A picture a day

[koraks]

Neat composition. What is this structure ?

Thanks - it's a levee with a promenade.

Thanks - it's a levee with a promenade.

Somehow that line should be sung, accompanied by banjo

 

[Chuck1]

How about a waltz with some tuba

 

[koraks]

No Chevy in sight though.

two shots for the week,
one in the afternoon, shadows and windows lined up just right,

one in the early morning, it was cloudy but all was quiet and the grey heron was having breakfast,

I’m beginning to recognize individual styles here. That’s pretty cool. Just saw some images and knew exactly who had posted them without looking at the name….
That’s great.
It’s raining cats and dogs here in East Tennessee. But this am, on my walk was able to shoot a few images. Overcast. Color. D2H.
The camera stops time. And it forces me to slow down, to look more carefully. And to see the beauty, goodness, oneness and truth that everything possesses, in as much as I’m able.
This moment moved me tremendously, a bee dying upon a magnolia flower. A fitting place for such a noble and useful creature.
The poem is not my own, but AI….

​

White Magnolia​

Verse 1
I served the golden hive
Dancing every mile
Now I'm fading here

Chorus
On white petals soft
My wings are slowing down
This is where I go

Verse 2
Sweet magnolia blooms
I gave it all away
No more to give now

Chorus
On white petals soft
My wings are slowing down
This is where I go

Outro
I served the golden hive
White petals hold me close
I'm going home

I prefer something more like:
"There once was a print from @koraks ,
That revealed what happens when you omit borax,
From a developer potion,
Based on a notion,
That when you mix up your own you can relax".
No AI involved at all!

I like it too.
Nice!

Another attempt at haiga. Recent photo. No AI poem this time. This one is legit. Not great. It is what it is.
Kind regards everyone!

Woot, for how long have you had that one @mshchem ?

I think 4 years, lately if it's not cold and icy I ride it for everything. It's less stressful than driving a car. We have a wonderful trail system .

 

[koraks]

1k miles/year sounds like good going to me for sure!

two for the week, within my limited foraging ground,
afternoon shot, taken on my way home,

lunch walk

 

[IpseLux]

A few images just now. D2H, downloaded to my iPhone. Anderson County, Tennessee.
Hope everyone is well.

nice light and weather, seems like nice weekend outing,
Here in Boston, we had rain for a day then around 50 yesterday... :-(

Thank you J. It was a nice break from the rain. Seemed it rained for a week straight.
Boston must be a beautiful, grand ol’ American city, by US standards. Quite a history. I hear they have some memorable Tea Parties!
And a very interesting accent of sorts. Visited Nantucket for a friend’s wedding, and remember the airport being quite lovely.
Hope the weather holds, tomorrow I’ve planned a special treat for me, something I’ve never done, but have wanted to for decades: visit the Zoo with my camera.
It’s not quite, the safari experience, but close enough for me.
If anything turns out I might post it here.
Kind regards.

We have finally left un unbearable heat wave behind over here. Hope that was the last one of the season!

From a cool and light after-dinner walk:

 

[IpseLux]

Some snapshots just now, and a few of a train from the weekend.
Kind regards everyone!

Selection is a virtue.

Kind regards everyone!
