The biggest Kingfisher found in South India and probably the 2nd biggest in the country. A resident bird of the subcontinent and found in a variety of forest / thick woody areas adjacent to lakes, small rivers and possibly coastal areas.
This was a resident in the area we visited and there are maybe 2-3 of them in that area. We sighted only one of them which already started its hunt for the day. The bird feeds on fish, frogs, crabs, rodents and even small young birds. It didn't spend much time and within a few minutes left for the other side of the forest.
Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.

This plant has been growing for the past two years, close to the ground and the leaves were very interesting, so I left it.... this year it sprung up over a foot tall, very sturdy and lots of buds are forming.... it's actually the biggest money plant I've ever had in my garden!!
The biggest cliche in photography is sunrise and sunset.

From our hotel room yesterday morning.
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.

Found within St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Passau, Germany is an organ that was once the largest in the world. With 17,774 pipes and 233 registers, it is now considered to be the largest Catholic church organ in the world and the largest organ in Europe.
Procida is a small island off the coast of Naples. I visited on a day trip from the neighbouring island of Ischia.
The island of Procida can be reached by car ferry and hydrofoil from the ports of Naples, Pozzuoli and the island of Ischia.
There are three ports with the biggest and most important of these being Marina Grande, also called Sancio Cattolico, Facades of different shades of yellow, pink and blue stretch throughout the port.
Over the Marina Grande is the castle where a jail was held until the second half of the 80’s.
It is said that fishermen painted their houses in different colors so that they could recognize them from the sea.
Thank you so much for group cover!!

This is another of My droplets Macro projects.
This is not an easy project.
The wind the unsettle lights the temperature of the water drops, need to be consider.
Timming must be exactly right.
I took all together 40 shots..... & selected this.

Perhaps the biggest photographer's whore in Slovenia, this church has been on my list for many years, unfortunately I'm disappointed by my results, I wish there was some snow in the mountains, and of course mist in the valley floor, which is more common at sunrise. but even that did not happen the next morning. There is no accommodation near this place, every photographer who does this bitch has to deal with at least 30 minutes of winding (slippery when icy) narrow mountain roads
I see, long after A.D. 2000, cities laid out for ten to twenty million inhabitants, spread over enormous areas of countryside, with
buildings that will dwarf the biggest of today’s and notions of traffic and communication that we should regard as fantastic to the point of madness.

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.
This is the first of three postings.

The Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral reef system composed of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 2,300 kilometres over an area of approximately 344,400 square kilometres. The reef is located in the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, Australia.
The Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space and is the world's biggest single structure made by living organisms.[6] This reef structure is composed of and built by billions of tiny organisms, known as coral polyps. It supports a wide diversity of life and was selected as a World Heritage Site in 1981. CNN labelled it one of the seven natural wonders of the world. The Queensland National Trust named it a state icon of Queensland.
A large part of the reef is protected by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, which helps to limit the impact of human use, such as fishing and tourism. Other environmental pressures on the reef and its ecosystem include runoff, climate change accompanied by mass coral bleaching, and cyclic population outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish. According to a study published in October 2012 by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the reef has lost more than half its coral cover since 1985.
The Great Barrier Reef has long been known to and used by the Aboriginal Australian and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and is an important part of local groups' cultures and spirituality. The reef is a very popular destination for tourists, especially in the Whitsunday Islands and Cairns regions. Tourism is an important economic activity for the region, generating over $3 billion per year.
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.
THE BIGGEST MIRROR // North West UK // Formby Beach // FREEWELL Filters - Landscape Photography When plans change you change to make plans. Sunset at Formby beach and an opportunity with a break in the sky, some light after the storms. Scuppered to make my trip to the Lake District, I jumped into the van and headed to the BIGGEST MIRROR in the UK, the receding tide leaving Formby sands like a huge reflective plate of glass. Join me for a walk along the coast using Freewell filters to grab the colour and long exposures of a slow retreating tide.
Thank you to for providing me with this excellent filter system, I've been using an testing for a few months and takes a firm place as my portable filter system. A blog post with my honest review to follow. Please visit Freewell and check out this system here👇

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
