Pun bitterly intended upon the meaning of “Fall,” as either the season (autumn) or as the movement (of leaves down, towards the ground). The shot juxtaposes such a Fall (of leaves) with the pictorial invitation to Ascend by climbing the steps that were once carved out from the rock.
It was as late as in the 1930s that these steps were carved out from the solid rock to replace the earlier used way of ascending: the last person recorded to have used the shaky and rickety rope ladder was in 1911: monk Eugene of the Great Meteoron abbey (monastery) fell off the cliff whilst attempting to climb up that old ladder.
The stairs lead to the remote and deserted Hypapantē monastery (abbey) dating back to 1367 in Meteora, Greece. The abbey was destroyed by fire in 1809 on the instructions of a notorious local Ottoman bully, based in Ioannina.
Hypapantē is the Greek word for “Candlemas” (Luke 2:22–38). The abbey is nested within the rock formation at a height of 230 ft (70 m) above ground.
Meteora is the name of the group comprising many impressive and lofty rock formations: The height of the sandstone megaliths ranges between 1,000-2,067 ft (300-630 m). The rock masses were formed 60 million years ago, are geologically unique and listed in UNESCO world heritage sites.

I hadn't intended filling my photo stream with any more moon shots for a while and I took this solely as a banker shot for my PoTD , but my world since then turned even more crazier than it is when the Postman arrived with a package of forms to fill in, a paper for a blood test which I must book online due to Covid restrictions - all in prep to see if I'm ok to take a drug called Fampyra aka Fampridine for my MS ( multiple sclerosis)
Not intended to be a pretty picture. Just a snapshot to document the 10 inches of snow that fell last night and continues to fall in the West Valley area of Yakima County, Washington. IMG_7382
1951 Cadillac Complete with "Dagmar Bumpers" ---------- "As originally conceived by Harley Earl, GM Vice President of Design, the conical bumper guards would mimic artillery shells.[2] Placed inboard of the headlights on front bumpers of Cadillacs, they were intended to both convey the image of a speeding projectile and protect vehicles' front ends in collisions. The similarity of these features to the then popular bullet bra as epitomized by buxom television personality Dagmar was inescapable." From Wiki
I got here before dawn and snapped away, taking long exposures. I hadn’t intended to shoot the street as I went to shoot the lighthouse to the left of this but loved the way the light was reflecting off the beach. Funny how often the shot you had in mind isn’t the one you end up liking best! In Explore 22nd October, 2022.
Having missed the intended shot near Grain, as the train left early and didn't report, a drive to Paddock Wood to try and salvage the mornings efforts was rewarded with this shot of 66757, appropriately named 'West Somerset Railway', coming off the line from Maidstone West. This was an STP, 6V03 10.15 Grain to Colnbrook aviation fuel. 14/12/2025
Taken with a pole, 5 sections up to get over the telegraph wires
I had intended to see the 4M29 10.28 Felixstowe North to Birch Coppice at Oakham but I arrived there just after it had passed 25 minutes early. Still I caught up with it here at Langham Junction with 66718 in charge
While not we intended to shoot on the West Tennessee Railroad, it still turned out to be a good show from these old General Electric four axles. Three B40-8's and two B23-7's lug a 150 car train south from the CN interchange at Fulton, KY somewhere near Greenfield, TN.
Pun intended. I watched this bird inhale several of these beetles. He would swallow them in one gulp and you could watch the food go down by the large bump it would cause on his breast. An incredible appetite for bugs of all kinds. Thanks for visiting.
I hadn't intended to shoot the moon or anything else, but it awoke me early this morning, pouring brightly through the bedroom window. After fighting the lunar lure for awhile, I relented and prepared to head out.
I was on my way to the park to try to get a lunar reflection as well as the moon itself, when I decided to pull over and grab this street photo. (I will get to a reflection photo or two in due course but not today.)
The final image is a blend of two exposures: one for the moon, the other for the scene. Then, I blended the two in edit, still keeping the scene dark, for that's the way that it was.
I waited for the car to drive into the frame to add a little extra interest.

For the macro mondays theme: Intended Contact
Thank you for your time, faves and comments, it's much appreciated
HMM
We arrived home a lot later than we intended tonight. That's because I was photographing a pod of dolphins playing under and around our boat (yacht) for over half an hour. Of course having a captain who was all for it, was a great help. He was the one who first spotted them as I had my eye glued to the lens in a different direction, but still in the West Head vicinity.
I started off with a 600mm lens I was using at the time the dolphins came into view, but I quickly changed that to a smaller one, owing to the close proximity of the dolphins.
These beautiful creatures swam from West Head over towards Barrenjoey Lighthouse. We may not have seen the whales this weekend and I definitely don't like it when they are under a boat due to their size. However, I consider it a blessing to have had this wonderful encounter today.
The dolphins seemed to be working in pairs ( 4 of them all told) and now I have heaps and heaps of photos to edit, but no time to do anything about that over the next week as I'll be out photographing again tomorrow and on with another adventure!
Just watch this space...
So, I intended to do a steampunk style photo and the ideas I had weren't working. I liked this particular one even though it's a more of a collision of steampunk and syfi.
I'm sorry if you faved this picture before. I saw a problem and had to fix it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is an A.I. photo with a lot of editing.
I hope my photos make you smile ♥

I love my followers. You guys totally ROCK! ♥♥
And if you're taking time to read this you are SO awesome!!! Thank you!!!! ♥♥♥
Here's a link to my other Flickr photos:
Had intended to wrap up the visit to Bratislava today, but couldn't resist posting a few more. This building is probably Jugendstil (Art Nouveau), late 19th-early 20th Century. Map location approximate.
Macro Mondays 'intended contact' theme.
This is part of Tasku's show ring chain with trigger clip attached and part of the beaded lead behind.
The ring and the part of the trigger clip showing in the image measure a total of 3cm
It was built at the end of 19th Century by master-builders Pyrch Mykhailo Mykhailovych and Pyrch Fedir Mykhailovych and re-built in 1946. After Prykarpattia’s joining to the Soviet Ukraine, the mill became the property of a local collective farm. It was used for its intended purpose. In 1960th, after a water flood it didn’t function till 1970th, when transferred to the Museum. The mill stayed on a bank of a torrent, flowing out of Shypit water flow.
The building has a double-room log construction. It consists of a “shack” to shelter the visiting farmers and a mill itself with mechanism. It has two waterwheels and two pairs of stones – grinding plates.
The flouring mill is built of smereka wood. Its high roof is covered by combination of straw and wood. It is the only showpiece of the museum with such combination of roofing techniques.
To grind corn, water should be forwarded to the walls. For this purpose, the stream has been dammed up by smereka timbers. Water taken from the torrent passed by hollowed-up logs to the upper wheels; they turned the axles with wheels – gears, and they tuned a shaft and the upper stone. Grains had to be loaded into a hopper fixed above, and flour fell into a through, fixed under the lower stone.
Total area of the building is 62.7 square meters.
Млин із села Пилипець, Міжгірського району, Закарпатської області.
Збудований наприкінці ХІХ ст. Майстри-будівничі - Пирч Михайло Михайлович і Пирч Федір Михайлович. В 1946 році його перебудували. Після приєднання Закарпаття до радянської України млин став власністю колгоспу, використовувався за призначенням. В 1960-х роках після повені млин не функціонував до 1970-х років, коли його перевезли до Музею. Млин стояв на березі стрімкого потоку, що витікає з водопаду Шипіт.
Споруда має двокамерну зрубну конструкцію і складається з «хижі» - приміщення, де жили і відпочивали приїжджі селяни, і млина з механізмом. Він має два водяних колеса і дві пари каменів – жорен.
Млин збудований із смерекового дерева. Високий дах комбінований, покритий соломою і деревом. В музеї це єдиний експонат, де поєднано різні матеріали та покрівельні техніки.
Щоб перемолоти збіжжя, треба було спрямувати воду на колеса. Для цього потік перегороджувався гаттю із смерекових колод. Воду з потоку подавали довбаними колодами до верхніх коліс, які обертали вали із закріпленими на них колесами – шестернями, а вони обертали веретено і верхній камінь. Зерно засипали в кіш, що кріпиться зверху, а борошно сиплеться в корито, яке закріплене внизу нижнього каменю.
Загальна площа споруди – 62,7 кв.м.
I intended to walk out to the end of the pier to admire both lighthouses, which have recently been refurbished. The north wind was kicking up the waves, and I got a nice splash right after snapping this picture.
I had intended to use this image for Macro Mondays but I found an image I liked better. I do still like this picture so it gets posted.
Intended for express passenger work in South-West England, 66 were eventually built and saw several improvements throughout their service careers. The class operated until 1963 when the last example, No 30120, was withdrawn. 30120 was preserved by the National Railway Museum, and is currently on long term loan to the Bodmin and Wenford Railway.
Intended for this to be my new profile pic but couldn't make the the motif fit the proportions :) I like it anyway.

47270 crossing the river Weaver at Frodsham with the returning Dalesman 1Z54 Carlisle - Chester. This is actually a going away shot as my intended location was Godscroft lane. However a quick divert to this spot once i'd found out 270 was annoying on the back!
With both Minntac and UTAC pellets flowing to Lakehead for winter stockpile, Proctor once again looks the part of an iron ore terminal. Word among crews is that CN might remove the scale house here now that all the plants have their own scales.
Réserve des Rohrmatten
L'observatoire est plutôt prévu pour voir des oiseaux mais on a quelquefois de belles surprises comme la visite de sangliers. Ce jeune est passé vraiment tout près et sans zoom j'ai dû me contenter de ne photographier que sa tête.
The observatory is rather intended to see birds but we sometimes have nice surprises such as visiting wild boars.
This week's theme for Macro Mondays is "Intended Contact"... and there is definitely intended contact when it comes to a predator and its prey! In this photo a Green Jumping Spider has captured and killed a Soldier Fly more than twice its size.
05-11-2018 Macro Monday theme (Intended Contact)
Interaction between two objects.
This weeks Macro Mondays theme is (Intended Contact).
So I created a scene where a little green pottery Hedgehog moneybox sniffed out a lovely snail, well they do eat those type of creatures .... "so don't look behind you!" ..... "don't worry" as a pottery Hedgehog moneybox luckily only prefers coins, so all is still good in the world.
By the way no snails were hurt in the making of this image.
The only thing that actually suffered was me .... well it was raining all day and I did get somewhat wet!
Love and Peace ...... Everyone!!!!
The VFW VAK 191B was an experimental German vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) strike fighter of the early 1970s. VAK was the abbreviation for Vertikalstartendes Aufklärungs- und Kampfflugzeug (Vertical Take-off Reconnaissance and Strike Aircraft). Designed and built by the Vereinigte Flugtechnische Werke (VFW), it was developed with the purpose of eventually serving as a replacement for the Italian Fiat G.91 then in service with the German Air Force.
Operationally, it was intended to have been armed with nuclear weapons as a deterrent against aggression from the Soviet Union and, in the event of a major war breaking out, to survive the first wave of attacks by deploying to dispersed locations, rather than conventional airfields, and to retaliate against targets behind enemy lines.
The VAK 191B suffered from a protracted development cycle, spanning ten years between inception and flight, in part due to changing requirements, partnerships changing, and the difficulty inherently associated in the development of VTOL-capable aircraft. Ultimately, during the late 1960s, VFW took the decision to demote the development programme from targeting the type's production and instead only to test-fly a limited number of prototypes, using the VAK 191B effectively as a technology demonstrator and experimental aircraft to support the company's other activities and future programmes. On 10 September 1971, the first prototype conducted the type's maiden flight. A total of 91 flights were performed prior to the retirement of all three prototypes in 1975. These aircraft have been preserved and two are now on public display in museums.
KEMBACK AULD KIRK
This church was built in 1582 and was therefore one of the first post-Reformation churches to be built in Scotland. It was intended to replace an earlier place of worship, a rectory founded by Bishop de Bernham in 1244 and situated in the grounds of Kemback House (site 10518). Kemback Old Church is in a graveyard to the southwest of the current parish church, on a plateau above Ceres Burn. It is enclosed within a low coped wall. The church was built on an asymmetrical 'T' plan with an off-centre north aisle, which is no longer upstanding. It is gable ended and now roofless, although the west gable retains its full height. It was replaced by a new church in 1814.
the church walls are of sandstone rubble, with dressed quoins and window margins.
The traditional medieval east-west plan of the church is reversed and east is no longer the principal elevation. The east gable does not survive. The remaining east wall appears to have had two windows the most northerly of which probably dates to c.1760, and is rectangular and truncated at the head. To the south of this is a blocked rectangular opening in an in-filled segmental arch, visible on the interior of the church. There is a cavetto moulded skewputt on the northeast corner of the face, from which would have sprung the crowstepped gable. A low walled burial enclosure extends eastwards from the foot of the wall, which makes the church appear more elongated than it actually was.
In the south elevation of the church is a series of intermittent square headed openings. The most easterly of the windows is square and appears to have originally had a segmental head. The next most westerly window is rectangular and is also inserted in place of a segmental arch. The size of this opening on the interior of the church is larger than on the exterior, but it has been partially blocked up, probably during the renovations of 1760. To the west of this is an eighteenth century square headed door capped by a lintel. Steps lead into the church through the door, which has a segmental head on the interior. To the west of this is a large rectangular window which also appears to date to c.1760. As with the window which flanks the door to the east, this opening appears to have been larger on the interior. This may indicate the former presence of a broad sill or deeply sloping recess for the window, rather than an enlarged opening, as there is no evidence of a larger window having existed on the exterior.
The new(er) and the old. Originally I intended to spend Saturday chasing the Iowa Northern, but seeing as the skies were beginning to open up I opted for LNM34 instead. Unfortunately I had to end the chase here as storm clouds lingered just to the South, but I walked away with a few bucklist shots checked off.
..I intend to suck it out of this one honey, yep, I intended contact here, no two ways about it;)
HMM flickr friends, may your week continue as you intended it to.
My new second-hand Sony Alpha 7RIV with my 1970-1980 Canon FE vintage lens :) But I have to deny that the possibility to zoom in and out during MF shots is faster at 7RII - or I didn't find a better option yet :D - maybe, it was more intended to use MF with 7RII than with 7RIV. But it's one reason more to get my 7RII's sensor changed ;)
Leeu 1A5 of the 82 Mechanized Brigade on exercise north of Kariba
The Leeu 1 was conceived in 1976 as a counter to the increasingly capable tanks being produced by Die Wêreldryk during the first half of the decade. It would go on to serve with distinction during the jungle war of 1980, its 110mm gun proving capable of punching through even the toughest imperial armor. It would serve again in the Great Demon War, proving itself yet again.
By 1992 the Leeu 1 has been superseded by its descendant, the Leeu 2. However, this tank still makes up the bulk of South Yafrani armored units, the Leeu 2's cost inhibiting its intended widespread adoption.
Yes, I did steal those new mudguards, how could you tell?
The sculpture is intended to remind...
That both human beings and molecules exist in a world of probability and that the goal of all creative and intellectual traditions is to find wholeness and unity within the world.
Jonathan Borofsky
**The Molecule Man is a Berlin monumental work of art created in May 1999 by the American sculptor Jonathan Borofsky . It is a three-person sculpture that was set up in the Spree between Elsenbrücke and Oberbaumbrücke near the intersection of the three districts of Kreuzberg , Alt-Treptow and Friedrichshain .

Morning mist and shipwreck standing still on the beach. Story behind the shipwreck: Known as the Tomales Bay Shipwreck, the Inverness Shipwreck, or the S.S. Point Reyes, the tall fishing boat was once in danger of being removed, but it was local photographers who actually saved it. The vessel was originally dragged aground by the land’s previous owner who had intended to fix the ship up. However, like many fixer-upper projects, he never actually got around to the repairs, leaving the boat, which still bears the name, “Point Reyes,” to decay on the shore.

I had intended to go out to see if there were any birds around, when I came across a fire that had just started in the forest near the city outskirts. Sad to see this fire in Kenna Cartwright Park, such a beautiful park to hike and see wildlife bordering on the city. They say they are getting this one contained, but still, fire by the city. This year is projected to be exceptionally dry -- sigh.
A wheel is a circular component that is intended to rotate on an axle bearing. The wheel is one of the key components of the wheel and axle which is one of the six simple machines. Wheels, in conjunction with axles, allow heavy objects to be moved easily facilitating movement or transportation while supporting a load, or performing labor in machines. Wheels are also used for other purposes, such as a ship's wheel, steering wheel, potter's wheel, and flywheel.
Common examples can be found in transport applications. A wheel reduces friction by facilitating motion by rolling together with the use of axles. In order for wheels to rotate, a moment needs to be applied to the wheel about its axis, either by way of gravity or by the application of another external force or torque. Using the wheel, Sumerians invented a device that spins clay as a potter shapes it into the desired object.

Captured at: Brooklyn Bridge Park -- Brooklyn , NY.
View of the Brooklyn Bridge from the waterfront park sharing the same name. This non-HDR shot provides a view of the bridge, and various buildings in Lower Manhattan -- including South Street Seaport.
In the foreground is Jane's Carousel, which was originally constructed in 1922 for an amusement park in Ohio. The carousel was recently restored by Jane Walentas, a Brooklyn artist who spent over 20 years overseeing its restoration.
"The Waterfront" was processed in Photoshop using Topaz Labs plug-ins (Adjust, B/W Effects, Denoise, Glow, Impression & LensFX), and was intended to be charcoal pencil sketch like in appearance.
