A powerful storm today caused wide spread damage in Ontario. We lost the middle section of a 50 year old willow tree. Luckily it did not fall on the cottage and all family and pets are okay. We are waiting for confirmation if a tornado touched down...it really does not matter the damage is done. The lake looked like an ocean, it was intense.
I entered this image in our National Television Station's weekly contest and I won!
The crowned eagle, also known as the African crowned eagle or the crowned hawk-eagle (Stephanoaetus coronatus) is a large bird of prey found in sub-Saharan Africa. It is considered Africa's most powerful eagle when measured in terms of the weight of its prey items.
Seen at the San Diego Zoo.

The color scarlet is powerful
so treat it well, waste it not
as the world turns scarlet
don’t hide from your fears, face them
make life worthwhile
scarlet can be inspiring to some
or depressing for others
but whatever it may mean to you,
know it has room for change, just like life.

"Mistaya Canyon in Banff National Park is a scenic gem on the Icefields Parkway. Sculpted by the rushing water of the Mistaya River, which originates from Peyto Lake to the southeast, this deep slot canyon features curvy limestone walls and eroded pothole depressions."
This photo captured the mighty Mistaya River, with its swirling currents smoothly eroding the limestone, where it plunged down the canyon.
Always appreciate your kind visit, fave and words, thank you for stopping by! 💕🌷
Jökulsárgljúfur river canyon in Central-North Iceland is a magnificent example of the raw creatve powers of our planet. The entire canyon displays the most stunning structures of columnar basalt at an incredible expense of landscape. It was created by the joint work of Earth folding up an entiremountain range and the Jökulsá á Fjöllum river grinding its path through it. At one ramification of this canyon there is Dettifoss, supposedly Europe's most powerful waterfall and at another end is Selfoss, another superb example of Icelandic waterfalls.
was a rich and powerful ancient Greek city in Mysia.
It is located 26 kilometres (16 mi) from the modern coastline of the Aegean Sea on a promontory on the north side of the river Caicus (modern-day Bakırçay) and northwest of the modern city of Bergama, Turkey.
During the Hellenistic period, it became the capital of the Kingdom of Pergamon in 281–133 BC under the Attalid dynasty, who transformed it into one of the major cultural centres of the Greek world.
Many remains of its monuments can still be seen and especially the masterpiece of the Pergamon Altar. Pergamon was the northernmost of the seven churches of Asia cited in the New Testament Book of Revelation.

Sports fans in some cities get an extra show during night games: kestrels perching on light standards or foul poles, tracking moths and other insects in the powerful stadium light beams and catching these snacks on the wing. Some of their hunting flights have even made it onto TV sports coverage.
As I call upon the Old Ones, I can feel the power begin to course through me. Sparks leap around me, and I grin as the magic grows. Soon I will be all powerful. Soon this demon shall have her revenge.

The Other Side of Town (a photo series)
This photo shows the ghosted remnants of the Standard Oil Company logo clinging to this weathered facade on East Nevada Street in Marshalltown, Iowa. The grand old building stands as a silent eulogy to an era of unbridled Midwestern industrial dominance. However, decades of harsh Iowa weather have slowly bleached away the corporate emblem, transforming a once-ubiquitous mark of economic certainty into a faint, bleeding artifact of the past. Now abandoned, it is a portrait of corporate transience, with the vanishing emblem serving as a powerful visual metaphor for shifting global monopolies and the hollow architecture left in their wake.
About the Project
The Other Side of Town series invites you to closely examine the overlooked- and perhaps even avoided spaces around us. In photographing these scenes, my focus was on the striking tension between these enduring structures and the haunting absence of the people who built, inhabited, and worked within them.
Empty streets, abandoned homes, industrial areas, and neglected structures serve as portraits of culture, mapped through the traces we leave behind. Within these frames, the ordinary and the unsightly acquire an unexpected beauty- revealing powerful visual metaphors for transience, social inequality, and the lingering echo of human presence.
Looking through this series of photos may encourage you to see your own hometown differently. Ultimately, these overlooked surroundings may reveal more about our collective psyche and the unsettled time that we inhabit- maybe more than we realize- or care to admit.

This Male Pileated Woodpecker was busy for over a month hollowing out it's nest cavity in our back yard. The pair had a successful nest and we were able to watch the whole nest cycle from nest excavating to observing the three littles as they were fed from the opening. It was a spring to remember! There is a pair setting up shop this spring in the same tree! (new hole)
I could really brighten everything up a little sitting here at my computer but that really would not remain true to how this is. Constant wind and a powerful raging tide and an atmosphere of light that I have always wanted to capture against the red and white pillar of the warning light....I did remove the sea spray spots though!...Portland Bill, England.

A pint looking strong and powerful and very precariously balanced.......
Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound...
Well, maybe not. But Peregrines can reach speeds of 200 mph (320km/h) when they dive. Fortunately, this youngster was just roaming...

Again this one of the many shots I took while down at the Reservoir near Wernigerode. I've always wanted to capture a shot such as this, that darker sinister sense of imagery.
But that said, it gave me such a sense of the way of the common human consciousness, or should I say lack thereof, of just how ambiguous we have become to the word "Empathy", we are so powerful in togetherness, I know it sounds trite and awkward and cheesy, even downright annoying to hear it, but when we are wowed by an enormous explosion in Libya and forget dozens of people are dead and thousands injured caused no doubt deliberately by a dark force; when we are aware of the plight of the starving Yemenis as well the desperation of the Palestinians, it reminds of a lyric by Chris Rea from the single The Road to Hell...
"And the perverted fear of violence, chokes a smile on ever face"
I truly hope it is paved with good intentions.
Mid week, we're almost there folks and so as always thank you! :)
Dettifoss is Europe's most powerful waterfall. It is only 45 metres tall and 100 metres wide. Its power lies in its volume discharge, with an average flow rate of 193 cubic metres per second. I hope the water's immense power comes through!

The crevalle jack (Caranx hippos), also known as the common jack, black-tailed trevally, couvalli jack, black cavalli, jack crevale or yellow cavalli, is a common species of large marine fish classified within the jack family, Carangidae. The crevalle jack is distributed across the tropical and temperate waters of the Atlantic Ocean, ranging from Nova Scotia, Canada to Uruguay in the west Atlantic and Portugal to Angola in the east Atlantic, including the Mediterranean Sea. It is distinguishable from similar species by its deep body, fin colouration and a host of more detailed anatomical features, including fin ray and lateral line scale counts. It is one of the largest fish in the genus Caranx, growing to a maximum known length of 124 cm and a weight of 32 kg, although is rare at lengths greater than 60 cm. The crevalle jack inhabits both inshore and offshore waters to depths of around 350 m, predominantly over reefs, bays, lagoons and occasionally estuaries. Young fish dispersed north by currents in the eastern Atlantic are known to migrate back to more tropical waters before the onset of winter; however, if the fish fail to migrate, mass mortalities occur as the temperature falls below the species' tolerance limits. The crevalle jack is a powerful, predatory fish, with extensive studies showing the species consumes a variety of small fish, with invertebrates such as prawns, shrimps, crabs, molluscs and cephalopods also of minor importance. 24642
