A silver lining to this pandemic was that we had loads of time to be out with our trailer this summer. I have a lot of unprocessed images! So please forgive my many upcoming images from the archives :)

"Within a realm of kinship fair,
Two sisters dwelled, their hearts entwined by blood,
Yet jealousy's venom did their souls ensnare,
And tore asunder love's delicate flood..."

Newberry Volcano is a large active shield-shaped stratovolcano located about 20 miles (32 km) south of Bend, Oregon, United States, 35 miles (56 km) east of the major crest of the Cascade Range, within the Newberry National Volcanic Monument. Its highest point is Paulina Peak. The largest volcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc, Newberry has an area of 1,200 square miles (3,100 km2) when its lava flows are taken into account. From north to south, the volcano has a length of 75 miles (121 km), with a width of 27 miles (43 km) and a total volume of approximately 120 cubic miles (500 km3). It was named for the geologist and surgeon John Strong Newberry, who explored central Oregon for the Pacific Railroad Surveys in 1855. The surrounding area has been inhabited by Native American populations for more than 10,000 years.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I will meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about
language, ideas, even the phrase 'each other'
doesn't make any sense.
- Rumi, "The Great Wagon"
And for those inclined :-)

Hiking within Skaftafell mountain range in South Iceland is a wonderful experience and one even gets closer looks to its mighty snow-covered glacier without doing a proper glacier walk which I feared would be very demanding, especially with all the photographic gear. But just looking at these places instills awe in the might of nature. This was shot in Spring with the helping of a lovely bit of Spring sunshine which brings out the textures.
Happy Textural Tuesday!
The decoration within the palaces comes from the last great period of Andalusian art in Granada. Columns and muqarnas appear in several chambers, and the interiors of numerous palaces are decorated with arabesques and calligraphy. The arabesques of the interior are ascribed to, among other sultans, Yusuf I, Mohammed V, and Ismail I, Sultan of Granada.

After subjecting the image to some basic twiddlation, I added a bit of tonal contrast in Color Efex Pro, and then I blended a white vignette into the mix.
At Michigan's Kensington Metropark, there's a boardwalk that's within long-lens range of the rookery where many Great Blue Herons and other water birds build their nests. During early Spring, when nest building is underway, its not uncommon to see a large number of photographers on the boardwalk. Most, if not all, I suspect, are in a quest for that one perfect, immaculate Great Blue Heron photograph...
Well, this one isn't it. But I decided to have some fun with the processing anyway. This heron was carrying a sprig of construction material up to its nest when the photo was taken. But the sky didn't really look like this... :-)
Shadows within shadows, quiet within quiet. An atmospheric time this foggy morning is. The ways of light and sound go in a strange ways, they spread differently. The path goes differently. Was I here before? Am I still here?
Slowly creeping
deeper within,
deeper and
deeper,
only to find
something else creeping.
An absence of color.
A longing of light.
Buried within
the creeping night.
This is a composite captured from a combination of fern exposures. Continuing the abstraction of nature.

The moon lives in the lining of your skin.”

WICKED GAME by CHRIS ISAAK
FIREWORKS IN MY MIND
I feel that I could lose myself
within the warm fold of your arms
the intensity you feel for me
ignites fireworks in my mind
within the recess of my heart
where past love left a void
there's a burning river running through
lighting fireworks in my mind
it's scorching everything I touch
and coursing through my veins
I close my eyes and try to breathe
but still see fireworks in my mind
I feel myself falling deep
in the garden of my dreams
this burning love; intense white heat
creates fireworks in my mind
I walk along my empty beach
and try to stem the flow
I don't want to feel this way
with fireworks in my mind
it feels too much; explosive love
it consumes me with it's madness
somehow you got beneath my skin
caused fireworks in my mind
I'm weakening now as you grow close
but I'm less when you're not here
the coldness that ached and broke my bones
is gone with fireworks in my mind
I need to choose; to do things right
but it's harder when you're here
you took my heart and made it yours
lit fireworks in my mind
If I could choose and have it all
I'd tell you not to go
don't make me choose between the moon and you
with fireworks in my mind

Rainbow lorikeets are true parrots, within the Psittacoidea superfamily in the order Psittaciformes. The rainbow lorikeet or lorikeet (common name) is a species of parrot found in Australia. It is common along the eastern seaboard, from northern Queensland to South Australia. Its habitat is rainforest, coastal bush and woodland areas. They are true parrots of medium-size, with the length ranging from 25 to 30 cm, including the tail. The weight varies from 75 to 157 g. The plumage of the nominate race, as with all subspecies, is very bright. The head is deep blue with a greenish-yellow nuchal collar, and the rest of the upper parts (wings, back and tail) are green. The chest is orange/yellow. The belly is deep blue, and the thighs and rump are green. In flight a yellow wing-bar contrasts clearly with the red underwing coverts.
Gordonia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Theaceae, related to Franklinia, Camellia and Stewartia. Of the roughly 40 species, all but two are native to southeast Asia in southern China, Taiwan and Indochina. They are evergreen trees, growing to 10–20 m tall. The bark is thick and deeply fissured. The leaves are alternately arranged, simple, serrated, thick, leathery, glossy, and 6–18 cm long. The flowers are large and conspicuous, 4–15 cm diameter, with 5 (occasionally 6-8) white petals; flowering is in late winter or early spring. The species are adapted to acidic soils, and do not grow well on chalk or other calcium-rich soils. They also have a high rainfall requirement and will not tolerate drought. 2327

This cormorant caught 5 fishcats within few minutes.
He was really impressive.
I did the photo under trees at sunset so it was really hard to see what hapened in real life. Photos show it much better.
For the fun, few people stopped me to watch the photos on my camera and they discovered that the cormorant had a catfish in the beak, in real life it was too dark and the bird was too far to see anything.

waits a fragile treasure.
It may last a lifetime if found,
but is gone forever if not.
