It was an unforgettable session with a perfect morning light. I've been waiting for this day for several months, thinking about the cadres I wanted to do.
There are only a few places at the church where you can use a wide-angle lens. In a few photos I used the Hitech ND 0.9 Grad Soft filter (85x110), and some of the photos I took from the tripod and hand in places where I could not use a tripod.
Such an unusual moment, in addition to the uniqueness of the mood of peace and quiet during this session was an unexpected meeting. When I quietly moved around the church taking photos - suddenly I heard somebody was running (on a steep road from stone blocks) and the conversation of two people (father and son) and their loud breaths (the church is on the hill and it was very early) - their surprise that this time of the day someone is photographing in this place was immeasurable and unforgettable.
Nature
Nature, mountains, lakes, rivers, flowers, there is nothing so wonderful and close to happiness than to contemplate the places that nature offers us, and in addition to enjoying them, keep those images in my old camera to remember them again when I'm no longer there, where the silence was heard
This is one of the places I go to regularly, it is located in the province of Zamora, and it is a Biosphere Reserve, Parque de las Lagunas de Sanabria.
La Naturaleza
La Naturaleza , las montañas, los lagos , los rios , las flores, no hay nada tan maravilloso y cercano a la felicidad que contemplar los parajes que nos brinda la naturaleza, y ademas de disfrutarlos guardar esas imagenes en mi vieja cámara para volver a recordarlos cuando ya no este allí, donde se escuchaba el silencio.
Este es uno de los lugares a los que acudo con asiduidad, se encuentra en la provincia de Zamora, y es Reserva de la Biosfera, Parque de las Lagunas de Sanabria.
Got really lucky that the morning was so calm and the water was still, except for the occasional duck. On the left is the South Sister and on the right is Broken Top.
Located in the heart of Central Oregon just 25 miles west of Bend, Sparks Lake is a large, shallow lake. Situated near the northwest edge of Mount Bachelor, the lake boasts spectacular views of Broken Top and South Sister in addition to Mount Bachelor. Sparks Lake was formed by volcanic activity in the area over 10,000 years ago. Pristine alpine streams flow into this beautiful lake.
Sparks Lake is a natural body of water near the crest of the central Cascade Range in Deschutes County.
This is an Episcopal church built in 1881 in the Carpenter Gothic style. It was designed by T. Buckler Ghequiere. On December 28, 1979, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. The porch has an inset Gothic arch and a double doorway with its original herringbone-pattern paneled doors. There is a rose window of stained glass above the porch. The church also has its original pews. The church originally had a bell tower on the peaked roof where the cross now sits. All of the other buildings are later additions. This church is located in Heathsville, Northumberland County, Virginia.
Amaiur, Valle del Baztán, Navarra, España.
Amaiur/Maya es un lugar de la Comunidad Foral de Navarra (España), situado en el valle del Baztán, en la Merindad de Pamplona y a 65 kilómetros de Pamplona.
Ya en el siglo XII aparece con el nombre de Amaiur, como una de las "tenencias" o distritos nobiliarios del reino de Navarra.
Fue villa en 1665 cuando se segregó del Baztán hasta su nueva agregación al mismo en 1969.
En lo alto de su monte Gaztelu, se encontraba el Castillo de Maya en donde se produjo una de las últimas resistencias de los navarros a la Conquista de Navarra. En el lugar del castillo hay un monolito en recuerdo a estos. En julio de 2007 se inauguró, además, el Monumento al Resistente Desconocido, impulsado por el ayuntamiento del valle, que se encuentra en el pueblo, al pie del monte.
Amaiur/Maya is a place in the Comunidad Foral de Navarra (Spain), located in the Baztán valley, in the Merindad de Pamplona and 65 kilometers from Pamplona.
Already in the twelfth century it appears under the name of Amaiur, as one of the "holdings" or noble districts of the kingdom of Navarre.
It was a town in 1665 when it was segregated from Baztán until its new addition to it in 1969.
At the top of its mount Gaztelu, was the Castle of Maya where one of the last resistances of the Navarrese to the Conquest of Navarre took place. In the place of the castle there is a monolith in memory of these. In July 2007, the Monument to the Unknown Resistance was also inaugurated, promoted by the valley council, which is located in the town, at the foot of the mountain.
Gallotia galloti palmae, in La Palma. In addition to Gallotia galloti, it is sometimes called "smut lizard". The blight lizard can reach 30 cm in length. Males are somewhat larger than females and have a blue patch on their faces. Black lizard (Gallotia galloti) The black lizard is a very abundant reptile in the Canary Islands, especially in agricultural areas and coastal scrubland. It prefers dry and sunny places, such as rocky areas, especially rock walls, and avoids the laurel forest area. It can live up to 3,000 m above sea level, so it can be found at almost any altitude. Forest roads are a favorable habitat for this species, since it also uses them to move around, as it allows it to stay in the sun during its walks. Being a poikilothermic animal (that is, cold-blooded), it requires clear places where it can warm up on the rock, until it reaches a body temperature that allows it to be active. Feeding Their diet is based on plants and insects; sometimes it eats the grapes cultivated by man, for which it is subject to persecution.
Gallotia galloti palmae, en La Palma.
Además del Gallotia galloti recibe a veces el nombre de "lagarto tizón"
El lagarto tizón puede alcanzar los 30 cm de longitud. Los machos son algo más grandes que las hembras y tienen una mancha azul en la cara.
Lagarto tizón (Gallotia galloti) El lagarto tizón es un reptil muy abundante en las islas canarias, especialmente en las zonas agrícolas y matorrales de las zonas costeras. Prefiere los lugares secos y soleados, como las zonas pedregosas, especialmente paredes de rocas, y evita la zona de laurisilva. Puede vivir hasta por encima de los 3.000 m, por lo que se le encuentra a casi cualquier altura. Las carreteras forestales son para esta especie un hábitat favorable, ya que las utiliza también para desplazarse, ya que le permite permanecer al sol durante sus caminatas. Al ser un animal poiquilotermo (es decir, de sangre fría), requiere sitios despejados donde pueda calentarse sobre la roca, hasta alcanzar una temperatura corporal que le permita estar activo.
Alimentación
Su alimentación se basa en plantas e insectos; en ocasiones come las uvas cultivadas por el hombre, por lo que es objeto de persecución.

They are flowering shrubs in the genus Rhododendron, particularly the former sections Tsutsuji (evergreen) and Pentanthera (deciduous). Azaleas bloom in the spring (May and June in the temperate Northern Hemisphere), their flowers often lasting several weeks. Shade tolerant, they prefer living near or under trees.Azaleas are generally slow-growing and do best in well-drained acidic soil (4.5–6.0 pH). Fertilizer needs are low. Some species need regular pruning. Azaleas are native to several continents including Asia, Europe and North America. They are planted abundantly as ornamentals in the southeastern US, southern Asia, and parts of southwest Europe. In addition to being renowned for its beauty, the azalea is also highly toxic—it contains andromedotoxins in both its leaves and nectar, including honey from the nectar. 24786
My newest addition to my Lake Moraine pictures. It was lightly snowing/hailing out this day so It was a pain to climb to the top but I set up my camera for a 30 second exposure with a ND filter on and saturated those colors in. It was cold, but worth it. I will go back in the upcoming month to get a photo with a lot of snow and hopefully a bright open sky.
Please take a look at my photostream for all my Lake Moraine photos.
Any comments would be welcome.
Thanks,
Darryl
A red Abutilon, aka Chinese lantern, was missing in our garden. A friend did some propagation in our absence and... voila :) !
All is occupied, but feel free to come and visit the public part :)
"Luanes World - Live the Dream", is the newest addition to the Luanes World sims. But as a difference to "Luanes World" @Slice of Heaven and "Luanes Magical World" @ Morning Glow, who are public sims, "Luanes World - Live the Dream" @ Tabara is a residential sim.
The rentals consist of 7 different houses, all with water view.
The rest of the sim is free for all to use, and enjoy.
Note this sim is moderate, so keep everything naughty inside of your house:)
Please respect the privacy of the other tenants - do not contact anybody else, when they are in the privacy of their own home. If you meet them in the public areas, you can of course say hi :)
Price:
Each rental, no matter which house you choose, is 799/week, with a 2 week minimum pay the first time.
After the first payment you can pay between 1-4 weeks at a time.
Prims:
You get 250 prims to decorate the house, and the nearest surrounding with. Please keep within the prim limit, as we all have to share the prims available.
If you need additional prims, you can buy extra prims - in units of 25 prims for 75 linden/week. Write me a notecard if you want your prim limit changed.
Privacy:
Each rental has it's own security orb, and the parcel setting is set to private, so you will be invisible to people from outside the parcel.
You can add people to the security orb, once I have set it up for you.
Music and parcel name and description:
If you want the parcel to have a specific name and/or description, write it in a notecard, and I will add that for you.
Also if you would like a specific music stream, you can put that in a notecard as well, and I will change that for you.
Luanes Residential World Group:
"Luanes World - Live the Dream" @ Tabara has its own group where only tenants will be able to join (as well as subtenants). Only members of this group will be able to rezz on the sim, but the public parts are open for everybody.
Upon renting a house, send me a notecard, and I will invite you to the group, so you can start decorating your new home. Any subtenants you need adding, you put in the notecard as well. Note that this is only needed, if they need to be able to rezz as well.
If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me. If I am not online, please send a notecard, as my IM's get capped.
Sincerely LuaneMeo.

Poppies are flowering plants with delicate, papery petals in a variety of shapes and vibrant hues.
There are more than 70 distinct species in the poppy (papaver) genus, including opium poppies (Papaver somniferum), corn poppies (Papaver rhoeas) and Oriental poppies (Papaver orientale).
Poppies are an excellent addition to mixed beds, borders and cut arrangements.
Thank you, M, (*_*)

These kind of trains on the odakyu line are called romance cars. They take you from Tokyo to a few tourist spots. In addition, they also have the motto 座って帰ろう, meaning "let's return home from work, seated", because these trains have all reserved seats. That's unlike the usual commute trains, where depending upon your luck you stand in the crowd for an hour or a half after all the work you did the whole day.
"A partir d'une figure simple et par la juxtaposition de cette même figure dans les différentes dimensions de l'espace euclidien, on arrive à créer un type de labyrinthe d'une grande complexité spatiale et dont le parcours laisse diverses alternatives: vers la droite et la gauche, vers le haut et le bas."

Ruin of Teylingen Castle
The ruin of Teylingen Castle is a round moated castle that dominates the flat landscape. Originally there was only a ring wall; the keep was added later in the thirteenth century. In addition to the current castle, there was an extensive outer castle, which was also surrounded by a moat. A comfortable and luxurious house was built here in the fourteenth century.
The castle today consists of the still impressive round castle (37 m in diameter) on a castle island surrounded by a wide moat. On the inside of the wall you can see large savings arches on which a wall corridor has been placed. The massive residential building had also been erected against the wall. It is now an empty hull, but it used to have four storeys, the first of which was vaulted. The beam holes of the top floors can still be seen in the interior.
The castle was originally inhabited by the lords of Teylingen. The castle served to protect the Rijndijk and the road to Haarlem. The lords of Teylingen first appear in 1143. It is likely that the lords of Teylingen had borrowed the castle and the surrounding land from a count. In 1282 this family died out in the male line and the castle passed to the count.
The castle was given the function of hunting lodge and forester by the Dutch counts and the feudal man was given the title of forester and actually became a kind of civil servant with responsibility for management.
The most famous forester was Jacoba van Bavaria (1433). She came from the highest noble circles, but due to an unwanted marriage to Frank van Borsele had forfeited her rights to countlessness. She died of TB in 1436.
The castle was badly damaged during the Eighty Years' War. In 1572, during the siege of Haarlem and Leiden, Teylingen fell prey to the Spaniards and was reduced to ruin.
In 1888, the now heavily neglected castle was transferred to the state and the management of the monument was mainly focused on preservation and only since 1933 has further deterioration been prevented by constructive measures.
Since 1 June 2013, the ruin has been managed by: Stichting Beheer Kasteel Teylingen.
This Gothic Temple folly at Stowe in Buckinghamshire is set in one of the world's most famous landscape gardens. It has a spiral staircase, roof terrace and is surrounded by vast parkland to explore. The gothic windows provide vistas of the monuments, lakes and temples in this 18th-century landscape.
This temple, built in 1741, was one of the last additions to the garden at Stowe, formed for Lord Cobham by Charles Bridgeman and his successor, William Kent. That same year, Capability Brown arrived as gardener, to begin his own transformation of the landscape.
Couple packages arrived today including another Vocaloid Miku pullip, Chicca's stock (I had been looking for it for forever!) and several additions to my pinky street army. Besides the most recent releases from the past few years, I think I am now only one or two away from having a complete set of pinky street (excluding the damn dekapins).
The introduction of new ways to decorate an avatar is a surefire way to guarantee that I'll have a new character on the roster. Meet the newest addition to the crew, Tanith Langdon. A flippant little reptilian mutant who keeps to Zaun's shadows... not for any spooky reason. I swear.

Big Day for Maxton Jeffrey, after waiting all day he is here. I think the problem was that he had his Denver Bronco cap on, but I could be wrong. Mom took a few days but she is out of the Hospital to.
Sometimes, I like to boast about something that brought me immense joy, and this camera is just one of those things. It's a beautiful addition to my collection. I am overjoyed with it.

Brrrr it's cold out there. Dress warmly.
This shot isn't anything special given that its just a light unit sitting in the shade. But the location is just so cool that I used my wide angle to just capture the whole scene. This lone YN2 AC4400CW is the local power for Selkirk based B765, the Hudson Grain train here on the old Boston and Albany Hudson and Chatham branch now known as CSXT's Claverack Industrial Track.
In addition to the famous two blocks of street running the train also amazingly cuts right through the middle of the town square park. Sharp eyes will note the Hannukah Menorah lit up for the season, and of course just out of frame at left is a Christmas tree too. The crew had paused for a while by the old depot (and soon to be brewery) then pulled across the crossing and stopped right here in the center of town for another break. The conductor kept the locomotive company while the engineer walked to grab a coffee then chatted it up with a local lady and her dog and even loaded a baby up on the engine for some photos. It was all quite amusing and charming in a strange old fashioned railroading kind of way....I suppose it is that whole juxtaposition of time and place contrasting with the norm of modern railroading that makes this job so appealing to watch. I don't know...forgive my rambled musings...this place is just simply too cool to resist, and it continuely calls me back!

Accepted 2019 APS National Exhibition Nature Birds in Action Section
White-bellied Sea-Eagle
Scientific Name: Haliaeetus leucogaster
Description: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle has white on the head, rump and underparts and dark grey on the back and wings. In flight the black flight feathers on the wings are easily seen when the bird is viewed from below. The large, hooked bill is grey with a darker tip, and the eye is dark brown. The legs and feet are cream-white, with long black talons (claws). The sexes are similar. As in other raptors (birds of prey), Males (2.5 kg - 3.7 kg) are slightly smaller than females (2.8 kg - 4.2 kg).The wingspan is about 1.8 m - 2 m. Young Sea-Eagles are brown as juveniles than slowly become to resemble adults in a patchwork manner, acquiring the complete adult plumage by their fourth year.
Similar species: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle is the second largest raptor (bird of prey) found in Australia. The largest is the Wedge-tailed Eagle, Aquila audax, which stands up to 1 m tall. The Wedge-tailed Eagle is mostly brown, with a wedge-shaped tail. Young Sea-Eagles may be confused with the Wedge-tailed Eagle, but differ in having a paler head and tail and more steeply upswept wings when soaring.
Distribution: White-bellied Sea-Eagles are a common sight in coastal and near coastal areas of Australia. In addition to Australia, the species is found in New Guinea, Indonesia, China, south-east Asia and India
Habitat: White-bellied Sea-Eagles are normally seen perched high in a tree, or soaring over waterways and adjacent land. Birds form permanent pairs that inhabit territories throughout the year.
Feeding: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle feeds mainly off aquatic animals, such as fish, turtles and sea snakes, but it takes birds and mammals as well. It is a skilled hunter, and will attack prey up to the size of a swan. Sea-Eagles also feed on carrion (dead prey) such as sheep and fish along the waterline. They harass smaller birds, forcing them to drop any food that they are carrying. Sea-Eagles feed alone, in pairs or in family groups.
Breeding: White-bellied Sea-Eagles build a large stick nest, which is used for many seasons in succession. The nest can be located in a tree up to 30m above the ground, but may also be placed on the ground or on rocks, where there are no suitable trees. At the start of the breeding season, the nest is lined with fresh green leaves and twigs. The female carries out most of the incubation of the white eggs, but the male performs this duty from time to time.
Calls: Distinctive loud "goose-like" honking call, which is heard particularly during the breeding season.
Minimum Size: 75cm
Maximum Size: 85cm
Average size: 80cm
Average weight: 2 630g
Breeding season: May to October
Clutch Size: Two.

……………………………………………………………………….
All the photos I present were taken in the town of Taormina;
I made photos related to "street photography";
I photographed people who, for the most part, I had never met before, performing their portraits, I thank them for their sympathy and availability;
The volcano Etna, in recent days has shown an intense eruptive activity, I photographed that spectacular eruptions from Taormina;
I tried to capture minimal photographic stories, collected walking down the street .. ... in search of fleeting moments ...
For some photographs I used a particular photographic technique at the time of shooting, which in addition to capturing the surrounding space, also "inserted" a temporal dimension, with photos characterized by being moved because the exposure times were deliberately lengthened, they are confused -focused-imprecise-undecided ... the Anglo-Saxon term that encloses this photographic genre with a single word is "blur", these images were thus created during the shooting phase, and not as an effect created subsequently, in retrospect, in the post-production.
………………………………………………………
Tutte le foto che presento sono state realizzate nella cittadina di Taormina;
ho realizzato foto riconducibili alla “street photography”;
ho fotografato persone che, per la maggior parte, non avevo incontrato prima, eseguendo dei loro ritratti, le ringrazio per la loro simpatia e disponibilità;
il vulcano Etna, nei giorni scorsi ha mostrato una intensa attività eruttiva, anche con intensi fenomeni chiamati "fontane di lava", emissioni a getto continuo perdurate intensamente per molti minuti, di altissime "fontane" di magma incandescente, molto spettacolari e non comuni, le fotografie dell'Etna sono state realizzate da Taormina;
ho provato a cogliere storie fotografiche minime, raccolte camminando per la strada ... alla ricerca di attimi fugaci s-fuggenti ...
Ho utilizzato per alcune fotografie una tecnica fotografica particolare al momento dello scatto, che oltre a catturare lo spazio circostante, ha "inserito" anche una dimensione temporale, con foto caratterizzate dall’essere mosse poiché volutamente sono stati allungati i tempi di esposizione, sono confuse-sfocate-imprecise-indecise...il termine anglosassone che racchiude con una sola parola questo genere fotografico è "blur", queste immagini sono state così realizzate in fase di scatto, e non come un effetto creato successivamente, a posteriori, in fase di post-produzione.

Drama in the studio, lol
Poppies are flowering plants with delicate, papery petals in a variety of shapes and vibrant hues.
There are more than 70 distinct species in the poppy (papaver) genus, including opium poppies (Papaver somniferum), corn poppies (Papaver rhoeas) and Oriental poppies (Papaver orientale).
Poppies are an excellent addition to mixed beds, borders and cut arrangements.
They now are the sad symbol of wars past.
Thank you, M, (*_*)

The Saskatchewan Legislative Building was built between 1908 and 1912 in the Beaux Arts style to a design by Edward and William Sutherland Maxwell of Montreal. The Maxwells also supervised construction of the building by the Montreal company P. Lyall & Sons, who later built the Centre Block of the federal Parliament Building in Ottawa after the 1866 Parliament Building was destroyed by fire in 1916. Piles began to be drilled for the foundations during the autumn of 1908 and in 1909 the Governor General of Canada, the Earl Grey, laid the cornerstone. In 1912, Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, by then the serving governor general, inaugurated the building.

The design contemplates expansion of the building by the addition of wings extending south from the east and west ends and coming together to form a courtyard. The plans originally called for the exterior of the building to be red brick but after construction had begun and red bricks were already on the site, Premier Walter Scott decided that Manitoba Tyndall stone would give the building greater grandeur and the plans were adjusted with the substitution increasing the building cost by $50,000. The total cost of construction came to $1.75 million by the time of its opening in October 1912, ten months after the assembly had begun meeting in the yet-uncompleted building.
Of historical significance, the table that was used during the meeting of the Fathers of Confederation in Quebec City in 1864 resides in the building's library, albeit with six feet of it removed. Lieutenant-Governor Edgar Dewdney of the North-West Territories brought the table to Regina, which was the capital of the territory at the time. It was used in the offices of the Indian commissioner for Manitoba and the North-West Territories until 1896. Six feet of the table length was removed from the middle so that it could fit within the limited confines of the Prince Edward Building, the temporary home of the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan while the Saskatchewan Legislative Building was under construction.
