Three greylag geese in tight formation above the Ismaninger Speichersee, east basin.

 

The Ismaninger Speichersee is a reservoir in the north of Munich, built in 1929 to regulate the water flow for the run-of-the-river power plants along the Isar Canal.

 

The reservoir and the adjacent fish ponds are a nature reserve (Europareservat) and an Important Bird Area (IBA).

Alpes de Haute Provence 2021

Back to my trip up to St Cyrus at the weekend for this shot. The whole scene was every bit as tranquial as this image suggests.

 

You can see the rock formation and cottage in my earlier post on the left hand side of this.

Downstream from RMNP, near Lyons, CO. The formations remind me of Franconia Notch State Park, in NH.

One of the most amazing landscapes I've ever seen. Delicated salt formations in a lagoon at atacama desert. Chile.

Sandhill Cranes seen in Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area near McNeal, Arizona. It is estimated that 20,000 Sandhill Cranes make this area their home each winter.

The Gamserrugg (right) is a stunning geological formation in the Toggenburg. Captured from the Chäserrugg we can also see the Alpstein mountain range in the background.

 

The simplest way to access this area is to go to Unterwasser which is located in the valley below. From there you need to take first a funicular that will take you to Iltios. The second leg is through a cable car that will take you to the summit at Chäserrugg.

Once you are at the top the view is breathaking on all sides. This photo is looking north.

Thank you for watching,

kind regards,

Christophe.

Beautiful slot canyon formations in Cardiac Canyon, including this one that resembles a howling dog or beast.

On this pretty evening at Lake Mono, extended the shutter time with the 6 Stop ND to smooth out the reflection with the slight breeze churning at the lake's surface.

A nice little spot with some small falls along the Girakool Loop Trail last week.

 

Did you know the Klingon word for waterfalls is bIQtIq.

 

You're welcome. Just don't ask me to pronounce it.

 

No filter was used here for the LE, it was achieved with the Olympus inbuilt ND function.

 

Have a great week & thanks for the visit & any comments. They are always appreciated!

Yellowstone National Park is full of nature's mysteries around every turn. It would take many trips to take it all in. Years of geothermal activity at Mammoth Hot Springs created this beautiful display of mineral deposit capped travertine rock formations. Recent minor earthquake activity caused a shift in the spring shaft, which caused steaming, hot water to flow over these stone terraces.

Great White Pelicans (Pelecanus onocrotalus)

It is probably a courtship ritual of common drone fly

"Christmas gives us an opportunity to pause and reflect on the important things around us amongst nature."

On the way to Höfn, we leave behind the famous Jökulsarlon glacier lagoon, which is hardly spectacular this time. Other interesting landscapes await us, however.

Red Rock Canyon State Park

State Highway 14

Kern County

California

 

This beautiful park features scenic cliffs, buttes and spectacular rock formations in a high desert setting. The canyon was formed 3 million years ago. It is located where the southernmost tip of the Sierra Nevada converges with the El Paso Mountains. There are three tributary canyons. It is a geological treasure trove.

 

The canyons were once home to the Kawaiisu Indians, who left petroglyphs in the nearby El Paso mountains, and was on a Native American trade route for thousands of years. The park now protects significant paleontology sites and the remains of 1890s-era mining operations.

 

Providing several unique, dramatic areas, and close to Los Angeles, Hollywood has frequently filmed at Red Rock Canyon, including motion pictures, television series, advertisements, and music videos.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

These weathered rock formations are exposed at low tide.

While on a beach in northern Ecuador, I looked up to see a flock of gulls flying in a V formation.

Hey, Gus. Get your ass back in formation! We're about to land.

 

Alviso, California. Beautiful, calm day. The only ripples in the water caused by the birds landing, taking off or walking around.
