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 26/9/2024 I share this capture.

Like I was 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 the 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 infrequencies will likely happen for a total of 2 weeks or less. And I can now confirm that we will soon be resuming our hunt for more Steem, this is to stress it for a higher value token. The road trip is over and has been for a few days now, I suppose to be relaxing in these final days before returning home. That's not been happening much as my father makes more plans and so forcing us to rush around here and there. Today however while we still had to meet a few people for lunch we tried to spent most of it at the beach. When we arrived it was quickly clear that the wind was making it slightly unpleased. So instead we chilled for a few minutes inside the bar/restaurant facing the beach. About 45 minutes later we had to rush off to meet my fathers friends for lunch in the city. We had a really nice big cheap meal with my fathers friends, some of his friends were dropped off at the centre of the city before we once again made our way to the beach to try and relax for the rest of the day. Because the wind continued to be the main problem at the actual beach we instead went to hang out at a restaurant/bar with a protected roof top with 360 large winddowns to relax, enjoy the views and get some sunshine. To avoid the rush hour of the city on our return home we stayed there for a little longer than I would of liked, but even with that we still caught some traffic. For dinner we went to a buffet I was not expecting anything special but was infact shocked by how good it was there. I'm not just talking about the food, the place was very large the pictures my dad showed me of the place previously really didn't show off it's scale. They even placed down the red carpet for you at the entrance and it's decorated in mostly 3 colours, white, black and cold. Sounds like a expensive place to eat at but that's where you'd be wrong, I was so shocked by how cheap the food is but of course drinks are more costly than usual. That dinner was indeed a great way to end the day.

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 the way to work near the super market as the weather was getting better, the main focus here is what I believe are 3 Pink Ballerina Heesterrozen's. Yes that's right these are the so called "Pink" ones that I was referring to on a previous post about their colours VS their name. Like I have said before the ones I previously shared I honestly felt like it's colour was more "pink" rather than red. But it's only when you see the ones they call the "Pink Ballerina" side by side with the reds does it make more sense to me as to why those previous ones are called "red" and these are the pink ones.

Regardless naturally I love the colour contrast of these flowers, going from a light white to a beautiful pink, these captured luckily are also still in great condition.

I think this image is the only time I captured the Pink Ballerina Heesterrozen in black and white, I really liked the end result as I feel the image is very clear and gives us a good detailed look of this beautiful flower.

I believe that just like their red counterparts that these Pink Ballerina Heesterrozen is said to be a "shrub rose", they usually flowers between May and October which as been true for me and they are said to handle the rainy weather well.

Unfortunately since we already know this is the Pink Ballerina Heesterrozen there will be no upvote for guessing it's name.

However the purple flower from the previous post still remains a mystery.
