No, it is not a mammoth ... This ice cube with the delicious seeds of an anise would have done well in an aniseed. The liquor has many names: Raki, Ouzo, Absinthe, Pastis, Pernod, Sambuca, Arak, Anis Escarchado – sure you know a variety of them. But I preferred to use it for Macro Mondays Redux ... The main theme is "Found in the Kitchen", but it also works for "Seeds" and "High Key" and if you look closely, you can even discover a small heart ;-)

Nein, es ist kein Mammut ... Dieser Eiswürfel mit der leckeren Saat einer Anis hätte sich sehr gut in einem Anisschnaps gemacht. Die Spirituose hat viele Namen: Raki, Ouzo, Absinth, Pastis, Pernod, Sambuca, Arak, Anis Escarchado – sicher kennt ihr eine Sorte davon. Aber ich habe ihn jetzt lieber für Macro Mondays Redux verwendet ... Das Hauptthema ist "Found in the Kitchen", es passt aber auch für "Seeds" und "High Key" und wenn Ihr genau hinseht, könnt Ihr sogar ein kleines Herz entdecken ;-)

Nikon Micro-Nikkor-P / 1:3.5 / 55 mm
A "famous" spot in both Sarpsborg and Rakkestad. About 400 meters north was a hunting and collecting party visiting the area for 8-9.000 years ago. The ice had melted and the terrain was under the sea. This area was an island
... wenn sie meine Flachland-Winterbilder sieht ;-)))
So zeigt sich der Winter oft genug auf unserer höchsten Mittelgebirgserhebung, dem Brocken.
Mein letzter Besuch dort war vor nunmehr drei Jahren...

Northrup Falls - Colditz Cove Class II Natural-Scientific State Natural Area
The last night of the longest stretch of weather below freezing that I have experienced in my 30 years living in Tennessee with temperatures around 13F degrees the night of this shoot.
370 photos of 25 seconds each were taken for this two panel stitched image. The bottom section consisted of 170 photos for the light painting and 200 photos for the light painting above the falls and star trails.
Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation states that "Northrup Falls is one of Tennessee’s most stunning waterfalls plunging more than 60 feet over a protruding rock ledge into a scenic, narrow, gorge along Big Branch Creek. The waterfall is named for the family who settled here and operated a mill above the falls in the . 1800s. These high cliffs and “rock houses” (cave-like overhangs) at the falls and along the creek gorge were once used by cliff-dwelling Woodland Indians over 3,000 years ago. They primarily used these shelters during hunting season.
The dry ridges above the falls support a mixed oak-hickory forest dominated by white oak with Virginia pine scattered throughout. On the more xeric southwest bluff, oaks, hemlock, Virginia and short leaf pine are common with a shrublayer of mountain laurel underneath. Below the falls, following Big Branch Creek, large hemlocks and white pines, believed to be over 200 years old prominently grow. Beneath these trees, thickets of rhododendron form along the creek, providing important habitat for riparian plant and animal species."

Malham Cove, Describing the cove in 1779, Thomas West said, "This beautiful rock is like the age-tinted wall of a prodigious castle; the stone is very white, and from the ledges hang various shrubs and vegetables, which with the tints given it by the bog water. & c. gives it a variety that I never before saw so pleasing in a plain rock."[1]

A firm visitor favourite at the Hull and East Riding Museum is Mortimer the life sized reconstruction of a Woolly Mammoth. The ancient beast, an icon of the last Ice Age,
A fjord is a long, narrow bay with steep sides, created in a glacially carved valley that is filled by rising sea water levels. The seeds of a fjord are laid when a glacier cuts a U-shaped valley through abrasion of the surrounding bedrock by the sediment it carries. Many such valleys were formed during recent ice age when the sea was at a much lower level than it is today. At the end of the ice age, the climate warmed up again and glaciers retreated.
Photo taken at the Aurlandsfjord. Paragliding is a popular sport in Norway. In ridge soaring, pilots fly along the length of a ridge feature in the landscape, relying on the lift provided by the air which is forced up as it passes over the ridge. A tandem flight with professional is the perfect way to enjoy your first flying experience. We just arrived too late to go on a tandem flight. Remember also that bookings are essential.
Een fjord is een bepaald type inham in een bergachtige kust, gekenmerkt door steile wanden die door gletsjerwerking zijn uitgesleten. Kenmerkend bij fjorden zijn de bergachtige kusten met diepe insnijdingen en steile hellingen, die zich ook onder water voortzetten. De fjorden zijn vaak in U-vormige dalen, ontstaan door de uitschuring van landijs tijdens de ijstijden.
Paragliding wordt redelijk veel beoefend in Noorwegen. Het z.g. soaring is langs een berghelling vliegen en door de hellingstijgwind op dezelfde hoogte blijven, of zelfs hoger komen. Wij kwamen net te laat voor een tandem vlucht met professional. Vergeet ook niet van te voren te boeken!
