Someone, Somewhere is Thinking of You

There is a woman in my building currently going through Chemotherapy & she will start radiotherapy soon. She is in her early 70's, she has no children so I often check up on her, I've driven her to the hospital, offered to do her groceries for her. I sometimes leave little gifts at her door to let her know she is not alone. She appreciates the little gestures, says they mean a lot to her. She feels like someone is thinking of her. 

A few days ago, it was her turn to leave something at my door. A little floral plant. I don't even know what it is but the colors are beautiful and her gesture really touched me so I thought I would share with everyone because I know a few people here who could use a reminder :   *Someone, Somewhere is Thinking of You*

Little girls, and boys come out to play
Bring your dandelions to blow away
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion, blow away dandelion

Morning all!  This is a scan from a photo taken back around 1990 at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio.  This is a Constellation type aircraft with a radar mount on top.  I always thought the styling of these was rather cool with that triple tail and all.  Hope you enjoy it and have a great day.

Pic 4 Today: Fallen Glory
#treetuesday  +Tree Tuesday  #hdrphotography   #hdr  
#landscapephotography  +Landscape Photography 
I still have a lot of images from my trip to Arcata California and the Godwit Days Spring Migration Festival that I could share. This is one of my deep HDR experiments at Founder’s Grove in Humboldt Redwoods State Park. I like the way the Richardson’s Geraniums and a variety of ferns are growing on this fallen Redwood trunk. My guess, given the legendary durability of Redwood, is that this trunk has been down for well over 1000 years, to reach the stage of decomposition where it now supports it’s own micro-habitat. And I suspect it will be another 1000 years (or more) before all trace of the tree is gone. That is a long time!

It takes at least a 3 exposure HDR, with the highlight (dark) shot at least at -3EV, and the exposures wellseparated, ... more »

(¸.•´ (¸.•` ¤ A long time ago, when gods lived on earth as people, the dark spirits (Aña) abused the early Guarani people, killing the men and stealing their women.

In a small village lived a beautiful young woman named Araverá "Sparkle in the sky", the daughter of the grand chief Ururutï "White Condor". She recently married the hummingbird god, Colibrí, (Chinu tumpa), and hoped to soon have a son, who would grow up to be the best Shaman (Paye) of the area, capable of destroying all of the evil spirits.

The Añas got wind of her plans and schemed to kill her, without any consideration for Araverá. They mounted their fire-breathing winged horses and pointed them to her small town; but Araverá, saw what danger she was in and escaped, flying to the ultimate ends of the universe in her tiny flying chair thather husband Colibrí gave her.... more »
