Bei unserer Helgoländer Inselrundfahrt konnten wir dieses Schiff fotografieren, es befand sich auf einer Testfahrt und hatte vor der Südspitze Helgolands Anker geworfen um das Aussetzen und Aufnehmen der Tender Boote zu testen.

Am 5.7.22 wird es erstmalig in Hamburg erwartet

One of my early photographs which helped to get me into photography.

Sandton - Johannesburg, South Africa

A rather turbulent looking and somewhat elongated cloud, skirts the surface of the ocean and touches the crest of Pender Island. Above and behind, the swift moving higher clouds also reveal a warm light. Just another pleasant day in Sechelt with some new discoveries including a lone duck.

NEW #PHOTO

K.Marinović - The Discovery

 

Hello #friends, here is my new shot called "The Discovery". It was taken at the same spot as my previous one, "Running To The Sun". It´s not very often that I upload a photo in color, but when I do, it´s usually a photo of a sunset because the colors are absolutely gorgeous at that time and it would be a shame to convert the photo in B&W. Taken with Tokina 12-24mm, edited in Lightroom and GIMP.

 

Have a lovely night!

 

This colourful ceramic mosaic by local artist Peter Alting was dedicated in 1994. If you enlarge this photograph you can see how well he has crafted the ceramic pieces providing "Layers of Discovery" for the local region.

A weekend stroll through the woods of the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. It was getting a bit late in the evening. The heat and humidity has been brutal around these parts forcing me to wait even longer to venture out. The great thing about photography is that you can walk the same path countless times, but by changing your focus you can see it a new light. Discovery.

HANDLEY PAGE VICTOR XL231_Yorkshire Air Museum_former RAF Elvington

  

The Handley Page Victor is a British jet-powered strategic bomber, developed and produced by the Handley Page Aircraft Company, which served during the Cold War. It was the third and final V-bomber to be operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF), the other two being the Avro Vulcan and the Vickers Valiant. The Victor had been developed as part of the United Kingdom's airborne nuclear deterrent. In 1968, it was retired from the nuclear mission following the discovery of fatigue cracks, which had been exacerbated by the RAF's adoption of a low-altitude flight profile to avoid interception.

 

A number of Victors were modified for strategic reconnaissance, using a combination of radar, cameras, and other sensors. As the nuclear deterrence mission was given to the Royal Navy's submarine-launched Polaris missiles in 1969, a large V-bomber fleet could not be justified. Consequently, many of the surviving Victors were converted into aerial refuelling tankers. During the Falklands War, Victor tankers were used in the airborne logistics operation to repeatedly refuel Vulcan bombers on their way to and from the Black Buck raids.

 

The Victor was the last of the V-bombers to be retired, the final aircraft being removed from service on 15 October 1993. In its refuelling role, it was replaced by the Vickers VC10 and the Lockheed Tristar.

When I went out in the late afternoon, foggy light, I didn't expect to discover a flower still thriving in spite of very cold weather.

Baby steps with the M8...

I’m trawling the archives trying to delete some of the 28k images in LR but keep getting held up editing old ones. This is from the last ice festival in Lake Louise since the pandemic…..hoping it comes back in 2024. It’s by Team Japan, Junichi Nakamura and Shinichi Sawamura.

#Week 27: Discovery

 

Seaside rock pools host a variety of smaller animals and plants just waiting to be discovered during coastal rambles. These Zebra Snails are making their own discoveries as they wander around a pool at Merewether, Newcastle.

Thanks for viewing and have a great day!

A.I.- Generated Article:

 

The RRS Discovery is a barque-rigged auxiliary steamship built in Dundee, Scotland for Antarctic research. Launched in 1901, she was the last traditional wooden three-masted ship to be built in the United Kingdom. Her first mission was the British National Antarctic Expedition, carrying Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton on their first, and highly successful, journey to the Antarctic, known as the Discovery Expedition.

 

After service as a merchant ship before and during the First World War, Discovery was taken into the service of the British government in 1923 to carry out scientific research in the Southern Ocean, becoming the first Royal Research Ship. The ship undertook a two-year expedition – the Discovery Investigations – recording valuable information on the oceans, marine life and being the first scientific investigation into whale populations.

 

On her return from the BANZARE (British Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition), Discovery was moored in London as a static training ship and visitor attraction until 1979. That year she was placed in the care of the Maritime Trust as a museum ship. In 1986 she was moved to Dundee, the city where she was built. After an extensive restoration, Discovery is now the centrepiece of a visitor attraction in the city.

Taken in Campbell River on Vancouver Island.

In a founding document about the Riverdale Center, Thomas wrote: Our method of study is principally the cultural-historical method. We wish to establish an awareness of human spiritual development. Back of the human venture, however, there is the living process of the Earth itself. Thus we wish to associate our work with the study of the Earth, with the emergence of life, the appearance of humans, the cultural formation of traditional societies, with the recent scientific-technological revolution in human affairs, and with the ecological equilibrium, which is being sought in the future.
