Three comparative views of the South Esk River running through the Cataract Gorge. We are looking towards the First Basin and suspension bridge. The photo on the left was taken on an early morning in May 2020 at the end of a dry autumn. The one on the right was taken late in the afternoon of September 2019. You'll notice that this part of the gorge is largely shaded all day.
The centre shot shows the recent flooding in the Cataract Gorge as the waters were still rising. Now that the rain has stopped water levels are gradually returning to normal levels. Historically however, the centre photo represents something closer to the normal flow of the South Esk River prior to the building of the Trevellyn Dam in the early 1950s.
At the time this was one of the earliest conservation struggles in Tasmania. It was lost, as was the loss of the priceless wilderness around Lake Pedder in the early 1970s. The environmental tide turned however, with the successful anti-dams campaign in the lead-up to the 1983 Australian national elections. No dam has been built in Tasmania since.

view of Ljubljanski Grad (Ljubljana Castle), Tromostovje (Triple Bridge) and old town from Prešernov Trg (Prešeren Square)
Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia, located along a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, north of the country's largest marsh, inhabited since prehistoric times. It is the country's cultural, educational, economic, political and administrative center.
The exact origin of the name Ljubljana is unclear. In medieval times, both the river and the town were also called Laibach in German. This name was used within the region until 1918 and continues to be used in German. In Italian, the city is referred to as Lubiana, and in Latin, it is known as Labacum.
The German name was first documented in 1144, and the Slovenian form appeared in records as early as 1146. The 10th-century work "Life of Gregentios" provides the Greek variant Λυπλιανές (Lyplianes) and situates it among the Avars in the 6th century. This account is influenced by an earlier northern Italian source written shortly after the conquest of 774.
The connection between the Slovene and German names has posed a puzzle for scholars. In 2007, linguist Tijmen Pronk, an authority in comparative Indo-European linguistics and Slovene dialectology from the University of Leiden, provided strong support for the theory that the Slavic ljub- meaning "to love, like" was the most likely origin. He argued that the river's name likely stemmed from the settlement's name. Silvo Torkar, a linguist with expertise in Slovene names, put forth the idea that Ljubljana's name has its roots in "Ljubija", the original name of the Ljubljanica River. This can be traced back to the Old Slavic male name "Ljubovid", which translates to "the one with a lovely appearance". Torkar also asserted that the name "Laibach" is a combination of German and Slovene, sharing its origins with the same personal name.
Prešeren Square (Slovene: Prešernov trg) is the central square in Ljubljana. It is part of the old town's pedestrian zone and a major meeting point where festivals (like the annual Ljubljana Dragon Carnival), concerts, sports, political events, and protests take place. It was redesigned according to plans by Edvard Ravnikar from a funnel-shaped to a circular form in 1987–88 and renovated in 2007.
The Triple Bridge (Slovene: Tromostovje, in older sources also Tromostje) comprises three bridges spanning the Ljubljanica River. It connects the historical medieval town on the southeastern bank with the central Prešeren Square on the northwestern bank. Dating back to the 13th century, it stands as the oldest bridge in Ljubljana. In the early 1930s, the architect Jože Plečnik redesigned and expanded it. In August 2021, the Triple Bridge was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List as part of Plečnik's enduring legacy.

A comparative view of how my local reservoir looks during the two main seasons of Phuket. The dry season reached its zenith during April when we wondered whether it would ever rain again and temperatures were insanely hot. The reservoir has now filled up after what feels like weeks of relentless rain and we're wondering when we might see the sunshine again

Por si sirve de referencia o comparativa, se pueden ver a las dos mariposas juntas. La propia aberrante y su colega con el clásico diseño. Por suerte, también las capté de reverso, así que testimonio completo, pues en cualquiera de los casos tal oportunidad fotera con ejemplares aberrantes y en reunión con sus congéneres no es frecuente que digamos. De por sí ya algunas especies resultan de odisea capturarlas en solitario.
Como se puede observar y es de suponer que por alguna razón genética eclosionó con esa malformación en el estampado del anverso de sus alas superiores. Salvo las manchas amarillo-anaranjado que separan la zona basal de la discal, tanto el espacio basal como el discal y postdiscal están coloreados de marrón muy oscuro. Por supuesto, para quienes no las conozcan o mayor aclaración, la “rara” es la que está situada a la derecha.
In case it serves as a reference or comparison, you can see the two butterflies together. The aberrant herself and her colleague with the classic design. Luckily, I also took them back, so testimony, because in any case such an photo opportunity with aberrant specimens and in a meeting with their congeners is not often to say. In itself and some species result from an odyssey to capture them alone.
As you can see and presumably for some genetic reason hatched with that malformation in the pattern of the obverse of its upper wings. Except for the yellow-orange spots that separate the basal area of the disc, both the basal space and the disc and postdiscal are colored very dark brown. Of course, for those who do not know or clarification, the "rare" is the one on the right.
Si cela sert de référence ou de comparaison, vous pouvez voir les deux papillons ensemble. L'aberrant elle-même et son collègue au design classique. Heureusement, je les ai aussi repris, donc témoignage, car de toute façon, une telle occasion de photographier avec des spécimens aberrants et lors d'une réunion avec leurs congénères n'est pas souvent à dire. En soi et certaines espèces résultent d'une odyssée pour les capturer seules.
Comme vous pouvez le voir et vraisemblablement pour une raison génétique, éclos avec cette malformation dans le motif de l’avers de ses ailes supérieures. Hormis les taches jaune orangé qui séparent la zone basale du disque, l’espace basal ainsi que le disque et le disque postdiscal sont tous deux de couleur brun très foncé. Bien sûr, pour ceux qui ne le savent pas ou ne le savent pas, le "rare" est celui de droite.

Wanted to do a comparative test with my 7d mark 2 on Steve Large's Canon 600 with the 1.4 extender to see how close I would get. Well it turned out to be 1344mm. Steve has a Canon 1DMarkIV with a 1.3 crop. Comes to about 252mm Less. Thanks again Steve.

challenge colourism
Only in recognising and challenging the racism that underpins colourism can we begin to address this pernicious prejudice.

63,650 Staphylinidæ spp classification is ongoing, with some proposing as many as 10 separate ff, but the current favored system is one of 32 sff, ∼167 tbb (some grouped into Stbb) & ∼3,200 gg; ∼400 new spp are being described each year, and some ℮℮ suggest 75% of tropical spp are as yet undescribed.
