Shelter Rock, Peak District with some lovely evening winter light hitting it.
The light was ethereal lighting up the land, foreground and it was a great time to capture this scene in the Peak District, in the distance you can see Mother Cap and the tip of Over Owler Tor as we
It was nice that this Ptarmigan stuck around and posed for a picture. Exit Glacier, Alaska, USA, July 2013

Just outside of a small town on the outskirts of London Ontario were these beautiful falls my second cousin and I walked to. I was shocked how crisp he turned out despite the long shutter speed.
Here is my take on the classic Lego Rock Raiders set "4950". It aims to be somewhat of a "UCS"-version. With roughly 3 times for pieces than the original set had.
One important aspect here is that I kept the colors, which means no bluish-grays, only Gray and Light gray, which to some extend limits the amount of slopes available. On the contrary there are parts that came in Dark Gray but never Dark Bluish Gray, so it made for a very interesting build.
I really don't know anything about this photo -- no idea when it was taken, or where ...
*********************************
To the best of my knowledge, most of the photos in this Flickr album were taken by my grandmother, Mabel Yourdon, during the 1920s, 30s, and 40s. Most of them depict scenes of everyday life in mining camps and small towns near the Utah-Colorado border. Some of them show hunting, fishing, and camping trips in unspecified parts of the American west. It appears that a few of them were taken in southern California, when Mabel and her husband Ike traveled out there to visit relatives.
I have no idea what kind of camera Mabel used for these photos, nor what kind of film. There probably wasn’t that much variety available in the 1920s, and she was not a “professional” photographer. So it may have been a Brownie and whatever B/W film Kodak was selling at the time.
My stepfather, Ray Yourdon, was born in 1922; and his older brother, Marvin, was born two years before that. You’ll see photos of Ray and Marvin when they were young boys, when they were in high school, and when they went off to join the Navy and the Marines to fight in World War II.
Somewhere around 2005, I asked Ray if he could tell me the details of some of the photos; where possible, I have included those details in the notes for the photos. Some of the photos obviously evoked pleasant memories, and I heard stories about minor day-to-day events in his life that I had never heard before. But we rarely got through more than a few pictures before he ran out of energy; and so many of the photos have no explanation at all.
At this point, my parents and grandparents are all gone. I have cousins who grew up in the same area where these photos were taken, and one or two of them are still in that area. They may be able to fill in a few of the details; otherwise, you’ll just have to accept these photos as a glimpse of what life was like nearly a hundred years ago ...

Ansel Adams once said...."Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter."
I was thinking of posting a red flower for this years Christmas photo. The other night I happened to be looking through our USA trip photos again and realised that I still had a whole lot of photos that I had previously missed or forgotten about! This photo is one of these - it's red (so kind of goes with the Christmas theme), and it's rock (so is probably more appropriate coming from me anyway!) :)
The colours here are darker than others I've seen of Antelope Canyon - I think because it was winter the light doesn't get right into the canyon and so you end up with these more red/purple hues than orange.
Merry Christmas Everyone!!!
Upper Antelope Canyon, Arizona, USA
This area is in the Sunshine Ski Resort area and is accessible in the summer months by the gondolas. Sunshine is in Banff National Park.
This rock sticks out of the water at Piha. I'm not sure describing it as a rock quite does it justice because it is huge. It's called Lion Rock and is part of an eroded volcano.
Traeth Llyfn on the north Pembrokeshire coast. I couldn't believe how much the foreground rock looks like a crocodile.

Newspaper Rock, which is one of the largest and best-known petroglyph panels in Utah, is located about 12 miles west of U.S. Highway 191 between Monticello and Moab, on the paved road that leads to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. Deep in a red rock canyon, near a stream lined with towering cottonwoods turned yellow with autumn, the panel contains hundreds of figures and shapes believed to be carved over the past 1,500 to 2,000 years.

This clock is filled with gold, silver and precious stones. It's hanging on the wall in the living room and was hand made in Canada by a friend.
it was a heavy rain on that day, unfortunately I was not able to take the scenery of sunset.
In the case of my family, big one pulling a rope is wife.

I photographed this Rock Wren at the exact same location as the Canyon Wren. This is only the second I've seen. Both birds photographed in Grand Forks.
As a Suburban line trains reverses east to put itself away in Metra's yard at Blue Island a train for Joliet tears west under one of at least 5 searchlight cantilevers in a 2 mile stretch. Also seen peeking out from between the twin through trusses is an outbound Illinois Central Electric Blue Island branch train.
This was taken west from Hover Street up the Burlington RR branch to Lyons and the cement plant and toward Golden Ponds when I walked across the street. The status of the cement plant is questionable now. It has quarry and gravel pits itself that are probably all wet today. I was told the water was up to the car's windows, left, yesterday Two rivers converge in front of Broley. Some folks are convinced the river ought to be moved back. Darwin should chime in on that idea. I was sitting at my place and spoiling to get out during a brief respite. I walked over to Hover Street and on down to the bridge at 3rd Avenue to look over the mess. I didn't get a block down the street before catching a couple of shots of the sky before walking all the way down. The bridge was closed the last time. I was told that the water was topping the bridge yesterday. Some of these bridges were recently rebuilt to accommodate the walking/biking path and were thus larger spans and built with recent design concepts. Parks designs saved a lot of the town. They are water parks now.
Good news though: the two gals who camped and were stranded near the Keyhole[www.14ers.com/routemain.php?route=long1&peak=longs+peak] on Long's Peak were apparently safe from the floods, chuckle. I have been up there and it is reasonably safe from flooding. The bread and milk may have been gone from the Estes Safeway when the gals got down! Estes Park was completely cut off with #34 and #36 wrecked and #72, Peak-2-Peak closed. They designated Trail Ridge over the Divide as emergency vehicles only. The Safeway truck was unloading at the time and got stranded so it emptied everything at the Estes store. What a stroke!
Yesterday I almost got knocked over by another storm and I had to run to retrieve my cap. I heard more Chinook helicopters on the way to evac Lyons, Colorado. etc. I woke up to lightning, thunder and a rain storm at 5:30 this morning. I heard Lyons is three islands now. Broley is an island. [http://www.flickr.com/photos/rockypix/sets/72157630174540860/]

That is the name of the rock formation so called by Navajo legend...it has nothing to do with Marvel Comics and Spiderman..lol
The formation is in the easternmost part of the southern canyon in Canyon De Chelly, in Chinle, AZ...roughly half way between Page and Flagstaff AZ. Canyon De Chelly is a forked canyon with a southern and northern canyon, There is a winding asphalt park road that travels up both sides of the 2 canyon rims. A fairly strenuous dirt path starts several miles back and descends to the 'White House' Anasazi ruins, but other than that path, there is no other access to the canyon, except by Navajo guides at the western entrance. There are a number of Anasazi ruins here as well as a colorful historical record. It starts out on level ground near Chinle, and gets progressively deeper as it cuts through the ascending plateau...Spider woman rock is a bit over 800 feet tall...and yes, you can walk right up to the edge of the canyon...there are no safety rails or nets.
