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 8/4/2025 I share this capture.

I went to sleep under the usual late hour last night, this is happening because of all these early morning work shifts recently, and so I have adapted to this routine. Still I went to sleep later than I wanted because I was catching-up and making plants to meet out with friends while my other friends have gone on holiday. Falling asleep was not a problem with the night being a slightly milder one, I was tired from the early morning shifts, and I'm glad it was easier because it's been a struggle the past 3 nights. The weather this morning was bright, the sky was a clear blue, there was plenty of sun shine, temperature wise it was comfortable. 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 happens now when I'm off from work, I didn't get too hot during the night from what I know, there was surprisingly no annoying cold after getting up. 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 plans to meet up with friends later after they finish work, it's what I was discussing with them last night. I still want to continue with the kitchen at some point, fighting some of the mold that tries to settle on the walls. I got a few more pictures organised and out of my phone incase the battery in it stops working. But I really need another day where I can put a little more effort into getting this done, but I won't complain today was good for it. There was actually not that much time for getting things done before I had to get my bag ready and get changed to meet with friends. I was running late to meet them but thankfully they were also late, meaning they only had to wait a few minutes as traffic began to get heavy on my side. It was good to catch-up with them properly but of course much more could of been said before we had to depart due to work. However my friends were nice enough to drive and drop me near my home, regardless of that it was still a bad feeling soon as I got out the car there were 3 hoodies in the direction I had to go in which was rather annoying as usually there is nobody. Still I got home and the long day was beginning to take it's toll on me. 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. 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 part of the condenser project to fix the wrong display numbers. I think removing the TRX wallet is downscaling the usefulness of the SteemitWallet and the Steem token as a whole. We should of kept the TRX wallet functional, if you agree 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

This was captured on a summers day after I just finished work, I had already been home, got changed and then left again to meet with a friend at my closest green spot. There are some small hills in this area and this particular photo was captured around the top.
Up here there are various bushes and flowers, I have already shared most of my finds around this elevation and got particularly stuck on the name of all the purple flowers that I shared on previous posts.

Thankfully in this capture we are not focusing on any particular flower, instead this photo captures a lot of grass and various weeds that remain growing close to the ground.

But I believe there are still likely 2 or 3 here what we could still consider actual flowers rather than what gardeners would consider weeds, however I'm sure that can be very much up for debate.

Somewhere up here my friend rests in wait for me to arrive, this will be where the ground contains more and thicker grass growing rather than the weeds and so I would say we are getting close to finding them.

In the distance we can see the top of only the taller buildings, a long with the highest reaching tress, still difficult to see even not in having this shot captured in black and white.
But that's fine because the point here was to capture the beautiful green colour directly in-front of us, rather than the background but admit I like it very much.

Some people have told me they can see street lamps in this photo, but from my understanding this is not true. What they are seeing instead is the end of a grain like flower which are situated just slightly further down. On a slightly more zoomed capture with a wider shoot I think it makes it a little easier to see we are most likely not looking at street lamps.

Unfortunately since here we are not focussing on any particular flower there will be no upvote for guessing any names.
