“La tropilla entablada es una antigua habilidad criolla ingeniada por el gaucho frente al desamparo del desierto, al que debía cruzar a caballo durante días y días. Tener reunida la tropilla y cambiar caballo sin contar con un corral -o sustituto- era una de las dificultades de esa vida errabunda. Aun cuando el desierto llegó a poblarse, tener a mano una tropilla, agarrar caballo y ensillar en pleno campo es, hasta hoy, un trastorno insoluble. De aquí que la tropilla agrupada por el instinto animal y la hábil paciencia del resero, especialmente, continúe siendo un recurso indispensable...”

From November to December it is the season of sunflower blooming. Not far from Bangkok, there is lots of sunflower fields blooming alomst the same time.
Driving and expecting so we found the first sunflower field was so beautiful and stunning with cheerful yellow field, mountain background and lively elephants and people.
As blooming time is not long so it is golden time too. Those elephants added so much the joy in the field. They walk happily in the field. Thai people are familiar with elephant.
The elephant I sat on is 20 years old female elephant called "ลมโชย" or "Breezing Wind". She walked and stopped here and there several times to grasp grass for eating. We was happy as she was happy walking carrying three of us and one owner of hers. We fed her with sugarcane some minutes before we decided to have elephant walk with her. So she may remembered us. The owner didn't push her to walk faster though he could earn more money. I asked why and the owner said let her be happy.. and I was so happy to hear that, otherwise I could pay more for more time.
It was bright day, sunny with cloud shadow so the weather was all day comfortable.
I heard happy talks and saw happy smiles all around in those happy colors of flowery field.. Just another one fine day.
(added)
There is a small road withiin the field so people and elephant could walk without flattening the flowers..There is a temporary tower using as platform for elephant onbard : )))) so we can took location like this but Ithis shot actually took when I was sitting on elephant.. when she walked the world just incline in each step so photo comes like that...

Please take a look at my interview with my flickr friend:

Venice (Italian: Venezia [veˈnɛttsja] ( listen), Venetian: Venesia) is a city in northern Italy known both for tourism and for industry, and is the capital of the region Veneto, with a population of about 272,000 (census estimate 1 January 2004). Together with Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area (population 1,600,000).
The name is derived from the ancient tribe of Veneti that inhabited the region in Roman times.[1][2] The city historically was the capital of an independent city-state. Venice has been known as the "La Dominante", "Serenissima", "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Masks", "City of Bridges", "The Floating City", and "City of Canals". Luigi Barzini, writing in The New York Times, described it as "undoubtedly the most beautiful city built by man".[3] Venice has also been described by the Times Online as being one of Europe's most romantic cities.[4]
The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune of Venezia; around 60,000[5] in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico); 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), mostly in the large frazioni of Mestre and Marghera; and 31,000 live on other islands in the lagoon.
The Republic of Venice was a major maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as a very important center of commerce (especially silk, grain and spice trade) and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century. This made Venice a wealthy city throughout most of its history.[6] It is also known for its several important artistic movements, especially the Renaissance period. Venice has played an important role in the history of symphonic and operatic music, and it is the birthplace of Antonio Vivaldi.

Uno de mis primeros trabajos con flores en modo macro. Utilizé un tele y
una abertura de diafragma grande, para desenfocar el fondo, y dar interés
en el primer plano.
Esta imagen me inspiró en la creación de mi primer grupo de flores:

As much as I love shooting with my Pentax K10D it isn't practical to carry to/from work everyday given that its a full-sized semi-pro dSLR camera. So bought a tiny Canon IXY 910IS digital camera as my cameraphone, while handy, doesn't quite cut it as a serious camera for shots around Tokyo.
Non-HDR 1xp shot taken from the 36th floor of the ANA hotel, shortly after drinks with some co-workers, looking towards the Tokyo Midtown development on the right and Roppongi Hills on the left (where my earlier shot of the Tokyo Nightscape was taken).

The internationally famous island of Sipadan lies five degrees north of the equator in the Sulawesi Sea. Lying 35km south of Semporna, on Sabah's mainland, like many tropical island it is thickly forested and surrounded by sandy beaches. Sipadan is an oceanic island and was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct undersea volcano, which rises 600m from the seabed.
國際著名的西巴丹島是5度赤道以北的蘇拉威西海。躺在三五公里南部仙本那，在沙巴州的內地，像許多熱帶島嶼是茂密森林所環繞的沙灘。西巴丹島是一個大洋島和珊瑚形成的生活越來越頂部的一個滅絕的海底火山，其中上升到600米的海底。
Sipadan adalah satu-satunya kelautan pulau di Malaysia, naik 600 m dari dasar laut. It is Celebes di Laut, di sebelah timur kota Tawau dan mematikan pantai timur Malaysia. Ia dibentuk oleh karang hidup tumbuh di atas sebuah gunung berapi kerucut punah, dan menghabiskan waktu ribuan tahun untuk dikembangkan. Sipadan terletak di jantung kota di Indo-Pasifik kumba, pusat salah satu habitat laut terkaya di dunia. Lebih dari 3.000 spesies ikan dan ratusan spesies karang telah diklasifikasikan dalam ekosistem ini

365 Project Day 15
A Flickrmeet at Chatsworth House. Arrived early and had a wander through the estate and met up with some cows. Jon Bradbury can be seen in the background photographing his model ;)
I did get my lens licked while taking these photos and it steamed up a few times when they breathed out on it - they need to be very close to get this kind of wide angle distortion.
not sure that those stairways goes to heaven....
A great week-end to all :-)

"Expressão entardecida
nos seus invernos finais
qual um velho cinamomo
arrancado do seu chão
onde deixou os sinais
das bem cravadas raízes
e a seiva melhor do lenho
na paisagem do galpão..."

“Athens, the eye of Greece, mother of arts / And eloquence.”
(John Milton).
I haven't been around much lately cause I am busy with my studies but here is a shot of my recent trip to Athens!! I'll be back soon!! ;)
You can see some of my previous shots from Athens here:
The Parthenon here and here, Hepheastus temple here, Zappeio Hall here, Stoa Attalou here, Olympeion here, and the Erechtheum, which is one of my most popular shots and the one with the most views, here.
De Haan - West Flanders - Belgium.
This coastal resort has maintained a low skyline so its many villas in ' Belle Epoque' ( french-beautiful age) delights the eye.
Even today there are no high-rise buildings here.
Its most famous resident was Albert Einstein who lived there in 1933.
Population 11,900.
Many grateful thanks to all my contacts , friends & all flickr members for their continued support , that this image has made Explore. Truly appreciated. So, thanks to ALL . Thank You EVERYONE .
Ecco come mi si è presentato il cratere di Sud-Est la mattina del 16 novembre 2006. Una serie continua di forti esplosioni hanno portato al collasso del fianco orientale del cratere. La lava si andava a riversare verso la Valle del Bove passando per la depressione appena creatasi formando delle vere e proprie cascate.
This is how the south east crater appeared on the 16th november 2006. Due to the strong explosions the eastern flank of the crater collapsed letting the lava flows go toward the Bove Valley. On its route to the valley the lava flows created some rapids.

My Website:
Era la Noche de los Museos, una larga Noche de Arte y Encuentros... Imposible dejar de ir...
Y fuimos, como siempre, cámara en mano, con ganas de hacer nuevos descubrimientos.
Mucha concurrencia, los Museos llenos, la gente alborotada...
Y no podíamos dejar de pasar... Caminito... nos llamaba. ¡Caminito de Noche!!!
Y así la encontré... y la tomé... sin trípode... sin pulso... y sabiendo que no iba a salir muy bien...
Pero valió la pena encontrar rectas, curvas, figuras geométricas, luces, sombras... y el famoso gato de Caminito.
¡A empezar la semana a todo color!!! ¡Un abrazo a todos!
Abbiamo perso anche questo crepuscolo.
Nessuno ci ha visto stasera mano nella mano
mentre la notte azzurra cadeva sul mondo.
Ho visto dalla mia finestra
la festa del tramonto sui monti lontani.
A volte, come una moneta
mi si accendeva un pezzo di sole tra le mani.
Io ti ricordavo con l'anima oppressa
da quella tristezza che tu mi conosci.
Dove eri allora?
Tra quali genti?
Dicendo quali parole?
Perchè mi investirà tutto l'amore di colpo
quando mi sento triste e ti sento lontana?
E' caduto il libro che sempre si prende al crepuscolo
e come cane ferito il mantello mi si è accucciato tra i piedi.
Sempre, sempre ti allontani la sera
e vai dove il crepuscolo corre cancellando statue.
Pablo Neruda
