I have been fascinated with this tree since the first time I saw it. It stands in the middle of the river in the top tiers of a giant waterfall. It stands at a crazy tilt with huge wild branches going every which way to balance it. I've seen it stand through heavy spring floods and thick winter ice. Hundreds of other trees in the surrounding forest fell in the severe storms of the last two years. Trees near the edge of the fall below were uprooted or snapped entirely in two. This tree, though, it just grips the stones and holds firmly in place. And it doesn't just survive, it grows and is beautiful. If you can call a tree brave, I'd say this one has an admirable amount of courage.

Glacial iceflows fascinate me. The combination of their age, beauty and erosive powers on the landscape have capitated since I studied them in textbooks as a schoolboy.
Imagine my delight then to come up close to one for the first time on our recent trip to Iceland.
There are many glaciers which can be viewed from Iceland's main southern road, and a few of these have easy access where you come to very close quarters with the glacier or even stand on the glacier, if you're feeling adventurous (which I was, but the pleadings of my wife not to be reckless won the day).
As we drove east we eventually arrived at Jökulsárlón, where ice from Iceland's largest glacier emplies into a glacial lake and eventually washes out to sea. I was in heaven :-)
We were lucky enough to come across a chunk of ice that had broken off from a larger section and washed ashore. I picked it up, admired its shape and form; amazed that it had made its journey from the top of the mountain down to the lake over 100s, probably 1000s of years, to eventually sit in the palm of my hand.
I placed it on this obliging rock, set the camera up, took the shot, then set it free - thowing it back into the lake from where it came.
It was a good day.
[140/365] Shadow graffiti.
Still not fit for fight but had to fill up the refrigerator with some food. Luckily the store sign had painted some shadow graffiti with the bicycle stand…Snap!

Yesterdays labour day in Berlin was a lot less tense than in the past years. The whole day was quite relaxed, without big conflicts or riots to talk about. Everybody seemed to be in a mood to party, and through the professional work of the german policeforce, the traditional revolutionary labour day demonstration of the left wing activists went peaceful with a few exceptions.
The most interesting may have been the people who were wearing costumes, masks and were fun to see. This guy is a good example =)
Something different. No bokeh today (sometimes I've got to do it). I had to stand in this spot for a while to get the path with no people on (there are some people in the distance though), but every time I tried to get a shot, someone would walk/cycle/skateboard into my shot. Now, if I trying for bokeh people, that would be fine, but instead, I probably looked like I was lost or something just standing there. :)
Happy Thursday! The weekend is in sight! I've looking forward to some quality time with my camera. I haven't picked it up for several weeks, and with the days getting really short, it's hard to find time or the light to get anything worth it. I always seem to be using the same lens recently, which is fine, but I do think I need to take some other lenses out for a spin this weekend. Maybe The Beast (macro lens)... or I might try and see if the garden birds co-operate with my big zoom lenses. We'll see... :)
A few fresh shots of the Food Stand Diners, mostly while I have fun experimenting with new lighting setups.
PS, they're trending pretty well on LEGO Ideas, but could use a few extra votes to get them over the line to 10,000. So, if you'd like to see them as a set, but haven't yet supported them, head to

I Stand Alone lyrics
Now I've told you this once before
You can't control me
If you try to take me down you're gonna break
Now I feel your hatred nothing that you're doing for me
I'm thinkin you outta make your own way
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
You're always hiding behind your so called goddess
So what you don't think that we can see your face
Resurrected back before the final fallen
I'll never rest until I can make my own way
I'm not afraid of fading
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
And now its my time (now its my time)
It's my time to dream (my time to dream)
Dream of the sky (dream of the sky)
Make me believe that this place isn't plagued
By the poison in me
Help me decide if my fire will burn out
Before you can breathe
Breathe into me
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Inside
" Life"...))) True love does not come by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly...
I am at a loss for words for the suffering that has befallen Ukraine. Europe must help those fleeing the war but also those staying to fight it. Putin is a criminal who must be stopped. #StandWithUkraine
Submission by the less dominant bird saves injury I guess, the coarse hair to the left is a roadkill wild boar lunch!
Watching their behaviour over several days, it is fascinating to see the bird that is eating protect its food by covering it over using its outspread wings, almost trying to hide it and to say "go away....it's mine"!!
Have you ever played cork drop challenge? Kind of fun

There's always money in the Banana Stand!
Since I posted my original Banana Stand in 2015, I've received many requests for instructions, sets, stickers, etc. Since then I've been able to refine the design and, more importantly, have some professionally printed and die-cut stickers made up for the MOC. I heard the calls for making this available loud and clear. I wanted this to be a special kit; my first publicly available kit that incorporated full color PDF instructions, custom figures, high quality stickers, all in a fun build and a nice package!
