I found the above flower in a planter I had bought my wife for Mother's day. The flowers were small so I used my macro-lens and took multiple photographs. I was amazed when I reviewed the photos and found this one. I have no idea what flower this is. I did share it or a similar flower on Facebook to share with my family.
Encontré la flor de arriba en una maceta que le había comprado a mi mujer para el día de la madre. Las flores eran pequeñas, así que utilicé mi objetivo macro y tomé varias fotografías. Me sorprendió cuando revisé las fotos y encontré ésta. No tengo ni idea de qué flor es. La compartí o una flor similar en Facebook para compartirla con mi familia.
Today I am not going to do much more of a narrative. All the drama that is going on has reminded me of what transpired on Steemit and Hive.
Then it was decided to raise fees. I can absorb the extra cost but I am concern how it will impact those of you with limited Blurt Power. I think of Blurt as Blurt, and not some other form of currency. Increase in fees impacts the growth of our BP. I have heard different rationales, but it does not change the fact that growth of BP will be impacted.
Not sure if readers are even interested in my narrative. Instead I will add some photography and call it good. Working with my photographs always makes me feel better.
Hoy no voy a hacer mucha más narración. Todo el drama que está ocurriendo me ha recordado lo que ocurrió en Steemit y Hive.
Entonces se decidió subir las tarifas. Puedo absorber el coste adicional, pero me preocupa cómo afectará a aquellos de ustedes con un poder limitado de Blurt. Pienso en Blurt como Blurt, y no como otra forma de moneda. El aumento de las tasas repercute en el crecimiento de nuestro BP. He oído diferentes razones, pero eso no cambia el hecho de que el crecimiento de la PA se verá afectado.
No estoy seguro de que a los lectores les interese mi relato. En su lugar, añadiré algunas fotografías y lo llamaré bueno. Trabajar con mis fotografías siempre me hace sentir mejor.
My next photograph has the same flower as the one above, along with one I have shared before. They look excellent growing together.
La siguiente fotografía tiene la misma flor que la anterior, junto con otra que he compartido antes. Tienen un aspecto excelente al crecer juntas.
The following photograph is of one of my houseplants that I have been growing for quite a few years. It is called an African Violet. I only have this color and a pink one. I have taken many photos of them over the years and have shared similar photos on all three platforms.
La siguiente fotografía es de una de mis plantas de interior que cultivo desde hace bastantes años. Se llama Violeta Africana. Sólo tengo este color y otro rosa. He tomado muchas fotos de ellas a lo largo de los años y he compartido fotos similares en las tres plataformas.
I mentioned in my last post that I also share wild life photography. I have trail cameras setup on my property and my daughter's property. I am just now getting them set up for the summer. This next photo was taken last summer. We were havening a severe drought. I have a salt-block and a tub of water here to help the deer through the dry times. Other wildlife use the water as well. This guy’s head is blocking the tub of water. He has come up to check out my camera.
En mi último post mencioné que también comparto la fotografía de la vida salvaje. Tengo cámaras de rastreo instaladas en mi propiedad y en la de mi hija. Ahora las estoy instalando para el verano. La siguiente foto fue tomada el verano pasado. Estábamos pasando por una severa sequía. Tengo un bloque de sal y una tina de agua aquí para ayudar a los ciervos a través de los tiempos secos. Otros animales silvestres también utilizan el agua. La cabeza de este tipo está bloqueando la bañera de agua. Se ha acercado a ver mi cámara.
The wooden sculpture was created by ants. The person who I get firewood from brings me only trees that have fallen or have died. I found this in a tree that had been dead for quite a few years and then it came down. This piece is one of several I set aside when splitting the wood. The elephant peaking around it was purely an accident when I took the photo. I was only thinking of the ant sculpture. My wife loves elephants and we have many statues, sketches, and even a painting done by an elephant. I took this photograph with my Android smart phone, and decided to keep it as is. I hope you enjoy it.
La escultura de madera fue creada por las hormigas. La persona a la que le compro leña me trae sólo árboles caídos o muertos. Encontré esto en un árbol que llevaba bastantes años muerto y luego se vino abajo. Esta pieza es una de las varias que aparté al partir la leña. El elefante que asoma alrededor fue un puro accidente cuando tomé la foto. Sólo pensaba en la escultura de la hormiga. Mi esposa ama a los elefantes y tenemos muchas estatuas, bocetos, e incluso una pintura hecha por un elefante. Tomé esta fotografía con mi teléfono inteligente Android y decidí mantenerla tal cual. Espero que la disfruten.
I do not think I have shared this flower since I started blogging again. I took the photograph last night so it is a new photograph. The label on the potted flower mix I bought indicated it was a calibrachoa, named Good Night Kiss. I am amazed at this beauty and will have to make sure I added it to my flower beds next year.
Creo que no he compartido esta flor desde que empecé a bloguear de nuevo. Tomé la fotografía anoche, así que es una fotografía nueva. La etiqueta de la mezcla de flores en maceta que compré indicaba que era una calibrachoa, llamada Good Night Kiss. Estoy sorprendida por esta belleza y tendré que asegurarme de añadirla a mis parterres el año que viene.
This final flower is a Bearded Iris. At times I have difficulty capturing the fully beauty of the flower, but I am very happy how this photograph came out this year. Enjoy!
Esta última flor es un Iris Barbudo. A veces me cuesta captar la belleza total de la flor, pero estoy muy contento de cómo ha salido esta fotografía este año. ¡Que la disfruten!
This brings us to the end of this publication. I trust you will find something in it that you enjoy.
Con esto llegamos al final de esta publicación. Confío en que encuentren en ella algo que les guste.
I normally use a Canon EOS Rebel T5 for most photographs, except where noted. I do have an older PowerShot Canon digital camera that I use from time to time. I do take some photographs with my Samsung Note 9 smart phone and include them from time to time. The only editing I do on my photographs is some cropping to center the photo, or to bring it closer to the viewer.
Normalmente utilizo una Canon EOS Rebel T5 para la mayoría de las fotografías, excepto cuando se indica. Tengo una cámara digital PowerShot Canon más antigua que utilizo de vez en cuando. También tomo algunas fotografías con mi teléfono inteligente Samsung Note 9 y las incluyo de vez en cuando. La única edición que hago en mis fotografías es algún recorte para centrar la foto, o para acercarla al espectador.

THIS IS A SCAM. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. SEE BLURT GENERAL CHAT FOR MORE INFORMATION. THAT IS WHERE I FIRST SAW THIS. I WANT TO MUTE IT, BUT I NEED TO KEEP SEEING TO WARN PEOPLE.
Thank you for getting it removed.
Wow awesome excellent photography post sir.i like it.very very nice.
Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed the photographs.
I loved the color of all the flowers you posted today...the ants did a good job....
By the way, Kathe has loved elephants since she was a child, she had a dumbo that she carried everywhere and one day it got lost and Kathe had been missing it for years.
Thank you. I like elephants myself. We have wood sculpture's of elephants and all other types. Even clocks that depict elephants. Not easy for a child to loose their Dumbo!
Great piece of art
The flowers are simply amazing
Great shots
Thank you zami2
Fantastic post about different flowers and beautiful animals.
I see your post you like always lovely and different flowers. flowers 🌺🌹🌹🌺.
Thank you very much
Hi,@r2cornell beautiful post about different flowers and deer 🦌,I hope you continue sharing your thoughts and experience with all Blurt family and friends.
God blessings on you always.
Thank you very much
I think it important for voices to be heard that are level headed, especially when things are charged. Many watch from the sidelines feeling impotent and discouraged and look to those they respect to provide what may align with their views that often can seem to be ignored.
You have much good will here that has been cultivated from years of selfless dedication to multiple platforms and accounts that view your actions as a blessing. This is just my view on this, but you are well known as an advocate for many who struggle and this issue is one that affects how those you have been an advocate for greatly.
Voicing concerns doesn't have to be controversial, especially if ground can be explored that can see if something can be worked out that is able to incorporate something from all perspectives to something greater.
The folks at power club are already working on a possible solution. It might not ease the issue for all, but it is through expressed observations such as you make that folks can move forwards such as powerclub in finding solutions.
My mother would enjoy your many plants/flowers. She has always had quite the green thumb, and when she has to travel needs someone to do the watering for her.
I especially enjoyed the wooden piece. Interesting ants were the artist, hahaha.
I've seen some exquisite art from wood that comes from Africa in my years that I was involved in buying/selling. Years ago I had acquired (long gone now) a bowl and cup set made of wood individually carved. Wood is quite captivating at times.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you very much for your comment. Sometimes I get discouraged when these issues come up. Your words always help me in the process of putting things into perspective.
I tried talking to Witnesses about the fee increase, because some set theirs high. For the most part it was a waste of my time. The do not see Blurt Power as BP, but in other units of currency. One person did listen and was very open about it. There is hope. The whole fee thing started as a result of the drama, but now to convince the masses they have focused it on fighting spam and vote farming.
The ants sure did an excellent job in creating that piece of work. I only had to clean off the dust and then put a clear coat on it to protect the wood. It is fascinating to see it close up.
I am glad I am back to flower photography. It is extremely satisfying.
Thank you
Stunning flowers @r2cornell some of them I have never seen before thanks for sharing :)
Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed.
You often share pictures of flowers and you like flowers. I see that there is a picture of one of the beautiful flowers in which I think it looks like a baby deer.
Thank you for the visit
nice post. You post is very good.
