A beautiful walk on the Replana (in the neighborhood of Castalla , Alicante, Spain) with great views.
Large flocks of Horned Larks huddled together on a freezing day with windchills in the -50s. If you zoom in you’ll see frost forming around their eyes.
This amazing tree grows on the rim of the Grand Canyon. One branch, pointing toward the right, still lives. The other branches are dead.
Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!
Santiago Island has the biggest and longest lava flow, which is located in Sullivan Bay. Geologically speaking, this island is one of the most beautiful and unbelievable formations. The vast basaltic landscape performs smooth and unbroken surfaces with undulations and nods formed by the fluid lava that created the sculpture. It is located on the central west of the archipelago and is formed by two overlapping volcanoes. It is the 4th biggest of the Galapagos archipelago.

Thank you in advance to everyone that comments and/or faves my picture. They are all immensely appreciated.
I, like this sunrise trying to get out from the clouds, am on the struggle bus with getting out and shooting some photos.
A trip to Halibut Point State Park in early 2021 had me diving back into my archives. This was originally posted and removed, but reworked slightly in Lightroom for some shadow control.

A leaf from a briar appears to be trying to regenerate. I don't know much about plant biology but it's a colourful struggle.
Genovesa Island, its sandy coral beach with a great viewpoint of the bay, is one of the Galapagos’ jewels. It is also known as the “Bird Island“ offering the opportunity to enjoy the most representative birds of Galapagos as: Puffball–chicks, white both yellow–crowned and lava herons, Red footed boobies contrasting with the Nazca booby and also the Swallow–tailed gulls, the only nocturnal gulls in the world that will be nesting at the cliff’s edge.

My tribute to Chester........(also from old account)
If they say
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We're quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do
Looks like not many trees have survived on this side of Blakiston Creek. Winter conditions must be harsh in the Rockies.
Struggling along toward their end terminal in Channing, this 4 unit set of Milwaukee Road F's is going to make it one way or another having left Iron Mountain, Michigan not long ago - November 9, 1978.
What are your associations when you hear the term "class struggle"? It is probably an educated guess that a lot of history will pop up, including that of the socialist and trade union movements and even that of Marxism and Communism. Can I invite you to widen the perspective and, as I would see it, to look at what goes really on in a lot of western societies, particularly that of the UK? What is happening here can indeed be described as class struggle, but it is not that coming from below. It is class struggle from above. It is the people of wealth who are using the political and legal systems of the modern state in order to gratify themselves and exclude the large majority from the benefits of their own work. Profits are invested wherever the most lucrative gains can be made, and this means that capital is being exported, not re-invested at home. Tax avoidance is another characteristic of class struggle from above, I probably don't need to go into details. You must also have noticed that over the last three decades work has become cheap. A generation ago, one earner (usually the husband) was able to sustain the life of a family, today, you would need two earners to do the same. And the jobs they would be having would be insecure too. In the UK, as in France as well, there is opposition to this process of continuously eroding the people's access to life's opportunities. In Britain, people are on strike for a very good reason.

The Ft Dodge to Waterloo local (L570) flying thru New Hardford, Iowa full of snow and with ditch lights out near sunset. They had just opened the main between Ft Dodge and Waterloo, and were the first train on this stretch of track since the overnight snowfall we had
Thanks to Scott Marsh for alerting me to this EB train. He got the same train at Sinclair, Ia a few miles West of me
I am pretty sure that winter is over here. It has been a wee bit cold still here but getting better all the time.
Happy Saturday
