I have created a group "Je suis Paris" for the purpose of sympatizing with the people of France. Please post your contributions to that group.

This excavator had a primary purpose as an earth mover, yet in this snow covered image - it looks like it could have been contracted out to dig through the freshly fallen snow.
Looks can be deceiving.
**Captured less than two weeks ago. The snow has since then melted and Spring appears to have arrived.
Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, dipper, bucket and cab on a rotating platform known as the "house". The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. They are a natural progression from the steam shovels and often mistakenly called power shovels. All movement and functions of a hydraulic excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, with hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic motors. Due to the linear actuation of hydraulic cylinders, their mode of operation is fundamentally different from cable-operated excavators which use winches and steel ropes to accomplish the movements.

During August and September, we observed 4 juvenile Piping Plovers in the same general area of the beach. They were usually in the tire tracks or up in the dunes on the dry sand. Nice images but I prefer my shorebirds in the surf or on the wet sand. It was late in the afternoon with about 90 minutes of light left when we came upon our 4 friends. Were where they? In the tire tracks of course. We had to make a decision. Do we wait and hope that the birds move to the water or continue on our way and hope to find something else to work with. We decided to give them 15 minutes. Boy am I glad we waited. They did indeed head to the water and were outrageously cooperative. They made up for all the hours we patiently waited over the summer. We took tons of images but this was my favorite.

This good looking guy took a bath (of course his back was to me), then began to preen his feathers. It's breeding season so he wants to look his best for the gals.

A ring-necked duck floating around Pond 6 with purpose. A poorly named duck. In just the right light you can see a faint chestnut-colored ring around the base of its neck. Not a great mark to identify this species in the field, but according the the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, the ring around the neck stood out to a 19th century biologist that described the species using dead specimens. I've never seen a dead one, so I'll have to take their word for it.
My purpose for this shot was to make it look like a drone picture, and I think I went pretty close to it!
I absolutely adore this spot, by far my favourite view from Passo del Lupo.
If you go to Marche I strongly suggest you to visit this amazing place.

Para Crazy Tuesday Theme: "New purposes" 7DWF <3
Life is a Rainbow: Color Gris
So we booked a trip to Fairbanks Alaska really for one purpose, the Northern Lights. All the tourist info said if you go for three nights you have a 90% chance of seeing the lights. So we booked 4 days. But there are some things you just cannot control. We got there and the KP was only 2, and the sky was very overcast, in fact, it was snowing good and hard most of the time we were there. We tried not to be sullen, or downtrodden. In fact, I think we did a good job filling the days with other fun things to do. You have seen some of that in my other postings.
One such outing was the Chena Hot Springs. We soaked, we had fun. As we were leaving, the sky's opened up just a little and we could see stars. We could see no green, but I thought, heck, let me get out the camera and see if maybe the sensor could see green. I turned on the rear display and there it was, some green. Oh man. Frenzy. Get the tripods, get our coats, get the gloves (it was 18 degrees). We start to scramble. Very three stooges I must say. We know this will not last.
I am not trying to discount the image, but we had no control over where we were. I had 7 great locations scouted out with killer foregrounds, but when the sky won't play, you can't control where you are. So here we are in the parking lot of the Hot Springs. We tried to make the best of it. We ended up with about 45 minutes of clear sky the whole time we were there. The Aurora was not doing anything fun, no ribbons, no various colors, no dancing of any kind. We did try to control the foreground by driving down the road a bit, after the panic in the parking lot. We did grab a few more frames down the road, but the Aurora was stronger here.
I joked with Hilton Chen one time- we agreed that anytime you put blood, sweat and tears into an image, even if its a bit of a dog you are going to share it. So this image is not one of the great Aurora images on the Web. Maybe next time. But it is one I feel I earned, so here it is. Enjoy it darn you, enjoy it.
Just outside of town is this newly abandoned place. I should probably stop for a better shot but it is on a fairly busy road.

Southerness Lighthouse, near Dumfries. This was only the third purpose-built Scottish lighthouse back in 1749, but Southerness Lighthouse is still standing today. Southerness is a beautiful part of Dumfries & Galloway to visit.

Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers are mostly black and white with boldly patterned faces. Both sexes have red foreheads, and males also have red throats. Look for a long white stripe along the folded wing. Bold black-and-white stripes curve from the face toward a black chest shield and white or yellowish underparts.

The purpose of my drive yesterday was to locate the Northfield Tunnel of the defunct New York Ontario and Western Railroad. I believe when I took the picture I was practically above the portal. Perhaps just past this ridge. But my wounded feet and legs and my arthritic knees ruled out any bushwhacking. In looking for the tunnel I spotted this 1930's era car bodies rusting away.

Here is an interesting looking structure that serves no purpose that I could determine. If it were floating in the water and the bricks were wood then, perhaps, there might be some hope that it were a type of ship if those four thingies on the top could be raised up into a position to catch the wind. But as it stands, it is a mystery.

Today’s post is an old one but a good one. The location is smith rock state park, and the image was taken during our second visit. Unlike our first time there, the clouds never caught on the color as I hoped, but there was still some color by the horizon to make the image interesting. The main challenge at this location was that the light was behind the rock formations, and I had to get to the tallest vantage point to include some color in the sky. Thankfully, I found a viewpoint without the railings obscuring the foreground.
🇭🇷 Nevidljivi istraživači jutra
Dok se dan tek razvlači preko travnatih polja, dok rosa još šuti na vrhovima vlati, pojavljuju se oni koje većina nikada ne vidi.
Mali putnici, tihi istraživači, hodaju svijetom koji je za njih džungla, a za nas samo livada.
Njegovo putovanje možda traje nekoliko centimetara, ali nosi istu upornost i svrhu kao i naše – možda čak i više tišine i mudrosti.
U tom tihom trenutku, kroz objektiv, imao sam sreću uhvatiti jedno od tih malih bića.
Ne kao objekt. Nego kao priču.
🌱 Mali svijet, velika priča.

🇬🇧 Invisible explorers of the morning
As the day begins to stretch across grassy fields, while the dew still lingers silently on the blades, the ones most never see begin their journey.
Small travellers, silent explorers, walking through a world that is a jungle to them — and just a meadow to us.
Their path may span only a few centimeters, but carries the same determination and purpose as ours — perhaps even more quiet wisdom.
In that silent moment, through the lens, I was lucky to witness one of these tiny beings.
Not as an object. But as a story.
🌱 Small world, big story.

🇩🇪 Unsichtbare Entdecker des Morgens
Während sich der Tag langsam über die Gräser legt und der Tau noch leise auf den Halmen ruht, treten sie in Erscheinung – die, die fast niemand je bemerkt.
Kleine Reisende, stille Entdecker, unterwegs in einer Welt, die für sie ein Dschungel ist – für uns nur eine Wiese.
Ihr Weg mag nur wenige Zentimeter lang sein, doch er trägt dieselbe Entschlossenheit und Bedeutung wie unsere – vielleicht sogar mehr stille Weisheit.
In diesem ruhigen Moment hatte ich durch das Objektiv das Glück, eines dieser kleinen Wesen zu entdecken.
Nicht als Objekt. Sondern als Geschichte.
🌱 Kleine Welt, große Geschichte.

🇫🇷 Explorateurs invisibles du matin
Alors que le jour s’étire doucement sur les champs d’herbe, que la rosée murmure encore sur les brins, apparaissent ceux que l’on ne voit presque jamais.
Petits voyageurs, explorateurs silencieux, avançant dans un monde qui est pour eux une jungle – pour nous, juste une prairie.
Leur trajet ne mesure que quelques centimètres, mais porte la même volonté et la même signification que les nôtres – avec peut-être encore plus de sagesse silencieuse.
Dans cet instant de calme, à travers l’objectif, j’ai eu la chance de croiser l’un de ces êtres minuscules.
Non pas comme un objet. Mais comme une histoire.
🌱 Petit monde, grande histoire.

🇪🇸 Exploradores invisibles de la mañana
Mientras el día se desliza por los campos de hierba y el rocío aún calla sobre las hojas, aparecen los que casi nadie ve.
Pequeños viajeros, exploradores silenciosos, caminando por un mundo que para ellos es una jungla — para nosotros, solo un prado.
Su recorrido tal vez solo mida unos centímetros, pero encierra la misma determinación y propósito que el nuestro — quizás con más sabiduría silenciosa.
En ese instante callado, a través del objetivo, tuve la suerte de encontrar a uno de estos pequeños seres.
No como un objeto. Sino como una historia.
🌱 Pequeño mundo, gran historia.

🇮🇹 Esploratori invisibili del mattino
Mentre il giorno si stende lentamente sui campi erbosi e la rugiada tace ancora sulle foglie, compaiono quelli che quasi nessuno nota.
Piccoli viaggiatori, esploratori silenziosi, che attraversano un mondo che per loro è una giungla — per noi, solo un prato.
Il loro cammino misura forse solo pochi centimetri, ma racchiude la stessa determinazione e senso del nostro — forse con ancora più saggezza silenziosa.
In quel momento di quiete, attraverso l’obiettivo, ho avuto la fortuna di incontrarne uno.
Non come un oggetto. Ma come una storia.
🌱 Piccolo mondo, grande storia.
