Brand "Suppenkasper" ("Soup clown"), a soup made of chicken/tuna with fine pieces of meat. Timmy does not like the meat pieces, so I have to pour the soup through a sieve :-)))
I like the brand "Suppenkasper", it really is a genius name !

One of Canadian Pacific's classy EMD SD70ACUs leads an empty oil train over the Red Lake River at Thief River Falls. I was motivated to find this train when I heard 7046 was the leader - the SD70s have a clean look to them with the revamped beaver logo. The rime ice and sun were also positively motivating. Plenty of snowmobile tracks are visible on the river, in this community where the snowmobile, especially Arctic Cat, is king.

Veszprém is a town that loves music. What is important to us is not only the professionals, the big names and the mass events, but we also strive to make music an everyday part of our life. We motivate amateurs and hobby musicians, because music builds communities and gives our inhabitants experiences to remember. We are happy to think about the bands that have grown up here, the Street Music Festival, VeszprémFest, and the Auer Violin Festival. We are proud to say that all stars who have once performed here like to return to us thanks to the open and music-loving audience.
Due to this openness we have a school in Veszprém where 400 children are learning folk dance. There are three parallel classical music concert series to a full house, and every weekend we provide concerts and electronic music events to 100-1200 young people. Another result is that, relative to its size, Veszprém is a leading city in organising live music events.
We do not emphasize one single style or event but would like to focus on music itself as a tool of communication among people and communities. Participation is what actually counts, because we believe that music can make life better at individual and collective levels.
This is why we would like to create social areas for playing music, motivate learning to perform music, and bring inspiring events to the town. All in all we would like to simultaneously strengthen and widen basis (and also, if a pyramid has a wider base, its top can reach higher). At the same time, music and culture are both highly beneficial to the financial state of the town and tourism, and this fits the aims of ECoC 2023 Veszprém perfectly.
"Heaven, no, I won't say yes.
Heaven, my far away friend.
How can I accept affection from another's arms?
How do I accept? My mother is the earth.
How to deny the blonde light of the life?
Ah, heaven... It hurts far away...
Every evening I look at the sky,
the blue one,
and I hear a voice,
festive bell
to motivate me.
Every Sunday tells me to go there,
there, there,
that build a nest
strange birds
on the sun's steps.
Heaven, no, I won't say yes.
Heaven, my far away friend.
How can I accept affection from another's arms?
How do I accept? My mother is the earth.
How to deny the blonde light of the life?
Ah, heaven... It hurts far away...
Every evening I look at the sky,
the blue one,
and a crazy voice,
like a caress and a threat
calls me close.
Every Sunday tells me to go there,
there, there,
gives me oceans,
bright comets
and whatever the mind sets..."

(Pedionomus torquatus)
Somewhere 70km North of Deniliquin - NSW
Austrália
When we were planning our trip and looking for interesting places and species to photograph in/around Victoria, we came across this amazing but endangered bird. From that moment, we couldn’t wait to have the oportunity to get some shots of it!
However, when we contacted Patricia Maher in late April, we found out that Philip Maher’s available dates were super limited. Since we’d already booked our internal flights, it didn’t seem doable at first. But we’d left our last day in Melbourne free, partly to avoid the risk of delayed or canceled flights and partly to enjoy the city a bit before heading back home on the 26th.
That gave us a whole day (the 25th) to go for this bird! We booked two nights in Deniliquin and braced ourselves for a birding marathon starting at 6:30 AM and possibly ending at 2 AM on the 26th (luckily, our flight home from Melbourne wasn’t until 3 PM).
Two days before the big day, we got in touch with Patricia again, and she told us the weather forecast wasn’t looking great – rain was expected. But hey, plans are plans.
The day before, we drove from Melbourne to Deniliquin (a 3-hour, 270km drive) under nonstop rain. By this point, we were beyond exhausted: after 4 weeks of birding (our longest trip ever!), dealing with an 11-hour time difference, staying in 12 different accommodations, catching 5 internal flights and 3 international ones, eating food very different from what we were used to (and often skipping meals), waking up most days at 5 AM, we almost decided to turn back.
Plus, we already had a decent collection of photos on our hard drives. Honestly, all we wanted was to head back to Melbourne, relax, and enjoy the photos we’d taken.
The idea of driving in the rain for what might turn out to be a wasted effort wasn’t motivating at all. We were this close to turning around and heading back.
Thank goodness we didn’t! Not only did the rain ease up the next day, but we also managed to spot more than 40 new species – including both the male and female of this gorgeous bird. We got hundreds of photos from all the angles and distances we wanted! The female wasn’t super cooperative (she didn’t show off her pretty legs), but the male was a real show-off and a photographer’s dream. I’ll share his photos later too.
Note 1: This is the female of the species. She’s actually more colorful than the male, though some individuals are even more vibrant than this one.
Note 2: Nope, she’s not in the nest. Fun fact about this species: it’s the male that incubates the eggs and raises the chicks. The female focuses on defending her territory and mates with multiple males.
==================***==================
All my photos are now organized into sets by the country where they were taken, by taxonomic order, by family, by species (often with just one photo for the rarer ones), and by the date they were taken.
So, you may find:
- All the photos for this trip Austrália (2024) (309)
- All the photos for this order CHARADRIIFORMES (1170)
- All the photos for this family Pedionomidae (Pedionomídeos) (4)
- All the photos for this species Pedionomus torquatus (4)
- All the photos taken this day 2024/11/25 (30)

It is the first raid of the season. Gods be with us. We come in seven longships and with us one knarr to transport the treasure we expect to take. It is late spring, and the sea is favorable, but the wind is still cold. At the inlet we see the shore obscured by fog. Our arrival should be a surprise.
This is an A.I. photo with a lot of editing.

Before anyone points out that a male Swan is not a Gander, I do know it is a "Cob". But the barge on the left is clearly named "Gander" and I thought it was the best name for this sunset view!
The last few days we have had the "saharan" dust in the atmosphere and there have been some tremendous sunsets and sunrises as a consequence. It had been pretty grey and hazy all day and I was not motivated to go out with the camera in those conditions. So I was busy in the garden and as the evening went on the sky started to get interesting. So, just before sunset I walked to the nearby Marina and I was blessed with these conditions.
The water in the Marina was constantly being rippled by the Ducks and Swans, but I did manage to get this Swan in the frame gliding towards the camera.

We took Flint to a few local parks this week. I good opportunity to get some different sniffs, meet a person or two, and just explore the world. Took a quick cell phone shot of Jean (my wife) and Flint while out and about. He's doing so well with his training. This week we learned to sit patiently while we prepare his food and put it down for him. He only goes for the food when we give him the OK. I was blown away by how quickly he caught on, especially given that he's so food-motivated.
Ich wünsche euch allen einen schönen Jahresausklang. Verbringt die Zeit mit euren Liebsten und macht den Silvesterabend unvergesslich!!
Danke für das wunderbare Jahr auf Flickr und die wunderbare Unterstützung. Das motiviert mich wirklich sehr.
I wish all of you a wonderful last day of the year 2015.
Spend time with your favorite people and make this New Year's Eve memorable.
Thank you for the great year at Flickr and the wonderful support, that motivated me a lot <3 <3
A Honey Bee focused on working the flowers. The only processing here is reducing the saturation for this effect.
Of course she was motivating me to stay home and give her cheese instead of going for a bike ride… but still motivating me.
Collembola Fasciosminthurus saportae
---
Je suis partie vérifier la population des Collemboles Fasciosminthurus saportae (+/- 1mm) et j'avais très envie de voir si la famille Albinos que j'ai découvert il y a deux ans, était toujours présente.
J'ai cherché pendant 2h en plein soleil, à plus de 32° (déjà). Il faut être motivé. Alors que le soleil baissait, à un moment je vois une point orange se déplacer, mon coeur palpite !! c'est l'albinos. Il faut que je me concentre pour réussir une photo. Je suis donc heureuse de vous présenter le Fasciosminthurus saportae classique et son cousin albinos.

I went to check the population of Collembola Fasciosminthurus saportae (+/- 1mm) and I really wanted to see if the Albino family that I discovered two years ago, was still present.
I searched for 2 hours in full sun, at more than 32 ° (already). You have to be motivated. As the sun went down, at one point I see an orange dot moving, my heart is beating !! it's the albino. I have to concentrate to take a picture. I am therefore happy to present the classic Fasciosminthurus saportae and its albino cousin.
Beautiful day
Meditating on "What is essential is invisible to the eye", by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, I reason on the fact that actually being above my valley at night may seem like a non-essential activity... but for me it is, because only in these moments I relate to the invisible.
I notice more and more that today's trend is to homogenize everything, therefore an applause to that wholly personal quid that motivates our lives, each one special and different, therefore unique.

While walking around the train show in Springfield the previous day I ran into a friend and professional photographer who shoots the same camera I just acquired and am learning. I asked for any advice or tips he could offer and the one thing he said was 'don't be afraid of high ISO.'
Well on Sunday my New Jersey buddies didn't want to go back to the show and wanted to find something to shoot. The weather was overcast and we weren't motivated in the morning to shoot the eastbound CSXT parade so. After a leisurely late breakfast I saw a post that one of a kind red nosed Amtrak heritage unit 100 was leading the eastbound Lakeshore. So they were interested in that so we killed time at CP98 in Springfield for a while shooting CTRail and Amtrak's Vermonters then headed west over the Berkshires.
It was pretty dark in the cut at the east portal, but I decided to give the advice I was offered a test. This is the result. I'm truly astonished. This was shot at 8000 ISO and is cropped in to boot! My old 90D could NEVER have done this. He was right, this is game changing indeed....I am truly impressed.
Anyway, running exactly on time, Amtrak train 448, the Boston Section of the Lakeshore Limited pops out of the darkness at the east end of the State Line Tunnel. The little train from Chicago is the only passenger train currently traversing the busy freight route, though it is a far cry from the New York Central's famed New England States that once carried the flag on this route.
The original tunnel here, just out of sight to the right, was bored about 1840 by the Western Railroad and was joined by another just to its south about 1912 when the line was triple tracked. When Conrail singled tracked the line in late 1988 the original tunnel was left vacant and all traffic now moves through this south bore. This 600 ft long tunnel is not actually located on the MA/NY state line but is a couple miles to the west in the town of Canaan, New York at Milepost QB164.8 on modern day CSXT's Berkshire Subdivision, the legendary ex Boston & Albany Railroad.

Today was one of those lazy days when it comes to photography, I kept putting off picking up the camera and finally as the light was starting to sink I figured I'd better get moving.
What better for a day of procrastinating than a photo of a motivator... that and I was a little stumped on inspiration and coffee is always a good model!
Anyway hope everyone has had a good day, and a Happy Independence Day to all my American friends!

I haven't stopped taking photos -- just took a long break from working on them in post. After spending 8 hrs a day looking at a computer screen, I find it hard to motivate myself to look at another computer screen to work on photos. Plus, it's a huge strain on my eyes. I recently got a pair of reading glasses that seem to be helping, so hopefully I get back in to working on pics and posting more.

China, Beijing, Dashanzi 798,,,,,”Bamboo Shadow Art” at twilight in the evening glow at the Beijing art district, located in the Chaoyang District.
The three digit number "798" which stands for much more than the numbers for this once booming compound for the State's pre-reform electronic industries, in Beijing these numbers symbolize country's cutting edge art movement by the Chinese vanguard, untied artistic personalities with alternative life goals.
China's artist vanguard has turned an industrial graveyard into an artistic paradise wild & unconquered attitudes breeze inside 798's free & inconsequential atmosphere.
The large area was once a booming compound for the State’s pre-reform electronic industries, the buildings, designed by the former East German Republic & constructed with help from the now former Soviet Union, were vital for China's old industrial development projects & they're just as key to the art scene at 798.
Old Maoist slogans are visible on the ceiling arches. The Dashanzi factory complex began 1951, production in 1957, as an extension of the "Socialist Unification Plan" of military-industrial cooperation between the Soviet Union & the newly formed People's Republic of China.
Attracted by the Bauhaus Style buildings, around 2002 an amazing reincarnation process began when artists' studios started cheerily popping up like daisies over graves.
This area feels an affinity to what can be discovered & sensed along the Left Bank in Paris or around Greenwich Village, NYC. 798 has become the biggest arts area in China & earned great international reputation acclaim in just two years.
📌 …Artists began to gather to re-make the factory spaces, gradually developing them into swanky galleries, hip art centres, artists' studios, design companies, fashion stores, cosy coffeehouses, bistros, restaurant, bars etc. …..& one of my favoured paces in Beijing.

The monks within the monastery hid their treasure. No matter. They swiftly reveal its location. Many objects shine with the gleam of gold and silver.
We seize some monks as captives and fell the others. With our prisoners and a chest heavy with treasure, we turn back toward our ships.
