Al Mukhala - is the capital of Hadramout and one of Yemen’s ports on the Arabian Sea. It was known as Khaisa or Bandar Yakoub and has been called Mukalla only recently.
Fishermen were the first to settle in Mukalla, having immigrated from adjacent regions, In this city, the first Princedom of Al-Kasad was established in the 18th 19th century AD, This prosperity gave this city the architectural style of Coastal cities which lie on the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea such as Aqaba, Jeddah, Hodeidah, Mokha, Luhayya, and Aden. All these cities lost their original style, which may now be seen only in the old ‘downtown’ of Mukalla city. It is a style combining the features of Arabian and south-east Asian architecture. Mukalla’s Prominent Features Ma’een Palace, which was built by Sultan Omer Bin Awadah Qu’aiti. Mukalla Archaeological Museum now occupies a part of this palace.

It’s not usual to see snow covering the streets of my town. However, from to time to time, we are blessed with a small snowfall—not so big as to create serious trouble, but big enough to enjoy a white landscape for a day or two. On such rare occasions, I love to take my camera and snap a few pictures.
The day in question started with a big snowfall; I decided to take my car before snow blocked the road. After a few kilometers, I parked my car and I started walking through the falling snow—a sensation almost forgotten for me.
I wandered into a local forest—it was amazing to see how different it looked compared to a normal day. The sky was like a white blanket; there was plenty of light, but it was difficult to see anything in the distance. The absence of color was noticeable; it seemed like everything was covered in a light blue tint and there were no shadows anywhere.

Jack Crawford is celebrated as a hero on Wearside for his exploits at a famous battle. Crawford was born in the East End of Sunderland and, as a youngster, worked as a keelman until 1786 when he joined the crew of the 'Peggy' at South Shields as an apprentice. It is worth bearing in mind that at this point, he was still only 12 years old!
In 1796, he was press-ganged into the Royal Navy and served on HMS Venerable under Admiral Duncan, the Royal Navy Commander-in-Chief of the North Seas.
It was Jack Crawford's actions at the Battle of Camperdown (11 October 1797) that would eventually establish him as a legend.
During the battle, part of the HMS Venerable's mast was shot down and with it, the admiral's flag. Despite being under intense gunfire, Crawford climbed the mast and nailed the colours to the top of what was left of the mast.
Later, at a victory procession in London, he was formally presented to the King and was given a government pension of £30 a year. He later received a silver medal from the people of Sunderland.
Unfortunately in later life, Jack Crawford fell on hard times. He liked a drink or two and was regularly in a state of drunkenness. Eventually, he ended up selling his medal.
Tragically, he became the second victim of the cholera epidemic of 1831 and ended up buried in an unmarked pauper's grave.
It was some years after Crawford had died, that interest in the so-called 'Hero of Camperdown' was re-kindled after a play about his life went on tour. Crawford's un-marked grave ended having a memorial headstone be-fitting a hero, not to mention a separate memorial in nearby Mowbray Park that was paid for by public donations.

Yesterday, 26 September 2016, I had planned to join a group of friends for a birding walk at Bebo Grove, Fish Creek Park. By the time I had had breakfast, I was feeling somewhat queasy and thought I had better not go on the walk after all. Felt a bit better later in the morning and decided to go to the Park after all, getting there about noon. Met a delightful young man standing on the bridge over the creek, pointing out to me a perched bird of prey. My first thought was Merlin, but it seemed to be too big to be a Merlin. It took a while to decide just what it was - helped by excellent birder, Nimali, who happened to come along the path. We decided it was a Cooper's Hawk ('C' for curved edge of tail tip and 'C' for Cooper's). Looking at my photos yesterday evening, I was still not sure that we had made the right decision.
This bird stayed around for ages and gave some nice opportunities for photos, including of it 'mantling' (spreading out its wings to form a cloak) when it captured a large dragonfly and returned to the same branch. When two of us were first standing on the bridge, this bird flew down right over our heads two or three times - maybe because we were attracting insects around us? We noticed a second similar bird, too, and we wondered if they were maybe juveniles, especially as the main one was very comfortable with us standing nearby. Made my day : ) Later: really appreciate everyone's help with identifying this bird as a Merlin!
"Merlins are small, fierce falcons that use surprise attacks to bring down small songbirds and shorebirds. They are powerful fliers, but you can tell them from larger falcons by their rapid wingbeats and overall dark tones. Medieval falconers called them “lady hawks,” and noblewomen used them to hunt Sky Larks. Merlin populations have largely recovered from twentieth-century declines, thanks to a ban on the pesticide DDT and their ability to adapt to life around towns and cities." From AllAboutBirds.

I even spotted several mushrooms earlier in my walk, which was a surprise. Can't believe I was out in the park for about five hours! A very enjoyable walk - glad to have your company, Nimali, and that of the very knowledgeable young man we had just met.

Today it was quite windy and cold during the day but in the afternoon the wind blew all the clouds away and got us some sunshine so right before sunset I drove up there to enjoy the last rays of light that day.

Egypt - Luxor - Hot air balloon flight over Nile West Bank & Temples in Valley of the Kings - طيبة - UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site on banks of river Nile - الأقصر - al-Uqṣur
See ancient Luxor from a different angle. Imagine drifting silently over temples at dawn, not only seeing ancient sites and ruins but also villages waking up in the early morning sun. Sail through the air over sugar cane fields and temples. See desert land and the Nile in the distance. See if you can spot Medinet Habu, the Ramesseum, Temple of Hatshepsut and the Colossi of Memnon or maybe have a conversation with the locals as you drift a few metres from their rooftops. Experience the thrill of perceiving the beauty of Luxor from amidst the crease of clouds. The blue horizon as the backdrop and the colorful air balloons floating across it looks amazing in the skyline of Luxor at the break of dawn. The saffron rays of sun sweeping the city with its first shimmer and you are flying off on a hot air balloon to appreciate the wondrous beauty of the city.
This is exactly how I felt during balloon flight over Luxor. I actually had to come twice for it as the first time I booked it was too windy and the balloon could not take off. What I didn’t know was that would be hot-air balloon crash just the next day after my flight last weekend : Three Egyptian operators and 13 foreign tourists were hurt when the balloon came down during a tour of the ancient city of Luxor. Several people were taken to hospital with minor injuries after the balloon apparently hit a mobile phone mast. It is the latest of several recent incidents involving balloons in Egypt.

Last month I was visiting the beautiful township of “La Baronia de Rialb” in the northeast of the “La Noguera” region in Catalonia. The weather was not very good; the closest mountains were covered with fog and the sun was only visible for a few moments. It might not have been the best day to capture landscapes, but with such weather it was the perfect opportunity to add some motion blur to my pictures and create a few interesting abstracts.
This photo was taken on the small plain behind the “Mas Barrat,” an old farm that is now in ruins. In it, a few century-old pine trees can be observed.

I was looking to get a liquid crown, in this case I used milk, and I wanted to shoot it from the top to emphasize the perfect circle created during the impact. The surprise was a total inspected drop forming an inner crow.

Last year I began building MOCs for the 'Adventures' series after a friend showed me some of his, so I thought I'd join in. Among the builds that follow Johnny Thunder, and fellow Adventurers, I have looked upon the various parts of the series, including; Desert, Jungle and Orient Expedition. There are more in my collection that remain hidden from Flickr, in that some are on my Instagram, www.instagram.com/joycie_mocs/, or are yet to have photos uploaded.
The steamboat was a build that began last year iand continued to grow as I was lucky enough at my local PaB Wall to find slopes for the hull and tiles for the deck. The model is mainly based of a 1920s era steamboard for smaller water ways, as Johnny Thunder would explore in his Orient Expedition.
