Taken out the truck window on a trip to Glasgow Ky.
Thank you all for your visit comments and faves much appreciated!
Have a great Day.
A look back over the treed plains from along US 287 in Lafayette, CO toward Green Mountain and the line of foothills that form the western edge of the Boulder Valley. This image seemed the perfect candidate for vintage processing--reminding me of the quieter times portrayed in many a picture of the Boulder Valley from archival records. Ironically, a sprawling Walmart Superstore is just out of sight to the left of where this picture was taken.
Check out this nicely done drone video portrait, called Above Boulder, by Kjell Redal, for a look at life in modern day Boulder Valley. Just came across it this morning:
Even though I'm not "caught up" here on Flickr, due to extreme busyness leading up to being out of town till the beginning of October, I thought I'd post this picture from a recent bike ride before my departure. I will be offline with Flickr for several weeks, beginning this weekend. Enjoy the rest of your summer and happy shooting everyone!
Best viewed large!
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves and kind comments! I really appreciate them. Be well all!
if you press L or on the photo itself it will enlarge and then you can see the first words we used to learn in Holland, like aap, noot, mies, wim, zus.

Now I'm back from my short trips to Bavaria and then to my bro, who lives in the Breisgau...
Will catch up next!
Steller's jays are always a welcome sight, but none more beautiful of a time than in the winter. I love to see the contrast between their beautiful tones of blue with black against the white of the snow. On this day, we watched as a group of Steller's jays foraged for food in the hardened snow patch. This jay had found some and tossed them back to swallow. So interesting.
Happy Wednesday!!

Die Viermastbark Peking wieder zu Hause im Hamburger Hafen: Flying P-Liner oder kurz P-Liner nannten Seeleute in der Zeit der Windjammer hochachtungsvoll die Segelschiffe der Hamburger Reederei F. Laeisz. 66 der 86 Segelschiffe, die sich im Besitz der Reederei F. Laeisz befanden, trugen Namen mit dem Anfangsbuchstaben „P“. Dies ist auf eine kleine Bark, die im Jahre 1856 für die Reederei bei H.C. Stülcken gebaut wurde, zurück zu führen. Die Bark wurde nämlich PUDEL getauft – nach dem Spitznamen der Reedersgattin Sophie Laeisz. Heute gibt es nur noch vier erhaltene Flying P-Liner – die POMMERN, die PASSAT, die PADUA und die PEKING. Die PADUA wird immer noch als Segelschulschiff genutzt, während die POMMERN und die PASSAT als Museumschiff in Mariehamn (Finnland) und in Travemünde fest vor Anker liegen. Die PEKING ist aus New York nach Deutschland zurückgekommen und wird nun Museumsschiff in ihrer Heimatstadt Hamburg.
The four-mast boat Peking back home in the harbor of Hamburg: Flying P-Liner or P-Liner for short, sailors in the time of the Windjammer highly named the sailing ships of the Hamburg shipping company F. Laeisz. 66 of the 86 sailing ships owned by the shipowner F. Laeisz bore names with the initial letter "P". This can be traced back to a small bark built in 1856 for the shipping company at H. C. Stülcken. The bark was baptized PUDEL – after the nickname of the shipowner’s wife Sophie Laeisz. Today there are only four surviving Flying P-Liner – the POMMERN, the PASSAT, the PADUA and the PEKING. The PADUA is still used as a sailing school ship, while the POMMERN and the PASSAT are used as a museum ship in Mariehamn (Finland) and Travemünde (Germany) . The PEKING has returned from New York to Germany and is now a museum ship in its hometown of Hamburg.

Many thanks to all those who take the time to comment on my photos. It is truly appreciated.
As normality descends on our household ( children return to school today) so I thought I’d go back to ‘normal’ on Flickr!
Hope you all have a good day and thanks for stopping
A Chesnut-backed Chickadee! The Chickadee landed on our dwarf pine tree waiting for a turn at our Suet feeder. We usually only see the CBCH during the Winter months.

I'm finally trying to get back into the swing of things. Life here in the States has gone a little off the rails, and work has become much more demanding. Finding time to get out with the drone has been like searching for a needle in a haystack.
I was recently in St. Pete, Florida, on the Gulf Coast, and stopped at the Pinellas Bayway South Bridge to capture a few drone shots. It was one of those brutally hot Florida afternoons, and I was on my way to a business meeting, dressed in a suit.
I'm sure the locals were wondering why there was a guy in a business suit standing outside his Jeep, staring into the sky while flying a drone in the middle of the day. 😂
Sometimes you just have to take advantage of the opportunities when they present themselves. I hope you enjoy the photos, and I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone's amazing work again! ✌️😎
A quick pic of my new little piece of heaven. I finally found a corner lot and made good use of it! This is the Trompe Loeil house from Collaborate last month. This is a raw shot in FS from SL, I just played with Windlight and water settings.

Last week, the New Port Mann Bridge opened to eastbound traffic.
At 65 meters wide, it's the world's widest long-span bridge according to the Guinness World Records.

As I review the photos from our Utah trip, I keep going back to the Bryce Canyon National Park. This was a photo from our first day there, April 21, 2023. My eyes kept getting drawn to those areas beyond the Silent City, or Bryce Amphitheater. The object here was what I thought might be a dry water reservoir and/or some part of the Aquarias Plateau.

Hard to pass up another opportunity for 24 hours in Lisbon watching and playing on the trams winding up and down through the old town.
Modern trams, classic trams, funicular cablecars and busses all ply Lisbon's streets, but you visit for the classic 'Remodelados'. The four-wheeled wooden trams date from the 1930s, however the underframes, electrical and running gear were all replaced in the mid 90s. The cars are equipped with both trolley poles and pantographs which are deployed on different sections of the lines.
