After the sunset with a clear sky over the mountains and the purple hues tinge the clouds covering the lowlands to the right, this is my favourite panorama to date! This is the picture I have been holding back for! www.glensumnerphotography.com

Trieste is a city and seaport in northeastern Italy. It is situated towards the end of a narrow strip of land lying between the Adriatic Sea and Italy's border with Slovenia, which lies almost immediately south and east of the city. Trieste is located at the head of the Gulf of Trieste and throughout history it has been influenced by its location at the crossroads of Germanic, Latin and Slavic cultures. In 2009, it had a population of about 205,000 and it is the capital of the autonomous region Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trieste province.
Trieste was one of the oldest parts of the Habsburg Monarchy from 1382 until 1918. In the 19th century, it was the most important port of one of the Great Powers of Europe. As a prosperous seaport in the Mediterranean region, Trieste became the fourth largest city of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (after Vienna, Budapest, and Prague). In the fin-de-siecle period, it emerged as an important hub for literature and music. However, the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Trieste's union to Italy after World War I led to some decline of its "Mittel-European" cultural and commercial importance. Enjoying an economic revival during the 1930s and throughout the Cold War, Trieste was an important spot in the struggle between the Eastern and Western blocs. Today, the city is in one of the richest regions of Italy, and has been a great centre for shipping, through its port (Port of Trieste), shipbuilding and financial services.

Would have liked the coot closer to the camera but also didn't want to lose the lovely pond surroundings & the reflections by focusing in too close so the coot had to stay distant:)
Enjoy a lovely weekend everyone & for those of you struggling with the heat, stay as cool as this coot!
Preparing the fields for the next crop. Scavenging gulls descend to cash in on the bounty that the plough produces.
The blue Peacock (pavo cristatus) is a species of bird in the family of Phasianidae (Phasianidae). It belongs to the order of Galliformes and the pheasant and the House chicken is one of the best known representatives of this bird group is.
Due to its striking appearance, especially the males are considered the oldest ornamental birds in the people. In the legends of ancient Greece they were mentioned. As site-loyal birds, the animals originally in India and Sri Lanka are held today around the world as pets.

La extensión del municipio es de 23,21 km², por lo que la densidad poblacional es de 62,34 hab./km²

También se conocía en castellano como Valle de Achondo.
Ubicación y accesos
Se sitúa en el extremo sudeste de la provincia y de la comarca, en el límite con Álava. Ocupa la zona más accidentada, desde las orillas del río Ibaizábal, que se forma aquí al recibir el río Zumelegi, procedente de Elorrio, el Arrazola o Txareta, hasta las cumbres de la sierra de Amboto (1.296 msnm). La pared caliza que forman estos montes, que por este lado es muy abrupta con desniveles de más de 600 m, hace de telón de fondo a todo el municipio y le da el nombre.
Achondo limita con los siguientes municipios: al norte con Abadiano y Elorrio; al sur Aramayona (Álava); al este con Elorrio y al oeste con Abadiano.
Que tengas todos y todas un fantastico Martes de nubes

Took this the other night on the way home from work. i previously took a similar photo a few years ago. its amazing what has changed in so much little time.
In winter, the rice terraces are free from plants, so that the light often reflected in various colors of the sky. When we arrived at the viewpoint pulled fog over the rice fields, but towards the afternoon (as in the picture) the fog lifted .
I think it is a hard work to plant all this fields with rice. With machines may not be working there. The non- water-filled terraces are usually planted with potatoes .
Im Winter sind die Reisterrassen frei von Pflanzen, so dass sich das Licht oft in verschiedenen Farben des Himmels spiegelt. Als wir am Aussichtspunkt ankamen zog Nebel über die Reisfelder, der sich aber zum Nachmittag hin (wie auf dem Bild) lichtete.
Ich denke, es ist ein hartes Stück Arbeit, die vielen Felder mit Reis zu bepflanzen. Mit Maschinen geht dort überhaupt nichts. Die nicht mit Wasser gefüllten Terrassen werden meist mit Kartoffeln bepflanzt.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!
