Akira Belém

We got yet another magic sunset as I ”feared” Now it's soon midnight and I'm exhausted after having taken another huge batch of photos

Made an Akira-Belém Hipsta edit and blended it with the original photo in iColorama and added some coherence on the vegetation in the foreground. Then I did something more. ALready forgotten. Can't have been more than 30 minutes ago, and I have no idea what I did

Foggy night. On my way to the bedroom, I noticed the fog so I just HAD to step outside to see if it was possible to capture the misty darkness

Revealing the colours

A beautiful butterfly joined me as I was sitting on a bench by the lakeside. Of course I grabbed my phone for some shots. Wrong light to get the beautiful colours. But easily fixed by lifting the shadows.

Horrible closeup

We have a cute squirrel hanging around here

To much zoom. Tried to enhance with Radiant Mobile and Snapseed

Squirrels. How can they be so cute and so annoying at the same time?

Agree. I guess our bird neighbours are not amused

Today’s DH project: 135 meatballs

My DH is a true master chef - lucky me Meat balls remind me of my childhood so I chose a vintage style for the first two

 

[Starzee]

I love meatballs. What is the device in the first photo? And what kind of meat? Looks like turkey.

The device in the first one is an old pepper grinder. The meat is half beef half pig. We had them for dinner - well, not all of them They were delicious

We went for a drive hunting for beautiful things to capture. We found nothing. When we got back home we found this

That’s my meatloaf mix! I just love that skillet your DH uses. It seems slightly wok like. I also like that it looks electric. No worry about running out of propane.

There’s no place like home!

I think the skillet was advertised as ”huge wok pan”. No electrity though. But we always have an extra propane container ready for use. AND we can cook even when we have power outages

Sad story with a happy ending

When Linus arrived here this afternoon he wanted to go to the supermarket

"Oh no, what's happened - the bubbles are not on their usual shelf Gaahhh - I want bubbles NOW !"

10 minutes of desperate search...

"Found them Let's buy some!"

"Now I'm happy again I just love bubbles"

"Now, let's hurry back home - I'm ready for the weekend"

I could have sworn that one end looked like a plug in. But it‘s still cool.

The black triangle in the left corner is part of the roof of one of the newer houses close to us. It doesn't matter how much I zoom - those houses are always ruining my view.
