Una página con 6 viñetas, en la primera se ve una infusión en un baso cuadrado, burbujeante, en la segunda una mano alienígena de tres dedos vuelca un poco de pienso en un bol de comida para gatos, en la tercera la misma mano acaricia a dos gatos que duermen acurrucados. En la cuerta una chica pasa corriendo por una calle y llama la atención del alienígena en primer plano, en la siguiente la chica frena al escuchar su noombre, en la última vemos a la chica de espaldas en primer plano mirando hacia una esquina donde dos alienígenas toman el té burbujeante, rodeados por una especie de halo, la saludan alegremente. Pueden verse los gatos durmiendo a los pies de estos y el bol con el pienso que tiene escrito "Kropotkin"

May the image take you to a place of silence and contemplation, where beauty is timeless and eternal.

A minty, blurry background contrasts and highlights the delicate buds of an unidentified grass/flower. Three balls of spiky, hairy fluff occupy the bottom and left of the shot. Small crimped buds with white leaves imprisoning a mustard centre splatter the rest of the scene. It’s a bit like a constellation of stars. A bit.

Now westlin winds, and slaught’ring guns
Bring Autumn’s pleasant weather;
And the moorcock springs, on whirring wings,
Amang the blooming heather…

SONG
composed in August

Tune, I had a horse, I had nae mair

Now westlin winds and slaught'ring guns
Bring Autumn's pleasant weather;

ALT

And the moorcock springs on whirring wings
Amang the blooming heather:
Now waving grain, wide o'er the plain,
Delights the weary Farmer;
And the moon shines bright, when I rove at night,
To muse upon my Charmer.

The Partridge loves the fruitful fells,
The Plover loves the mountains;
The Woodcock haunts the lonely dells,
The soaring Hern the fountains:
Thro' lofty groves the Cushat roves,
The path of man to shun it;
The hazel bush o'erhangs the Thrush,
The spreading thorn the Linnet.

Thus ev'ry kind their pleasure find,
The savage and the tender;
Some social join, and leagues combine,
Some solitary wander:

ALT

Avaunt, away! the cruel sway!
Tyrannic man's dominion;
The Sportsman's joy, the murd'ring cry,
The flutt'ring, gory pinion!

But PEGGY dear, the ev'ning's clear,
Thick flies the skimming Swallow,
The sky is blue, the fields in view,
All fading-green and yellow:
Come let us stray our gladsome way,
And view the charms of Nature;
The rustling corn, the fruited thorn,
And ilka happy creature.

We'll gently walk, and sweetly talk,
Till the silent moon shine clearly;
I'll grasp thy waist, and fondly prest,
Swear how I love thee dearly:
Not vernal show'rs to budding flow'rs,
Not Autumn to the Farmer,
So dear can be, as thou to me,
My fair, my lovely Charmer!

Love Spring Floral Burst by Lisa S. Baker

Vibrant abstract floral composition bursting with oversized blooms in magenta, hot pink, orange, blush, gold, and purple with navy and olive green botanical accents against a rich teal blue background, centered by a bold white text block featuring the word "love" in classic navy serif type. Loose watercolor washes and expressive brushwork give this piece a joyful, garden-fresh energy.

The End of March

#MonochromeMarch
* Zine permission granted

#Nature #Photography

This black-and-white photograph captures the skeletal remains of a decaying Hydrangea, highlighting the intricate beauty found in nature's decline.

The translucent, lace-like leaf has withered until only its delicate vascular network remains. The light passing through it emphasizes its fragile, crystalline structure.

Above the skeletal leaf, dark, dried seed pods hang from thin, wiry stems. These pods provide a heavy, textural contrast to the lightness of the leaf below.

Every ant is a queen in this parasitic species — and they reproduce by cloning themselves and hijacking other ant colonies

By Chris Simms

A rare Japanese ant is the only species known to lack female workers and males; all of its young develop into parasitic queens that try to take over other colonies.

A vibrant field of flowers during the golden hour.

On the left, a delicate dandelion "clock" stands tall. It is backlit by the sun, causing the fine white filaments to glow with a translucent, ethereal light.

To the right of the dandelion, several slender tulips rise from the grass. They feature pointed petals with a bold dual-tone color scheme: a deep, ruby red on the outer edges and a bright, buttery yellow toward the center and tips.

Yosemite Falls in Black and White

Yosemite Valley and Yosemite Falls is viewed by more than 3 million people every year. Most visit the park during the spring, summer and fall, while relatively few visit during the winter.
It can be cold, snowy, rainy or warm and sunny all depending on what is blowing in off of the Pacific 4 to 8 hours earlier.

Yosemite Falls in Black and White

The photograph opens like a breath of cold mountain air—Yosemite Falls rising out of the valley in stark black‑and‑white drama, every detail sharpened by winter’s grip.
The upper fall dominates the frame, a white torrent dropping from a cleft in the granite as if poured from the sky itself. The water doesn’t look soft or misty—it looks heavy, almost metallic, a bright vertical ribbon against the dark, weather‑worn rock. You can almost hear it: a deep, continuous roar echoing through the cold morning air.
The storm that passed earlier has left the valley in a state of restless calm. Light breaks through in angled beams, catching the waterfall and the frozen spray clinging to the cliff. The shadows are deep and velvety, giving the granite walls a sense of mass and age—like ancient cathedral pillars carved by time.
A faint frozen beard of ice clings around the plunge pool and lower lip of the falls, its texture rough and crystalline. You can almost feel the bite of the cold—air so sharp it stings your nose, the kind that makes every sound ring clearer.
