Eden Brent - Better This Way"
From the archives....One of the many breathtaking views along Sherbrooke Lake in Yoho National Park, British Columbia and we had it all to ourselves on this particular morning. We did see a few people hiking in on our way out; apparently it's not a frequently traveled trail but well worth the short hike to get there. A very "beary" area, so don't forget your bear spray if you go.
Have a fabulous weekend....as always, thanks for all your visits and comments!!!!

Porto Torre, Varese. Italy.
The Ticino River borns in Val Bedretto, near Nufenenpass, 2,480m above the sea, in Switzerland. It is fed by the glaciers of the Alps and it is the main feeder of Lake Maggiore, in Italy. Its run is divided in three segments: the mountain segment, in Switzerland, the lake segment, in Lake Maggiore, and the plane segment, from Lake Maggiore to the Po River. Ticino flows out of Lake Maggiore near the City of Sesto Calende, and then it flows in the great plane toward the city of Pavia, where it joins the Po River (the largest river in Italy). Ticino is about 248 kilometres (154 mi) long. The highest point of the drainage basin is the summit of Grenzgipfel (a subpeak of Monte Rosa), at 4,618 metres (15,151 ft). From Monte Rosa, the water flows into the Anza River, and then into Toce River to feed again Lake Maggiore.
There is a series of dams in Switzerland, in order to create hydroelectricity, while in Italy a series of small dams are used to control the level of water in the lake for agricultural purposes.
This shot has been taken some kilometers downstream of Lake Maggiore, near the small dam of Porto Torre.

I went for a walk this morning at the marsh. The clouds were awesome!

(this time combined with black sand beach)
Enjoy the stillness and plain quiet beach scene - let's hope 2017 works out like this.
However, my attendance of flickr is currently hampered by two things, - too slow internet (which I cannot not control in the short term) to do much, and I am running out of pictures to post (or time to dig into the archive to find more) - so I will be not be around as frequently as I would wish. Please bear with me - and apologies in advance.
To all again - a very happy NEW YEAR 2017!!!!!!
One of the most memorable dawn and sunrises I have ever seen
at Lindisfarne on our recent photography break in Northumberland...it just gave and gave.
Worth the very early start to witness.

The northern end of Jackson Lake greets visitors who enter the Grand Tetons from the north. On this day we began to see the autumn color a few miles up the road. We rounded a curve in the highway and suddenly we were confronted by this enchanting view. It was enough to fill my eyes with tears and definitely resulted in a rapid turn out for photos. I'm a sentimental old fool.
