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 19/9/2024 I share this capture.

Like I was mostly expecting "there would be some difficulty on getting out posts" this is while I travel to visit my father. If your wondering why there may not be a post on a particular day, or why they posts may go out at unusual times it's because I'm travelling at the moment. Having a stable internet connection or "the environmental means" to put out a post is just not always possible. These infrequency will likely happen for only a total 2 weeks or less. Last night I went to sleep earlier than the usual late hour, while I had a lot more sleep than the previous night as I got used to sleeping at my fathers place. However last we had to sleep in a hotel, this is while we go on our big road. Like I have explained before, that for me unfortunately sleeping in a new bed can often cause me to have trouble falling asleep. That's exactly what happened to me the other night, so I either got 2 hours sleep at max or maybe even zero. I'm hoping this will improve soon but if we continue going on this road trip we will stay in hotels and I will likely have the same problems until sleep hits me hard. Since my eyes were already trying to shut so soon after getting up this morning it was no surprise I spent most of the day very tired. Interestingly my father who usually doesn't have a problem falling asleep anywhere said he only got about 3 hours sleep. Which makes me think there was likely something a bit off with that particular hotel. The alarm was set for the usual time this morning as I thought id likely still not get that much rest. And this is to try and make sure I would have enough rest in a attempt to keep my sleeping pattern from getting worse. As for the weather this morning I was expecting it to be much sunnier, it was relatively cloudy but this is what's been happened most days. Today however I will admit that by the afternoon if the sun was on you then my recommendation would be to avoid it and find shade. It was definitely at a dangerous level. When it came to the places we needed to visit for the documentation I had brought it seems I'm still apparently missing two things, the question always is why was I not told this earlier. Anyway when it's come to the road trip I'm a little disappointed that we seem to be going over most of the things we have done before, the idea was since there are a some fires closing roads we normally use that we would go a different way but that's not really been the case so far. However we did visit a Castle where we had to trek up a mountain which in the heat was not easy. I enjoy it but unfortunately had visited it before. We did however visit 2 dams and luckily one of them I had not visited before, in my opinion this particular area seemed like a little hidden beach amongst a field which I really enjoyed visiting. We stopped to eat at a restaurant were I almost fell over at how cheap my particular meal was compared to other places. Unfortunately after that we spent the rest of the day visiting a few cities which we already done before. And once again we got lost in them, but I'm so glad this time we managed to find our way out of them much quicker this time round. Not only that but we managed to find and book a hotel very easily when compared to last time. The only small problem was it is strangely more complicated to get in with a car, but at least now I can finally rest. On Steemit.com I'm glad to still see it working as it should, as for the "updated new look" for me personally I feel like it helps certain things stand out more, however I still feel like it's navigation could be improved. I was very worried about this but the changes aren't anything drastic. 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.

I believe this was captured on a day after I had just finished work, I had already been home got changed and 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 near the top somewhere where the flowers in the image were growing by a lot and getting tall. As you can see by the photo they continue to the left side get taller going uphill. further down we will check out in another post where we will likely take a closer look at the taller ones. I'm not sure if these particular flowers are just shaped like this or if they are still little baby buds that open at a certain time during the day or lifespan. If that's the case I believe I don't have any photo of them open, all the ones I have seen all look the same. Normally you would be able to at least find some at the different stage, either growing, closed or opening.

I think it's obvious I don't know what they are called. But with this comes a opportunity for you, if you know anything about flowers, and if you recognise this flower and know it's name let me know in the comments section below and possibly win 🏆 a upvote from me.
