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.

Calgary - Alberta
Canada
Designed by Santiago Calatrava
The bridge was built by The City of Calgary to connect the southern Bow River pathway and Downtown Calgary with the northern Bow River pathway and the community of Sunnyside. This connection was designed to accommodate the increasing number of people commuting to and from work and those utilizing Calgary's pathways.
I was fascinated by the Peace Bridge and because my hotel was right behind the Shaw building I could go there anytime I wanted...:-))

Le lac de Montriond se trouve en Haute-Savoie sur la commune de Montriond, dans le Chablais français. Le lac est fréquenté par les pêcheurs et surtout par les promeneurs et randonneurs.
Le lac de Montriond est né suite à l'éboulement d'une partie de la montagne de Nantaux au Nord Ouest. Cet événement géologique non daté avec certitude (de 4500 ans à 3 ou 4 siècles !) a provoqué un barrage sur le torrent qui courait au fond de la vallée, d'où la formation du lac.
Lac de Montriond is located in the commune of Montriond in the French Chablais region of Haute-Savoie. The lake is popular with anglers and, above all, with walkers and hikers.
Lake Montriond was created when part of the Nantaux mountain to the north-west collapsed. This geological event, which has not been dated with any certainty (between 4,500 years and 3 or 4 centuries!), caused a dam to form on the torrent that ran along the bottom of the valley, hence the formation of the lake.
PRINCIPALITY OF LUCEDIO or ABBEY OF SANTA MARIA DI LUCEDIO. It was founded in 1123 by Cistercian monks who reclaimed the marshy and wooded land and began the Italian rice cultivation. Trino Vercellese, Piedmont, ITALY.

Walking by the lake early this morning, I noticed that at this spot the horizon line, the direction of the clouds as well as their reflection on the water and the road, seemed to converge on the latter's bend. Converging lines, converging fates ...
Have a wonderful weekend my friends and thank you all for your kind visits, comments and faves.

... of one of the earliest tulips / Tulpen (Tulipa)
at the end of March in our garden - Frankfurt-Nordend
If you love tulips, have a look at my personal Tulip Collection.

It is dedicated to the collection, research, preservation and display of works of art, objects and artifacts of artistic, cultural and historical significance from various periods and geographic areas of the Muslim world
This is the old building at the edge of Benmore Gardens. Currently it houses the administrative offices and the art gallery.

Here's my take on the nights festivities at Shiprock in New Mexico. Wayne Pinkston, Sandra Herber, Chris Wrey, Willa Wei, Huibo Hou, and Wenjie Qiao and I, all converged on this formation with some serious intent on one very windy chilly evening.
Hot tip of the day!!! :)
I always keep a full-size carabiner attached to the handle on My Tamrac Expedition7 camera pack and a mini titanium carabiner attached to the hook on my tripod, and this was one of those rare times that I had to attached my camera pack to my tripod. :)

I haven't been in here much because I've been wallowing in self pity. I was just diagnosed with cancer and it's located in my neck. The doctor is pretty sure it's curable and he has a 5 year plan. In the mean time lots can happen. I'll probably lose about 30 lbs, could lose most of my teeth and could lose the ability to talk. I'll be starting radiation and chemo later this month. It still hasn't completely sunk in and I'm still having trouble talking about it. I'll still be looking at your work but I just may not be contributing as much
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.

"Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall."— F. Scott Fitzgerald
My French neighbours:
Our hearts ache with your pain but we know that the light will always be with we all.
Light and life to Paris!
The days go by, through the brief silence of winter, when the sunshine is so still and pure, like iced wine, and the dead leaves gleam brown, and water sounds hoarse in the ravines.

TREKKING MONVISO TOUR - VALLANTA VALLEY. The afternoon heat inversion creates mists that highlight the valleys and mountains. The image was taken from the Vallanta Pass between the Vallée du Guil in FRANCE and the Varaita Valley, Monviso Natural Park, Piedmont, ITALY.
Tourtour Provence is like a village in the sky. Set on top of a windy hill (elevation 900 meters) with sweeping views all the way out to Frejus and the Mediterranean with the Mount St Victoire between. It’s a little known part of the Haute Var, Provence but it’s so worth seeking out.
The population is just under 500 but the locals are a tight knit group who put on one of the most amazing festivals known as the Fête de l’Oeuf (egg Festival) around Easter every year.
Tourtour is listed as one of the most beautiful villages in France and is well worth a visit. Take a walk through tiny cobbled streets to admire the well-restored village houses with their manicured gardens. There are lot of art galleries, the streets are peppered with fountains and it’s a very photogenic place. You’ll also spot ancient remains of older buildings, and the town hall is in a 17th century castle complete with turrets.
There’s a fossil museum, created by a local resident with a serious interest in fossils. The church of Saint-Denis at the top of the village is a classified historic monument and the views from its spot are outstanding.
The restaurants serve simple yet freshly made food which of course goes perfectly with a nice glass of chilled rosé. It’s about a 20 minutes’ drive from lively Cotignac. If you can take the road via Aups or Villecroze which, by the way, are also both villages worth a detour should time allow.
Most of the cafés and bars in Tourtour serve casual food – check out the great frites at La Farigoulette. But, there is also the more distinguished “La Table” restaurant with one Michelin star where you will find dishes like sautéed Ray or Guinea fowl. Prices here start at 28 euros per person.

daybreak
a thousand pieces
floating on the lake
shifting dreams
waking galaxies
constellations form
the wind breathes
everything shivers
light is born reborn
ps I took some liberties with the time of day
actually it was late afternoon...
sometimes these thing don't really matter.
I hope this is one of them ;-)
