This section of Iguazu Falls is known as Devil's Throat. It is most easily seen/accessible from the Argentine side of the falls via a 1200-yard footbridge after getting off of the Jungle Train at Devil's Throat Station. I took this photo from the balcony at the end of the footbridge. The rushing water of the falls is so loud on the balcony that you almost can't hear anything else, and I got very wet from the misty overspray created by the falls. On the footbridge while walking to and from the falls we saw lots of animals and birds including Coatis and Plush Crested Jays.
Quote of the Day:
"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." (Helen Keller)
This section of the canal is between Renton's Bridge and Nicholson's Bridge. On the left you can see Ripon Racecourse and to the right the tops of motor boats moored at the Ripon Motor Boat Club.
Ripon Motor Boat Club was established in 1931, having celebrated its 85th anniversary in 2016 the club is now one of the largest inland waterway boat clubs in the country.
The Ripon Canal is located in North Yorkshire, England. It was built by the canal engineer William Jessop to link the city of Ripon with the navigable section of the River Ure at Oxclose Lock, from where boats could reach York and Hull. First used in 1773 and closed in 1956 consising of 3 locks over its 2.3 miles
In 1961, members of the Ripon Motor Boat Club formed the Ripon Canal Company Ltd, and gradually restored the canal up to Littlethorpe. Subsequently, the Ripon Canal Society spearheaded restoration, which was completed in 1996. It is now managed by the Canal & River Trust

An older shot but reprocessed. I did like the way this turned out. When I first saw this I remembered the location and should get back there soon.
Happy Fence Friday
View from Cala s'Alguer, Costa Brava.
This is a panorama made up of two HDR shots taken in autobraking (-1.4ev, -0.7ev., +0e, +0.7ev, +1.4ev), The panorama was made with Hugin, using a Biplane projection. Darktable was used for the edition. Unfortunately no tripode was used. You can read additional technical information in my profile (about section).
Regarding the non-HDR version, I believe water is much better, although the focus is worst due to I could not use a tripod and the alignment process was not perfect.
You can see the original version (non HDR) here:

A section of the Milky Way core with the Prawn Nebula and Fighting Dragons of Ara. This didn't turn out as I hoped, there are just so many stars in this region! Single panel, 135mm Sigma Art lens at f/2, ISO200, 10 minute subs (13 of them), Nikon D810A on a Celestron CGEM2 EQ mount, guided y PHD2, camera control with APT, stacking and initial processing in APP, final processing in PS.
An unusual subject that caught my eye whilst out wandering on a wet afternoon - the remains of an old punga tree fern stump that has been sawn through, wet with rainwater and with new life springing from within! Worth an image I thought.

La deuxième section des chutes Gullfoss (Golden Falls) en Islande.
Elles font partie des 3 sites du Golden Circle, la plus célèbre de toutes les routes panoramiques d'Islande qui combine des monuments époustouflants et des lieux d'importance historique dans une visite touristique circulaire.
Cette énorme cascade est située sur la rivière Hvità (nom islandais signifiant blanche à cause de la couleur donnée par les sédiments glaciaires). La rivière prend sa source à partir du glacier Langjökull.
Gullfoss signifiant « chute d'or » tient son nom du fait que le sédiment glaciaire de l'eau donne un aspect doré à la cascade dans la lumière du soleil et qu'on y voit souvent des arcs-en-ciel.
L'eau tombe à 32 mètres de profondeur en deux temps. Alors qu’on approche du site, on entend d’abord les eaux tumultueuses bouillonner avant de les apercevoir. Elles tombent dans une profonde crevasse impressionnante. On peut aller au sommet ou descendre le chemin qui va vers le bas à pied. Il faut remarquer le contraste entre la verdure près de la rivière et l'aspect rocheux et désertique des roches glaciaires plus loin.

The Peterborough Lift Lock National Historic Site of Canada is located on the Otonabee River section of the Trent Canal in the City of Peterborough, Ontario. It is a large concrete structure along the Trent-Severn Waterway designed to lift boats 19.8 metres. The lock operates on a balance system, whereby water is let into the upper chamber, a connecting valve is opened and the heavier chamber Peterborough is known as the gateway to the Kawarthas, "cottage country", a large recreational region of the province. It is named in honour of Peter Robinson, an early Canadian politician who oversaw the first major immigration to the area. The city is the seat of Peterborough County.
Well that's a wrap on another week and a very welcome beginning to a long weekend.
Three final images from the last week of September 2020.
Watching baseball, sitting in the sun, eating popcorn,
reading Ezra Pound,
and wishing that Juan Marichal would hit a hole right through
the Anglo-Saxon tradition in the first Canto
and demolish the barbarian invaders

The boom sections are capped and the head is in place. I just need to make the hook block, the counterweight and connect the boom ram to have a working crane.
Ever wonder what an artichoke looks like in cross section? I pretty well know because I like eating them but here you go.
Two Remodelado's on the iconic Route 28 exit the narrowest section of the route in Alfama, Lisbon, Portugal. Route 28 is one of the most famous tram routes in the world taking in the twisty turny and very hilly single lane streets of the famous Alfama neighbourhood. Some sections of this part of the route are so narrow pedestrians have to seek shelter in doorways and you can knock on peoples doors as you go past in a tram!
Having got back from Belem we still had most of the afternoon free so we went for a ride on one of the red tour guided trams, complete with onboard commentary. This shot was taken from our tram while waiting at the traffic lights that govern this single line stretch as these two 28s made their way back onto the double line section. Being the most popular route on the Lisbon Tram network, 28s often travel in pairs to cater for the sheer amount of tourists that use the route. Unless you get to the starting point early, expect a long queue and a long wait before you can get on one.
The section between Drew (where we ran around the train and changed direction to go back to Ashton) and Bonnievale on the Swellendam-Ashton line is extremely scenic, especially when the weather is right.
On July 2, 2023, 24 3655 from Ceres Rail, hauling a short mixed on this serction heading for Ashton.
I was taking a cool focus stack of this peony when it fell from its clasp onto the floor. It was missing half of its petals when I picked it up. That allowed this cross-section photo though. I set the camera for 110 frames, and blended them with Helicon Focus to create this image.

Windows Section, Arches National Park, Utah. The names South Window Arch and North Window Arch are quite mundane, so I prefer the more descriptive name, The Spectacles. This view, accessed by the trail around to the back side of the formation, is not the usual view seen by most visitors. I photographed this view in order to get good light on The Spectacles early in the day. Scanned from a color slide.
