I think technically it's a bird on a lamppost

I think he's munching on that wire

Abrams Falls, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN, USA
A 2.5 mile moderate hike into this 20 foot waterfall, but well worth it.

My hometown. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument is quite an attraction - especially at Christmas... they string lights from the top to create a Christmas tree, and decorate the place... as a kid, I remember all of the department stores on "the Circle" had the animated Christmas scenes of Santa's workshop and similar... the Circle still was open to vehicle traffic when I left there in '77. And as a kid, I remember climbing the steps inside the monument and looking at views of the city from the observation deck at the top. I don't know if it is open to the public any longer...

Thanks for the photo and rekindling those memories.

A fly taken a few years back on iPhone 11. Always find it very difficult getting close up detail with macro. Can’t beat a ‘real’ camera but occasionally you get these gems.

I really love the look and feel of older film photos. I guess it probably takes me back to my youth but there is something about older photos when you had to put more effort into them and wasn't able to see the result untill the darkroom... Thanks for sharing 🖖

Been over it many times on the motorcycle on our way to Laguna Seca races.

There is still a lot of desire to use film, Spielberg used film (negative stock) in the making of West Side Story where he wanted softness instead of the clinical high resolution of digital.

Earlier today. My son completed his first ever Marathon in Edinburgh. 4 Hours 48 Mins, quite respectable for his first.
