Wile driving along the Eastern Parkway in Ottawa last week, I discovered This very narrow, golden strip of land with water on both sides creating some pretty amazing reflections as you can see.
The Byasa alcinous (Atrophaneura alcinous) is a swallowtail butterfly distributed mainly in East Asia. It is called Chinese windmill in English and jakouageha in Japanese. It is divided into several subspecies; the present one is B. a. miyakoensis, which is considered to be among the most beautiful one. A female at Irabu Island, Miyakojima, Okinawa, Japan

Note to anyone learning English...that's not the correct spelling of the verb 'to conquer'. These are horse chestnuts, also known as conkers. As in the game of conkers...since banned in many UK schools as kids may get bits of conker in the eye... (grrrr no comment).
Anyway, about this time of year they fall from the horse chestnut trees, so many here in Turkey...but I've never seen anyone playing conkers here...
Across Forest Canyon from this overlook point at 11,716', the peaks of the Continental Divide form the mountainous backbone which demarks whether rivers flow east toward the Atlantic, or west toward the Pacific.
To reach this overlook you drive the Trail Ridge Road (US HWY 34), the highest continuous road in the United States. But, be aware the road is closed from mid-October until June due to severe weather.
Unfortunately I can't recall the name of this old French fortress but I do recall moving off it quickly as the rain came in.

No one has offered a better diagnosis of unhappiness and frustration than Frank Sheed. “Unhappiness,” he said, “is always unused or ill-used spiritual energy; and man has within himself so many energies made for God, that, lacking God, these energies cannot be satisfied, and can only turn in upon man and rend him.”3 He further said, “For fullness of being, man must have a knowledge of and a co-operation with that which maintains him in existence, that which is the very condition of his be-ing at all . . . There is an abyss of nothingness at the very heart of our being, and we had better counter it by the fullest possible use of our kinship with the Infinite, who is also at the very heart of our being.”4 Our pilgrimage is therefore neither eastwards nor westwards, but inwards; and this is what I call moving beyond East and West.
