Today Northwest Germany was hit by heavy thunderstorms. My home town got just the perfect quantity of rain. Without obligations to water the garden I pinched (again) the scooter of my son to invade near by Lower Saxony. In the middle of nowhere I spotted this scene. Melle, Lower Saxony, Germany.
This shot is a symbol for a perfect balance. Hope that my dear friend with the orange hair will get sober one day to achieve something similar. May the cool waters of Canada have a healing effect.....
Thank you very much for your visits, favs and nice comments. I appreciate them very much. All the best to you 💕

"La vida esta en la diversidad, no en la monotonÃa"
The project was launched by the late president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who wanted to establish a structure that would unite the cultural diversity of the Islamic world with the historical and modern values of architecture and art.
A Richardson’s geranium (Geranium richardsonii) leaf glows in a light fleck traveling across the forest floor littered with fallen aspen leaves. The reds of the geranium leaf, along with the strawberry leaves (Frageria virginiana) in the background, are provided by anthocyanin pigments formerly masked by the more dominant green chlorophyll. The yellow and orange aspen leaves are colored by xanthophyll and carotenoid pigments. These non-green pigments help increase light capture for photosynthesis, as well as protect the plant against ultraviolet light, cold temperatures, and pathogens. Whatever their role the combination of the pigments and the resulting diversity of colors makes autumn a lovely season, at least for a few days in this forest.

This shot is from Mount Clemens, in Yakima county of Washington state. It is overlooking the naches valley. Yakima is known for its desert climate and fruit. My goal is to show the great diversity and beauty of this often overlooked area.
Standing on the side of a logging road and looking out into Vancouver Island's rain forest, one cannot help but be amazed at the diversity of nature up in the trees. You need to stand there for a while and take it all in.
There is an amazing diversity in arctic plants, all minature-sized compared to their counterparts further south. Here is a colourful example from a south facing slope in late summer, Danmark Ø, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland.

Possibly one of the best artists in Barcelona. He perfectly combines colors and creates a very interesting color palette. Manu Twice is an expert in creating textures, reliefs, volumes and shadows that make his murals come to life. A world of sensations, memories and humor surround you when you find yourself in front of one of them.
Mer Bleue Bog, Greenbelt, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Due to the peat acidity and lack of minerals, most plants cannot survive in the bog, Sphagnum acts as an insulation against the sun and shortens the growing season by retaining the cold long after the snow melts. All these conditions make this area ideal for plants that are accustomed to the rigours of the North, and the peat bog has become the kingdom to plants of the Tundra. The Labrador Tea, Leatherleaf and Laurel: three of the main shrubs that carpet the northern tundra along with trees like the Larch (or Tamarack) and Black Spruce. Source: National Capital Commission
La tourbière de la Mer Bleue,
Ceinture de verdure, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
En raison de l'acidité de la tourbe et du manque de minéraux, la plupart des plantes ne peuvent pas survivre dans la tourbière, la sphaigne agit comme un isolant contre le soleil et raccourcit la saison de croissance en retenant le froid longtemps après la fonte des neiges. Toutes ces conditions rendent cette zone idéale pour les plantes habituées aux rigueurs du Nord, et la tourbière est devenue le royaume des plantes de la toundra. Le thé du Labrador, la feuille de cuir et le laurier : trois des principaux arbustes qui tapissent la toundra du nord ainsi que des arbres comme le mélèze laricin et l'épinette noire.

Waldspirale, Darmstadt (Hesse, Germany)
"The Waldspirale is a residential building complex in Darmstadt, Germany, built in the 1990s. The name translates into English as forest spiral, reflecting both the general plan of the building and the fact that it has a green roof. It was designed by Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, planned and implemented by architect Heinz M. Springmann, and constructed by the Bauverein Darmstadt company. The building was completed in 2000."
