In all respects this gannet colony is on the edge.

Created in Deep Dream Generator from a photo I shot of a hibiscus that was growing in one of my gardens a few years ago.

This is a resident raptor of the subcontinent seen all through the year, but becomes more visible after the rainy season starts. Their range though is pretty large spreading all the way across to Europe and parts of Africa.

The Snake eagles prefer snakes as their main diet and hence the name. We see them often on the edges of lakes or in grasslands where snakes are easy to catch for these birds. These are also one of the few eagles that I know of that hover in the air just like a Kestrel although at significant height compared to the Kestrel.

These Eagles are generally seen mornings and evenings like this on the top of trees in the grasslands roosting and waiting for the Sun to come up since they are quite dependent on thermals to fly high.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback.

The way my morning started out.

Crimson blood burns beneath my skin

Breathe the night, keep it safe within

And I'll repent no sins, for I have none

Run towards the edge

Don't look back and fret

Fly before you fall

You will conquer all

Seasons change as I lie awake,

See the skies fade, as the sun will break

And I'll regret nothing that I have done

Run towards the edge

Don't look back and fret

Fly before you fall

You will conquer all

Run towards the edge

Run towards the edge

And we'll regret nothing that we have done

Run towards the edge

Don't look back and fret

Fly before you fall

You will conquer all

The view from Blackstone Edge near Littleborough as the weather finally begins to clear. The sense of wildness of the countryside, somewhat tempered by the numbers of wind turbines visible in this part of the South Pennines.

Hydro electricity would be a great way to go in Iceland, but then there is so much geothermal activity on the Island that I suppose it doesn't matter how you do it. Energy is abundant in this part of the world, from natural renewable sources. This is one of millions of waterfalls on this island. In fact after visiting Iceland all other waterfalls have paled in comparison. It the type of place to go if you love waterfalls as there are so many that most in the backcountry go unmarked unless they are monstrous. This is an unmarked waterfall in the backcountry. Many of the most beautiful places in Iceland require a jeep capable of being submerged around 3 feet deep in a river. Some places more. I have a new found respect for the capabilities of modern automobiles after visiting this place.

Thank you for your previous comments. I hadn't planned to post anything, but felt inspired by Macro Monday's "Edge" theme today. Surely still feel edgy!

This is a long section of 'wallboard cap molding' from which one can hang framed art without punching extra holes in wood or wallboard.

The right side is 19.05mm in height. I bounced an SB800 speedlight against a semi-reflective warm surface. Balanced the molding on two glass salt and pepper shakers, hence a few bokeh balls.

Thanks for your comments. I read them all gratefully.

Would this look edgier in B&W?

With a view of the Derwent Valley in the distance. This was before Mr Sun briefly popped his head out. And brief it was too.

The best way to manage the heath at Kinver Edge sensitively is to graze it with cattle. The National Trust use a herd of English Longhorn cows, an ancient breed, who crush the bracken, chomp on bramble and nibble leaves and grass. Their trampling creates bare sandy areas that bees nest in and releases heather seeds. By roaming around they naturally create a ‘mosaic’ of different habitats across the landscape, which is ideal for wildlife.
