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 18/2/2025 I share this capture.

I went to sleep under the usual late hour last night, happening because of having all these early morning work shifts recently and so I have adapted to this routine. However I went to sleep later than satisfactory because I was online with friends for too long. Falling asleep was not a problem think the heating came on at the right time, still I was so tired from the early morning shifts and feeling unwell again. The weather this morning was bright, the sky was mostly clear, nicely blue even with decent sunshine, but it remained a cold day from the start. The heating as been on more lately, meaning I'm just seeing the money burning itself away. I woke-up only to my scheduled alarm, this happened last time I was off too, and also with the same problem of getting too hot during the night. Our "cat" alarm clock stayed outdoors for the night, he started to get noisy just as I was trying to sleep but luckily it soon stopped, for the rest of the night it remained quiet. This morning it was difficult to get out of bed, but only because I wanted to get more rest after missing out during the week. With a late start I was glad I didn't have work to be in for today, but more so I could rest, which means that this was a good opportunity to get on with some chores and other things. There was no plans to meet with friends because they are away seeing family, plus I have a lot of chores to get on with and I mostly wanted the rest. I wanted to continue with the kitchen, fighting some of the mold that now tries to settle on the walls. I also need to try and get the dates to my workplace for the event coming later in the year or I might miss out on it like previously. I managed to find and I think settle of the days off that I want for the event this year, and have passed this on to work now. Regardless of feeling better compared to last night being unwell made it difficult to get things done. I want to try and get one of those small work-outs done but had no chance of that if I wanted to get the rest needed to try and keep the continued flu that is trying to take over at bay. After I went for dinner and lastly I started to prepare to settle in for the night. The TRX wallets on Steemit.com have been removed by the Steemit Developers a long with any funds. This was part of the condenser project to fix all the wrong display numbers from rewards. But I think removing the TRX wallet is downscaling the usefulness of the SteemitWallet and the Steem token as a whole. You can recover any funds by creating a new tron account with TronLink and then adding the Steem generated TRX account to that newly created account. Regardless I still think we should of kept the TRX wallet functional. If you agree on keeping the TRXwallet you can write to them here asking for it's return TRXWallet. Hope you have a good day or night and I will see you on the next Steemit post.

Today's Picture

I often spend some of my time taking care of many abandoned cats who mostly all suffer from some form of psychological trauma. At one point there was 16 of these cats that needed our support/care, over the years this number as gone down to 7, and so sometimes I share their life's moments here on Steemit. Some of your upvotes and the rewards received from this post will be used to support them a long with the continued support for the Steem Token itself.

A few weeks ago we resumed posting our cat photos again, during the very long break I had focused on photographing mostly flowers growing in the small local hills.

The Steemit community has been helpful, with thanks to some users chipping on their ideas and identifying several species of plants. I believe that this experience has showcased another valuable use of the Steemit blockchain.

This photo was taken at the beginning of summer on still a relatively dark day but by the early afternoon the sun was out.
This was enough to get the interest of Tinkerbell "the pictured cat" to venture outside, we decided to place "her" blue towel outside incase she would be more comfortable on it.

The results were very good she decided it was a good spot to catch a bit of sun, on this photo we sneak up on Tinkerbell enjoying the sunshine. This isn't a close-up like previously shared but instead almost a aerial view, we have also gone for a black and white shot with some initial great results. It's not the best black and white shot taken from this particular collection of Tinkerbell I feel, but I will share the better ones another time. On this photo she's relaxed with our presence snapping some photos, well for now but I will share on another post more of her reactions to our presence as we continue to take more of her photos.

Tinkerbell is no longer with us but I still want to continue recording and sharing her pictures here on the blockchain a long with the others cats. She was a very violent cat initially due to what she had suffered in life but spending years in our care she eventually started to mellow down "almost completely" especially around me, in my presence she was very calm to the point this violent cat became a sweetheart. There was even a point where she would give me human like hugs when I would pick her up, and that's just something about her that stands out to me, and it's something that I can't forget and miss.
