I wonder if anyone in positions to do so are making plans for election day ... if folks are afraid to go to hospital appointments now, when ICE is at the entrance ... imagine what will happen when ICE sets up at voting places

📍"Life," by Charles Adrian Pillars, Memorial Park, Riverside neighborhood, Jacksonville, Florida
This image captures the iconic "Life" sculpture in Memorial Park, Jacksonville, Florida, set against a stunning sunrise or sunset over the St. Johns River. The central bronze sculpture, also known as "Spiritualized Life" or colloquially as "Winged Victory", was created by Florida sculptor Charles Adrian Pillars and dedicated on Christmas Day, 1924, to honor Floridian soldiers who died in World War I. It depicts a winged, nude male youth rising from a globe-shaped mass of human figures struggling in the "chaos of war", holding an olive branch, the emblem of peace. The park itself was designed by the renowned Olmsted Brothers firm, known for their work on New York's Central Park. The vibrant orange and blue sky suggests the picture was taken near sunrise, as indicated by the timestamp in the bottom corner of the image.

This image is a close-up photograph of a beach sunflower (Helianthus debilis), also known as the cucumberleaf or dune sunflower. Description Flower: The flower features bright yellow ray florets (petals) surrounding a dark brown, raised central disc composed of tiny disc florets. These blooms typically measure about 2 to 4 inches across. Foliage: The plant has green, somewhat rough or hairy leaves and stems. The leaves in the image appear broad and lush. Context: The visual search results indicate this species is a low-growing, often perennial, native to the southeastern United States, particularly the coastal areas of Florida and Georgia. It is known for blooming almost year-round and is popular with pollinators. This image is a close-up photograph of a pink camellia flower in full bloom. The flower is a beautiful soft pink with some lighter, almost white, edges and features a prominent center of yellow stamens and mixed smaller petals (petaloids), typical of an anemone or semi-double form camellia. Key details include: Petals: Numerous layers of delicate, ruffled petals. Foliage: The background consists of glossy, dark green evergreen leaves, characteristic of the camellia plant. Context: Text overlay on the image identifies the source as "@RiversideBryan" and includes a date stamp: "January 15, 2026 7:38 AM". The image captures the intricate texture and vibrant color of the bloom against the natural, blurred background of the bush. This image is a close-up photograph of a pink camellia flower. The flower has a vibrant, deep pink or fuchsia color with a contrasting, bright yellow central mass of stamens. Visual Details Petals: The petals are semi-double in form, meaning they are layered but still reveal the flower's center. They have a slightly ruffled or crinkled texture. Foliage: The bloom is surrounded by glossy, dark green evergreen leaves, which provide a rich backdrop. Context: The lower right corner of the image includes a watermark with the username "@RiversideBryan" and a timestamp of "January 15, 2026 7:39 AM". Flower Type Based on the visual characteristics and bloom time (January), this appears to be a type of Camellia sasanqua or a hybrid cultivar, as these varieties typically flower from fall into early winter, unlike the later-blooming Camellia japonica.

This image captures a vibrant sunrise on January 12, 2026, featuring a striking palette of pink, purple, and blue hues transitioning across the sky. The dramatic colors are a result of atmospheric light scattering, a weather phenomenon often seen during or after a storm or at sunrise/sunset. In the foreground, a bare, silhouetted tree dominates the composition with its intricate, leafless branches extending into the colorful sky. A small bird is perched on one of the central branches. The lower portion of the image shows the dark silhouettes of dense foliage, adding contrast to the bright sky. The timestamp "@RiversideBryan January 12, 2026 7:17 AM" is visible in the bottom right corner.

This image features a vibrant red hibiscus flower in full bloom, likely a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis or a related hybrid, a popular tropical ornamental plant. The flower has large, trumpet-shaped petals and a prominent central stamen and pistil extending outward, capped with yellow anthers. Key Details: Color and Form: The petals are a deep, saturated red, forming a wide, open bloom. Foliage: The flower is surrounded by glossy, dark green leaves with serrated (toothed) edges. Background: The background is an out-of-focus mix of green foliage, brown branches, and earth tones. Text Overlay: The image includes a watermark and timestamp at the bottom right corner: "@RiversideBryan January 12, 2026 8:18 AM". These tropical hibiscus flowers are known for their showy, eye-catching appearance and can attract pollinators like butterflies and hummingbirds. While each individual bloom often lasts only for a single day, the plant typically produces new flowers continuously throughout its growing season in warm climates. This image features two types of flowering plants in dark soil: Yellow flowers: The prominent yellow flowers are snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus), which grow on tall spikes with the blooms clustered along the stem. Their unique shape resembles a dragon's snout that can open and close when squeezed. Purple flowers: Behind and to the side of the snapdragons are smaller, fringed purple flowers, which appear to be dianthus (also known as "pinks"). The image also contains a timestamp overlay in the bottom right corner reading "@RiversideBryan January 12, 2026 8:04 AM". This image is a close-up photograph of a bright pink or red rose in bloom. The flower has numerous ruffled petals, giving it a full, lush appearance, with the central part of the flower slightly more pink in hue. There appears to be a small bee or insect inside the center of the bloom. The rose is surrounded by green leaves and a blurred background of brown mulch or dried leaves. Text overlaid on the bottom right corner of the image includes: @RiversideBryan January 12, 2026 8:11 AM The flower appears to be a type of shrub rose or floribunda rose, a variety known for producing abundant clusters of flowers and often being disease-resistant. Some visually similar varieties found in search results include the Kolorscape Flamingo Shrub Rose or a type of Knock Out rose, a popular and resilient option.

This image captures a vibrant sunrise at Goodby's Creek in Jacksonville, Florida. The scene features calm dark water in the foreground, with patches of marsh grasses and the silhouettes of numerous dead or bare trees, sometimes referred to as a "ghost forest" in the area's wetlands. The sky is a dramatic display of pre-dawn color, with deep purples and blues fading into bright pinks and oranges right above the horizon where the sun is rising in the southeast. Streaks of white contrails from airplanes are visible across the upper sky. The vivid colors of the sky are clearly reflected on the surface of the tranquil water below, enhancing the peaceful and scenic view of this local tributary of the St. Johns River.

#SilentSunday
This image captures a vibrant sunrise featuring dramatic "cotton candy" clouds with striking hues of pink, purple, and blue. The colors are a result of sunlight traveling through a greater amount of atmosphere at a low angle, scattering shorter blue wavelengths and allowing longer red and pink wavelengths to reach the eye. Details Sky Colors: The sky is dominated by a mix of deep purple and bright pink clouds contrasted against patches of pale blue and white where the sunlight breaks through. Foreground: The lower portion of the image shows a silhouette of trees, power lines, and streetlights, which appear dark against the bright horizon, indicating it is early morning. Context: Text overlaid on the image identifies the creator as "@RiversideBryan" and provides a timestamp: "January 09, 2026 7:37 AM". Pink and red sunrises are sometimes associated with the meteorological saying "red sky in morning, sailors take warning," which can indicate that a storm or low-pressure system is approaching from the west.

This image is of a poinsettia plant (Euphorbia pulcherrima), which is widely known as the quintessential Christmas holiday plant. The striking red "petals" are actually modified leaves called bracts, which surround the inconspicuous small yellow flowers (cyathia) found in the center of the leaf clusters. This image is a close-up photograph of a cluster of vibrant, orange-red azalea flowers. The flowers are funnel-shaped, with some brown, spent sepals visible near the base of the blooms. The flowers are set against a backdrop of deep green, evergreen foliage, creating a high contrast that highlights their bright color. The lighting in the photograph appears to be natural sunlight, highlighting the texture of the petals and leaves, and there appear to be small water droplets on some of the flowers and leaves. Text in the bottom right corner identifies the user as "@RiversideBryan" and includes a timestamp: "January 10, 2026 8:45 AM".

This image features two hooded mergansers (Lophodytes cucullatus) swimming in glistening water. The duck on the right is a male, clearly identifiable by its bold black-and-white patterns and large white crest patch. The duck on the left is a female, characterized by her more subtle, overall brownish plumage and a smaller, cinnamon-colored, backward-slanting crest. Hooded mergansers are small, North American diving ducks that use their slender, serrated bills to catch fish, crustaceans, and aquatic insects underwater. They prefer clear, shallow, and calm bodies of water surrounded by forests, as they are cavity nesters. The text overlay on the image indicates it was taken on January 8, 2026. This image features a male hooded merganser (Lophodytes cucullatus), a small, distinctive diving duck native to North America. Description Appearance: The male is strikingly patterned with a large, fan-shaped white crest on its head, outlined in black. The back is black, the chest is white, and the sides (flanks) are a rich, tawny or chestnut color with vertical black lines. It has bright yellow eyes and a thin, serrated black bill used for catching slippery prey underwater. Behavior and Habitat: Hooded mergansers are typically found in wooded lakes, ponds, and rivers, where they forage by diving to hunt for fish, crayfish, and aquatic insects. They prefer clear water where they can see their prey. In the Image: The bird is standing on a concrete edge in a body of water, with its reflection visible in the calm green water below. This image is a close-up photograph of a Muscovy duck (Cairina moschata) in the water. The duck has a body of iridescent brownish-black feathers, with white patches on its wings, which are partially visible. The most distinctive feature of the bird is its head and face, which have a unique appearance: Caruncles: The red, fleshy, warty-like skin growths around its eyes and at the base of its bill are called caruncles or a "face mask". These are more prominent in males than in females. Eyes and Bill: The duck has yellowish-brown eyes and a black bill with a pale pink speckling. Feathering: Unlike most other ducks, it has a featherless or mostly featherless face. The black feathers on its body can show a green or purple gloss when the light hits them. The duck is shown in profile, looking to the left of the frame, with reflections of pine-like foliage visible in the greenish water around it. Fluffy, brown baby muscovy duckling.

This image captures a bright, sunny outdoor scene by the edge of a body of water, likely a river or pond, on a sandy or muddy bank. Two aquatic turtles are prominently featured, partially in the shallow water and partially on the shore, where they appear to be basking in the sun. The turtle closer to the foreground is slightly larger and facing the right side of the frame, while the smaller turtle behind it is oriented towards the water. The turtles have dark carapaces (top shells) with lighter markings. One likely species is the Peninsula Cooter (Pseudemys peninsularis) which is common in Florida waterways. Basking helps turtles regulate their body temperature and can also assist in controlling algae growth on their shells. The foreground consists of wet sand and sparse green vegetation, leading into the calm, reflective blue water that occupies the upper half of the image. The lighting is strong, creating bright highlights on the turtles' shells and the water's surface. A watermark with the text "@RiversideBryan January 06, 2026 11:07 AM" is visible in the bottom right corner of the image. This image features a Florida softshell turtle (Apalone ferox) swimming in the water. The turtle is primarily aquatic and is characterized by its flattened, leathery, dark-colored shell and a long, snorkel-like snout, which it uses to breathe while submerged.
