We visit Golden Gate Park often. It is a green belt in the middle of a densely populated metropolis, San Francisco. Yet this greenbelt has much to offer in the form of birds and waterfowl. At Lloyd Lake we found a hidden treasure of Hooded Mergansers. As with most days in SF, there was no sun. This Merganser was trying to eat some type of crawfish that was just too big for him to swallow. He tried over and over again to eat it but finally gave up. Turns out that “too much of a good thing” is really true.

I hope someone can help me with a maths question. It's for a friend of mine.
If a business has 7 billion customers and sells each one a product annually which brings in $10USD of profit. After five years how much profit will be accrued?
Many thanks

The canyon beyond this gate always holds my imagination. The temperatures have cooled down making life and the healing path more bearable. I hope everyone is enjoying the change of season!
An overcast sky casts a dull light over its surroundings, but the Cloud Gate sculpture glows no matter what.
Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge took a total of 1,604 days or a little over 4 years and 4 1/2 months. Work began on January 5, 1933, and the Bridge opened to vehicular traffic on May 28, 1937. It is the most photographed bridge in the world and it was named one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. The bridge is constantly being painted to maintain its vibrancy. Its International Orange color is made by Sherwin Williams and it was chosen because it blends well with the span's natural setting. The bridge carries about 112,000 vehicles per day according to the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District and in a single month, the bridge normally makes close to $1.9M in revenue.
In the pouring rain, note rain highlighted against dark areas of image. Gwanghwamun (Korean: 광화문; Hanja: 光化門) is the main and largest gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace, in Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gwanghwamun
(Gyeongbokgung Palace or Gyeongbok Palace, was the main royal palace of the Joseon dynasty. Built in 1395, it is the largest of the 'Five Grand Palaces' built by the Joseon dynasty.)

One of my last photos of the evening last night in the old industrial parts of Dublin. I was keen to photograph the old streets around the Guinness Brewery at St James' Gate and finally found this classic street. Had to wait until very late before it became dark enough but certainly worth it!
Gates I discovered off a dead-end road and enclosing an empty lot. Photoshop effects complete the image, of course.
A chain fence keeps the tourists from falling into the bay below the Golden Gate Bridge. Fort Point is in the distance.
Happy Fence Friday!
Gwanghwamun Gate is the main and largest gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace, Seoul, first constructed in 1395. It was constructed as the main gate to Gyeongbokgung Palace, the main and most important royal palace during the Joseon Dynasty.
During the 1592 Japanese invasion, it was destroyed by fire and left in ruins for over 250 years.
Concrete Gwanghwamun with the Japanese Governor General Building, which stood until 1996.
Gwanghwamun was reconstructed in 1867 along with the rest of Gyeongbokgung Palace by the order of regent Daewongun during the reign of Emperor Gojong. The gate stood until 1926, when the Japanese government had it deconstructed and moved it just to the southeast of the current location of the National Folk Museum of Korea to make way for the massive Japanese Governor General Building.
The Korean War completely destroyed the wooden structure of Gwanghwamun, and its stone base lay in complete disrepair and neglect. In 1968, during Park Chung-hee's administration, the stone base was again relocated in front of the Japanese Governor General Building. The destroyed wooden structure was rebuilt in concrete, while the sign on Gwanghwamun was written in hangul by Park himself. Gwanghwamun remained as a concrete gate until late 2006
A "fell" (from Old Norse "fjall") is a word used in north west England for a hill or moor. Evidence of Vikings settling here a millennium or so ago. Photographed on Shap Fell, Cumbria.
The fabulous, design of the gorgeous, ornate, fence/gate on Parliament Hill, downtown Ottawa, Canada. They don't make them like this anymore. Love, love, love the detail.
I live down there in the bluish area. This is just one of a number of locations where the dogs and I walk
