Me standing by the Big Tree in Redwood National Forest. Almost 300ft (87 meters) tall, and about 1,800 old. Pretty amazing. The trail has many trees like this one.
On 21 August 2017, Big Ben's chimes were silenced for four years to allow essential restoration work to be carried out on the tower.
The aim of the renovation is to repair and conserve the tower, upgrading facilities as necessary, and ensuring the tower's integrity for future generations. The last significant renovation work to the tower was carried out during 1983–85.
The original cost of the project was estimated to be roughly £29 million, but this was then more than doubled, to reach about £80 million.
In a statement, UK authorities said: “The Elizabeth Tower conservation project is due to complete in the second quarter of 2022.

Skye Waterfall Falls

Very thankful for all the continued support! Have a great week! 🌼
I liked the way the foliage framed this upper portion of Rainier's Narada Falls. This is perhaps half of the fall's 168 foot (51 m) tumble. Taken in mid-September when flow was lower. Really roars come spring.
This is the largest waterfall on the Paradise river. A great example of a horsetail waterfall.
"The name Narada was proposed by Arthur F. Knight and adopted in 1893 for the Narada branch of the Theosophical Society of Tacoma. Narada is a Hindu word meaning 'uncontaminated' or 'pure'. Early variants on the spelling include Neradah, and the common mistake of Nevada Falls.
Curiously an 1897 map produced by Henry Sarvant and G.F. Evans marks a "Big Paradise Falls" along the Paradise River which is assumed to represent Narada Falls." worldwaterfalldatabase.com
Just one of the many impressive waterfalls at Rainier National Park.
Yes there is a Caspian Tern in there with the big splash. It came up empty in this dive, but made good nature photography. John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum, Philadelphia PA.
The stretch of Route 1 through the rugged Big Sur Coast is, probably, the most beautiful road I've had the pleasure of driving along. The views are fascinating, and every turn (and there are many) opens up a new perspective. It is a very slow road, and not just because of twists and turns, but also because I feel compelled to stop every few minutes and take pictures or just enjoy the scenery.
Bixby Creek Bridge, seen at the right of the image, is essentially the Northern entrance to the fascinating Big Sur Coast area. Before the opening of the bridge in 1932, residents of the Big Sur area were virtually cut off during winter due to blockages on the often impassable Old Coast Road, which led 11 miles (18 km) inland. The bridge, at 360 feet (110 m), was the longest concrete arch span on the California State Highway System. It is one of the tallest single-span concrete bridges in the world. [Wikipedia] The whole road through Big Sur is an amazing feat of engineering.
My first time seeing Big Ben since the five year renovation project, its great to see if with the scaffolding off. Its looks stunning. This image is a composite where I have replaced the sky with a sky of my own.

As if protected by bigger brothers, a nestled fern lay shielded from the elements, in the Kinnikinnick forest.

Last Sunday I went hiking to Big Snow Mountain. I saw this beauty in sunset hour.
Dasyueshan, Big snow mountain, is a mountain in Taiwan along the Xueshan Range (Snow Mountain Range) with an elevation of 3,530 m (11,580 ft).
Big brother to Yan and sister Smudge.
So friendly that all the neighbours know him. Some of them have had him follow them into their house and sleep on their beds!
Great meerkat impersonator, standing on his hind legs in greeting.
Formidable hunter. Soon to celebrate his 8th Birthday and still has random kitten like moments chasing his own tail and falling off the stairs
