A calm, peaceful evening in the Lamar Valley....I just loved the way the evening light was hitting the grass along the river.
Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend; busy week ahead for me; should know within the next few days if I will be impacted by all the layoffs; preparing for the worst & hoping for the best; of course, if I do end up laid off, we could always retire to the mountains a bit earlier than we had planned :-) Have a great week....I appreciate all your visits & support!!!

Sugar maples are my favorite autumn trees. They display a rainbow of brilliant fall colors.
Allegany State Park. October 10, 2012
A trip for the memory books and experiences of a lifetime, from Incheon to Busan to Seoul. It was full of pottery, food and friends, and some drink thrown in for good measure.
So, it's off again for another 365 Project. For those who are new to the game and don't know me, my name is Fiona and I live in Brisbane, Australia. This will be my 6th 365, the first three I completed in 2012, 2016 and 2019 and the next two in 2021 and 2022, so I am about to start on my third in a row. I take photos with my trusty Canon, but I am also partial to my IPhone. You will see all sorts of things in my stream, but I am partial to macro photography.
Its lovely to see some old familiar faces will be joining in this year, I will endeavor to be a better Flickr friend and take the time to comment but sometimes it takes all my effort just to get a picture taken.
All the best to everyone with their projects, I look forward to taking the journey with you all.

Social Housing
Gottfried Böhm, Architect
I can't believe I have never made it out here before. I was so completely impressed with the project, my daughter thought I had lost my marbles--although she liked it as well. What moved me was the amount of thought and detail which went into the complex which make it so liveable--and the residents seem to feel the same way. They have taken good care of it--which isn't always a given. There are planters everywhere and vines growing up, actually creating a romantic atmosphere out of this huge concrete social housing complex.
At any rate, that is a stair/elevator-tower in the center, connecting to the L-shaped housing around it via bridges. Access to the appartments are from these communal loggias.

Shot taken while driving.
It was time to move on, but not before some danger along the way. On those mountain roads from Phoenix up to Flagstaff we narrowly dodged the end of our road trip, and witnessed the end of someone else's.
Ever see someone driving in the right lane really fast behind someone going really slow, you know they want to go in front of you but you're just cruising, they're driving reckless, they're not gonna make it unless you break your cruise... And let's face it, screw them right? They can't wait an extra 3-4 seconds and pass me after?
Worst part, this guy has a trailer attached, driving a pick up. I don't let him in front of me, no turn signal anyway, but I just recognize the pattern. So after I pass him and the big rig he's tailgating, he swerves into my lane in a fury behind me and in my wear view mirror I witness his trailer swing behind him and push him into the gate beside the mountain, the front swing and hit the big rig, then turn, spin, and hit the gate again as the cars pile up behind him all hitting his trailer and the big rig.
Initially I didn't know how I felt, I thought to myself if I had let him in front of me, maybe he wouldn't of swerved so ugly and caused all that mayhem... Then I came to my senses... If I had let him in front of me, I'd of hit the back of him after he spun out.
Don't be dangerous on the roads guys, the chase of saving a couple extra seconds can sometimes cost a couple extra lives.
well... they fell in love... what else ; )?

Una de las salidas donde lo que busco que retratar el atardecer, pero al otro lado donde estaba atardeciendo se venia esta tormenta y pude capturar cuando la nube se rompe y cae el agua, uno se da cuenta la inmensidad de las cosas en ese momento. Espero que les gusten y Saludos a todos/as

Ave muy peculiar, debido al gran tamaño de su pico, en comparación con el tamaño de su cabeza. El picogordo (Coccothraustes coccothraustes) está dotado de un pico grueso, fuerte y poderoso, de donde toma su nombre común. Esta ave cuenta con unos músculos maxilares altamente desarrollados, que accionan su pico y que le permiten producir una fuerza trituradora que va desde los 25 a más de 40 kilos para abrir los huesos de cerezas, y otras drupas, que son uno de sus alimentos favoritos en otoño e invierno.
Puede ampliarse información de este prodigio de la naturaleza, en el siguiente trabajo que tengo publicado sobre esta especie:

GIOVANNA ANELLI è il nuovo direttore generale dell’AMA, nominata in sostituzione del dimissionario amministratore delegato Salvatore Cappello, che a sua volta era stato nominato in sostituzione del l’A.D. Panzironi, che abbiamo ben conosciuto attraverso gli scandalosi fatti di cronaca (parentopoli e ruberie di danaro pubblico). Non credo che cambierà molto, si continuerà con le ruberie e l’inefficienza già dimostrata. Dopotutto il burattinaio ( ALEMANNO) è sempre quello.
L’assessore all’ambiente è MARCO VISCONTI, persona capace solo per farsi gli affari suoi (assunzione della moglie con la qualifica dirigente della moglie a TRAMBUS – compensi da favola).
Per quanto riguarda il codice di comportamento, nonché etico (contratto di servizio), vai sul seguente sito: www.amaroma.it/azienda/ , ora verifica se il servizio svolto è in linea con gli impegni presi con i contribuenti, i quali strapagano questi servizi. Se non trovi riscontro alle aspettative, regolati come meglio credi.
Evidenzio inoltre, che meno di un anno fa (novembre 2011), è stata una promossa una giornata importante per la tutela dell’ambiente e delle aree verdi della città di Roma: l’Assessorato alle Politiche Ambientali, in collaborazione con Roma Capitale hanno una giornata dedicata al confronto e alle proposte per la lotta al degrado.
ALEMANNO, con la collaborazione di ANDREA DI PRIAMO presidente della Commissione Ambiente, e MONICA LUCARELLI, presidente della Fondazione Insieme per Roma, ha presentato una campagna dal titolo “ ROMA E’ LA NOSTRA CASA, RISPETTIAMOLA” volta a sensibilizzare la cittadinanza sul tema del decoro pubblico e della tutela dell’inestimabile patrimonio artistico, culturale e ambientale della città eterna (ER BUE DICE CORNUTO ALL'ASINO)
Alla conferenza stampa è seguito un dibattito, fortemente voluto dall’Assessore MARCO VISCONTI, a cui sono stati invitati svariti BLOGGER, tra cui ROMAFASCHIFO,
In quell’occasione, TONELLI era sul palco ( si dovrebbe ricordare bene) , si dichiarò che l’ingresso di Roma tra i comuni attivi, sarà un segnale importante rivolto dalla Capitale al paese, il modo migliore per iniziare un nuovo anno (ricordo che eravamo a metà novembre 2011) all’insegna della partecipazione e della trasparenza (meno male). .....Mi dispiace per la mia città ..........
"Happy New Year" they say to each other - and so do I!

Vandaag mocht de SSN met de 01-1075 naar Limburg toeren. Terwijl de mistflarden net zijn opgetrokken passeert de loc met rijtuigen, 2225 achterop en buiten hangende stoker (koud!)op 8 december 2012 in het vroege ochtendzonnetje door het koude en besneeuwde Hedel onder "Volldampf" naar het zuiden.
The Red Deer river begins to slow down as it gracefully begins its journey through the Canadian Badlands. This photo is take just south of Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park. As you can see it was an exquisite morning!

Scuderia Ferrari No. 31
Chassis / Engine No. 5006
This is one of six Gran Premio Tipo B (P3) Alfas built in 1931. It features a double supercharged engine developing 215 horsepower at 5,800 rpm. The innovative drive train designed by automotive genius Vittoria Jano utilized twin drive shafts connected in a Vee configuration to the differential that mounted directly to the gearbox. The P3 has a top speed of 232 kph (about 145 mph). Driven by George Eyston, the P3s won all the Grand Prix events it ran in 1932 and 1933.

Greatings from Robin on 04-02-2012 (Erithacus rubecula)
Dankzij een voederhuisje van eigen ontwerp zit er geen steun in de weg en is het toch overdekt.
Ik zie mezelf in zijn ogen.
Nikon D200 met Sigma 180mm APO lens
f/5,6 geeft m.i. al een opmerkelijke scherpte. Maar dan moet het roodborstje wel heel stil zitten bij 1/60 sec.
ISO = 250 geeft naar mijn ervaring de mooiste kleuren bij de D200.

Are you 'rat-person'?
I am. They're bright, inquisitive and quite lovely creatures. This one's name is 'waggle' and he's about 8 months old. He's sitting here balancing on my left arm while I take a picture with my right. I get that some people are most definitely not people ... :-)
He's a cutie huh?
