48/52 Wind
Me: Oh please, it's the photo challenge, it's about you this week.
Wind: I'm sorry. I've been blowing all this snow to you the last two days, I need to re-hale a little.
Me: Just a little, maybe?
Wind: Hey look what's that?

An upright shot of a tree with snow on its branches. A large cloud of powdery snow is falling straight down from the tree to a small stream that meanders between two fields towards the camera. The surrounding area is covered in snow, the sun is shining on the snow from the right, but cannot be seen. In the background are some houses with quite a lot of snow on their roofs.

I'm not a film photography purist, I do use my digital camera for things like: event photography and bird photography. Nobody has the time or money to have thousands of shots of those things on film.

It helps, also, to have a digital camera you don't hate. Personally I never loved my Canon DSLRs in the past; but really enjoy my Nikons.

Here's a photo of a banana slug from Pacifica.

I always have a small film camera for a 'B roll', tho.

Looking back on previous trips and came across this pic from a trip to Switzerland in the summer of 2016.

My work team won a Toblerone bar that was almost as big as me! 😄

"free" time: when we're away from the workplace, with friends, and doing something adventurous and fun and exciting -- this is a memorable, golden time that warms our heart as it creates memories we are determined to repeat.

Temperatures were thinking about soaring to 76F (24C), so I decided it was time to go high! I took to climbing Wheeler Peak, the 2nd highest peak in Nevada. (Highest completely in Nevada.) The blog post is here: https://valhikes.blogspot.com/2023/10/wheeler-peak.html

#hiking #dayhike #Nevada #GreatBasinNationalPark #nature #landscape #travel #hike #outside #mountains #peakbagging #peakbagger

Trail to Wheeler Peak.

A dirt trail makes its way along a rocky slope rising to the right with a few trees. Beyond, the edge of the glacial valley curves around, becoming sharp peaks dropping quickly to the wide, tree covered valley floor. The right peak, a bit larger and less sharp than the others, is the goal, Wheeler Peak.
Ridge line south of Wheeler Peak.

Peaks winding southward between flat, brown, valleys.
Reference mark 5 at the top of Wheeler Peak.

A disk of brass set into a rock and covered in writing with an arrow in the middle. It is not in good shape and has a piece missing by the arrow head. A little bit of a shoe can be seen at the lower left.
Trail back down from Wheeler Peak.

A line of rocks is seen among snow on a rocky slope that drops to the right. Below is a wider ridge winding along to the north. In the distance is a flat valley full of windmills and another line of mountains.

I send thanks to the buyer from Utah who purchased a tapestry art print of

Mt Nebo Range -- https://2-steve-henderson.pixels.com/featured/mt-nebo-range-steve-henderson.html?product=tapestry

May the artwork take you to a place of serenity brushed by wildness, where the silence is majestic and the air is crisp and clean.

Walking along the beach: it's a timeless opportunity to let your mind wander along with your feet. Sometimes I'll look down, seeking coastal treasures in the sand, but for the most part I enjoy looking out into the great expanse of the sea.

Water water, everywhere on the earth. It's so "common" that we take it for granted, but water is precious, so very necessary for life, and extraordinarily beautiful -- I love the way the sunlight dances across the surface of this clean, clear mountain like.

The stream flows gently, quietly, peacefully down through the meadow. It is slow not because it tortuously winds through its landscape, but because it simply doesn't choose to hurry. There's simply too much to see, and that takes time.

Did you know that #Impressionist #painters were initially thought to be colour-blind?

The Impressionists painted #outside & tried to capture #light. They used short strokes & unblended paints.

#Doctors speculated that the #artists were visually impaired. Everything was hazy & exaggerated.

"Violettomania", the abuse of violets, was the most telling symptom.

“I have finally discovered the true color of the atmosphere, it’s violet. Fresh air is violet.” -Claude Monet

#art #history #arthistory

This is a painting called " Impression, soleil levant" by Claude Monet.

It shows a hazy sky in hues of blue and violet, with some orange reflecting the setting sun in the middle.

The background indicates boats, probably for fishing, and one better-accentuated fisherman in the foreground.

It's a closeup of the first flower of the buddleia plant that's growing in the garden. The flowers are still in bud; they're tiny little pink stalks all in a line along the end of the soft 'branches', but one or two of them are starting to really open up. The colour of the flowers is a deep pink... but from memory, when they open up, it's more purple. In the background you can see the nasturtiums I'm using as a living mulch.

Sometimes I'll sit by a waterfall and just watch the water cascade down, minute after minute, in what seems to be an endless flow. How, I marvel, can rivers flow, and flow, and flow, and not run out? Water is one of the world's greatest treasures.

A short trip to the lakeside today on a quite mild autumn day. A light breeze puts this lovely, permanently changing texture on the surface of the lake. I could spend hours just watching :-)

View of a lake. There is no wind, the water surface ripples slightly. In the foreground there is some grass. In the middle of the picture there is a lantern, which divides the picture into two parts. To the left of it, two white buoys float on the water. To the right of the lantern there is a brown park bench where a couple is sitting and looking at the lake. To their right in the background we see a sailboat with sails set. It is reflected on the water. Further in the blurred background we can see the autumn forest with muted colors on a gently rising hill with a church on it.

Three seasons celebrate their moment on an early spring day: autumn, with its determined blazing red bush that has hung on for months. Winter, with its stubborn snow. And spring, with its warm sun, busily getting rid of that snow.

On a cool day at the Oregon Coast, USA, I picked my way through the rocky landscape and simply enjoyed being surrounded by sea and cliffs, mist and the sound of the surf. It was a rather excellent place to be.

Autumn's colors are bold, outrageous, almost brash -- no other season celebrates orange and red, rust and gold as much as fall. It is a fitting end to, a rounding out of, the year. Yes, it's an ending, but such a happy one.

A footpath through a fallowed field is cutoff by a treeline that licks the overcast sky in a fever of autumn color

It's in the mid 50's (°F) and it has sprinkled on and off all day.  The wind isn't annoying, rather it's the kind that leans on the tree tops and bothers little on the ground

My workplace has this virtual race happening and I am feeling a tad competitive. So, I headed down to the Subang Ria park to walk around with my Nordic sticks.

I am really glad this park exists. Because it is essentially private land, the developer who owns it had always wanted to demolish the park and build a fancy luxury condo around it. But the Subang Jaya community has fought hard to keep it open to the public.

Lately, the park which was really run down during the pandemic, had a face lift. The park now even has a community hall, gazebos and exercise machines and a playground.

Me with my Nordic poles. These ain’t cheap – about RM600!

I took up Nordic Walking when I had back problems, as it helps you walk without much pain. Now that I am recovered, I still do it as its supposed to burn more calories and help you walk further.

Anyway I am always the only one with sticks around so I don’t know what people must think about me.

You don't walk a #Cat. You wait for a cat to walk you 😂.
New routine I am doing - at 630am, #Apricat and I will spend 30 minutes walking the apartment gardens. Most of the time we just stare at the view from the top of the hill. Then, it is back to the apartment for breakfast, and I leave for my morning walk at 730am. I am a morning lark & I find myself happy that I breathed in the morning air so early. Maybe I will enjoy this. 🙂

Out for a walk. Now sitting at the stairs area of an office building with a cup of chilled Americano. I am thinking this is exactly how I want my life to be. To me, success is being able to live the life you want and I consider myself successful. No debt, a simple life, with a very naughty cat to take care of, and vegetables growing at my balcony.
And as I was typing this bird shit literally landed on my head.
I hear that's good luck 😂

Why have we basically made it #illegal to be a kid in #public?

#Kids cannot be outside without their parents constantly watching them, they cannot play on the #street (because we made them too dangerous) or even sidewalks in some #cities, and even loitering (existing in public) is illegal in many places. We've made kid-friendly #transportation such as bicycles, skateboards, and rollerblades illegal in many places. It's no wonder why kids are rarely found #outside anymore.

There's still scattered burn and surreal twice burned areas on the third day backpacking, but there's also unburned and healthy after the burn areas. My plans had to morph a little and I got in tagging a peak right at the end!

Twice burned forest. Old trunks jut upward, getting narrower quickly. Around them, there are only a few fallen pieces of trunk, far fewer than would be expected. The ground is sandy with a thin green layer.
Doe Lake, on the way down to it. A lake sits, grabbed by rocks on one side as if by a giant hand. Scattered trees grow on the rocks to the right with thicker trees on the peak directly ahead and down the slope below.
California pitcher plants. Carnivorous.

Green leaves rise in a shape like a cobra rising its head. Below where the nose would be is a big green mustache.
