Completed in 1977 the New River Bridge is the 5th highest vehicular bridge in the world. It's been over 10 years since I last saw her, as I spent a lot of time here in the past. She has aged well and we were lucky to get to see her as the fog lifted the day we passed through. It was as if the gorge was giving me one last glimpse as we pass by on our way to our next destination via www.playeattravel.com/

Two black tailed godwits in a fight and luckily I was around to get tis shot :)

This place is called 't Otterbos, In spring time it is a beautiful place, 2016.

 

It is a place of wet lands just outside the dike of polder De Wijde Wormer at a location almost hardly to reach. If you know the start of the dead end road, than you will find it by car. It is a place of wet lands just outside the dike of polder De Wijde Wormer at a location almost hardly to reach. But for cyclist it is easy now, because it is part of a whole network of cycling paths in the area Waterland-Zaanstreek.

 

Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments.

Herdwick sheep are almost unique to the Lake District. They tend to be territorial and so do not stray across the open ranges of mountains when grazing outside of the walled enclosures of the lower pastures.

I have rarely seen Otago Harbour this still. On this morning the water became like a canvas reflecting every detail in the sky.

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa

 

"You can almost hear her gasp!

 

A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....

 

Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.

 

But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.

 

“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”

 

This was a pretty awesome sight to see, the sun's rays across the sky as the storm clouds approach via www.playeattravel.com/

A ratos vivo,

a ratos vuelo.

A ratos pienso,

y a ratos siento.

Hay ratos que olvido

y me siento muerto.

A ratos veo el sol,

y a ratos me veo ciego.

A ratos creo

y soy testigo

que sólo a ratos

tengo presente.

El resto son sólo

ratos perdidos

de tiempo ausente.

  

María Ostiz - Cigarra canta cigarra.

Sirva de homenaje a ese gran jugador que fué Zoco (Real Madrid) y que se dedicó a jugar y hacerlo bien, en el campo y en la vida. Su mujer es quien canta.

Whitby Abbey on a cloudy day...and proof that distortion adjustments can be used and abused :)

Taken from a slowly moving vehicle, nowhere to stop and have to take the shots hoping I'll catch a good one. Better than I thought. Btw , I'm not the driver .

Spotted this big bull elk sitting in the shade on our last drive through the park. Watched him for quite awhile but he never stood up.

 

As always, thanks so much for stopping by.

On a misty, frosty morning.

Boxtel is a small town, but its big church shows that it was an important place once. Just outside the town you'll find a park in which lies this castle, Kasteel Stapelen. The entire complex was given a new look in early neo-Gothic style in 1857-1858, to fit the then popular ideas about what a medieval castle should look like. Towers were heightened, the facade of the chapel was renewed and countless battlements were added to places where there never had been any. Since 1915 the castle has been used as a monastery. In the Middle Ages a miracle occured here which is still celebrated each year with a big procession.

This is another image from the same morning photoshoot. A slightly different time, slightly different palette.

 

I had to walk off of the golf course because of back pain so I grabbed my camera and went for a walk. Watching these little goslings more than made up for missing out on my golf.

Cheerful children playing on a road just outside Sapa.

Image is a panorama. It ended up being 186 Magapixels. had to resized it down here for Flickr as it would not upload. In the original image you can see clear to the Sheppy Bridge.

 

Has some great looking clouds in this image that later turned a bright pink. Unfortunately I was making a timelapse of the rising moon and didn't notice in time to photograph the pink clouds fully. but did manage to take a quick shot just as all the pink was fading from the sky.
