Common and familiar across almost the entire Australian continent. Large gray parrot with pink underparts and a light cap. It tends to be noisy and active and is usually close to a water source. Typically feeds on the ground, where it consumes a range of seeds and grasses. Occurs in a wide range of habitats, including urban areas, parks, and gardens. Occurs in pairs, small groups, or enormous flocks. (eBird)

One of the first birds we saw in Australia, and with us all the way through to Tasmania. This particular bird thought he would show off his beautiful colours and his crest so that we knew he was a Cockatoo and not a Parrot. Of course, he could also be a shady salesman trying to sell me a cheap watch :-)

During sunset, a cloud flew in in an amazing shape (a bird, a dragon, and maybe an angel ...)

 

A little understanding of the physics of cloud formation underscores the complexity of the atmosphere and sheds light on why predicting weather for more than a few days is such a challenge.

Six types of clouds you can see and how they can help you understand the weather.

 

1) Cumulus clouds - On a sunny day, rays warm the earth, which heats the air located directly above it. The heated air rises upward due to convection and forms cumulus clouds. These “good weather” clouds are like cotton wool. If you look at the sky filled with cumulus clouds, you can see that they have a flat bottom, located at the same level for all clouds. At this altitude, air rising from ground level cools down to the dew point. It usually doesn't rain from cumulus clouds, which means the weather will be good.

 

2) Cumulonimbus clouds.

Small cumulus clouds do not rain, but if they grow and grow in height, it is a sign that heavy rain is coming soon. This often happens in summer when morning cumulus clouds turn into cumulonimbus during the day. Cumulonimbus clouds often have a flat top. Air convection occurs inside such a cloud, and it gradually cools until it reaches the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. At this moment, it loses its buoyancy and can no longer rise higher. Instead, it spreads out to the sides, forming the characteristic anvil shape.

 

3) Cirrus clouds form in very high layers of the atmosphere. They are smoky because they are composed entirely of ice crystals falling in the atmosphere. When cirrus clouds are carried by winds moving at different speeds, they take on a characteristic curved shape. And only at very high altitudes or at high latitudes, cirrus clouds give out rain that reaches the ground.

 

4) Stratus Clouds - A low-lying, continuous cloud sheet that covers the sky. Stratus clouds are formed by slowly rising air or gentle winds that cover the cold land or sea surface with moist air. Stratus clouds are thin, therefore, despite the gloomy picture, it is unlikely to rain from them, a little drizzle at most. Stratus clouds are identical to fog, so if you've ever walked in a mountainous area on a foggy day, you've been inside a cloud.

 

5) Lenticular clouds. Smooth and lenticular lenticular clouds form when air is blown up and over a mountain range, and as it travels over a mountain, the air descends to its previous level. At this time, it heats up and the cloud evaporates. But it can slip further, as a result of which the air rises again and forms another lenticular cloud. This can result in a chain of clouds extending far beyond the mountain range. The interaction of wind with mountains and other surface features is one of the many details that must be taken into account in computer simulations to obtain accurate weather predictions.

 

6) Kelvin - Helmholtz like a breaking ocean wave. When air masses at different heights move horizontally at different speeds, their state becomes unstable. The boundary between the air masses begins to ripple and form large waves, such clouds are quite rare.

 

The photo was taken in the city of Konakovo. Russia. On the banks of the Volga River.

Small tern with an entirely black body in breeding plumage with silvery wings. In the winter, their body is whitish-gray and they are not as conspicuous, but note small size, rather dark gray wings and rump, and black "helmet." Breeds in colonies in freshwater marshes and ponds. Builds a floating nest of plant matter. In migration and winter, often found in flocks. Feeds on insects and small fish. (eBird)

Despite being much larger than swallows and mosquitoes, these beautiful terns are also incredibly hard to photograph as they twist and turn in search of food on the wing.

 

John E. Poole Wetland, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada. June 2022.

Many viewers have commented that The Guardian Building (originally The Union Trust Company Building) reminded them of a church.

 

This picture shows approximately half of the bank lobby on the main floor. Imagine the original bank building with 60-90 bank teller cages lining the entire length of both sides of this "nave". The ceiling was composed of a 3/4 inch (1.9cm) of horsehair and coated with a layer of plaster cement. Then, a canvas layer was applied, and painted with designs reminiscent of the patterns of Navajo rugs. This was a sound-deadening system.

 

The "altar piece" ( I suppose) was the three-story mural of the map of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Highlighted were the major Michigan moneymakers of the1890s to 1920s: mining, manufacturing, lumber, fishing, commerce, and agriculture. It was completed in 1929, unfortunately the year of the beginning of "The Great Depression".

 

This superbly decorated Art-Deco bank building was nicknamed "The Cathedral of Finance." So, if the earlier pictures reminded you of a church (reprised in the first comment below) --you were very observant : -)

Black-and-white seabird with crisp patterning. Dark brownish-black above with white belly. Head entirely dark in breeding plumage; nonbreeding show white face with curved dark line below eye. Sides usually show some messy dark streaks. Bill is longer and more slender than similar Thick-billed Murre; but can be difficult to judge at a distance. Also note browner plumage and streaky sides on Common Murre. Breeds in colonies on rocky islands and cliffs; spends the rest of the year on the ocean. Usually single or in loose small groups; in the Atlantic, sometimes seen in loose association with Razorbills. (eBird)

Elephants are among the most intelligent of the creatures with whom we share the planet, with complex consciousnesses that are capable of strong emotions. Across Africa they have inspired respect from the people that share the landscape with them, giving them a strong cultural significance. As icons of the continent elephants are tourism magnets, attracting funding that helps protect wilderness areas. They are also keystone species, playing an important role in maintaining the biodiversity of the ecosystems in which they live.

 

During the dry season, elephants use their tusks to dig for water. This not only allows the elephants to survive in dry environments and when droughts strike, but also provides water for other animals that share harsh habitats.

 

When forest elephants eat, they create gaps in the vegetation. These gaps allow new plants to grow and create pathways for other smaller animals to use. They are also one of the major ways in which trees disperse their seeds; some species rely entirely upon elephants for seed dispersal.

 

On the savannahs, elephants feeding on tree sprouts and shrubs help to keep the plains open and able to support the plains game that inhabit these ecosystems.

 

Wherever they live, elephants leave dung that is full of seeds from the many plants they eat. When this dung is deposited the seeds are sown and grow into new grasses, bushes and trees, boosting the health of the savannah ecosystem.

 

Save the Elephant

 

Sidenote: (This kind of digital art is certainly not one of my strengths, I don't use photoshop so cutting out the model to place into a background wasn't as easy as I thought. I still have much to learn with this but felt proud enough with what I had achieved to publish this with regards to the subject. Elephants face so many more threats than loss of habitat, as do many more wild life species.)

Detail of Sony Center's roof, electrified for Sliders Sunday.

 

Sony Center, a 132,500 m² building complex at Potsdamer Platz (located across the Berliner Philharmonie), consists of several buildings of which the main complex was designed by Chicago-based architect Helmut Jahn. It was opened in 2000.

 

Sony Center's impressive 3,500 m² roof spans the entire patio, the so-called Forum. The spectacular roof construction consists of safety glass and translucent fabric panels which are attached by tie rods to a steel ring that rests on the surrounding buildings. The roof's shape represents Japan's Mount Fuji. In Japanese mythology, the Kami – holy powers or spirits that are worshipped in Shinto religion – live in the mountains. Since Berlin lies in a mostly flat region and has no real mountains to speak of, the roof's design was supposed to ensure the Kami's protection for Sony's European headquarters (today, Sony's German branch is located at Sony Center) by building them an artificial mountain to live in.

 

Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone!

 

Detail des Daches des Berliner Sony Centers am Potsdamer Platz (und gegenüber der Berliner Philharmonie). Eines der bekanntesten Merkmale des 132.000 m² großen Gebäudekomplexes ist das auffällig geformte, 3.500 m² große Dach, das den gesamten Innenhof, das sogenannte Forum, des Sony Centers überspannt. Die bemerkenswerte Stahlkonstruktion, die aus Sicherheitsglas sowie lichtdurchlässigen Stoffbahnen besteht, die mit Zug-Ankern an einem Stahlring befestigt sind, der auf den umliegenden Gebäuden aufliegt, wurde vom österreichischen Stahlbau-Unternehmen Waagner-Biro realisiert.

 

Die markante äußere Form des Daches symbolisiert Japans heiligen Berg Fujisan. Nach japanischem Glauben werden die Berge von den Kami bewohnt, gottähnlichen Geistern. Um auch für das Sony Center, das ursprünglich Sonys Europäischer Hauptsitz war (heute residiert dort Sonys deutsche Zweigniederlassung) den Schutz der Kami sicherzustellen – und da Berlin bekanntermaßen in flachem Gelände liegt und über keine echten Berge verfügt –, wurde das Dach der Form des Fujisan nachempfunden, um den Kami einen "Berliner Wohnsitz" zu schaffen.

 

Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Wochenstart, liebe Flickr-Freunde, passt gut auf Euch auf!

Gracie Jo was sitting at the crest of a low hill, in a position to pick up a lot of neighborhood smells--from multiple directions. And "smell" she did. She looked very serious about it. (hence, the title)

Egyptian Goose - Alopochen Aegyptiacus

 

Once common along the entire Nile valley and regarded as sacred in ancient times, the Egyptian Goose is no longer an easy bird to see in the country from which it takes its name, as it is largely confined to upper Egypt. It is, however, widespread and common throughout sub-Saharan Africa, with introduced populations firmly established in England, Holland, Belgium and France. Concerns over conflict with native species has led to restrictions on keeping them in Britain and Europe.

 

This distinctive small goose is a member of the shelduck family. In the wild it is invariably found in pairs or family parties, while flocks of 50 or more can be found after the breeding season. The sexes are similar: both have a conspicuous chestnut patch encircling the eyes, giving them a somewhat piratical appearance, while the brilliant white forewing is obvious when they fly.

 

The UK Invasive Alien Species (Enforcement and Permitting) Order 2019 came into force on Sunday 1st December. The Order implements requirements contained in EU Regulation 1143/2014 on Invasive Alien Species, which sets out rules to prevent and minimise the impact of the introduction and spread of non-native animals and plants across the EU. The Order makes it an offence, amongst other things, to import, keep, sell, transport, breed or release into the environment, any of the listed plants and animals. Invasive alien waterfowl currently covered by this Order are Egyptian Geese and Ruddy Ducks Oxyura jamaicensis.

   

Green-crowned Woodnymph - Woodnymphs (Thalurania) are medium-sized hummingbirds with a slightly decurved, black bill; the males also have a noticeably forked tail, and glittering throat and belly. They inhabit the understory of humid lowland forest and in adjacent advanced second growth, and often are common. The Green-crowned Woodnymph is the representative of this genus that occurs from eastern Panama south to southwestern Ecuador. As the name implies, this is the only species of woodnymph in which the crown of the male is glittering green. Four subspecies of Green-crowned Woodnymph are recognized. The three northern subspecies all are very similar: the male has a green throat but a blue breast and belly, while the female has a gray throat and the belly is mixed dark gray and dark green. The southernmost subspecies, hypochlora of southwestern Ecuador, is very different, however: the male is entirely green below, while the underparts of the female are all pale gray.

Yellow-headed blackbirds are not entirely uncommon west of the Cascades but they usually stay well clear of people. For whatever reason, on this day in late April, I was able to get close. A nice treat! Apparently this was an aberration as on several days since they stay at least 50 yards away.

This large museum of natural history combines three museums into one, including a four-story taxonomy wing, a building of skeletons and fossils and a separate structure devoted entirely to geology.

This shot was edited entirely for my liking. Only the colours are not modified.

I improved brightness, saturation, clarity, sharpness, structure and I added a little of HDR. :)

On this day in 2012 I spent a wonderful morning in Dismal Swamp, the largest sinkhole of its kind in Australia. Entry is through the Visitor Centre and restaurant perch at the top of the sinkhole where you can view the forest from a cantilevered walkway, suspended over the treetops.

 

To reach the Blackwood forest floor, visitors may take the 400 metre walk down into the sinkhole, or ride the 110m slide that whisks them through the trees at 40 Kph in just 20 seconds.

 

Here is a view of the slide from the top of the sinkhole. For me it was a no brainer, I was taking the slide. The ride on the slide was 20 seconds of sheer terror as it twists and plunges into another reality. When you step out, you are in an entirely different world.

   

MacroMonday, Evolution

 

I'm not convinced this fits the theme, but it does depict change.

(ps. the entire frame is just less than 3")

31-december-2021: during this shot, with the city lights switched on, the darkness was almost complete, but once again the residual brightness of the late twilight manages to illuminate the image sufficiently.

You can see, under the fog, some patches of light that come from the City.

 

In the stillness the air stratifies and the denser, colder and humid one goes downwards to stagnate and to condense on the Gulf of Venice, that of Trieste, the coasts and the surrounding plains.

  

Europe, Spain, Andalucia, Almeria, Centre, Art installation (slightly cut)

 

While processing the previous shot, I remembered that I captured another love lock shot some years ago, way down in southern Spain, in Almeria. It’s an art installation and an example of communal art. On the shiny structure in the middle is a fitting quote: “Es propio del amor si es verdadero, compendiar en un ser el munda entero” – “It is characteristic of love, if it is true, to summarize the entire world in one being” (Ramón de Campoamor).

 

This is number 43 of Andalucia (& Valencia) Summer 2018 and of course 1391 of Minimalism / explicit Graphism .

ELLIE GOULDING – YOUR SONG

 

FREEDOM

 

Seated in my dining room

I look towards the patio

where Buddha watches over me

through closed and hooded lids

so wise; so tranquil; so knowledgeable

an oasis of calm upon the ledge of the boundary of my life

my life may seem smaller now in some respects

my plans may have recently been shelved

but within the confines of my garden

my world is complete and in perfect harmony

there will be time enough I hope

when the illness that restricts my movements

has ended it's journey so that mine can then begin

this year I wanted to travel more

to see new places and revisit old memories

but “life is what happens

when we are making other plans” clichéd, yet true

so here I am and I can either watch the world go by

or I can wait for the world to come to me

for our knowledge of the world can be completely found

within the intricacies of nature; from the smallest insect

to the tallest tree and I can still lay on the grass

and look up to the sky; watch clouds endlessly floating by

imagine where they've been and all that they have seen

their watchful gaze takes in my form and carries it along

to another sky where someone else is also watching

how exciting it is to be a part of something

so much bigger than we are

the Universe; the Moon; the Sun and stars

I am not unique, but I am a part of you

and you are a part of me; together we make up the world

and who is to say that collective consciousness

is not within the clouds

or in the blinking of a shooting star;

or even a speck of dust carried on the wind

tomorrow that dust may settle on your shoulder or your shoe

and as you brush it gently away think of me

and I will know by the sound of the whispering wind

as it gently touches my face that the thought of me has travelled

and the thought of you is here,

so though we may stand still and barely move at all

we have in fact travelled the world together

have you ever caught a glimpse of a shadow

within your peripheral vision

only to turn and there is nothing there

perhaps that is me or one of you;

or at least the imprint that you have made upon this world

that travels freely within your mind and mine;

no borders can prevent this freedom that we have

the freedom of our minds can take us to the moon and back

in the blinking of an eye and the rain that falls on me

may someday fall on you; and can you see what happens

when raindrops trickle down the window

they merge and form a pool and that is us

one drop at a time we form the world; the whole.

Catbirds give the impression of being entirely slate gray. With a closer look you’ll see a small black cap, blackish tail, and a rufous-brown patch under the tail

 

Gray Catbirds are relatives of mockingbirds and thrashers, and they share that group’s vocal abilities, copying the sounds of other species and stringing them together to make their own song. including the catlike mewing responsible for its name.....a succession of musical and mechanical notes and phrases.

The most important building, not only of the monumental complex of Ingapirca but also of the entire North of the Inca Empire was and is this elliptical Temple whose major axis is 37.10 m by 12.36 m of the minor and 4.10 m Tall. It has 11 parallel rows whose perfectly joined joints and sores present a careful work of padded and overlapping ashlars according to the traditional norms of classical Cuzco architecture. Its construction was due to a process of adaptation of the elliptical design conceived by the Inca architect on the outcrop of a rock that stood out in that place at the top of a deep ravine. This rock was shaped like an ellipse and proceeded to coat it with those symmetrically carved blocks.

 

Although the external parts of the joints have a perfect union, internally you can check the use of mortar based on a clay with a high cement content and that exists only in Ingapirca which, due to its presentation and color, the farmers follow calling with the quichua terminology of "quillucaca" (yellow droppings). The temple is linked to the Ceremonial Square through a ramp that ascends to a trapezoidal door in the center of the major axis, on its south side. When passing this door, one encounters a beautiful typically Inca niche and the wall of the evil called "guard body", so it must be turned to the sides where two small opposite stairways arise that allow to reach the temple platform. From there the view is wonderful because the entire Hatun Cañar Valley is dominated and the ruins of the monument are appreciated.

 

The elliptical platform is divided in its central part by the presence of two enclosures whose fronts face opposite, one towards the east and the other towards the west. These two rooms are separated by a mediating wall with evidence of trapezoidal niches or niches; while in its north and south walls, which end in tall gables, two niches the size of a man appear and match the entrance doors to each enclosure. This building with two opposite environments and without windows is considered the sanctuary of the sun. In the opinion of the archaeastronomic scholars, through its doors the rays of the rising sun (eastern room) and the west (western room) entered the niches of the mediating wall, indicating periods of illumination and shadow according to the periodic variations in the output and sunset of the star king. According to Ziólkowski's experiments, the eastern room would have been illuminated in the period of the December solstice, while the western one in the June solstice, a phenomenon interpreted by Aboriginal priests and sages to announce their feasts and the beginning of sowing and harvesting respectively in the fields.

 

On the northern part of the Temple, that is, in Barranco, four retaining walls, now restored and consolidated, stand out, giving it a total contrast with the south side; because while in this sector everything is flat and accessible, in Barranco everything is pending and rugged. These contrasts generate in the visitor two different attitudes: the one of security and the other of anguish and vertigo. In any case, the danger is annulled with the presence of an extraordinary Inca wall that extends from the Ellipse to the West, separating the cozy spaces of the Akllahuasi from those inaccessible from the precipice. It is the wall that still keeps intact the original finish of its carvers and builders from five hundred years ago.

I loved the way the sun illuminated the duck's wings as he turned in flight.

This is a Venetian Pitcher made on the Island of Murano. It is a popular Murano technique called Millefiori (a thousand flowers) which was invented by Murano Glass masters centuries ago. It is crafted entirely by hand and is created from hundreds of unique colorful millefiori pieces fused together under high temperature in a special furnace. We were fortunate to take a tour to this glass factory and watch the masters at work. This little vase is 5" tall and 4" at it's widest part. This shot is taken looking into the pitcher.

Black-tailed Deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus)

 

"The black-tailed deer is one of nine subspecies of the mule deer. It was first recorded by the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804-06.

Black-tailed deer live in the temperate coniferous forests along the Pacific coast. These forests are characterized by cool temperatures and lots of rain, but an overall mild climate. Black-tailed deer do not therefore migrate in response to seasonal changes, unlike some of the other mule deer subspecies. Instead, black-tailed deer often spend their entire life in the same general area.

Black-tailed deer can be distinguished from mule deer by their larger tail, the back of which is completely covered with black or dark brown hairs. Mule deer have smaller tails in which only the tip is covered with black hairs. Black-tailed deer are generally smaller than mule deer."

A unique dimension that the beam of sunlight bought into the Canyon, a smoky soul. It is the falling sand that is shimmering in the sunlight.

 

One of my most favorite of places on earth! This one is from he upper Antelope Canyon.

 

I took the photography tour where you get more time and get to take a tripod with you. The canyon gets this beam of straight sunlight for a few minutes that makes the canyon a magical place to be at!

 

I can spend the whole week walking and taking pictures here (only if I don't have to earn a living!). Every curve gives you a unique perspective and every turn is an entirely different world!

Are we spending too much time infighting politically and forgetting the real global danger to the entire world. Peace and harmony are the only solutions but in order to achieve them we must work endlessly to that goal.

 

Shouldn't our politicians, news organizations, technology empires and vast corporations get involved in protecting humanity and our environment?
