More Northern Pintails, American Wigeons and Green-winged Teal than can be counted! Unfortunately, one can't get closer to Warren Lake and environs, which are owned by the Katy Prairie Conservancy, but leased for cattle grazing. Good for the ducks! The Conservancy does provide a distant observation tower, however. Katy, Texas.

Central staircase in the Dominion Building in Vancouver's Gastown.
This second empire style building completed in 1910 was once the tallest building in the British Empire. The stairs between the 7th and 8th floors are also rumored to be haunted with the ghost of the buildings architect John S. Helyer.
This was my last shot before leaving that place. It was a great beach to go in summer, 2 minutes from home. Sand is not the greatest but who cares...
"The Dominion Building (originally Dominion Trust Building) is a commercial building in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Located on the edge of Gastown (207 West Hastings St), it was Vancouver's first steel-framed high-rise. At 53 m (175 ft), the thirteen-storey, Second Empire style building was the tallest commercial building in the British Empire upon its completion in 1910. Its architect was John S. Helyer, who is said to have died after falling off the staircase in the front of the building, though this is an urban legend."
A perfect moment in time, completely frozen. Tiny droplets of water from previous leaps hang in the air like a swarm of insects. Intense eyes utterly focused on the objective while the animal is suspended in mid-air without a hair moving. Dreamy waterfalls and waves are wonderful with their combined motions all smoothed together, but the opposite is also true: the total freezing of all apparent motion into the illusion of stasis also has its appeal.
Sunset was wonderful ! First time since ever I have to chance to catch such scene. While I was there a women invite me over the wall on left, to have a better point of view. I will go another time. She commented the during last spring the St-John river was few feet above this wall, 15 foot above where I was standing.
I suppose the fog would make "observing" a challenge.
The Dominion Observatory was an astronomical observatory in Ottawa, Ontario that operated from 1902 to 1970. The Observatory was also an institution within the Canadian Federal Government. The observatory grew out of the Department of the Interior's need for the precise coordinates and timekeeping that at that time could only come from an observatory. For several years they had used a small observatory on the Ottawa River for this purpose. In 1902, it was decided that Canada needed a larger national observatory similar to the Royal Greenwich Observatory in Britain.

seen in the lobby of the Dominion Building and still in use, I wonder how many of these beauties are still around?

Taken on the shore of Alterosen bay where our hotel as well as the Lofoten Museum and Lofoten Aquarium are located. It was after dinner, perhaps 9 PM, and, of course, in the north of Norway in August, there was still a good deal of light.
The title is taken from a series of paintings by René Magritte that all featured a house in twilight with a single street lamp illuminating the scene.
