Realising that the hospital staff, patients and visitors are a valuable source of revenue, Amazon have installed this collection point within Kings Mill Hospital in Mansfield! So easy and convenient!

Not a rare bird in South America. Taken from the canoe in the Amazon basin. Is it just me or does he have really big feet?

From Wednesday 24th November 2021, Go-Coach was asked to provide an additional journey on Fastrack AZ this being a duplicate to the 06:45 Amazon LCY3 to Dartford. Unusually the vehicle used is from the standard fleet and not from the Amazon pool of E400s.

 

On school days it's on the duty which goes on to form the S13 from Wilmington to Sevenoaks Schools, whilst on a Saturday, Sunday and non-schooldays its an Optare Solo. The a.m. duplicate journey ran until Monday 10th January 2022.

 

Pictured here on the first Saturday the smallest bus in the fleet 2801 YJ59 GFG is seen at a very damp Amazon LCY3 before working the 06:45 duplciate to Dartford Acacia Car Park. Saturday 4th December 2021.

The waterlilies were huge and flat and a memorable part of our Amazon adventure.

Amazon Silence

 

Near the estuary of the Amazon River, the water cuts a wide swath through a very sparsely populated land. One morning, I sat by the riverbank next to our camp watching and listening to the world unfold before me. The river moved by slowly but what was very unusual was the silence that surrounded me. The normal jungle cacophony was not to be heard. The thick, overcast clouds seemed to function as a blanket over the entire region snuffing out all sound so that it felt like there was a weighted stillness to the air. The silence was so pronounced that it was as if I could feel it pressing in around me. The grey scale of the image helped to create the feeling of desolation and silence that I was feeling.

... Victoria amazonica is the largest of the Nymphaeaceae family of water lilies... the species has very large leaves, up to 3m in diameter, that float on the water's surface ... the flowers, upto 40cm in diameter, are white the first night they are open and become pink the second night ... they are pollinated by beetles.

photographed at the Amazon Waterlily Pavillion, Adelaide Botanic Garden, South Australia.

footnote: the flower was white when photographed ... a tint was added in post editing.

I take pictures every time you walk. Strolling beneath the hill forest, encountered such a picturesque tree.

Amazon River

Amazon_92920_018F1

The Copernicus Sentinel-2A satellite takes us over northern Brazil on 22 August 2017, where the Amazon River meets the Atlantic Ocean.

 

The sediment-laden water appears brown as it flows from the lower left to the open ocean in the upper right. ‘Popcorn’ clouds are visible in parts of the image – a common occurrence during the Amazon’s dry season, formed by condensed water vapour released by plants and trees during the sunny day.

 

The land varies in colour from the deep green of dense vegetation to light brown. Taking a closer look to the upper-left section of the image, we can see large brown areas where the vegetation has already been cleared away. Geometric shapes indicate agricultural fields, and linear roads cut through the remaining dense vegetation.

 

Rainforests worldwide are being destroyed at an alarming rate. This is of great concern because they play an important role in global climate, and are home to a wide variety of plants, animals and insects. More than a third of all species in the world live in the Amazon Rainforest.

 

Unlike other forests, rainforests have difficulty regrowing after they are destroyed and, owing to their composition, their soils are not suitable for long-term agricultural use.

 

With their unique view from space, Earth observation satellites have been instrumental in highlighting the vulnerability of the rainforests by documenting the scale of deforestation.
