DAZZLINGLY ATTRACTIVE bird, not often seen in our corner of Kent UK, and was not expecting to see it in the Grove Ferry Feast Hide, but what a joy when it landed, he caught a couple of tiddlers and was off, leaving me with the biggest grin ever.

Marsh wren (Cistothorus palustris)
A sputtering, bubbling song among the cattails is a giveaway that the Marsh Wren is at home.
Some birders have tagged the Marsh Wren the "Heinz 57 variety" bird, because scientists have recorded 57 different variations of its song, one of the biggest repertoires in the bird-world!
And nightfall doesn't faze these birds. A male may sing straight through the night.
Marsh Wrens usually forage out of view, hopping up only for brief moments.
Industrious male Marsh Wrens build "dummy nests" in their nesting territories, occasionally up to twenty or more; most of these are never used for raising young, but the adults may sleep in them during other seasons.

This cottonmouth snake was huge. One of the biggest that I have seen. It was sunning on the warm pavement when I was driving to go biking. I stopped to see if I could encourage it to move, but it was enjoying the sun too much. The road is lightly travelled and when I left the park later the snake was off of the road.
is England’s biggest waterfall, spectacularly drops 70 feet (21m) into a plunge pool below.
From its rise as a trickle, high on the heather covered fells at the top of the North Pennines, to the top of the whin sill rock at Forest -in-Teesdale, the River Tees steadily grows and gathers pace.
Please enjoy the scenic details in Large. Thank you so much for your visit!
The mercury reads 25 below celsius and i'm perched on top of the Wayne tunnel on BNSFs spectacular Laurel Sub. Running from Mossmain (Laurel) to Great Falls it only sees a handful of trains north of Walter Jct.
One regular is the LMON8661 or what crews dub the Lost Local, which runs once a week south to Moore on the Lewistown Sub and then back north to Great Falls the next day working customers along the way. Once on the other side of the tunnel the tracks head downhill into Armington located in a valley situated between the Highwood and Little Belt ranges. As the cold temperatures and snow wrecked havoc on the Montana Division, the train would only be running as far as Mocassin where the CMR interchange is located.

More images from the Market Hall in Rotterdam.
The unique €175m Markthal building was designed by Dutch architectural firm MVRDV and has helped put Rotterdam firmly on the world map. Made up of a large 40m high archway, it offers a covered market area the size of a large football pitch with around 100 food stalls and 20 shops and restaurants. Each end is sealed by a glass façade to keep out the weather. The building is 70m wide and 120m long and contains no less than 228 apartments. Each has an outside terrace whilst half of the apartments also have triple-glazed windows overlooking the market.
Perhaps the most striking aspect of the Markthal is the huge psychedelic artwork on the inner wall featuring colourful fruits, grains and vegetables. Called the Horn of Plenty, it was conceived by Arno Coenen and Iris Roskam and is made up of 4,000 separate tiles covering 11,000 m². It is thought to be the biggest artwork in the world.
Also the windows in the roof are apartments so people also live within the complex.
FINALIST
Fashion’s biggest night, the annual Met Gala, marks the opening of the Costume Institutes’ annual fashion exhibit with "Out-of-this-World" high fashion theme statements.
For “A Night at the Met Gala,” I selected the LUXE Paris INNOCENCE gown to literally portray the surreal - a majestic angel in the night's sky who comes down from heaven to earth with a glow of celestial elegance, beauty and innocence to provide love, comfort, and caring.
I believe that there is a window to the soul from which angels pass through to travel between heaven and earth. In today's turbulent and uncertain times, there is no better way to express hope for humanity than to believe in angels.
To complement my gown, I am adorning white angel wings and feathered plumage from the SWANK Event's City of Angels theme event; ZURI Asha embossed sterling earrings; a baroque sterling silver necklace; a blond up-do with silver wing hairpins and halo; white pump heels and a white paisley body tattoo.
For cosmetics, I am wearing Ever An' Angel designs Tone 2 Just a Dusting Eyeshadow, Traveler's Lipstick, and Crystal Magic Mani Pedi Nails.
The Church of Edward the Confessor
Situated in the Market Place, Romford, RM1 3AB. The earliest known house of worship was built in 1177 and was known as St Andrew’s Chapel. This building was demolished in the 14th century after many years of neglect. A new church was erected towards the end of the 14th century and completed in 1410. This was dedicated to The Virgin Mary and Edward the Confessor. Originally built with a Nave, a Chancel and extended North Aisle. It also featured a brick tower for five bells. Later a gallery was built for a charity for orphaned children. In 1710 it was renamed St Edward’s School and was later moved to another part of Market Place in 1728.
The church building was still in use but again fell into disrepair then work on a new church on the same site was started in 1844 and in 1849 the last service was held in the old church, then it was demolished. Only Blore’s chapel remained and was used as a burial yard until 1953, when this was also demolished.
The new building was consecrated in 1850 by Bishop of Rochester, George Murray. He was resident of Danbury Palace, Danbury, Essex. Architect John Johnson designed the church (he also designed Alexandra Palace). The church was designed in ‘Gothic Style’ and built from Kentish ragstone, it also used materials from John Nash’s in Regent Street. There are many carved heads situated in the church and this is thought to be the explanation of their being there.
It did suffer some war damage, but only minor. The biggest loss was the bells were used in the war effort and in 1944 a set of chime bells and an electric clock were installed.
Since then, major renovation work was completed in1988 and again in 1992. A new organ was installed in 1979 and in 2001 a statue of Edward the confessor was installed in the main porch.
Legend
There is a legend that the name Havering, a district close by to Romford, was named after a connection to Edward the Confessor and St John the apostle in the form of a ring. This was commemorated in a stain glass window of 1407, in the old chapel. I believe that this window does not exist now but a more modern one was installed in 1850 the 600th anniversary of the church.

El Árbol del Tule (Spanish for The Tree of Tule) is a tree located in the church grounds in the town center of Santa María del Tule in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, approximately 9 km (6 mi) east of the city of Oaxaca on the road to Mitla. It is a Montezuma cypress (Taxodium mucronatum), or ahuehuete (meaning "old man of the water" in Nahuatl). It has the stoutest tree trunk in the world. In 2001, it was placed on a UNESCO tentative list of World Heritage Sites, but was removed from the list in 2013.
In 2005, its trunk had a circumference of 42.0 m (137.8 ft), equating to a diameter of 14.05 m (46.1 ft), an increase from a measurement of 11.42 m (37.5 ft) m in 1982. However, the trunk is heavily buttressed, giving a higher diameter reading than the true cross-sectional of the trunk represents; when this is taken into account, the diameter of the 'smoothed out' trunk is 9.38 m (30.8 ft).[2] This is slightly wider than the next most stout tree known, a giant sequoia with a 8.90 m (29.2 ft) diameter.

🇲🇽 El Arbol de Tule
El Árbol del Tule es el árbol con el diámetro de tronco más grande del mundo. Su edad real es desconocida, pero según estimaciones es de más de 2000 años. Es un ahuehuete (Taxodium huegelii C.Lawson 1851, conocida por su sinónimo Taxodium mucronatum Ten. 1853) con una circunferencia de copa de aproximadamente 58 metros y una altura de 42 metros. Con un tronco de diámetro de 14,5 metros, se estima que serían necesarias al menos 30 personas con las manos entrelazadas para poder abarcarlo y en su sombra caben aproximadamente 500 personas. Los lugareños le han encontrado diferentes formas al tronco como son de 'duende', 'cocodrilo', 'delfín', 'cabeza de venado', entre otras. Su volumen se calcula en unos 816,829 m³, con un peso de aproximadamente 636 toneladas, cuando en 1996 se inició el corte de la madera inerte se produjeron 10 toneladas. Se localiza en el atrio de la iglesia de Santa María del Tule en Oaxaca, México, aproximadamente a 12 km de la capital del estado, Oaxaca de Juárez, sobre la carretera a Mitla. (Wikipedia)

gehört das Fotografieren von Lichtskulpturen ...
denn meist erhällt man nicht die Originalfarben, sondern helle Farben werden zu Weiß, oder der Raum gerät proportional zu dunkel ... und der von den Künstlern erzielte Effekt tritt nicht zutage ...
Bei diesem Bild bin ich zufrieden ... hoffe ihr auch ...
English
One of the “biggest challenges” is photographing light sculptures ...
because most of the time you don't get the original colors because bright light colors become white or the room becomes proportionally too dark ... and the effect achieved by the artists is not revealed ...
I am satisfied with this picture ... I hope you are too ...

Seeing the nasturtium leaves with raindrops in them has been quite a rarity here for the past six years, but for once June has produced some precipitation which is a relief for the garden and a photo opportunity for me.

Someone called Paul said the other day :
Nature is patient, Nature is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Nature does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Nature never fails
and brings up love
