I was very surprised to see this colony of Double-crested Cormorant coming in together as if there was an early morning meeting before tackling the day. One needed a wide angle. In one of my pictures, I counted over a hundred birds. Very impressive to see.
GEC Alsthom built 1995 Stock arrives and departs Clapham Common station, once the terminus of the City & South London Railway prior to the extension to Morden opening in 1926.
Reminiscent of many a WWII scene, B-17 Flying Fortress 'Sally B' returns to earth after her evocative display at the 2016 RNAS Yeovilton Air Day.
She's been delighting us for over 40 years now since first arriving in the UK back in 1975. Let's hope she remains that way.

Yeats made a prophecy in this poem over 100 years ago after World War I
....sadly our world is headed in this direction.
"Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?"
WB Yeats
Happy to see Wahclella Falls again after the trail was re-opened on August this year after 2 years closure due to Eagle Creek Fire (Sep 2017).
There are still a lot of trees and vegetation recovering after the fire but Nature is still beautiful and it's showing it off like these Falls.
Thanks to all that work hard to make this trail ready again for us.

We spent the weekend in Madeira Beach (near St. Petersburg, FL), and left yesterday right before they declared a mandatory evacuation. Hurricane Ian is headed that way and expected to arrive tomorrow.
This is from an Apple 48MP RAW format DNG file, processed in Lightroom (which doesn't have a profile yet for this sensor / lens).

I'm not posting too much at the moment as I'm having a massive reorganisation of all my photos having just acquired an enclosure and some big (10TB) disk drives rather than the assorted external hard drives that have been failing me for many years. So far so good but I'm also taking the opportunity to consolidate and have a couple of copies of everything.
I’m honored to be featured in the Contrasted Gallery here on Flickr starting on August 20. Special thanks to Diane Powers and the rest of administrative team.
