One of the iconic peaks along the Kananaskis Trail. Too many peaks to pick a favorite, but Mt. Kidd is high on the short list.
"Mount Kidd is a 2,958-meter (9705 ft) double-summit massif centrally located in Kananaskis Country in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. Mount Kidd is situated within Spray Valley Provincial Park." wikipedia
Have a wonderful weekend!
Given how hot the recent temperatures have been, sun protection is a must. These spray on ones are excellent!!
The Spray River just before it flows into the Bow River a stone's throw from Bow Falls. Mt. Rundle rises on the left.
The river is dammed upstream in the Kananaskis to form the scenic Spray Lakes.
Thanks for taking a look!
Have a safe, wonderful week.
I was looking for a closeup shot of grass, then I saw the golden grass waving as a spray next the fire hydrant , I thought the two together as the wind blows look neat.

I think this is probably the last storm photo I shall post from my archives, I need to get out and take some new stuff.
Salvia is the largest genus of plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae, with nearly 1000 species of shrubs, herbaceous perennials, and annuals. Within the Lamiaceae, Salvia is part of the tribe Mentheae within the subfamily Nepetoideae. One of several genera commonly referred to as sage, it includes the widely produced herb used in cooking. Salvia species include annual, biennial, or perennial herbs, along with woody subshrubs. The stems are typically angled like other members in Lamiaceae. The leaves are typically entire, but sometimes toothed or pinnately divided. The flowering stems bear small bracts, dissimilar to the basal leaves—in some species the bracts are ornamental and showy. 10240

Pretty cool how the water was spraying off of this knot on the log.
Late evening and the north west wind is tearing the tops off the waves. A lone gull heads up the coast into the wind.

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.

Early yesterday morning this swan decided to take a bath. He (I think this is a cob!) made such a splish-splash, I stopped trying to photograph swans about to fly, to get a few shots of him enjoying a bathe. The bathing went on, and on, and on. It was the most elaborate and exuberant bathing I've seen, and don't swans like to take their time, with all those feathers to clean?

The Loup of Fintry, on the River Endrick.

Sadly this plane crashed and killed the 75 year old pilot the day after I took this photo. A wheel caught a guy wire from a cell phone tower and crashed.
Inspired by all of the beautiful seascapes that BlueberryAsh has been posting I decided to go back and revisit my Phillip Island images to make sure I hadn't missed any good ones. This is actually a combination of two images taken of this scene, one had the nice spray, the other had the nice white semi-circular wash on the sand. I like the combined version and hope you do too, taken near Cadillac Canyon, Phillip Island.
Waves crashing on rocks on a stormy day at Cala Torta, Mallorca, Baleares - abstracted photograph edited with textures
We had a very windy weekend here in Tasmania. Statewide warnings of 'severe' and 'damaging' winds. This was the view from our place - often clouds of spray ripped of the water surface and sent in whirlwinds and sheets that looked menacing.
During a heavy downpour at Tamworth, the passengers riding Virgin's 1.00pm London Euston - Manchester Piccadilly service (1H26) barely notice the sharp right-hand turn as the Pendolino cabin tilting mechanism works overtime on the curve.
Meantime the wheels are doing a rather nice job of dispersing the water lying on top of the railhead - I wonder if the passengers knew they'd purchased Cheap Spray Returns?

Seems like mother-nature got paint on just about every pixel on the sensor for this capture. Captured with the 6 Stop ND to smooth out the water just a little on this breezy Spring evening.
Pretty sunset along Middle River.
