They did not land as strangers. They were returning to a continent that had already been stolen from them. The streets were named for Clay and Ashmun. The flag had stripes and a single white star. The capital was called Monrovia. This was Liberia—built from memory, stitched in exile. A mirror held to the American republic.

This is Mrs. Arcus ca 1972 using my first "good" camera, a Pentax Spotmatic II. (I still have it.).

This is professional scan of a slide, perhaps from Extachrome. 50 mm kit lens. No idea of the camera settings.

Today is our 55th wedding anniversary.

Svalbarðseyri Lighthouse (Svalbarðseyrarviti) in North Iceland might not be one of the most majestic lighthouses in Iceland but it is certainly one of the cutest that I've been to.

A moody photo of a fairly short, orange lighthouse with a red top, a ladder on the right hand side that leads to the top, and a picnic bench on the left hand side. A fjord and foggy mountains are in the background.

Just sharing this reminder of a really glorious day in the #mountains .
I spent quite a bit of time to find exactly THIS spot so that fore and midground blended so well together.

And currently I'm having this as a background image in teams. Sometimes I wonder if this might look unprofessional - and then I think "maybe I don't care".

#photography #hiking #landscape #bavaria #alps #outdoors

A stunning landscape featuring a serene lake surrounded by majestic mountains and vibrant yellow flowers. The scene is set under a clear blue sky with fluffy white clouds adding to the picturesque view. The foreground is dominated by black trees and plants, creating a contrast with the bright yellow flowers. The image captures the essence of a peaceful wilderness, with lush green grass leading up to the tranquil lake. The overall color palette is accentuated by a warm golden hue, giving a feeling of a sunny summer day in nature.

#Art #ThickTrunkTuesday #Photography

A unique and artistic wooden sculpture situated in a forest setting. The sculpture, crafted from natural wood, depicts two abstract figures embracing against a live tree. Both figures have a rustic, weathered appearance, blending in with their surroundings. In the background, the forest continues, with numerous tall trees creating a dense, natural backdrop.

The wooden sculptures are part of the Skulpturenpfad by Thomas Rees near Freiburg.

Dragon (WaldMenschen VI)

#Art #Nature #Photography

A large, wooden dragon sculpture situated in a vibrant, sun-dappled forest. The sculpture, crafted from various pieces of natural wood and logs, including a large tree trunk for its body, dominates the lower half of the frame. Its head, sculpted with an open mouth and visible teeth, is particularly detailed and faces towards the right. Pieces of wood are used to suggest horns or spikes on its head and back. The forest itself is lush and green, with tall trees, mostly deciduous, forming a dense canopy that allows patches of sunlight to filter through and illuminate the scene, creating a sense of depth and ethereal light.

The wooden sculptures are part of the Skulpturenpfad by Thomas Rees near Freiburg.

May 26, 1637, the Puritans and their allies surround the Pequot Indian stronghold called Mystic Fort near what is now Stonington, Connecticut. They set it ablaze, then shoot those who flee the flames. By dawn, over 400 are dead—mostly women and children.

And yet, we still call Puritans the “peaceful” settlers.

Perched on a spire at the front of Chepstow Methodist Church sits a seagull. You perhaps wouldn't notice her unless she was pointed out to you. I can't guarantee she'll be there tomorrow, but, you never know.
