Valle de Pineta, Parque nacional de Ordesa y Monte Perdido, Sobrarbe, Huesca, Aragón, España.
El Valle de Pineta, forma parte del Parque Natural de Ordesa y Monte Perdido en la comarca de Sobrarbe. Un valle muy sobrecogedor por las altas y escarpadas montañas que se formaron como consecuencia del arrastre de desechos como producto del deshielo, esto mismo hace que el valle tenga la forma de U. Su paisaje cautiva por la frondosidad de sus bosques y prados, junto a ellos sobresalen las espectaculares caídas de agua que bajan de lo alto de la montañas.
Gracias a sus elevaciones resulta ser el lugar ideal para practicar deportes de alta montaña. En su cresta sur se observa una sección de picos que superan los 2.500 metros de altura, hacia el extremo sur sobresale un trío de picos conocidos como las tres Marías. Siguiendo hacia la cresta norte el terreno se vuelve menos escarpado.
El valle de Pineta se cierra en una pared bastante escarpada, en su parte alta de donde proceden las caídas de agua se encuentra el circo y el balcón de Pineta. Quienes han logrado subir hasta el Balcón de Pineta no pueden marcharse del sitio sin conocer el ibón de Marboré. Un sitio que ofrece las mejores panorámicas del Glaciar de Monte Perdido, ubicado entre Monte Perdido y Cilindro.
El circo de Pineta es una de las vistas más hermosas del valle. Hay que resaltar que el valle de Pineta es uno de los puntos más accesibles del Parque Natural de Ordesa y Monte Perdido gracias a la carretera que permite acceder hasta el fondo del valle
The Pineta Valley is part of the Ordesa y Monte Perdido Natural Park in the Sobrarbe region. A very overwhelming valley due to the high and steep mountains that were formed as a result of the dragging of waste as a product of the thaw, this itself makes the valley have the shape of a U. Its landscape captivates by the lushness of its forests and meadows, along with they stand out the spectacular waterfalls that come down from the top of the mountains.
Thanks to its elevations it turns out to be the ideal place to practice high mountain sports. On its southern crest there is a section of peaks that exceed 2,500 meters in height, towards the southern end there is a trio of peaks known as the three Marías. Continuing towards the north ridge the terrain becomes less steep.
The valley of Pineta is closed in a fairly steep wall, in its upper part where the waterfalls come from is the circus and the balcony of Pineta. Those who have managed to climb to the Balcón de Pineta cannot leave the site without seeing the Marboré lake. A site that offers the best panoramic views of the Monte Perdido Glacier, located between Monte Perdido and Cilindro.
The Pineta circus is one of the most beautiful sights in the valley. It should be noted that the Pineta valley is one of the most accessible points of the Ordesa y Monte Perdido Natural Park thanks to the road that allows access to the bottom of the valley.

A westbound empty coal train soars across the famous bridge at Coopers, WV. For those looking for foliage shots, colors on the Pocahontas District are looking absolutely stunning right now.
For those who are interested, an extract from this afternoon's Journal entry.
"At 5 o'clock we were back on the road to Sousousvlei for the afternoon drive, along the way we saw Oryx and Ostriches. We stopped at dune number 45, I gave Ruby my Panasonic camera and she went off to take photos of wild flowers. I took close up shots of the sand dune and its environment.
Next we drove to dune number 47; this was a stunning landscape, especially in the afternoon light. We watched the sun set at dune 47, Ruby took photos of the sunset with one of my cameras, while I used another. Neither of us was interested in sharing drinks and nibbles, we were civil but an impossible gulf had opened between us.
I asked about taking a hot air balloon or a sightseeing flight the next morning. Ruby said I'd never get into the balloon basket and besides the next morning would be windy and unsuitable for ballooning. She was no longer interested in anything I wanted if I wasn’t interested in what she wanted me to do. She had also lost sight of the fact I was the client and she the guide. Her message was loud and clear.
Back at the camp we had Orix kebabs for dinner, tough as old leather and not at all tasty."
This male widow skimmer was making the most of the late day sun rays on the Lake Meyer shoreline just before sunset. They have a wonderful wing pattern with those striking black bases and bordering wide white bands.

Never work with animals or children, they said... but they didnt have Azizi. From a very young age, he knows to pose when I have my camera. He gives me several seconds rather than nano seconds (the typical behaviours of my other Lesser Tenrecs!!). But I guess it means that of my 6 Tenrecs, I bring him out to photograph the most!!
This image made it as my choice of acrylic for my bathroom. Hope you like it. Tomorrow I will talk about how they really prefer to bathe!! (no water came into contact with my beautiful boy).
Taken last year on a wonderful but brief lunchtime jaunt into Hillock Wood, Buckinghamshire when a pocket of mist lingered in the woods in time for the low winter sun to bath it all with its golden light.
Went out to search for swallow tails but nothing in the field yet, these did well in the fading sunlight
Those beautiful moments in Heinenoord, this year has yet to get color, so we'll start in black and white.
All the best wishes for 2022, may it be a great year.
Thanks for all the faves and comments, even for just taking the time to view my photo's, much appreciated.

Those concrete poles are on the beach near Nieuwpoort. They are gigantic, about 4-5 m high. Will be going back to this location, wasn't that happy about cloudfomrations.
Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.

I am a lover of words and tragically beautiful things, poor timing and longing, and all things with soul, and I wonder if that means I am entirely broken, or if those are the things that have been keeping me whole.
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.

I am still alive and I am very glad about that. Have a nice weekend my dear friends. :-)
Introduction
Gospel Hymn “Those Who Don’t Accept the Truth Aren’t Fit for Salvation”
I
In hearing truth and word of life,
you may think only one word aligns
out of thousands of these words
with your thoughts and with the Bible, the Bible.
Seek in that 10,000th of words.
God advises humbleness,
to not be over-confident, to not exalt yourself.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?
II
Holding such meager reverence for God
will gain you greater light, greater light.
If you vet and ponder these words,
you’ll see if it’s truth, if it’s life, if it’s life.
Don’t blindly condemn God’s words
’cause of false Christs in the last days.
Do not blaspheme Holy Spirit
’cause you fear being led astray.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?
III
After much seeking and studying,
if you still think these words are not
the truth, the way, or God’s expressions,
you’ll be punished, your blessing’s lost, lost.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?

Those talons are razor-sharp and ready to strike. Earlier in the day, we saw this hawk swoop down, into the field, and nab a snake.
On the 3rd day of my journey south I pulled over to let those in a hurry pass by and to take a moment to feel where I was.
Dimly lit forests make such good subjects for my Slow Shutter app ... and this one was particularly dark and creepy.
There was only one, much overused (by me), but somehow completely appropriate tune to put to it.
The girl was never there, it's always the same ...

Large, black, crow-sized bird with decurved bill and deep red eye. In flight, white in primaries very evident. Struts around in family groups on the ground in open woodland areas around southeastern and eastern Australia. A variety of calls includes a plaintive, descending whistle. (eBird)
----------------
Although totally unrelated to crows, these choughs are just as shy. Everytime we came across a group, they would take off, much like this one is doing. Big, noisy and beautiful, they were fun to watch.
The White-winged Chough is one of only two species in their family. The other is the Apostlebird which looks very different to this bird. They are not related to the Choughs of the northern hemisphere.

As you can see from this shot, we humans aren't the only ones to be targeted by the little blood suckers.
"But is that true? Because a tree in spring buds and comes greenly into leaf, are those leaves therefore the tree? If the newborn twigs and their leaves were all that existed, they would form a vague halo of green suspended in mid-air, but surely that is not the tree. The leaves, by themselves, are no more than trivial fluttering decoration. It is the trunk and limbs that give the tree its grandeur and the leaves themselves their meaning. There is not a discovery in science, however revolutionary, however sparkling with insight, that does not arise out of what went before. 'If I have seen further than other men,' said Isaac Newton, 'it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants." — Adding a Dimension: Seventeen Essays on the History of Science, by Isaac Asimov.

Lil Dolly in the driveway. I was hoping to capture all four feet off the ground, I came close. Maybe another time. lol
For all those who loves winter activities this winter has been a joy
There are lots of trails in the forest and in the evening some of them are being lighted
Moving our butts have been something Norwegians are maybe especially good at
We love our hikes, whether it is walking in the streets or in the forest
I think we have been born with the joy of moving, it is in our spine
And now that I have solved my big problems in life I love listening to music when I'm out walking, feeling the joy, the love for life, the love of moving in small steps, and of course some dancing moves, digging music, life is sure wonderful with all its mysteries
I totally forget time and space when I'm out with Aiko
I give you Wherever I go
Those famous words, uttered by Dr. Strange in Marvel's Avengers Infinity War, have now become true for the big blue western railroad. Today, the railroad officially filed its intent to terminate its lease with the Surface Transportation Board. We are now down to the final months of the railroad. Need to make it a great final stand.
