A mystery arrival in the garden this year, and in two different locations and colour forms. No idea how they managed to get there either. Ordinarily, birds might be considered the normal culprit but, according to what I've read, birds don't particularly care for them. The name stems from the rather unpleasant aroma when the leaves are bruised or crushed.

This was part of a much larger berg at Jokulslaron in Iceland, I lay down on my stomach and shot it with a 70-200mm lens.

 

Just beautiful

Está formada por el Pazo de Fefiñans, el arco-puente, la atalaya Torre del Homenaje y por la Iglesia de San Benito, es un de los conjuntos arquitectónicos más bellos y admirados de Galicia, data del siglo XVI. Está rodeada de edificios históricos y monumentales.

Antiguamente era conocida como la plaza del mercado, pues era donde se celebraba semanalmente,

Esta plaza se encuentra en Cambados´, Galicia.

  

This is an older image form Caldwell Idaho, but seemed fitting to post. The real trick here is getting the image without the throngs of people that were there too. The dragon breathes fire, but I did not get the right kind of exposure to be able to use that image. Neat to see though.

Mitt bidrag till Fotosöndag 2020-08-23 på temat form. Ännu en "klassisk Magnus". Inget planerat under veckan blev en snabbt genomförd idé på lördagen när den dök upp i huvudet. Skönt att alltid ha en kamera i fickan nu för tiden.

Greetings form Singapore!!

Have been having a fabulous time eating, shopping, and wandering thru some of the fabulous park-lands & cultural areas. . . this was taking last night whilst trying to keep fit along the trails of West coast park - lots of heat & humidity but the sunset was spectacular!!

The parkland runs parallel to the dockland area - massive structures, massive ships, and then this fabulous green-space with magnificent trees and ferns by the hundreds perched in every branch nook and cranny!!

Currently watching a massive rains storm reduce visibility out side my friends condo apartment, drenching the city - no walking round out there today I fear. . .;((((

I set off form the great ocean road 2 days ago with the main goal of getting a shot of this iconic pier over the next 7 days or so before I duck back to Sydney for a few days.

 

From about lunch time today I had my eye on the forming clouds just hoping they would hang around until sunset. They didn't, they rarely do. However this set rolled over the horizon and put on a real welcome to SA show.

 

Uploading late as it took me ages to align the pano, I hadn't though to re-adjust the pivot point on my pano head for the new lens. So I had to manually align then use auto blend cs5, got there in the end.

The Himalayas, or Himalaya, form a mountain range in Asia separating the plains of the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau.

 

The Himalayan range has many of the Earth's highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest. The Himalayas include over fifty mountains exceeding 7,200 metres (23,600 ft) in elevation, including ten of the fourteen 8000m peaks. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia – Aconcagua, in the Andes – is 6,961 metres (22,838 ft) tall.

 

The Himalayan range is bordered on the northwest by the Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges, on the north by the Tibetan Plateau, and on the south by the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The Himalayas are distinct from the other great ranges of central Asia, although sometimes the term Himalaya is loosely used to include the Karakoram and some of the other ranges. The Himalayas – inhabited by 52.7 million people – are spread across five countries: India, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Pakistan, with the first three countries having sovereignty over most of the range. Some of the world's major rivers, the Indus, the Ganges, and the Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, rise in the Himalayas, and their combined drainage basin is home to roughly 600 million people. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of the Indian subcontinent; many Himalayan peaks are sacred in Hinduism and Buddhism.

 

Lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan mountain range runs, west-northwest to east-southeast, in an arc 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) long.

Another shot form last month's trip with Steve.

I had the idea that the sun setting behind the Cuillin Hills taken from the Bealach na Bà on the Applecross peninsula would be a good way to end our day out in the west. Unfortunately the bank of cloud over Skye stopped that happening but I still fired off a few shots as the sun slipped out of view.

A lovely little farmhouse nestled in the idyllic hills of the Palouse.

_IMG0085

Suffering, in all it's varied forms, is what exactly?

A compounding of fractured soul, so matter-of-factly,

She said that He Himself said,

That surgery is an art gallery of faith instead

Masterpieces where health invariably decreases

Swan songs of broken hearts where love ceases

To enliven home truth's of carefree surrealism

One empty soul does not make another idealism,

Minimal is the grey day that paves the way for darkness

Looming on the horizon of unseen weathering blackness

A colossus of sky with the upper land

Nature the only card, saviour, and prophet to hand

 

Fear may only be a feeling, but the feeling is beyond fear itself

As they say, depression is expectant as we each try to find oneself

In the mire of news, be it the betrayal of the health of our citizens

Or just the assassination of natural resources wealth, that bloody well glistens

In the headlights and highlights of our obit we now live in memory alone

"A Song for Departure" plays upon the mind that cannot find adequate words to bemoan

The lack of attention paid to the well-being of Mother Nature, ageism spammed!

We are seeking the revolution for the revolving Earth whose door's are jammed

By the annual quagmire of festive exposure by all means time is spent!

Here by the grace of God, we breathe in life, in a place, in grace Heaven sent

 

It's tempting to stop reading, as it is to cease listening, turning a blind eye as well, why not?

But dare I say, it's nigh on impossible for very long to do the whole damned lot!

Mother Nature, She is suffering can't you see upon this obdurate land

We tune-in to be deceived, ghost hunters and faithful followers of a new kind of religious brand

Detect only what the illusion alludes to in the lost art of heart and soul

In part, life is already obfuscated with it's own toxins, we're the decade on parole

1988, 1998, 2008, I remember well, the future that is coming too soon

Here before tomorrow ever knows what to do with itself, we must find the answers to be in tune

Petty arguments wage wars within the minds of boys whose toys have been confiscated by ignorance

A belief of faith cannot be true if it sees red at every turn, nor can it bring hope for the children in whom we bestow what kind of continuance?

Benevolence is awaited with a youthful eagerness that has grown old waiting on the wings of fighters

Knives replace fists that substitute backs for tables in the cities full of such blighters

Intervention risks life and death for the removal of compassion brings the hooded underworld

That has now come up to grab society by the ruddy throat twirled

A society indeed, un-policed and unappeased the x-factor of fearless nerves

Can no longer meet with the supply, that which steals warns of what it serves

 

We're a breed apart though we never used to be and never should be

Walking tall when we should be down on our damned knees begging for forgiveness until we all finally agree

So the trepidant beggars of belief peaceably fly in the face of popular opinion,

For the standards of today will invariably fail the tests of time and ever-changing dominion

If you feel the force of scientific tribulation, will it numb the senses of tomorrow

Can the government's diet, passed fit for us all, sustain us through political sorrow?

If a smile should pass your face someday, cherish it's presence upon the lifestyle that forgot how to use it

Wear yourself well, but for the love of life we must address what does reciprocally befit.

Delle forme particolari di aggressività vanno considerate pure l’impertinenza e l’ironia. L’ostilità si maschera con il sarcasmo; si fa intendere di non attribuire il giusto peso alle parole o si invita ad afferrare il contrario di quanto si è proferito. Il vero messaggio si nasconde sotto il tono di voce e dietro l’umorismo.

Structure in the dunes.

 

Art by Mundooo, on NE Fremont St.

Spoleto, Umbria, Italy

"Forming and breaking in the sky,

I fancy all shapes are there;

Temple, mountain, monument, spire;

Ships rigged out with sails of fire,

And blown by the evening air."

 

- J.K. Hoyt
