Combine of 3 exposures HDR. Parking area of Cibodas, West Java, Indonesia.
This offshoot of the Bogor Botanical Gardens was founded in 1862 to study mountain flora. The cinchona (a tropical tree belonging to the madder family) was first brought from South America in 1854 and later cultivated here. The collection now showcases 5,000 montane plants acquired from around the world. At an altitude of 1,200 meters, the serene pastures stretch more than 80 hectares and see cool temperatures averaging 18 degrees Celsius. The charming mountainside panorama adds to the tranquility. This is a gateway to the Gede-Pangrango National Park, Mount Gede and Mount Pangrango.
Location:West Peloponnese/Greece.

Located in the Trotternish area, on the northernmost summit of Skye, Quiraing is a magnificent place steeped in both natural beauty and history. Formed by a series of substantial landslips, this area boasts abundant cliffs, rock pinnacles, and captivating plateaus. Small lakes dot the base of the craggy mountains, adding to the area's immense allure and making it one of the top attractions on the Isle of Skye.
This region is in constant motion, which is why the nearby roads require constant repair.
Some say villagers hid their cattle in the Quiraing's hidden nooks and crannies in an effort to protect them from Vikings.

A friend captured this Hawk with his phone camera. The hawk had swooped down and captured a squirrel to feed upon high in this tree. My friend said he was honored to get this shot. This bird of prey was “Watching The Area” intently when spotting the squirrel. Thanks for viewing this work. Stay kind.
I did stick my neck out here thinking I might vaguely ID this critter. I was actually looking for a Barn Owl, which was less than cooperative in terms of photo ops, so these guys were a great consolation.

Unfortunately, the spruces on the Herikerberg and the surrounding area have been seriously affected by an insect called the European spruce bark beetle. The spruces have weakened after a storm in January 2018 and the subsequent dry summers of 2018 and 2019.
Under these circumstances the trees could not defend themselves well against the bark beetle plague, which caused the death of trees on a large scale.
The affected dead trees are removed for safety and to prevent further spread of the bark beetle.
The felled forests will be replanted and will continue to be maintained as forest.
Helaas zijn de fijnsparren op de Herikerberg en omgeving ernstig aangetast door een insect, genaamd de letterzetter (een kever). De fijnsparren zijn na een storm van januari 2018 en de daarop volgende droge zomers van 2018 en 2019 verzwakt.
Onder deze omstandigheden konden de bomen zich niet goed verweren tegen de letterzetterplaag waardoor op grote schaal bomen zijn afgestorven.
De aangetaste en dode bomen worden weggehaald uit veiligheid en om verdere verspreiding van de letterzetter tegen te gaan.
De gekapte bossen zullen weer opnieuw worden ingeplant en gewoon verder als bos in stand worden gehouden.
I processed a few more photos from my vacation to Bryce so thought I may as well post another. I promise not to post another 25 of them:-))).
The Bridge....
Saturday Karen and I made our way to the south end of Heart Lake Conservation Area; The fall is a fickle time. some years the leaves changing colours are okay and others they don't change much at all. some years they last for a long time others a sudden storm and strong winds and its all over.
This is probably the last weekend for shooting fall colours in southern Ontario, the colour display is off the charts, so may varied shades of red, yellow and burnt orange.
this shot is of the bridge in the middle of the park, it is showing signs of its age and will probably be replaced with a much better newer one, but i do love the old worn out version.
Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

Waiting a long time for earthquake repairs and strengthening
or so they tell us--for a bit at least. It's been one blast after another for months, it seems!

The East Entrance Road curves around the base of Lake Butte as it approaches the shores of Yellowstone Lake. A wildfire in 2003 burned the forest in the Lake Butte area which accounts for the burned trees at the bend in the road.
