When in Whitby and find no one on the breakwater, might as well tuck into this iconic setting. I would have liked to brighten the railings a touch more, anyone know how to grab them easily, i tried colour and focus select in PS but not enough contrast to only pick up the railings.
when they're postage stamp-sized . . . but it's 66 blocks closer to being finished!
snapped this progress shot to get perspective on how the new blocks will blend into the quilt. better photos to follow . . . as soon as i sew the new strips of blocks on. somehow the muslin strips between the blocks are a wee bit too big, which means i have some ripping, trimming + re-sewing to do. i have no idea how i measured those wrong!
I dream of his eyes
his broken smile
his tender touch
for I can not feel what has been lost
nor can I move his mountains
or bring him home
so I dream of his eyes
his broken smile
and his tender touch.

On a bright and peaceful day, an unexpected moment unfolded—a silent staring contest between my dog and a wild deer. Both stood frozen, eyes locked, separated only by the invisible line between the familiar and the wild. This rare encounter captured a mix of instinct, curiosity, and calm tension.

When you think of Andalusia, Spain, Flamenco music and dancing are usually the first things to come to mind. For two weeks in April and May, Seville epitomizes that during the Feria de Abril.
Originally a 19th century cattle fair, these days, the festival is an excuse to party, drink, eat, sing and dance. The locals dress in period costume, ride horses through the cobbled streets, and every little outdoor café has it's own private flamenco guitar performer.
This shot was taken of a group of dancers in the Parque Maria Luisa not far from the fairgrounds. It's flamenco, but the locals will point out that it's a variation unique to Seville called Sevillanas and that it has slightly different timing and rhythm than what's typical in say, Granada, Cordoba or elsewhere in Andalusia.
The music of Spain has been a huge attraction for me and the main reason I keep going back. Andalusia is always my main destination, so it goes without saying that I've likely got a ton of flamenco dancer images. This one however, remains one of my favorites for its simplicity, color and feeling of movement.

A walk through a nature preserve and the discovery of a new trail...you have to love the wonders of taking the left fork when you've always traveled the right one. :-)
Feel free to take my seat here; my butt is unfortunately planted in yet another one between cars and airlines.
I would say I'll be by to say 'hello' here soon. But I won't make promises I can't keep.
It’s hard to explain but when I wear something that feels right it changes me completely. I become more confident in outwardly presenting myself as the true me. My femininity just envelops me and all I see is the woman that I have transformed into leaving no trace of my other life.
That to me is perfect and provides contentment, happiness, confidence and relaxation 😊❤️

When I stop at grocery store, spotted this woman with very bored and impatient look in front of the store.
When I heard that today's #6 was going to have some PV on the rear, I wanted to find a place to shoot that curved enough to show it. The wind was still blowing fairly hard when the train came, but the 10 minutes I stood on the bridge it was much stiffer and pushed the steam in the back almost straight left out of the stack. I had to back out a little bit from the zoom, but it still turned out ok.
& now i am officially 22 =P
in other words... i am getting old LOL !

How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that's so cold?
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry

The red strokes were added on impulse , just as a flair kinda thing. I don't know if it is a mistake, but i like the quirky element it puts forth :D I have an odd penchant for red and black. Anyway, this angel is my beautiful lil cousin

When darkness falls in the forest deep, night spirits cry out and the wood creatures seek to feed and feast. Then from the mist aberrations appear and prey on living things that exude fear. If to your eyes the haunting starts stand silent still and quiet your heart, for if they can’t sense the fear in you, the morning comes and your nightmare is through…

When I came home from my mini trip my giant sunflower bloomed ... I love these plants... the flower faces EAST so when I look out my kitchen window I can only see the back of it... so yesterday I went out with my camera ready to shoot...."EXPLORE"
Spotted this delightful Highland Coo whilst driving around the Strathaird Peninsula on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. He seemed to have an itch, and what great scratching implements he had! What I love about this breed is how docile they are. I grew up around cattle, so know their body language, and this guy was very friendly and was quite happy for me to walk to up him and give him a rub/scratch.
Highland cattle (Scottish Gaelic: Bò Ghàidhealach; Scots: Heilan coo) are a Scottish cattle breed. They have long horns and long wavy coats that are coloured black, brindle, red, yellow, white, silver (looks white but with a black nose) or dun, and they are raised primarily for their meat. They originated in the Highlands and Hebrides Islands of Scotland and were first mentioned in the 6th century AD. The first herd book described two distinct types of Highland cattle but, due to crossbreeding between the two, only one type now exists and is registered. They have since been exported worldwide.
They are a hardy breed, having been bred to withstand the conditions in the Scottish Highlands. Their long hair gives the breed its ability to overwinter. Bulls can weigh up to 800 kilograms (1,800 pounds) and cows up to 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds). Their milk generally has a very high butterfat content, and their meat, regarded as of the highest quality, is gaining mainstream acceptance as it is lower in cholesterol than other varieties of beef.

When darkness falls over the city, reality dies.
Ghosts of metal haunt the streets
Watching with big round eyes.
Run away from the dark and go home, in the comfort of light...
Quand l'obscurité noie la ville, la réalité expire.
Les fantômes de métal envahissent les rues
Et vous fixent de leurs grands yeux de vampires.
Fuyez la nuit et ses terreurs.
Rentrez chez vous retrouver un peu de lumière.

Another shot from inside the house when it is dark. This is a small challenge to myself, seeing if I can make decent images out of ordinary things.
I first shot this with the small Leica, however, during processing I discovered the beautiful blue colour the lack of light created. Unfortunately, there was a bit of noise. I therefore took a re-shoot with "the big gun", (D800E). This has a decent long exposure noise reduction system.
Thanks for stopping by.
