Watching the sun rise or set over the sand dunes of Merzouga may be the most spectacular experience you have on your trip to Morocco. The Erg Chebbi, the name of these sand dunes, is said to have some of the highest dunes in Morocco. Indeed, the dunes and the desert wildlife are impressive.
The dunes of Erg Chebbi is a strikingly strange natural formation. On the top of the flattest area you could imagine, suddenly a long mountain of sand rises. This mountain is surrounded by flat and desolate nature on all sides, and you could end up wondering if it really is real. But so it is, even if its existence is so weird that it has given rise to lengeds and myths among the locals. One legend tells us that the dunes of Erg Chebbi were created by God as a punishment to the locals of nearby Merzouga after they refused to give shelter to a woman and her child during a local festival. A sandstorm came, and buried the village of Merzouga is it was then.
Morocco and especially Sahara desert with its very dark skies is perfect for seeing and also capturing the night sky with the glorious Milky Way. The sky in the desert is wonderfully dark with minimum light pollution, which gives a great sight, which you can also see in the :

The existence of 3rd class travel was an eye opener to me when i visited Sri Lanka recently. To be honest there wasn't much difference between 3rd and 2nd nor 1st on some trains.
These old carriages were built in Romania in the 1940s and are very basic. The ride is incredible and you feel that the carriage could bounce off the track at any time. You get used to the noise of metal on metal as the suspension struggles to separate the carriage from the bogies.
Sri Lanka is a colourful country. This lady looks for her seat on this service heading north which is listed as an Office Train. The time was 1545ish and the location Colombo Fort station. Normally you would expect the train to be full to bursting with 4 or 5 passengers hanging out of each door.

This lemur was photographed in an area called the spiny forest.
Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi), or the white sifaka, is a medium-sized primate in one of the lemur families, the Indriidae. It lives in Madagascar and can be found in a variety of habitats from rainforest to western Madagascar dry deciduous forests and dry and spiny forests.
Its fur is thick and silky and generally white with brown on the sides, top of the head, and on the arms. Like all sifakas, it has a long tail that it uses as a balance when leaping from tree to tree. However, its body is so highly adapted to an arboreal existence, on the ground its only means of locomotion is hopping.
The species lives in small troops which forage for food.
The Madagascar spiny forests (also known as the Madagascar spiny thickets) is an ecoregion in the southwest of Madagascar. The vegetation type is found on poor substrates with low, erratic winter rainfall. The ecoregion contains an outstanding proportion of endemic plant species and is part of the Global 200.
Notable inhabitants of the spiny thickets include the spider tortoise (Pyxis arachnoides) and the radiated tortoise (Astrochelys radiata), the gecko Ebenavia maintimainty, several lemurs including Verreaux's sifaka, Grandidier's mongoose, and eight endemic birds.

Blue's family had a history of being loners. The trait seemed to be passed from generation to generation. Turns out, Blue's family was just Dicks!

When the North Valley's only open space, Anderson Field, was saved (mostly) from development and became Los Poblanos open space--multi-use was the name of the plan. I'd say it has been very effective.

We preach it ,animals practise it.:-)
I took this shot while driving through Kaziranga National Park on our way from Tezpur to Jorhat in Assam.The animals and birds were very far away but I have tried to capture this interesting scene.
If you concentrate,you can see a pair of rhinos to the left and a pair of wild buffaloes to the right of the shot.There is a mixed assortment of birds there.If you look very carefully just above the left rhino you might also spot a deer.All going about their business peacefully like mature people while we fight it out with each other on the basis of religion,colour,caste,class etc.:-)
The consist of MARC train 273 receives service during layover at the yard in Brunswick MD on the evening of 6 August 1992. Power is E8A No. 60 and F9PH No. 81. For a few years MARC assembled a fleet of E-units from various sources to supplement the F-units. Blue No. 60 was leased from Omni Associates, who owned four ex-NJ Transit streamliners, and was previously NJT No. 4327, rebuilt by ICG Paducah Shops from Illinois Central No. 4023. At last report the E-units were still in existence, parked in Cleveland. I never got a shot of the 4327 in the lead while running in Jersey, so this picture will have to stand in.
In another existence, just outside our own, is the forgotten city of Dingir. Its streamlined Art Deco architecture was once filled with bright colors and rich materials, meant to reflect the beginning of a new age of consciousness. Now muted and neglected, it lies somewhere between our dreams and reality.
Dingir served as a crossroads between the human-bound Dreamers and the entities that would become humans. These creatures were known as “Those Who See and Observe”.
They entered Dreamers’ subconscious and helped guide them along on their path. However, there were some Dreamers that became too strong and aware, which gave them the ability to reach through the barrier between worlds, causing chaos and irreparable damage to Dingir, and places like it.
