I'm back from another Caribean cruise - - wife had a sales conference - - her retirement gig is starting to be way too busy !!
Did get to see a few birds flying along side the boat enjoying the drafts - - Nazca and Brown Boobys as well as 1 Magnificent Frigatebird .
Here's a Nazca Booby flying by, just before spotting something down in the water
This is Reynisfjara beach - Iceland. Reynisfjara is a world-famous black-sand beach found on the South Coast of Iceland, which features basalt columns and the dramatic Reynisdrangar sea stacks. It's beside Vik i Myrdal, the southernmost village on the mainland of Iceland.
The sand at Reynisfjara is black due to its volcanic origins. Formed from cooled lava that flowed into the ocean during eruptions, the lava fragments were broken down over time by the powerful waves, creating the distinctive black sand beach we see today.
The beach is also known to be dangerous due to 'sneaker' waves but despite this (and the most horrendous winds when we visited) we encountered this somewhat excited tourist who asked my wife to film him before proceeding to dance around without a care in the world! And no this isnt a colour splash shot - everything was grey apart from my wifes coat.

My wife and I spend the past five days with long time camping friends at the Anza Borrego Desert State Park. I think it's some kind of a law that if you go to a desert park you have to take a sunrise picture.
Other sunrise pictures that I've taken can be seen in my Sunrise/Sunset album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/albums/72157606955366056
Other desert picture that I've taken over the years can be3 seen in my Desert Album.
Got the wife to pose for me before going out on the town. Then started to play around a bit using the remote. Can you call this self portrait for two?
Used 580EX speed lite for fill.
My wife recently got back from Santa Fe, visiting her sister. On some of their sight seeing they stopped at this chapel.
El Santuario de Chimayó is a Roman Catholic church in Chimayó, New Mexico, USA. This santuario (Spanish for "sanctuary"), a National Historic Landmark, is famous for the story of its founding and as a contemporary pilgrimage site. It receives almost 300,000 visitors per year and has been called "no doubt the most important Catholic pilgrimage center in the United States."
In the early 19th Century, nineteen families lived in what was then called El Potrero de Chimayó (potrero means pasture). The land where the Santuario now stands belonged to Don Fernando Abeyta, one of the first members of Los Hermanos de la Fraternidad Piadosa de Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno (the Penitentes) in the area. Also, he was probably devoted to the Christ of Esquipulas, a pilgrimage site in Guatemala where the clay is ascribed healing power. A nephew of Don Fernando was christened Juan de Esquipulas in 1805.
Fernando Abeyta built a small chapel to the Christ of Esquipulas on the present site around 1810. On November 15, 1813, he wrote to Father Sebastián Álvarez, the parish priest of Santa Cruz de la Cañada, asking him to write to the Episcopal See of Durango for permission to build a bigger church in which the people of El Potrero could worship Jesus as he appeared at Esquipulas and could hear Mass. The next day, Fr. Álvarez wrote the letter, mentioning that cures were reported and many pilgrims were arriving. On February 8, 1814, Francisco Fernández Valentín, Vicar General of the Diocese of Durango, wrote back with permission. By 1816 the chapel was replaced by the present church.
Some say that before the Spaniards arrived, a hot spring that then flowed near the site was sacred to the Tewa Indians for its healing powers.
One version of the legend says that during Holy Week, Abeyta (or a friar) saw a light shining from the hillside and dug the crucifix up with his bare hands. He turned it over to Fr. Álvarez, who took it to the Chimayó church, but the crucifix mysteriously returned to the spot where Abeyta found it. After the third time this happened, Álvarez and Abeyta decided to build a chapel on the spot to house the crucifix.
Another version says Abeyta was watching his sheep and contemplating his blessings, though he was sick, when a vision of his patron saint, San Esquipula, beckoned to him. He went to the place where the saint had appeared and knelt; he was cured immediately. Other people also were cured there, and Abeyta built the chapel in thanks.
A third version says that the crucifix had belonged to a priest from Esquipulas who accompanied the first Spanish settlers in Chimayó. He was killed by Indians and buried in Chimayó. A flood of the Santa Cruz River (a small tributary of the Rio Grande) in the spring of 1810 uncovered the body and the crucifix. People who remembered the priest dedicated the shrine to the Christ of Esquipulas

Today is our 14th year anniversary so it's only fitting that I post a photo of the wife and I.
I met her at a SamGoody store in 1996. We both worked together and like I tell my wife, I put on my Casanova moves on her and 14 years later we're happily married w 2 wonderful kids....LOL
Life has been great having her by my side as my best friend, wife, partner and mother of my kids. Marrying her was the best choice I've made in my life. Not only is she a fantastic woman but her family are amazing people that I consider myself lucky to be a part of their lives. She's the rock of our family and my everyday inspiration to become a better person in life. I love you Bebes and thank you for giving me 14 wonderful years of my life and 2 beautiful children. I can't wait to redo this photo again in the future when we both look old and crusty....lol
Happy Anniversary Bebes
My wife and I took a ride to see the fall colors a week ago. We drove along US 64 through Cashiers and past Highlands, NC. The colors were at their peak and they were remarkable. We stopped at Quarry Falls and I snapped off a few photos. Here is one of them. Hope you are enjoying your autumn season.
Thanks for viewing my photos. Comments are always welcome.

My wife's photo of me but my edit. You see that I am dangling my mitts. They allow me to use my phone or camera without dropping them. By the way, they have batteries and are heated. Also by the way, it has been so cold recently that even thirty seconds with bare hands just about causes my digits to drop off.

My wife brought my attention to this field which somebody had seen and I decided to take the advantage of seeing this beautiful gift from God. The accompanying shots were taken over a period of several hours ending as the sun set. I hope you enjoy seeing them as much as I did taking them.
Chris bravely offered to gain a higher vantage point to get a better angle of the winery I was trying to photograph, and while she was up there, it would have been a waste not to do something silly and record it for posterity.

my wife tanaya and her friend debarati looks out of the darjeeling himalayan railway toy train ride. this runs from darjeeling to ghoom. this ride has been declared world heritage site by unesco.
it was raining and they were really enjoying the atmosphere around.
A friend asked to see the full length version of this dress so here it.
It's one of those dresses I wouldn't have gone for but my wife picked it out held it up and said that's nice. so in our world that is code for you should buy this :-)
I wasn't sure but for £9.00 I thought why not.
Looks like she knows what's best once again and I should have worn for Saturday night in Manchester but I thought it was too short. funny this is the dress I did wear was probably shorter lol.
The shoes work nicely aswell and guess what? they belonged to my other half until she gave them to me. Happy days :-)
Yeah I have small feet
Jean (wife) and Jasper (dog) had a little sit-down during our hike today at Lost Dutchman State Park. It's such a beautiful area. And I thought these 2 spruced it up even more. Rugged desert scenes right out of the Old West
Northwestern America and New York
============================
After 5 weeks of extensive traveling on the other side of the big pool, I'm (finally) back to Switzerland. An exciting journey and a large photo tour ended. My wife and I visited several national parks within the USA and Canada. We started in New York and travelled from Portland to Salt Lake City along the Rocky Mountains, spending 2 weeks in Canada in between.
I captured 72GB of photos. Showing all of this would be impossible. I will start with an overview over the journey by presenting one picture a day. I will choose the most significant picture of every day of the journey. I will also add a description of the place so you're able to find those beautiful places if you'd like to.
And for all those who are expecting typical David-Kaplan-style pictures, here a note: During vacation I don't have so much time for planning my photo trips and waiting for the best light. Many of the following pictures may be kind of a snapshot. Please be aware of that when writing constructive critique. But I'm always interested in some feedback because I like to learn.
Day 10: Wells Gray Provincial Park
===========================
Our first park in Canada was only a Provincial Park, but Wells Gray is world famous for two reasos:
1) It has some of the highest waterfalls of the whole country.
2) It has also the most aggressive Mosquitoes far and wide. Those beasts are so aggressive that you cannot escape them. They follow you whereever you run and they bite you through your t-shirt or even your jeans. It's very important that you always use the special anti-bug spray from a local supermarket and use it every 30mins.
Oh yeah, those falls are really impressive, specially the 462ft (141m) high Helmcken Falls. Unfortunately you have only a good view to the falls from a distant viewpoint.
Many of your will remember the Biblical story of Lot's wife who turned back to look at the city of Sodom and was turned into a pillar of salt. Well, this is possibly a prophetic version of what would happen today, a mountain of salt.
I have just been choosing a few random photos from our trip and this is today's. With a sense of some frustration.
South of the Central Queensland city of Rockhampton, a road leads down to the coast to a locality called Port Alma. It once had a goods only railway (now long closed) to what was theoretically Rockhampton's port but it never really got off the ground. It's at the end of a road that crosses kilometres of mud flats. It does have a wharf and there was even a ship when we arrived after being stopped three times by those annoying traffic lights controlling road works. There were no cars on the road but we still had to sit and wait...six times in all of course for the return journey. I was surprised to see a ship but I believe it was loading the only product of the area for export - you guessed it, salt.
Many of the mudflats have been made into large evaporation ponds and large quantities of salt are produced as you can see. Last time we came down to Port Alma and the reason for today's trip is that much of the edge of the road was lined with massive quantities of pink tinged salt in strange formations and was quite a fascinating sight. But today, not only did we start out in a pea souper of a fog, the first this winter, got trapped by the roadworks on both this and later the main highway south but, apart from the salt already won as depicted in the shot, all of the roadside formations and real pillars of salt had entirely disappeared. Not a grain in sight. I could literally stand in it years ago, nothing at all this time except mud and mangroves and distant water filled evaporation ponds or pans. But, there is always a bright side, I did find out that it is still a working port of sorts and we saw this dazzling hill of salt with rusty bucket loader (or whatever they are called) working on it. Or would have, except it was a public holiday and the works were closed......so what were all those road workers doing. Giving away their day off? Hard, dedicated Aussie workers.....cough, cough!
I wonder what happens if there is a lot of rain, does the salt get dissolved and run back to the ponds and they start all over again? That will have to wait for another day!
Port Alma, Queensland.
