Spirituality, the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things.
time to get some flies wet...
Beautiful photo.
I second that emotion.

It's that time again.
Crossed off a bucket list photo item last weekend...
I'll be gone today at noon through the Holiday. Be nice to each other and have a good Memorial Day weekend next weekend. I'll check in with you all when I get back.
Great photos
indigo and neon green... nice.
Awesome.
Wow. Wonderful "Once in a Lifetime" photos.
Our whistling ducks are back. I hope they have some chicks this year when they are born and for some time after they are black and while polka dot.
One of our heron's getting in it's yoga moves.
Photo by our pro photographer at stone creek.
Usually it's the eagles sitting on top of the homes but today this Heron decided that
the rooftop was its.
Who would ever want to eat a beautiful duck with the talent of being able to whistle like that one...
this video turned up in my youtube feed, probably because I spend so much time here teasing my favorite citizen of oz...
LMAO
Arvo Vangy...who could you mean?..🤣🤣
Ahhh the blissful sounds of fozzies fighting...lucky it was during the day and not in the middle of the night like I normally cop...🐨🐨
The locals getting excited when someone mentions American tourists..
Do you want fries with that??
Not my photo...
ugh, now my youtube feed is overrun with koalas ...
... I meant fozzies.
Morning...be grateful it's not jars of Vegemite.. now that would be all your dreams come true...
the only food at the picnic table flies won't land on...
Morning...that one made me laugh just as well I was only having a cuppa and not my toast and vegie..

oh hell yeah...
Interesting.
What a clever way to remove power/phone lines
That wasn't my intent, but that was the effect.

perfect
Did you want homogenized or skim?
Some interesting AI iterations of a recently released image of actual brain matter at a microscopic level.
They're fantastic. The second one seems inspired by Monet.
yeah, yeah, maybe, huh?, hey wait a minute...
I know, it’s a little random. What I found interesting is how the program associated the complexity of the brain’s wiring with the complexities of metropolises, computer servers, nature, subconscious, fantasy, etc. It alludes to the abstract connection between these concepts that we subconsciously know to exist.
I got that, but I'm under some pressure to make sure my replies that keep my friends articles on the front page are topical to previous comments that aren't mine.
What the hell, the top one is my DNA.

Makes one appreciate todays camera technologies.
And for interesting imagery, to appreciate the misty climate where I am.

LOL, you missed your calling as a starving artist...
Yeah, a long time ago. I eat too well for that, thanks to my wife.
lucky guy...
hopefully your diet embraces her cultural roots. nothing healthier...
Filipino food? Even she admits how unhealthy some of it is. Very salty, very fatty. She gets a craving for it occasionally but we don't have it very often, and some of what she gets, like small dried salted fish, I don't eat.
I am. Very.
I meant the fish, vegetable, and fruit part, not the fried part...
Here isone from my morning paddle on Garnet Lake.

And here is another. What a beautiful day.

Morning...what a beautiful spot..
The top photo looks like there are rocks in the water...
What a perfect way to start your day..
... no snappies there.
Wellll I was going to ask did anything exciting live in the lake..crocs, allies....but got side tracked.
Trying to work out what to have for breakfast...veggie on toast, veggie on muffin, veggie sanga etc etc..
Wonderful. I wish I had been there with you - to be able to hear, smell and feel the morning as well as well as to see it. A feeling of being beside a lake in the early morning I've not felt for more than 20 years.
maybe a timber rattler, that would make you feel at home...
Arvo..hmmm it's a bit short and fat..and that's no fun having a rattle let's everyone know where they are..
Ours are always in stealth mode..silent and deadly..not a rattle to be heard..😁
Certainly not my photo..I would be to busy going the other way..😬
not a big fan of reptiles. I was under a house doing a telecommunications install decades ago and the homeowner calls to me from the access door, "can you shine your flashlight around down there and tell me if you see my boa constrictor or iguana? they escaped from their cages ..." >gulp<
... I forgot to mention that his crawl space was about 20 inches tall, it wasn't like I could get up and run.
Morning..I don't mind them at all so long as they stay out in the bush...
Very nice of the homeowner to tell you..I am with you, wouldn't have seen me for dust...
Just got invaded by ants they were after the cats food..left an open can on the sink.. nothing a can of fly spray won't fix..
insecticide doesn't sound safe. don't you have a blow torch handy? careful, they pop...
I am quite partial to my house and don't particularly want it to go up in flames..
Fly spray is perfectly safe here we use it for everything..from blowies (blowflies), mozzies (mosquitos), house flies, ants, cockies (cockroaches), spiders which I don't use it for other than white tailed spiders they have a nasty bite..😁
I can count the number of mosquito bites I've had in the last 2 decades on 1 hand, but spiders think I'm tasty...
Another spiritual moment in the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania.
