L'hiver les bisons se rapprochent de Mud Volcano pour profiter d'une chaleur venue de la Terre. Ce matin de mi-septembre, la température était déjà de 0°C.

I'm not sure what the correct name of this turtle is, however it is called mud turtle locally in Trinidad & Tobago. This was shot at the Emperor Valley Zoo.
The mansions of Antartiko, near the North Macedonian and Albanian borders, are stunning examples of mud-brick vernacular building dating to the heyday of the village in the 19th through early 20th centuries. The population has been in steep decline since WWII, and most of the houses are crumbling into ruins. This house is still occupied, as shown by the smoking upstairs kitchen stovepipe, though the tile roof is beginning to fail.
This was the most intense smelling place. Stay too long and you can start to feel a little light headed...or nauseous. This place is ripe with Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Dioxide. But, the wonderful microorganisms that thrive on the Hydrogen Sulfide convert that gas into Sulfuric Acid, which in turn break down the rocks into the mud. <3 Biology
We were leaving Pilanesberg game Park when this mother and baby rhino charged out of the bush and across the road in front of the car. The must have been having a mud bath. I am pleased with this photo as the light was going and I just had time to aim through the window and press the shutter a few times.
We are now back home - feeling a little weary and will catch up with everyone over the next couple of days.
The day the Olympic Torch came to Sunderland. Wettest summer ever. There is a path under there somewhere!
Nothing like a cooling mud bath on a hot day! Playing around with textures just to see what might happen. Shot in Samburu, Kenya.
This image was taken in Noakhali,Bangladesh. This image signifies the norms. They don't have gas and affording cylinder bottle of gas is also nearly impossible. So people of first world may not familiar with this kind of stove or even if they do they have done this in high school campaign. But this is not campaign, here people have no choice.Here it is life.
…… On catch-up!!! Couldn’t miss this one as my #212 picture of the day! Fun for children of all ages at Blakeney in Norfolk. And no we didn't have a go!!!! Taken on my phone in Apple RAW and edited in Lightroom. Alan:-)

As this elephant cow walked past the car, she was so covered in mud, that I wondered how she could see out of that mud encrusted eye...
.
Alright the plan "was" to go to the m/c field this morning.
Obviously that didn't happen, but it could happen tomorrow.
I was up by 5:05AM but by 5:35AM I was back in bed.
There's a cold snap happening right now and even
the dogs wanted to stay in bed till it warms up.
So today's plan will be tomorrow's plan ;-)---
The scooter/sidecar is all ready to go.
Has fuel in it plus all the anti-Murphy
tools are neatly packed and ready
for use in case they're needed !
Thanks for stopping by ;-)
Thank You.

Anytime a layer of clay silt is deposited by a rainstorm in a depression in the ground, when the clay dries it shrinks and forms the puzzle pattern mud cracks. Like everything else in the world, mud cracks are studied by geologists. If the mud cracks are subsequently covered by another layer of silt and preserved and then through geological changes hardened into rock, they give us a record of the long ago drying event. They use mud cracks to determine the orientation of the original sedimentary beds that formed the cracks. The edges of the mud cracks curl upward and point out which direction was up in the original bed.
Here in Ottawa ontario Canada, we are lucky to have such an amazing place. Its a wildlife conservation area in the middle of the city. Its my place to take great shots and recharge within nature.

Hadleigh Ray creek on Canvey Island.
"Canvey Island is a ... reclaimed island in the Thames estuary in Essex, England. It has an area of 18.44 km2 and a population of 38,170. It is separated from the mainland of south Essex by a network of creeks. Lying only just above sea level it is prone to flooding at exceptional tides, but has nevertheless been inhabited since the Roman invasion of Britain.
"The island was mainly agricultural land until the 20th century when it became the fastest growing seaside resort in Britain between 1911 and 1951. The North Sea flood of 1953 devastated the island, killing 58 islanders and leading to the temporary evacuation of the 13,000 residents. Canvey is consequently protected by modern sea defences comprising 3.2 km of concrete sea walls." Canvey Island (Wikipedia).

Low tide at Wellington Point is muddy, messy and fabulous all at the same time. It makes for great photo opportunities whether its reflections, silhouettes and just the tiny little channels of water reflecting the sun like this. I count my blessings every single day that I live here in the Redlands where there are so many wonderful places to shoot.

Looking west the mud flats are extensive and those low hills on the horizon are the west side of the lake. We are still at the north end of Antelope Island at Lady Finger Point.

At exactly 5:59AM the dogs were being released
in The Mud Cobra Field. At exactly 6:59AM they
were being loaded-up so we can head 4 home.
As you can see here, it was a real quagmire.
Millions of Mr Murphy traps, some bigger
than others. But everyone of them was
a disaster just waiting to happen ;-0-
Getting all the way to the rest area was
a Rodeo Ride x 10 ! Twice I was knocked
out of the saddle, landing hard in the mud.
Today is Thursday August 22 2024.
So why is that so important you ask ?
Well yesterday, being Wednesday, is the
only day the dog clinic is closed. Safety
being high on the list for the dogs,
Wednesday is usually the day
we don't go 2 the m/c field.
Dogs were having "cabin fever" issues.
No rain this morning so we took a little
chance and did a little dance and here
we are, already talking about our wild
adventure splashing about in the Mud.
Getting out, I had to get off an on the
scooter, pushing while twisting the wick.
Once home it took longer to wash each dog !
They are all, Professional Mud Monsters ;-)-

Two young elephants had a wonderful time rolling in the water and mud of the waterhole in Hwange, Zimbabwe. Like two human children, they played and cavorted, slinging mud around and thoroughly enjoying themselves.
A previous post of an elephant family at the waterhole in comments.
Tough Mudder is a twelve mile run punctuated with a series of obstacles designed by Special Forces. These include the Arctic Enema, which sees participants - or "Mudders" - submerged in a pool of ice cubes before swimming through them, beneath a wooden plank and then pulling themselves out the other side. Ice appears again in the Electric Eel obstacle, in which Mudders must slide on their bellies across a layer of the stuff. Any attempts to crawl on one's knees are thwarted by the live electrical wires overhead, which will smack and contort the body back to the ground. With other obstacles as variously named as Ball Shrinker, Fire Walker, Mud Mile and Electroshock Therapy, it's clear that this is not for the faint-hearted.
Which is why it's such a surprise to me that I've signed up to do it. Although I've taken some tiny steps over the last couple of years into the world of bodybuilding, and despite a natural agility and suppleness (gymnastics was the only Phys Ed subject on my high school report card with a decent grade) I haven't much tolerance for physical pain or discomfort, and before I started to train for Tough Mudder, I was barely able to run a mile before feeling like my life was at its end.
I've decided to raise money for the Ayrshire Hospice. My Mum works there as a carer, and I'm contributing to her efforts to fundraise. Donations, large or small, would be hugely appreciated. If I had only a cent or a penny for every time someone here has clicked to favourite a photograph, I'd go several times over my target! So please help. You can donate HERE
See a trailer for tough Mudder here.
