These are dried herbs. To keep the color on them for a long time, I pick whole branches with leaves and let them hang upside down in a dark, dry place with plenty of fresh air. In the jars at the top of the picture are dried leaves, then I pick only the leaves but they fade quickly, the taste and smell remain the same. These are rosemary, sage and thyme from my garden.
HSoS!

Tovdalselva (also known as the Tofdalselva, Tovdalsåna, Tovdalsåni, literally: the Tov valley river) is 143 kilometres (89 mi) long and is one of the longest rivers in Southern Norway. The river flows through Agder county from the mountains on the northeast side of the Setesdal valley in Valle municipality southwards, until it reaches the sea at the Tofdalsfjorden between Hamresanden and Kjevik in Kristiansand. The upper reaches of the river include many lakes such as the Herefossfjorden and the Straumsfjorden (the largest lake on the river). It drains about 1,800 square kilometres (690 sq mi) in territory and the highest point in the watershed is 1,101 metres (3,612 ft) above sea level. The drainage basin includes parts or all of the following municipalities: Fyresdal, Valle, Bygland, Evje og Hornnes, Åmli, Froland, Grimstad, Birkenes, Iveland, Lillesand, and Kristiansand
For this week's Macro Monday theme. Goodness these colours are tricky!

Frost, sunshine and morning combined to create this gently Gothic scene @ Bolton Abbey, NYorks, UK :-)
As I frequently use wide-angled lenses, I feel that my shots generally benefit from viewing after pressing L :-)
To all who view and/or comment on my pix; each is a help and a pleasure in equal measure. Thank you.
DMIR 403 and 215 shove a cut of freight cars into the E Yard at Proctor Yard on June 6, 2022. The St. Louis River Road bridge is always a nice evening shot and has been populated by a few more fans lately since 403 found its way out of Canada and back to Proctor late last month. Just like last fall, the day after 403 arrived at Proctor, it was put on the E Lead Switch Soon the 403-215 were paired together and here the maroons work the 17:00 E Lead at 20:30 a week ago.
Apart from framing and signature in Paintshop this is SOOC but I am puzzled at the arcs of colour in the sky. Perhaps someone could explain that to me. In Lightroom, where which I use to I transfer from the camera, these arcs cannot be seen. I have not seen this in any of my other shots.
Ein schwieriges Thema, vieles ausprobiert und wieder entsorgt. Großes ? bis mir der fast neue Filter, den ich voreiniger Zeit erstanden habe, einfiel. Hier nun das Ergebnis!
Ich wünsche einen guten Start in die Woche, einen erfolgreichen Montag und bleibt gesund. Seid herzlich bedankt für Euren Besuch, ein Kommentar ist willkommen und ein Stern freut mich.

A difficult subject, many things tried and discarded. Big ? until I remembered the almost new filter I bought a while ago. Here is the result!
I wish you a good start into the week, a successful Monday and stay healthy. Thank you for your visit, a comment is welcome and a star makes me happy.

Un sujet difficile, essayé de nombreuses fois et rejeté à nouveau. Super ? jusqu'à ce que je pense au filtre presque neuf, que j'ai acheté il y a quelques temps. Voici maintenant le résultat !
Je vous souhaite un bon début de semaine, un lundi réussi et restez en bonne santé. Merci de votre visite, un commentaire est le bienvenu et une étoile me fait plaisir.

Female Pronghorn and her fawn on a sunny fall afternoon. Changing seasons will soon bring winter weather to Yellowstone National Park, but for now the sun is warm, food is plentiful, and life is good.

For #MacroMondays and this week's theme #Radiant
Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!

Dikirion and trikirion were introduced into church use, probably not earlier than the IV-V centuries..Dikiri and trikiri are two hand-shaped figured lamps with cells for two and for three long candles. The illumination of people by the light that marks the Light of Christ and the Holy Trinity gives them special grace and testifies to them about the Divine light coming to people for their enlightenment, purification and sanctification..Photo taken during the consecration of the church in Moscow.
Memories of Copenhagen - a beautiful town I fell in love with ;))
The circular Rundetårn (Rundetaarn / Danish for round tower) is a tower in the centre of Copenhagen, which served as a observatory of the University of Copenhagen until 1861.
It has a diameter of about 15 m and a height of 34.8 m. Apart from the last few metres, it is not climbed by stairs, but by a 209 m long spiral corridor that winds around the centre of the tower in seven and a half full turns.
This equestrian staircase made it possible to deliver books, instruments and the like by horse and carriage.
And it is said that the king he went up there comfortably by carriage, too :)

Erinnerungen an Kopenhagen - eine wunderschöne Stadt zum Verlieben ;))
Der kreisrunde Rundetårn (Rundetaarn /dänisch für Runder Turm) ist ein Turm im Stadtzentrum Kopenhagens, der bis 1861 als Observatorium der Universität Kopenhagen diente. Er besitzt einen Durchmesser von etwa 15 m und eine Höhe von 34,8 m. Bestiegen wird er, abgesehen von den letzten Metern, nicht über Treppen, sondern über einen 209 m langen, spiralförmigen Gang, der sich in siebeneinhalb vollen Drehungen um die Turmmitte windet. Diese Reittreppe ermöglichte es, Bücher, Instrumente und dergleichen per Pferdewagen anzuliefern.
Und es ist überliefert, dass König Christian IV. sich hat mit der Kutsche nach oben fahren lassen (ganz bequem - bis auf die letzten Stufen ;))
Wonderful light and lines ,with rippled reflections on the water and onto the bows of the boats.The mooring lines pulling tight and in unison,create interesting lines and diagonals inconjunction with the shapes of the boats.
Probably not the best color setting to play hide and seek.

This picture is taken on a reconnaissance trip to Stendörren Nature Reserve in Södermanland, Sweden. It is a very beautiful marine landscape consisting of several smaller islands. I can really recommend you to visit the area if you are in the vicinity.
The picture is taken with a Nikon D7200 and Sigma 10-20 f3.5 lens.

I was 5 and Tom was 6 months younger. He has cancer and is currently undergoing Kemo. I would appreciate, if you are so inclined, to remember him and me in your prayers!
Low cloud in Donard Forest. This is the start of the Mourne Mountains in Newcastle, County Down, Northern Ireland.
Tree and Moon reflection over the Providence river at Conimicut Point Park in Warwick, Rhode Island.
Leaves and trees, birds and flowers, butterflies, lakes and rivers these are a few of my "favorite things" to photograph!
Since this week the weather doesn't show a sing of improvement in this area of PA, I'm choosing this one that I took last November. I like the shadows and soft tones that the camera captured on this one.
It was early in the morning, and the light was soft and perfect, a little cold but I was wearing warm boots and everything else for the long hike. Canada geese were all over the place, which from time to time surprised me with the noise they make with their wings. Deer also were trying to find something to eat close by. Some leaves were laying on the ground, still frozen before the sun warmed them later that day...
Have a great day everyone:

Photography is my passion, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I'm in many groups, and I only add my photos to them if they are not private.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!

. . . the cover for "Facing Forward!" And the book is in the mail :-)
I've arranged the set, "The Sketchbook Project 2011" in the order of appearance in the book, random though that may be!
Macro Mondays - Small and Smaller
The one on the left is a conical spring (3.5cm).....they are basically compression springs coiled in increasing or decreasing outer diameters thus making its shape a cone or tapered one. These springs tend to reduce solid height and provide stability. Conical springs are also known as tapered springs or cone springs.
The smaller one on the right is a helical spring (1.2cm) - these are the most common types of springs in product manufacturing. Wire coiled into a helix shape (hence the name) with different cross-sections can make helical springs.
