También llamada Hindú Rope, tiene las hojas retorcidas como arrugadas, y cuelgan como grandes trenzas compactas y pesadas...de alllí el nombre. las flores son pequeñas pero forman una perfecta pelotita de ping pong! Las flores son tres milímetros menores que la carnosa común .
Fue publicda en "The Hoyan" en 1990.
Lamentablemente, luego de diez años, la he perdido este invierno. Ahora, me ha quedado un esqueje y a comenzar otra vez .
La fotografía la ha tomado mi hijo que ya tiene su planta bastante grandecita , es hija de la que he perdido!

Mira las nubes
como pastorean por el cielo,
míralas paseándose por el ancho firmamento;
míralas tan gentiles y se parecen
a quienes caminan por otros cielos.
A veces tan plácidas, inmóviles, hieráticas
cual místicos guerreros.
A veces laboriosas, apretujadas,
como pidiendo dádivas al viento;
inoportunas, bulliciosas,
despertando incluso hasta a los muertos.
A veces recias, majestuosas;
tan compactas
como dueñas de todo el universo.
A veces complacientes, diligentes,
lisonjeras; presuntuosas
con sombra y agua
que es pan para el sediento.
A veces...lentas peregrinas,
tan inmóviles... como si quisieran
detener el tiempo.
Mira las las nubes
como nosotros,
pensativas, gigantes, monumentales,
tumultuosas, solitarias, figurativas;
incólumes, tormentosas,
pequeñas como copitos
y como a muchos,
a todas... A todas
las trae y se las lleva el viento

I hope that this photograph answers the question that was posed on the internet: "I'm looking for a compact camera and I am looking at the Lumix DMC-TZ80. Now reading reviews online are giving me mixed feelings. I see a lot of comments about how it takes bad pictures... So the question is, is it the camera or just the way people are using it?"
This is an uncropped zoom shot from the Lumix DMC-TZ80. I doubt I could have achieved a better result even with my 45.7 MP Nikon D850. And this compact camera has 18 MP. So you see, it's not about the sensor size or the specs of a particular camera. It is all about the light and composition.
Geranium est un genre de plantes herbacées sauvages de la famille des Geraniaceae.
Le genre comporte environ 430 espèces répertoriées, distribuées partout dans le monde.
GÉRANIUM VIVACE ELKE
Nom latin : Geranium sanguineum Elke
Les géraniums vivaces sont d'excellentes plantes de jardin résistantes au froid et fleurissant généreusement chaque été. Le géranium vivace Elke est une plante vivace compacte et bien fleurie de mai à septembre (à longue floraison). Elle est utilisée pour décorer les massifs, bordures de massif, rocailles ou au pied des rosiers par exemple. Elle forme une touffe compacte composée de nombreuses tiges aux feuilles découpées vert moyen émaillées de nombreuses fleurs rose violacées à coeur blanc.
Le géranium sanguin (Geranium sanguineum) appartient à la famille des Géraniacées et se retrouve naturellement dans de nombreuses contrées d'Europe. Il s'adapte en toutes régions même les plus froides puisqu'il résiste jusqu'à -20°C. Tout type de sol convient, même médiocre mais il poussera d'autant mieux qu'il sera riche et frais.
D'après :
Pied-billed Grebes are small, chunky swimming birds. They have compact bodies and slender necks, with relatively large, blocky heads and short, thick bills.
They have virtually no tail.These are brown birds, slightly darker above and more tawny-brown on the underparts. During spring and summer, the crown and nape are dark and the throat is black. While breeding, the bill is whitish with a black band (“pied’), but otherwise is yellow-brown. Juveniles have striped faces.Pied-billed Grebes can adjust their buoyancy and often use this ability to float with just the upper half of the head above the water. They catch small fish and invertebrates by diving or simply slowly submerging. They build floating nests of cattails, grasses, and other vegetation.
Finally we are getting closer to these very weary birds who at the sight of man vanish.

The Elite, or Lotus Type 14, was the first purpose-designed road coupe from the innovative mind of Colin Chapman, founder of Lotus Cars (1952). This endeavor followed his open Six and Seven roadsters and a series of very successful sports racers, starting with his first fully enclosed aerodynamic 1954 Lotus Mk VIII.
Chapman’s approach was always to “add lightness,” instead of moving to bigger, heavier engines. He achieved this for the Elite by pioneering an all-fiberglass monocoque with only localized steel reinforcement. The 1953 Corvette showed the potential of a fiberglass body on a steel chassis, but Chapman took it a step further. The Elite was entirely fiberglass, including its load-bearing structure. Suspension parts and the front subframe supporting the engine, bolted directly to three box sections molded into the fiberglass body. His advanced glass-reinforced composite body panels were lightweight and cost-effective but, more importantly, it was the world’s first fiberglass monocoque production car.
The curvaceous body style was the work of Peter Kirwan-Taylor, John Frayling, and aerodynamicist, Frank Costin. The resulting design had a low drag coefficient of only 0.29. Underneath was an advanced suspension derived from Lotus 12 Formula 2 racing car and used “Chapman struts” at the rear. You can see their tops poking up through the rear window. The resulting build, and combined lighter weight, gave the Elite a nimble, exhilarating performance out of its 75hp 1.2-liter Coventry Climax “Feather Weight Elite” (FEW) inline four-cylinder engine. 1960 Motor magazine road test noted its maximum speed at 111.8 mph with 0–60 mph in 11.4 seconds. “Speed, controllability in all conditions and comfort in all its aspects make this compact two-seat coupe an extremely desirable property,” concluded the road test, calling it a “mettlesome thoroughbred.”
At roughly $5500 with tax, the Series 1 Elite was pricey, but it was gorgeous and fast! Series 2 developments included an improved design of rear suspension, and a better body build by Bristol Aircraft. In 1960, one could option a higher performance, special equipment (SE) Lotus model, like the one seen here. This included a ZF all-synchromesh close-ratio gearbox, two SU carburetors, and a modified exhaust manifold. Altogether, the package developed 85 bhp.
The Lotus Elite offered outstanding performance, but it was expensive to build and nearly bankrupted Lotus. In September 1963, after a mere five years, Elite production came to a halt. Road & Track magazine even ran “An Appreciation and an Obituary” for the elegant little car.
Amazing how the big the wings of the brown Pelican can fold down into a very compact flying torpedo. The brown pelican can dive head first into water to catch a meal. And seagulls often try to steal their catch out. I hope to catch the seagull getting away with the theft on camera soon.
Shooting in RAW with the Lumix DMC-TZ80 compact camera is especially important in making black and white conversions. It is possible to select a monochrome jpeg option in camera, but I always want to have full control over my conversions. That way you can get a richer tonal range.

Macro Monday's and the theme of "Pins".
A straightforward photo this week. I decided to focus on the pins of a Compact Flash card reader, It was slightly easier than using my Nikon D200 as a subject where the pins are quite recessed inside the camera. The card reader also has a blue light that illuminates when it is plugged in.
Compact flash cards are the reason I mainly use a lead to connect the camera too my laptop. I had heard stories when I first got my Nikon D70 of the possibility of pins getting bent in the CF card port so to this day I am still in the habit of using a lead.

To everyone that has left a comment or has graced the photo by faving it, thank you, thank you, thank you...
There have been quite a few new benches installed at the John F Kennedy arboretum, all this same design; really dark stained wood & just about long enough for 2 people to sit side by side. Perhaps they will be solo benches in the event of another covid type social distancing event? Who knows what the thinking was behind making them so compact & bijou.
Anyway, the colourful forsythia bushes & variety of distant trees caught my eye, so I took a quick iPhone shot HTmT!
Photo 31/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or chairs. Catching up with uploading my 100x as I was (am) way behind. I promise to intersperse some non-bench photos too.
It's probably not my best, but I think it's good for not doing anything for ~1 week.

Merlin - Falco columbarius
The UK's smallest bird of prey, this compact, dashing falcon has a relatively long, square-cut tail and rather broad-based pointed wings, shorter than those of other falcons. Its wingbeat tends to be rapid with occasional glides, wings held close to the body.
In winter, the UK population increases as most of the Icelandic breeding birds migrate to our warmer climate. Although recovering from a population crash in the late 20th century, it is on the Red List. It is a Schedule 1 listed species on The Wildlife and Countryside Act
The merlin (Falco columbarius) is a small species of falcon from the Northern Hemisphere, with numerous subspecies throughout North America and Eurasia. A bird of prey once known colloquially as a pigeon hawk in North America, the merlin breeds in the northern Holarctic; some migrate to subtropical and northern tropical regions in winter. Males typically have wingspans of 53–58 centimetres (21–23 in), with females being slightly larger. They are swift fliers and skilled hunters who specialize in preying on small birds in the size range of sparrows to quail. The merlin has for centuries been well regarded as a falconry bird. In recent decades merlin populations in North America have been significantly increasing, with some merlins becoming so well adapted to city life that they forgo migration.
Merlins inhabit fairly open country, such as willow or birch scrub, shrubland, but also taiga forest, parks, grassland such as steppe and prairies, or moorland. They are not very habitat-specific and can be found from sea level to the treeline. In general, they prefer a mix of low and medium-height vegetation with some trees, and avoid dense forests as well as treeless arid regions. During migration however, they will utilize almost any habitat.
Most of its populations are migratory, wintering in warmer regions. Northern European birds move to southern Europe and North Africa, and North American populations to the southern United States to northern South America. In the milder maritime parts of its breeding range, such as Great Britain, the Pacific Northwest and western Iceland, as well as in Central Asia, it will merely desert higher ground and move to coasts and lowland during winter. The migration to the breeding grounds starts in late February, with most birds passing through the USA, Central Europe and southern Russia in March and April, and the last stragglers arriving in the breeding range towards the end of May. Migration to winter quarters at least in Eurasia peaks in August/September, while e.g. in Ohio, just south of the breeding range, F. c. columbarius is typically recorded as a southbound migrant as late as September/October. In Europe, merlins will roost communally in winter, often with hen harriers (Circus cyaneus). In North America, communal roosting is rare.
Merlins rely on speed and agility to hunt their prey. They often hunt by flying fast and low, typically less than 1 m (3.3 ft) above the ground, using trees and large shrubs to take prey by surprise. But they actually capture most prey in the air, and will "tail-chase" startled birds. Throughout its native range, the merlin is one of the most able aerial predators of small to mid-sized birds, more versatile if anything than the larger hobbies (which prefer to attack in mid-air) and the more nimble sparrowhawks (which usually go for birds resting or sleeping in dense growth). Breeding pairs will frequently hunt cooperatively, with one bird flushing the prey toward its mate.
By far the most serious long-term threat to these birds is habitat destruction, especially in their breeding areas. Ground-nesting populations in moorland have a preference for tall heather, and are thus susceptible to overmanagement by burning vast tracts instead of creating a habitat mosaic containing old and new growth. Still, the merlin is rather euryoecious and will even live in settled areas, provided they have the proper mix of low and high vegetation, as well as sufficient prey (which is usually the case) and nesting sites (which is a common limiting factor).

900-1,500 pairs
A few sample landscape photos from the last trip to Snowdonia North Wales using... a Panasonic Lumix LX100 compact camera.
I have been always used a Nikon DSLR camera, start from the Nikon D50 in 2005, D300, D700 and ending with the D800 a few years ago.
To be honest I was loving all of it ;)
In the last few years, I have been more focused on mountain photography, been walking a Snowdon, Glyders, Pen yr Ole Wen plenty of time with my full set up in all of the possible weather condition ;) and now I know how to have the pleasure walking the mountains.
