This arched facade is all that remains of this ancient Roman theater and are the only remains of any theater from ancient Rome. As can bee seen, a large apartment complex occupies where the seating and stage would have been located. The three columns are what remains of a Temple to Apollo. More details below. Perhaps a stroke around this photo would be in order.
The Theatre of Marcellus (Teatro di Marcello) is an ancient open-air theatre built in the closing years of the Roman Republic. At the theatre, locals and visitors alike were able to watch performances of drama and song.. Space for the theatre was cleared by Julius Caesar, who was murdered before its construction could begin; the theatre was advanced enough by 17 BC that part of the celebration of the ludi saeculares took place within the theatre; it was completed in 13 BC and formally inaugurated in 12 BC by Augustus, named after his nephew Marcus Claudius Marcellus who had died in 23 BC.
The theatre was 111 m in diameter and was the largest and most important theatre in Ancient Rome; it could originally hold between 11,000 and 20,000 spectators. It was an impressive example of what was to become one of the most pervasive urban architectural forms of the Roman world. The theatre was built mainly of tuff, and concrete faced with stones in the pattern known as opus reticulatum, completely sheathed in white travertine. However, it is also the earliest dateable building in Rome to make use of fired Roman brick, then a new introduction from the Greek world.
It is believed that Corinthian columns were used for the upper level but this is uncertain as the theatre was reconstructed in the Middle Ages, removing the top tier of seating and the columns. Like other Roman theatres in suitable locations, it had openings through which the natural setting could be seen, in this case the Tiber Island to the southwest.
The theatre fell out of use in the early 4th century and the structure served as a quarry, e.g., for the Pons Cestius in 370 AD. Iin the 16th century, the residence of the Orsini, designed by Baldassare Peruzzi, was built atop the ruins of the ancient theatre. Now the upper floors are divided into multiple apartments.
The Temple of Apollo Sosianus (previously known as the Apollinar and the temple of Apollo Medicus) is a Roman temple dedicated to Apollo in the Campus Martius, next to the Theatre of Marcellus and the Porticus Octaviae, in Rome, Italy. Its present name derives from that of its final rebuilder, Gaius Sosius.
The three columns of the temple which survive to full-height today belong to the Augustan rebuild, but the cult of Apollo had existed in this area since at least to the mid-5th century BC.
A radical reconstruction was begun by Gaius Sosius, probably just after his triumph in 34 BC. These building-works were themselves soon interrupted by the civil war between Octavian and Antony (with Sosius taking Antony's side), and only resumed some years later when Augustus was reconciled with Sosius.

There is a point south of Point Lobos on the Big Sur coastline where waves build offshore and come crashing in. That is not unusual. What is somewhat unique is that the waves continue up a shelf and then all that was collected, flows back out to the ocean. I've seen this three times, and was fortunately enough to be there on a day when the surf was particularly high, and I caught this outflow as it came roaring back.
In 2012, I saw two ... not-too-intelligent humans trying to make their way down to the base. Fortunately for them, their IQs reached equilibrium (zero plus one) and they scampered back up. You cannot imagine the force of this water and the eddies that form around the base rocks. It is beyond beautiful but must always be treated with respect.
This shot was taken while I was up a cliff about 500 feet. The Pacific coast's beauty is unparalleled along this 100 mile stretch.

IN the city of Ballarat by the end of September, nearly a 1000 miners were digging for gold on the Ballarat field - By 1853, there were more than 20,000 miners of many nationalities working on the field.
In that same year, 10,000,000 grams of gold were transported under police escort to the Melbourne Treasury. Probably as much again was never recorded but sold secretly and illegally. Over the next four (4) years, more than 77,700,000 grams reached Melbourne under escort. On June 10th 1858, the great Welcome Nugget was found. It weighed 68,956 grams and contained an estimated 68,272 grams of pure gold.
Ballarat's last mine closed down in 1918. The total recorded yield from the Ballarat Goldfield amounted to 20,592,000 Troy ounces (Ballarat Historical Society Publication No. 1) and based on a gold price of $A500 per ounce the total value would be around $10,000,000,000. A remarkable figure when it is realised that a large amount of the gold discovered in the district was never recorded.
Ballarat was the scene of Australia's most famous civic insurrection. On 3 December 1854 at Eureka, miners clashed with police and detachments of the 12th and 40th regiments. In all, 28 men were killed and a large number wounded.
Ballarat was proclaimed a township in 1852, created a municipality in 1855, a borough in 1863, and was proclaimed a City on 9 September 1870.
Note: 31.1034 grams = 1 ounce
1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams
Collaboration
In 1981 my father made this awesome and slightly weird drawing.
Part of it is this little bird you see standing next to me!
My grandfather was a great painter, my father was and I couldn't draw even if my life depended on it ;)
So I always felt slightly sad about the fact my father died before I got into photography.
Now I finally found my passion, an art form I can express myself in and he never saw any of it.
But yesterday I thought of this...
a Collaboration between my dad's and my art!
So I did my very best to do his work justice!
It was cold and sunny in the forest.
Just perfect!

After the success of IDS-Brickworld we are glad to present this group layout created in collaboration with nine Brickz Lab members.
It took us about half a year to plan and build the MOC. In the process we went from quick sketches to a 3D model which we then recreated in LEGO parts.
The layout is based on the planet Batuu in Star Wars Lore and the Galaxy\'s Edge section in the Disney parks. We tried to translate as many recognizable features from the original reference into LEGO as we could but also left space for our own interpretation of what it should look like.
Noticeable details are the Rock Spires as well as the rounded buildings.
The MOC shows the occupation of the city by the Galactic Empire in it\'s early days just shortly after the events of Revenge Of The Sith. As such we thought it might be fitting to add an A5 Juggernaut to the build as well as vehicles like BARC-speeders and Infantry Support Platforms in gray colour scheme. Find out more about the story HERE
Big thanks to every participant, everyone who gave us feedback while the build was in progress and to all the helpers at the convention who made this collaboration possible.
The driver of a brand new and un-registered Volkswagen reluctantly brings his car to a slithering halt just in time as 'C2's 041 and 168 round the curve over the road and into the reception sidings at Huanan with their loaded coal train from Hongguang on 30th December 2009. I cursed this incident at the time, as indeed the crossing-keeper did; the car driver should have waited where the road had been partially cleared in the foreground and adjacent to the sign. But the inclusion of the then modern vehicle and the soon to be eradicated steam traction now make an interesting and never to be repeated comparison. The attire of the railway official was also somewhat different to that seen on my first winter visits almost a decade before.

The American robin. As you see, he looks very different from the cute little robins in other parts of the world. They are usually the first sign that Spring is near when they cover the yard looking for insects and worms. In this case, he was looking for water from my leaking bird bath.
The constant battle of the photographer and the waves. Trying to catch just the right motions, without getting wet, is really just foolish. I think if I had any advice for a new seascape photographer, it would be, expect to get wet, use a ten stop filter, and just play with different shutter speeds until you're consistently getting something that you like, and don't get your $5,000 camera wet with sea water. Because salt water and electronics ... well they just don't mix. I was shooting an XT1 next to a rock once in San Diego and took the equivalent of a bucket of sea water on the camera. It still worked fine, weather sealed, but over time things began sticking. Doesn't matter the camera, sea water is eventual death. It will also probably kill your tripod. The price we pay I suppose.
I like this shot because I was alone this night. No one else there. Such a beautiful place, and wonderful soft light to be alone. I fully expected the usual hordes. No one. Not sure why, don't care, it was relaxing to not have to worry about being in anyone's way and not have to stake out my spot. I think I love freedom in general, so when expecting to be bogged down, it's nice to have wings and be able to flutter a bit.

Found in 1586 during the construction of Palazzo Zambeccari (between Trajan's Column and Palazzo Valentini), in the Forum of Trajan.
This is the photo I will be exhibiting at Stockholms photo fair in November. I'm pretty excited because Stockholms photo fair is the Nordic region’s largest photography market and I'm so thankful I get the opportunity to exhibit at that place :)
The theme for the exhibition is "Limitless" and this is my interpretation of the theme.

milde Tage
ein Hund zieht vorwärts an der Leine
die Schnauze stiebt durch Blätterwerk
aus nassem Laube dampfen Eicheln
das Licht ist violett wie Wein
Löwenzahn und dort noch einer
ein Dohlenschwarm im Dohlenlärm
ein Sonnenstrahl für mich alleine
so schwer und süß wie bald Likör
milde Tage ess ich gern
sind so melancholisch
milde Tage leicht im Nebel
milde Tage federleicht
milde Tage leise Lieder
gedämpfte Schritte in der Flur
Tropf von Sonne Lied der Dohlen
hinter mir die Zeitung zu
der Hund zieht vorwärts an der Leine
die Schnauze sucht das Auge sucht
das Frauchen ja ja Frauchen schaut
vom Mais noch Stoppeln Maulwurfhaufen
Flug von Weihen Falken Tauben
Duft von süßen Äpfeln Most
streift jetzt ahnungsvoll das Land
milde Tage an den Hängen
milder Tage Morgentau
in milder Tage Zauberfängen
erwischt ihr mich beim Birnenklau

mild days
a dog pulls forward on the leash
the snout pushes through the leaves
acorns steam out of wet foliage
the light is purple like wine
dandelions and another one there
a flock of jackdaws in the noise of jackdaws
a ray of sunshine for me alone
as heavy and sweet as soon to be liqueur
I like to eat mild days
are so melancholy
mild days light in the mist
mild days light as a feather
mild days quiet songs
muffled footsteps in the meadow
drip of sun song of jackdaws
behind me the newspaper closed
the dog pulls forward on the leash
the snout searches the eye searches
the mistress yes yes mistress looks
from the corn still stubble molehills
flight of harriers falcons doves
scent of sweet apples cider
now forebodingly roams the land
mild days on the slopes
mild days morning dew
in mild days' magic clutches
you catch me stealing pears

The Egyptian Goose is not really a goose, but is actually a Shelduck. It is a cross between a goose and a duck. It has many duck-like characteristics, but it also has some external goose-like traits. It is the most widespread of all the African waterfowl. These old-world shelducks were domesticated by the ancient Egyptians, who considered them to be sacred. The Romans and the Greeks also kept Egyptian Geese in domestic flocks.
Egyptian Geese are mainly found south of the Sahara in Africa, along the Nile River Valley, and in southern Israel. They were introduced into England in the 1700’s, and some feral birds can be found in the United States. They are usually found inland, close to wet areas, and can sometimes be found on the open plains.
The Egyptian Geese are terrestrial; they spend a lot of time ashore. They feed both day and night sometimes far from the water. They are good swimmers and divers. They mainly eat seeds, leaves, grass, berries, and herbs. They also eat locusts, worms, insects, and small animals.
Egyptian Geese stay in small flocks of family units for the majority of the year, and pair up only during breeding. They usually walk away from danger, seldom flying unless they are surprised. Their flight looks heavy and goose-like, with slow wing-beats. They may fly together in an irregular V-shape formation or in a long line.
Egyptian Geese are sexually mature at two years. It is believed they mate for life. They can breed year around, but usually breed in the spring or at the end of a dry season. They have a noisy courtship with much honking, feather displays, and neck stretching. Pairs nest alone and are excellent parents. They build their nests in a variety of locations including: trees, ledges, on buildings, on the ground, in burrows, and on cliffs. They also use a variety of nesting materials, but the nests are always lined with soft, downy feathers. The female lays 5-8 eggs which are incubated for 28 days. If the nest is built up high, the parents will call to the chicks from down below, until the chicks jump to the ground. The young chicks are reared by both parents. They fly at 11 weeks, but remain with the parents for more several weeks.
The Basilica of San Domenico is a Gothic-style church in Arezzo, Tuscany, Italy, dedicated to St Dominic. It is especially renowned for housing a painted crucifix (1265) by Cimabue.
The construction began in 1275 and was completed in the 14th century. The exterior is a sober Tuscan Gothic style.
Above the exterior portal entrance is a much dilapidated fresco painted by Agnolo di Lorentino. On the interior wall of the facade, are late 14th-century frescoes depicting Life of Saints Phillip, James the Minor, and Catherine (1395-1400) by Spinello Aretino. Also on this wall, Spinello's son, Parri di Spinello painted the Crucifixion and Three Saints.
The Dragomanni chapel, built from the 14th century, has an altar by Giovanni di Francesco (1368) and frescoes of ‘’Jesus among the Doctors" by Gregorio and Donato di Arezzo. The triptych of ‘’St Michael archangel and Domenic and Paul’’ is attributed to the Maestro del Vescovado. A stone statue of the "Madonna and child" once stood in one of the gates of the city.
Among the other paintings cited in the church in the 19th century were works by Ulisse Ciocchi and an Annunciation by Valerio Bonci.
Public housing apartments in Northcote, Victoria. These rather interestingly designed apartments replaced some older ones which were quite run down. I think the new ones were built around 2010. The building on the right hand side of the picture is part of a fairly new privately developed complex. Taken at twilight hence the bluish effect.
Luckily the sun rises at a reasonable time these days, that and the convenience of having this tree only two miles from where I live meant only a short but hazardous journey in wellies to capture this cracking dead tree...

Zebras are several species of African equids (horse family) united by their distinctive black-and-white striped coats. Their stripes come in different patterns, unique to each individual. They are generally social animals that live in small harems to large herds. Unlike their closest relatives, horses and donkeys, zebras have never been truly domesticated. There are three species of zebras: the plains zebra, the mountain zebra and the Grévy's zebra. The plains zebra and the mountain zebra belong to the subgenus Hippotigris, while Grévy's zebra is the sole species of subgenus Dolichohippus. The latter resembles an ass, to which zebras are closely related, while the former two look more horse-like. All three belong to the genus Equus, along with other living equids. The unique stripes of zebras make them one of the animals most familiar to people. They occur in a variety of habitats, such as grasslands, savannas, woodlands, thorny scrublands, mountains, and coastal hills. Various anthropogenic factors have had a severe impact on zebra populations, in particular hunting for skins and habitat destruction. Grévy's zebra and the mountain zebra are endangered. While plains zebras are much more plentiful, one subspecies, the quagga, became extinct in the late 19th century – though there is currently a plan, called the Quagga Project, that aims to breed zebras that are phenotypically similar to the quagga in a process called breeding back.

"The Golden Hour"
Moose of Grand Teton
Moose are the largest member of the deer family and love cold weather. They frequent marshy meadows and edges of lakes and streams. About 800 Moose inhabit the southern part of Yellowstone, Grand Teton National Park and surrounding national forests. Moose are most heavily concentrated in Grand Teton Park.
To keep from sinking in mud while feeding, as the animal lowers its foot, a large dewclaw spreads to better support the weight. Similarly, the odd-looking crook of the hind leg allows a Moose to pull the leg straight up, more easily releasing it from deep, sucking mud.
Bull Moose lose their antlers anytime between December and March. Most of the Moose drop them in January. Immature bulls may not shed their antlers for the winter but retain them until the following spring. Female Moose do not have antlers.
A new set of antlers begin to grow the following spring, nourished by the covering of furry skin known as velvet. They take three to five months to develop fully – the velvet is then scraped and rubbed off against bushes and branches. The antlers are then ready for battle. Generally, each set of antlers will be larger than the one before.
Birds, carnivores, and rodents eat dropped antlers as they are full of protein and Moose themselves will eat antler velvet for the nutrients.
Take note—cow Moose with young can be particularly dangerous.

The hidden gem of a waterfall, Gljúfrabúi(Canyon dweller) that is right next to the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall. To get to this one you have to wade through a small river and then you are greeted with the worst spray you'll ever encounter to get a photo, my camera was that soaked you would've thought someone had thrown a bucket of water over it and I had to constantly wipe the lens - hence this is the best of a soaked selfie bunch and 10 seconds to get up on that rock and to stand still getting a shower, so there is movement from me and a few wet spots.

Of course we have been taught to never judge a book by it's cover, but we still tend to read the cover of each other with out reading the full story. Someone is always looking (reading you),may never speak but always have a wondering eye, trying to figure out what isn't seen. So why not give them something magnificent to look at?

The arrival of a Western Swamphen, the second pf this species to be seen in Britain this year has resulted in this beautiful; nature reserve being put on the map. The first Western Swamphen was seen at Minsmere in late July and this could be the first wild bird seen in Britain of this species.
Other wildlife included 5 Spoonbills although numbers had peaked to 22, minimum of 10 wader species including Spotted Redshank and Curlew Sandpiper, 5 birds of prey species including Hobby and plenty of Marsh Harrier, Little Egret, a hooting Tawny Owl and at least 10 Bearded Tits.
There were still quite a few Dragonflies out and 3 species of butterflies.

In a superb natural setting, where the rivers Trent and Ouse join to form the Humber, Alkborough Flats is an exciting project, which helps prevent thousands of homes from flooding. The site is perfect for lovers of wildlife. By breaching the river defences new habitats have been created, which are a haven for wading birds and wildfowl, making the site an ideal area for bird watching and leisurely walks. A number of events are held at Alkborough Flats throughout the year, including group walks, bat detecting and photography sessions. Limited accessibility on some footpaths.
This is the nebula rich region in the constellation of Monoceros the Unicorn with the dark Cone Nebula (left of centre) and the small V-shaped and bright Hubble’s Variable Nebula at bottom, a reflection nebula that varies in form and brightness. Above the Cone Nebula is the triangular Christmas Tree Cluster, NGC 2264, here upside down as the bright blue star 15 Mon is the base of the tree. The large region of nebulosity is Sharpless 2-273. The V-shaped dark nebula above centre is LDN 1603.
Near 15 Mon is a blue reflection nebula. Another blue reflection nebula IC 2169 and associated star cluster Collinder 95 is at left — I framed the field to contain this nebula. Other bits of reflection nebulosity surround it - clockwise: NGC 2245, NGC 2247 and IC 446 above the main nebula. The rich faint cluster near centre is Trumpler 5.
This is a blend of 8 x 5-minute exposures at ISO 800 unfiltered with 6 x 8-minute exposures at ISO 1600 shot through an Optolong L-Enhance dual-band nebula enhancement filter (it lets through only Oxygen III blue-green and Hydrogen-alpha red to really enhance the nebulosity). All exposures with the Canon EOS Ra mirrorless camera through the SharpStar HNT150 Hyperbolic Newtonian Astrograph at f/2.8, from home on a very clear moonless night January 26, 2020. All stacked, aligned and blended in Photoshop 2020.

One of the easier trails in Zion National Park is the Canyon Overlook Trail. You find the trail head at the parking lot on the east end of the tunnel on Utah Highway 9 (Mt. Carmel Road).
(Enlarge the picture and check out the windy road in the canyon below.) This is the view you will be rewarded with when you reach the end of the line.
On the horizon are many formations which have interesting names but my favorite is "The Altar of Sacrifice". You can spot it in the middle. It is the one with 'blood' running down the face of it.
The coast of California is truly a treasure. If you haven't taken a stretch of Highway 1, I would highly recommend it. I insisted on stopping at Julia Pfeiffer Burns state park to see this idyllic waterfall. We didn't stay for sunset because we wanted to get to our hotel before dark.
About McWay Falls: McWay Falls is an 80 foot waterfall located in Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park that flows year-round. Like Alamere Falls, this waterfall is one of only two in the region that are close enough to the ocean to be referred to as "tidefalls". It is located on McWay Creek.
Although it can be viewed via a trail from above, the beach and scenic cove below is difficult to access by land, however, it could be easily reached by boat. Even with this possibility, it is not recommended that people visit the beach as a safety precaution due to crumbling cliffs and environmental reasons.
Some of you may need a bit warmth and color.
So here it is.

Thank you for your visits, faves and comments.
Last of the Ranunculus...
Blooms, buds, petals, shadow and light, colour, joy, it has it ALL?
It is a herbaceous perennial plant growing to 45 cm tall, with simple or branched stems.
The basal leaves are three-lobed, with leaves higher on the stems more deeply divided; like the stems, they are downy or hairy.
The flowers are 3–5 cm diameter, variably red to pink, yellow, or white, with one to several flowers on each stem.
With love to you and thanK you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
