A Washington State Ferry pulls out of Anacortes, bound for Lopez, Shaw and Orcas Islands. The islands appear even more beautiful to me in the fading light than in the brightness of daytime. Thanks for viewing.

For "Looking close... on Friday!" ; theme : "odd one out".

A look straight out to sea from the clifftop view point at Bedruthan Steps , a wonderful spot to take in the views here !!

At the Fushimi Inari Shrine, the torii gates are donated by businesses and have the name of the business painted on the gate. It's a fun experience walking through the tunnels of hundreds of torii gates along the trails up and down Mt. Inari.

  

Where ever it grows,what ever color it is....their beauty is always admirable. Between those green leafs on the water this flower just stands out

For me it is often less about where a specific place is than it is about what a place is... if that makes sense or not.

Something seems out of place in this picture. Maybe it's those small birds in the water.

Sometimes graffiti isn't always enjoyable but this spray created an interesting shape and colour. I returned to take another image a few days later and it had been 'repaired' so this is never to be repeated!

I am a vagabond, and this is a self portrait. It shows a time where a new door has begun to open, a new light shining within me. A complete surrendering to faith, love, each person becoming a gift, a new member of my community. There is freedom in faith!

  

"You hit the road and stumble around from town to town,

and all along you see pretty farms,

pretty cars, pretty people, pretty towns,

and you don't think you can ever make enough money,

with your guitar and singing,

to have all of this,

so you lie,

you lie to your ownself, and you say,

'Everybody else in the world is all haywire, all wrong,

I hate their pretty world, because I can't find a hole to break into it.'

And every breath you're a liar.

Maybe a good guy, and maybe I love you, but still a liar."

Working from cover to try and photograph a resident mink, I've been noticing some interesting beaver behavior. One of the things I noticed is that they will regularly lift their heads out of the water to sniff the air when they sense danger. I also never knew that beavers teeth are so orange.

When I visited Beer in Devon this week I was surprised by the number of other photographers that were "out and about".

 

It looked like a "who can carry the most gear" contest; bags, tripods, big lenses, you name it one of them had it! turns out it was a local camera club outing.

 

The most intriguing thing was the number of "big" lenses - Now let me explain, Beer is a little fishing village in Devon - the main street is only 15 feet (5 meters) wide, What did they think they were going to photograph? The sea was as calm as a mill pond and no sign of boats or birds.

 

This lady had a rather "more reasonable" amount of equipment. Mine on the other hand fitted in my pocket.

"Viver contente com as pequenas coisas; procurar a elegância em vez do luxo, o refinamento em vez da moda; ser digno, não respeitável, e próspero, não rico; estudar muito, pensar com calma, falar com suavidade, agir com honestidade; ouvir as estrelas e os pássaros..."

Caught this on my way home from a bike ride. The cattle do this just about every afternoon that it is warm.

So I wondered how it would look in Infrared...of course.

Big Rock guards the exit from the famed Wall Street section of the Narrows in Zion National Park – a beautiful and welcome sight after hiking down (and directly in) the 16 wandering miles of the Virgin River's North Fork from Chamberlain's Ranch, buried deep in the backcountry of Southern Utah.

 

We started our hike at 6:30am that morning, after riding 1 hour and 20 minutes in a rugged 4x4 off road vehicle up treacherous mountain sides reminiscent of that famous death road in Peru. The driver told us countless stories of times when the hikers had to bail out as the vehicle began to slide off the steep, narrow, slippery mountain road and off the precipice into the forests below. Finally, after a very bumpy and long journey, he dropped us off in the middle of absolutely nowhere, high in the Utah mountains, from which point we would hike all the way back down into Zion National Park, down the North Fork of the Virgin River walking in rapids-filled slot canyons and over boulders the whole way, before finally arriving at the famous Temple of Sinawava exit point and then taking another 45 minute ride back to the park entrance.

 

This is the most long and strenuous of the three ways to hike the Narrows, and to do it, we had to enter and then win a lottery, apply for a wilderness backcountry permit. (Where you give them all your vital information and emergency contacts for Search & Rescue to use if they need to go look for you, and sign a few pages of warnings, notices, educational text and disclaimers.) Then comes a long and expensive shuttle ride to the start of the route.

 

Most people hike bottom-up, which is only 5 miles in water. Hardcore hikers do the 16 mile version top down in two days of 8 miles each with an overnight bivy in the middle. We did the most hardcore version, which is to take on the 16 miles nonstop in a single gruelling day. For those of you thinking 16 miles is easy, this is 16 miles directly in knee to waist deep icy rapids and over large boulders - not on a trail. It was quite the adventure, and I'm absolutely glad we completed this awesome bucket-list route! Many people dream of doing this for years, and I've been blessed to do both top-down and bottom-up in the same two weeks!

 

Then we hiked the even more brutal Subway top-down canyoneering route, the very next morning. That's a story for another day.

Sundae does have a magnificent tongue!
