After an all day rain I was hoping for a bit of fog to add interest for this harbor scene. Unfortunately, as night fell, the fog dissipated and along with it, so did my imagined composition. Not wanting to leave with an empty memory card, I did grab a few shots of the ice breakup before it got too dark.
Mount Nemrut is a 2,134-metre-high mountain in southeastern Turkey, notable for the summit where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC.
It is one of the highest peaks in the east of the Taurus Mountains.
It was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. The entry states: The mausoleum of Antiochus I (69–34 B.C.), who reigned over Commagene, a kingdom founded north of Syria and the Euphrates after the breakup of Alexander's empire, is one of the most ambitious constructions of the Hellenistic period. The syncretism of its pantheon, and the lineage of its kings, which can be traced back through two sets of legends, Greek and Persian, is evidence of the dual origin of this kingdom's culture.
This pond freezes solid in winter, and during spring melting, the ice collapses into the hollowed out space underneath. Always good to see the softening ice, this pond is one of the last places to thaw in spring.
A year after we received Sara in our house, today she was adopted and left us. We will miss her a lot, but I hope she will be happy with her new family
Every year the bean geese from Siberia come to us in the lower Rhine region of Germany for overwintering here.
Jedes Jahr kommen die Saatgänse aus Sibirien zu uns an den Niederrhein zum Überwintern.
If you ever get the chance to visit Liverpool (and I hope you do) you will soon notice the all consuming obsession with the Beatles wherever you go in the city. If anything time has only added to the legend that surrounds this extraordinary band of four musicians that literally changed the face of music in the early 60s and continued to innovate until their breakup 10 years later. Cheeky, funny, and ultra talented the Beatles reigned supreme in the pop music world for all of that time.
These larger than life bronze statues celebrating the fab four are by sculptor Andy Edwards and sit in the area on the River Mersey referred to as Pier Head, very close to the fabulous Royal Liver building. It's such a popular attraction that it's actually quite difficult to get a shot like this because there are hordes of tourists surrounding the artwork from dawn till dusk, all of them waiting their turn to nestle in amongst the statues for their own 'Beatles moment'. And who can blame them!
There is a steady drip-drip-drip falling from our cabin roof, as the sun melts the snow that remains above us. The temperature's actually reach into the low forties as a daytime high and drop down into the twenties at night. The rivers are breaking up, and the inevitable potholes that dot our roadways have appeared, keeping drivers on their toes.
Doc and I sat on our porch this morning and watched as the mature camp robbers (gray jays) grabbed mouthfuls of suet and fed their little ones. A playful ermine darted about, taking a rest every now and then - on top of our truck tires - while round about him two squirrels were feeling amorous and were running up and down the tree trunks of the large willow trees just outside of our cabin.
I am sure the bears are waking up now, and introducing their newborns to the magical world outside of their dark and musky winter dens. We will now be on the lookout for new tracks left behind in the snow to determine who our latest visitors are. Alaska is finally awakening after months of cold and darkness, and we Alaskans are rejuvenated by it and ready to take on summer and all it has to offer.
The signs of the winter breakup are now long gone. Our temperature is double digit and we are enjoying the sun. Spring has sprung and we are once again out of the hibernation stage.
A number of weeks ago when I was in Banff, Lake Minnewanka was showing signs that spring was on it's way

Solo
Innocent and delicate.
I'm tired of pretending.
I'm done...
What do you do every day? Where are you? Did you eat? Goodnight.
Baby. Darling. Honey. I miss you.
It's all useless.
You got me like (oh, oh, oh)
This is not a touching
Love story (oh, oh, oh)
No romance, no sincerity (oh, oh, oh)
Sorry, but
I’m not sorry.
From today...
I'm a shining solo
I’m going solo
Used to be your girl
Now I’m used to being the GOAT
You’re sittin’ on your feelings
I’m sittin’ on my throne
I ain’t got no time for the troubles in your eyes
This time I’m only lookin’ at me, myself and I
I’m goin' solo, I’mma do it on my own now
Now that you’re alone, got you lookin’ for a clone now
So low that’s how I’m gettin’ down
Destined for this and the crown
Sing it loud like
This is not a touching
Love story
No romance, no sincerity
Sorry, but
I’m not sorry.
From today...
I'm a shining solo
I’m going solo
After the relationship, romance, emotion there's
Breakup, tears, regret, longing.
I like being alone, because I have to be honest with myself.
Like a free wind...
Like the stars above the clouds...
I want to go far away, I want to shine brightly!
Thompson River
Kamloops, B.C.
I hadn't been right down to the shore at this part of the river in quite a while. I didn't realize how much ice was still on it. It's been warm, 10 C or higher, but it's going to take a while for all this ice to go. In the meantime, it's fun to watch little mini-icebergs floating along in the current.
Showing unmistakable and considerable signs of spring thaw, the Robertson River, flowing north out of the Alaska Range is always by it's glacial nature slow to break up.
Here it is showing first signs of spring, with glacial water upwelling to the surface, making the very dense and airless glacial ice underneath glow with turquoise color, which is typical of glaciers.
Not all of the discussion that happen on the boardwalk are good ones. This one didn't end well and the first thing that came to mind was they were planning on having a great cruise together, and then the big break up came.
About 75 square miles of ice broke up during an overnight windstorm and piled up in several places along the east shore of Bear Lake. This huge ice jam is on the Idaho side of the border and we have heard there are similar ice jams in Utah. Maybe I will find time to go there and see for myself.
I love seeing the creeks and streams opening to reveal the beautiful glacial colors of the water that have been hidden beneath the snow all winter. It is still hovering around the freezing mark each morning - but the streams are now flowing, and I am ready to go out and hit the trails.
...in Denali.
On my way back from dinner, I saw these 3 moose sitting on the river - probably missed the crossover before the river ice breakup.
Soon we'll see the ice jam, and this view made my night after long days at work.
