The London Underground is a metro system serving a large part of Greater London and neighbouring areas of Essex, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire in England. It is the world's oldest underground railway system. It is usually referred to as the Underground or the Tube - the latter deriving from the shape of the system's deep-bore tunnels - although about 55% of the network is above ground.
The earlier lines of the present London Underground network, which were built by various private companies, became part of an integrated transport system (which excluded the main line railways) in 1933 with the creation of the London Passenger Transport Board (LPTB), more commonly known by its shortened name: "London Transport".
The Underground has 268 stations and approximately 400 km (250 miles) of track,[1] making it the longest metro system in the world by route length,[4] and one of the most served in terms of stations. In 2007, over one billion passenger journeys were recorded.
Transport for London (TfL) was created in 2000 as the integrated body responsible for London's transport system. It replaced London Regional Transport. It assumed control of London Underground Limited in July 2003.
The London Underground's 11 lines are the Bakerloo line, Central line, Circle line, District line, Hammersmith & City line, Jubilee line, Metropolitan line, Northern line, Piccadilly line, Victoria line, and Waterloo & City line.
Until 2007 there was a twelfth line, the East London line, but this has closed for rebuilding work. It will be reopen as part of London Overground - part of the National Rail network and eventually connected to its North London Line - in 2010.
The Underground has been featured in many movies and television shows, including Sliding Doors, Tube Tales and Neverwhere. The London Underground Film Office handles over 100 requests per month. The Underground has also featured in music such as The Jam's "Down in the Tube Station at Midnight" and in literature such as the graphic novel V for Vendetta. Popular legends about the Underground being haunted persist to this day.
The Underground currently sponsors and contributes to the arts via its Platform for Art and Poems on the Underground projects. Poster and billboard space (and in the case of Gloucester Road tube station, an entire disused platform) is given over to artwork and poetry to "create an environment for positive impact and to enhance and enrich the journeys of ... passengers".[

TfL is part of the Greater London Authority and is constituted as a statutory corporation regulated under local government finance rules.[22] It has three subsidiaries: London Transport Insurance (Guernsey) Ltd., the TfL Pension Fund Trustee Co. Ltd. and Transport Trading Ltd (TTL). TTL has six wholly-owned subsidiaries, one of which is London Underground Limited.

I found this larva today under a leaf of our geranium (shaamdani) flowerpot.
It's a one of dangerous enemy or pest for this kind of plant who eat leafs destructively.
The half of leafs were damaged with this larva and now our lovely geranium plant are peaceful from this glutton enemy.
But it was a great model for my macro photography :)

Lake Wakatipu is an inland lake (finger lake) in the South Island of New Zealand. It is at 45°3′S, 168°30′E, in the southwest corner of Otago, near its boundary with Southland.
With a length of 80 kilometres, it is New Zealand's longest lake, and, at 291 km², its third largest. It is at an altitude of 310 metres, towards the southern end of the Southern Alps. The general topography is a reversed "N" shape. The Dart River flows into the northern end, the lake then runs south for 30 kilometres before turning abruptly to the east. Twenty kilometres further along, it turns sharply to the south, reaching its southern end 30 kilometres further south, near Kingston.
The lake is drained by the Kawarau River, which flows out from the lake's Frankton Arm, 8km east of Queenstown. Queenstown is on the northern shore of the lake close to eastern end of its middle section. The lake is very deep, its floor being as low as 100 metres below sea level. It has a seiche of period 26.7 minutes which, in Queenstown Bay, causes the water level to rise and fall some 200 millimetres.
Lake Wakatipu is renowned for its scenic beauty, being surrounded by mountains. The Remarkables mountain range lies along its southeastern edge. It is a popular venue for adventure tourism, with skifields, paragliding, bungy jumping and tramping tracks within easy reach. A vintage steamboat, the TSS Earnslaw regularly plies its waters. Several vineyards are nearby.

Another dramatic red sunset from my London Sunset series, here the sun is hiding behind the silhouette while painting the clouds in red. Sunset..the neverending subject.
“Se dice del caballo cuya capa es de color blanco. Casi siempre podemos comprobar la presencia de algunos pelos de otro color que no cambian el aspecto general. El término ‘melado’, usado en la época colonial, es, según Azara, el de un caballo totalmente blanco...”

Sometimes you review your old photo folders and find one you meant to post to Flickr, but forgot. Or you thought the one you posted was better.
Seeing this again, I definitively think it should be posted. Its a narrower view compared to the previous one (fewer shots). But there's more of what's in there, I feel. And the stitches look better to me. And the new Opera house (opening April 2008 - white Snøhetta designed building bottom left) is included in full here.
Here's the other photos shot at the same time.

White, limestones facades of the Hotel the Ville, the Opera, the Grand Hotel and the museum Beaux Arts around the square in the center of Nancy. The statue in the center of the square is the man called Stanislas, the generous and wealthy man of the Lorraine.
De witte, kalkstenen façades van het Hôtel de Ville, de Opéra, het Grand Hôtel en het Musée de Beaux Arts omlijsten het plein. De tegels zijn een tint witter, twee zwarte diagonalen trekken er een kruis op. De uiterst barokke fonteinen met hun gouden hekwerken vragen om aandacht, evenals de vergulden lantaarns. Maar de indrukwekkende bolling van het plein en de diagonalen sturen de blik toch vooral naar de man die in het midden staat: het standbeeld van Stanislas, ‘weldoener’ van de Lorraine.

This is not a painting like many people are asking me. Those are Cypress trees. Shot taken in Teresópolis - Rio de Janeiro-
se encontraban los patos en el Estany de Puigcerdà (Girona), al caer la tarde, fué divertido verlos incluso patinar sobre él.
In back of the Stage Harbor Lighthouse at Chatham, Cape Cod. This landing is hidden away a bit on Sears Neck, at the end of a series of winding roads. Though I grew up here I've only just been there for the first time this year. Very odd to find new places in a town only four miles on each side and surrounded by ocean.

Nice is a city in southern France located on the Mediterranean coast, between Marseille and Genoa, with 986,903 inhabitants in the metropolitan. The city is a major tourist centre and a leading resort on the French Riviera (Côte d'Azur). It is the historical capital city of the County of Nice. There were settlements in the Nice area approximately 2,000 years ago: the site of Terra Amata shows one of the earliest uses of fire and construction of houses. Nice was founded probably around 350 BC by the Greeks of Massilia (Marseille) and received the name of "Nikaia" in honour of a victory over the neighbouring Ligurians (Nike being the Greek goddess of victory). It soon became one of the busiest trading ports on the Ligurian coast

The vast (185 metres long, 66 metres wide and 44 metres high) curved roof iron and glass trainshed is designed by Clement van Bogaert and constructed between 1895 and 1899. The station is widely regarded as the finest example of railway architecture in Belgium. It is often referred to as a "Railway Cathedral".

From November to December it is the season of sunflower blooming. Not far from Bangkok, there is lots of sunflower fields blooming alomst the same time.
Driving and expecting so we found the first sunflower field was so beautiful and stunning with cheerful yellow field, mountain background and lively elephants and people.
As blooming time is not long so it is golden time too. Those elephants added so much the joy in the field. They walk happily in the field. Thai people are familiar with elephant.
The elephant I sat on is 20 years old female elephant called "ลมโชย" or "Breezing Wind". She walked and stopped here and there several times to grasp grass for eating. We was happy as she was happy walking carrying three of us and one owner of hers. We fed her with sugarcane some minutes before we decided to have elephant walk with her. So she may remembered us. The owner didn't push her to walk faster though he could earn more money. I asked why and the owner said let her be happy.. and I was so happy to hear that, otherwise I could pay more for more time.
It was bright day, sunny with cloud shadow so the weather was all day comfortable.
I heard happy talks and saw happy smiles all around in those happy colors of flowery field.. Just another one fine day.
(added)
There is a small road withiin the field so people and elephant could walk without flattening the flowers..There is a temporary tower using as platform for elephant onbard : )))) so we can took location like this but Ithis shot actually took when I was sitting on elephant.. when she walked the world just incline in each step so photo comes like that...

As much as I love shooting with my Pentax K10D it isn't practical to carry to/from work everyday given that its a full-sized semi-pro dSLR camera. So bought a tiny Canon IXY 910IS digital camera as my cameraphone, while handy, doesn't quite cut it as a serious camera for shots around Tokyo.

The internationally famous island of Sipadan lies five degrees north of the equator in the Sulawesi Sea. Lying 35km south of Semporna, on Sabah's mainland, like many tropical island it is thickly forested and surrounded by sandy beaches. Sipadan is an oceanic island and was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct undersea volcano, which rises 600m from the seabed.

A Flickrmeet at Chatsworth House. Arrived early and had a wander through the estate and met up with some cows. Jon Bradbury can be seen in the background photographing his model ;)
I did get my lens licked while taking these photos and it steamed up a few times when they breathed out on it - they need to be very close to get this kind of wide angle distortion.

"Expressão entardecida
nos seus invernos finais
qual um velho cinamomo
arrancado do seu chão
onde deixou os sinais

e a seiva melhor do lenho

Ecco come mi si è presentato il cratere di Sud-Est la mattina del 16 novembre 2006. Una serie continua di forti esplosioni hanno portato al collasso del fianco orientale del cratere. La lava si andava a riversare verso la Valle del Bove passando per la depressione appena creatasi formando delle vere e proprie cascate.
This is how the south east crater appeared on the 16th november 2006. Due to the strong explosions the eastern flank of the crater collapsed letting the lava flows go toward the Bove Valley. On its route to the valley the lava flows created some rapids.
A little of capitalism theme going on here. The building in the foreground is the San Francisco Mint. Followed by a Bank of America branch in the middle. The Port of Oakland in the background. Last but not least, the ultimate symbol of modern capitalism, a skyscraper condominium. In this case it's the sleek and modern One Rincon Hill.
It's amazing how far one can see on the high plains of the central shortgrass prairie. Yet another endless image from the grasslands east of Trinidad Colorado. Hope you all are not getting tired of vanishing points, I'm addicted. ;-)))
