This crystal-clear stream flows through the historic Roaring Springs Ranch located in the high desert of southeastern Oregon. Roaring Springs Ranch is a contiguous block of over a million acres of land. It includes 260,000 acres of deeded property plus grazing rights on an additional 800,000 acres of public land. Elevation of the valley in this photograph is approximately 4,500 feet.

Circa 1972. In my German language class. I caught my friend in a split-second in which she had an odd expression on her face.

This image depicts AT&SF 3415, a Class 3400 Pacific Locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1919. Originally a coal-burner, built for fast passenger service, this locomotive was converted to burn oil in its later years and was eventually relegated to freight service. It was retired in 1954 and literally spent 40 years in a public park in Abilene, before being restored for service on the Abilene & Smoky Valley tourist operation where she runs now. In service since 2009, the locomotive will be due for an FRA 1,472 Service Day Inspection at the end of 2023. This image was captured on a Dak Dillon Photography Charter in September of 2023, featuring the 3415 with her freshly-painted excursion consist. The train is pictured at the Jeep Road crossing, just over 2 miles east of Abilene on former Rock Island trackage.
Nothing but trees as far as the eye can reach... In the middle of nowhere we discovered an abandoned hunter’s house. On a cold spring morning we set off to find out what’s inside this old building hidden deep in the woods. We found a fully furnished home that was once owned by a God-fearing man. And all his personal remains were still there! Join us on a travel back in time: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mjZyFfjpT0

I hesitated to process this because of the difficulty for me. The extreme contrast did not initially leave me optimistic.
A view north from Win Hill. This shot takes in the eastern end of Kinder Scout on the left to Derwent Edge and Ladybower Tor on the right. Parts of the three arms of Ladybower Reservoir are just visible too.

The rape crop's flowering early this year.
"I am glad your all right Faora but who did we lose?" Zod asked as Faora Quex-Ul and Mala landed, the two lower soldiers kneeling in Zod's presence.
"Dev-Em and Vran-Dor my General" Faora reported.
"Then the humans will pay for what they have done to us" Zod said clenching his fist.
"There are thousands of people living in these buildings, on land that now belongs to you General" Faora smiled waving to the buildings that lay before them.
"Then let us show them how we retaliate" Zod said rising into the air.

The Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve is a protected area consisting of wetlands and surrounding monsoon and dry forests approximately 70 km (43 mi) east of Darwin in the Northern Territory of Australia (a comfortable 1 hour drive from Darwin CBD or suburbs).
The Reserve lies within the Adelaide and Mary River Floodplains, which is an Important Bird Area.
Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve was created after the demise of an unsuccessful rice farming project which operated in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The dam was originally created as dry season water storage facility for the rice crop.
The reserve attracts a wide range of local and migratory water birds and other wildlife including one of the largest populations of snakes within Australia (including the Water Python and Death Adder), and includes a several raised observation platforms.
Saltwater Crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) and Freshwater Crocodiles (Crocodylus johnstoni) can be seen at Fogg Dam all year around.
Fogg Dam is open 24 hrs per day all days of the year. The only limitation is that during very heavy monsoon rain periods, water may overflow the dam wall (which serves as a road through the reserve) and limit traffic to high-clearance vehicles.
In some years, the dam wall may be temporarily damaged by monsoon rain overflows and be impassable for a short section.
The open nature of the reserve along the dam wall makes it an excellent site for birds in flight (BIF) photography.
The highest bird activity for BIF photography occurs later in the wet and early dry season (say March to June) when thousands of waterbirds and other water-attracted species are moving around the reserve.
Passerine species can be best photographed from treed areas, and the Woodlands and Monsoon Forest tracks.
