we can't agree on which processing of this photo is better.

This is programmer, Randall Reetz. Years ago, he helped me set up my first website.
It was in the day of "dialup". If a picture was larger than 25 K, it slowed the website down. oh, geez.
The website was and is called "California Earth Lodge":
Problems developed with the site, so I am transforming it into a Flickr Album. A little of it is in at the moment.

The old website is showing only page one. Maybe George can reinstate it from the CD that Randall gave me, originally.
The truth is that I like the scrolling website pages- an option which is very limited in Flickr.

- there was dialup, then there was DSL, and it's gone up from there.
- at present, the City of Santa Cruz and Cruzio are working to get fiber for everyone.
Cruzio exaggerated their ambition. It is May of 2021 and they still haven’t managed to do fiber.
They asked people with tall buildings to help. That was years ago.
Note a little feeling in the above. George finally talked me out of my loyalty to Cruzio and i got Comcast and all’s well, now.
I can get closer to scrolling in Flickr by adding photos to the Comments section, but all of those images have to go up in the Photostream. At first, i resisted having to do that. Now i don’t.

While on route to the Niagara Falls we stopped at a picnic spot in the Niagara Gorge. I quickly spotted several birds of prey, obviously common to the area, but I've no idea what they are! My bird books only cover Europe! Can any one help please! The were buzzard sized, but more streamlined, especially the narrow tail and appeared quite dark in colour whether viewed from above or below. The bill appeared slightly hooked pointing downwards in flight. The image is a collage of three photos.
Alberobello (Italian: [ˌalberoˈbɛllo]; literally "beautiful tree"; Barese: Ajarubbédde) is a small town and comune of the Metropolitan City of Bari, Apulia, southern Italy. It has 10,735 inhabitants and is famous for its unique trullo buildings. The trulli of Alberobello have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1996.
A first occupation of the area started only in the early sixteenth century on the impulse of the Count of Conversano Andrea Matteo III Acquaviva d'Aragona. He allowed about forty peasant families from Noci to settle here and cultivate the land, with the obligation to give him the tenth of the crops.
In 1635 his successor, Count Giangirolamo II (1600-1665) erected an inn with a tavern and an oratory and started the urbanization of the forest with the construction of few small houses. The expansion of the urban area was helped by the abundance of limestone, karst and calcareous sedimentary, and by the permission of the count to build houses only with dry walls without the use of mortar, which would become the peculiar trulli. This obligation to have houses built with dry stones was an expedient of the count to avoid paying taxes to the Spanish viceroy of the Kingdom of Naples. The centre of Alberobello was built on the streets of the ancient river Cana, where is now the largo Giuseppe Martelotta.
Alberobello remained a fief of the Acquaviva of Aragon until May 27, 1797, when King Ferdinand IV of Bourbon elevated the small village to the royal city, freeing it from the feudal servitude of the counts. On 22 June 1797, the first mayor Francesco Giuseppe Lippolis was elected.
Alberobello is the only inhabited center with an entire district of trulli. It is therefore considered the cultural capital of the trulli of the Valle d'Itria.
The history of the trulli is linked to the Prammatica De Baronibus, an edict of the 15th-century Kingdom of Naples that subjected every new settlement to a tribute. In 1481 the Counts of Conversano D'Acquaviva D'Aragona from 1481, owners of the territory of Alberobello, then imposed on the residents that they built their dwellings dry, without using mortars, so that they could be configured as precarious buildings and easily demolished.
Having to use only stones, the peasants found in the round form with self-supporting domed roof the simplest configuration. The roofs were embellished with decorative pinnacles representing the signature of the architect (master trullaro)
