku w 2018 roku.
It was a mad dash to try and get to Sandcut Beach to see if I would bag the sunset shot I was looking for. I think this shot speaks for itself. What gorgeousnesss!!! Check out the Video link below!!
Foto wurde durch meine Frau aufgenommen, mit ihrer Ausrüstung -Canon 100-400 L IS II USM, Canon EOS80D - Im Eberswalder Zoo ist es immer eine Herausforderug gute Fotos zu machen, Viele hohe Bäume erschweren das Fotografieren, aber bei hohen Temeraturen ist es dort auszuhalten
Aspyn was having a lovely time, yesterday. She had the whole garden to herself. I think the others were either inside or sunning themselves in the yard at the front of the house.
Here, she was having a wee rest, having scampered all over the (long!) grass.
It was a beautiful day, yesterday. (I’m trying to be very positive in this time of such tragedy and pain.)
Happy Easter!

Yeah, and a Happy Fucking Valentine's Day to you, too.
I want you to hold out the palm of your hand
Why don't we leave it at that?
It was definitely worth getting up for sunrise that morning. Thankfully I didn’t need to climb the 199 steps for this capture, we were staying at the YHA next to Whitby Abbey 😂 Not a chance in hell of managing those steps before lunch time!
Heading back to Whitby this weekend for a much needed week away. Managed to find a late booking still available, thankfully.
This will be my last post until we return, hopefully with some half decent images and in a better place, mentally. Thank you all for your support during a very difficult few months.
Happy Easter, dear friends. 🐑🐰❤️
I was looking over my photos to see which one I could post, and looking at this one just kind of relaxed me while I was looking at it. So, I dusted it off and cleaned it up and posted it.
Have a great Sunday
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.”

This photo was taken 23 minutes later at the same observation lounge of Tochou (都庁) as the previous photo.
The road marked by taller buildings toward Fujisan is National Route 20, which is also called Koushuu Kaidou (甲州街道) as the trunk road leads to Yamanashi prefecture (山梨県), and Koushuu is its old name.
Shinjuku was originally developed as a post town on Koushuu Kaidou in the Edo era. Shinjuku (新宿) means “new post town.”
This was also the venue where Miles Davis played “Jean-Pierre” in 1981, which is included in his live recording album “We Want Miles” released in 1982. It is credited as Shinjuku Nishiguchi Hiroba, which was a vacant lot waiting for the construction of this skyscraper. .
This guy was standing on the bike path I was riding my bike on trying to keep warm like I was, a cool ride for sure. It was warmer here in Canada a month ago than it was today, so much for spring.
So while I was cleaning up after our Easter ham dinner I dumped the leftover juice out by our rock wall. It seemed we forgot to invite our new neighborhood fox to dinner who couldn't resist the heavenly ham aroma and came by to investigate. I got my camera and when we piled out the front door she moved away but the smell was overwhelming and she came back for a few shots. She licked the rock a bit and then off she went, checking out the neighbors chicken coop as she headed to the woods. This is why it's best to stay in the coop area and not venture out into the unprotected yard if you happen to be a chicken. Still on the lookout for the kits.
Paseo de Martí a.k.a. Paseo del Prado is a European-style boulevard that separates Centro Habana from La Habana Vieja. The original idea was to create a street as splendid as any found in Paris or Barcelona. After the revolution Paseo de Martí and many of its buildings deteriorated or even collapsed. However, some sections of the street have been renovated.
After I saw the two steering wheel cart with the family and dog, there appeared this male green heron in the nearby pond....my first seen in Minnesota.
I was able to edit enough to bring out the bird's colors as the sun was out and on the wrong side of this beautiful heron.
Enjoy the weekend Flickr friends, thanks for your visit....Pat...xo
This photo was from last year, when Clear Lake Goddess gifted me often with morning skies filled with spectacular and explosive cloud formations, so much that I was hoping to get a break so that I could sleep in.
This year, she seems to be teaching me a lesson by putting out hazy colorless sunrises every morning!
Maybe the spell will be broken tomorrow, or maybe not!
Thank you for viewing, my apology for not paying a visit to your stream often enough lately (I've been busy)!

Just trust that everything is unfolding the
way it is supposed to. Don't resist.
Surrender to what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be. Great things are waiting for you around the corner.

There was an art festival going on while I was at the coast. I had forgotten that Rockport was an art community. After taking this pic I went and walked around the in side and was really impressed by the work of so many artist. However, most of it was paintings. I hate the fact that people to recognize photography as art. Sure there was some photography work but selling for so much less than the paintings.
Other than that..;) The festival was fun. There was live music, lots of different foods and of course, the rides. I didn't go on the rides..:)
