“My recollection of a hundred lovely lakes has given me blessed release from care and worry and the troubled thinking of our modern day. It has been a return to the primitive and the peaceful.”
— Hamlin Garland
Rickety old Minnesota DNR Dock at the Little John Lake Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness Entry Point. Little John is located across the road from McFarland Lake at the end of the Arrowhead Trail.
The Arrowhead Trail runs from Lake Superior at Hovland, Minnesota for about 18 miles into Grand Portage State Forest and the Superior National Forest.

Young Buzzard's are quite cute
Many you see perched around are quite stunning
Then there's this variety...
Almost prehistoric., primitive with an unforgiving aura
Make no mistake he's not your friend!
See what you will...

Edisto Island is one of South Carolina's Sea Islands, the larger part of which lies in Charleston County, with its southern tip in Colleton County
When we visited i would have said the area is very primitive but beautiful.

Bognanco. Italy
The wild high valley of Rio Bognanco, along the trail to Pontimia pass. The snow covered mountains at the horizon are the summits of the range of Pizzo Montalto, 2.704m(8,890ft).
This shot has been taken at an elevation of about 2.200m (7,300ft).
This is near the border with Switzerland, an old trail used by smugglers for more than one hundred years. I walked almost three hours to get here. I met no other human being, just a chamois, a couple of marmots, the rain and, last but not the least, some rays of sun.
I liked the original jpeg, but I loved this shot, so I spent a few minutes in the free version of CaptureOne for Sony cameras, and edited the raw image. Just added a bit of local contrast and pushed up the right of the histogram; for the rest it is the standard conversion style of the software, that is very neutral.
L'alta valle Bognanco, con la catena del Pizzo Montalto; gdal sentiero per il passo di Pontimia, subito dopo i laghi di Campo.Dopo tre ore di cammino solitario, incontrando solo un camoscio e un paio di marmotte, e dopo mezz'ora di pioggia, finalmente qualche raggio di sole
This desert spiny lizard caught many people's attention at the Phoenix Desert Botanical Garden. To guess, I'd say he was about 10 inches (~25cm) from nose to tip of tail. Noticeable. I love the colors some of them get on the belly.

SLOWLY TO MAKE COMMENTS MY FRIEND!! SORRY!!!!II ´M BUSY
The return leg of our day hike in Devil's Garden is more rugged and less populated than the "formal" trail. One must scramble up smooth sandstone walls, over logs, through deep sand and narrow places. This route offers a lot of variety for exploring and photography. I have hiked this trail from both directions and each has its merit. Do it, if you get the chance!
This small wooden flag hangs from a latch, on a shutter, on the Dowling House...Galena's oldest house built in 1826.
Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
Iglesia de San Bartolomé, Almagro, Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha, España.
Comenzó a ser edificada a partir de 1625 sobre una capilla primitiva y provisional. La Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús, hoy conocida como San Bartolomé, debió concluirse en el último tercio del siglo XVIII.
La construcción es de planta de cruz latina con capillas laterales y bóveda sobre el crucero. El alzado posee tribunas entre pilastras de orden corintio formadas por balcones, con una decoración rococó a base de elementos vegetales, rocalla y remarcadas por unas molduras mixtilíneas.
No hay referencia del autor, pero sí de Tomás Núñez de la Barrera, contratado para terminar la construcción.
Construction began in 1625 on the site of a primitive and provisional chapel. The Church of the Society of Jesus, today known as San Bartolomé, must have been completed in the last third of the 18th century.
The building has a Latin cross plan with side chapels and a vault over the transept. The elevation has galleries between Corinthian pillars formed by balconies, with a Rococo decoration based on plant elements, rocaille and highlighted by mixtilinear mouldings.
There is no reference to the author, but there is to Tomás Núñez de la Barrera, who was hired to finish the construction.
A couple of views of a young comrorant that was fishing in the rock pools at Maer Rocks Exmouth. It didn't seem worried by me at all.
A large and conspicuous waterbird, the cormorant has an almost primitive appearance with its long neck making it appear reptilian. It is often seen standing with its wings held out to dry. Regarded by some as black, sinister and greedy, cormorants are supreme fishers which can bring them into conflict with anglers and they have been persecuted in the past. The UK holds internationally important wintering numbers.
Photographed the Arrestra (Primitive Mill) at the Porcupine Historical Park located in the Town of Porcupine in the Township of Whitney in the City of Timmins in Northeastern Ontario Canada
This Arrestra was found near the old Buffalo-Ankerite Mine site and moved to the park in the 1950's.
An arrastra (or arastra) is a primitive mill for grinding and pulverizing (typically) gold or silver ore. Its simplest form is two or more flat-bottomed drag stones placed in a circular pit paved with flat stones, and connected to a center post by a long arm. With a horse, mule or human providing power at the other end of the arm, the stones were dragged slowly around in a circle, crushing the ore. Some arrastras were powered by a water wheel; a few were powered by steam or gasoline engines, and even electricity

Opened 1 Feb 1863 as Primitive Methodist Church.
The transept foundation stone laid 5 Feb 1887 by Rev J G Wright, architect A J Murray. Church opened & named Wright Memorial 3 Jul 1887.
Now a private residence.
Le cloître est la seule partie restante du monastère bénédictin appartenant au complexe de bâtiments de la cathédrale. Ses dimensions sont de 47 x 47 m. L’hypothèse la plus suivie actuellement postule qu’il aurait pris ses lignes architecturales primitives aux environs de la mort de Guillaume II le Bon et aurait été terminé au premières décennies du XIIIe siècle.
Chacun des quatre côtés du cloître est agrémenté de 26 arcades normandes supportées par des colonnettes groupées par deux — par quatre, même, aux angles du cloître —. En tout, il y en a 228. Certaines sont simplement lisses, d'autres présentent des cannelures hélicoïdales ou en zigzag tandis que d'autres sont décorées de mosaïques incrustées relevant du style roman italien, comme au cloître roman de la basilique du Latran à Rome (style cosmatesque) ou la façade du dôme de Lucques.
The cloister is the only remaining part of the Benedictine monastery belonging to the complex of buildings of the cathedral. Its dimensions are 47 x 47 m. The most current hypothesis postulates that he would have taken his primitive architectural lines around the death of William the Good and would have been completed in the first decades of the thirteenth century.
Each of the four sides of the cloister is decorated with 26 Norman arcades supported by small columns grouped by two - by four, even at the corners of the cloister. In all, there are 228. Some are simply smooth, others have helical or zigzag grooves while others are decorated with mosaics inlaid in the Italian Romanesque style, as in the Romanesque cloister of the Lateran basilica to Rome (cosmatesque style) or the facade of the dome of Lucca.
Area di conservazione di Ngorongoro.
La caldera.
Versante destro del cratere, con la foresta sulle pendici interne e la pianura erbosa sul fondo della caldera.
Il cratere appartiene all'area più estesa (circa 8300 chilometri quadrati) della riserva naturale di Ngorongoro (Ngorongoro Conservation Area, o NCA).
La NCA viene amministrata dalla Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, un organismo indipendente dal sistema dei parchi nazionali della Tanzania che amministra l'area in modo diverso; per esempio, all'interno dell'NCA la popolazione dei masai può vivere e spostarsi liberamente (cosa che non avviene in nessun altro parco della Tanzania).
Oltre al cratere omonimo, la riserva di Ngorongoro include due altri crateri minori, Olmoti ed Empakaai, nonché l'importantissimo sito archeologico delle gole dell'Olduvai, conosciute come culla dell'umanità.
Qui furono rinvenuti resti di uomini primitivi risalenti a circa 1.75 milioni di anni fa e svariati fossili di animali dell'età della pietra.
L'intera area della NCA è stata dichiarata patrimonio dell'umanità dall'UNESCO.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
The caldera.
The right side of the crater, with forest on the inner slopes and grassy plains on the floor of the caldera.
The crater is part of the largest area (about 8,300 square kilometers) of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA).
The NCA is administered by the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, an independent body from the Tanzanian national park system that administers the area differently; for example, the Maasai population can live and move freely within the NCA (something that does not happen in any other park in Tanzania).
In addition to the Ngorongoro crater, the Ngorongoro reserve includes two other smaller craters, Olmoti and Empakaai, as well as the very important archaeological site of the Olduvai Gorge, known as the cradle of humanity.
Remains of primitive man dating back to about 1.75 million years ago and several fossils of Stone Age animals were found here.
The entire area of the NCA has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
