Little Eris Just learned how to fly and made it up to this Vine, but now the pore little dear dose not know how to get down (^__^)

MY FRIENDS, IN THIS DAYS I AM OFTEN THINKING ON HOW RELATED the events of our personal life and our world ARE ( wars, tragedies, earthquakes here and there, floods, hurricanes etc..)
IT MAKES MY FEEL VERY "SMALL ".
I WISH YOU A THOUGHTFUL WEEK!
The butterfly effect is a metaphor that encapsulates the concept of sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory; namely that small differences in the initial condition of a dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system.
The term "butterfly effect" itself is related to the work of Edward Lorenz, and is based in chaos theory and sensitive dependence on initial conditions, already described in the literature in a particular case of the three-body problem by Henri Poincaré in 1890[1]. He even later proposed that such phenomena could be common, say in meteorology. In 1898[2] Jacques Hadamard noted general divergence of trajectories in spaces of negative curvature, and Pierre Duhem discussed the possible general significance of this in 1908[3]. The idea that one butterfly could eventually have a far-reaching ripple effect on subsequent historic events. [WIKI]
Back to Lumsdale Falls in Matlock for today's upload. As I've mentioned on my previous post from this location, sadly most of the falls were closed off so the opportunities for compositions were not as bountiful but I still love this place.
A tendril on our grapevine earlier in the year. The vine has just had its winter pruning so I am counting the months until I see some growth on it again.
A frosty morning walk to the local farm shop, and I spotted the horse grazing in the field, I took another two steps to align him perfectly between the trees!

The Hopewell Rocks are located in New Brunswick, Canada, within one hour of the nearest airport in Moncton, N.B.
An UNESCO site, the Hopewell Rocks, also called the Flowerpots Rocks or simply The Rocks, are rock formations caused by tidal erosion in The Hopewell Rocks Ocean Tidal Exploration Site in New Brunswick. Carved by melting glaciers, then sculpted by the world's highest and most artistic tides, these stacks stand 40–70 feet tall. They are located on the shores of the upper reaches of the Bay of Fundy at Hopewell Cape near Moncton.
Due to the extreme tidal range of the Bay of Fundy, the base of the formations are covered in water twice a day. The formations consist of dark sedimentary conglomerate and sandstone rock. The large volume of water flowing in to and out of the Bay of Fundy modifies the landscape surrounding it. Each day 160 billion tonnes of seawater flows in and out of the Bay of Fundy during one tide cycle, more than the combined flow of the world’s freshwater rivers! After the retreat of the glaciers in the region following the last ice age, surface water filtering through cracks in the cliff has eroded and separated the formations from the rest of the cliff face. Meanwhile, advancing and retreating tides and the associated waves have eroded the base of the rocks at a faster rate than the tops, resulting in their unusual shapes.
Because the Fundy Bay is funnel-shaped - wide and deep at one end and shallow at the other, tides are pushed increasingly higher as they move up the Bay. By the time they reach "The Rocks" they are over four stories high! Although the tides vary from day to day, the high tide can be as high as 16 metres (52ft) and an average of 10.7 metres (35ft), giving the Hopewell Rocks one of the highest average tides in the world.
We only had barely over an hour's time there because the tide was coming in very fast. Luckily the light was reasonably good.
Sorry folks I'm missing in action today, had to work late and I need to run some errands, hope to catch up later, but it might be tomorrow..........
Birmingham to Waycross daily freight Q689 rolls south through Cordele, Georgia on CSX's Fitzgerald Subdivision. I wanted to see how this angle would work with the outstretched excavator arm, and personally I like it.
We enter a narrow canyon to reach the third waterfall of the day, Kvernufoss. The eye was already accustomed to such beauty. No one remembered the morning's discussion. The day was perfect.
Apologies to anyone that finds this offensive, its would never be my intention to upset anyone.
I have had this on my computer for a few weeks now ( I took it with the other doll one earlier in my stream) unsure if I should post it, but it just seems such a bloomin good subject (creepy or not).
Hope you all continue to talk to me :-(.
