I resti di un albero decomposto ed isolato sembrano un totem verso il cielo. In effetti, poi, avvicinandomi, ho potuto verificare come l'albero fosse stato abbattuto da un fulmine.
Il cielo dona, il cielo toglie :)

Taken in Tard nature reserve in north east Hungary.
A fairly large caterpillar on what looks like quite a tall clover, which made for an interesting challenge to compose, fortunately I was in a sheltered location with no wind but still ended up taking loads of pictures as the caterpillar was quite active munching away on the flower.
Incidentally noticed afterwards an aphid at the top of the image indulging in a bit of parthenogenesis, which if nothing else, gives a good sense of scale.
Best viewed very large.

Yesterday, I composed this image from a typical inlet on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia, Canada.
Located on the southern coast of British Columbia, Canada, the Sunshine Coast extends 180 kilometres between Howe Sound in the southeast and the entrance to Desolation Sound in the northwest. The rugged mountains bordering these inlets cut the Sunshine Coast off from direct road connection to the rest of the province, so even though it’s part of the British Columbian mainland, you can only get to the Sunshine Coast by ferry, private boat, or plane. The Sunshine Coast is deeply forested and sparsely populated.
Settlement of this area by Europeans and other non-Indigenous peoples began in the 1880s. Fishing and logging were the main occupations of the settlers, along with small-scale farming, mainly for their subsistence. The establishment of logging camps in the Powell River area in the 1880s was a precursor to more significant economic developments.
The naming of “The Sunshine Coast” originated with a pioneer family: the Roberts of Roberts Creek. In 1914, Harry Roberts painted “The Sunshine Belt” name on the side of the freight house on the first wharf built in Roberts Creek, and the name was used to promote Roberts Creek as a summer resort destination. When Black Ball Ferries started a car ferry service to the coast in 1951, they started using the term “Sunshine Coast” to promote the whole area, and the name quickly caught on.
I composed his image while traveling in late evening toward the Rocky Mountains in Alberta, Canada. Most of the traffic was headed in the opposite direction, returning to Calgary after a day of skiing.
There is evidence of human life near the Douro River and what is now Porto for over 120,000 years. In fact, the name Portugal is derived from the names "Porto" and "Gaia," its neighbouring town. The defining natural feature of Porto is the Douro River, or "The River of Gold," as it is seen when coloured by the setting sun. The defining industrial feature of Porto, of course, is the production of wine, and particularly that of Port. Over 80% of the wine produced in the Douro Valley is Port; there is no other place in the world that is as suitable for making the multiple varieties of this wine.
In Gaia, the town across the Douro River from which this photograph was composed, gthere is a Museum District, featuring seven museums related to Porto, its past and its present. I visited one of these museums, "A History of Porto Across The Ages," and found it to be a wonderfully educational experience.
Composed of thousands of inlaid chips in over 250 colors, Marc Chagall’s mosaic artwork "The Four Seasons" portrays six scenes of Chicago. It features a vocabulary of images informed by the artist’s Russian-Jewish heritage and found in his Surrealist paintings such as birds, fish, flowers, suns and pairs of lovers. Chagall maintained that: “the seasons represent human life, both physical and spiritual, at its different ages.” The design for this mosaic was created in Chagall’s studio in France, transferred onto full-scale panels and installed in Chicago with the help of a skilled mosaicist.
Chagall continued to modify his design after its arrival in Chicago, bringing up-to-date the areas containing the city’s skyline (last seen by the artist 30 years before installation) and adding pieces of native Chicago brick.
Another image composed while I visited my parents last week. The tree is in their front yard.
This image almost appears to be 3-D, with the optical illusion that the moon is closer to the eye than the passing cloud next to it.
Of course, we know the moon is 238,900 miles away from the earth (384,472 km), and the very highest clouds are only 9 miles up... So this cloud is MUCH closer here than the moon, despite the illusion to the contrary :)
World famous emerald colored Moraine Lake and the Valley of the Ten Peaks in Banff National Park in the Canadian Rocky Mountains is part of the UNESCO designated World Heritage Site. HDR composite photo taken by bracketing -/+ 2 stops, resting the camera on top of a rock. f/22 aperture was selected to cause the sun to create the sunburst effect and deliberately image the lens flares. Bracketed shots were merged with Photomatix and Apple Aperture workflow software. Photographer's comment: It's difficult to compose an image without dozens of photo and selfie snapping foreign tourists wandering around the scene. LOL
I composed this image of White Water Lilies while visiting Naples Botanical Garden, in Florida.
Nymphaeaceae is a family of flowering plants, commonly called water lilies. They live as aquatic herbs in temperate and tropical climates around the world. The family contains five genera with about 70 known species.
Water lilies are rooted in soil in bodies of water, with leaves and flowers floating on or emergent from the surface.
The White Water Lily is the national flower of Bangladesh and state flower for Andhra Pradesh, India. The seal of Bangladesh contains a lily floating on water.
A Native American legend says that the water lily was once a star. It fell from the sky and, striking the water, it changed into a flower
I composed this frame to resemble the moon surface.
Throughout history, there have been many ways of making moonshine; making good moonshine is quite an art and requires precision and skill.
It takes lots of time and practice before one can whip up a good batch that works.
Here are the basic ingredients:
water,
sugar,
corn meal,
yeast
and malt.
Here is the basic process:
In a large container mix all ingredients together.
After mixing, move the mixture into a still and leave it to ferment.
Heat the mixture to the point of vaporization at 173° degrees fahrenheit.
The mixture will produce a clear liquid, often the color of dark beer.
Trap vapor using a tube or coil.
The vapor will be transferred into a second, empty container. The resulting condensation is the moonshine; it is then ready to drink.
Keep mixture in container and add more sugar, water, malt, and corn meal then repeat the process.
(Repeat the process up to eight times before replacing the mixture).
"Focus on simplicity. On nuance. Slow down. Breathe. Smile. You don’t need to prove anything to anybody. Including yourself. Think about that for a minute and let it sink in:
You don’t have to prove anything to anybody, including yourself."

I composed this image while visiting Caen, in France’s Normandy region. It is of a small portion of the immense Church of Saint-Jean de Caen, built in the fifteenth century on the remains of a Romanesque church of the twelfth century and classified as an historic monument in the list of French historic monuments protected in 1840.
The church has the distinction of having been built on unstable marshy soil, so that the bell tower is now leaning and has never been completed, and other parts of the structure can also seen to be leaning.
It is also remarkable for its evident creeping decrepitude, a masterpiece still functioning as a Catholic Church, while being allowed to decay. Nonetheless, with its overwhelming Gothic style, it is one of the architectural jewels of Caen.
In WW 2, the church was slightly damaged by allied bombs, but subsequently repaired. For those interested, the following is a summary of Caen's fate in the days after D-Day.
Just nine miles south of the D-Day beaches, the Allies expected to liberate Caen quickly. The city was vital for transport through the region and if left in German hands would give German reinforcements good access to the coast. But they underestimated resistance by German Panzer divisions who held the Allies away from Caen for some weeks. Eventually a major assault was planned on the city for 8 July. Bombers would prepare the way. They started in earnest on July 7th.
Survivors always said July 7th was the worst day for Caen. On that day records show Lancaster and Halifax bombers dropped 2500 tons of bombs on the city. Many people took refuge in the Caen Abbey because it was a very strong building but also because of legend they clung to: William the Conqueror was buried there and they believed the Allies wouldn’t dare bomb the grave of an English king. The rumour was that if William’s grave was ever destroyed, it would be the end of the English crown.
The Abbey was next to the local hospital, and workers there dipped sheets in blood to create a red cross that was laid across the roof in the hope this would keep the bombers away.
Somehow the Abbey and the hospital survived, thanks to that huge red cross. Both buildings were still hit by nearly 200 shells, but around them city was hit with 600,000 shells in the weeks after D-Day.
Although parts of Caen were liberated on 9 July, still the enemy resisted and the Allies could not get across the Orne river that bisects the city. A further 7,000 tons of bombs and 250,000 shells were aimed at Caen. Finally the German army completely pushed back on 21 July.
The city had been reduced to rubble, impassable by Allied troops. But there was also the euphoria of liberation. A man named André Heintz said: “I went to the northern part of the city, to the area that is now part of the university campus. The whole area looked like I imagined the moon to be, because the many bombs that had been dropped had brought lots of white stone to the surface. When I saw the first Allied soldier I put my hands up, because I had no way of identifying myself. I was taken to the Intelligence Officer, who was very pleased to see me because I could pinpoint our location on a map. The soldiers gave me sugar, chocolate, jam and Spam. I took them to meet the Deputy Mayor at the Abbey, and remained their interpreter for the next five months.” “That day was the most beautiful of my entire life. I could hardly believe that I survived the German occupation and the battle, and I rushed to church as soon as I could to thank God for the privilege of being alive and being free again.”
The French call Caen ‘a city martyred for peace’.

A bit of Sunday trivia
Daisy Bell" was composed by British composer Harry Dacre in 1892. When Dacre first came to the United States, he brought with him a bicycle, for which he was charged import duty. His friend William Jerome, another songwriter, remarked lightly: "It's lucky you didn't bring a bicycle built for two, otherwise you'd have to pay double duty." Dacre was so taken with the phrase "bicycle built for two" that he soon used it in a song. That song, Daisy Bell, first became successful in a London music hall.
In 1961, an IBM 7094 at Bell Labs was programmed to sing "Daisy Bell" in the earliest demonstration of computer speech synthesis. This recording has been included in the United States National Recording Registry.
Science-fiction author Arthur C. Clarke witnessed the IBM 7094 demonstration during a trip to Bell Labs in 1962 and referred to it in the 1968 novel and film 2001: A Space Odyssey, in which the HAL 9000 computer sings "Daisy Bell" during its gradual deactivation.

The world-famous Reynisfjara shore, near the village Vik in Myrdalur on Iceland's South Coast, is widely regarded as the most impressive black-sand beach in Iceland… Reynisfjara is a black pebble beach and features an amazing cliff of regular basalt columns resembling a rocky step pyramid, which is called Hálsanef. Out in the sea are the spectacularly shaped basalt sea stacks Reynisdrangar. The area has a rich birdlife, including puffins, fulmars and guillemots. The waves at Reynisfjara are especially strong and unpredictable, and fatal accidents have occurred at this beach, so people are advised to take extra care when visiting the area. According to folklore, two trolls attempted to drag a ship to land but were turned to stone as daylight broke, turning them into the Reynisdrangar stacks, clearly visible from the beach.
