Located in the Virgo cluster, M98 M99 and M100 are three galaxies identified in Charles Messier's catalog of of deep-sky objects. This cluster is part of the larger Virgo Supercluster to which the Milky Way galaxy is part of.
Distances to these three objects range from 41-52 million light-years. The above image is roughly 2.7 degrees wide - about 5.5 full moons. At least 10 other NGC and IC galaxies are also visible.
Markarian's Chain is also part of the Virgo cluster.

Lombard street, a.k.a. "World's crookedest street" as they call it. Lombard street is a street in San Francisco, California and although it spans from Presidio all the way down to Embarcadero it is famous for a very specific portion of it: a steep downhill one block section with 8 (!) hairpin turns within 160 meters between Hyde and Laevenworth street. Unfortunately I couldn't find a decent spot to capture it perfectly but if you take a look at the photo you will notice that the cars that drive down Lombard street have very different directions. Lombard street sits on the side of the Russian hill and the fact that roughtly 2.000.0000 people per year visit it makes it is a very popular tourist attraction among San Francisco's sights. During busy summer weekends it is estimated that cars wait up to 20 minutes just to drive down the crooked part of Lombard street
Lombard Street, γνωστή και ως "η πιο στριφτη οδος τους κοσμου". Η οδός Lombard ειναι ενας δρομος που βρισκεται στο San Francisco της California και παροτι εκτεινεται απο την περιοχή Presidio εως το παραθαλάσσιο Embarcadero ειναι γνωστή για ενα πολυ μικρο κομματι της: ενα αποτομο κατηφορικο τμημα μηκους 160 μετρων με 8 αποτομες στροφες μεταξυ των οδων Hyde και Laevenworth. Δυστυχως δεν μπορεσα να βρω καποιο αλλο σημειο και να τραβηξω τη φωτογραφια καλυτερα ωστε να φαινονται οι στροφες, αν παρατηρησετε ομως τα αμαξια που κατεβαινουν το δρομο θα δειτε οτι λογω των 8 καμπυλων εχουν πολυ διαφορετικες τροχιες. Η οδος Lombard βρισκεται σε μια πλευρα της περιοχης Russian Hill και το γεγονος οτι δεχεται περιπου 2 εκατομμυρια επισκεπτες το χρονο την καθιστουν απο τα πιο δημοφιλη αξιοθεατα του San Francisco. Κατα τη διαρκεια των σαββατοκυριακων του καλοκαιριου υπολογιζεται οτι τα αυτοκινητα μπορει να περιμενουν μεχρι και 20 λεπτα για να κατεβουν αυτο το στριφογυριστο κομματι του δρομου.
This waterfall called Velo de Novia (bride's veil) in the site of el Chiflon waterfalls is particularly stunning with its 120 meters (394 feet) high!

The Sphinx, Recorded By Edgar-Allan-Poe-Not -
I don’t know what it is about the dimly lit forest that brings me back, time and time again. Maybe I’m wedded to the thrill of toppling over accidental astonishments. On a late Sunday afternoon, I felt the presence of a shadowy stalker in the darkest regions of the woods. We both seem to be on the same path heading to the same destination. Why is that? Pretending that I’m unaware, I slinked one foot briskly ahead of the other and tested by walking in circles instead of straight lines. The unwanted company followed suit and halted whenever I paused. This instant, my sixth sense confirms someone or something is trailing my shoeprints. Catching my breath beneath the low branches where tall grass grows, the soft flutter of wings get bigger. An entity definitely was in the background flitting from tree to tree. It wasn’t a copter drone sent by the National Security Agency for sure. If the lurker chased a wee bit harder I would be within reach. Frozen in fright, my legs were pushed to take flight. I run, run and run. As with any nightmare, you sprint but never speed an inch from where you stand. Disastrously, my pursuer so close finally overtook and reined right in front. In a state of panic, my fingers fumbled to click the camera’s skylight to kill whatever is before me. Eeeek! In the first second, my lenses directly perceived a hideous imp with acute panda ears. The face without eyes let fly a baleful glare that dared me to return his stare. Its devilish grin was so wide, I could be wolfed down alive. In an old voice cruel and flat, he mouthed a monotonous mock, “Monsters don’t live under the bed but inside your head. Cat…! Cat…! Cat…!” Coming next, my pumping heart shudders at the subject caught… oh, I was just viewing a secretive moth with cryptic markings inked on Pepsi-Cola wings!
That day, the sky gave us an absolutely fantastic sunset. The sun's rays stood out in the sky with beautiful colors, the mountain in front of us was all illuminated, it was stunning !

Ce jour là, le ciel nous a gratifié d'un coucher de soleil absolument fantastique. Les rayons du soleil se découpaient dans le ciel avec des couleurs magnifiques, la montagne en face de nous était toute illuminée, c'était prodigieux !

Dynamic Paris at sunset.
Canon DPP stripped off the exif while merging the hdr files, so I made another HDR fusion and blent with the one you are seeing now.
I couldn't help myself to push the colors button and brought the details of the lights in every corner and at the same time I tried to treat the sky and water in a harmonious way possible.
Hope you like it!
I'm not going to kill everyone's mood with the King of Leon song below, I just find it beautiful.
Under to the crowded walls of mine, wishing everyone's Sunday will be amazing!

As kind of seen in the surreal world of Washington, D.C. :)

The rain began again. It fell heavily, easily, with no
meaning or intention but the fulfillment of its own nature,
which was to fall and fall.

On n'est plus très loin du sommet de la roche de Solutré et le village de Solutré luit au soleil en dessous de nous, tandis que l'ombre gagne insensiblement du terrain.
De la gelée blanche est restée intacte depuis le matin et parsème les coteaux au milieu de quelques bancs de brume. Au loin, le Mont-Blanc, de plus en plus visible, resplendit au dessus d'une mer de nuages qui recouvre toute la plaine de la Saône.
Et je suis en train de me répéter que j'ai bien fait de sortir, je n'avais jamais vu les lieux comme cela ! Mais le plus beau était encore à venir ...

Light and shadow
We are not very far from the top the Roche de Solutré (Solutre's rock) and the village of Solutre shines in the sun below us, as the shadow imperceptibly grows. White frost has remained intact since the morning and sprinkles the hillsides among some patches of mist.
In the distance, the Mont-Blanc, more and more visible, shines over a sea of clouds that covers the whole plain of the Saône River.
And I'm repeating myself that I did well to go out because i had never seen this place like this! But the most beautiful was yet to come ...

J'ai pris avec gourmandise cette dernière photo du magnifique clocher roman de l'abbaye de Cluny. C'était une belle image à garder avant de repartir

Elle était sur la plage,
Caressait de sa main le sable
Le sentir, ressentir.
Pour elle, ces moments n'ont pas de prix.
Toucher les éléments
Sentir l'odeur de l'ocean
Ressentir sur sa peau le soleil
Je la regardais caresser le sable depuis un moment,je me suis approchée et lui ai demandé de prendre ses mains en photos.
Today I was going by bike again. I have visited three "heads" (Kleinheppacher Kopf - 452 m, Hörnleskopf - 426 m and Korber Kopf - 456 m).
On the picture you see the view from Korber Kopf at the vineyard and the town Korb (a municipality in the Rems-Murr district, 15 km northeast of Stuttgart).

The weather starts to warm, the birds start to sing, kittens and puppies are everywhere. Leaves come out and flowers bloom.
Beautiful spring in Finland.
