Sandhill Cranes. The light was too low at this time in the morning, but I couldn't resist trying to shoot the sandhill cranes against the backdrop of the pink sky.
Taken during a dreary yet misty day in Hillock Wood, in this part of the wood, mono seems to capture the mood perfectly.

In cima al dosso sulla sinistra le rovine del fortino militare costruito durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale, nel 1917. Oggi è da considerarsi come l'unico fortino militare ancora in piedi nel crinale orobico facente riferimento alla linea Cadorna, che intendeva presidiare le vie di penetrazione verso la pianura lombarda. In questo caso l'edificio serviva a proteggere il passo da attacchi provenienti dalla Val Gerola.
La triste inutilità della guerra sembra sottolineata dalle condizioni meteo, il cammino da Premana è stato lungo per salire quassù ma ne è valsa la pena per soffermarsi a riflettere su queste rovine e sulla vera rovina del mondo.
It was a very windy day to try my hand at macro photography.
The winds were blowing at a steady 15-20 mph with gusts at 30 mph. Every time I thought I had the flower in focus. it would move 6 inches in various directions. Sometimes it would move out of the viewfinder, and each time I'd start over.
After an hour I was able to capture it in focus…thankfully.
Persicaria lapathifolia (Pale persicaria, ‘Oo-inutade’ in Japanese) is an annual flowering plant in the family Polygonaceae (knotweed). This plant is distributed worldwide and considered to be a prehistoric naturalized plant in Japan.
I'm not a bit fan of high ISO in my pictures, but there was this beautiful sunset and there were a lot of little egrets just circling around.
I was very torn between staying with a wide lens, ND filter and everything set up for a wide sunset and switching around for a tele and completely changing almost all the settings to get some shots of the birds around.
Also surprising is that all of these birds were in a very central area - Puente de Miraflores in Córdoba, Andalusia. A very surprising and awesome location.
...schaut man traditionellerweise eher nicht am sogenannten "Vatertag" - oder "Herrentag"... höchstens, um festzustellen, ob das Wetter hält ;-)
Der aus dem "Tag der Erhöhung des Herrn" hervorgegangene Ehrentag aller trinkfesten Männer erinnert eigentlich an die Rückkehr Jesu Christi als Sohn Gottes zu seinem Vater im Himmel.
In der Groninger Martinikerk ist der Himmelblick bei einer Besichtigung inclusive...

You want commitment
Take a look into these eyes
They burn with fire
Until the end of time
And I would do anything
I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die
To have you in these arms tonight
Baby, I want you
Like the roses want the rain
You know I need you
Like a poet needs the pain
And I would give anything
My blood, my love, my life
If you were in these arms tonight
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you 'til the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight
We stared at the sun
And we made a promise
A promise this world
Would never blind us
And these were our words
Our words were our songs
Our songs are our prayers
These prayers keep me strong
And I still believe
If you were in these arms
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you 'til the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight
Your clothes are still scattered all over our room
This whole place still smells like your cheap perfume
Everything here reminds me of you
And there's nothing I wouldn't do
And these were our words
They keep me strong, baby
I'd hold you
I'd need you
I'd get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
I'd love you
I'd please you
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you 'til the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight
If you were in these arms tonight
If you were in these arms tonight
If you were in these arms, baby
Like the roses need the rain
Like the seasons need to change
Like a poet needs the pain
I need you in these arms tonight

From the chapel at the Renaissance castle Kronborg in Helsingør, Denmark. The chapel was inaugurated in 1582. 200 years later the castle was turned into military barracks, the interior fittings were stored away and the space used as a gymnasium(!). But the items were kept, and in 1838 they were reinstated in their original place and there they remain to this day.
I do love seeing little areas of the wood lit up by the sun. Chasing sunrays tends to lead you well off the beaten track and into areas less trod, but can be very rewarding. Trying to shelter from the harsh sunlight I was taken by the soft browns off the old fern growth. Captured in Hillock Wood, Buckinghamshire
My husband loves it!!!!!
REPOSTING OF A PIC I UPLOADED EXACTELY ONE YEAR AGO!
Have a look! It's taken in Myanmar, on the seaside!
Thanks Stefano Sivieri www.flickr.com/photos/9535017@N06/ for making it better!!
Ahmed...thanks for the new titel!
In this season of abundant mirth,
May Midsummer bless our Earth,
And as the days grow long and bright,
May love and joy be our guiding light.
I took this pic in 2016. Processed more recently using Topaz to combine DDG layers with original.

The tram at Snowbird ski resort near Salt Lake City, Utah ascends quickly carrying eager skiers for some early season runs. There was a little blurring of the tram car because of the relative speed as we passed so I decided to emphasize the motion with added blur in PS.

I am sure this formation in Monument Valley has a name sadly I do not know it. The huge overhang of rock created a natural amphitheatre, which we were informed, was used for sacred ceremonies. We had a Navaho guide and he took right up to the back wall and sang a Navaho song the sound it made echoing round the walls was spine tingling. The sun was going down and we were stood amidst these ancient stones much older than Stonehenge. Unforgettable..
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE A COMMENT IT’S MUCH APPRECIATED.
Bill open and wings outspread, an American White Pelican comes in for a landing. Last evening there were about 100 pelicans fishing and preening around North Point, a rock outcropping on our city's shoreline.
This flocks usually arrives at the beginning of June and often hangs around for a couple weeks before moving on. Birders, bird photographers, and the general public are all wowed by these amazing, prehistoric-looking birds :)
