This is the last picture (eventually!) in my series of 18 pictures about the European Hardcourt Bike Polo Championship (EHBPC) – Zaragoza 2015. You may want to visit the whole collection of ordered pictures in the album flic.kr/s/aHskmdhZ8N where you'll find some explanation about the context and making of the series.
I must have taken at least 100 shots of this village. Although its a hill top village it is also surronded by hills which meant that I could never get it in direct sunlight during the golden hour. It was also difficult trying to find a location with a clear shot without any trees blocking the view. I eventually decided to use the trees to my advantage and used this little bit of of framing to add some depth.

Golf ball to golf ball, however, are just puffballs that eventually dissolve.
Before I went outdoor this evening, I saw dark clouds in the sky. I was expecting rain. But the dark clouds were eventually blown away by the wind and the rain did not come.
Found this Great Egret getting breakfast at a local pond. Made My Day !!
The feather was eventually lost to the wind and water... not a Ladies Hat : )
The elegant Great Egret is a dazzling sight in many a North American wetland. Slightly smaller and more svelte than a Great Blue Heron, these are still large birds with impressive wingspans.
They hunt in classic heron fashion, standing immobile or wading through wetlands to capture fish with a deadly jab of their yellow bill. Great Egrets were hunted nearly to extinction for their plumes in the late nineteenth century, sparking conservation movements and some of the first laws to protect birds.
Great Egrets fly slowly but powerfully: with just two wing-beats per second their cruising speed is around 25 miles an hour.
Though it mainly hunts while wading, the Great Egret occasionally swims to capture prey or hovers (somewhat laboriously) over the water and dips for fish.
The oldest known Great Egret was 22 years, 10 months old and was banded in Ohio.

The Bressanone (Brixen) Cathedral was built in 980. Eventually, after two fires, the Romanesque design with its three naves and two front towers was constructed (around 1200). A Baroque design was later constructed in 1745-1754.
The Bressanone Cathedral's cloister is one of the most important monuments of art in South Tyrol. The cloister is famous in particular for its Gothic frescoes. It was originally built in pre Romanesque times but later redesigned in Romanesque and Gothic style.
A cloister (from Latin claustrum, "enclosure") is a covered walk, open gallery, or open arcade running along the walls of a building.
The attachment of a cloister to a cathedral or church usually indicates that it was part of a monastic foundation forming a continuous and solid architectural barrier that effectively separated the world of the monks from that of the serfs and workmen, whose lives and works went on outside and around the cloister.

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it.

Lemon flower and buds.
If you look closely at the flower you can see the tiny lemon that will eventually grow into a large lemon.
Have a good one

I was standing in about a foot and a half of water and this big fella swam right up and checked me out. It eventually decided that I was not edible.

Eventually all of the pieces will fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion,
live for the moment and know that everything happens for a reason.
Happy New Year Flickr friends 🎉
Came across this broken decayed barn, the date on its 1870, love seeing old barns, sometimes I think if those walls could talk.

Monuments of life

We fade away in time, oh
Just two ordinary people you and me
Time will turn us into statues eventually

The chimneys are a result of a geologic process that began millions of years ago, when volcanic eruptions rained ash across what would eventually become Turkey. That ash hardened into tuff, a porous rock, which was covered by a layer of basalt. Finally, the long work of erosion began. As millennia passed, the softer tuff wore down, giving way to pillars that stand as tall as 130 feet. The harder basalt erodes more slowly, forming a protective, mushroom-shaped cap over each one. Just like that, a fairy chimney is born — no pixie dust required.

Tulum (Spanish pronunciation: [tuˈlum], Yucatec Maya: Tulu'um) is the site of a pre-Columbian Mayan walled city which served as a major port for Coba, in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo] The ruins are situated on 12-meter (39 ft) tall cliffs along the east coast of the Yucatán Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico.Tulum was one of the last cities built and inhabited by the Maya; it was at its height between the 13th and 15th centuries and managed to survive about 70 years after the Spanish began occupying Mexico. Old World diseases brought by the Spanish settlers appear to have resulted in very high fatalities, disrupting the society, and eventually causing the city to be abandoned.[citation needed] One of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites, Tulum is today a popular site for tourists.

Mt. St. Helens, which last erupted 36 years ago and is rebuilding itself with a lava dome inside the crater, ( which eventually will form her new top ) and lot of new growth, including an abundance of wildflowers this year.

I tried for this shot last weekend but an eastbound never came through. I waited patiently for 90 minutes but eventually it got too dark. So, I went back today and got lucky. I was hoping for an eastbound train while there was enough light in the sky to use the colorful clouds for a backdrop. I hoped. I got :-)
Have a great weekend everyone :-)

Everything eventually succumbs to the rigors of the high-desert of Southern Utah.
I suppose what attracts me to images of western dead trees is the evidence of a life of willful endurance so openly exposed in their texture and shape. These roots and branches are so twisted and wrought in order to make their way to life sustaining nutrients, hold fast during intense storms and enable this life to take advantage of beautiful days when the skies are clear, the sun is bright, the winds are calm, and the soil is fertile.
Most of us don't think of trees as much more than inanimate objects. What I see here is an aggressive, zealous approach to life, built over decades, which - when it did end, for whatever reason - did not go quietly into that good night.
Due to personal misalignments I wasn't and will still not be able to be here much in the next weeks/months.I have no intention to completely give up on Flickr but I expect my presence here to be very intermittent so I will totally understand if you will choose to be less active on my account. Still hope you will keep me in your contacts as I will eventually be back in a more sustainable manner.
For now all I can do is say thank you so much for your friendship and support that mean a lot to me and wish you a wonderful Summer!

Eventually this Otter emerged from the water's edge clambering up a prominent large rock which it used as a sprainting site. It then descended and moved rapidly between the rocks disappearing, presumably into its holt in the bank.
Thank you all for your kind responses.
why he turned up today is thankful!
It was snowing when first arrived for two hours but was kept occupied with other activity...
eventually on cue... Cuckoo!... cuckoo he called out his warning
but never stayed long, probably other things on his mind... like finding a mate
The Pont du Gard is an ancient Roman aqueduct that crosses the Gardon River in southern France. Located near the town of Vers-Pont-du-Gard, the bridge is part of the Nîmes aqueduct, a 50-kilometre (31 mi) system built in the first century AD to carry water from a spring at Uzès to the Roman colony of Nemausus (Nîmes). Because of the uneven terrain between the two points, the mostly underground aqueduct followed a long, winding route that called for a bridge across the gorge of the Gardon River. The Pont du Gard is the highest of all elevated Roman aqueducts, and, along with the Aqueduct of Segovia, one of the best preserved. It was added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1985 because of its historical importance.
The bridge has three tiers of arches, standing 48.8 m (160 ft) high. The whole aqueduct descends in height by only 17 m (56 ft) over its entire length, while the bridge descends by a mere 2.5 centimetres (1 in) – a gradient of only 1 in 3,000 – which is indicative of the great precision that Roman engineers were able to achieve, using only simple technology. The aqueduct formerly carried an estimated 200,000 m3 (44,000,000 imp gal) of water a day to the fountains, baths and homes of the citizens of Nîmes. It continued to be used possibly until the 6th century, with some parts used for significantly longer, but lack of maintenance after the 4th century meant that it became increasingly clogged by mineral deposits and debris that eventually choked off the flow of water.

After a mostly sunny afternoon in the Olympic Peninsula rain shadow, the clouds started rolling in before sunset. They eventually obscured most of the sun before it set but made for some dramatic lighting through the evening.
For quite a few years this armature did it's job in the vacuum control module of my 2001 Audi A4. Eventually the pump parts failed and I could no longer lock any of the doors. I replaced the module and put the old one in a drawer for future dissection, that was around 2008. A contact has been posting his collection of small armatures so I thought I'd see what I could come up with myself. This one was shot with a single light source placed to the right of the camera for the Macro Mondays theme, "Sidelit". The armature measures app. 1 in. X 0.75 in., the copper shaft diameter is 0.25 in.

Pigeon Point, between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz, California. Much more here than just the lighthouse.
I was torn between color and black and white on this shot. Color won out this time, but B&W is cool too, so look for that one in the near future.

Kräftiges Schneetreiben am Nachmittag, da darf man nicht lange überlegen. Ich packte schnell meine Kamera aber nach einer Stunde taute es schon wieder.
Non-emergent leaves of the American lotus (Nelumbo lutea, Nelumbonaceae) lie on the water surface in a wetland pond of Lake Butte des Morts in Terrell's Island Preserve in Winnebago County between Oshkosh and Omro, Wisconsin.
Note the lotus effect, which causes water to bead up and eventually wash off keeping the leaf clean and able to perform efficient photosynthesis.

I felt like Indiana Jones here ... I would begin this with "The Long Corridor eventually led to a subterranean room sunk into a maze of arches, deep shadows and sputtering light and was obviously intense with Cob Webs and Traps … somehow we managed to get to this point but how would we get down into the room below ... there were going to be puzzles and poisons and swinging blades. My breath quickened as I heard a noise approaching from behind... "
Or something like that …
In our reality, we were in a large Cathedral in Germany and this alcove was off to one side in a far corner that you could simply walk past as the lighting was weak and the shadows strong. Perfect for a photograph to take back home :)
I enjoyed working on this image and because of the lighting I was able to get some interesting variations. In the end, this is the one I chose,
It's feeding time on a stormy early spring afternoon. We survived our 2nd round of severe weather in the last 5 days. No major damage in our immediate area but unfortunately plenty nearby. The next 7 days look great though with ample amounts of sunshine and high temperatures eventually making it into the 70s.
What a winter we have had! I just keep trying to remember that spring will eventually come and the scenery will again be alive with green grass and wildflowers. #spring #idaho #idahocounty
Eventually the waiting will pay off

We did eventually find an area where most of the Hepaticas had a blue tone to them, although they were not as blue as in some pics we saw from previous years. It was not certain whether there is just variation from year to year and plant to plant, but we still found these to be quite attractive little flowers. St Francois State Park in Missouri
