When visiting Mono Lake in the Spring, layered clothing is the only way to go. I was having lunch at a local diner where patrons were dressed in everything from flip flops and shorts to parkas and boots, depending on what the weather was when they left their hotels that morning... and whether or not they came prepared. I soon discovered weather forecasts were near useless. A predicted snowfall could dump its load 10 miles away leaving you comfortable in a tank top, or it could catch you shivering in your sandals.
FYI - map insists on saying this photo was taken from Lee Vining Airport. It wasn't. It was taken from a gravel road close to the shores of Mono Lake looking east.
...it pours.
We´ve had plenty of rain recently.
Which is good.
But I think rain is needed elsewhere now, not here.
Thank you Mother Nature, but please focus elsewhere right now.

This big male Sandhill Crane wasn't actually attacking me for taking its picture, but it was after a crane that was walking beside me for protection from attacking Red-wing Blackbirds. But apparently it was enough of an intrusion into his space that he took off toward us to get us farther away from his territory. The wings are immense, and we were brushed by the wind as it flew only inches away.
with so much rain, these little puffs look like drowned cats now... and most have fallen off...
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

Have a wonderful weekend!
When I left on my day trip to Ya Ha Tinda, they sky was almost cloudless and I wondered if it was going to be worth going out. Then this guy showed up.
I think I stole that title from one of my contact's recent postings. If it's you, I apologize, and feel free to take the credit for it. I took a beautiful, deep blue sky here, and blackened it, to contrast the 'light' of the Lighthouse, with the dark, it was intended to disperse. This is the light at Port Burwell, again, and the recovered anchor is from the schooner Nimrod, sunk off Port Stanley, November 8, 1874. The crew survived.
When visiting Amsterdam in September 2017 we went to Van Gogh Museum and I purchased this little magnet as a souvenir.
Van Gogh's paintings of Sunflowers are among his most famous. He did them in Arles, in the south of France, in 1888 and 1889.
The sunflower paintings had a special significance for Van Gogh: they communicated ‘gratitude’, he wrote. He hung the first two in the room of his friend, the painter Paul Gauguin, who came to live with him for a while in the Yellow House. Gauguin was impressed by the sunflowers, which he thought were ‘completely Vincent’. Van Gogh had already painted a new version during his friend’s stay and Gauguin later asked for one as a gift, which Vincent was reluctant to give him. He later produced two loose copies, however, one of which is now in the Van Gogh Museum.
Lors de notre visite à Amsterdam en septembre 2017, nous sommes allés au musée Van Gogh et j'ai acheté ce petit aimant en souvenir.
Les peintures de Van Gogh de Tournesols sont parmi ses plus célèbres. Il les fit à Arles, dans le sud de la France, en 1888 et 1889.
Les peintures de tournesol avaient une signification particulière pour Van Gogh : elles communiquaient la « gratitude », écrit-il. Il a accroché les deux premiers dans la chambre de son ami, le peintre Paul Gauguin, qui est venu habiter quelque temps avec lui dans la Maison Jaune. Gauguin a été impressionné par les tournesols, qu'il pensait être « complètement Vincent ». Van Gogh avait déjà peint une nouvelle version lors du séjour de son ami et Gauguin en a demandé une plus tard en cadeau, que Vincent hésitait à lui offrir. Cependant, il a produit plus tard deux exemplaires volants, dont l'un est maintenant au musée Van Gogh.

Playing with texture and tones.
i love seeing how the mood changes from using different colours and tones.
When I finished painting, I brought her outside, blindfolded. When I removed it to show her my surprise, she left and I haven't seen her since.

My Yuki was waiting for her boat to go to the other side of Victoria Harbour. The wind was blowing from the east, while the sun was falling in the west. A beautiful day, a beautiful sunset, a beautiful city, it is just like an old fairy tale.

I don't like hostas that much. Well that isn't exactly true, I do like hostas in the right place, however, our tiny garden is not the right place for them. There is just far too much leaf for the payback in flower. Hostas really need to be in a big garden or a park where they can show off the true glory of those magnificent leaves. I would say this one tucked in amongst the cedar hedging is just the right size for here. I will be keeping an eye on it though to make sure it doesn't start showing off and getting too big.
