View from Zugspitze summit.
The Zugspitze, at 2,962 m (9,718 ft) above sea level, is the highest peak of the Wetterstein Mountains as well as the highest mountain in Germany. It lies south of the town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and the border between Germany and Austria runs over its western summit. South of the mountain is the Zugspitzplatt, a high karst plateau with numerous caves. On the flanks of the Zugspitze are three glaciers, including the two largest in Germany: the Northern Schneeferner with an area of 30.7 hectares and the Höllentalferner with an area of 24.7 hectares. The third is the Southern Schneeferner which covers 8.4 hectares.
Italy, Venice, the farmers market between the Puente Rialto & the fish market.
The market offers an opulent assortment of fresh seasonal vegetables, salads, fruits & specialties from the Veneto region, Lombardy, Piedmont & all the way down to the south & Sicily.
On the centre bottom a basket full of sundried plum-tomatoes.
The lagoon city hides many picturesque places offside the tourist roads. If the buildings would be straight, painted & well maintained, I think Venice without this patina, the gondolas & gondolieri, channels, little bridges & the at all-time busy Canal Grande; all these main ingredients altogether express the romantic charm of Venice.

It's lit up for only 2 hours at the cherry tree time of the seasonal peak which blooms.
It's done and moreover it's along the most popular river in Tokyo by cherry tree sightseeing.
Meguro river which forms cherry trees forever, and blooms.
cherry is also excellent of course, but the visitor is wonderful, too! Visitor from a foreign country as well as Japanese
Much photography won difficulty.
But happily when I look up at the sky in the most beautiful time, a flower is an countless white galaxy at all.
The illusion that it's being looked in is even done.
And the brilliance by which I stand as bridge, who sees the whole picture in cherry trees somehow and color night in Japanese spring
Beating of the flowers which overflow was filmed.
China, Beijing,…autumn sunset over the Forbidden City, the “Zǐjinchéng”, in China now it is usually called Gùgōng, is the centre of Beijing. The Palace was for 276 years, 1368 –1644 the Chinese imperial palace from the Ming Dynasty & until the end of the Qing Dynasty, established in 1636 & ruling China from 1644 to 1912.
Built from 1406 to 1420, was it the home to twenty-four Chinese emperors, from the Ming dynasty & 1420 until the end of the Qing dynasty before the abdication of Puyi in 1912. The Palace served as the home of emperors, their family circle, as well as the ceremonial & political centre of Chinese government for over 500 years.
The 980 buildings complex with officially 9.999 rooms, as a room is considered the space between four pillars. The palace represents traditional Chinese impressive architecture, it influenced cultural & architectural developments in East Asia.
The whole complex was built without a nail or a screw only with dowels & interlacing, the general renovation which started in 2002 is done with same technics & craftsmanship as in past hundreds of years & will need a couple of more years, by the year 2020, 85% by 2020 to be finalized & open to the public. During the imperial centuries it was forbidden to build any house higher than the Palace buildings, hence during thunderstorms it was the main object in Beijing to be hit by lightning
After the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, some damage was done to the Forbidden City as the country was flounced up in revolutionary fanaticism during the Cultural Revolution. However, further destruction was prevented when Ordered by Mao Zedong, the Premier Zhou Enlai, sent an army battalion to guard the Forbidden City to prevent further devastation.
Zhou Enlai was the first Premier of the People's Republic of China, Mao Zedong was the Chairman, founding father & intellectual leader of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
The Imperial Palace, built in only 14 years from 1406 to 1420, is a rectangle covering 720,000m2 with 961 mtr from north to south & 753 mtr from east to west. Crossing the Forbidden City through to the Tiananmen Gate, which is decorated with a portrait of Mao Zedong, the forecourt & the Meridian Gate to the north gate on Jingshan Hill it is a length of slightly more than 1,5 km. The Forbidden City is enclosed by a 7,9 mtr high & 6 mtr wide defensive wall, which has a circumference of 3,430km, surrounded by a 52 mtr wide ditch.
The Forbidden City is documented as one of the most important five palaces in the world, with an area of 72ha it is the largest & ancient palatial structure in the world
The palace is 960 mtr long & 750 mtr wide, has formally 9,999 rooms, a room being the space between four pillars. The Forbidden City is enclosed by an almost 8 mtr-high defensive wall, which has a circumference of 3,430km.
Since 1925, the Forbidden City has been under the charge of the Palace Museum, whose extensive collection of artwork & artefacts were built upon the imperial collections of the Ming & Qing dynasties.
Approximately 15 million tourists visit the palace every year.
About 25% of the museum's former collection is since the Chinese Civil War located in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, both museums descend from the same institution.

I must have walked by this composition countless times in my visits to Lower Antelop Canyon. Each time, I planned to return to this spot after shooting other scenes but every time, I returned to this scene only to find it speckled with harsh direct sunlight spots. However this visit, I made it a priority to hit this spot up first and bolted here soon after entering the canyon. At that moment, some soft glow appeared towards the end of the passage whilst the protruding juts in the walls were bathed in cool tones.
David, Aaron, and I headed out early in hopes of being one of the first into the canyon. The first 30 minutes were excellent as we had most of the canyon to ourselves. Soon thereafter, a tour group passed us. Then a second tour group and before we knew it, we were more or less “stuck” in one area for long periods of time.
Overall, it was fun but frustrating shooting Lower Antelope again. The glow was great but the constant deluge of visitors made shooting difficult and rather unpleasant. It started out with a few tour groups followed by a short time of solitude but shortly after, the tourists flooded in continuously as a canyon traffic jam built up. Despite these roadblocks, it was stunning to see these amazingly sculpted walls as well as a method to dodge the scorching desert sun.

Germany, Hamburg, …on a chilly night, 0°C, in January “Flammenspuk” performing with a fire show in drizzling rain, the final event to fade out of the Hamburg “Maskenzauber” weekend.
,…no, …it’s not Venice, it is a homage to the “Venetian Carnival” in Hamburg, the “Maskenzauber”, magic masques.
Charming masks, impressive costumes & the flair of the Hanseatic city between Alster-Arcades & Colonnades.
When masked ladies & cavaliers stroll through the streets in Hamburg, then the annual Maskenzauber on the Alster takes place.
Mask magic became a solid & unique event over the years developed in the Hamburg’s street culture life.
Spectators can admire imaginative costumes, dances & in the evening fire dance at this elegant Venetian style street carnival on the carnival weekend.
Unfortunately, the weather this year, 2018, was chilly, humid & unpleasant,…however, it could not spoil the festive spirit of the performers & audiences.

One of the countless dramatic vistas to be found off the beaten path in Arches National Park. It was about 105º F when I took this shot and still the skies were bright blue.
Thanks very much for the continued kind comments and favorites. They are much appreciated.
* I have been to London countless times but until 2016 I had not visited Southwark Cathedral. It’s situated on the South Bank of the Thames near London Bridge not as well known as St Pauls or Westminster Abbey perhaps but it is rather splendid. It's very near the site of the original Globe theatre it is highly likely to have been where Shakespeare attended religious services.
This photograph shows the Humble Monument l it consists of three, beautifully carved, family members, kneeling, it particularly caught my eye when I visited the Cathedral. It is a monument to Richard Humble (died 1616) and his two wives, Margaret and Isabel and was made by Flemish refugee sculptors living and working on Bankside. The coffered arch is typical of their work which is sometimes referred to as “The Southwark School”. It was given a marbleised finish during an 1876 restoration unfortunately as it gives a very different feel to the original work. The Monument is on the left side of the High Alter this is seen in the background of this image
Southwark Cathedral records show that Humble, a city alderman, was a member of the church vestry – the laity helping with the day to day running of the church and its charities. It also notes that despite his involvement with the Church, he was once fined for allowing his sheep to graze in the churchyard without permission!
A shot of the Alter screen in Southwark at the head of the comments
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED
After countless times of staying in the park after close to get an empty shot up Main St. to the castle, we FINALLY did it this past Saturday!!
Thanks for looking!

Here's one of the countless beautiful farmhouses in Shirakawago. I stayed in two different ones while I was there. They weren't the best-insulated, but each one had a central fire where you cozy up. One thing I couldn't figure out, though, is why there are no chimneys. And no one at these ryokans spoke English, so I couldn't ask anyone. I still can't figure out where all the smoke went. Each fire had a huge iron square suspended over it, and the smoke would curl around it and then disappear into the darkness. If anyone has a clue on this, let me know!
there are countless triggerfishes at this dive site. Maldives is home of triggerfish.
Have a great weekend. : ))
I have walked by this tree countless time and never really gotten too into it. It's pretty, but there's a fence behind it and I've just never had a composition that worked for me. I was kneeling on the ground next to Patrick, wondering what he was shooting, when he showed me one of his shots from the tree and I just couldn't believe it was the same tree. I said, "I never have luck with that tree! Watch!" And I put my camera down near the sidewalk, with the new 28mm 2.8 attached, pointed it at the tree, and pressed the shutter button.
This is what I took, without trying. : )
This has been fun teasing Trixie with the laser pointer.
Cop show blaring in the back ground, Brian must not have thought it was loud enough.
On the outskirts of Illaryian, for countless thousands of centuries, there has stood a towering statue of a giant stone tiger. Perched atop the tall and elegant Royal Arabesque Mansion, this tiger’s claws scratch the very sky. More than one traveler has come to cringe beneath the looming giant in the dark and gloomy night, at least half convinced that it was some gigantic immortal tiger hound, coming to steal their souls. But not the pair of travelers that stood upon the Tiger of Illaryian this night...

About the build, it was so tricky to poise the tiger like this (there are no props apart from the photo to hold it up), and the fine details of the building were super tough to do without gaps. Hope you like it!
Bonus points to anyone who can guess which real city inspired the architecture of the building...
Merry Christmas! I usually save something special for Christmas Day, and here it is – one of the biggest snowflakes I have ever encountered. Asymmetrical but stunning, with countless layers of detail and adornments. While the average snowflake takes about four hours to edit, this one set me back 14 hours across three days.
There’s too much to describe in this jewel, but one prominent feature stands out: faceted rime. All over this crystal, with a few prominent locations on each branch, you can spot hexagonal gems growing in clusters, like a top-down view of some futuristic crystalline city. This is the result of extremely prolonged growth after a collision with super-cooled water droplets (droplets of liquid water that are technically colder than the freezing point. They’ll turn to ice with any disturbance, such as hitting a snowflake mid-air).
Snowflakes don’t normally get this big, with such broad branches and layers. This snowflake fell in a rare cloudless event that I have only seen twice in a decade. By some meteorological phenomenon, a wave of snowflakes calmly descended on me in the late evening with stars in the sky. These were big snowflakes, with similar features to this one; thick, broad branches and gargantuan size. These jewels were only landing for a few moments, and very sparsely. Then, they were gone. Was it some sort of travelling ice fog? A simple low-lying cloud? I am uncertain, but the conditions were incredibly gentle, resulting in a snowflake design usually only found in lab-grown specimens.
If you look closely, you’ll see what appears to be the possibility of a second snowflake in the background, almost the same footprint. There are so many branches growing completely behind the main crystal that this is possible. You can also spot two completely separate snowflakes, one beneath the center and one to the lower right. The same weather system made snowflakes of all sizes and shapes.
A Christmas miracle? Hardly – this snowflake was photographed on February 13, 2021. It has taken me a while to get around to this arduous edit, and I still have over 1000 unedited snowflakes from many years ago to get through. We don’t get much snow here near Varna, Bulgaria – but I’ll be out photographing whatever comes my way.
I wish everyone a wonderful Christmas. Some of you have the same luck as I do – to spend the day celebrating with family. Do not take this for granted, as many people in the world are suffering greatly this Christmas; imagine the cold and hopeless winters of the early 1940’s, but today. Hug your family, tell silly jokes, embrace everything that has no material value in your life. Be happy. Be healthy. Find the motivation to make 2023 the best year ever - not for you, but for those you care about.

Standing quietly in one of those countless unnamed, unknown places in Appalachia. Across the street–I couldn't quite get the shot right—was evidence of at least one house, now gone. There are brush-hidden steps up from the road, but the most obvious indicator was the pair of trees perfectly spaced on either side of the top of those steps.
Once again, a well-meaning passing motorist—two, actually!— stopped to make sure I was all right and not suffering from some sort of car trouble. Though I occasionally feel like an idiot telling them that, yes, I am taking pictures of old abandoned places while wearing a girly dress in the middle of nowhere, I genuinely appreciate the chivalry and concern, and have lost count of the times this has happened to me. I'm physically small, in iffy health, and often all alone, and it would be easy to take advantage of that—yet no one, thank God, ever has. Instead they've been concerned about me and offered my Chevy a jump if she needs it! Nothing but genuine kindness. If you need encouragement about the state of the nation, maybe let that be it.
To be honest, I should probably keep a batch of my killer flourless brownies in the car when out photographing, to share with those strangers who demonstrate such basic kindness to me!
Coyote Butte's infamous Wave has been photographed countless times...and, quite frankly, it's difficult to come up with a unique perspective at this point. And so I thought I'd include a relaxing hiker into the mix in order to provide some scale for those of you who have never visited this unique spot (she actually was sitting there - I didn't add her in Photoshop).
The wonderfully colored, swirling sandstone is a photographer's dream come true and provides numerous spots to sit and relax after the long and strenuous trek thru some truly amazing scenery. Located literally on the Arizona / Utah border in Vermillion Cliffs National Monument.

I have spent countless hours photographing the Hooded Mergansers. I have gotten them with crayfish and courtship displays but this is the first time I have seen them mate. The female presented herself for many minutes while the male swam around and strutted (on water no less). The mating took a surprisingly long time allowing for many camera clicks.
Special thanks to Rob Cullison who called to tell me the distribution of mergansers was good for photo opportunities. (three males and two females)
She realized then that there was nowhere on the earth she could get away. Those countless gripping hands, laid hold of every strand of her mind, of her being, then quickly pulled in unison. Everything she was came apart in that moment, twirling away into nothingness, leaving only darkness.
This, they could work with.
I just loved this gated fence and it's message.... I feel the same thing daily when I wake up and can get up and that I have a home, a car, and a precious family & blessed with many amazing fantastic friends!!! By the end of the day I fall asleep thanking God for all the countless blessings of my day!!! Our weather today is so beautiful in the 50's during the night and will only get into the low 80's today... another beautiful blessing!!! So to all my wonderful Flickr friends a very Happy Fence Friday - HFF and wishes for a blessed beautiful weekend!!! Hugs!!!

I've seen countless versions of this kind of shot and have always wanted to try one - regardless of how much of a cliche it might be.
The title should be humorous to anyone who knows a bit of French. For those of you who are Franco-impaired, eau is French for water....and it's pronounced "oh". Besides, calling this pic "Hair Spray" was just too obvious, making it even more of a cliche. At least I have what I think is an original title, even if the pic idea isn't so original.
Whoever did this style of shot first certainly deserves kudos for inspiring a lot of wannabe photographers.
Thanks to my young cousin Claire who was a very cooperative first-time model.

In the background on the horizon stands the Leh Palace, Ladakh.
There are countless number of photos of the Palace at Leh in Ladakh. Infact when I wanted to visit this monument one cloudless sunny November day, it was an exercise in futility as it was the weekly off so no entry was allowed. That was the last sight of the gates of the Palace or so I thought. I will not be ever seeing the palace again.
The facade of the Palace however is a prominent feature all along the bazaar side of the Leh town and you cannot afford to miss it in the skyline. So it did make periodic appearance in photographs that I took in the derelict and decaying inner sanctums of the township such as this place.
There is a life that goes on in the shadows and dark areas of Leh , while the sun shines fiercely and the monuments glisten on the mountainside while the sky takes on inky blue tones ( with an underexposure in camera)
This was built around the 17th century and is a a stone structure in 7 layers modeled on the Potala of Lhasa, Tibet.
This was the seat of the royal family of Ladakh. Today it stands mute testimony to its solidity while the square houses around the area were inundated by flash floods in 2009-2010.

China, Harbin, City Impressions, …street tennis, one player, left side, challenging the two players on the right.
Heilongjiang Province, the most northeast part of China, when viewed on a map has the shape of a swan. Its capital city is Harbin, which is located south of Heilongjiang.
Not only for its special position, but also as the centre of Heilongjiang's political, economic, educational & cultural life, Harbin is described as the pearl beneath the swan's neck. Lying on the east of the Songnen Plain, what is more, Harbin plays a vital role in communications between South & North Asia as well the regions of Europe & the Pacific Ocean.
Harbin was the birthplace of Jin, 1115-1234 & Qing, 1644-1911, Dynasties, the latter of which had a very considerable influence on modern Chinese history.
At the end of the 19th century, Russia built the terminus of the Middle East Railway here. Later, more than 160,000 foreigners from 33 countries migrated to Harbin, promoting the development of a capitalist economy in the city. The economy & culture of Harbin achieved unprecedented prosperity at that time & the city gradually grew into a famous international commercial port. Assimilating external culture, Harbin created its unique & exotic cityscape. The majestic St. Sofia Orthodox Church & Zhongyang Dajie each built in a European style have the effect of bringing you into an 'eastern Moscow'. Even though you are sure to be attracted by various exotic buildings, the Dragon Tower which embodies the wisdom of the Chinese people is a must on your journey.
Besides these rich cultural heritages, Harbin is favoured with beautiful natural scenery. Based on meandering Song Hua River & subject to severe low temperatures in winter, down to -30°C, when I took this Pictures the Temperature varied between -20°C & -26°C but dry air, Harbin boasts a unique ice & snow culture. So, Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
The impressive "Ice & Snow Festival" is the greatest & unusual one in the world, therefor Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
As well the large Siberian Tiger & white tigers research centre, with about 500 tigers & a few other species, does an important work to prevent this species from extinction. The Research centre can be visited, tours in small a bus are available, passing through wide natural, separated, sections, however the focus point is to save the tigers.

We see countless sunrises, yet we are always startled by its beauty.At first there appears to be a tiny ball at the horizon. It slowly comes out of the shadow of clouds, increasing in size. You just look at it. The waves of seas kiss the land and rocks gently and you want to be kissed too.The vast expanse of sea in front of you filled with unknown depths and the land beneath you assuring you are safe, the cool breeze of air filled with pleasant notes and the sky with all the warmth of a mother
I'm surprised when I peek at the water droplets in the morning with a macro lens.
There is a great world to show.
It's like a galaxy of countless stars in outer space

Nature is infinite and absolutely mysterious!
In countless big cities across the Galactic Federation, especially in hive-cities with complex system of highways and smaller roads, the problem of traffic congestion and a high number of accidents is especially acute. So in some those cities personal cars was replaced by an automatic taxi system. It is made up of millions of public cabs that do not require a driver to operate and can operate on dedicated traffic lines as well as on numerous small branches off major highways.
These electric vehicles do not have a rear or front and move in both directions equally quickly, which greatly simplifies city traffic and does not waste time on turning. Also, the salon is pressurized and even has life support systems, thanks to which these cabs can be used in cities with the most unfavorable ecology or on the surface of planets where there is no breathable atmosphere. Due to the fact that all cabs are controlled by automatics and connected to a single network, the accident rate of this type of transport is minimized.
P.S. Only after hour long rendering I noticed that cars "levitating" above the ground. And I'm too lazy to re-render it. :P
All of the countless times we've been down this road looking at the country surrounding Fisher Towers, it's never looked like this.
We bolted out of Colorado that day because it was scheduled to rain for four straight days and after considering the prospect of of sitting in the tent waiting for the weather to clear, we figured we could do better.
Solution: Utah.
After seeing this: We weren't so sure.

We, and countless thousands of Calgarians, headed to the mountains for the first day of our long weekend, our Victoria Day Weekend. The parking areas at trailheads were overrun, and so many just parked on the roadside. There were more people on our route than usual, but it was challenging enough that it didn't attract throngs. We thought there would be snow about, and luckily the snow at the top was strong and stable.

After countless museum visits, I eventually realized museum is not my thing... But yet, I found myself standing here at the Vatican Museum.
The only reason I was there was I wanted to photograph this stunning Bramante-inspired staircase designed by Giuseppe Momo in 1932.
I was not interested in walking around the museum much after that. Yes I am serious!
Similar to my February Chicago visit... the Arctic storm did not stop me just because I was way too curious about if the city was really that mysterious in the winter like how it got presented by this Instagram photographer... and if not... would I be able to create a similar vibe in my photos... And the only way for me to find it out was going there!
Crazy things we do for our photos, right?! ;)
