The receding ice and snow at The Beaches from last winter when we had winter.
I thought I'll post again and go on Flickr a bit more before my 'March Madness' begins and I'm not talking about the NCAA one. I guess there should be April Madness too since exams begins as well haha
Have a good Sunday!
Got right in amongst the wves for this one to time a wave coming in along with it receding at the same time, caught just about right
Throwback to last year about now on the shores of the Great Salt Lake. Always interesting shapes as the lake recedes.

I found the sharp delineation between the dark storm clouds and partly clouded sky quite extraordinary.
Instead of the mighty splashes, I thought I'd capture the water on the steps, I really like how it firms all those beautiful ripples.
At the Marin coast in monochrome.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Another rendition of the same subject as the last image. Some intentional camera movement as a first for me.
Looking down the Dove Valley from Hitter Hill. Crowdecote is the village left of centre vaguely discernible in the mist
I was there again this morning for sunrise before going for a very snowy walk on Axe Edge
Receding Snow's still clinging strongly to the high tops of the North Eastern Cairngorms, with massif Cornices still evident in mid May.
This shot was taken on a morning that started out foggy, but the fog receded throughout the morning. This is the last of it before it was gone. It was interesting to me the way that it was still as thick as it was where it remained!
Early summer evening on the lake Ala-Vuotunki.
Kuusamo, Finland.
Sadepilvi väistyy.
Alkukesän ilta Ala-Vuotunkijärvellä.
The second round of 30C temperatures are arriving. Although water levels are receding. Unlike other parts of the UK we are fortunate in North Wales to have had rainfall since the higher temperatures a few weeks ago.
Corbett’s Glen nature park features Allen’s Creek , marsh, open woodlands surrounded by hills deposited as glaciers once covered the area melted and receded.
After a crazy day of rain in the morning, sun in the afternoon and then a storm in the evening, the clouds finally recede revealing this stunning sunset over Bartel Grassland.

looks like it'll be a few more days before we can safely leave the house....frozen sleet covering everything....almost fell twice going out to the streetside mail box......results after 3 hours of melting.
Golden hour on the shore at Boa Vista — a long-exposure seascape from my Atlantic series, capturing the quiet moment when the oceans recede and light, water, and memory fade into calm.
A receding Mars imaged in poor seeing on the 2nd January.
This was and has been my first imaging foray since having a miserable Christmas with CoVid.
Been a bit of struggle to try and recover but glad I managed something, despite the hopeless seeing here with Mars swimming all over the place. This made focusing difficult - particularly the green and blue filters - so often the case!
The weather has been rather poor for with a strong Jetstream being ever present!
Anyway this image shows a just under 97% illuminated Mars. The red planet is now receding quite rapidly from our perspective as we leave it behind in our faster orbit.
The dark "thin" downward projection (projecting from the dark Mare Cimmerium) of the Sinus Gomer is pretty much central. The "Isthmus-Like" Hesperia region is to its right with the light coloured Elysium Plains lying below Sinus Gomer.
Some cloud is visible over the North Polar Region (bottom) and on the left limb.
Imaged with a Celestron C11 and a ZWO 290MM camera, with RGB filters and an Explore Scientific Focal Extender.
Thanks for looking!

Taken at the entrance to Seaton Sluice with Ian Flanagan and Tony Dixon a couple of weeks ago.
We were treat with some lovely pastel tones as the sun set behind us whilst the tide receded.
Athabasca Glacier in Columbia Icefield, Alberta, Canada
A classic glacier has ice on the bottom and the brighter snow and firn, which is the accumulation of older snow, at the top. Glaciers in the Canadian Rockies are losing the all-important firn pack which is difficult to recover or be nourished annually due to higher temperatures in recent years. It leaves the glacier ice exposed. There’s more solar radiation being absorbed by the dark ice sooner and more melt is resulting. It explains why the glacier gets progressively thinner and smaller, faster and faster.
Got myself up and out for what turned out to be a very pleasing sunrise at Covesea, near Losiemouth, this morning. This was taken at the height of the colour and I was able to make use of a rockpool left by the receding tide for a decent reflection of the lighthouse.

ENGLISH
Skogafoss is a waterfall in the south of Iceland at the cliffs of the former coastline. After the coastline had receded seaward (it is now at a distance of about 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) from Skogar village), the former sea cliffs remained. Skogafoss is unique because the waterfall comes directly from two glaciers, Eyjafjallajokull and Myrdalsjokull.
If you climb the 370 steps to the top of Skogafoss waterfall you’ll be rewarded with an awe-inspiring view out over south Iceland’s coastline. This is also the start of the Fimmvorduhals pass, a popular hiking route. Standing at 60 meters (197 ft) tall, the heavy veil of water is impressive and walking close enough envelops visitors in a cloud of spray, sound and refracted light. Due to the amount of spray the waterfall consistently produces, a single or double rainbow is normally visible on sunny days.
Skogafoss waterfall is often included along with Seljalandfoss in the Golden Circle route. It offers great photo opportunities, especially in winter when the Northern Lights dance across the sky.
Is there gold in Skogafoss?
According to legend, a Viking named Thrasi hid his hoarded gold under the falls. Many have tried to find the chest of gold and, as the story goes, a young man almost succeeded. He tied a rope to the chest handle ring and pulled. He only retrieved the ring and returned with it. The ring was later used for the church door at Skogar. The river below the falls holds a large salmon and char population. Don’t be surprise to see fisherman fishing in the river from July – October.

De Skógafoss is een 60 meter hoge en 25 meter brede waterval in het zuiden van IJsland niet ver van het plaatsje Skógar. De Skógá rivier stroomt daar nu over de rand van een klif van de voormalige kustlijn van IJsland. Nadat de kustlijn zich door het omhoogrijzen van IJsland na de laatste ijstijd teruggetrokken had (die ligt nu op een afstand van ongeveer 5 km), bleven de kliffen achter en vormen nu over vele kilometers samen met de er achter liggende bergen de begrenzing tussen het laagland en de hooglanden.
Het verhaal gaat dat Þrasi Þórólfsson, een van de kolonisten van IJsland, een kist met goud achter de waterval verborgen heeft.
Ongeveer 1 kilometer naar het oosten valt de kleinere Kvernufoss waterval in een kloof naar beneden. Deze waterval is via een schapenpaadje te bereiken.
Aan de oostzijde van de waterval gaat een pad omhoog stroomopwaarts langs de rivier. Dat pad is het begin (of eind) van de wandelroute die via de bergpas Fimmvörðuháls tussen de gletsjers Eyjafjallajökull en Mýrdalsjökull naar Þórsmörk voert. Vandaar gaat het verder via de zogenaamde Laugarvegur (warmebronnenweg) naar Landmannalaugar.
An advancing storm, a wave receding to the sea and a long exposure combine to create drama at this iconic Southern Oregon landscape.
