Strong waves forcing through the bottle neck of the north pier and exploding in a wall of spray and surf.
These waves were very powerful and it was quite captivating to watch them smash into these cliffs with great power as the tide was rising but I didn't have much time to watch them.

Amazing how they can turn their heads through 180 degrees to look behind. And the late afternoon/early evening sun catches the eye.
Thanks to Luke Shelley for spotting this one that I had missed.
The peregrine is a large and powerful falcon. It has long, broad, pointed wings and a relatively short tail. It is blue-grey above, with a blackish top of the head and an obvious black 'moustache' that contrasts with its white face. Its breast is finely spotted. It is swift and agile in flight, chasing prey. The strongholds of the breeding birds in the UK are the uplands of the north and west and rocky seacoasts. Peregrines have suffered illegal killing from gamekeepers and landowners, and been a target for egg collectors, but better legal protection and control of pesticides (which indirectly poisoned birds) have helped the population to recover considerably from a low in the 1960s. Some birds, particularly females and juveniles, move away from the uplands in autumn.
After a rainy night, we were alerted by a particular ruckus by the Choughs that frequent our front yard to the presence of this Powerful Owl in a low tree in our yard. Their outrage was well warranted as the owl had the dismembered carcass of one of their family in its talons. We've heard these birds often at our place at night but this is the first time we've seen one on our property. And I have never been closer to one as they are usually in higher trees when I do see them. Very exciting. Strangways, Vic. Dja Dja Wurrung Country
While I was out photographing the auroras at mile 58 of the Windsor Sub, what appeared to be the most powerful burst of energy during my witnessing of the event occurred. Almost directly above me, all of the particles seemed to be concentrated to one entry point in the atmosphere giving the appearance of a rocket. I had to make my tripod as short as it would go, and angle my camera nearly vertical while I laid on the ground. This rocket appearance lasted maybe five minutes before everything went back to being more spread out evenly on the horizon. This was also the only moment of the aurora where I could clearly and vividly see the green hue with my own eyes; whereas, the rest of the time it looked like wisps of thin cloud dancing around. Looking back, I wish I was able to find a way to frame this better with the searchlight, but in the moment I was more worried about getting a photo of this formation before the show moved on.

I was filming flowers today with my 50mm at the Depot and why I looked up I do not know. There glided a bald eagle right over head dead into the sun and past the American Flag flying. I STOOD up in awe and snapped one photo. Cropped allot but........................powerful to me.
Had a little fun with this one. I took the image of the storm and abandoned house separately on two different occasions and created a composite. It really illustrates the mood felt while exploring some of this old relics.
A1 Pacific 60163 powers through Long Preston on her return run to Appleby
60163 Tornado is a mainline steam locomotive built in Darlington, England. Completed in 2008, Tornado was the first such locomotive built in the United Kingdom since Evening Star, the last steam locomotive built by British Railways in 1960. It is the only example of an LNER Peppercorn Class A1 locomotive in existence, the entirety of the original production batch having been scrapped without preservation.
Cet ours noir venait sûrement de se réveiller de son hibernation. Il marchait sur les dernières plaques de neige sous le soleil de printemps à la recherche de quelques jeunes pousses à se mettre sous la dent. Impressionnant animal !
Mysterious, powerful, majestic----the tiger stands tall in our imaginations, the living symbol of strength and power, generally inspiring fear and respect. Tigers have an inborn magnetic personality that attracts people to them like bees to honey.
I decided to try something different with this papercut of the tiger. I divided the image in half, producing a left and a right image. You can display the left tiger papercut alone, space it apart and add the right tiger papercut or mat frame them together giving a unique and complete image of this magnificent creatures head. I hope that you like my latest papercut tiger images.
This picture was taken at San Jorge de Guacamayos Wildlife Sanctuary during the Magic Birding and Photo Circuit . Best birding photography in Latinamerica!
Castle Rising is one of the most architecturally powerful Norman ruins in the country but it also exhibits many ecclesiastical designs.
One of the largest, best preserved and most lavishly decorated keeps in England, Castle Rising near King’s Lynn in Norfolk, has an intriguingly chequered history. Built from 1138 onwards by William d’Albini for his new wife, the widow of Henry I, it has served as a hunting lodge, a royal residence and home to Isabella the mother of Edward III. Implicated in the murder of her husband Edward II, she was exiled here by her son, but lived luxuriously in the apartments she created to the south of the keep.
Castle Rising’s turreted keep boasts ornate Norman architecture and, in its heyday, provided residential accommodation on three levels, with a great hall that spanned both the first and second floors. Although extremely domineering in appearance, the castle is set in a pleasant rural location but hidden from view by 13 acres of massive earthworks. These are topped by curtain walls, of which some fragmented sections remain. At the northern end of the inner bailey are the foundations of an 11th-century Norman chapel and, on the eastern bank, the remains of a rectangular gatehouse.
The castle’s custodian Norman Fahy has investigated its buildings both historically and archaeologically and discovered several interesting anomalies. As it doesn’t appear to defend anything – there are no major roads, crossings or areas of strategic importance nearby (though a painting shows ships in the background, suggesting it was accessible from the sea) – he believes it was once a Romano-British farmstead before becoming a Celtic monastic enclosure.
This theory is backed up by the castle’s many church-like decorations. One of the most elegant is a beautiful decorated frieze on the stairway wall. Unlike Norman castles, it is extremely lavish and replicates the blind arcades more often found in cathedrals and churches. The Norman chevrons around the great hall’s Romanesque doorway, which are repeated on the chancel arch of the chapel and in several nearby churches, continue the theme.
There are many other notable features within the castle, especially in the great hall. The alcove where the lord and his lady sat is clearly visible as are a series of corbel stones. These decoratively carved roof supports depict male figures, one with a hand resting on his chin, the other apparently nursing toothache. Similarly, the main carving above the entrance of the Ante Chapel is a ‘tongue-poker’, a childish way of face-pulling that’s common in many churches of the period.

Stars: always making a dramatic exit!
Webb’s powerful infrared eye has captured never-before-seen detail of Cassiopeia A (Cas A), the remnant of a massive star that exploded about 340 years ago - from our perspective here on Earth. (Despite being 11,000 light-years away, this supernova may have been visible to the naked eye when it took place, something that has not been seen in our galaxy since.)
Let’s dissect the image: The left side of the image (shown in orange) marks where ejected material from the exploded star is ramming into surrounding gas and dust. Within that outer shell is material from the star itself, including elements like oxygen, argon and neon. What’s that green loop on the right? Scientists are still puzzling out its unexpected shape and complexity.
As the youngest known remnant from an exploded, massive star in our galaxy, Cas A offers unique clues into a star’s death. By studying Cas A, Webb astronomers may also learn more about the origins and production of cosmic dust — which forms the elements we’re made of.

Image description: A roughly square image is rotated clockwise about 45 degrees, with solid black in the corners. Within the image is a roughly circular nebula with complex structure. On the circle’s exterior, particularly at the top and left, lie curtains of material glowing orange. Interior to this outer shell lies a ring of mottled filaments of bright pink studded with clumps and knots. At center right, a greenish loop extends from the right side of the ring into the central cavity. Translucent wisps of blue, green and red are throughout the image.
Note: this image is presented in this orientation to match other telescope's images of this object for easier comparison.
