The wall varies in thickness as you go along.. this is a farly thin section.. in places its over 3m thick.. not sure why . maybe materials were scarce, or the builders were not so good! its still impessive though....
Located in Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, Dark Hollow Falls is one of the most popular hikes in the park. Although the trail loop is less than 2 miles, the entirety of the hike and trail is set upon a very steep incline.
I was lucky to snag this image on the hike back up (and you better believe it was tough!). This particular vantage point was VERY crowded with other tourists; fortunately, I was able to wiggle my way to the front and this awesome shot was the result. Some late afternoon light left a brilliant glow on the upper falls that gave a nice contrast to the darker, more ominous shade from the foliage overhead. Not a bad way to end a tough hike!
Der Kirchturm der Gleschendorfer Kirche steht direkt vor der untergehenden Sonne und spiegelt sich somit auch im Großen Pönitzer See, dabei ist er ca. 1 km vom See entfernt.
A long exposure, landscape image of Covesea Skerries Lighthouse near Lossiemouth in Morayshire, Scotland.
Looking in the deepness of the eyes of this ageless Sadhu, I can perceive everuthing which has bewitched me of India, wisdom, sadness, life, death, richness, poverty, story, courage, tradition and the people. India is an ancient and strange place, difficult to understand and to know, but easy to love.
I found this seagull perched on a post leading out to the rougher waters of the area surrounding Venice. There were boats by each home or building there because after all it is only one of two ways to navigate Venice. The other is by walking.

poi viene notte :-))))
non è uno "splendor di foto" ma solo un promemoria importante:
viene la notte qui, ma più in là ad ovest questo tramonto continua a spandere la sua bellezza e a spalancare di meraviglia gli occhi che lo incontrano...
...un po' come i cerchi a pelo d'acqua che si allargano ...
l'ultima foto di una serata speciale.
GRAZIE per il vostro tempo e i vostri commenti ...
THANK YOU for your time and your comments!
"Dreaming in Mother Nature’s arms about the world we share
And how much we care
Free to be, in peace and harmony, what every nation wants
What we all can dream
Green dream for our planet and all of us who love it..."

Somewhere over Greenland / Grönland
on our way from Frankfurt to Calgary, AB, Canada
A lone Timber Wolf at the Calgary Zoo. It was a cool day and the snow was lightly falling too.

Another beautiful morning at Many Glacier with the day's first light caressing The Garden Wall, Grinnell Point and Mt. Wilbur.
The winds were whistling this fine morning. Not often does one gets water droplets on their lens from a lake....but I did this dawn.
A few other sunrise shots from this favorite place in comments.
Enjoy a wonderful Wednesday!
It's late afternoon and storm clouds are coming in, with a long drive back to Banff via the Icefields Parkway still ahead.
Thankfully the rain held off until I made it back to my warm and cosy hotel room!

A stormy monotone depiction of the highest mountains on the North American continent. Mt. Hunter on the left, King Denali on the right. As a peak freak viewing Denali was a priority and highlight of last summer's trip to Alaska. True nuff, all the other peaks bow to it's glory.
This was a rare view between the thick forests along the Petersville road. A tighter color version in comments.

Karlovka Obora or Charles Park is a little off the normal tourist track but well worth a visit. Miles of pathways to follow,streams,bridges, swimming in the lake even a raft to pull yourself across to a small island. Standard joke for the children when we where there seemed to be get to the island, then refuse to come back. Always seemed to be a reluctant parent having to cross & gather up the children. The ice cream seller always stops at the raft, which seems to empty the island,a great sales technique. Over the last few years Prague counsels have declared that a percentage of all parks have to be plant for wildlife, hence you now see large areas turned over to wildflower meadows which is fantastic & visually much better than just green grass. The area where this shot was taken was about the size of half a football pitch
I found this image today and decided to work it up. Shot from the shore of Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park. Thanks for looking! Chip
Arrivare a Giverny è molto semplice ; si trova a tre quarti d'ora di treno da Parigi, partenza da Gare Saint Lazare, si prende il treno per Dieppe e si scende a Vernon che dista 4 km da Giverny ; qui si trova un buon servizio navetta con cui si può raggiungere il ridente paesino dove visse in una grande casa rosa dalle persiane verdi circondata dal magnifico giardino Claude Monet .
Con 700.000 visitatori all’anno, la Fondazione Monet è tra le maggiori mete turistiche di Francia ed una meta assolutamente da visitare una volta nella vita per provare un profondo senso di libertà, annusando fragranze mutevoli ed ammirando la bellezza di colori a volte cupi e sbiaditi, altre volte saturi e brillanti, a seconda dell’umore del tempo e delle stagioni.
E’ un ottimo modo per entrare in sintonia con la natura.
Noi siamo arrivati a Giverny di primo mattino sperando di evitare il grande afflusso dei visitatori che giornalmente si recano in questo luogo magico ; purtroppo , alla biglietteria , abbiamo dovuto affrontare ugualmente una lunga attesa prima di accedere ai giardini e quando finalmente siamo entrati erano già invasi dai turisti .
Aveva smesso di piovere da poche ore; nonostante il cielo grigio , frequente in Normandia , i fiori zuppi per la recente pioggia spiccavano con i propri colori vivaci nel verde splendente creando magnifici riflessi nello stagno.
