What should I say, my dear friends - I had 5 wonderful sunsets and 5 sunrises on my short trip from Las Vegas to California and back - and each of them was so beautiful and special to me...and I am so thankful that I could watch this all. And I am also very pleased by your great comments - that is a bit as if you would have accompanied me on my trip - many many thanks!!
I took this photo during my second visit of Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes on my way back to Las Vegas...and it was...see by your selves...
- at 5 am...originally alt home I wanted to go there to start with taking pictures of the stars - but that was definitely the wrong time - it was fullmoon :-) so I switched from stars to moon...I walked about a mile to reach the first dunes - nobody there - no footprint at all - pure virgin nature - and because of the full moon I didn't even need my headlamp. It was so beautiful and I tried to avoid making unnecessary footprints...it felt as if I would destroy this beauty and so I took care as much as I could. The dunes here were not high, maybe up to 20 feet but that really didn't matter - the ripples and textures in the light and shadow of the moon just flashed me...and if you zoom in you also can see some stars :-)
Was soll ich sagen, meine lieben Freunde - ich hatte 5 wundervolle Sonnenaufgänge und 5 wundervolle Sonnenuntergänge auf meiner kurzen Tour von Las Vegas nach Kalifornien und zurück - und jeder einzelne davon war wunderschön und ganz einzigartig für mich - und ich bin so dankbar dafür, dass ich das alles sehen konnte. Und ich freue mich umso mehr über Eure tollen Kommentare...das ist ein wenig so, als hättet Ihr mich auf meiner Tour begleitet...ganz herzlichen Dank dafür!
Ich habe dieses Foto während meines zweiten Besuchs von Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes auf meinem Weg zurück nach Las Vegas gemacht ... und es war ... seht selbst ...
- um 5 Uhr in der Früh ... ursprünglich, daheim, wollte ich dorthin, um vor dem Sonnenaufgang die Sterne zu fotografieren - aber das war definitiv die falsche Zeit - es war Vollmond :-) also wechselte ich von Sternen zu Mond ... Ich ging etwa eine Meile, um die ersten Dünen zu erreichen - niemand dort - überhaupt keinen Fußabdruck - reine unberührte Natur - und wegen des Vollmonds brauchte ich nicht einmal meine Stirnlampe. Es war so schön und ich versuchte unnötige Fußspuren zu vermeiden ... es fühlte sich so an, als würde ich diese Schönheit zerstören und so passte ich auf, so gut ich konnte. Die Dünen hier waren nicht hoch, vielleicht bis zu 5-6 Meter, aber das war wirklich egal - die Wellen und Texturen im Licht und Schatten des Mondes hatten mich in ihren Bann gezogen ...und wenn ihr reinzoomt, dann könnt ihr auch noch ein paar Sterne sehen :-)

Autumn.
This landscape was until October 24 and then winter was coming in southern Finland: 20 cm snow, freezing wind... I hate this weather. It's colder than usual for this time of year. Fortunately, today it's +6C and the snow melted in Helsinki. But it's raining now and gloomy weather.

The original wooden church.
The church was burned by Swedes in 1581, restored in 1582. A new wooden one-domed church with a detached bell tower was built in 1630, a new warm part with side-chapels was built up in 1874.

Fortune-telling on a daisy...
You can probably remember picking the petals off a daisy at some point and reciting the popular words: “He loves me, he loves me not” (or she). Daisies in general are known to represent innocence, loyal love and simplicity.
Summer colors. Finland.

Field of dreams. The yellow season in Finland. Summer.
A very relaxing way to spend an afternoon.
Field of Yellow Rapeseed in Finland.
Rapeseed is used for animal feed, plus it is cultivated for its seed (rapeseed oil) that is then used as a vegetable oil in cooking.

Dynamic Paris at sunset.
Canon DPP stripped off the exif while merging the hdr files, so I made another HDR fusion and blent with the one you are seeing now.
I couldn't help myself to push the colors button and brought the details of the lights in every corner and at the same time I tried to treat the sky and water in a harmonious way possible.
Hope you like it!
I'm not going to kill everyone's mood with the King of Leon song below, I just find it beautiful.

Bajada Loop, Saguaro National Park, Arizona
What surprised me during my first visit to the Sonoran desert in southern Arizona was how green it was compared to the Mojave desert in southern California.
Here on the left are the iconic saguaro cacti, found only in the Sonoran desert. Most of these are relatively mature saguaros with arms, although there is short, armless younger saguaro in the foreground.
An ocotillo (pronounced o-kuh-TEE-yo) dominates the center with its slender, whiplike, thorny branches. Whenever it rains enough, the ocotillos grow small leaves and red flowers, both of which then drop off as the memory of that rain fades. An ocotillo can go through several of these deciduous cycles during a year, depending on rain patterns.
Smaller cacti in this image include prickly pear with their flat round, thorny pads and buckthorn cholla (pronounced CHOY-yuh) with their cylindical thorny segments.
It was raining heavily, when we reached the Fjord and saw the wreck of the fishing ship. Mjóifjörður, Iceland, 2015.
There is Orion Nebula in the photo. Sorry for the small defocus. But in my opinion the beauty is not spoiled ;-)

"Season Of Stillness" Guggenheim Museum Bilbao
You will notice the Romanesque vault in transversal cradles and its arches with double roller and 2 colors. It is an almost unique case in Burgundy, only the rural church of Mont Saint-Vincent has a similar architecture.

On remarquera la voute romane en berceaux transversaux, avec des arcs à double rouleau et à 2 couleurs. C'est un cas presque unique en Bourgogne, seule l'église rurale de Mont-Saint-Vincent possède une architecture semblable.

This crisp and clear shot from the interior of the National Museum of Ireland from Lawrence for today. Four striking pieces of artillery tastefully arrayed among classical sculptures in a round room make for a beautiful display!
With thanks for everyone's inputs today, it is confirmed that French captured this image across the way at our neighbour's rotunda, in the National Museum of Ireland. Sharon.corbet advises that these cannon were captured at the Battles of Sobraon or Mahrajpore during the Anglo-Sikh Wars. While no longer displayed like this at the NMI Kildare St museum, Sharon tells us that one sits within the NMI Collins Barracks collection, and two others at McKee barracks near Phoenix Park....

So much has changed and so little has changed! This shot of Dame St. in Dublins city centre is still recognisable today despite perhaps 100 years that have elapsed. Mr. French must have obtained access to a building on Palace St. to get such a Point of View. There is much in this image to help date it?
And indeed with initial input from [https://www.flickr.com/photos/gnmcauley] and [https://www.flickr.com/photos/beachcomberaustralia], the date was confirmed to be before 1900 (based on the horse-drawn trams and street lighting). Carol Maddock was then able to refine further, using the notice about the opéra comique named Olivette which was seemingly playing at the Theatre Royal in June 1898. Helping refine the date to the summer of 1898. At 3:40 in the afternoon :)
Photographer: Robert French
Collection: Lawrence Photograph Collection
Date: Catalogue range c.1865-1914. Likely c.1898 per comments and description
