His transparent wings allow us to see the intense yellow color of the hemolymph, which he pumps into the veins of the wings to inflate them. After the wings have hardened, they appear white.
From Austria.
In this building you can see three levels of cells. The wide hallway is where they would show movies. Some medical services and haircuts. Phone booths -3 only.
Below, where the stairs are, contain the dungeons where serious criminals were kept. You can see they had limited light and seclusion. One man was sent there for 30 years before he died - a mass murderer.
The two images look in opposite direction down the same hall and I took them a couple hours apart.
It is suggested as a prisoner better not to snore at night!
Peace and freedom and justice and the law were broken by the police during the demonstration in Berlin;
the government, which is responsible for it,
now shows its true totalitarian face shamelessly open.
Now everything that was feared for months is coming true -
wake up, people all over the world,
and try to stop this development all together!

A wonderful day, took lots of shots, so not going to waste any! People in the valley were walking around in the foggy gloom, with rather glum faces, people up here were jogging, bike riding, dog walking etc, all smiles and greetings 'isn't it a lovely day' ......just shows how the conditions affect us. Minus 4C today.
I've been trying to capture this in the right light for a couple of years now and finally this evening I think I might have captured what i wanted. This Stone Circle is almost hidden away on the moors and I wanted to capture it as the sun was setting
The shackle of a rusty padlock.
Please enlarge to see the rusty detail.
Reverse mounted my lens to give a greater macro ability.
Bringing the empties back from Hardendale, the view from this angle marred slightly by the vegetation growing on the viaduct, and no train coming along the other leg of the viaduct for some time.
je me retrouvé au sol, une bombe lacrymogène vidée en pleine face, mon Nikon arraché de mes mains et jeté à 3m de moi. C'est la première fois que je suis directement attaqué de la sorte. Les manifestants remontaient la rue, et l'ordre de nous taper dessus a été aussi brutal que inattendu... Cela fait quelques années que je couvre à ma manière la colère de la rue, mais aujourd'hui l'état a décidé de durcir la repression, qu'elle quelle soit. J'en ai été quite pour un pare soleil explosé, un D810 éraflé, et des centilitres de collyres dans le yeux ;-)
Bon dimanche à vous
I found myself on the ground, a tear bomb emptied in the face, my Nikon torn from my hands and thrown 3m from me. This is the first time I am directly attacked in this way. The protesters were walking up the street, and the order to hit us was as brutal as it was unexpected ... It's been a few years since I covered the anger of the street in my own way, but today the state has decided to harden repression, whatever it is. I was quite exhausted for an exploded sun visor, a scuffed D810, and a hundredilitres of eye drops in the eyes ;-)
Have a nice Sunday
... but the other horses stayed out of the photo.

A Battle-Hardened Tiger is hindered from advancing because of the excessive rains in Russia.
No Tigers were harmed in the process of this photo!
+ I found some time this weekend to shoot a few quick pictures, so I used the rain to my advantage today!

For the first time I tried doing a livestream as I was set up to take this shot. I know I am NOT a videographer! (I'm barely a photographer!) Anyway I did at least manage to get this.
Beckfoot Bridge (also known as the Packhorse Bridge) was historically a significant crossing point over Harden Beck in Bingley, West Yorkshire, England. It was constructed alongside the historical ford across the beck. It is wide enough for pedestrians or single file horses. In 1974 it was given grade II listed building status.[1]
A large herd of wild Red Deer stags heads to lower ground in the evening to feed under the cover of impending darkness. Their antlers are still growing, protected by a layer of velvet. As the soft tissue hardens, they will rub the velvet off, ready for the autumn rut.
At Branscombe in east Devon the 400 feet-tall cliffs on this part of the Jurassic Coast are composed of chalk dating from the Cretaceous period, and the much older red Devon sandstone, which lies underneath this, will only be seen in the dramatic cliffs further to the west. Within the undercliff area on the left of the picture is an old "adit", or horizontal entrance, to the underground stone quarries at Beer which date back to Roman times. Limestone from here has been used in several cathedrals and numerous churches. The stone is initially quite soft to cut but hardens substantially when exposed to the air.
