I suggest my fiends you watch this video in the link bellow starring the students of the Veria School for Children with Special Needs.... it is called " the song of colors"
For my foreign friends... it goes like this more or less....
"I'll make on a piece of paper
a big drawing
so to make fit at once
every beauty in this world...
I'll also draw a sky
with a shining sun
and birds flying
in fancy shiny colors...
Red, yellow and blue
green and brown
white, black, pink and orange
light-blue, purple and gray....
I'll draw a cool sea
with little boats and sails
and children on the beach
playing together joyfully...
And on the mountains up high
I'll draw rivers, ponds and villages
and small houses in a row
with fancy shiny colors....
Red, yellow and blue
green and brown
white, black, pink and orange
light-blue, purple and gray...."
Although clay pots found buried in the area suggest that people lived in clusters in the area as early as 400 B.C., it was not until the Spaniards reconquered Castilla from Arab occupation in the Fourteenth Century that the village began to grow, and dukes and nobles built residences there. The village is full of large houses where nobles lived during the middle ages. Until recently, many were derilict, but in the past 25 years houses, streets and the castle itself have been restored.
We came in through the one and only gate that gives entrance to this lovely city. First totally in shock because there happened to be a gathering of the Hell's Angels in town. Luckily we arrived at the end of the day after a long walk, they left about an half hour later. We didn't see them leaving, we heard them. The silence after that roaring...

On the waterfront the rain
Is pouring in my heart
Here the memories come in waves
Raking in the lost and found of years
And though I’d like to laugh
At all the things that led me on
Somehow the stigma still remains
My thanks to Nick and Linda suggesting that I may find it interesting to visit to see and photograph
An amazing tree. Known locally as the Ficus de Los Mazones, it’s a centuries-old tree recognised for its monumental size and ecological importance Located in Almoradí, within the Vega Baja del Segura región.The Fig Tree is protected by local authorities as part of Spain’s catalog of singular or monumental trees.It has become a symbol of the Almoradí countryside (huerta), representing the region’s deep agricultural roots and connection to the land.The tree was planted over 100 years ago on the large estate owned by the Mazones family hense its name today.

i prefer the colour version, but thought i would upload both anyway. I already have quite a few shots of the same place so sorry for the repeats but it makes for effective images!
Strange that this car has got an 'A' prefix yet year of manufacture is 1987. DVLA error? Nothing to suggest it has a private plate.
Like the name suggests, the spring harvestman (Rilaena triangularis) is an early species in the season. In Swedish it is called "tidiglocke" which lilterally means "early harvestman".
This one didn't get the memo though as this shot from fire-damaged pine in the Paradiset nature reserve was taken on the 22nd of June.
Suggested musical accompaniment:
"Dream a Little Dream of Me" performed by the Beautiful South:

Song written in 1931 with music by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt and lyrics by Gus Kahn.
"Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singing in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams, till sunbeams find you
Gotta keep dreaming leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
You gotta make me a promise, promise to me
You'll dream, dream a little of me"
Taken in La Ceja, Colombia; Central Andes; 2.300 meters above sea level.
Endemic to Colombia, as its name would suggest, and the only chachalaca within its now relatively limited range in the central (Cauca and Magdalena) valleys of the country. It is found in both humid and deciduous forests, but the species’ range and population are both almost certainly declining, and it survives only in pockets.

Yuuhidai (Sunset) Point - As the name suggests, it is a famous spot in the setting sun.
Located in the corner of Shiretoko National Campsite, it is also popular as a date point for young travelers. The setting sun is beautiful in the spring and autumn when the setting sun creates a vermilion streak on the sea surface, and the winter when the sea surface covered with drift ice becomes golden.

Oronko岩（日文：オロンコ岩）是位於日本北海道斜里町宇登呂地區宇登呂港（日語：ウトロ港）旁，高度約60公尺的巨型岩石。岩石的頂部有一平坦的區域，可360度俯瞰包括宇登呂港和市區的週邊景色。[1]為知床八景（日語：知床八景）之一
岩石目前並沒有中文名稱，Oronko的名稱來自阿伊努語o-rok-watara，意思是「座落在那的岩石」，由於發音與庫頁島的原住民鄂羅克人的發音接近，也被認為可能與其有關連。
“Records suggest that Icelanders have been bathing in their abundant, natural supplies of geothermal water since the 10th century. Poet, politician and historian Snorri Sturluson had one of the country’s first-ever hot tubs back in the 1200s. You can still see ‘Snorralaug’ at Reykholt in West Iceland. Nowadays, there are also landscaped lagoons (like the Blue Lagoon and Myvatn Nature Baths), infinity pools (such as the Sky Lagoon and Forest Lagoon), contemporary spas like Krauma, and even floating pools, such as Vok Baths. All of them are fed by geothermal water and are mostly designed for relaxation, wellbeing and gentle poaching, rather than notching up laps in a traditional swimming pool. But if you do want a proper swim, Iceland also has over 120 public swimming pools, located in nearly every town around the country.”

The White Rumped Mannikin is sometimes called a White Rumped Munia and they belong to the family of Waxbill Finches. The White Rumped Mannikins like open woodland, grassland and scrub and are also able to adapt to agricultural land use. These birds feed mainly on seeds and sometimes algae and it has been suggested that they obtain protein for their diet from the algae. They like moving through the undergrowth in groups but sometimes on their own. The nest they build are large domed grass structure in a tree or a bush but, they have been known to use other birds abandoned nests, and they lay anything from three to eight white eggs.
She settled in right over the center, like she was hoping to blend in by becoming part of the hydrangea and not be noticed. Good luck!

As the title suggests, this is ice observed during the evening, when sun was going down.
Yes, Just big blocks of ice. With zero visibility behind, due to a thick blanket of fog.
Shot taken on June 7th 2012 in the Nivolet plateau (2.612 m), Gran Paradiso National Park (Italy).
I think that ice and very compact snow are elements truly deserving a photo! As in this case...
In fact, this presence is fundamental for survival at high altitude. It means water! Both for drinking and cooking!

Perfetta coniugazione di elementi medievali e rinascimentali il castello è stato costruito dal nobile Pier Maria Rossi tra il 1448 e il 1460 per l’amante Bianca Pellegrini d’Arluno, su un’altura che domina la vallata del torrente Parma: questa posizione, ora suggestivamente panoramica, era un tempo strategica per garantire il controllo sul territorio.
Pier Maria Rossi, conte di Berceto, marchese di San Secondo, è certamente uno dei personaggi più interessanti del ‘400, spesso paragonato a Lorenzo il Magnifico. Alle doti del valente condottiero militare unisce quelle di fine umanista e colto intellettuale, ama la musica e la poesia, conosce le scienze astrologiche, matematiche ed architettoniche. Torrechiara compare nei primi documenti del XI sec. col nome di ‘Torclara’, che deriverebbe da Torcularia per la significativa presenza di ulivi nel territori fin dai tempi antichi e pertanto di torchi per la produzione di olio. La presenza di un edificio con finalità difensiva di proprietà degli Scorza in questa località è segnalata in un’ordinanza del 1259 del Podestà di Parma che ne stabilisce la demolizione. Il documento lo definisce “domum”, con ogni probabilità una semplice ‘casa forte’ per il presidio del territorio.
Sulle rovine di quest’architettura (le cui vestigia sono oggi ancora visibili in una piccola breccia di una sala interna, detta del Pergolato) il conte Pier Maria Rossi (Berceto, 25 marzo 1413 – Torrechiara, 2 settembre 1482) dal 1448 al 1460 fa costruire il Castello di Torrechiara, con le caratteristiche e nelle sostanziali forme attuali, soprattutto il cuore della struttura ovvero la parte residenziale.
Il Magnifico, per anni fedele uomo d’arme alla corte Sforzesca di Milano, ottenuta l’investitura feudale del castello da parte di Galeazzo Maria Sforza nel 1480, paga la propria ribellione al successivo colpo di stato di Ludovico Sforza detto il Moro subendo reiterati attacchi armati da parte delle truppe lombarde che condurranno alla dispersione di tutti i possedimenti dei Rossi nel parmense. Incapace di trattare la resa, stanco e malato Pier Maria si spegne nel 1482 e la resa finale dell’amata rocca di Torrechiara arriverà un anno dopo. Il maniero, che nelle volontà testamentarie del Rossi doveva andare in eredità al figlio naturale Ottaviano, avuto con Bianca Pellegrini, è oggetto di aspre dispute spartitorie e compravendite: dal 1499 si avvicendano diversi proprietari ad iniziare dal maresciallo del re di Francia Pietro di Rohan, che lo vende ai Pallavicino. A metà del ‘500 Luisa Pallavincino lo porta in dote al marito Sforza Sforza, conte di Santa Fiora. Ospiti d’onore della signorile dimora furono Alessandro Farnese e il figlio Ranuccio, che nella romantica Camera d’Oro trascorre la sua luna di miele con la tredicenne consorte Margherita Aldobrandini. In questo periodo vengono realizzati i grandi cicli affrescati cinquecenteschi ad opera del pittore Cersare Baglione e vengono aperte due panoramiche logge in corrispondenza delle due torri rivolte verso il torrente: torre della Camera d’Oro e torre di San Nicomede. In tempi recenti il castello passa agli Sforza-Cesarini e Pietro Cacciaguerra che lo cede nel 1912 allo Stato, dopo averlo spogliato dei preziosi arredi, sopravvissuti alle razzie dei proprietari precedenti.

A suggested crop of my previous image. What is your opinion on this version. Granted my composition is off in the original but that's ok, I'm rusty after a long dark winter!!! What ya think, be gentle!
Pittoresca domus de janas scavata in un masso granitico, riproducente un teschio umano. Si trova in un luogo molto suggestivo, in mezzo a scenografiche formazioni rocciose dalle forme e dai profili bizzarri e impressionanti.
Il nome che la fantasia popolare ha voluto dare a questo ipogeo del neolitico (la testa del morto) ben si addice all'espressione tra il beffardo e il maligno che la luce del sole gli conferisce, cambiandola continuamente a seconda dell'ora del giorno.

As the name suggests, this square is well known for its many museums. Museums with ringing names, too: Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh museum, Stedelijk Museum, they can all be found around this square.
Museum Square or Museumplein is also the biggest square in Amsterdam. It is likely to make you think of a park: its biggest surface is given over to a field of grass where people have picnics in summer. It is equally attractive in winter, when the pond in front of Rijksmuseum is transformed into an ice-skating rink.

YOU MAY WISH TO ENLARGE THE SCENE TO BETTER SEE THE DETAILS.. i FULLY SUGGEST YOU TO DO SO.
Moraine Lake is a glacially fed lake in Banff National Park, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) outside the Village of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. It is situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, at an elevation of approximately 6,183 feet (1,885 m). The lake has a surface area of 50 hectares (120 acres).
The lake, is fed throughout the glaciars, and does not reach its crest until mid to late June. When it is full, it reflects a spectacular distinctive shade of blue. The colour is due to the refraction of light off the rock flour being deposited in the lake on a continuous basis.
Its waters are the most amazing colour, a vivid shade of turquoise that changes in intensity through the summer as the glaciers melt. Set in the rugged Valley of the Ten Peaks, Moraine Lake is surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and rock piles, creating a scene so stunning it almost seems unreal. Sit lakeside and absorb the sights and pure mountain air, or explore further by canoeing and hiking. It’s an iconically jaw-dropping place that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
These shot has been taken from te top of Rockpile Trail, an easy and short path switchbacking along the back of the moraine to the top of the natural dam. The sightseeing from the top is known as the “Twenty Dollar View”, as the scene featured on the back of Canadian twenty dollar bills issued between 1969 and 1979.
It merits the walk

LAGO MARAINE, la belleza, localizado en el Banff National Parck, Alberta , Canada
El lago Moraine es un lago de montaña localizado en el Parque Nacional Banff, en Alberta, Canadá. Más concretamente, se encuentra en el valle de los Diez Picos (en inglés: Valley of the Ten Peaks), a unos 14 kilómetros de distancia de la localidad de Lago Louise y a una altitud de unos 1884 metros sobre el nivel del mar. Moraine quiere decir morrena en inglés.
El lago Moraine, con una superficie total de medio kilómetro cuadrado, es alimentado gracias a un glaciar. Por tanto, alcanza su nivel máximo durante la segunda mitad del mes de junio. Su llamativo color azul, característico de los lagos de la zona de la Carretera de los campos de hielo (Icefields Parkway), proviene de la refracción de la luz a causa del polvo de roca depositado desde las montañas.
La foto ha sido tomada en la cima del llamado Rockpile Trail, un camino sencillo desde donde se puede observar una espectacular vista del lago, llamada vista de los 20 dolares puesto que esta toma se incluyo en el billete de 20 CAD del 1969 al 1979.

I took this picture in June 2011, driving south, somewhere on the road between Narman and Pasinler in Erzurum province
At first I thought this was a hamlet or village, but it is possibly a farm. It is hard to tell how many of these buildings are for human occupation, although the number of windows (which look like they may be glazed), and the amount of telephone cabling, suggests that this could be home to a fair few people.
Opinions on this are welcome.

As the name suggests,Little bee-eaters predominantly eat flying insects, especially bees and wasps, which are caught in the air by sallies from an open perch. While they pursue any type of flying insect, honey bees predominate in their diet.

Ourit a contact of mine suggested it looked like Marinos Ices and said that it remined here of two of her favorite flavours. Cherry and blue!
Marinos Italian Ices started in New York in the early 1960’s and was introduced at the 1964 World Fair. Marinos Italian Ices immediately became New York’s Favorite Italian Ice. Marinos.

HCKP13 suggested that I photograph his F100 with another build, so here's a little preview of the whole lot. I changed the color from orange to red and added some larger wheels. They aren't my design, but they're a great fit! They were originally done by Versteinert.
