Photography or a single image I feel often captures those treasured moments in ones life, there is nothing quite like looking back and reflecting good or bad. But I also find that just like the act of writing our collective pictures can also be a art-form. The beauty and meaning of a photo can be expressed and shared in many ways including not even using a single word but instead just seeing what it makes you feel.
While I do enjoy photography I used to share those "everyday" type images that captures just those typical day to day activities, the feedback was mostly positive and so I continued sharing these "Ulog type" photos on Steemit.
Almost every picture as a story to tell right? Or at least that is what I was often been told by some of my followers when I first started sharing photos on here, and I would have to agree with them.
Today 11/11/2024 I share this capture.

I went to sleep just under the usual late hour, this happened because I was very tired from work and was struggling to stay awake still 30 minutes earlier would of been ideal. Falling asleep unlike some of the previous nights lately was not a problem. There was fireworks but they were mostly quiet by that time and not as many compared to yesterday. The weather this morning was shocking we finally had a break from the dark, cloudy and miserable looking days, instead it was bright with lots of sunshine which unfortunately did help with the cold all that much. They said the dark miserable weather would continue for 2 weeks straight and I thought it was only to get worse so it's nice to see a break of sunshine. I'm surprised that during this time we have only had very light rain once or twice, but I'm sure all that will be coming soon. What I do know is since hitting November the temperature as definitely got colder and so the heating as been on a little more meaning money will start burning away. I woke-up 1 hour before my scheduled alarm, I hope to stop waking up hours prior to my alarm which as been happening on and off ever since my father was here visiting. I tried going back to sleep and was successful, I have been resting past the alarm lately, this is likely because of the cold, a seasonal issue I guess. But this morning was a struggle to get out of bed, this was because of work yesterday I think. With a late start I was glad I didn't have work to be in for today which means that this was a good opportunity to get on with some chores and get other things done. My friend who had a very brief trial shift is in hopes of getting a response today about getting a job. They were suppose to get news about how well they did on Friday but there was nothing. Which as been discouraging for them but I disagree as likely they were just too busy, and so I wish them good luck. Checking-in so far my cheap fix for both the cracks and the wallpapering have been holding well which I hope will make it through winter. Still I had to hurry with things today because I planned to meet with friends later. Before leaving I wanted to try and fit with one of those work-outs but with time already putting me late I done a little but won't class it as having done one. Once my free time was over I got my bag ready, changed clothing and left the house to meet friends. On the way I was suppose to take with me some things to dispose correctly, I'm getting senile because even with getting the things out to dispose I only remembered it after leaving the house 3 minutes later. I was thinking of going back but I was already running late so decided against it. I think what else stopped me from returning was how it was generally getting icy out and I didn't want to waste anymore time in the cold. Meeting with friends I was sure to of got some news about my friend trying to get employment but there was sadly no developments which did surprise me. I was also sad to hear the one of my friends lost their family cat due to old age, Oliver rest in peace. I started to return home a little later than I wanted, it was relatively chilly out but at least quiet. I was looking forward to getting my food which was sticky ribs, corn and pasta. When I got home I changed and went for dinner, I didn't check-in with my father as it was much too late, and lastly I started to prepare to settle in for the night. I'm disappointed that without warning our TRX wallets on Steemit.com had just disappeared a long with all the funds. The TRX distribution code has been removed from the wallet by the Steemit developers. This was part of the condenser project to fix all the wrong display numbers from the rewards "which I'm glad was fixed" but I think removing the TRX wallet from the SteemitWallet is downscaling the usefulness of the SteemitWallet as a whole. The only way to recover the funds is to make a new tron account with TronLink and then adding the Steem generated TRX account to that newly created account. This as already been confirmed to work tested it myself and so have other steemians but regardless I still think we should keep the TRX wallet functional. If you agree write to them here asking for the return of the TRX Wallet on Steemit TRXWallet. Hope you have a good day or night and I will see you on the next Steemit post.
Today's Picture
As for the picture today I share some flower photography, a quick disclaimer I understand that this type of photography on Steemit has a bit of a bad reputation. This is because it was often used by spammers to make like 8 posts each day.
Hopefully as you can see from my blog I'm nowhere near making 8 or more posts per day on the topic of flower imagery.
This was captured on a summers day after I just finished work, I had already been home, got changed and then left again to meet with a friend at my closest green spot. There are some small hills in this area and this particular photo was captured around the top.
Up here there are various bushes and flowers, I have already been sharing a few of my finds on this elevation and I'm particularly stuck on the name of all the purple flowers that I have shared on previous posts.
Thankfully in this capture we are not focusing on any particular flower instead this photo captures a lot of grass and various weeds that remain growing close to the ground.
I believe there is still likely 2 or 3 of what some would glass as flowers. And somewhere up here my friend rests in wait for me to arrive where the ground as more grass growing than weeds.
In the distance we can see the top of only some of the taller buildings a long with the highest reaching tress.
We might take a closer look on another post as some people have told me they can see street lamps in this photo, from my understanding this is not true what they are seeing instead is the end of a grain like flower.
Unfortunately since we are not focussing on any particular flower here there will be no upvote for guessing it's name, however the purple flowers from the previous post still remains a mystery.
But with this comes a opportunity for you, if you know anything about flowers, and if you recognise this flower just below and know it's name let me know in the comments section and possibly win 🏆 a upvote from me.
