Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
Today has been one of those days where I just felt like getting in my car and driving to someplace far away that I've never visited before.
It took me a while to figure out how to edit the birds in.. I'm actually pretty proud of this :)
Thousands of gallons of thermal water running into the Firehole River--the eerie steam rising from the hot water and the beautiful bacterial coloring make this unique scene

From Wikipedia:
Designed by Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid, One Thousand Museum was Zaha Hadid's first residential tower in the Western Hemisphere, and one of the final projects designed by Hadid in her lifetime. It was designed in association with O’Donnell Dannwolf Partners Architects, a local architecture firm.
A notable feature of the building is the curving exoskeleton, allowing the interior space to have fewer columns. The exoskeleton is composed of 5,000 pieces of glass fiber reinforced concrete. These pieces were shipped from Dubai early in the construction process. The exoskeleton is located in front of a glass facade.

The Darckr Flickr Viewer is a webapp and a mashup based upon the flickr web rest apis.
Darckr allows to view Flickr content and helps in social life and picture management, by posting comments, or editing photo parameters.
For me, Darckr is an experimental platform to study the web2 languages.
Working is easier in beautiful surroundings...
Darckr uses ajax for continuous page preloading and streaming (here my own pictures sorted by interestingness according to Flickr), and the mootools javascript api.
The originality of Darckr is that the end user can freely customize his preferred viewing settings and save them on demand in cookies.
Ironically, this free software has become the mostly used of my programs ever, with more than 3000 thousand users of the full functionality,
several thousand pages viewed per day, and some 70000 api calls per day.
Still rising :-).
Darckr uses Ajax to interact with one's flickr account in ways not offered by the flickr web site itself.

Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer

A pretty fresh looking C44ACM takes twenty-one thousand tons of Iron Ore from Southern Utah through the S-curve just to the east of Hodge. The train is maintaining decent speed over this portion of the Cajon Subdivision, after picking a four pack of mid-train DPUs at Yermo for it's trip up and down Cajon Pass.
Similar to the reptile, If you follow the marks it leaves in the tracks and you'll find where this train goes.

The Thousand Islands is a picturesque archipelago located in the St. Lawrence River, straddling the border between northern New York State (USA) and southeastern Ontario (Canada). It consists of 1,864 islands, from small rocky outcrops to larger inhabited ones. On the Canadian side, the Thousand Islands stretch for about 80 km (50 miles) downstream from Kingston to Brockville, Ontario. On the U.S. side, islands stretch from Jefferson County and St. Lawrence County upstream to Alexandria Bay, New York. The American region along the river has a much less dense population compared to Ontario, Canada. The whole Thousand Islands region is of natural beauty, history and recreational opportunities. Many islands feature historic landmarks, including castles, lighthouses, and mansions.

Les Mille-Îles sont un archipel pittoresque situé dans le fleuve Saint-Laurent, à cheval sur la frontière entre le nord de l'État de New York (États-Unis) et le sud-est de l'Ontario (Canada). Il se compose de 1 864 îles, des petits affleurements rocheux aux plus grandes îles habitées. Du côté canadien, les Mille-Îles s'étendent sur environ 80 km (50 miles) en aval de Kingston à Brockville, en Ontario. Du côté américain, les îles s'étendent du comté de Jefferson et du comté de Saint-Laurent en amont jusqu'à la baie d'Alexandria, dans l'État de New York. La région américaine le long du fleuve a une population beaucoup moins dense que l'Ontario, au Canada. Toute la région des Mille-Îles est d'une beauté naturelle, historique et offre des possibilités de loisirs. De nombreuses îles abritent des monuments historiques, notamment des châteaux, des phares et des manoirs.
It's not far. Salen to Sanna. The route on the main road is only 24 miles, most of it single track, but it takes at least an hour to drive. it dives down amongst forests of old oak trees to the water's edge by the sea loch, and climbs up high over barren moors dotted with deer, and down to the white sands of Sanna Bay tucked behind marram grass threaded dunes. The road is windy, twisting and turning in and out of rocky inlets and tide emptied bays, like this one. It's a lovely run, interesting and varied, challenging and fun to drive. But it is a dead end out on the westernmost tip of the British Isles, far from the madding crowds

One Thousand Museum is a high-rise residential condominium in Miami. The building, which is located at 1000 Biscayne Boulevard, was designed Zaha Hadid Architects. Completed in 2019, One Thousand Museum is 215 m tall.
Saint Winifred's Church in Branscombe in Devon, is among the oldest and most architecturally significant parish churches of Devon. It probably dates back as far as about 995, but records of the vicars only go back to the thirteenth century. The tower is the oldest part and the base could be Saxon while the main part is early 12th century Norman, as is most of the nave.
The church is built on a levelled area that can not be seen from the coast, and this may have been for protection of the original Saxon church from Viking raiders. Alternatively, the church may have been placed on an earlier pre-Christian holy site. Occupying such a pagan site would have allowed the Church to both challenge paganism and benefit from any positive religious feelings associated with the site.
The Grade I-listed building is considered by Simon Jenkins to be among England's Thousand Best Churches.

Thousands of shots later......and various combinations of lenses in an effort to capture a good in-flight shot, it came down to the 300mm with a X2 TC attached that performed the miracle! I call this particular House Martin Flicker due to the little flick at the end of it's right hand tail feathers.

Winter seems to be swallowing this old ramshackle farmhouse that is one of my favorite local shooting spots. Yet the "spirit" of the old house is still welcoming; the front door stands open. "Come on in and make yourself at home. " There was just enough nuance in the sky to be slightly menacing, and I liked the end product of the mood of this image. About 13 months ago I reviewed the very expensive but also incredibly exceptional Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II, and have wanted it ever since. I finally sold a few things towards the end of 2016 and placed my order. This is my first share from own copy of the lens. You can see what I added and what I dropped from my kit in 2016 (and why) here: bit.ly/DADrop

The Thousand Islands International Bridge (French: Pont des Mille-îles) is an American-maintained international bridge system over the Saint Lawrence River connecting northern New York in the United States with southeastern Ontario in Canada. Constructed in 1937, with additions in 1959, the bridges span the Canada–US border in the middle of the Thousand Islands region. All bridges in the system carry two lanes of traffic, one in each direction, with pedestrian sidewalks.
The Thousand Islands International Bridge system is a series of five bridges[3] spanning the St. Lawrence River. From south to north ... (Wikipedia)

Have you ever thought of the twins with different ages.... I wonder why we call Rawalpindi a twin city with Islamabad. Hardly seperated by 15 KM and at many places less, actually they lie world apart. Islamabad has existed hardly for 50 years, where are Rawalpindi has existed for centuries, may be thousand of years.
Rawalpindi's charm lies in its traditional, somewhat chaotic subcontinental hustle and bustle atmosphere in its traffic-jammed mostly narrow streets, contrasting quite sharply with the tree-lined alleys, cleanliness and peace of Islamabad.
Rawalpindi does have much to offer for visitors. Specially when you enter the Old City Bazars, Like Bhabra Bazar, Purana Qilla, Bagh Sardaran, the centuries old building tell you the story of this wonderful city's life across the span of times.

This plant and flower grows madly around the Peak Hill gold mine. Last time I uploaded a shot, that was what it was commonly called, a highly toxic plant. As to whether that's its real name, someone else might know. Let me know if you know then we will all know!
The flowers in this article seem to agree!
For thousands of years, this old-growth Forest has changed, adapted and survived. When you visit the Forest, you will walk along Native American hunting trails, see marks left by glaciers, and pass under trees dating back to the American Revolution. The unique beauty and ecological importance of the forest are one of the reasons why the founders selected this site for The New York Botanical Garden in 1895. Today this is the largest uncut expanse of New York’s original wooded landscape.

Trivia: Is there a connection between the Thousand Islands and the salad by that name? Yes!
The history of the dressing dates back to the early days of the century and centers in the small resort village of Clayton, N.Y. In those days a popular fishing guide named George LaLonde, Jr., as his father before him, guided visiting fishermen for black bass and northern pike through the scenic, fish-filled waters of the 1000 Islands.
Unlike his father, George Jr. would serve a different and unusual salad dressing to his fishing parties as part of their shore dinners. On one particular occasion George was guiding a very prominent New York City stage actress of the period named May Irwin and her husband. Miss Irwin, a renowned cook and cookbook authoress in her own right, was particularly impressed with the dressing and asked George for the recipe. The dressing was actually created and made by George's wife Sophia, who was flattered by the request and willingly gave the recipe to Miss Irwin. At the same time Mrs. LaLonde gave the recipe to Mrs. Ella Bertrand, who's family owned the Herald Hotel, one of the most popular hotels in Clayton and where Miss Irwin and her husband stayed during their early vacations in the islands. Mrs. Bertrand prepared the dressing for Miss Irwin and her husband and also added it to the other choices of salad dressing offered to her dining room customers.
It was Miss Irwin who gave it the name "Thousand Island" and it was Mrs. Bertrand, at the Herald Hotel, who first served it to the dining public. Upon her return to New York City Miss Irwin gave the recipe to fellow 1000 Islands summer visitor George C. Boldt, owner of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York, the Bellview Stratford in Philadelphia and also the builder of Boldt Castle on nearby Heart Island. Equally impressed with its flavor, Mr. Boldt directed his world famous maitre d' Oscar Tschirky, to put this dressing from the 1000 Islands on the hotel's menu at once. In doing so Oscar earned credit for introducing the dressing to the "world."

Having an incredible amount of reach allows you to do some unique things with a lens. Zooming in on the moon as it rises is one of them. In this shot I've shot the moon at 600mm and cropped in a little over 50%, meaning that this is more like 1300mm of reach. I've got some cool shots of the moon in full light, but I wanted to share this more moody shots where layers of clouds are drifting in front of the moon. I've given this shot a little bit of a faded look in Exposure X2 to enhance the mood. It was still very yellow at this point, and I've tried to preserve that here. You can see more images that I've taken with the lens here: bit.ly/2dU7diG or view my first look video here: bit.ly/2dn7bBP
