A two photo pano of June Lake, in the Eastern Sierra. It's my understanding, that because the way the sunlight hits the water and is reflected by the green vegetation in the shallow end, it's green-ish. Because the deep end has no "bottom" there is nothing for the light to reflect and the water shows up blue-ish. So you get two water colors in the same lake.

Two of DB Cargo's Class 67s (or "Skips" as they're widely known) occupy track to the north of Peterborough. 67005 "Queen's Messenger" prepares to back onto LNER service 1D16 (the 1105 from London King's Cross to Leeds), while 67018 "Keith Heller" idles in the background on standby.
Three giraffes bow together in synchronized choreography for their morning drink at the waterhole next to our lodge in Hwange Park, Zimbabwe. Because of their long necks, they must spread their front legs widely and bend deeply in order to drink. Usually one or two would be up watching for danger while the others drank, but in this moment, all three bent together, providing me with one of my favorite pictures from the trip.
A Yellow Hornbill is perched in the tree behind them surveying the scene, a large termite mound can be seen in the background, and yes, you can definitely see that many elephants have been here as well.

I just returned home to the smoke after a few days in Colorado visiting the newest grandbaby. She was gorgeous, of course! The fire's now 70% contained, so we're beginning to feel a bit safer. The mornings are still very smoky. Thanks again to everyone for your concerns, and thanks to the 5,000 firefighters battling the huge blaze.
18/08/2014. Volvo B10M's 20685 and 20697 are seen here parked alongside each other in Blackwood bus station.
20685 was new to Stagecoach West in a batch 10 which were split between Swindon and Cheltenham depot's.
She was transfered to Aberdare depot in November 2011 after Merthyr Tydfil based 20826 was scrapped after being involved in a road traffic accident. As a semi coach seated vehicle, she was allocated to service 172/72 after a repaint.
With the arrival of new Scania Enviro 300's in October 2012, she found herself transfered to Brynmawr depot and allocated to services X15 and Tuesday's only X74.
With the closure of Brynmawr depot on the 21st July this year, she came to Blackwood depot where she joined fellow B10M 20697 on school and staff shuttle duties.
20697 was new to Stagecoach in Cambridge as 317 and used on Park and Ride services.
She was transfered to Brecon outstation for use on school contracts. In August 2013, she was transfered further down the valley's to Blackwood depot for use on the town free Asda bus service.
Having been displaced from her role on the A1 in January this year by a Volvo B10BLE from Cwmbran, she received a repaint back into Stagecoach livery and was re-allocated to school and staff shuttle duties.
She does however, still put in the occasional appearance on local services in and around the town.
With these two fine beasts parked next to each other, it was impossible to resist taking a photograph!
Fantastic vehicles.
Another shot from this afternoon's Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk. There's another version of this snap - and a little article about it - on my blog.
That is closest species I can find, the legs look the right colour & markings look like a male photo in the book. In our local wood.

I can't recall the name of the variety. BTW, lens is actually an old Nikon 55mm Micro f/3.5 attached to a modified TC-16A.
Two Rambler Americans are part of a Christmas display in the late afternoon in Queen Creek Arizona. It's been many a year since I've seen two Ramblers adjacent to one another.
By 4 years after this photo was taken, the adjacent road was widened to 2 lanes in each direction with concrete curbs and pavement covering much of the grassy area at the lower right.
Inverleith Park, Edinburgh
A "bench and, perhaps in particular, the park bench, has become the symbol of the democratic city — of free, accessible and equitable public space provided by the city for its citizens. It is a place to be private in public, a small space in the melee of the metropolis where it is acceptable to do nothing, to consume nothing, to just be. A truly free bench. "
