Tokaanu Thermal Walk (20 minutes)
This short walk provides an interesting glimpse of a natural thermal area. See steaming hot mineral pools set in sinter basins and spluttering mud pools amidst the native bush.
For hundreds of years, Maori have used the geothermal resources of this area for cooking, bathing and leisure. Share in this tradition by having a therapeutic and relaxing swim at the nearby Tokaanu Thermal Pools.
Rainbow trout can often be seen here in the cold Tokaanu stream that flows beside the thermal area
Hot pools range in hues of turquoise blue and rich green to burnt orange and sulphuric yellow, making the steaming waters a must-see!
The vibrant colors are caused by miniral and sillicate interference .....
Yellow - Caused by Sulphur
Orange - Is due to antimony
Green - Sulphuran ferrous Salts
My appreciation and thanks to all of you for your comments awards and faves !!!!
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
A modern replica of a Victorian railway station serves as the area's Trail Centre. Adjacent to it is a remnant of the Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo Railway track, with a 1929 executive coach car and a 1931 baggage car donated by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The track was converted into an interurban rail trail, having been abandoned in 1988.

The Under-The-Hill Historic District along Silver Street lies just below the Natchez Bluffs in Natchez Mississippi. This area was frequented by gamblers, river pirates, highwaymen and prostitutes in the early 19th century and was once described as "the most licentious spot on the Mississippi River." Natchez is a port city located on the lower Mississippi River in Mississippi. Print Size 13x19 inches.
While walking in this 'woodsy area', with an open field, I saw a bird swooping around catching bugs. I had obtained a list from the ranger station of birds observed recently and I was able to identify this Northern Beardless-tyrannulet...a lifer for me!
A first image captured with a zoomed in view looking across some eroded formations present in the Grand Canyon landscape. The view is looking to the northeast as I was walking along the Rim Trail to Mather Point one October morning. My thinking in composing this image was to use the "outline” of a trail present across the high points leading off into the distance. While many people, rightly so, attempt to capture that wide angle, vista-like image of the Grand Canyon, here I wanted to focus on just one area and let the eye slowly work its way through the formations present. I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 4 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.

A pair of photogenic mushrooms decorate the grassy area alongside the sidewalk at a rest area on Interstate 26 in South Carolina.
Laurieston Moors Area, we stood here sky watching for birds of prey, there was a Peregrine, the moors looked lovely when the sun shone on them.
There are some rather unusual and spectacular rock formations that rise up out of the thin soil in the Pole Mountain area, which is located in the Medicine Bow National Forest in southeastern Wyoming.

With a change of lodging, we had a bit of time to explore the area. Kathleen Springs was on the way, so we stopped off to check out the trail.
The awesome view from Grizzly Peak above Berkeley California. You can see Berkeley, Oakland, Emeryville and San Francisco. I was able to do some long exposure shots and play with my camera some. I need to come back and see from some different vantage points.

*Probably one of my best shots in 2016. The colors, DOF and contrast between the sky and flowers are outstanding in my opinion. This picture is also the celebration of the Spring season with these beautiful orange colors of nature.
