This shot has been taken in Manarola during the blue hour, the temperature was around five degres and the waves were pretty high in the sea. The town is almost desert during winter, but always a beautiful subject to photograph.
mossy rocks by a frozen lake, it is midday and the sun peers again in the forest, we are on our way back to the light.../Ett nytt år, mossiga stenar vid Lafssjön, solen lyser åter i skogen, sakteligen färdas vi mot ljuset.../Año nuevo! Rocas cubiertas de musgos en la orilla de un lago helado, es mediodía y el sol asoma nuevamente en el bosque, iniciamos el retorno hacia la luz...(068-2)

Thanks so much all My Flickr Friends The Comments & Faves..... ;-)
An oldie re-posted just because.
This lakeside park makes me think of that Rush song. Are there any other Rush fans out there? Surely there must be amongst our Canadian friends. Saw them on their R40 tour in Denver of all places in 2015. Lifelong dream achieved. Anyway, I digress. Park + lake + sunset + bench = peace and relaxation.
Happy nearly Friday :)
The Soviet submarine K-24 (B-124), yard number 511, is a maritime museum exhibit in Peenemünde under the f@ke name of "U-461".
The bright orange DSRV (deep-submergence rescue vehicle) mounted near the bow is a dummy as well.
K-24 is a projekt 651 submarine, NATO reporting name of this class was Juliett-class. The projekt 651 boats were the largest diesel-electric submarines ever build.
Primary armament were four SS-N-3 Shaddock (P-5 or P-6), or later the SS-N-12 Sandbox (P-500 4K-80 Basalt) nuclear-capable cruise missiles, main target were aircraft carrier battle groups.
Secondary armament were 6x 533 mm bow torpedo tubes with 18 torpedoes and 4x 400 mm stern torpedo tubes with 4 torpedoes.

Evening view from Brooklyn across the East River to the Brooklyn Bridge. The illuminated skyline of Lower Manhattan can be seen in the background.
Since September 2011, this view looks a little different and shows the restored historic wooden carousel "Jane's Carousel" in a protective glass pavilion at the foot of the bridge.
A little later, One World Trade Center was completed, adding to the Manhattan skyline in an impressive way.
So it is worthwhile for me to take another photo tour in NY...

Hamnøy is a small fishing village in the municipality of Moskenes in Nordland county, Norway. It is located on the eastern side of Moskenesøya, about 1.5 kilometres northeast of Reine, along the Vestfjorden (Source: Wikipedia)
Perhaps the world’s longest covered walkway, this winding 666 vault arcade is almost four kilometres long going from downtown Bologna to the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca.

Also called the Drei Zinnen as up until 1919, they formed part of the border between Italy and Austria. There are many reasons this is a very popular hike around the three peaks reaching 2,999 metres at the highest point.

5 km after the bridge over the Río Hermoso, we arrive at this lake with its dark blue waters, where it is possible to practice water sports such as kayaking or canoeing.
A natural lookout also offers a beautiful panoramic view.
SPILIMBERGO
LA CHIESETTA DELL'ANCONA
Scendendo dalla Piazza del Duomo verso il Tagliamento, si trova a metà costa, la Chiesetta dell’Ancona.
Il titolo originario della chiesa, legato alla tradizione, è quella di Santa Sabbata (santa Sabida), una santa inesistente riconducibile a culti precristiani, legati ai corsi dei fiumi. Già nel 1597, però, l'Ancona viene dedicata alla Madonna della Mercede (venerata il 24 settembre) pregata come protettrice dalle insidie del guado del Tagliamento.
Oggi la chiesa, molto semplice e sobria, poggia su una pianta regolare e si presenta con un'unica aula. Esternamente è possibile ammirare un grazioso portichetto sorretto da cinque colonne e a metà dei lato sinistro si innalza il campanile. All'interno si trova un altare in marmi policromi e un affresco di fine Quattrocento raffigurante la Madonna con Bambino e due angíoletti.
In questo luogo si incontravano dunque mercanti e pellegrini, poiché sorgeva su un passaggio obbligato per attraversare il guado del Tagliamento, dopo aver pagato un dazio, raggiungere poi Gemona, Venzone e proseguire verso le Germanie.
Per coloro che entravano a Spilimbergo attraversato il guado, era il tempio dove pregare la Madonna per la protezione accordata e lo scampo dai pericoli, allora frequenti: perdita dei carico, ferite, annegamenti.
E' per questo motivo che qui venivano deposti gli ex voto, tavolette dipinte di gusto popolare, forma di ringraziamento e di devozione (ora raccolti e conservati nell'archivio parrocchiale).
Era dunque un punto d'incontro, di scambi commerciali e di preghiera.
Nel 1687 l'Ancona venne ampliata con una loggia, al fine di ospitare il numero sempre più grande di fedeli, che si riunivano.
Successivamente venne restaurata e ampliata più volte fino al 1968, quando venne inaugurata; nel 1976 venne distrutta dal terremoto e finalmente nel 1978 riacquistò l'antico splendore.
Per la sua bellezza e la sua posizione panoramica sul Tagliamento, l'Ancona è per antonomasia considerata a livello locale la chiesetta degli innamorati.

The two ducks didn't move for a while. It was a moment of serenity that happily did last for quite a while. Long enough to enjoy the moment. There was a ground mist and the sun tried to come through. But the whole world stayed far away for a moment. Purmerland, 2019.
Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!
Al llegar la tarde los últimos rayos de luz acarician las piedras, el efímero volumen desaparece y la noche llega. Perfecto atardecer en los campos del sur de Badajoz, colores especiales tanto en el pasto como en el cielo, luces mágicas que te envuelven, y un mundo entero para soñar. Lugar perfecto donde perderte para encontrarte a ti mismo.
Muchas gracias a tod@s, que tengáis una buena semana :D
Thanks a lot for all, have a nice week!! :D

As DBS Tug 60100 disappears towards Lostock Works in Northwich on this placid wintry afternoon, it's hard not to reflect on whether this may be one of the last times we see them down this way given the rumoured mothballing of these fine machines.
Or maybe it's a mere dream .........?

Frühherbstliche Stimmung in den Weinbergen im Markgräflerland-
die Ölbergkappelle dort ist immer ein schöner Anblick und auch
bei leichtem Dunst ein erstrebenswertes Wanderziel.

Walking in the vineyards in the 'Markgräflerland'.
After a rainy period there are finally some hazy but lovely days.
In the hazy background: the foothills of the Black Forest and Castle Hill Staufen.

Herbsttag
von Rainer Maria Rilke
Herr: es ist Zeit. Der Sommer war sehr groß.
Leg deinen Schatten auf die Sonnenuhren,
und auf den Fluren laß die Winde los.
Befiehl den letzten Früchten voll zu sein;
gib ihnen noch zwei südlichere Tage,
dränge sie zur Vollendung hin und jage
die letzte Süße in den schweren Wein.
Wer jetzt kein Haus hat, baut sich keines mehr.
Wer jetzt allein ist, wird es lange bleiben,
wird wachen, lesen, lange Briefe schreiben
und wird in den Alleen hin und her
unruhig wandern, wenn die Blätter treiben.

Rainer Maria Rilke: Das Buch der Bilder.

Back to my trip up to St Cyrus at the weekend for this shot. The whole scene was every bit as tranquial as this image suggests.
You can see the rock formation and cottage in my earlier post on the left hand side of this.
The Laugavegur is a famous trekking route in South-West Iceland from the hot springs area of Landmannalaugar to the glacial valley of Þórsmörk . It is noted for the wide variety of landscapes on its 55 km (34 mi) path. The route is typically completed over 2–4 days with potential stops at the mountain huts at Hrafntinnusker, Álftavatn, Hvanngil and Emstrur. An ultramarathon is held on the route each July. It is possible to combine the trek with the Fimmvörðuháls route which goes over the pass from Þórsmörk to Skógar for an additional one or two days or an additional 25 km (16 mi). Landmannalaugar, Þórsmörk, and Skógar are all reachable by bus during the summer. A bus from Hella connects with Álftavatn once a day during the summer.
