Un TGV file à vive allure sur la ligne Lyon - Paris.
Les gens à l'intérieur du train n'ont pas le temps d'admirer les beaux paysages de Bourgogne qu'ils traversent.
Je leur dédie donc cette photo. Cela incitera peut-être quelques uns qui ne connaissent pas de prendre un jour le temps de s'arrêter et de visiter cette belle région.
Ici, au sommet d'une colline après une montée sur un sentier très raide, on a une vue magnifique sur le Val Lamartinien.

At speed
A TGV ("Train à Grande Vitesse" - High-Speed Train) runs at speed on the Lyon - Paris line.
People inside the train have no time to admire the beautiful landscapes of Burgundy that they cross.
So, I dedicate this photo to them. This may encourage some who do not know to take a day time to stop and visit this beautiful region.
Here, at the top of a hill after a climb on a very steep path, we discover a great view upon the Val Lamartinien.

I am not so familiar with types of trees. Maybe someone can tell me if this is an oak?
Oh I think it could be an elm.

A juvenile Green Heron, I believe, photographed late last summer at Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, near Saginaw, Michigan
HBW!
As of 7/1/25, I am correcting my earlier ID. I now think that this is a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron.

Die Scheich-Zayid-Moschee ist die drittgrößte Moschee der Welt. Auf 224 x 174 Metern bietet die Moschee Platz für 40.000 Gläubige. Ihre Baukosten von geschätzten 545 Millionen US-Dollar sind in hochwertige Materialien und aufwändige Ausstattung geflossen. So wurden zum Beispiel 15 verschiedene Sorten Marmor zum Bau benutzt, die üppig mit Blattgold verziert wurden.

Grindelwald ,The Bachalpsee A view to the Schreckhorn (4,078 m alt. ) & the Finsteraarhorn .No.9088.
2 exposure panorama.
It is hard to imagine how ginormous these rocks are unless you can put things into perspective. The photographer on the right is my brother who is a healthy six-footer. Compare him to some people you see walking in the distance by the pines who are dwarfed by 100+ ft tall trees. Now compare these trees to the ones in the distance on the rocks. Now you get the picture.
Half Dome on the right rises nearly 5,000 ft from the valley with a peak at 8,836 ft (2,693 m) above sea level. On the left front are the Royal Arches ending with Washington Column on the right and North Dome in the back. Between the two rock formations run Tenaya Creek and Mirror Lake.
Halloween and Fall Colors - This where many wedding photography takes place. Too bad it's mostly in the summer because they are missing all this :)
From the kid representing the spring, the lovers representing the summer, the mother representing the fall and finally the old man; the winter himself.. haha.. pick your style...

"Sunrise" Canary Wharf, London, UK
Location: Kubah Nat. Park, Borneo
Toxicity: Mildly venomous (but non-medically significant to human)
The more stressed this bronzeback gets, the bluer (more blue) it become. The species is most easily identified when its anterior body is inflated in defense : at such times the vivid blue of the interstitial skin (the skin between the scales) is revealed. Though the Elegant Bronzeback also has blue interstitial skin, this appears to be far more intense in the Blue Bronzeback.
Toxicity: Non-venomous
Ce soir là, par une belle soirée d'été, j'ai diné en famille sur une terrasse en bord de Saône, dans un charmant petit restaurant au nord de Mâcon qui fait de l'excellente cuisine créole.
L'endroit est très tranquille, et il faisait un temps de rêve. Nous nous sommes régalés, et avons bu une bonne bouteille de Viré Clessé (vin blanc du Mâconnais).
Nous sommes sortis de table alors que la nuit tombait et avons fait quelques pas au bord de la rivière.
Il n'y avait pas un nuage dans le ciel, la lune brillait et se reflétait dans la Saône, et les étoiles sont apparues progressivement.
Ce spectacle magique offert par notre chère nature nous a fait ressentir toute la paix du lieu, et nous a rempli de joie et de gratitude, cela terminait bien la soirée.

A beautiful moonlight
On a beautiful summer evening, I dined with family on a terrace along the Saone river, in a small restaurant in the north of Macon that makes an excellent Creole cooking.
The place is very quiet, and we had a fantastic weather. We feasted and drank a nice bottle of Viré Clessé ( white wine from Macon region).
We left the table as the night fell and made a little walk along the river.
There were no clouds in the sky, the moon shone and was reflected in the Saone river, and the stars appeared gradually. This magical spectacle offered by our beloved nature made us feel all the peace of the place, and filled us with joy and gratitude, it ended well the evening.
