… words cannot describe the feeling I got on coming face to face with the famed Torres, the highlight of a 4 day trek through Torres del Paine National Park, Chile. Magnificent and awe-inspiring, it was all I had imagined and more … Happy New Year folks!

I didn't get to end my swan week theme because I got busy doing all kind of other stuff. But here it is. This is a lake in Oslo called Bogstadvannet. I was aiming for 7 swans so I could title it "And a partridge in a pear three" but it didn't work out. Anyway got some good fall moods at least..
I still have a lot of swan material that I didnt see trough so I cannot guarrantee a swan free future:p And still have some more plans. Catching swans in snow would be great.
All my swan shots are now in an album for those who are more than normally interested, like myself.. haha..
I cannot take any of the credit for the composition of this image. The Thistle seeds were wafted by the breeze and then captured in flight by a Small Scabious flowerhead to form natures very own artistic composition. I've just removed the background!
You cannot learn in a vacuum. The whole history of photography is a free and open treasure trove of inspiration. It would be masochistic to deny its riches and usefulness :-)

Monarch butterflies cannot bite, and drink through a long tongue called a proboscis that works like an eyedropper drawing up nectar. Like a retractable garden hose, its tongue coils up under its lower lip when not in use. Once the Monarch butterfly is hatched, it only lives for approximately 2–6 weeks.

I cannot recommend the full-day Denali bus tour enough. There is only one road in Denali National Park. There are no privately owned vehicles allowed past the 15 mile point, and the park operates two bus tours that go further. On our bus tour - the Kantishna Experience - we were able to see several grizzlies. At least 8 of which were no more than 50 yards away.
It rained all day, which made viewing Denali all-but impossible, but seeing all of this wildlife was more than worth the trip. This yearling was with a sibling and their mama foraging for berries. By mid-August, these bears can think of nothing else. They need to gain weight in advance of the winter months when they will be hibernating. They were not disturbed by the diesel bus or the shutters clicking away near by...but this guy did seem to be having enough of the cold rain.
Congrats on Explore!

Impressionen von einer Reise / Impressions from a journey
Since I am travelling I cannot respond to comments, sorry.
It simply takes too long with weak internet
I am back but cannot promise new photos any time soon. Instead, here is a very, very old photo.
Morlaix is a small town in Brittany. It's claim to fame is a railroad viaduct, a feat of XIX c. engineering. But this is not it. It is old stairs with a gutter in the middle on Rue des Vieilles Murailles that leads from the charming old center up the hill where the castle once stood.
“It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills,
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

I cannot believe its over a decade since I visited Fountains Abbey in North Yorkshire given its relatively close by to me . Mind you in Yorkshire we are spoilt for choice if you want to visit historic monasteries as well as Fountains there are other historic abbeys at Jervaulx, Bolton, Whitby, Rievaulx, Kirkham and Byland all well worth a visit.
Fountains abbey sits on the banks of the River Skell in North Yorkshire. It is one of the largest and best preserved ruined Cistercian monasteries in England. Founded in 1132, the abbey operated for 407 years, becoming one of the wealthiest monasteries in England until its dissolution, by order of Henry VIII, in 1539.
The medieval architecture is superb, including a surviving 168 ft. tower. It is regarded as one of the finest monastic sites in Europe and is classed as a World Heritage site.
The shot looks onto the West door of the Nave with a view of the tower
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM. I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .
Lara has become part of our family for some time now... We found her abandoned in the streets and she was in a very bad shape... I cannot believe there are people that do this to animals! Those people don't deserve even the oxygen they breathe!..
Since we adopted her she has become a totally different dog. She is now very happy and very good friends with Lucky! Of course she is always with us where ever we go!
Lara has a family now! She is an adorable dog and we do our best to make her feel happy!
So here she is! I present you Lady Lara!

We cannot pluck a flower without disturbing a star.” ..... Whatever the mood or the circumstance, the essence of its quality may linger in the silence that follows.
The wonders of Mother's Nature and it's pure beauty to shine out its love; which is all around us to see from the elegance, that can be achieved when all that is superfluous has been discarded and the human being discovers simplicity and concentration: the simpler and soberer the posture, the more beautiful it will be.
This sweet flower is known to be Ohio Spiderwort(Widows Tears/Bluejacket) and I just loved the way it popped out its gorgeous colour of dazzling purplish-blue, and its cool yellow tears to me here!
Many thanks to you here, for your cool comments and compliments, my cool flickr friends !!!
Thanks to the persistant pioneering of the Frisian-Groninger farmers and monks the current dyke construction ensures that the low hinterland can no longer flood by the sea.
But nevertheless, the sea can still be furious in this area.
Pay attention to the water level of the sea and the level of the hinterland, which is clearly below sea level at high tide!!

~True friendship cannot be forged overnight. It has to be tested by time over and over again. Thank you for being my true friend and my only soulmate!
It’s hard to meet people in life who are willing to give everything without the hope of any return. I call myself lucky because I have someone like that in my life. It’s you!
You have always been there in my hard times and my heartbreaks. I thank god everyday for blessing me with such a true friend like you my sweet Beth♥~

"I Rise"
We cannot let ourselves be changed by hatred.
We can change the oppression of women if we speak up, stand together, and rise.
You can recognize survivors of abuse by their courage. When silence is so very inviting, they step forward and share their truth so others know they aren’t alone.

For some reason this quote came to my mind immediately when I took this photo. It may have to do with the dark times we are going through and the fact that we all need some light to cheer us up. This is why I chose this photo for this week's theme 'Quote' of the 'Smile on Saturday' group.
Cannot seem to comment. Flickr is acting up....
It is annoying!!
Sometimes it is difficult getting the right look in a fence shot. Sometimes it is the editing that brings it to life.

The Bridges of Madison County – Standing in the Rain
The greatest influence on our lives
at the time is not always known
but looking back I see the truth of it
now the most beautiful of us has flown
we didn't always see eye to eye
but made our peace and recognised something more than love
so gentle and so fragile; mutually in sync
a poet and another poet flying high above
you hid your deepest secret very well
I did not guess and that was your intention
you knew my heart would break and I would fall
but don't you know you made me strong; did I forget to mention
some of all the poetry we shared
the thoughts; the impossible maths that disappeared
into the ether long ago before we reconciled
and only fragments of the fire remain to whisper in our ears
to infinity and far beyond we said ...
I look up at the newest, brightest star
and everything I feel is still remembered
will last the distance no matter how near or far
Remember, mon cher, the words I wrote to you
they are imprinted on my soul forever
you reached out and touched my life in ways I cannot still explain
you are irreplaceable; you know that I will never
forget the codes and seemingly nonsensical ways of our communication
to anyone else that saw it; must have thought
who are these two; these poets; who do they think they are
but it does not matter; all that matters was that you taught
to look beyond the ordinary everyday things of our existence
to reach for stars into infinité
I am risen up to be a better person; little é and much more
you are infinite, mon cher ami …

The other plants you passed up because
they were too prickly or
too ugly...
they were the safe ones.
Me, I am intoxicating
my beauty is transfixing.
You cannot resist admiring
or leaning in.
But, the joke is on you, fool.
Because I am going to eat you alive
Devour you like the carnivore I am
and eat your heart out first.
The other plants will watch in terror
In a way, they are weak of heart and spirit
They spend all their energy
trying to get you to trust them.
Yet, you fall prey to me!
Devoured like a sworn enemy
and yet, I have nothing against you
except maybe you should have heeded the words...
Don’t ever trust in the unkindness of beautiful strangers.

Taken two hours and ten minutes before the previous shot. Further back in my photo stream there are some LE shots taken on the same afternoon once the tide was in and on the turn. There is only one thing you do when faced with an ocean like this and that is stick your camera on a tripod and use a remote release and hang on tight to the tripod then just stand and stare. Even now I remember it vividly because not being primarily a landscape photographer and only getting shots when away on holiday I can truthfully say that I personally have never witnessed anything like this before or since........
Truly unforgettable, even if for many it is not particularly remarkable...
Thank you so much everyone for all your thoughtful, wonderful and kind comments. I cannot convey really how much your support means to me - but please believe it is possibly and most probably more than you will ever know…Sue x
