Tulips (Tulipa) form a genus of spring-blooming perennial herbaceous bulbiferous geophytes (having bulbs as storage organs). The flowers are usually large, showy and brightly coloured, generally red, pink, yellow, or white (usually in warm colours). They often have a different coloured blotch at the base of the tepals (petals and sepals, collectively), internally. Because of a degree of variability within the populations, and a long history of cultivation, classification has been complex and controversial. The tulip is a member of the Liliaceae (lily) family, along with 14 other genera, where it is most closely related to Amana, Erythronium and Gagea in the tribe Lilieae. There are about 75 species, and these are divided among four subgenera. The name "tulip" is thought to be derived from a Persian word for turban, which it may have been thought to resemble.
Tulips originally were found in a band stretching from Southern Europe to Central Asia, but since the seventeenth century have become widely naturalised and cultivated (see map). In their natural state they are adapted to steppes and mountainous areas with temperate climates. Flowering in the spring, they become dormant in the summer once the flowers and leaves die back, emerging above ground as a shoot from the underground bulb in early spring.

No idea why but I always have liked the look of Shrewsbury Sixth Forms rooftops, shapes, textures, colours - nice buildings too.
“Charlestown grew out of the small fishing village of West Polmear, which consisted of a few cottages and three cellars, in which the catch of pilchards were processed. The population amounted to nine fishermen and their families in 1790. Before the harbour was built, trading vessels landed and loaded on the beach. Charles Rashleigh, who moved to Duporth Manor, just outside the village, used plans prepared by John Smeaton to begin the construction of a harbour and dock in 1791. After building the outer pier, he excavated a natural inlet to form the main dock and a shipyard at its inner end that was demolished when the dock was extended. The first dock gates were completed in 1799. To maintain water levels in the dock, a leat was constructed, which brought water from the Luxulyan Valley, some 6.4 km away.”
A pair of 1500v DC class 76 electrics, 76031 and 76032, depart from Wombwell Main reception sidings having collected a rake of coal-laden MGRs from what was a then vibrant Yorkshire coalfield. The ultimate destination is Fiddlers Ferry Power Station on the banks of the River Mersey, but the class 76s will only taken them as far as the Manchester area where diesel traction will take over for the final leg.
Just behind me is the start of the 1 in 40 Worsborough Incline - so the two electric locomotives on the front will be supported by a further two at the rear banking the heavy train up the challenging grade.
Rather like the Yorkshire coalfield, nothing now remains of the railway system here which was closed in 1981. Cyclists and hikers can still enjoy a good deal of the old route however which now forms part of the Trans Pennine Trail - an official leisure pathway between the east and west coasts of England.

This is a multi exposure blended image taken in Grand Teton National Park last September. Three handheld shots were taken in quick succession using auto bracketing....one overexposed, one underexposed and one correctly exposed.
The high dynamic range approach allows the nuances of light and color to be captured more thoroughly and the final image more closely resembles the beauty of that magical morning in the Tetons....
(This was taken approximately 15 miles north of Jackson, Wyoming on Hwy 191. The creek you see in the foreground is a finger off of the Snake River)

Butterflies of 2023 # 26.
Many wildlife species show variation. This is the valezina form of Silver-washed Fritillary (Argynnis paphia). Records show that around 10% of female Silver-Washed Fritillaries in Dorset are the variant "valezina". Their upper wings are not orange, but a more washed-out colour. Field guides say that the underwings have a pinkish tinge. Perhaps the light has to be just right because that is something I have yet to see for myself. The underwings still retain the green wash and white streaks of the more common orange form of the insect.
trying to get myself back into shooting film. unfortunately everything on this roll was underexposed but still beautiful environments
Buds are forming now, this one will bloom early May. I love to watch the Rhododendron buds in Fall and Winter, they are so promising of color and seem example of vigor.
When I first came to Portland, Oregon it was end of December, early January and I was seeing so many Rhododendrons everywhere, I was amazed especially watching the buds, and they did not fail to enchant once they started blooming.
This one is red and beautiful, got some damage during hot Summers the last several years but coming back beautifully.
I have Four different ones, one has never done very well where tt is planted, and I have a really large pink one, and a semi large lavender one. Depending on the type, like Camellias they can be blooming all through the year.
So, I have photo number one and photo number two, I could not decide which one I like more, which one do you like more :)
please see large :)

MINI-MONDES EN VOIE D'ILLUMINATION
Partie 2 : Le monde de la mare
Jardin des Plantes Paris
Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle & China Light Festival
LA CONFECTION DES LANTERNES : Réalisée en Chine par une entreprise spécialisée, elle commence par l’assemblage de tiges de métal : les techniciens leur donnent la forme voulue et les soudent pour les assembler. On installe ensuite à l’intérieur une guirlande d’ampoules électriques. Puis le métal est recouvert de tissu (sorte de soie ou satin) que des ouvrières collent sur les structures métalliques, avec un pinceau, morceau par morceau. Les derniers détails des lanternes sont peints à la main, sur le tissu, soit au pistolet soit au pinceau pour les plus petits. Des techniciens chinois viennent en France pour s'occuper du montage et démontage. Quelques-uns restent sur place pour assurer la maintenance pendant toute la durée du Festival.

Excerpt from the plaque:
From Line to Form
Brian Donnelly began his artistic journey at the age of 12 with graffiti – a style of art that breaks convention. He began tagging the streets of his hometown, Jersey City, eventually branching out to Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. This was the formative period when he developed his artist persona KAWS and several of his signature motifs. In 1993 he enrolled in Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts, where he received technical training. This salon-style hang of works reveals his love of drawing and his dedication to refining his skill.
KAWS’s time as a graffiti artist was foundational to what would become the ethos of his current practice: claiming public spaces, communicating with broad audiences, and self-promotion through creating.
Tall trees form a light forest canopy at Pinery Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada.
Pinery Provincial Park was initially reforested with red and white pine trees giving the park its name. However, the area is not naturally a pine forest; the natural ecology is a very rare oak savanna. Only later was the true value of the natural ecology recognized, and the health of the oak savanna is now promoted.
