Photography or a image I feel often captures those treasured moments in ones life but I also find that just like the act of writing our collective pictures can also be an art-form. The beauty and meaning of photograph can be expressed and shared in many ways including "by not using any words".

While I do like photography I used to share images when I could that I captured day to day events, the feedback was mostly positive and I continued sharing these "Ulog type" photos.

Almost every picture as a story to tell, or at least that is what I have often been told by some of my regular followers when I first started sharing photos on here.
To those who have often said and expressed that to me I would have to agree with them.

Today 1/3/2023 I share this capture.

Hope everybody as been having a good year can you believe we arrived at the 3rd month already, not long ago we had pancake day but due to my busy schedule I have not had the opportunity to have any yet. Well there is a particular place I wanted to go for them and it's just not been possible to visit with friends lately.
But perhaps who knows today we can eat there.

It never was exactly a joyful start to the year unless your a NPC or in a good place as the power companies raised the cost of energy once again at the start of January.
Honestly it's like they are charging more and more every 4 months or something, it's getting really out of hand and yet it's claimed we are able to produce more energy then ever before due to todays technology.
The same as been said for food yet much of the world is struggling for food, someone is telling lies.
Of course much of the excuse is down to the Ukraine war which unbelievably as now been going on for over a year.

Last night I went to sleep just slightly earlier than the usual late hour this was because of a simple 20 minute distraction.
When I got up this morning it was nicely sunny but this didn't last too long and all the cloud started coming in, the sun is trying to stay present but most likely the clouds will win.
I rested for a bit longer after my alarm but not for that long as I was ready to start the day, I didn't have work to get in for but I was meeting up with friends later.

I started with getting chores done and logging on Steemit I was also expecting the repair man to arrive so he could fix a few things.
The guy arrived relatively late to what I expected, when he did leave I had probably less than 20 minutes left to leave if I was to meet on time with friends.
I didn't expected him to fix two things at once I thought it was going to be the case of needing to get parts but luckily it was all fixed quickly without any hassle.

When I was about to leave the sun started to shine in which i hoped would mean it would be a little warmer out.
I expected to get outside and feel very cold still but due to the sun it had warmed up to the point it was relatively pleasant with all I had on.

I believe my friend was out of work earlier but I think due to traffic I got there before them.
My friends suggested we watch a film which I wasn't too much in the mood for but enjoyed it in the end, still no pancakes.

When I left my friends it was actually pretty chilly out so glad I continued to wear the extra layers.
As I made my way home it was a relatively quiet night out, when I got home I saw the headlines and another 4 people were stabbed nearby today, yesterday was 3, it just doesn't stop.

Picture

As for our picture today I share some flower photography and yes I know that flower photography on Steemit as 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 flowers.
When I took this it may of been on my way to work, I saw this interesting yet beautiful wall or bush in flower and had to capture it.
Not only does this wall of greenery look nice but I noticed that there are initially 2 different flowers living here together.
I tried to highlight how the plant reaches out and tries to block a path behind it that many people don't notice, I should of tried to capture it from also another perspective to demonstrate. So firstly there are the roses, but unfortunately I'm not good with recognising many flowers and so don't know what are the names of the other 2 flowers. But from what I can tell on further inspection there is yet another flower living there. And so all together we have the red roses, another red flower that sometimes looks similar to a rose and another flower that is very beautiful with both red and yellow in colour. I feel here in this picture it can be difficult to see the difference between the rose and the other red flowers. The flowers with a hint of yellow I think they could be related to the red flower.
If anybody can correctly tell me the name of either of these 2 flowers you can win a upvote from me.
