Reflections on HF 20

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

After all the excitement of hard-fork 20. Here is a lovely peaceful lake scene for all the witnesses and for us to contemplate. The sun was shining in the sky and the lake was looking gorgeous.

All of the steem apps were offline for me apart from steemitstage which kept going most of the time.

A big thank you @soyrosa of the #adsactly team for spreading the news and keeping everyone informed about the outage on the discord channels and for the advice to take the opportunity to get out in the sun and enjoy the down time. :-)

Now you can relax

The reflection of the willow in the lake caught my eye and the water lily raft was attracting the Grebes.

This is the first time I have ever seen a woodpecker nest. Which was very nice. :-)

Hopefully things will seem a lot more peaceful after seeing these images and all the excitement of HF 20 is behind us...almost :-)

The good news is that the price of steem jumped up 10 cents!? Maybe we should have a hard fork every week? lol

Nice shots @molometer :-)
Water is something where I can relax everytime :-)

Can't beat a nice walk around the lakes. Always puts things in perspective. :-)

That's true :-)

Glad you went outside :D

HF20 will still happen next week - Now it was 'just' an overlooked incompatibility between HF's (some were already on HF20, others not yet) that is now being patched.

Gorgeous shots by the way!

Thanks for your support and advice yesterday @soyrosa I got some nice photos. HF20 is a great excuse to get some exercise lol

Beautiful photos! That woodpecker hole is a great find! And it is so exciting to see Steem prices going up this morning! Thanks to all our great witnesses!

Thanks Melinda, the witnesses were working flat out yesterday. We are lucky to have such dedicated people maintaining the network. I may have to join them?

You would be a dedicated witness and would have my full support!

That's good to know. Thanks Melinda :-)

Definitely hectic day.

Gracias por tus cálidos comentarios me alegra que te haya gustado este placr

Glad you took advantage of the downtime yesterday. I was a bit puzzled at first, as I have taken quite some time off from Steemit, so thought I was being blocked. LOL! Like you though, I learned on the Discord channel what was going on, so i took the opportunity to work on some images for uploading to my art sites and stock agencies!

Good opportunity to catch up on stuff. I made a new photography website. :-)

This is filled with so much beauty. Thanks @molometer

It is a beautiful lake and surrounded by forest. Great place to find peace and quiet.

Lovely photoshoot... Really i love your photography my dear friend molometer

That's very kind of you to say moniroy. Thank you.
