The Byrds did a pretty good version too.
The Barrows at Thorswood are a powerful place to sit and reflect. Although some barrows have been completely destroyed by later quarrying a few are still intact. Sitting amongst the spring or summer flowers, you can feel yourself being dragged back through time. Can you imagine no motor traffic noise, no jet trails in the sky, no lights to blank out the stars. It must have been so quiet and dark.
My first photo here was just recently taken in the region of Costa Brava (wild coast) in the north of Catalonia/Spain.
While photographing a waterfall on the Grand River in Elora, Ontario, I noticed this Wild Teasel. The sun gleamed down on it causing it to glow.
I have to drive home on the back roads lately because the main road is under construction. You see some cool stuff driving on those dirt roads - this fellow flew right over my windshield and landed by the side of the road, and just started walking.
Just outside of the city of Tulsa is an area that has been set up for wild horses. Thousands of abandoned horses have been sent throughout the state of Oklahoma as a refuge for horses that don't have a home. The state has eight different locations of BLM land that has been set aside for these creatures to safely live out the rest of their lives. I think this is a pretty good program and I loved getting a chance to capture these majestic animals.
Through the branches of vivid green
A wild path, now is seen
Stretching as far as the eye can see
Kissed by the beauty of every tree
Off into the distance, where you will find
Nature of every single different kind
At the end of the path, that now is seen
Through the branches of wild green
BNSF gave the Los Angeles area a much needed reprieve from the usual GEVO parade with this wild consist on the H-BARLAC. Behind the lead unit is an assortment of engines including a Genset, three SD60Ms (including the only one ever to receive Heritage 1 paint), a former Frisco GP38-2, and a few widecabs including a warbonnet Dash 9. The bizarre consist is seen here crossing over the Los Angeles River as it swings off the BNSF main and onto the Los Angeles Junction Railway.

Took a trip over to the Atlantic Ocean side of Cape May to see how the gale force winds were affecting the ocean. Some pretty wild waves!
More of these wild flowers blowing in the wind as they don't last for long and & are rather cliche.

First of all, super sorry for the bad quality...I never run into this issue but for some reason I'm getting weird jagged lines...I suppose that's why people make prints :P
So I finally got to shoot this character that I've been dreaming of. I planned this one out a long time ago, as has been the trend on my stream lately. It was so much fun to create, which I think comes out in the behind the scenes video that I shot:

That says it all I think, so I'll keep this short :) Just wanted to say that I really appreciate that anyone takes the time to look at my pictures, it really encourages me.

The wild parrots flying free in Southern California today are descendants of wild-caught parrots that were imported into the United States before importation was banned and somehow either escaped or were released intentionally. These birds were already well versed in their survival skills and able to establish themselves in areas where exotic plant life is plentiful.
Rumor has it that of firefighters responding to a call in a pet shop and rather than see the birds perish, the firefighters set them free. Though Urband Legends have circulated for more than 30 years, there are some that believe the wild parrots may have come here on their own through normal exploration. Others believe they are all escaped pets.

Wild flowering Lupins ?
The story goes that many years ago an American Artist wanted "more colour" in her landscape paintings and so scattered thousands of Lupin seeds.
Birds and wildlife did the rest, and now, in springtime,the whole region is covered with a stunning blanket of these wildflowers.
Lake Tekapo is about two and a half to three hours drive south-west of Christchurch, New Zealand.
The township faces north across the remarkable turquoise coloured lake to the mountainous drama of the Southern Alps.
Lake Tekapo is given its intense milky-turquoise hue by fine rock-flour, dust ground by glacial movement and held in suspension by the lake's waters.
A short walk is to the famous Church of the Good Shepherd, where the altar window frames a perfect view of the Alps.

Last year in early May I was showing my nephew some sights around Dallas when I stumbled upon an impressive stand of Clasping Coneflowers on the Trinity riverbed with the the Dallas skyline in the background. I wanted to go back and look for more wildflowers this year and for two early weekend mornings I did just that with some friends.
I was truly amazed at the diversity of native wildflowers their beauty. I am not a botanist by any means but even I could identify several of them. Okay, I sort of lied. My first passion was Gardening with Native Plants and before the camera bug bit me, I knew more about plants than I know about photography now.
This time, I found large colonies of Clasping Coneflowers (Dracopis amplexicaulis), Mexican Hats or Prairie Coneflowers (Ratibida columnifera) in different colors, and blankets of Pink evening primrose or buttercups (Oenothera speciosa) other native wildflowers and grasses. The much anticipated colorful sunrise fell apart quickly and soon it started to rain. I had positioned myself to catch the first rays of sun to pierce the clouds and had a few good minutes to capture this image.
Wild eyes watching in he green
Looking at all that can be seen
Among the trees and the leaves
That blow gently in the breeze
As hot rays they fill the skies
Over the watching, wild green eyes
