Posted in response to Minttu Gustafsson’s Facebook challenge:
A three day three selfie challenge
“I am who I am, your approval isn’t needed”
Elevator Selfies
Selfies
Self-imposed snaps
When ever, where ever
Is a matter of fact
Never say never
You might get caught
In selfie pose of sorts
With the camera
Held in your hand
Lens facing yours
Was it planned?
Never mind, I won’t tell
No breaking the spell
Selfies are the now
And then
In honour of Caturday and all cats everywhere

Caturday, 2015-11-21
Cats in stripes
Cats all white
Cats that are black
Cats which are gray
Cats in a six pack
Cats who are stray
Take one home
You’re never alone
The time spent
With your cat
Even if a chat
Is never complicated
And never wasted

Fabulous Friday or Ode to my Shiny Shoes
My shiny golden shoes
No time for the blues
Singing and dancing
In my shoes of fancy
My lovely golden shoes
Act as some kind of muse
They might be flashy
But I feel quite dashy
I may not be Howard Hughes
And I don’t need any booze
With minimal financing
I am out celebrating
Thank Goodness
For Fabulous Fridays!

Posted in Fav Foto Friday
“Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”
“My photography is the result of being there at the right moment” Rene Burri
Favourite Photo of the Week, 2015-11-20
For this week’s favourite photo, I have chosen the one tagged as “Tricolour”.
This photograph is related to the recent events in the most gorgeous city in the world, that of Paris, France. It was originally posted for the “SL WEEK” photo challenge, run by Sylvain Landry , titled “Bleu, Blanc, Rouge”.

The flowers on the table

Snapped a few pics

Today, Thursday
Early morning
I woke up
Showered
Looked out the window
It was really dark
The rain had continued
All through the night
Went outside for a while
Snapped a few pics
Worked, worked, worked
Meetings and then some
Had a snack break
The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics
Worked some more
Afternoon
It was time for a
Splash in the pool
Left to take the dive
Had a few minutes to enjoy the nature
Snapped a few pics
Back home
More work
More meetings
Urgency
Finally,
Working day ended
It was really dark outside
Put out some Christmas decor
Snapped a few pics
Much later
Posted some blogs
Went to sleep
Dreaming of tomorrow…
It will be Fabulous Friday!

Throwback Thursday 2015-11-19
Today is time for a walk down memory lane again and dig into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind since the beginning of time. Well at least from the beginning of this blog 😛
Here are a few featured today:
The Illusion of Multitasking (Repost for TBT)
The Label Maker (Repost for TBT)
Let the Rantings continue!!!
“I’m great at multitasking. I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at once”
The Illusion of Multitasking
In case you were asking
My answer:
I was multitasking
Procrastinating
Deferring
Until tomorrow
Without a sorrow
Delaying the inevitable
Playing the pivotable
Unproductive
Almost destructive
The illusion
Of accomplishment
Clear as day
In my mind
Everything a play
Nothing accomplished
Nothing adhered
Time is a wasting
That much is clear
It was just the illusion
Of multitasking

Week 14: Garden Treasure
This week’s theme: Garden Treasure
– a piece of ground adjoining a house, used for growing flowers, fruit, or vegetables
– a quantity of precious metals, gems, or other valuable objects.
“Woman is the sun, an extraordinary creature, one that makes the imagination gallop” Marcello Mastroianni
Creatures of the Back Yard
They are strange and rusted
Quite possibly really busted
Those little peculiar creatures
Of my own back yard
It’s all part of nature
Despite the man made feature
Those little odd beasties
Of my own back yard
You really got to love them
They may be impure gems
Those little strange beings
Of my own back yard
