Schloss Sigmaringen was the princely castle and seat of government for the Princes of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. Situated in the Swabian Alb region of Baden-Württemberg, Germany, this castle dominates the skyline of the town of Sigmaringen. The castle was rebuilt following a fire in 1893, and only the towers of the earlier medieval fortress remain. Schloss Sigmaringen was a family estate of the Swabian Hohenzollern family, a cadet branch of the Hohenzollern family, from which the German Emperors and kings of Prussia came.

The castle and museums may be visited throughout the year, but only on guided tours.

This is the most magical photo I brought back from my Madeira trip. A little treasure for me, because being able to capture such a fleeting moment is something very special.

Originally we had planned something completely different for this day. And we were on the mountains on the opposite side. As you can already guess from here, the visibility was rather low there (it was basically close to zero). However, since we had once worked our way up what felt like 10,000 switchbacks on a very narrow and steep road (half of them in the fog and rain), we looked for an alternative nearby. This was then the valley of the nuns, a beautiful place in the middle of the mountains,

Opposite the small church, which can be seen at the front edge of the village, we had a coffee and the owner encouraged us to drive up here.

Since it was still raining on the other side of the valley, but the sun was just breaking through the cloud cover here, this fantastic rainbow suddenly appeared while we were still hiking.

You can probably imagine the rush that broke out for me to get the camera out of my backpack in time. This is one of two photos I was able to take, after which the rainbow was gone.

Dies ist das magischste Foto, welches ich von meiner Madeira Reise mitgebracht habe. Für mich ein kleiner Schatz, denn einen solchen flüchtigen Moment festhalten zu können ist schon etwas ganz besonderes.

Urspünglich hatten wir für diesen Tag etwas ganz anderes geplant. Und zwar waren wir auf den Bergen auf der gegenüber liegenden Seite unterwegs. Wie man von hier aus schon erahnen kann war dort die Sicht eher gering (im Grunde war sie nahe Null). Da wir uns jedoch einmal diese gefühlt 10.000 Serpentinen auf einer sehr engen und steilen Strasse hier herauf gearbeitet hatten (die Hälfte davon im Nebel und Regen), suchten wir nach einer Alternative in der Nähe. Diese war dann das Tal der Nonnen, ein wunderschöner Ort mitten in den Bergen,

Gegenüber der kleinen Kirche, die man am vorderen Rand des Dorfes erkennt haben wir einen Kaffee getrunken und der Besitzer hat uns dazu animiert hier hoch zu fahren.

Da es auf der anderen Seite des Tales immernoch regnete, bei uns jedoch gerade die Sonne durch die Wolkendecke brach erschien plötzlich, während, wir noch beim Aufstieg waren, dieser fantastische Regenbogen.

Die Hektik, die dann bei mir ausbracht, um die Kamera noch rechtzeitig aus dem Rucksack zu bekommen, könnt Ihr Euch vielleicht ungefähr vorstellen. Dies ist eins von zwei Fotos, die ich in der Lage war zu machen, danach war der Regenbogen wieder weg.

Three Alaska railroad GP's prepare to load out the rest of the ARMS barge on a typical Whittier day. Cold, wet, and foggy pretty much sums up this all season port with the original military era housing standing in the background. One of the neat things about the Whittier switch stands is that they all are some how lit at the same time in this shot and no its not photoshopped. After loading is complete these three Gp's will depart under the cover of darkness for Anchorage.

Have a great weekend...

The wood was often used for tool handles. Mānuka sawdust imparts a delicious flavour when used for smoking meats and fish.[citation needed] It is cultivated in Australia and New Zealand for mānuka honey, produced when honeybees gather the nectar from its flowers, and for the pharmaceutical industry. It is also used for carving. An essential oil, for which many medicinal claims are made, is produced by steam distillation of its leaves. Mānuka, as it is called by most New Zealanders, was used in pre-European times by Māori, and still is. A decoction of the leaves was drunk for urinary complaints and as a febrifuge (an agent for reducing fever). The steam from leaves boiled in water was inhaled for head colds. A decoction was prepared from the leaves and bark and the warm liquid was rubbed on stiff muscles and aching joints. The emollient white gum, called pai mānuka, was given to nursing babies and also used to treat scalds and burns. Chewing the bark is said to have a relaxing effect and it enhances sleep

I was probably more surprised than this Pileated Woodpecker when it was suddenly right in front of me as I walked through a wooded area. It did stay there while I took a couple of close range photos and kept walking. A high ISO shot from the darkness of the tree canopy.

An Eastern Kingbird (Tyrannus tyrannus) surveys the neighborhood from a high pine tree perch. And just for fun, I'll add that it's best not to mess with this guy. See below. :-)

"The scientific name Tyrannus means “tyrant, despot, or king,” referring to the aggression kingbirds exhibit with each other and with other species," says the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. "When defending their nests, they will attack much larger predators like hawks, crows, and squirrels. They have been known to knock unsuspecting Blue Jays out of trees."

For a peaceful 2nd Advent Sunday!

Macro Mondays , May31,2021

Theme : Orange

With the deadly second wave and so many things happening around, photography has taken a back seat. My daughter pushed me to participate in today's challenge.

This was the concept shot I had taken, thinking will redo it with better setup.. but just couldn't push myself to do another take .. so here it is... shot on my phone and highly cropped so please excuse the grains.

Hope you all are safe and healthy in your part of the world.

Editing: Crop, brightness adjustment
