From my frame of reference, this is an example of centripetal force. The skater might feel fictitious centrifugal force (fictitious because, well, feelings have no place in physics : )). Correct me if I’m wrong -- I never knew a ton of Newton…

An unusually geometric thaw pattern which I've never seen before...perhaps the water's unique celebration of Earth Day.

The Ćićarija (Čičarija for the part in Slovenija, Cicceria for the tiny portion attributable to Italia, or Monte Carso/Mali Kras border ridge, Dolina, Trieste) is a historical mountainous region of northern Istria, formerly inhabited by Istro-Romanian population, which falls within the traditional Karst, the coastal one (Trieste and Gorizia Karst in Italy, Primorska in Slovenia) of the Karst Region extensively understood, the only area of this region belonging to Croatia.
The Ćićarija/Čičarija is geologically the mountainous scar that joins the Istrian peninsula to the European continent, while its morphology is the classic one of the limestone areas at this latitude and altitude (here at just under 700m above sea level) therefore very similar to other areas not considered part of the Karst region, such as the contiguous coastal Gorski Kotar (Rijeka, HR) seen in the previous photos.
Over the geological eras, the rains have softened the appearance of these mountains, but the poor soil roughens the surfaces covered largely by karst moorland (Gmajna) of gnarled grass which for most of the year (between winter frost and summer sun) is golden in color and from which angular rock conformations frequently emerge.
The steppe aspect of these areas, despite the high average rainfall (1600-2200mm/y), is to be found in the porous soil, often dry and poor, beaten by strong winds and the difficulty in developing forests, which would guarantee the biomass (woody residue) for the formation of humus, but here the microclimate of these basins comes into play which, despite their proximity to the Mediterranean but closed in all directions, generate strong night-time temperature inversions (clear skies and calm winds) with minimum values below the freezing point possible for 9 months of the year.
This is always due to the porous calcareous soil which limits stagnation of humidity and exacerbates thermal dynamics with strong daily excursions which make the survival of many species of deciduous tall trees difficult, and, at the same time, the summer heat and drought are not suitable for many trees of the alpine environment, which instead form extensive virgin forests a few kilometers inland, where the extremes of wind, temperature and humidity are softened and where humus can develop.
A ground which freezes deeply in winter and which overheats in summer, sometimes even in the course of the same day, especially in spring, and which does not favor the maintenance of humidity, is clearly an obstacle to the development of vegetation, even if they try, as evident in the photo, with the robust black Pine (Pinus Nigra var austriaca) the only ones to bear such extreme microclimates and large producers of wood residue.
In any case, the karst moorland is a biodiversity that must be maintained, not fought.
This farm caught my eye for its so many angles - the fence lines, the light and shadows, rooflines, even the hay bales were at an angle.
Have a Happy Fence Friday and a Long weekend!

I found this rather unique looking angular shape made of ideally positioned rocks for my foreground. It had the oceans waves washing over it, and helped deliver a softness to the forepart of the image. As well, the evening once again delivered soft palettes of warm colors on the horizon circling the distant island.
All this came after enjoying dinner on the beach and being witness to another peaceful close to another day in Sechelt.
Como la serie dio mucho de si, aqui os dejos otra estampa de la puesta de sol desde otro ángulo.
Gracias a todos por pasar y comentar.
Un saludo.

Having already posted an image of this building some months ago, thought it maybe better to approach it from a different angle
Algunos de los muchos saltos que forman parte de la zona más vertical del barranco de Salenques, albergan unas maravillosas pozas de aguas cristlinas y bello color turquesa.
Son lugares muy aptos para el baño... si se tiene buena resistencia a la gélida temperatura de las aguas. Para hacer esta fotografía me ubiqué dentro del río, llegándome el agua hasta apenas algo más de las rodillas. Unos minutos fueron suficientes para dejarme los pies literalmente anestesiados, jejeje...

El 58mm en formato medio y con este 6x12 se hace realmente angular. Aunque al ser una lente de plástico se echa en falta algo más de calidad en los extremos de la fotografía.

The Rosette Nebula (also known as NGC 2237 and C 49) is a large, roughly circular H II region located on the edge of a giant molecular nebula in the constellation Unicorn. The nebula has an angular diameter of 1.3° and is located at a distance of 1600 parsecs (about 5200 light years) from the solar system; it is approximately 100 light-years in size. At the center of the Rosette Nebula is a bright open cluster known as NGC 2244; the blue stars of the cluster, forming part of the OB association known as Monoceros OB2, emit ultraviolet radiation, which excites the gas of the nebula leading it to emit red light. The stellar wind from the O and B group of stars is thought to exert pressure on the interstellar cloud causing compression, followed by star formation; in fact, many Bok globules have been observed in the region, believed to be the site of star formation.
