To look at this one of Norway's most famous waterfalls at the top cliff point, you have to drive on the old road, making 125 sharp turns.
And sleeves of the waterfall twisting down through the rocks on the background of swirling mists above the gorges of the Mabodalen ridge.

Там, где петляют водопады

Чтобы взглянуть на этот один из самых знаменитых водопадов Норвегии с верхней точки у обрыва, надо проехать по старой дороге, делающей 125 крутых поворотов.
Да и рукава водопада петляют по крутым скальным склонам на фоне клубящихся туманов над ущельями горного массива Мобедален.

Most Świętokrzyski – pierwszy most wantowy w Warszawie na Wiśle otwarty 6 października 2000 roku, łączący Powiśle z Pragą-Północ w okolicach Portu Praskiego.
Budowa mostu trwała 2 lata, a całkowity koszt zamknął się w kwocie ok. 160 mln. zł.
The Świętokrzyski Bridge is a bridge over the Vistula river in Warsaw, Poland linking Powiśle neighbourhood with Praga Północ district.
It is a cable-stayed bridge, 479 m long, with two lanes for vehicles, a pavement and a cycle path each way. The single tower, 90 m high, located on the right (eastern) river bank, has 48 cables attached supporting the deck. Near the left (western) bank the bridge is supported by two piers. The bridge was opened on 6 October 2000 after two years' construction. (wiki)
The most noticeable characteristics of the American red squirrel are the tail and the eye ring. The tree squirrel's tail is bushy and dark red with hints of a white outline. The eye ring is a thick, white circle around the rodent's black eyes. American red squirrels are about 12 inches and have grayish, red, or rust-colored fur with a white belly. Sometimes a black stripe can be seen on the sides.

The most iconic structure in all of Marken is certainly the so-called Paard van Marken ("Horse of Marken"), a monumental lighthouse that rises from the easternmost point of the peninsula; the current structure dates from 1839. The peculiar name stems from its shape, which consists of a 54-ft. (16m) tower attached to two pyramidal-roofed houses. Since the Paard van Marken is now a private residence, it is closed to the public.
This is the most popular subject to photograph on the Isle of Skye and understandably so. The rock stacks making up the structure - the old man, the needle and the other features that escape me - are like something out of Lord of the Rings. You wouldn’t be all that surprised to see a dragon flying overhead with all that gothic looking geology going on around you.
The day I was there was wet, cold and very windy making it difficult conditions to catch any shots never mind taking the time to get some HDR exposures. I had timed the trip to be there for sundown but the clouds were so thick and low that there no chance of getting any nice colour. So here we have a colour image of the stormy weather conditions on the Storr mountain ridge. Maybe I’ll get better luck on the weather next time.
Kuznetsky Most is one of the most beautiful pedestrian streets in the historical center of Moscow.
The street got its modern - and at the same time historical - name thanks to the Kuznetsky Bridge across the Neglinnaya River. Today, Kuznetsky Most Street attracts citizens with its high-quality landscaping, an abundance of architectural monuments and an unusual relief: due to the significant difference in heights between Petrovka and Rozhdestvenka, the city landscape looks especially picturesque.
Kuznetskaya Sloboda on the high bank of the Neglinnaya River - Neglinnaya Upper - appeared in the 12th century, but its heyday came only at the end of the 15th, when the Cannon Yard was built in the vicinity, and the Moscow prince Ivan III ordered to settle in it blacksmiths and grooms who served new production. At the turn of the 15th-16th centuries, Novgorod and Pskov were annexed to the Moscow principality, and craftsmen of various professions from these cities were moved to the Neglinny Upper.
In 1737, the street burned out during the Trinity fire, but rather quickly new buildings were built on it, in which foreign shops began to be located. Gradually, the street turned into the abode of foreign trade: the French showed particular zeal, opening fashion and haberdashery shops here, thanks to which Kuznetsky Most became the main shopping street in Moscow. During World War II and the fire of 1812, it practically did not suffer from the fire, since the French guard took over the protection of the business of compatriots. After the war, trade flourished again, and many fashionable shops were opened on it (almost all of them were foreign, most of them were French). The abundance of foreign shops made Kuznetsky Most the most fashionable and aristocratic street in Moscow, which it remained until the 1917 Revolution.
During the Soviet era, the street lost part of the historical buildings, many buildings were rebuilt, and the street gradually took on a modern look.
After the reconstruction carried out in 2012, the Kuznetsky Most section from Bolshaya Dmitrovka to Rozhdestvenka became pedestrian.
Today Kuznetsky Most Street is a well-maintained pedestrian zone, where city holidays and festivals are often held.
Despite the losses of the Soviet years, a large number of architectural monuments have been preserved on it: tenement houses, partially preserved city estates and passages. Among them are famous Moscow sights: the building of the Moscow International Trade Bank, Khomyakov's trading house and others.

I spent most of yesterday looking for some autumn color to shoot. Well, that's not quite right. I didn't have to look very far to find something to shoot because right now here in western Newfoundland it looks like we're living on top of a giant pumpkin! Seriously.
What I meant was, I was looking for something different ... or somewhere different ... I hadn't shot before. And, I did manage to do that, but I still couldn't resist going back and shooting some of the old familiar stuff as well ... but, tried to shoot it from a slightly different point of view.
This is one of the most beautiful and breathtaking views I have had on my trip through the Allgäu. I'm standing on mt. Tegelberg, at a height of about 1800 meters and look over countless Alpine peaks. Unfortunately I don't know the name of any of them. Not even from this sleeping giant lying right in front of me.
I could have stayed here for hours or wandered around, but unfortunately it was already afternoon and we still had to catch the last ride on the mt. Tegelberg ropeway. And so I only had 20 minutes just enough time to shoot this panorama.
Next time I'll take the first train up early in the morning and spend a whole day exploring these many paths (some of which can also be seen in the picture).
I am sure there is so much more to discover and photograph up here.
Dies ist einer der schönsten und atemberaubendsten Ausblicke, die sich mir auf meiner Reise durchs Allgäu geboten haben. Ich stehe auf dem Tegelberg, in einer Höhe von ca. 1.800 Metern und blicke über unzählige Alpengipfel hinweg. Leider weiß ich von keinem einzigen den Namen. Nicht einmal von diesem schlafenden Riesen, der direkt vor mir liegt.
Ich hätte hier für Stunden ausharren oder herumwandern können, doch leider war es schon am Nachmittag, und wir mussten die letzte Fahrt der Tegelbergbahn noch erwischen. Und so hatte ich nur 20 Minuten Zeit, gerade genug für dieses eine Panorama.
Beim nächsten Mal werde ich früh Morgens mit der ersten Bahn hoch fahren und einen ganzen Tag damit verbringen diese vielen Wege (von denen einige auch im Bild zu sehen sind) zu erkunden.
Ich bin mir sicher, dass es hier oben noch so viel mehr zu entdecken und zu fotografieren gibt.

Most of the year this tributary of the River Thames is little more than a large ditch, yet is already building up to its annual winter flood of surrounding fields.
Like most of Galapagos, Sombrero Chino (Chinese Hat) is volcanic in origin. The exploration path starts with a gorgeous beach, bright red Sally Lightfoot crabs and marine iguanas. The path goes past a colony of endemic Galapagos sea lions before passing a lava field: look for the lava cactus growing in the cracks. On the beach, keep your eyes open for the American Oystercatcher, a wading bird with a distinctive orange beak. On the trail, you may see lava lizards.
Barn Owl - Tyto Alba
Like most owls, the barn owl is nocturnal, relying on its acute sense of hearing when hunting in complete darkness. It often becomes active shortly before dusk and can sometimes be seen during the day when relocating from one roosting site to another. In Britain, on various Pacific Islands and perhaps elsewhere, it sometimes hunts by day. This practice may depend on whether the owl is mobbed by other birds if it emerges in daylight. However, in Britain, some birds continue to hunt by day even when mobbed by such birds as magpies, rooks and black-headed gulls, such diurnal activity possibly occurring when the previous night has been wet making hunting difficult. By contrast, in southern Europe and the tropics, the birds seem to be almost exclusively nocturnal, with the few birds that hunt by day being severely mobbed.
Barn owls are not particularly territorial but have a home range inside which they forage. For males in Scotland this has a radius of about 1 km (0.6 mi) from the nest site and an average size of about 300 hectares. Female home ranges largely coincide with that of their mates. Outside the breeding season, males and females usually roost separately, each one having about three favoured sites in which to conceal themselves by day, and which are also visited for short periods during the night. Roosting sites include holes in trees, fissures in cliffs, disused buildings, chimneys and haysheds and are often small in comparison to nesting sites. As the breeding season approaches, the birds move back to the vicinity of the chosen nest to roost.
Once a pair-bond has been formed, the male will make short flights at dusk around the nesting and roosting sites and then longer circuits to establish a home range. When he is later joined by the female, there is much chasing, turning and twisting in flight, and frequent screeches, the male's being high-pitched and tremulous and the female's lower and harsher. At later stages of courtship, the male emerges at dusk, climbs high into the sky and then swoops back to the vicinity of the female at speed. He then sets off to forage. The female meanwhile sits in an eminent position and preens, returning to the nest a minute or two before the male arrives with food for her. Such feeding behaviour of the female by the male is common, helps build the pair-bond and increases the female's fitness before egg-laying commences.
Barn owls are cavity nesters. They choose holes in trees, fissures in cliff faces, the large nests of other birds such as the hamerkop (Scopus umbretta) and, particularly in Europe and North America, old buildings such as farm sheds and church towers. Buildings are preferred to trees in wetter climates in the British Isles and provide better protection for fledglings from inclement weather. Trees tend to be in open habitats rather than in the middle of woodland and nest holes tend to be higher in North America than in Europe because of possible predation.
This bird has suffered declines through the 20th century and is thought to have been adversely affected by organochlorine pesticides such as DDT in the 1950s and '60s.
Nocturnal birds like the barn owl are poorly monitored by the Breeding Bird Survey and, subject to this caveat, numbers may have increased between 1995-2008.
Barn owls are a Schedule 1 and 9 species.

4,000 pairs

Yet it is doubtful whether most people realize how extraordinarily slippery a liar the camera is :-)

The Flame-faced Tanager is one of the most spectacular members of the diverse and exceptionally colorful genus Tangara. Living up to its common name, the forehead begins as a deep glimmering red, shading into a brilliant yellow on the nape and sides of the head. This "flame" contrasts sharply with the jet black back. The Flame-faced Tanager is a common member in mixed species foraging flocks in the canopy of humid montane forest from the Andes of extreme southwest Venezuela south to central Peru. It forages exclusively along mossy branches and occasionally peering at the underside in search of arthropods. There are three subspecies of the Flame-faced Tanager, described based mostly on minor differences in plumage. The species is typically found from 1000-2600 m and is most numerous above 1500 m. The IUCN Red list assesses the Flame-faced Tanager as a species of Least Concern; however, the population size is declining due to habitat destruction. Thus, the Flame-faced Tanager should become the focus of future studies.

Most people perceive darkness as negative. however, i feel safe in the dark. Not everyone can see right through you. You can observe from the dark without being noticed. Thus you recognize the truth from the darkness. And even if it hurts. The truth is positive.

The Three Sisters in Canmore, the town’s most recognizable peaks and some of the most unique in Canadian Rockies. The Three Sisters are never getting old 😉. The names of the Three Sisters are individually known as Big Sister, Middle Sister, and Little Sister – or Faith, Hope, and Charity respectively. Went there twice, first time to check the location around sunset time, second time for sunrise, it was very dark in the early morning to walk there before sunrise… Head lights and bells were recommended. Several people arrived one after another, it was freezing cold, stayed for over two hours, from blue hour to golden hour… Closely contacted with three sisters. 😊
The most spectacular of all birds of prey?
The largest of the Falcons and of course the fastest animal on the planet it's definitely a contender
For me (of the ones I've actually seen) the Red Kite still 'edges' it..,but never the less this is one very special bird
the most precisely articulated national purpose in recorded history. Not only is it a famous statement of purpose: it is also an admirable statement of purpose. Prior to July 4, 1776, the national purpose of nations had been to dominate... The American national purpose was the opposite: to liberate from domination; to set men free. All men are created equal.
We not only have a national purpose; we have one of such aspiration, such potentiality, such power of hope that we refer to it — or used to — as the American Dream :-)

Most often you need lots of lens to capture good wildlife images, trying to get close without disturbing the subject. But occasionally the bird surprises you and comes too close. We were trying to photograph this secretive Least Bittern at some distance, while it hid in the tall grass. It suddenly flew towards us and landed in a nearby tree. As a hardened photographer I should have removed my teleconverter, but alas I panicked and only got a head shot. I'll take it though.

Flower buds of the hybrid Grevillea "Poorinda Blondie". "Poorinda" is an Aboriginal word meaning light.
None of the flowers have opened fully. The plant about 3m tall was covered in inflorescences of different ages. The shape of the flowers is typical of Grevilleas. However, the colour combination of orange and red in the flowers is unusual and gives the impression that they are brown when seen at a distance. Taken in full sunlight.
Thank you for visiting. I very much appreciate the faves and very kind comments which have been left.
As a photographer, I frequently try to find the most pristine scenes with no signs of human intervention.
But even in relatively remote locations, you sometimes just have to accept that you weren't the first person to have walked the highest sand ridge today...
Most of the time their plumage appears black, brown and white. On occasion in the right light, you get the iridescent "Jimi Hendrix" experience.
