Yes, yes. I know. I messed it up and didn't upload photos on the weekend. I'm so sorry. I was at my parents home and we did a few things in the city center. And possibly my boyfriend and I bought two birds. :D So, I actually had other things in mind than uploading photos.
So back to the pic. I thought that this barrel with red soil or whatever looked really spooky. It was also on the area of a lost place in Bavaria. And as everything was so rotten and forgotten, this barrel looked like a warning to me. I think it's nothing toxic or hazardous, otherwise it would have been removed, I'm sure.

Estuarine crocodile
Derby wharf on King Sound
Derby, West Coast, Australia
estuarine crocodile, (Crocodylus porosus), also called saltwater crocodile or saltie, crocodile species inhabiting brackish waters of wetlands and marine intertidal environments from Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar east to the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu and south to Australia’s northern coast. The estuarine crocodile is the largest reptile in the world, and the species is known for its aggressive nature, as shown by numerous attacks on people and livestock each year.
Derby is a town in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. At the 2016 census, Derby had a population of 3,325 with 47.2% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent. Along with Broome and Kununurra, it is one of only three towns in the Kimberley to have a population over 2,000. Located on King Sound, Derby has the highest tides in Australia, with the differential between low and high tide reaching 11.8 metres (39 ft).
King Sound is a large gulf in northern Western Australia. It expands from the mouth of the Fitzroy River, one of Australia's largest watercourses, and opens to the Indian Ocean. It is about 120 kilometres (75 mi) long, and averages about 50 kilometres (31 mi) in width. The port town of Derby lies near the mouth of the Fitzroy River on the eastern shore of King Sound. King Sound has the highest tides in Australia, and amongst the highest in the world, reaching a maximum tidal range of 11.8 metres (39 ft) at Derby.[1] The tidal range and water dynamic were researched in 1997–1998
The monster is loose!
Happy Halloween! I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

This sign is one of many posted along the Puddle Valley Highway in northwestern Utah. That road runs northward from Interstate 80 Exit 62 to Lakeside, bisecting a military installation known as the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR). Travel on the county road is legal but travel behind the fence is not (DUH!). I was going to Lakeside.
The sign is out of focus because I concentrated on the background, which I believe contains munition storage bunkers. The sign says:
"U.S.A.F.
Bombing and Gunnery Range
Aerial Bombing Live Ammunition
U.S. Air Force Installation
Anyone entering this area without explicit
permission of the installation commander
can be prosecuted to the full extent of the law."

Taken for the ODC theme "In the car" I have quite a practical car, so could not think of how to make it even vaguely interesting, so decided to take my macro lens on an explore of the car :-)
Any ideas what the one in the comments is?, all I have done he is change the white balance to "tungsten" and lit the part with a coloured torch, which I think gave it much more of an abstract feel.
Well, I did manage to get out for a good long walk this morning but was aware of the weather warnings we have been receiving .. Storm Corrie is coming our way!!
I thought I'll be okay!!
Stay Safe and Healthy Everyone!
Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... Thanks to you all!
I am surprised to see the two red spikes as it is not usually seen displayed by a caterpillar, unless threaten, accidentally I saw it popped-out when I moved a leaf from its body to have a clear shot .. and whah..... an awesome display of warning from this gentle leaf eater...

I found this notice on the ground nearly twelve years ago, so far no-one has called … just as well, I haven't got a spare £20,000 :(
I was told here that it comes from scaffolding.
The hereios of the We're Here! group have paid a visit to the Careful now group today.

A storm warning for me is beginning to mean, "grab your camera and head to the open fields." I saw the warnings on TV, looked outside, and said, "why not?" I headed to the edge of town (smart enough to drive this time) and shot the sky until the heavy rain started to fall. I hopped back in the truck to drive home and it began to hail. But it stopped ten minutes later and the clouds were getting even more interesting so I headed out again. I drove East this time for a better spot. I shot until the clouds broke up and passed on over. I headed home in yet another hail storm but got this shot and the thrill of experiencing a little taste of natures wrath.

While taking photos at the file shoot I saw this sign on the wall and thought it was really funny. They obviously had uncontrolled children at the venue.
The hill's commanding height above the Amber and Derwent Valleys, close to the site of Stone Age settlements which lie just to the North East, is reputed to have been the site of a beacon fire which signalled the sighting of the Spanish Armada in the English Channel in 1588 and where Drake's Victory was celebrated. This structure is next to the Crich Stand.
Every year it's the same. When the days begin to shorten we start discussing our holiday, which is mostly in December. And every year the answer to Hans' question of where I would like to go is met with the same answer: Africa! For the last 3 years it has been the gorgeous Mala Mala area in South Africa. A private game reserve I've really lost my heart to.
Also every year Hans protests and asks me if I think that 'money grows on our backs'.. :-)
So, I wait…. And I stay quiet (with difficulties, I can tell you, but still..) Until maybe in November the man decides… :-)
That has worked fine with us for the last couple of years because I know that in the end, Africa’s call will grow louder in his head and he will give in..
But this year it has been made very very hard for me to wait until Hans is finally ready. It started in April when Mala Mala’s ranger Dean sent me an email with gorgeous shots of the Kikelezi Female Leopard’s new born triplets. And just this morning, when we were having breakfast with some good friends of ours that spent the weekend, I received an email of Max, who is visiting Mala Mala at the moment, sending a teaser preview of what he had shot during last night’s game drive… (although the man is perfectly horrible for frustrating me like that (:-)), you might want to keep an eye out for his stream by the time he’s back from his trip, because I know there are gorgeous shots to come!)
Ladies, any ideas on how I can make Hans decide quicker?
Above is a shot of the same Kikelezi Female Leopard. She was guarding her cub while hyenas were patiently trotting up and down underneath, hoping that the cub would drop the prey from the tree mum had hauled it up in. One snarl was enough to make the hyenas keep a safe distance.. She really is one hell of a leopard lady!!
Ah. and no flash used. Just the flashlight of the tracker. 1000 iso and 1/125sec.

I only did one short hike while on Maui. That was down to see to two blowholes on the north coast of the island.
"Warning. Stay clear of the blowhole. You can get sucked in and killed. It's not a water park."
From Mauiguidebook.com
In Maui it has been customary to allow the careless free control over their destiny. But if you come from a place where they would put a barrier around dangers, then they would most definitely have one around the Nakalele Blowhole.
Mount Warning - view from Gold Coast Airport. Waiting for my flight. Went back a week later and drove out to try and capture it on paper - shrouded in cloud - a very special place for Aboriginal people and you can sense its strength.
Aboriginal name Wollumbin, this is a view from the rim of the Tweed Volcano erosion caldera. Mt Warning (named by James Cook) was formed from the volcanic plug of the now-gone Tweed Volcano.
