Second part of my attempts to shoot cheap watches like expensive ones (in this case, a $13 Chinese watch)
I found this for $14 in a Target. I needed a large, easy to read watch to use as an exam timer. This worked beautifully for that purpose. Now I kind of want to put it to more fun and fashionable use.

Equipped with a Timex Weekender wristwatch for, appropriately, a weekend hike on the Raven Trail in Kanab, Utah USA.
The Timex Weekender, model T2N745, does exactly what I want a wristwatch to do: it keeps time accurately, displays the time clearly, and I never have to think about it or worry about it. This isn't a fashion or "jewelry" watch to pamper, it's a functional watch to use. Through dirt, dust, mud, and water it does the job. Not too big so it doesn't get in the way, but not so small as to be hard to read, with no extra buttons and no excess gadgetry to clutter up the face, not even a date window, the simple, minimalist Weekender is definitely one of my favorite wristwatches ever.
Series: Timex Weekender
Model: T2N745
Case material: stainless steel
Movement: quartz
Diameter: 38mm
Strap: 20mm
The Forbidden City are full of tourist, of course, but also full of workers in charge to keep the place clean all the time. They sometimes take a break, not to enjoy the beauty of the place, but to study the behavior of visitors. Seeing them frozen in the middle of a tourist group gave the impression of people who seems to be lost even if they are supposed to play locally! A hight contrast between the people who come here to enjoy and discover for a couple of hours, ant the others who are here every day, to work.
This is China.
Through the mist we stumbled on Sigöldufoss, a waterfall along the Tungnaá in the Highlands near Hrauneyjar, Iceland. The falls are located in the natural channel of the Tungnaá between two hydroelectric dams and their reservoirs. The dams are part of an extensive hydroelectric project in the upper basin of the Þjorsá. Although the upstream power plant often siphons off the majority of the river below the lake Sigöldulón, the day we were there a good volume of water was going over the falls in 2 distinct segments. The falls plunge can range from 33 feet to 36 feet high depending on the water volume and occurs in a 200 foot wide horseshoe-shaped recess. The color of the water in the Tungnaá is due the fact that it is usually very silt-laden. Downstream the river follows a short canyon and discharges into the inlet of the lake Hrauneyjalón.
Every 30 min, there is a show outside the mall of Dubai, fountains and music draws a crowd every time.
I did not get close to the show, so I decided to shoot the spectators

In the Parque Kenedy in Miraflores, Peru, I will commonly count about 100-130 cats. They feed them and they are well treated. It is something of a source of civic pride that they are well cared for. Many of them hang about the Virgen Milagrosa Cathedral… Who knows but that they feel responsible for it somehow.
One again in the small sugar cane growing township of Silkwood, Queensland, the local Tully Mill has a sub-depot to house one of its locomotives during the cane harvesting season. I have no idea of it's identification, it is well locked away. Back on the road though, the signs as I have shown before are still of steam locomotives which haven't been used for over 50 years. Still, if you close you eyes one might steam out from a field of cane, heading for the mill every moonlit night. The ghost train!
After the bear took over this moose carcass, the wolf pack laid in the trees nearby and mainly the younger wolves tried several times to move back in with little success. Taken remotely with Canon 7D.
