I spent a couple of hours the other morning, just wandering around the coastline near my house, photographing all my old favourite spots. The waves were really active thanks to the strong westerly and there was some strong sunlight, periodically piercing the dark, moody skies. I love summer days like this as the atmosphere created can be really ideal for seascape photography. This is the coastline of Scotland's Moray Firth from Portknockie.
This shot is of a small stream. The leaves on the left side are several inches under water, the leaves on the right are floating on top of the water, the water itself is reflecting the bare trees that once nurtured these leaves.
I watched through the camera for visible signs of what was tempting all these dives, but no catch was evident to me. I know Gannets to be easily capable of swallowing whole mackerel because we've thrown those to them out on the bay when fishing. Unless they're swallowed underwater, before resurfacing?
We had a lovely conversation with the leaseholders of this property. Their life lease will run until the passing of the youngest family member alive at the time of the original lease in the 1930s.
While chatting with them, we were paddling upwind to stay near their dock. Of course the wind died down before it could help our return paddle.
Big Sur, California
A rocky section of the Pacific coast, typical of the Big Sur coast.
When an ocean’s coast coincides with active tectonic plate boundaries, you get what the geologists call an active margin. Rocky shores and coastal mountain ranges such as found along the Pacific Coast are the usual result. Long sandy beaches are a relative rarity along such coasts and are more commonly found along passive margins such as the Atlantic coast of North America.
I was hoping for some more eastbounds in the earlier morning light up on the bluffs, but the closest things were a couple of Zs working at Midway. Naturally, when I decided to move and go for an intercept I missed one; but I still added a new angle to the collection.
The first Z is done with its work at the St. Paul Intermodal Facility and is easing down the hill and through the plant at the Jackson Street control point and is about to pass under Phalen Blvd.
Those annoying lens flares got in the picture, but I was really excited for the result. Hope you enjoyed this as much as I did making it.

At the Jaggar Museum in Volcanoes National Park you can view the main active crater on the Big Island of Hawaii. At night the glow of the magma bubbling up becomes apparent. During the day you get beautiful rainbows over the barren landscape.

An active region that was rotating out of view off the sun's western limb, displayed a dazzling variety of dozens of spurts and eruptions in about 2.5 days (Apr. 19-21, 2014). The frames, taken in extreme ultraviolet light, show ionized Helium not far above the Sun's surface. All of the activity near this region was caused by intense magnetic forces in a powerful struggling with each other.

"Learning should be an active process. Too often, students come to school to watch their teachers work." Will Daggett
A little male kinglet with his crown exposed. The females have a solid yellow crown patch. Kinglets are hyper-active and a frustrating bird to photo. They can see your lens move to focus and fly before you can press the shutter release! Our beautiful world, pass it on.
I came across this Osprey as it was searching for food at a small inlet, and I knew it would provide some good photo ops. I love this type of shot where the perspective almost seems as though we are right up there, gliding alongside this magnificent raptor.

AAW March 28 - April 4: People
WIT: We haven't seen my husband's grandson in months because of Covid concerns. He also spent some time in hospital. But he's better now, and it was great to see him. It was difficult to get a nice shot because he seemed to be always in front of the sliding door, so he was always backlit. I did a bit of photo editing to make his face look brighter.
Active Assignment Weekly July 17 - 24: Whimsy
WIT: I took a picture of this celestial observatory, and thought it would be whimsical if the "Hand of God" came out of the clouds, as if to say, "NO PEEKING!!!". So I took a picture of my hand, cut it out and pasted it to this picture. I also added a bit of texture and saturation to give a more surreal feel to the image.
Early in the morning, unfortunately we didn't find any of this nice species in rest mode.
Later in the morning we did find some which were already very active.
Then, the extra mm's are very handy to capture them when they are active and shyer.
Handheld shot.

N.B. The three large stands of trees on the skyline are known locally as The Regiments.
Mount Ruapehu (north island of New Zealand) panorama.... this active volcano is still snow capped mid summer!
Like any good tourist, I had to take a picture of this historic monument. It's not anything too brilliant, or magnificent, but it is a quaint, even respectable landmark to commemorate Active World's narrative of when the world was born, and who was its first citizen. There's a bit more that would be interesting to know, such as who this first citizen was in the real world, and what their relation to Active Worlds was. Was this Cy person part of the team that created Active Worlds, or is this the first unique individual that signed up to become a citizen? A lot of questions, just from one statue and its simple homage.
Note: I have come to consider places like Worlds and Active Worlds as being open virtual worlds. These were the pioneers of virtual spaces on the internet, and among the first to quote Snow Crash, even begin to coin 'metaverse' and web3.0 in trying to explain what they are. Therefore, any group that, in a general sense, speaks of themselves as an open world, open life, virtual world, web3.0, or hypergrid, seems appropriate appropriate groups to add them to. After all, these virtual worlds were very much ahead of the game and developed a lot of the aspects that make up our virtual world experiences even to this day. Not only did they have teleportation to different regions, but to different servers, even without utilizing a hypergate, but simply by teleporting to that server, as long as you had that server's coordinates. If you don't agree with this definition, let me know, and I won't post these in your group.
