After a night of high winds and rain, the next morning can be crystal clear in Shenyang. Bye bye pollution at least for 1 day.

One of many photos taken on what has to be described as the best dog walk Max and I have ever had. The air was crystal clear as there had been an all night storm and the rain brought out so many fabulous things........so many more things to come!

Last Thursday I spent a couple of hours trackside, while on a short stint to northern Italy.
Caldè is a village on the shore of Lago Maggiore I was introduced to by friends last June. It has a nice pebble beach with crystal clear water, a tiny marina and a handful of small restaurants. The 15th century chapel on the Rocca caught my attention. Now, only the second time up there I had the chance to stay for a while and take in the scenery and the action down below on the rails.
The single track line has a considerably dense freight traffic, intertwined with local passenger trains. This intermodal comes off the Gotthard Pass destined for Milan. Five to eight trains per hour is what to expect here. New hunting grounds.

On a crystal clear afternoon, a rebuilt GE leads it's train of empty sulphur hoppers west along the Shantz Sub.

Home of the much-viewed and much-loved Garten Ospreys
this view southwards catches the sun and cloud in a stark, crystal clear reflection.
April snows are diminishing but the the grey shower clouds break to promise a new, fairer season, just around the corner.
A welcome bit of shade from the unusually hot spring day over Easter. This was taken at the end of a long walk, just coming into Grasmere. God I love this place.
The bats of Nitmiluk are truly a sight to behold and to hear, but the set of thirteen gorges itself is magnificent and even 'sublime'. There are pleasant boat excursions of several hours to the second and third ones. At the third gorge you can get off, and a short walk will take you to a crystal clear, relatively large pond into which falls from on high the Lily Pond Falls. Beautiful place, and fine for a swim.
There are lots of plants here as well. One of the beauties is this Osbeckia, Osbeckia australiana. It was first described by the French naturalist and botanist Charles Victor Naudin (1815-1899). No doubt this member of the Melastomataceae came up to Naudin's high standards of 'pure' plants. He opined that 'Nature' abhors hybrids. Charles Darwin used some of his insights, but dispensed with the Frenchman's natural philosophy as a whole.
The great Linnaeus had named the "Osbeckia" for his student and friend and collaborator Pehr Osbeck (1723-1805). Osbeck had travelled widely in India and China (1750-52) and he made his collection of Chinese plants - about 600 of them - available to Linnaeus.
No, I didn't pick this plant to be dried in an herbarium, but left it in the beautiful white light of a Nitmilukan Winter Day. Vaguely you can just see the blue of the pond in the background...
I traveled to northern part of Cebu during my short visit in the Philippines, my wife really scared when I took this shot as I nearly fall down on the cliff that I was standing. She keep asking me why should I go to the cliff and take a shot. She really don't know what I was wanting to achieve on my photograph but unfotunatelly I was not able to. This is not the composition that I wanted, as you noticed that the foreground is not complete. Anyway here it is and hope you like it...

Hope you all have a great Monday!!!
