I tried to be different by taking a previous POV and "framing" it. The sky reminds me of the famous scene from "Independence Day". Anyway, I hope you like it!

Wat Mahathat es, sin duda, uno de los templos más importantes del reino de Ayutthaya, un importante centro religioso muy cercano al Gran Palacio. Una gran torre en forma de aguja es el edificio principal. Este templo tiene la particularidad de adoptar el estilo de Ayutthaya, el estilo khmer típico de Camboya.
Uno de los elementos más curiosos de este templo es "el Buda en las raíces", que según la tradición, cuando las tropas Birmanas entraron en Tailandia, y llegaron hasta Ayutthaya (que fue la capital hasta 1767) decapitaron a los budas de los templos por los que pasaban, una de las cabezas decapitadas de Buda cayó a los pies de un gran árbol y este la protegió con sus raíces.
Yesterday after sunset, the sky on the Moselle colored in delicately tender pink tones.
In the picture the wine-growing community Lieser near Bernkastel-Kues with the newly renovated Castle Lieser, which will soon open after extensive renovation as first class hotel.
Gestern nach Sonnenuntergang färbte sich der Himmel an der Mosel in herrlich zarten Rose´-Tönen.

Lübeck is a city in Schleswig-Holstein, Northern Germany, and one of the major ports of Germany. On the river Trave, it was the leading city of the Hanseatic League, and because of its extensive Brick Gothic architecture is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The old part of Lübeck is on an island enclosed by the Trave.

Enjoying some solitude at the punch bowl waterfall. I'm sure later in the day this place was crawling with people. But early in the morning, I had it all to myself.
Okay, it's not actually within our backyard, but it's just beyond it. The yard behind our house borders a large park that is just being developed. The park was recently seeded, and the straw was put down as mulch. I took this shot while standing on our backyard deck. I think these Sandhill Cranes must have been eating the grass seed.
I know that there's not a lot going on in this image. But I rather like the repetitive poses of the birds, and I thought it was kind of cool that I could get this shot without leaving home, so I decided to go with it. The abundance of Sandhill Cranes in the area near our new home in Michigan has been one of the pleasant surprises of living here.

This Puffin had obviously had a very successful fishing trip. Then it had to run the guantlet of the Gulls trying to take its catch before getting to the safety of its burrow.

The Portico of San Luca is one of the longest arcades in the world. The arcade is 3.5 km long and has 666 arcades. It connects the Porta Saragozza with the San Luca Sanctuary, on Colle della Guardia. The Sanctuary was meant to house a miraculous icon of the virgin. The arcade was meant to protect the icon as it was paraded up the hill. A yearly procession proceed from the church of San Pietro in the center of Bologna to the Sanctuary along this path. Originally the arches held icons or chapels erected by the patron family.
