We are now approaching the Gate of Supreme Harmony. This is the second major gate in the south of the Forbidden City. The gate was originally built during the Ming dynasty, when it was called Fengtianmen. It burned down in 1886 due to a fire started by a tipped lamp in the guard room. The present gate dates from the rebuilding after this fire, which was completed in 1894. More notes in the next caption. (Beijing (Peking), China, May 2017)

Well this isn't a typical Savannah Shot found at Harvey Travel post cards, but thought it was beautiful the storm clouds were gathering and I couldn't resist snapping the shot, had to set up my tripod quick as the storm was approaching fairly quickly.
back to the bosque for a couple... This was taken right before dawn as the snow geese were gathering for a dawn ascension.
Driving to the NASA Chris Hadfield factory near New Orleans. There's lots of overhead electrical cables that supply energy to the factory and its electric arc furnace.

This scene near the southern entrance to Seymour Narrows in British Columbia may look placid, but that's only because the currents are slack.
Captain George Vancouver described Seymour Narrows as "one of the vilest stretches of water in the world."
Currents can reach speeds of 15 knots, or 17 miles per hour. That may not seem like much, but it's terrifyingly fast if you're in a boat. On top of that, when the currents are running, these are some of the most turbulent waters in the world.
As if that weren't enough, until 1958 Ripple Rock compounded the hazards of transiting Seymour Narrows.
According to Wikkipedia:
"Ripple Rock was a submerged twin-peak mountain that lay just nine feet beneath the surface of Seymour Narrows. It was a serious hazard to shipping, sinking 119 vessels and taking 114 lives. On April 5, 1958, after twenty-seven months of tunneling and engineering work, Ripple Rock was blown up with 1,375 tons of Nitramex 2H explosive making it the largest commercial, non-nuclear blast in North America."
