Back to my Iceland shots, as I've not had much time to go out with my camera this week. I just loved the colour of the sky this particular morning!
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain"
Pas toujours facile à mettre en pratique !
Bonne journée 😅 Nice day to all of you !
...come out soon.
There is hardly a better place in my area to enjoy a perfect Autumn day than the open-air -museum in Detmold. We spent a whole day in beautiful sunshine without a cloud in this lovely location.
The LWL-Freilichtmuseum in Detmold is a great place to learn and experience the world of our ancestors. The open-air-museum is covered with buildings, tools, animals and plants of countryside life in Northwest Germany in the last couple of centuries. An endless source of inspiration for HDR photography.
La iglesia de Santa María La Mayor de Villacantid constituye un destacado ejemplo de arquitectura religiosa de estilo románico en el sur de Cantabria. el estilo de los templos de Cervatos, Elines y Retortillo, además recibe la influencia del románico del norte de la provincia de Palencia.
Es un extraño ejemplar, un templo "contorsionista", que se ha doblado sobre si hasta unir la portada con el ábside. Este extraño aspecto, es producto de las reformas sufridas en el s.XVII.
Parece que, avanzado el s.XIII, se eliminó la nave única, románica, y en su lugar se proyectaron tres naves, aunque se conservó la cabecera. Se alzó la nave norte, pero la sur quedó inconclusa, hasta que al comienzo del s.XVII se reformó la nave del evangelio y se añadió la parte inacabada de la epístola, en cuyo muro de levante se recolocó, pegada al ábside, la portada románica que antes estaba al costado meridional.
El resultado es un ejemplar único.
Oslo Opera House. We had great days in Oslo and enjoyed the city, museums and architecture. The low light of December days in Scandinavia is a challenge for every photographer.
Looking up at the corner of Wacker Avenue and Franklin Street in Chicago's Loop, the elliptical shaped building on the left is the Hyatt Center. The building in the middle, located one block back, is the Franklin Center and the building on the right is 111 South Wacker.

Il est 6h15, le soleil se lève à peine, et pour que certains puissent partir en vacances, d'autres sont déjà au travail depuis longtemps ! J'ai toujours une pensée pour eux.
Je reviens sur le site dans quelques jours. Bon week-end à ceux qui ne sont pas absents !
It's 6.15 a.m. Many people are already at work to make possible other people travell towards their vacation place ! I always have a thought for them.
I'll be back on flickr in a couple of days. Happy week-end to those who are here !

This was the first time I had driven down to the beach in Long Beach, Washington state. The town, itself, is a lot of fun...a lot of fun little shops and restaurants...a very nice place to spend an afternoon. Then we drove down to the actual beach at sunset (one of my favorite things to do!) I love how there were several layers of land and sea...pretty cool! Hope you enjoy!

Just after sun rise, after a clear night, with mist forming across the autumn countryside. Looking East from Bringsty Common, near Bromyard, in Herefordshire.

Autumn just doesn't last long enough.....
Happy Friday!
Pardon pour le flou, mais photographier une coccinelle "sauvage" au décollage, ce n'est pas évident.
De nombreux photographes enferment des insectes dans de petites boîtes après y avoir recréé un biotope afin de les photographier plus facilement.
Ce n'est pas le cas de celle-ci, observée en pleine nature 😊
Athabasca Falls in September when the flow is low. This falls is not known so much for the height of the falls (76 feet, 23 metres), as it is known for its force due to the large quantity of water falling into the gorge. Can be tough to get a shot from this spot in the Spring. Lots of misty and spray.
Another must stop along the Icefields Parkway, which is in view on the other side of the river.

Many thanks for taking a look!

Thank you for brightening my days with your beautiful images and kind comments. You are the gift that keeps on giving.
Much appreciated!
The soft beams of light seem so perfect for this remote paradise. Life slows to a crawl and one doesn't seem to have a care in the world. The Seychelles are indeed remote and La Digue where this was taken is even further away from the rest of the world.
I don't want you to get too bored with Venice or Africa and the Indian Ocean so I will continue to mix them up.

From a geological standpoint, Iceland is a very young country, still in the midst of its own creation. Shaped by the forces of nature, the, barren landscapes demonstrate the creativity powers of the four basic elements—earth, air, fire, and water—in a dramatic way. Active volcanoes, bright green valleys, glacier-cut fjords, black sand beaches, and roaring rivers are the most distinctive features of the Icelandic landscape. And although they are very accessible, they still remain virtually untouched by human civilization. In a fast-paced world of sprawling development, Iceland's pure nature and empty expanses stand out as a luxury.
Despite the name, “ice” only covers about 10% of the land, but still represents the largest glaciers left in Europe. It represents a source of pure water and symbolizes the purity of Icelandic
While walking the canyon rim, I couldn't help myself enough to the amazing view, the intricate geological details and random shading provided by the high clouds. As I walked my angle to the scene before me changed, all the players are the same but have now slowly moved into different positions. So fascinating to me that on several occasions I stumbled on the trail because I couldn't look away. What an amazing wonderland of textures and details chiseled away over eons making up the "Grand Canyon". I've heard that the view from the North Rim is even more spectacular than this view from the South Rim. Next time I'm on my way to the southwest I will have to stop by there and see for myself. Sitting here taking in the view I decided to break out the 70-200mm and shoot some close-ups. :)
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! Have a great Thursday!! :)
