I hesitated to post this because the beautiful male Hooded Merganser doesn't really look his stunning best. However, it illustrates the point, and brings new meaning for me to the phrase "break a leg". I guess the hoodies don't like the crayfish pincers especially, and through a vigorous shake or two they can break them off. Might even decide to break all the legs off. Gives the photographer a chance to capture the action of downing the catch, especially if the bird gets pursued by a lazy compatriot.
For 121 Pictures in 2021 #47 "Illustrate a book title" these are serrano and Thai chiles, both red and green to go on the cover of "The Devil's Dinner, a gastronomic and cultural history of chili peppers" by Stuart Walton. I should note that his use of "chili peppers is incorrect, anything referring to the plant or the pod itself should be spelled chile. The term chili should be only used to refer to a stew making use of chiles. This was borne out by extensive research on the internet, where, as we all know, everything is correct.
Along the Colorado meander in Page, AZ, the Horseshoe Bend. If you even have a slight vertigo, like me, please stay a bit away from the edge, there is a sudden fall of several hundred feet. It was a bit windy that only added to my fear of getting blown away towards the edge. I used my tripod to get a bit more balance and to relax my fear shaken knees. But people around me were like monkeys or may be they have some hidden wings that come out if they slip as they were hanging out. All this for a cool selfie! Very irresponsible to your own life. I wonder what the tombstone might read -lost balance and fell off a cliff! Not a good way to go!
Coming back to this marvel, its a must see place if you are in or around Page. Just a small 0.75mile trail (a bit of a hike while coming back). Absolutely marvelous and will take blow your mind when you will first see it up close. While walking down towards it you will not have the faintest of an idea of what it would really looking like until you are at the edge! Its like a Taj Mahal hidden below waiting for you to find!
Hope you will like it! And be careful when you visit!
With 16,000 tons in 120 cars on the drawbar these three EMD's are screamin' their guts out in notch 8 with a cloud of sand dust following their progress as they assault the hill up to the diamond at Plymouth, OH. 8/10/2025
Our ”We’re Here!” theme today is Photographic terms illustrated. I enjoy shooting into the sun to see what kind of crazy lens flare and starburst effects I can get.
You have to have observed Hoodies to get this poem. I could post a bunch of images to illustrate but I don't like repeating species on my photostream. The key is in the line "a shape-shifting ghost."
I got to illustrate a song Difleger - I saw The Devil from Deploy Your Senses

The photo illustrates the importance of a good boat tender, in this case a hard-shelled rowing dinghy, to a cruising and live-aboard sailing vessel. In this photo, our sailing vessel, Lai Sien, is anchored out in one of the many remote and secluded coves and bays along the shores of the Sea of Cortez, a magnificent sea located between the Baja Penisula and the west coast of mainland Mexico. The dinghy is the indispensable means for transporting people, food, fresh water and supplies to and from the ship.
These are the days by the sparkling river...

"Empire of the sun" by Steven Spielberg" (1987)
Frogs!...quite a few 'guilty pleasures'' going on here! My obsession with Mother Nature and all her wonders....means the ironing gets left, oops! A friend has an obsession with the colour green and anything frog related...plus her husbands obsession is with technology. He used his 3D printer to print these colourful little frogs! But hey, you only live once so why feel guilty! :))

What Are Little Boys Made of?
Frogs and snails,
And puppy-dogs' tails;
That's what little boys are made of.
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice,
And all that's nice;
That's what little girls are made of.
This illustrates the power of digital cameras - the stars were barely visible and I had to guess the position of the pole star. I had to pause the collection of images so there is a gap in the trails but here for what it's worth is a star trail pic over the raquets court at Copped Hall, Essex, UK taken during our night photography evening this week.
One of my favourite books as a child was The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. My mother had a very old copy from her own childhood and I was enthralled by the Victorian era story of the orphaned Mary who came from India where her parents had died to live with a cold uncle in his bleak Yorkshire manse.
Mary gradually uncovers the story of the house’s ‘Secret Garden’. This image is about the discovery of the key to the garden:
Mary tentatively asks (gardener) Ben Weatherstaff if anything is still living in the secret garden, and he replies that only the robin knows, as no one else has been inside in ten years. Mary wanders off, following the wall of the garden without a door. The robin follows her and leads her to a mound of freshly turned earth, which, when Mary examines it closely, contains a tarnished key that has long been buried. It may, Mary thinks, be the key to the secret garden.

The train had worked in to West Burton earlier in the morning with a full load of limestone.
Illustrating the very dry nature of the aggregate and the warm temperatures, significant dust clouds were created upon discharging every grab full of aggregate from the penultimate loaded box wagon at Chichester.

Illustrating the true joint operations aspect of the UP's line thru the Tehachapi Mountains, a west bound BNSF manifest train overtakes what would appear to be a hotter UP stack train at CP Sandcut on the east side of Bakersfield CA.
This extraordinary image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of the galaxy cluster Abell 2813 (also known as ACO 2813) has an almost delicate beauty, which also illustrates the remarkable physics at work within it. The image spectacularly demonstrates the concept of gravitational lensing.
Among the tiny dots, spirals, and ovals that are the galaxies belonging to the cluster, there are several distinct crescent shapes. These curved arcs of light aren’t curved galaxies. They are strong examples of a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing.
Gravitational lensing occurs when an object’s mass causes light to bend. The curved crescents and “S” shapes are light from galaxies that lie beyond Abell 2813. The galaxy cluster has so much mass that it acts as a gravitational lens, bending light from more distant galaxies around it. These distortions can appear as many different shapes, such as long lines or arcs.
This visual evidence, that mass causes light to bend, is famously used as proof of Einstein’s theory of general relativity.
