Trumpeter Swans Protecting their cygnet. I had to stumble down a pretty steep rocky embankment. This put the parents on high alert. I realized after getting into position that they were actually paddling towards me. At that same time I realized that there was no easy or quick way to get away if they decided to attack. So I sat very still hoping they would determine that I wasn't a threat. This image was taken as they decided that I wasn't going to be a problem, so they swam away. Whew!

The hills were steep and the mountain had plenty of avalanche protection fencing - just look for the white posts up high.
Iceland also was home to quite a large number of electric cars even though they are not too sure of how long the battery will last in cold conditions. There also seemed to be quite a few charging points even in the small villages like this - Siglufjörður.
Just a few more Iceland photos, then I'll move on to the Sheltalnd Islands leg of my trip.

Appropriately this was seen along the path of the Madagascar Spiny Forest at the los Angeles County Arboretum - spiny indeed ! I believe this is the Madagascar Ocotillo plant.
Valløy or Vallø is a peninsula by the Oslo Fjord in Slagen in Tønsberg municipality in Vestfold. The peninsula is only about 1 km long and half a km wide, and is located at the entrance to the town of Tønsberg from the east. The peninsula is small, but has nevertheless been very important in national and local industrial history. Valløy was located in the former Sem municipality, which was merged with Tønsberg in 1988.
In 1739, Vallø saltworks was established. The plant was in operation until 1860 when it was closed down. Since then came several industrial companies, including Vallø glassworks, Vallø wallpaper factory and from 1899 Scandinavia's first oil refinery. The first master of distillation was the Austrian Frantz Drtina. After only a few years, this company had problems with profitability, and in 1905 a new company, A / S Vallø Oljeraffineri, was started.
In connection with the saltworks, Valløy church was built in 1782. During the Napoleonic Wars, Valløy was equipped in 1808 with a cannon battery and coastal protection to defend the entrance to Tønsberg town and the saltworks. In the 1820s, Valløy became the port of call for Norway's first steamship, the DS «Constitutionen».
On April 24, 1945, the refinery and the island were bombed by British planes in what is later known as the bombing of Vallø. At least 52 Norwegian civilians were killed and an unknown number of German soldiers lost their lives. The refinery, which was run by Esso Norway from 1905, did not come back into operation until the early 1950s. The wallpaper factory was also rebuilt. At most, more than 500 people lived on the peninsula, but after World War II, the number dropped radically.
Valløy school was in use from 1915 to 1942.
Until 1960, oil was refined using sulfuric acid. The waste product acid stream was deposited on the east side of Vallø and has been there until Esso Norge AS in 2015 started work on removing acid stream, bleach soil and other oil residues. [1] It is estimated that around 300,000 tonnes of contaminated mass will be removed by boat or truck. The work, which is carried out by Veidekke Entreprenør AS and the Belgian company Deme Environmental Contractors (DEC). The work was completed in March 2020.
Basically Nazis, but modern, plus ACUs, and based in New York. Highered by Wallstreet companies to protect valuable papers during the outbreak they are led by one Lieutenant Colonel Charles Bliss. Abandoned when the crisis worsened the LMB is fuled by a vengence and goal of retaking New York and establishing a new world order. When compaired to the other factions the LMB is technologically far superior, with many different specialists, Shade Tech, rouge agents, fortifed positions, etc. they certainly know how to fuck your day up.
Probably my favorite faction, but the flip to that is they are the most difficult and annoying, these specialists sure say why, featured we got; Scout, aka another rushing shot-gun asshole who looks like he belongs in the HECU from Half-Life, Rifleman aka M4 homies, and Grenadier, another asshole who loves to disrupt cover and just fuck up your day.

Bridlington's has protected its vessels for many years. Individuals, including children enjoy fishing over it when standing on the bottom level. Individuals search for winkles that stick to the rocks.
Seabirds use it as a resting place and bird photographers enjoy their time there too.
Bridlington is the largest exporter of shell fish port in Europe.,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS, AWARDS AND FOR ANY INVITES.
la protection de ces petites boules jaunes est tres efficace. je ne connais malheureusement pas le nom de cette plante.
the protection of these little yellow balls is very effective. I unfortunately do not know the name of this plant.

A swimming swan and a grey heron at Portrunny Harbour, in Portrunny Townland (County Roscommon, Connacht Province, in west-central Ireland), on a mostly overcast afternoon in early May 2024. The grey heron (Ardea cinerea) is approaching for a landing on the calm water, where the mute swan (Cygnus olor) has been calmly swimming about.
Portrunny (also spelled in English as Portrun, Port Reanna in Irish) is southeast of Roscommon Town. The harbour is a sheltered part of Lough Ree (in Irish, Loch Rí), which is the second-largest of the lakes along the course of the River Shannon (in Irish, Abhainn na Sionainne or an tSionainn) and includes Portrunny Bay. It provides a boat-launching area and picnic facilities as well as a playground.
The lough and its surrounding shores, including bogland, have been designated as an EU Special Area of Conservation, a Special Protection Area, and an official Important Bird and Biodiversity Area (IBA). The location is popular with both migratory and stable water birds.

Another early AM shooting session, experimenting with Arista Ultra 100 shot at box speed. Fairly wide light capture here with somewhat harsh shadows and cloudless sky. This combination doesn't quite pull out the details in the shadows as much as I'd like, despite some very favorable comments about this film with D76. Will likely go back to Xtol in the next round.
