Lowly gulls nest among the rocks under the cormorants higher up in the trees on this bird colony in the St. Lawrence.
Literally bottoms up, this is the base of an Old Pulteney whisky bottle. The bottles have a seafaring theme on them due to the location of the distillery in Wick which was a major herring port at one point. The distillery is the most northerly on mainland Scotland. The seafaring imagery is carried through to the base of the bottle with what I take to be a ship's wheel set inside a guiding star or compass points.
Inspired by the 2016 Rio Olympics, these two mallards were practicing to try out for the synchronized swimming team in 2020. In reality, I caught these two in the perfect synchronized eating moment in the reflecting pool on the Washington Mall. This was between the WWII memorial and the Lincoln Memorial.

We see them in the supermarket and many of us eat them, so for this weeks theme of Bottom, I have chosen to photograph the bottom of a Blueberry on the bottom of a tea spoon. HMM
Macro Mondays - Bottoms Up
I was quite busy early in the week, so I didn't even start thinking about this theme until Saturday. I struggled to think of something interesting and original. I discussed it with my wife and still had nothing. Then it hit me. I have used lavender in my Macro Mondays photos for the past two weeks, so I decided to make it three in a row. I have been transplanting lavender starts and the roots (bottom of the plant) are interesting. I took this photo in front of a large lavender plant, so there is bokeh lavender in the background. HMM

I experienced Canyon de Chelly from both its rim and its bottom lands. The experience was truly awesome.
The canyon was inhabited by pueblo-dwelling peoples hundreds of years ago and it still a summer home to many Dineh (Navajo) families today. The canyon is located in the Navajo Reservation in Chinle, Arizona. I spent three nights in Chinle.
The bottom of the canyon is illed with loose sand and in the dry season a jeep ride through it is like an ocean ride in choppy water in h high-speed motor boat. What an experience! With the help of our local guides we learned about the historic and present relationship between the canyon and the Dineh.
While I was able to take photos of the abandoned pueblos and petroglyphs, I'm focusing upon the land in this trio. I was not able to take phots of modern Dineh dwellings, land, or people because doing so went against their customs.
Note: I am posting the shot with the vehicles driving in front of the jeep I was in to give a sense of proportion

I don't know what this particular bird is trying to find ? But it's got to be down there somewhere!
" I'll need a snorkel soon ! " this bird was heard muttering earlier!

Apologies to anyone stood gazing out to sea on Llandudno Pier on 18 July 2016, I took advantage of an unusual photo opportunity.
I think it makes a half decent picture & I have left the faces out to protect the innocent.
This is on the outskirts of the historic West Bottoms district in Kansas City, Missouri. Many of the original brick buildings are still standing but most are abandoned. This area was the center of the cattle industry in Kansas City during the late 19th and early 20th centuries...there was a huge stock yard that has long since been torn down. The area was serviced by an extensive rail network which shipped beef in and out to and from all over the United States. There are plans to revitalize the area with apartments and shopping and indeed the abandoned building in the background will soon be demolished to make room for apartments. I hope whoever develops this area maintains as much of the historic flavor as possible. Captured with my Fuji GW690ii on Shanghai GP3 100, 220 film. Developed with Xtol at 1:1.
Of all the shots in Kansas City this location was probably tops on my list. The amazing amount of surviving warehouses and industrial buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries in this neighborhood offer such visual appeal. Coupled with the snaking trackage, elevated vantage point, lack of fencing, ease of access, substantial train traffic and variety it is truly a superlative location that simply begs to be photographed!
Located immediately west of downtown at the confluence of the Missouri and Kansas Rivers it is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city. Historically the bottoms was an area of trade for Indians and French trappers, thus prompting the original name, 'The French Bottoms.' Construction of the first railroad in the city began in 1863 and only 15 years later so many new lines had been built to and from the city that the many fledging roads chose to build a union depot. The location chosen was right here in the West Bottoms which had rapidly blossomed as a commercial center after the Kansas City stockyards were established in 1871.
The gorgeous Gothic Revival station located here soon turned out to be in a less than ideal location, and after it was swamped by a devastating flood (the area is called the bottoms for a reason after all!) in 1903 the roads all came together to form the Kansas City Terminal Railway and build the new route and even grander Union Station on higher ground that I wrote about earlier. After the present station opened in 1914 the old station here was razed a year later.
But the junction and associated area was still called Old Union Station, and the bottoms continued to flourish as a commercial and livestock center. To learn a bit more about Old Union Station check here: kchistory.org/week-kansas-city-history/bottoms
A devastating flood in 1951 decimated the bottoms and led to the closure of many businesses that never reopened, though the stockyards recovered partially and stayed in business until 1991 (though I'm unsure when the last livestock moves by rail were). That flood also swept away the old wooden interlocking tower here, and the brick one seen in the background replaced it that year. Still owned by the KCT, I'm unsure when it was closed, but it makes a great background prop nonetheless.
A couple noteworthy buildings rise behind the train. To the left and above the train and tower is one of the oldest buildings in the bottoms, the circa 1879 Deere, Mansur and Company building. The company manufactured plows, cultivators, planters, stalk cutters, hay rakes and other implements and was the Kansas City branch of the John Deere Moline Plow Works. Holsum Food Products, whose faded name still adorns the brick, later occupied the building and now the structure has found new life as artist studios.
The architecturaly significant seven story masonry structure to the right is the circa 1902 Avery Manufacturing Company building. If it seems to have a spooky air to it that would be logical as it was last used as The Chambers of Poe haunted house. I was amazed to learn that the haunted house industry has led the way in the revitalization of this area that has only just recently begun.

But anyway, you're here for the trains and this was a nice one. An unidentified BNSF manifest curls north on the 80 Track near MP 9.5 on the KCT north south corridor led by boring gevo BNSF 5896. But trailing were two nice quarter century old units flying the BNSF's predecessors' colors albeit a bit battle worn. BNSF 9592 is an EMD SD70MAC blt. Apr. 1995 as Burlington Northern with the same number only a few months before the merger. Trailing is BNSF a GE C44-9W blt. Sep. 1997 some two years after the merger but nonetheless delivered in the famed Santa Fe red and silver warbonnet scheme.

Seen from the bottom of Cheltenham Badlands in Caledon, Ontario. The formation is mostly red in colour due to iron oxide deposits, with some faint blue-green streaks caused by ground water percolation. It's a very warm winter day, so the snow is melting but the remaining patches of white make an interesting pattern.

SAXLEHNER`S BITTERQUELLE HUNYADI JANOS
Eine alte Grünglasflasche aus der Zeit um 1900 mit einer erhabenen Bodenprägung. Die Flasche war mit einem Heilwasser gefüllt, das in der Nähe von Budapest der Erde entspringt. Das Wasser enthält einen hohen Anteil Magnesiumsulfat - ein bitter schmeckendes Salz mit abführender Wirkung, daher die Bezeichnung Bitterquelle.
Der Eigner der Quellen war ein Andreas Saxlehner, der das Wasser in umfangreichen Fabrikanlagen in Flaschen abfüllte
und zum Versand in die ganze Welt brachte. Das Wasser war markenmäßig benannt nach Hunyadi Janos, einem ungarischen Staatsmann und Heerführer im Mittelalter.
Das Wasser wird seit 1863 vermarktet und ist auch heute noch im Handel.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. The eye contact makes this shot and brings a 'Fun for Friday' addition to my light-hearted collection. An underwear promotion with some yoga on Buchanan Street. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead, enjoy!
We are close to the shortest day of the year and here in Northwest Germany we really feel the short days and the reduced sunshine. No excuse not to go out for a hiking tour along River Weser in Vlotho, Ostwestfalen, Germany
