Dettifoss waterfall Iceland, situated in northeastern Iceland, not far from Mývatn.
You see the falling Jökulsá á Fjöllum river, which comes from the Vatnajökull glacier and collects water from a large area in north-east Iceland. Dettifoss is the most powerful waterfalls in Europe, having a flow between 200.000 and 500.000 litres per second !!! The falls are 100 m wide and have a drop of 44 m down to the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon.
WOW...makes your hands shiver

The Peterbuilt doesn't look so big when compared it to the Galaxy C-5's engines. The Galaxy C-5 is the world's largest military airplane. This one and the ones in the background are in storage at the Aircraft Maintenance and Regeneration Group, Tuscon, Arizona. At the time I took this picture (2012) there were over four thousand US military aircraft being stored here, and they are all wrapped for protection from the elements. I did some research and this particular airplane (0466) seems to still be there.
I went to so many waterfalls in Iceland that I can't remember the name of this one. The sun was up creating intense contrast - a difficult shot. Pictured here with photographer Steve Bell balanced on a rock to give it a bit of scale
All of my constructicons form Devastator AND split apart to change from robots to vehicles! Here they are in vehicle mode.

Weights can be evaluated only in comparison. Too much thoughts lately, it will change soon :)
I guess that ferry carries several cars, but it looks like a kids' toy on the picture.

Bornean Keeled Pitviper (Tropidolaemus subannulatus) - Malua Forest Reserve, Malaysia
A T. subannulatus from the Malaysian Rainforest in Borneo. This is probably the most common viper species in Borneo but this individual has a somewhat unusual color atleast when compared to the others which I encountered. This one had more of a blueish tint to its scales which made it a rather strikingly colored snake. By playing around with my lighting I was able to get a shot which really showed off the texture of the scales.
This is part of the front scale from a Remington 12 typewriter, from the early 20th century. The numbers reflect the scale of 10 characters per inch, with each minor tick representing the width of one character - one-tenth of an inch.
Shot for Macro Mondays' weekly theme "numbers".
This was the first time on this trip I could stop and take all my toys from the car with enough time to enjoy.
I was designated driver at the time, my co-driver happily sleeping as the sun came up on this glorious vista. Took a while to find a safe parking spot so missed the 'Golden time' but hey, I'm not complaining. More to follow.
No stepping outside for me today. I was tempted to take a self-portrait as I feel run-down today for sure, still sick. Anywho--I took this photo (only took 5 shots) of a few of our finds from our vintage adventure on the way home last week. These items may be run-down, forgotten, rickety and neglected but to me they are much loved. So much character and history.

I've posted a mono version of a similar shot years ago, Scales Moor is a flat plateaux of limestone in the Yorkshire Dales. There are a number of Erratics like the one here scattered randomly around.
