Bledne Skaly (Dwaalrotsen)
De Tafelbergen zijn de enige bergen in Polen met een geologische bouw van platen. Indrukwekkend zijn rotsblokken waartussen ingewikkelde labyrinthen zijn ontstaan. Sommige rotsschuren zijn 12 meter diep. Zandstenen rotsen nemen fantastische vormen aan. Het meest interessant zijn de rotsformaties Dwaalrotsen en de Szczeliniec Wielki, de hoogste top van de Tafelbergen (919 m boven de zeespiegel). Een trap van 665 in de rots gehouwde treden leidt naar de top. Langs de rotsgangen zijn gemarkeerde toeristische routes aangelegd.
Thank you all for your wonderful words, awards, and the group invites. I truly appreciate all of them ♥ :)

Peregrine Falcon - Falco Peregrinus
The peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus), also known as the peregrine, and historically as the duck hawk in North America, is a widespread bird of prey (raptor) in the family Falconidae. A large, crow-sized falcon, it has a blue-grey back, barred white underparts, and a black head. As is typical of bird-eating raptors, peregrine falcons are sexually dimorphic, with females being considerably larger than males. The peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 320 km/h (200 mph) during its characteristic hunting stoop (high-speed dive), making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to a National Geographic TV programme, the highest measured speed of a peregrine falcon is 389 km/h (242 mph).
The peregrine's breeding range includes land regions from the Arctic tundra to the tropics. It can be found nearly everywhere on Earth, except extreme polar regions, very high mountains, and most tropical rainforests; the only major ice-free landmass from which it is entirely absent is New Zealand. This makes it the world's most widespread raptor, and one of the most widely found bird species. In fact, the only land-based bird species found over a larger geographic area is not always naturally occurring, but one widely introduced by humans, the rock pigeon, which in turn now supports many peregrine populations as a prey species. The peregrine is a highly successful example of urban wildlife in much of its range, taking advantage of tall buildings as nest sites and an abundance of prey such as pigeons and ducks. Both the English and scientific names of this species mean "wandering falcon," referring to the migratory habits of many northern populations. Experts recognize 17 to 19 subspecies, which vary in appearance and range; disagreement exists over whether the distinctive Barbary falcon is represented by two subspecies of Falco peregrinus, or is a separate species, F. pelegrinoides. The two species' divergence is relatively recent, during the time of the last ice age, therefore the genetic differential between them (and also the difference in their appearance) is relatively tiny. They are only about 0.6–0.8% genetically differentiated.
While its diet consists almost exclusively of medium-sized birds, the peregrine will occasionally hunt small mammals, small reptiles, or even insects. Reaching sexual maturity at one year, it mates for life and nests in a scrape, normally on cliff edges or, in recent times, on tall human-made structures. The peregrine falcon became an endangered species in many areas because of the widespread use of certain pesticides, especially DDT. Since the ban on DDT from the early 1970s, populations have recovered, supported by large-scale protection of nesting places and releases to the wild.
The peregrine falcon is a well respected falconry bird due to its strong hunting ability, high trainability, versatility, and – in recent years – availability via captive breeding. It is effective on most game bird species, from small to large.

War continues day after day
But our lives go on too
Each in its own place. Each in its own way
The coincidence that I am alive now
To be able to share such a moment with someone
That is the meaning of life
We need Peace!
Thank you for nice meeting♥

I calculated, I uploaded 363 pictures to Flickr in 2021.
I hope that some of them touched your heart and left you with something.
I look back at them and see that each picture is a just snapshot of my wandering days in the in-world, and maybe it is really just a trivial record of my wanderings. But at every moment, I wanted to say something to you, and I made every attempt I could to do so, piece by piece.
Sometimes it took me days to do it, sometimes it was very easy. Some are satisfying, some are not, but all of them are memorable for me.
For most people, all the content on the Internet shines for only a few seconds, a little magic that makes them dream for a moment, a little sweet candy and like a shooting star that will soon be forgotten that it was even there.
But still, people continue to do that. Beyond that series of small moments, as long as someone keeps feeling something.
I feel that my wanderings this year have been very fulfilling, thanks to all your supports.
The many Favs and comments have encouraged me. I really appreciate it.
A shooting star shines strongly for a moment, and then quickly disappears.
How should we live in that moment?

Errance
Devant moi, au loin, des neiges éternelles.
Au-dessus de moi, un ciel improbable
Et une lumière étrange qui semblait venir d’ailleurs.
Sous mes bottes, un sol gelé et chaotique, s’étirant à l’infini.
Cette nature innommable, rude et sauvage,
Me touchait profondément
Et me pressait de trouver refuge en moi.
Et pourtant…
Choisir l’errance du rêveur
Plutôt que l’impatience du voyageur,
C’est ouvrir son esprit au mystérieux, à l’imaginaire, à l’inconnu.
C’est inventer l’invisible;
Donner forme au sensible;
Dialoguer avec les ombres;
Mais surtout, c’est infuser une chaleur poétique à l’existence
Et à l’Histoire.
La route est longue.
Mais je possède de bonnes bottes.

Wandering
In front of me, in the distance, eternal snows.
Above me, an unlikely sky
And a strange light that seemed to come from elsewhere.
Under my boots, a frozen chaotic ground, stretching endlessly.
This unspeakable, harsh and wild nature,
Touched me deeply
And urged me to find refuge in myself
And yet ...
Choose the dreamer's wandering
Rather than the impatience of the traveler,
It is opening your mind to the mysterious, to the imaginary, to the unknown.
It is to invent the invisible;
Give shape to the sensitive;
Dialogue with the shadows;
But above all, it is to infuse a poetic warmth into existence
And to History.
The road is long.
But I have good boots.

Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.
--Ernest Hemingway
STOP the WAR
*:..Silvery K..:* Bloom
Dreamer
Furillen is gone.
The war is going on.
It's always happening somewhere.
Ukraine is not the only one. Wars are always going on all over the world.
I know that if I lament the stupidity of war here, the world will not change immediately.
Many people also know that they don't pay much attention to the words written here.
Some say that art is powerless against war.
But all I can do is make something and make a small voice.
Is it meaningless?
But I don't think people should be indifferent to being in a dangerous situation, exposed to sadness and fear.
Art may not match bullet, but indifference will destroy a lot more than missiles.
And the chain of sadness and hatred will be bigger and deeper, and will eventually swallow us too.
I don't want to stop making something, even if it doesn't make sense.
And I will continue to mutter peace in a small voice.
If I make something and you see it
And you make something and I see it
The small circle of ripples that spreads in this way may change the world little by little.
John Lennon sings
Imagine all the people
Liv'n life in peace
You
You may say I'm dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I stand with Ukraine people. But it's not mean anti Russian people. I am with all who hate war and love peace.
STOP THE WAR.

At Dyrhólaey I took a lot of pictures, but I thought last pic was "Serene and Jade". But I couldn't forget this lovely back. I think this is suitable one for beautiful memories disappear to beyond time.
Thank you Joy
and thank you Dyrhólaey! good bye!
