Old-growth forest along Seeger Road, Huntingdon County, within the Alan Seeger Natural Area of Rothrock State Forest.
The natural area protects a tract of old-growth forest (hemlocks, white pines, and mixed hardwoods) in a broad stream valley. The Detweiler Run Natural Area, another old-growth site, is nearby.
Although the original forest of the area was largely logged off by the 1840s, many trees were spared—possibly because of property-boundary disputes or surveying errors. The researchers Nowacki and Abrams cored hemlocks at the site that are now more than 500 years old, as well as hardwoods that are nearly as old. Their research is published in the Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club (1994).

Here is a super close-up look of the changing of the guards against the red facade at the main shrine. The honor guards seen here are from the Air Force, as depicted by the badge on their jacket (空軍儀隊).
The heavy 100-400 saw its first (and only) use for the entire trip. I have to think hard every time I pack when I travel, mostly because of the dead weight, but then every now and then I am so glad that I did bring it along. So these days it’s a keeper unless I envision that I will be trekking long distances.

"From the beginning, it was the snowlfakes that fascinated me most"
Dubbed as “Snowflake”, Wilson Alwyn Bentley (1865-1931) was a pioneer in snowflake photomicrography. As a child he was fascinated by the natural world, and by the age of 19 he became the first to successfully capture a snowflake photograph with the help of a feather, a microscope and a camera. Bentley photographed thousands of individual snow crystals during his career, some of which we are showcasing in this Public Domain collection. We have digitally enhanced these amazingly detailed photographs of these winter’s wonders for you do download and use under the CC0 license.

The rooftop of this Buddhist temple features intricate details of dragons painted in vibrant colors. These figures are traditionally used to decorate Chinese imperial roof tops, and it shows influence here towards temple designs. In historic China, the color yellow and the dragon figure is reserved for the emperors only. Here in Taiwan, such restriction obviously does not apply.

The back of Vor Frue Kirke, cathedral of Copenhagen.
I have passed by a couple of times later with a larger sensor DSLR and a tripod, hoping to get a similar shot with less noise. But this is still the only time I have seen light in the nice round windows at night.

Der Konstantinsbogen wurde bereits 312 begonnen und am 25. Juli 315 geweiht. An diesem Tag feierte Konstantin den Beginn seines zehnten Regierungsjahres (decennalia). Auftraggeber für das Werk war der Senat. Der Bogen wurde an prominenter Stelle errichtet: Er überspannt in unmittelbarer Nähe des Kolosseums die Via Triumphalis, die sich nur wenige Meter nach dem Bogen mit der Via Sacra verbindet. Diesen Weg schlugen traditionell alle Triumphatoren ein, wenn sie vom Circus Maximus kommend den Palatin umrundeten, um dann über die Via Sacra und das Forum zum Kapitol zu gelangen. Ursprünglich soll der Bau von einer Quadriga gekrönt gewesen sein, die jedoch bei der Plünderung Roms durch die Westgoten unter Alarich im Jahr 410 oder die Plünderung Roms durch die Vandalen unter Geiserich 455 abhandengekommen sein soll.
Im Mittelalter integrierte man den Triumphbogen, ebenso wie das Kolosseum, in die Stadtbefestigungsanlagen. Zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde er in den derzeitigen baulichen Zustand versetzt. Im modernen Rom litt der Bogen, wie viele andere antike Monumente auch, sehr stark unter den Belastungen durch den motorisierten Straßenverkehr.
Die Inschrift:
IMP CAES FL CONSTANTINO MAXIMO
P F AUGUSTO S P Q R
QUOD INSTINCTU DIVINITATIS MENTIS
MAGNITUDINE CUM EXERCITU SUO
TAM DE TYRANNO QUAM DE OMNI EIUS
FACTIONE UNO TEMPORE IUSTIS
REM PUBLICAM ULTUS EST ARMIS
ARCUM TRIUMPHIS INSIGNEM DICAVIT[2]
Durch die fehlenden Buchstaben ergänzt lautet die Inschrift:
IMPERATORI CAESARI FLAVIO CONSTANTINO MAXIMO
PIO FELICI AUGUSTO SENATUS POPULUSQUE ROMANUS
QUOD INSTINCTU DIVINITATIS MENTIS
MAGNITUDINE CUM EXERCITU SUO
TAM DE TYRANNO QUAM DE OMNI EIUS
FACTIONE UNO TEMPORE IUSTIS
REM PUBLICAM ULTUS EST ARMIS
ARCUM TRIUMPHIS INSIGNEM DICAVIT
Die (sinngemäße) Übersetzung lautet:
Dem Kaiser Flavius Constantinus Maximus,
dem frommen und glücklichen Augustus, haben Senat und Volk von Rom,
weil er durch göttliche Eingebung und Größe
des Geistes mit seinem Heer
sowohl am Tyrannen als auch all seinen
Anhängern zur selben Zeit
den Staat mit gerechten Waffen rächte,
diesen Triumphbogen gewidmet.
Der Triumphbogen vermeidet durch die Formulierung "durch göttliche Eingebung" eine eindeutige Zuschreibung des Sieges an den Gott der Christen, wie er sich bei Laktanz und Eusebius in der Aussage "In hoc signo vinces" ("in diesem Zeichen wirst du siegen") findet, und enthält keinerlei christliche Symbolik.

This pair of NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope images of Mars taken on 28 December (top) and 29 December (bottom) 2024. Each image shows a different side of the planet, with the accompanying moon Phobos. Various features are identified in the images, including the polar ice caps and clouds, as well as multiple terrestrial features.
At the midpoint of the observations, Mars was approximately 98 million kilometres from Earth. Thin water-ice clouds that are apparent in ultraviolet light give the Red Planet a frosty appearance. The icy northern polar cap was experiencing the start of Martian spring.
In the top image, the bright orange Tharsis plateau is visible with its chain of dormant volcanoes. The largest volcano, Olympus Mons, pokes above the clouds at the 10 o’clock position near the northwest limb. At an elevation of over 21 000 meters, it is 2.5 times the height of Mt. Everest above sea level. Valles Marineris, Mars’ over 4,000-kilometre-long canyon system, is a dark, linear, horizontal feature near center left.
In the bottom image, high-altitude evening clouds can be seen along the planet’s eastern limb. The 2,250-kilometre-wide Hellas basin, an ancient asteroid impact feature, appears far to the south. Most of the hemisphere is dominated by the classical “shark fin” feature, Syrtis Major.

all 3 have lovely personalities!
from top left clockwise,
Sally - is thought to be a Corgi x Jack Russell. she took us for a great walk down to the harbour and got us back to the house again. She likes being centre of attention and hates the other two getting noticed.
Rosie, the owners believe she is a lab x long hair pointer cross, 18 months old. Oozes intelligence and gets a kick out of predicting and influencing human behaviour. She was rescued by Kevin (one of the owners), after a chance conversation outside a shop, from the boot of a car. She was being taken to get euthanised as a pup as she was surplus to requirements and was part of a big litter. Paula's fave of the 3!
Walter, Jack Russell, about 14 years old, A gentle soul who we were told started off life as a bait dog for dogs being trained for dog fighting and actually has some pretty significant skin scars to show for it. Thankfully he has enjoyed a long rescue retirement and is very laid back. Old, slow but definitely enjoying life and very gentle. He took a real like to me and i have to say he was my favourite of the 3 great dogs.
