Moonlight casts a magical aura over a well-worn pathway as it twists its way through the wooded landscape of Eclectica. A curious assortment of settings offer something appealing to anyone visiting this fascinating and mystical sim.

All My Links

Another from snowy Storkow, the small forest right next to my apartment is a luxury to have so local, sadly temperatures are set to rise next week and so no more snow for a little while. However, I am glad I got out when I did, this shot for me painted a certain air of mystery; if there is anything I love to do is create atmosphere and whereas the best location is to evoke a sense of fantasy, as if this forest pathway in Winter was to lead to another dimension.

I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)

The fishing village of Alvor is situated on the estuary of the river, Rio Alvor, Portimão.

Thank you for your visits comments and favs! :-)

Glastonbury Tor and the tower of St Michael's church, Somerset

The church was built in the 14th century but, fell into ruin after the last abbot of the abbey was hanged. Before the church a 5th century fort stood on the Tor until it was destroyed by an earthquake in 1275. Info: r-l-p.co.uk/+glastor.html

Through the valley...

The awe inspiring beauty of Yosemite beckons me back... pathway or no pathway! This is a shot from when my son and I took my Crovette through Yosemite (with the top down) in 2012.

Pathway within Commonwealth Park, Parkes, Canberra.

This is a side view of Hopeful Primitive Baptist Church. It is the oldest church in Fayette County Georgia established in 1825. The building is being restored to its former glory and the grounds are a beautiful garden. Here's a link for those interested in the restoration story:

This is a lovely pathway a short way down the street from where I live. I loved the curves, and grass speckled with fallen leaves, and of course, the overhanging trees of fall colors. I just wished those cars weren't there. I would have done anything to get the cars out of the street this day.

I walked across an empty land

I knew the pathway like the back of my hand

I felt the earth beneath my feet

Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone?

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in

I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree

I felt the branches of it looking at me

Is this the place we used to love?

Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone?

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in

I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go

Talk about it somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything

So why don't we go

Somewhere only we know?

Somewhere only we know?

Ah-ah-ah

Thank you all for the comments 🙏💚 I really appreciate 👍

the signs were there, the path was clear...

the trees stretch upward

a long path toward the light

I walk in their shade

a reprise from my forest equinox series

I wasn't sure about this one... it grew over time.

Wish you a good journeys this week :-)

Between trees

The boardwalk at Mono Lake. The milky way showed up from behind the clouds for one very brief moment on the way back to the Jeep. Almost as if it taunted me all night long. Frustrating and rewarding hobby at times.

I don't normally do the "before and after" thing, but just for a change I decided to offer a glimpse of the original... so here you go...

Walk back in time and see over 100 classic cars and vehicles from the 1920s onwards.

Walk back in time and see over 100 classic cars and vehicles from the 1920s onwards. Set in a replica of a 1940s cobbled village street, you can view an assortment of vehicles including motorbikes, cars, vans, military and agricultural vehicles some of which have even been used in films and TV programs, such as ITV's "A Great Welsh Adventure" with Griff Rhys Jones.

We have a Cafe on site, (Cafe Nain), featuring local produce. a play area with outside seating and panoramic views of Snowdonia.

Where the desert wind carves history into stone. The White Canyon of Egypt offers a blindingly beautiful contrast of pristine white sands against rugged, sun-baked cliffs. This hidden geological wonder is a must-add to your Sinai hiking itinerary.

A stunning natural sandstone formation located in the Sinai Peninsula, Egypt. Nestled between Nuweiba and Dahab, this narrow desert gorge is celebrated for its towering, wind-eroded limestone walls and bright, sandy paths. It serves as a prime destination for hiking and desert safaris.

These towering, wind-sculpted sandstone walls feels like stepping onto an entirely different planet.

The central sandy pathway acts as a powerful leading line, drawing the viewer's eye from the bottom of the frame deep into the background.

The composition utilizes a natural "V-shape" framed by the canyon walls. While not perfectly symmetrical, the opposing rock faces balance each other well.

The inclusion of small desert shrubs in the foreground provides a subtle sense of scale, hinting at the massive height of the cliffs.

The image was captured under direct, intense sunlight, creating deep, dark shadows on the left canyon wall and brightly lit surfaces on the right.

The dynamic range is pushed to its limits. The extreme contrast between the shaded crevices and the sun-bleached sand creates a very graphic, high-impact look.

The image relies heavily on a classic warm-versus-cool color contrast. The rich, terracotta oranges and sandy beiges of the rocks vividly contrast against the vibrant cerulean blue sky.

The photograph successfully captures the raw, rugged essence of a desert canyon. It uses a strong perspective that makes the viewer feel as though they are standing right at the entrance of the trail.

The trail requires some scrambling, so sturdy, enclosed footwear with good traction is essential.
