C'est un des derniers témoins du MOB comme chemin de fer respectable qui disparaît.
Contrairement aux chemins de fer rhétiques RhB, le MOB évolue très mal depuis la fin de son époque Styger / Kaller:
- suppression de tout trafic marchandises, en particulier du transport des wagons à voie normale pour le transfert des ordures, pour lequel des tunnels avaient été élargis (!)
- promesses non tenues pour la préservation de matériel (MOB Historique)
- une nouvelle livrée exécrable
- un temps de parcours largement allongé entre Montreux et Zweisimmen.

Femmes à la toilette, femmes à la lessive.
Toujours un peu délicat de prendre ce genre de photos en respectant la pudeur et l'intimité de ces femmes. Celles-ci ne se sont pas montrées opposées à nos prises de vue lorsque nous leur en avons fait la demande.
This juvenile Northern Mockingbird had been at the seed cake feeder for a few minutes when this Red headed Woodpecker decided time was up and it was someone else's turn.
However the Mockingbird didn't seem ready to give up his place so soon, so they sat there, swinging back and forth on the feeder for a few tense seconds before the Mockingbird wised up and flew off.
Shot it at Gangasagar Fair.Gangasagar Mela is the largest fair celebrated in West Bengal (INDIA). This fair is held where the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal form a nexus. Hence the name Gangasagar Mela. This festival is celebrated during January every year and is a major attraction for millions of pilgrims from all over India.
The pilgrims come for a holy dip on Makar Sankranti (last day of the Bengali Month) Negha -Mid January. They take dips in the Ganges and offer water to the Sun God. The dip, as they say, purifies their 'self' and according to them, 'punya' can be obtained thus. When they are done with the ritual obligations, they head towards the Kapilmuni Temple situated nearby, to worship the deity as a mark of respect......

Social Huntsman Spiders or delena cancerides
As far as spiders go this species from the Huntsman Spider family of Spiders are very interesting to me. This one being an adult male has left the colony he was raised in and started a life on his own searching for a female to start his own colony with.
As I have mentioned in a previous post about these they live together and share food with one another. There is a breeding female that can end up getting quite large.
I find the stigma surrounding spiders to be unfortunate. If treated with respect they do not want to bite you.
I enjoy making art with them to show the amazing bits we do not see and hope to bring about positive education by my involvement and interactions with them.
These 2 images of this adult male where made while it was standing on a piece of picture frame glass.
He did not move. I moved my background from one side to the other and he was not fussed about any of that. He would not accept my food offering in the form of a cricket.
Most male spiders once an adult loose interest in food and have reproduction on the mind.

I recently began volunteering as a cam op, for Bison & Prairie Dogs in the grasslands. Thought you'd like to see who I saw today! It's a lot of fun, and I have even more respect for the SNZ cam operators. Thank you for what you do each day. I recognize that it is not very easy!! SNZ cam ops are awesome!!
Just returned from the monkey temple down the road from our place.
Never know what to expect upon arriving and this trip was no different in that respect.
Coming around a corner at the base of the mountain I could hear festive music unlike the other day when all I herd was temple dogs barking and monkeys fighting.
Getting closer I observed workers putting up bleachers and a stage along with canvas shade with plastic chairs common here in Thailand.
Music sounded old Thai and very pleasant to the ears.
Spotted some shade under a big old tree close to where the bananas had been, pulled in and dismounted with camera in hand.
Slowly walked over where some monkeys were devouring a pile of Jack Fruit, found a safe comfortable spot and just started watching.
Seemed to be a number of females young and old, most with new born baby's in tow.
After about 10 minutes I noticed the females were having some kind of dispute among them. Soon it was obvious what was taking place !
Older females were attempting to kidnap the baby's from the younger females, which is only a guess on my part.
Many ideas come into play, sense there was a new Alpha Male ruling the tribe maybe they were trying to kill off the old Alpha's off spring. Maybe they were jealous, maybe I don't really have a clue !
A couple kidnappers ran off into the jungle with a new born never to be seen again. This is real life in the jungle. Brutal at times, Beautiful at others.
This little guy was terrified but reunited with his mom only seconds after this photo, she was only an arms length away and keeping a close eye on him.
Right after arriving the sun broke through the overcast sky and the temperature sky rocketed as did the humidity!
Figured a rain storm was about to take place at any time, so I shot fast.
Didn't take long and a couple of rain drops hit my hat, large like a marble and fast. Stepped back under an over hang of rock and boom sky opened up.
While standing there big vans started pulling in full of Thais here for some type of Buddhist ceremony.
As fast as the rain came it ended but one could see this is only the first of what the sky had in store for us.
Fired off a couple hundred more shots and figured this is good for today as lightning was now starting to make it's presence known in a violent display of noise and light.
Pulled the rain cover over the Think Tank Bag, mounted my ride and headed for home before being caught up in another down pour that was on it's way.
4 clicks from home the sky once again opened up right behind me and started to do it's thing.
Leaned forward, twisted the wick on my scooter and went for it.
Had no choice, rain was right on my heals, falling faster and faster and catching up quickly.
Came flying down the drive way and into the carport just as the whole sky lit up and opened up, close one...;-)
.
Of course WeeNee and The Worm were nice and dry waiting for my return, they both had been stretched out on the steps under cover with out a worry in the world.
For the most part I made it unscathed, slightly wet on the back and top of shoulders, no big deal at all.
Right now it's hard to see the other side of the river it's coming down so hard, monsoon will be here in June.
As for the duct tape, knife, and tape is if I get bit, wrap it and head for help. Knife is for what ever use it needs to be used for.
For the next week or so there will be a number of monkey photos coming, hope your up for it. Thanks in advance ..;-)

Colegio Alemán de Madrid - Neubau Deutsche Schule Madrid
Calle del Monasterio de Guadalupe 7, barrio de Montecarmelo Madrid
Arquitectos: Armand Gruntuch y Almut Grüntuch-Ernst (Grüntuch Ernst Planungsgesellschaft mbH, Berlín) y Lützow7 paisajistas. Coordinación de Proyecto: Bureau Veritas. Equipo de ejecución de las obras: Martin Lange, Britta Echinger, María Cifuentes y Laura Diez. Concurso 2009 obras 2012-15. Promotor: Oficina Federal de Construcción y Planeamiento de la República Federal de Alemania.
El Colegio Alemán de Madrid fue fundado en 1896 y tuvo su primera sede en la carrera de San Jerónimo desde donde se traslada sucesivamente a las calles Espalter, Fortuny y López de Hoyos, antes de ocupar la sede de Concha Espina en 1961.
El nuevo Colegio Alemán en Madrid es la mayor obra civil realizada por el gobierno alemán en el extranjero. El proyecto redactado por el estudio de arquitectura berlinés Grüntuch Ernst asociado con los paisajistas Lützow7 resultó ganador del concurso convocado en 2009 para su construcción. El segundo premio recayó sobre los también alemanes Volker Staab junto con Levin Monsigny y los tercer y cuarto puestos fueron para los equipos formados por Sauerbruch Hutton con Ecosistema Urbano, y Moneo Brock con Fonts Retail respectivamente. Además han recibido mención los estudios de Mansilla y Tuñón, Müller Reimann y Schilling Architekten.
El proyecto se sitúa sobre una parcela, cedida para su uso por un periodo de 75 años a la República Federal Alemana por la Ciudad de Madrid, con superficie aproximada de 34.700 m2 situada en el PAU de Montecarmelo, al norte de la capital madrileña. El programa espacial se optimizó con los requisitos de una arquitectura moderna y pedagógica, y plantea, claramente definidas y zonificadas, una escuela primaria y secundaria para 1500 alumnos con cantina, cafetería, salón de actos con un aforo para 750 plazas, gimnasio-polideportivo multiusos y aparcamiento subterráneo, así como una escuela infantil –kindergarten- para 300 niños, lo que supone una superficie total construida de 27.063 m2. La solución propuesta ha sido valorada por su forma orgánica y su riqueza espacial, así como por su funcionalidad y su adaptación a las condiciones climáticas.
Según comentan sus arquitectos “cada uno de los edificios de los niveles escolares -educación infantil, primaria y secundaria- abrazan sendos patios que reinterpretan de forma contemporánea el ambiente concentrado de un claustro y, al mismo tiempo, con su apertura hacia el paisaje, hacen que sea experimentable la amplitud de la sierra cercana”.
Los arquitectos continúan su explicación sobre su trabajo: “Los edificios desarrollan situaciones espaciales diferenciadas a partir de la conjugación de los requisitos del programa con la situación topográfica del terreno. La fusión de las partes de los edificios se asemeja a una estructura orgánica de gran presencia plástica que parece haber crecido in situ. Todos los espacios comunes -los patios de entrada, el comedor, el salón de actos como sala de conciertos y multiusos con 750 asientos y el polideportivo- enmarcan la explanada delantera y conectan los edificios uno con otro”.
El color claro imperante en el edificio refleja, según el estudio alemán, el paisaje de la sierra madrileña. Algunas zonas del interior del colegio se resaltan con notas de color. En las escaleras, por ejemplo, las ventanas de colores filtran la luz natural y recuerdan, entre otras, a flores luminosas.
El edificio incorpora tecnologías y sistemas constructivos de primera generación habituales en Alemania, en algunos casos nunca antes empleados en obras en España. En muchos aspectos el Nuevo Colegio Alemán es un edificio pionero técnicamente en Madrid. Por otro lado, el diseño ha sido adaptado al clima de Madrid para optimizar sus prestaciones en cuanto a eficiencia energética. El diseño de la fachada permite el paso del sol del invierno pero protege del de verano y en el sótano, un laberinto térmico subterráneo se ocupa de controlar la temperatura del aire que después se empleara en ventilar el edificio. Por la realización prevista de instalaciones con aprovechamiento de energías renovables, que van mucho más allá de la medida habitual, el proyecto fue galardonado con el premio “Arquitectura y Energía” en julio de 2011 por el Ministerio Federal Alemán de Economía.

China, Harbin, City Impressions,… at below -20°C residents during their early morning Taijiquan, respect!!.
Harbin, not only for its special position, but also as the centre of Heilongjiang's political, economic, educational & cultural life, Harbin is described as the pearl beneath the swan's neck. Lying on the east of the Songnen Plain, what is more, Harbin plays a vital role in communications between South & North Asia as well the regions of Europe & the Pacific Ocean.
Harbin was the birthplace of Jin, 1115-1234 & Qing, 1644-1911, Dynasties, the latter of which had a very considerable influence on modern Chinese history.
At the end of the 19th century, Russia built the terminus of the Middle East Railway here. Later, more than 160,000 foreigners from 33 countries migrated to Harbin, promoting the development of a capitalist economy in the city. The economy & culture of Harbin achieved unprecedented prosperity at that time & the city gradually grew into a famous international commercial port. Assimilating external culture, Harbin created its unique & exotic cityscape. The majestic St. Sofia Orthodox Church & Zhongyang Dajie each built in a European style have the effect of bringing you into an 'eastern Moscow'. Even though you are sure to be attracted by various exotic buildings, the Dragon Tower which embodies the wisdom of the Chinese people is a must on your journey.
Besides these rich cultural heritages, Harbin is favoured with beautiful natural scenery. Based on meandering Song Hua River & subject to severe low temperatures in winter, down to -30°C, when I took this Pictures the Temperature varied between -20°C & -26°C but dry air, Harbin boasts a unique ice & snow culture. So, Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
The impressive "Ice & Snow Festival" is the greatest & unusual one in the world, therefor Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
As well the large Siberian Tiger & white tigers research centre, with about 500 tigers & a few other species, does an important work to prevent this species from extinction. The Research centre can be visited, tours in small a bus are available, passing through wide natural, separated, sections, however the focus point is to save the tigers.
