Tomorrow, the Olympic Winter Games 2022 in Beijing will be opened. There has been a lot of discussion about the meaningfulness of this event, being held in times of pandemic, in an autocratic country that tramples human rights underfoot, and in the presence of a threat of war between Russia and Ukraine.
Olympic ideals and values seem to apply to athletes only, the main purpose is about big money and state propaganda.
Is the Olympic idea starting to starting to dissolve - as the 5 rings in this image do... ?

Das Künstlerviertel 798 heißt so, weil die dort betriebenen Fabriken im sowjetischen Stil mit Nummern statt Namen benannt wurden. Heimische chinesische Künstler zog es damals auf das verwaiste Fabrikgelände, das sich in weiterer Folge zu einem idealen Ort für Kreativität entwickelte

Todos tienen sus propios sueños, a veces sus alas están rotas por la realidad, a veces abandonan sus ideales debido a un pequeño fracaso, solo aquellos que perseveran, que han crecido después bautismo de años. realmente pueden tener la suerte.
A shot from Coigach taken while fishing for Pollock. These beautiful clouds started forming and lit up the sky over Stac Pollaidh and Cul Mor. I also caught lots of fish, so a brilliant evening all around. The Ideal Height is a track by Biffy Clyro, and is fine.
Red Kite, a grab shot, in the late afternoon sunshine, just as we were leaving. Taken in Norfolk. Tricky side lighting was not ideal.
A southbound Pacific Surfliner rolls along the ocean near Del Mar. The house on the right is no doubt out of my budget, but I could still dream of watching Surfliners and BNSF freight passing through from an incredible vantage point.

In the last 9+ years of living in the area, I've been fortunate to get a handful of shots on this picturesque bridge over the Redwood River at North Redwood, MN. With infrequent and unpredictable operations on the line, you have to take what you can get. I'm glad I have has many pictures of them as I do, but many of them are in less than ideal conditions. Finally, everything lined up perfectly on this morning to get an eastbound on the bridge in calm, clear weather. Even better, the train had three locomotives, including the railroad's two former Kennecott Copper GP39-2s and the CAT powered RRVW 2053. A huge thank you to my friend Andrew for giving me a heads up that the train was coming from Delhi, or I would've missed it. I don't think I'll ever do much better than this again!

"Ideali amate voci
di coloro che sono morti o come i morti
sono per noi perduti.
A volte ci parlano in sogno
a volte esse vibrano dentro.
E con il suono, per un istante l'eco fa ritorno
della prima poesia di nostra vita –
come lontana nella notte una musica che dilegua".

First Light on Lassen from Upper Meadow: I end this series of Lassen Volcanic National Park photos, with the beginning of a new day. Kings Creek runs through Upper Meadow, making it an ideal location for beautiful morning pictures of Mount Lassen bathed in light from the morning sun. Upper Meadow is just waking up with a touch of fog. I hope you have enjoyed this series.

Diamond Firetails (Stagonopleura guttata), west of Guildford, central Victoria, Australia. While looking for raptors last weekend, I was really happy to find this pair of Diamond Firetails eating some grasses/seeds on the side of a small road bridge. Unfortunately, this image is an extreme crop taken in the afternoon through heat haze rising from the bitumen road, so the conditions were not ideal. However, I was very happy to see these birds which are listed as vulnerable, and capture eye contact from both birds in the one image. This is only the second time we have seen them in this area.
Hacia un dia con una luz opaca, ideal para este tipo de fotografias. En este caso opte por un encuadre bastante cerrado, centrando la vision en la cascada y potenciando la diagonal del recorrido del agua, anclando la imagen en las piedras de la derecha.
A pesar de que la luz era suave opte por hacer un bracketing de dos tomas y hacer un HDR para conservar el detalle en el agua y en las rocas.
La velocidad de obturación siempre es una eleccion dificil, para no pasarte en el efecto sedoso del agua. En esta ocasión las dos tomas estan por debajo del segundo.
En el revelado, para conseguir que los colores fuesen naturales (para mi, esto siempre es muy subjetivo), enfrie un poco el balance de blancos, desature bastante la foto y subi los verdes y los amarillos. El resultado me agrada bastante.
Was ist denn nun schön?
Heute Nachmittag war der Himmel blau, die Sonne schien. Ich stellte mir kurzerhand die Liege auf die Terrasse, Decke drüber, Näschen raus und kurz ein Nickerchen gemacht. Hach, war das schön! Bis sich der Himmel verdunkelte und von Westen ein fettes Wolkenband heranschob, aus dem es wenig später regenschneite. Das war gar nicht schön.
An dem Tag, als dieses Bild entstand, war eigentlich kein ideales Fotografierwetter. Der Himmel grau, irgendwie alles abgestumpft in den Farben und auch in dem Widerhall der Schritte, wenn sich der Schnee unterm Tritt verdichtet. Dieser kleine Ausflug hat ganz eigene Bilder hervorgebracht: sehr graphisch, gedämpft und ruhig. Wenn dann der wintergraue Himmel noch ein bisschen Farbe durch die verwendeten Fotofilter annimmt und sich alles in eine kommode Stimmung verwandelt, kommt mir nur ein Gedanke: "Meine Güte, war dieses trübe Wetter schön."
Es kommt, und dass ist, glaub' ich wirklich 'ne platte Wahrheit, immer alles auf den Blickwinkel an.

If you remember, last week Frīda, the Teddy Bear Girl, was going to London to find out is there any artist painting Teddy Bears...Today she calls her friends out in the garden to tell them what the results of research are...
Frīda: After spending 3 hours in Art galleries I came to conclusion
Matilda, the Mouse: Con ..con...what? Where did she come to?
Paddington (whispering) : That is where she ended at...
Matilda: I see, she came back to Wimbledon
Frīda: Shall I continue? I have to say that contemporary art is not up to standards. The Teddy Bear theme is not sufficiently reflected.
Matilda ( looking at Paddington): What did she say?
Paddington (whispering): She did not see enough Teddy Bears on the walls of art galleries.
Frīda: But finally I managed to find at least three art works. Surprisingly, Teddy Bear art you would not find in Tate Britain or Saatchi gallery but it is concentrated in Brick Lane.
Here, on tablet, you see the one of most striking examples...I would say, it speaks about Our Royal connections!
Applause after Frīdas speech 👏 👏 👏
One of Twins to his brother: I think we should go to London to find out how many Leopards we can find on those walls...
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday!

P.S. The art work that Frīda found in Brick Lane was created by artist Rad@Raddingtonfalls
About artist Rad:
RAD creates paintings, collages, murals, printmaking, digital and mixed-media pieces which aims to stay true to the spirit and vitality of one’s youth. It’s an ethos that is exemplified in his character Forever Young, a walking LEGO minifigure wearing a blue suit and briefcase enjoying a dripping pink popsicle. He eventually developed the idea of fictitious town of Raddington Falls where his cast of LEGO minifigures would live and carry out an ever changing narrative. The town seems ideal on the outside, yet it has a darkness underneath the surface.
Hi Guys,
I'm back from an incredible vacation to the Canadian Rockies and Glacier National Park, Montana. We also visited the Pacific Northwest again on this trip. I had a great time and have many, many new images to share. Conditions were ideal for shooting, although a large forest fire was sparked by lightning just north of the Icefields Parkway while at the parks in Canada. Skies became hazy during the latter part of the visit, and as I understand there were road closures during parts of the day on the Icefields Parkway shortly after we left.
I hope everyone s doing well and I'll catch up with all of my contacts soon! This is a view of early morning reflections on Waterfowl Lake which is located on the Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park, Alberta. As always, thanks for the visits, comments and faves! :-)
