Redsand Fort is one of the Maunsell Forts (named after designer, British Engineer Guy Maunsell) constructed in 1942 as part of Thames Estuary Defence network during World War 11 to deter and report German air raids and prevent attempts to lay mines

There are seven towers in the Redsand group at the mouth of the Thames Estuary. Originally there were 3 sets of these forts but only 2 now remain, Redsand and Shivering Sands . In 2003 Project Redsands was formed to protect and preserve the fort.

Quizás no sea una gran foto ni con la mejor técnica. Sin embargo, la composición me llamó la atención.

Simplicidad en el conjunto, pero con un aire de calma y tranquilidad.

Espero que os guste.

Os deseo una Feliz Navidad

Maybe, it's not a great photo nor with the best technique. However, the composition caught my attention.

Simplicity in the whole, but with an air of calm and tranquility.

I hope you like it.

I wish you a Merry Christmas

Roche ressemblant à une poule et son oeuf d'aprés les bédouins!! Vue sur le Wadi Rum Situé au sud de la Jordanie, à 2 h de Pétra, le Wadi Rum est un désert pas comme les autres, habillé de rouge, de jaune, de blanc qu’embrasent et magnifient des levers et des couchers de soleil d’anthologie. Le sable y dispute l’espace à de magnifiques formations de grès marquées par les rides lointaines des poussées géologiques.

Day 246 saw us leave Sossuvlei, but before leaving a few us took a flight over the dunes and coast. This is Big Daddy viewed from 5,500 feet. It really gives you a sense of scale, as it's the tallest dune in the world at 1,254 feet or 380 metres

Arches National Park is adjacent to the Colorado River, 4 miles (6 km) north of Moab, Utah. More than 2,000 natural sandstone arches are located in the park, it contains the highest density of natural arches in the world.

Rembrandt van Rijn off the ice-littered red beach on Rode Ø, in the channel between the island and Milne Land, Rodefjord, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland. By the way, Rode Ø (Red Island in English) is immikkoortoq aappalattoq in Greenlandic, a very complicated language....try pronouncing that :-)

Nephurus laevissimus

 

I've posted this species not infrequently over the past few months- because in my opinion they are one of the most awesome looking geckos around. However, I never quite felt I did the species justice with previous images. This one was taken on a very cold night in May (14C - cold for this species to be active).

  

These towers were built to help shoot down enemy planes intent on bombing London in the Second World War. They still sit there today, slowly rusting in the mouth of the Thames off the coast of Kent.

 

3 weeks into lockdown and at least another 2 to go ... at least we can still catch some fresh air .. even if it's very chilly fresh air and salt mist.

Arriving at the Confederation Bridge on a late afternoon this past summer, the tide was out and several people were enjoying the warm breezes with a stroll along the shore - while I waited patiently for them to walk out of my frame - until these two stopped, gave me a big smile and a wave - and I pressed the shutter. Wouldn't you?

Raudisandur - Red Sands Beach is one of the most amazing places of the Westfjords in Iceland.

It stretches for 10 km and changes magnificent hues of red, orange, yellow and brown depending on the light conditions and weather.

While beachcombing in Prince Edward Island, this lobster remnant was sitting atop of the red sandy beach. It looked interesting. After exploring it at various angles and focal lengths I ended up with this closeup view.

Rippled, red sand plays canvas to a web of shadow cast by the skeleton of a small shrub in the Klondike Bluffs section of Arches National Park, Utah.

 

During spring break last year, my mother, her husband, my wife, and our two boys sauntered out to Tower Arch in the delightful sun of a warm March afternoon. The boys climbed and jumped from rocks, and the smell of aromatic desert plants combined with a sense of open space and sky to tingle the senses alive. It is good to be alive, to feel the currents.

 

Two days previously, a deranged man walked into our neighborhood grocery store in Boulder and opened fire, murdering 10 innocent people, one a responding officer who courageously risked his life in a vain attempt to protect our community. Despite the beauty of the surroundings, this tragedy overwhelmed us. Apparently this is the price American society is willing to pay, and to keep paying. Massacres like this are rare in almost all other first-world countries.

 

It is good to be alive, and to feel the currents...

Another full frontal backlight photo at the Smuggler's Cove in Shaldon. We collected lots of beach glass on our stroll, even found some rare yellow glass. Cheap treasures!

Arches NP is in eastern Utah, United States. It is adjacent to the Colorado River, 4 miles (6 km) north of Moab, Utah.

 

The park consists of 76,679 acres (119.811 sq mi; 31,031 ha; 310.31 km2) of high desert located on the Colorado Plateau.

The NP lies above an underground evaporite layer or salt bed, which is the main cause of the formation of the arches, spires, balanced rocks, sandstone fins, and eroded monoliths in the area. Arches NP contains the highest density of natural arches in the world, >2,000 are located in the park. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arches_National_Park
