The river Muru is feeding the lake Gjende near to the DNT lodge, which is carrying rock flours from the mountains. This rock flours are the main reason for creating this spectacular green water of the lake Gjende!
This shot is from Memurubu, where DNT lodge can be seen at the foot of the mountains close to the lake Gjende.

I've been experimenting using HDR image as a light source in Blender and rendering with Yafray. I've used the Biotrust tutorial to set up this scene, with additional info about HDR image setup from Blender noob to pro wiki.
HDR(i) stands for High Dynamic Range (imaging). Normally digital images, eg like jpg's, are just using whole numbers between 0 and 255 to represent one of the RGB colors, this gives about (256*256*256) 16777216 different colors. Such images are also called LDR (Low Dynamic Images). HDR images are using decimal (floating point) numbers to represent their values, and gives a lot more information about the image. That would be like using a value between 0 and 4294967296 to represent just one of the RGB colors.
With digital image processing programs (eg. photoshop or cinepaint) this gives a lot of editing opportunities. It will bring colors out from even quite dark areas of the image. This is why HDR images often are so colorful.
HDR images in computer rendered images (and movies) are for this reason used as light source (like in my image above), and gives the scene a much better and natural lightening of rendered objects. This is especially useful when rendered object are mixed with real images. The HDR image used in scenes are therefore taken from reflections from a Chrome ball where the scene is to be rendered. This technique is called light probening.
HDR images can also be produced by taking several pictures of the same scene using different exposures and composing them together. In this way details in both the bright and dark areas of an image can be seen. Try to search flickr with the keyword 'hdr', and you will discover a whole new world of digital images.
The hdr image used in this rendering was taken from Paul Debevec's homepage.
(please add comments, I am after all a noob at this subject.....)

Australia was approaching its bicentennial celebrations, and after Brisbane’s success hosting the 1982 Commonwealth Games, Brisbane City Council and the Queensland State Government were confident they could win the bid to hold the next World Exhibition.
Brisbane won the right to hold the event and Expo 88 was officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on 30 April 1988. By the time it closed, it had changed the way the world saw Brisbane and helped shaped the city as we know it today.
Starting with an estimated budget of $645 million, the Queensland State Government developed a World Expo that would recoup and support its own costs and promote international investment in Queensland, both during and after the event. South Bank, badly damaged in the 1973–74 floods, was chosen and the site acquired for $150 million. Developers completed construction on time and within budget. The targets set for ticket sales were reached 11 weeks before Expo 88 had even opened. It was off to a smashing start.
Celebrating ‘Leisure in the age of technology’, there was an incredible range of pavilions, performances, parades, comedy and artwork on show. Guests could experience over 50 restaurants filled with flavours from around the globe. Hosted over six months, it drew more than 18 million people to the renewed South Bank parklands district. An average of 100,000 people a day entered the gates.
An influx of royalty, celebrities and international visitors came to Brisbane for the exhibition, but it was Queensland residents who attended the most often, purchasing 500,000 season tickets. Expo 88 provided something the city needed: an easy-to-access recreational facility with exciting things to do, see and experience. Brisbanites returned again and again to socialise and enjoy the festival atmosphere.
The monorail was one of the most popular attractions. Giving travellers a view of the entertainments from above, it operated along a 2.3-kilometre track during Expo 88, taking up to 44,000 visitors a day from one side of Expo to the other, along the Brisbane River. Built by Swedish manufacturer Von Roll, the monorail cost $12 million and comprised four MkII trains with nine carriages each. The idea of keeping the monorail operating after Expo and extending it into the Brisbane CBD was discussed. Ultimately, the existing monorail wasn’t a feasible long-term people-moving solution and it was disbursed. Three trains were sold back to Von Roll and were used in Germany’s Europa-Park. The remaining train and some tracks were incorporated into the Sea World theme park on the Gold Coast.
Some of the most significant installations, exhibitions and artworks from Expo 88 were relocated and continue to be enjoyed today. Ken Done AM, a prominent Australian artist and designer, was commissioned to produce the entry and exit statement art pieces for the Australia Pavilion. Using the word ‘Australia’, Done produced a sign nearly six metres tall that could not be missed by anyone who attended Expo 88. The letters have since been restored and are on display at the Caboolture Heritage Village. The Nepal Peace Pagoda was the only international pavilion that remained on-site, after a petition asking that it remain attracted about 70,000 signatures. The Japan Garden and Pond were gifted to the city of Brisbane and moved to the Botanic Gardens at Mt Coot-Tha.
The buzz of activity, the investment in South Bank’s infrastructure and the spotlight on Brisbane transformed the city. The physical legacy left by Expo 88 turned South Bank into a thriving social space and prominent cultural hotspot: 42 hectares was dedicated to the construction of the South Bank Parklands.

According to "Images of America: Maryland Thoroughbred Racing" (by Gunning & Horine, 2005), race meets had been held in this area as early as 1745. In 1768, the imported racehorse Figure defeated the American-bred Selim in a match race at Marlboro. However, the site of the original track is unknown. The Colin's Ghost website lists 1914 as the opening date for this particular iteration of the track at Marlboro.
Gunning & Horine state that Marlboro was the 2nd of 3 tracks in the 1/2-mile Maryland fair racing circuit. (Other sources indicate that the track is 5/8 mile.) Fair racing began at Timonium, moved to Marlboro, and then moved on to Cumberland.
The track closed in 1971. It remains largely intact, though badly deteriorated, at the site of Prince George's Equestrian Center.

Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan
Swans are birds of the family Anatidae within the genus Cygnus. The swans' close relatives include the geese and ducks. Swans are grouped with the closely related geese in the subfamily Anserinae where they form the tribe Cygnini. Sometimes, they are considered a distinct subfamily, Cygninae. There are six or seven living (and one extinct) species of swan in the genus Cygnus; in addition, there is another species known as the coscoroba swan, although this species is no longer considered one of the true swans. Swans usually mate for life, although “divorce” sometimes occurs, particularly following nesting failure, and if a mate dies, the remaining swan will take up with another. The number of eggs in each clutch ranges from three to eight.

"Large crowds attend exhibition
The continuing impact of microcomputers in the office and at home resulted in large crowds attending the 7th Newcastle Microcomputing Exhibition at the University last week, according to the exhibition’s convenor, Mr John Dugas.
The 30 exhibitors were kept busy throughout the three days of the exhibition, especially as people were becoming more aware of the advantages of microcomputers.
Mr Dugas said one if the noticeable treads in the past few years was the awareness of young people of mircocomputing hardware and software. This had mainly come about through computer programs in schools as part of the normal curriculum
The younger generation is ‘growing up’ with computers and it appears the older generation does not want to be left too far behind’, Mr Dugas said.
“Many of the visitors at the exhibition were mums and dads who came along for a look because of their interest which obviously had been partly by their children. Many family groups were in attendance and often it was the son or daughter leading the way.
“Overall, the exhibition was very successful in its major aim – awing the community what modern technology is doing in the form of microcomputers- and initial reports show that exhibitors were extremely pleased with the 1990 event, “added Mr Dugas.
A series of free seminars arranged by one of the exhibitors were well attended, particularly by business people.
The winner of a computer system valued at $2,600 donated by Andor Systems of New Lambton was a Year 12 student at Waratah High School. Andrew Weatherstone, of Waratah, is undertaking computer studies for his HSC and has applied for a place in the University’s Bachelors of Computer Science course next year.
Mr Dugas passed on his appreciation to all who were involved in staging the exhibition and said it was a wonderful opportunity for the University to throw open its doors to the community. "
