I saw this fence when I was walking the dog on a footpath right next to the Great Central Railway where the track ends in Leicester. No steam trains, but I enjoyed the blossom.

Second image from the little lens that clips onto the iPhone, the Olloclip. Great fun indeed. I like the vivid colour on this one.

This is a leaf backlit by the sun. I saw it when I was walking Bonnie Greyhound through a wood. I took 20 or so photos in different parts of the wood. Bonnie put her four feet down firmly after that. No more.
No quería recurrir a las flores, pero es que ahora están tan bonitas que es difícil resistirse a ellas.
Este clavel visto de forma más cercana semeja los volantes de un bata de cola, o al menos a mí me lo parece.

SALDA LAKE ( YBSNature21)

Lake Salda is a mid-size crater lake[citation needed] in southwestern Turkey, within the boundaries of Yeşilova district of Burdur Province. It lies at a distance of about fifty kilometers to the west from the province seat Burdur.
Lake Salda is often included in the Turkish Lakes Region that extends across inner western to southern Anatolia, especially Isparta Province and Afyonkarahisar Province, although Lake Salda is geographically separate from the larger lakes, which are more to the east and, being a crater lake, is morphologically different from these tectonic lakes.
The lake area covers 4,370 hectares, and its depth reaches 196 meters, making it one of the deeper lakes in Turkey, if not the deepest. The lake sedimentary records show high resolution climate changes that are related to solar variability during the last millennium.
The lake is a popular excursion spot for people across the region or from beyond, the more so due to the hydromagnesite mineral found in its coastal waters, which is believed to offer remedies for certain dermatological diseases. The shorelines, surrounded by black pine forests, are also popular among hunters, the game and the fowl available including quails, hares, foxes, boars and wild ducks, aside from the lake's fish. White sandy beaches, limpid water and seven crystal-white islets within the lake complete the scenery.
A township that starts almost at the shore to the southwest of the lake carries the same name, Salda. The local administrative seat of Yeşilova is located to the east of the lake at a distance of about four kilometers and Yeşilova municipality manages the lake's camping facilities.
Its peculiar morphology has led to a number of academic studies conducted on Lake Salda. The unusual alkaline nature of the lake means that is one of the few locations where ancient stromatolite algae still grows.
In 2019, a team of planetary scientists from America and Turkey conducted research on Lake Salda's shoreline microbialite sediments. In March 2021, NASA reported that its Mars surface-exploring rover Perseverance showed that "the minerals and rock deposits at Salda are the nearest match on earth to those around the Jezero Crater where the spacecraft landed."
Hoping to protect the Lake Salda area, the nation's environmental authority has launched a huge national park project. The Salda Lake National Park is currently under construction and should be finished in 2023.(Wiki)
Les deux platanes laissent voir la magnifique Église Notre-Dame-des-Anges...
L'église Notre Dame des Anges, à Collioure, date du XVIIIe siècle. Elle fut construite en 1684 suite à la destruction ordonnée par Vauban en 1672 de l'ancienne église Ste Marie située au centre de la ville. Le village s'est ainsi déplacé de quelques centaines de mètres sur son emplacement actuel.

Near where I live is the most wonderful copper beech tree. It arches over the pavement and meets the green trees beside it. Looking up into the sunlight seems to give a wide spectrum of the colours found in nature. A tree rainbow!
Golf courses can be such wonderful havens for flora and fauna. This wonderful oak at the Sherfield Oaks golf course. This oak is just coming into leaf magnificently.

So Dear Flickr Friends, I request you all to save water even when you feel you currently don't need to... remember.. It's not an endless resource and that children learn best by example .... So please set that example wherever you are..

Two big grasshoppers. Romalea microptera, known commonly as the eastern lubber grasshopper or just lubber grasshopper, is a grasshopper native to the southeastern and south central portion of the United States. It is the most distinctive grasshopper species within the southeastern United States, and is well known both for its size and its unique coloration. It can reach nearly 3 inches in size.
