The most popular outdoor spa in Iceland is the Blue Lagoon, which is actually man-made. It uses mineral-rich water from the nearby geothermal power plants where superheated water from far underground is used to run turbines that generate electricity. The milky blue shade colour comes from the water's high silica content and the temperature is just right around 38oC (100oF).

A Ford Popular, stripped to the frame,
Was tuned up for speed and for fame.
With chrome shining bright,
It took off in flight—
A legend in hot rodder’s game!
In July 1885, three teenage Hawaiian princes took a break from their boarding school, St. Mathew's Hall in San Mateo, and came to cool off in Santa Cruz, California. There, David Kawānanakoa, Edward Keliʻiahonui and Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole surfed the mouth of the San Lorenzo River on custom-shaped redwood boards, according to surf historians Kim Stoner and Geoff Dunn. In 1890, the pioneer in agricultural education John Wrightson reputedly became the first British surfer when instructed by two Hawaiian students at his college.
George Freeth (1883–1919) is often credited as being the "Father of Modern Surfing". He is thought to have been the first modern surfer.
In 1907, the eclectic interests of the land baron Henry E. Huntington brought surfing to the California coast. While on vacation, Huntington had seen Hawaiian boys surfing the island waves. Looking for a way to entice visitors to the area of Redondo Beach, where he had heavily invested in real estate, he hired a young Hawaiian to ride surfboards. George Freeth decided to revive the art of surfing, but had little success with the huge 500 cm (16 ft) hardwood boards that were popular at that time. When he cut them in half to make them more manageable, he created the original "Long board", which made him the talk of the islands. To the delight of visitors, Freeth exhibited his surfing skills twice a day in front of the Hotel Redondo. Another native Hawaiian, Duke Kahanamoku, spread surfing to both the U.S. and Australia, riding the waves after displaying the swimming prowess that won him Olympic gold medals in 1912 and 1920.
In 1975, a professional tour started. That year Margo Oberg became the first female professional surfer.
From the balmy shores of San Diego to the chilly waters of Northern California, the Golden State’s coastline offers the allure of perfect waves for every type of surfer. In August 2018, the state assembly voted overwhelmingly to enshrine surfing as California’s official sport. A new holiday was even created to commemorate the cowabunga-inspired moment—September 20 is California Surfing Day.

The sparrows have been going crazy lately at the bird bath, which needs to be refilled regularly! But with the cool nights and autumn upon us, it will soon enough have to be shut down for the season.

This popular village shop is on the corner of the High Street that runs through the pretty little village of Cley next the Sea, on the North Norfolk coast. We have often called in there on our various trips to Norfolk. The building is constructed in the traditional Norfolk way, using flints and brick. The lack of building stone in the region has led to the extensive use of flint in Norfolk villages.
This Common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) seems very popular with these tiny bees. How many can you count? The 'flower spikes' of this ragweed are exceedingly long and offer pleasant arc for landing locations. My Ozark wildflower book says ragweed seeds are found in several archaelogical sites and are thought to have been cultivated for food.

When I took this shot, almost 2 years ago, while on a ferry to Mykonos, I could never imagine it would end up in the April 2009 issue of "POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY" magazine, as well as on their site...
www.popphoto.com/popularphotographyfeatures/5750/photogra...
However, this is exactly what happened and I am particularly grateful to the "POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY" people who approached me and asked for the rights to publication.
I might only add this is a profile I am particularly attached to, since I have also used it as foundation for my "Breast Cancer Awareness" message I (re)upload every October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Thank you FLICKR for giving all of us the kind of exposure and visibility that landed this profile in a prestigious magazine, thank you POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHY for the honor, thank you all!..

A late comment: did anyone notice that there's not a thousand tourists in this picture? But it was at the height of Mardi Gras. I caught it at a good moment.

A masterpiece of popular architecture, the Carrasqueira pier is unique in Europe, built on seemingly fragile irregular wooden stakes of the 1950s and 1960s, which serve as mooring for the fishing boats that lay there, sometimes buried in the mud or in the water, according to the tides.
Despite the degradation, the dock continues to fulfill the mission for which it was built: allow access to boats of fishermen, even during the low seas.
Integrated into the nature reserve of the Sado Estuary, the riverside village preserves an impressive network of staking that stretches hundreds of meters along the muddy estuaries of the river Sado.
A tourist attraction point, it is one of the most visited places in the municipality of Alcácer do Sal and one of the most famous spot for landscape photographers in Portugal.

The Allman Brothers were a very popular band during the 1970's pioneers in a musical sub genre called "Southern Rock" which is a blending of country and rock elements. It's been so long ago I can't remember the exact year but I do remember it was at the Capital Theater. This was a very blurred scanned film shot that just sat in my computer drives for years but I ran it through Topaz Sharpen AI and then through KREA AI enhancement and then ran the JPEG image through both programs again to give you all this image brought back from the dead to speck and here is a link to YouTube video of one of their concerts from close to the time I saw them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Hb9aNgivdg&ab_channel=Allman...
