As I work in the garden I always keep the camera handy, as you never know what you'll disturb and see. I was rewarded this time with this Small Magpie Moth (Anania hortulata) that flew out from some weeds and landed on our stone wall, with its wings outstretched to show their full beauty.
…….And the Larch ascending behind it. The morning sun on the Magnolia was a delight to see today so I made it my #085 shot of the day, taken on my phone in Apple RAW and edited in Lightroom. Alan:-)

The Treasury (Al-Khazna). A vast structure and magnificent architecture are Petra's main site attractions.
Established possibly as early as 312 BC as the capital city of the Nabataeans, it is a symbol of Jordan, as well as Jordan's most-visited tourist attraction. It lies on the slope of Jebel al-Madhbah (identified by some as the biblical Mount Hor in a basin among the mountains that form the eastern flank of Arabah (Wadi Araba), the large valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. It is believed that Petra was home to roughly 30,000 people and was abandoned in the year 106 A.D. Site has been a UNESCO World Heritage since 1985.

I captured this magnificent view of the Eiffel Tower when the lights would sparkle at the top of each hour. Hand held photo shot (set on a ledge) from the Trocadéro Gardens, the Tower reflected in the Trocadéro Gardens reflecting pool. The École Militaire seen through the bottom of the tower and on the left along the horizon is the illuminated dome of Les Invalides. Such an amazing city and some wonderful memories. I love Paris ! !
For 2 years, I have seen this tree from the road, wanting to take a picture of it, and now finally I found time and the path that lead me to it.

Human visitors appear tiny against the size of the palace buildings inside the Agra Red Fort. They are representative palace buildings from the time of Shah Jahan. While Akbar built predominantly with red Barauli sandstone from the Dholpur region in what is now Rajasthan, Shah Jahan preferred white marble with decorations made of glass and semi-precious stones as a building material. The Red Fort was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1983.

Während Akbar vorwiegend mit rotem Barauli-Sandstein der Region Dholpur im heutigen Rajasthan bauen ließ, bevorzugte Shah Jahan weißen Marmor mit Verzierungen aus Glas und Halbedelsteinen als Baumateria. Das Rote Fort wurde 1983 in das UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe aufgenommen.

“There is mystery behind that masked gray visage, and ancient life force, delicate and mighty, awesome and enchanted, commanding the silence ordinarily reserved for mountain peaks, great fires and the sea.”
The Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) is the largest living land animal in Asia. Since 1986, the Asian elephant has been listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List, as the population has declined by at least 50 percent over the last three elephant generations, which is about 60–75 years. It is primarily threatened by loss of habitat, habitat degradation, fragmentation and poaching. In 2019, the wild population was estimated at 48,323-51,680 individuals. Female captive elephants have lived beyond 60 years when kept in semi-natural surroundings, such as forest camps. In zoos, Asian elephants die at a much younger age; captive populations are declining due to a low birth and high death rate.
