ATTORNEY: Doctor, how many of your autopsies have you
performed on dead people?
WITNESS: All of them. The live ones put up too much of a fight.
Giant pine stands in silent witness to an amazing display of northern lights that began the night before and now into the early morning hours of 3/24/23. I wonder how many times this tree has stood in the colorful glow in the night sky over its lifetime. For me it's a night I won't soon forget. Tomahawk, WI (Lincoln County).
Inspired by all the beautiful woodland images I've seen recently, thought I'd pop out to the spinney. Not entirely sure what I'm doing yet, but there was some nice light on these trees for a moment, before the sunset behind me.

Links to ' The Proselytizers ' from 2015

Firstly Happy new year to all of you!!! For me 2011 in terms of photography was all about starting out, learning the techniques from magazines, books, websites, other peoples photos etc and then practicing them for the first time. So 2011 was more revolution (as in prior to 2011 i wasn't interested in photography, mainly for the lack of a camera which is pretty important to photography :P), this will hopefully mean 2012 will be more evolution where i can start to develop maybe a style that suits me.
So the first photo I post for 2012 is carrying on with the same theme of the shots I got at Dawlish, long exposure black and white photography. Which I have quickly become a fan off, mind you this is not to see I have waved goodbye to colour as I'm currently processing the pictures of the sunset I witnessed while in Bournemouth after I got these shots. So throughout 2012 expect to see much more B&W long exposure stuff but also hopefully plenty of colour shots to.
Anyway thats all im going to say for now, so enjoy :)
Random Note: Keep Clear Of THE Groynes would make more sense but I wrote it how the sign wrote it, no particular reason :P

Hongkongers opposed to an interpretation of the Basic Law by Beijing’s top lawmaking body took to the streets to voice their anger with the central government.
Placed in the middle of an eminently cave place, Segesta's former Greek city seems protected by the shepherds' herds and now for the tourists.
It’s origin is still uncertain and an area of discussions among the historians.
The thesis that has prevailed till now is that Segesta was populated by the elimi, a people that was here previous to the Greeks, that had Hellenized the accession from the XIIth a.c, when they arfrived into Sicily.
From 580 a.c. there is had witness of the continuous disputes with the people of Selinunte's rival colony that finished with the destruction of the last one together with Gela and Himera in 409 a.c. for the support that finally the Carthaginians offered Segesta.
Later, obblied by Syracuse to rebel against Cártago, it finished destroyed in 306 a.c.
From what nowadays it is possible to recognize of the Greek Segesta, the Doric temple stands out especially.
In spite of its greatness and its perfect condition of conservation the temple would be unfinished possibly for the shortage of resources due to the war between Segesta and Saliunte that would force to postpone its completion.
Nevertheless, nowadays there is certain consensus on the theory that promulgates that it’s not really a temple, but of a colonnade raised to solemnize an already sacred place for the elimi.
In any case the set is formed by 36 columns crowned by a smooth architrave and a Doric frieze with measuring 61×26 meters.
A beauty to be visited

TEMPIO DI SAGESTA
Situata in mezzo ad un paraggio eminentemente rupestre, l'antica città greca di Segesta sembra tutelata per greggi di pastori ed ora per i turisti.
La sua origine è ancora incerta e faretto di discussioni tra gli storiografi.
Fino ad ora la tesi che ha prevalso è che Segesta fu popolato per i Elimi, un paese anteriore ai greci che avessero elenizati l'insediamento dal XII a.c, quando arrivarono in Sicilia.
Dal 580 a.c. si ha certeza delle continue dispute con la colonia di Selinunte che finì con la sua distruzione insieme a Gela e Himera nel 409 a.c. per l'appoggio che finalmente i cartaginesi offrirono a Segesta.
Posteriormente, vedendosi obbligata per Siracusa a ribellarsi contro Cártago, finì distrutta nel 306 a.c.
Di quello che attualmente può riconoscersi della greco Segesta sottolinea soprattutto il tempio dorico.
A dispetto della sua grandiosità ed il suo perfetto stato di conservazione il tempio sarebbe incompiuto possibilmente per la scarsità di risorse per la guerra tra Segesta e Saliunte che obbligherebbe a posporre il suo finalización.
Tuttavia, c'è attualmente un certo consenso sulla teoria che promulga che non si tratta realmente di un tempio, bensì di un colonnato alzato per solennizzare già un posto rifugio per i élimos.
In qualsiasi caso l'insieme è formato di 36 colonne incoronate per un'architrave liscia ed un fregio dorico e misura 61×26 metri
Una belleza da visitare.

TEMPLO DE SEGESTA
Situada en medio de un paraje eminentemente rupestre, la antigua ciudad griega de Segesta parece tutelada por rebaños de pastores y ahora por los turistas.
Su origen es aún incierto y foco de discusiones entre los historiadores.
La tesis que ha prevalecido hasta ahora es que Segesta fue poblado por los élimos, un pueblo anterior a los griegos, que helenizaron el asentamiento desde el XII a.c, cuando llegaron a Sicilia.
Desde el 580 a.c. se tiene constancia de las continuas disputas con la colonia de Selinunte que terminó con su destrucción junto con Gela e Himera en el 409 a.c. por el apoyo que finalmente los cartagineses ofrecieron a Segesta.
Posteriormente, viéndose obligada por Siracusa a rebelarse contra Cártago, acabó destruida en el 306 a.c.
De lo que actualmente se puede reconocer de la griega Segesta destaca sobre todo el templo dórico.
Pese a su grandiosidad y su perfecto estado de conservación el templo estaría inacabado posiblemente por la escasez de recursos por la guerra entre Segesta y Saliunte que obligaría a posponer su finalización.
Sin embargo, actualmente hay cierto consenso sobre la teoría que promulga que no se trata realmente de un templo, sino de una columnata levantada para solemnizar un lugar ya sagrado para los élimos.
En cualquier caso el conjunto lo forman 36 columnas coronadas por un arquitrabe liso y un friso dórico con unas medidas de 61×26 metros
Una belleza que debe visitarse,

On the morning of December 12, 1985 an Arrow Air DC-8 carrying a crew of 8 and 248 passengers, stalled, crashed and burned, killing all aboard in the deadliest aviation accident on Canadian soil.
At the crash site, 'The Silent Witness Memorial' statue, depicts an American soldier holding the hands of a boy and girl. The children are each holding an olive branch , indicative of the peacekeeping mission of the 101st Airborne Division on the Sinai Peninsula.

The temptation from the rich full colors was no effect to them. They keep standing still and just becoming the witness.
The only witnesses to the tragedy of the island El Fronton are only the birds that inhabit it today.
This is the first in this series of images I was privileged to witness on this day in the wetlands.
I came upon this little group and these 2 were off by themselves biting each other and holding on to there beaks as shown. It became pretty intense as you will see, and hope you find it as interesting as I did.
Hope the weekend was a good one as your days ahead will be, and thanks for the visit.
It always inspires me to witness the sunrise, in solitude, in the middle of the emptiness of the field.

Seen from nearly 11,200' on top of Hardscrabble Mountain in Eagle, CO.
Such a beautiful thing to witness.
Nice to bring out some smiles in my street photography. This was shot from the hip with my camera hanging from my neck and pointing ahead. I stood still using my cell phone to my ear and making a pretend call in which I started shouting and waving my other hand about, while my other hand was continually pressing the shutter button. The women obviously thought my antics were amusing while not realising I was photographing them.
Not much in the way of reflections this morning as the tide was way out....but plenty of colour in the sky :)
A witness cairn was erected in 1997 to commemorate the arrival of the Christian missionary St. Ninian to these shores, and pilgrims are encouraged to place stones with personal messages onto a rock cairn. These cairns are sited in the remains of a building used to house the Isle of Whithorn lifeboat. Stones are constantly being added and include beloved pets as well as humans.
The long ruined 13th Century St Ninian’s chapel can be seen in the background.
Isle of Whithorn, Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland.
Decided to run around the headland from Narrabeen to Turrimetta. Thankfully I made it in time to witness this short burst of sunrise colour.

Witnessed some really bizarre behavior here. This much smaller buck approached the larger one. Repeatedly lowered and raised his head as if he was acknowledging the bigger buck's dominance. They touched noses and then the smaller one engaged in a sparring match. The bigger buck could have easily knocked him off his feet, but played very gently with him. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
