Another nocturnal faff to appease my creative inner child. Many thanks to my old pal Nihal for his invaluable patience and assistance.
No matter how large or how small a given space may be there’s always room for colors to share that space. A tree has so much space to share with lots of vivid colors. Look at the colors or shades that Autumn provides us at its peak. A Maple tree is a good example. On a smaller scale look at the most colorful fish in an aquarium. One fish can house several colors within its body. Though many flowers appear to represent basically one color such as a Red Rose, a Yellow Rose etc., this rose caught my attention in that there are no less than two beautiful “Colors Sharing Space” Nature continues to amaze and impress us with miracles (plants, animals and people) that come in many colors yet sharing small spaces. Thanks for viewing my work.

On the way home from coastal BC in September, I stopped at one of my favourite provincial parks, Manning. This was where did some of my earliest subalpine hiking and backpacking, in 1975. It has always been a good location for mule deer, grouse, Clark's nutcrackers, Canada jays, chipmunks, frogs, owls, marmots, pikas, and other wildlife, and this time the pikas did not disappoint. The day was dull, with heavy clouds that blotted out the views, so very few people were present. I still had a long road ahead of me, with friends to meet in Banff the next day, so I could only spare an hour and a half in the meadows, but I was happy to come home with this, shot from my rolling red Toyota car blind.

Happy New Year 2020!!
Upon Reflection - Chiswick Park Underground Station, London, UK
These lakes near Drei Zinnen Hutte looked so enticing, that I went down there to take photos rather than relax like the rest of our group.
Day five was from Durrenstein Hutte/Rifugio Vallandro to Rifugio A. Locatelli/Dreizinnenhütte, another big day of almost 20km with descents totalling 865m and ascents totalling 1237m.
After leaving the hut, we had a gentle climb to alpine meadows, then down a gully and an aided trail around Strudelkopf and steeply down to a main road which we crossed over before heading along route 102 and the long ascent up to Tre Cime di Lavaredo - the famous three peaks.
I process my photos with Lightroom as well as Skylum's Luminar and find it easy to use with great results. Here is a link if anyone is interested in trying it out and with a $US10 discount: skylum.grsm.io/janetteasche8660
Os deseo a todos un Año Nuevo lleno de paz,amor,salud y felicidad.
I wish you all a New Year full of peace, love, health and happiness

Cotopaxi is on the right (5,897 m / 19,347 ft);
Chimborazo is in the middle (6,263 m / 20,547 ft);
El Altar is on the left (5,319 m / 17,451 ft).
In fact, the valley owns eight volcanoes inside, one the reasons Alexander von Humboldt named the region "Avenue of Volcanoes".
When many think of Ecuador, we often think of Galapagos and the equator, but it’s not always the case that Ecuador is thought of in tandem with the majestic Avenue of the Volcanoes that it sits along. That’s right, Ecuador is full-on Volcano Country! But fear not, for this does not by any means detract from how impressively safe the country is to visit! If anything, it adds tremendously to the overall geographic and scenic beauty that’s found throughout. Ecuador is home to 47 volcanoes in total (both active and extinct), with 15 in volcanoes Galapagos and 32 on the mainland.
The small country is the third in number of volcanoes, it only loses to the continent countries, USA and Russia, but it does not lose in altitude, the highest in the world.

With its elevation of 5,023 metres (16,480 ft), Tungurahua just over tops the snow line (about 4,900 metres (16,100 ft)).
Tungurahua's top is snow-covered and did feature a small summit glacier which melted away after the increase of volcanic activity in 1999.

The Garganta de Fogo Volcano, its crater ...
It has a 183 meters/600 feet wide crater.
Most of the volcano is covered by snow.

*Got my fourth 1,000 faves on September 13th, 2020.
My first view of the Avenue of the Volcanoes at 6:52 am (a 4h58m climb) from the Refugio (Hut).
There are several volcanoes, but the most striking are the Chimborazo on your right (I will climb it tomorrow), the highest in the world and Cotopaxi, the second highest volcano in Ecuador (I climbed it in the first 24 hours).
***
Climbing an active volcano is complicated.
The crater is just below me. It took years for the Ecuadorian government to release climbing permits.
Me knowing the risks and signing the papers. It is a great pleasure for Pachamama to accept me, agradiseyki.

Tungurahua 5,023 metres (16,480 ft) is located in the Cordillera Oriental of the Andes of central Ecuador, 140 kilometres (87 mi) south of the capital Quito.
Nearby notable mountains are Chimborazo (6,310 metres (20,700 ft)) and El Altar (5,319 metres (17,451 ft)). It rises above the small thermal springs town of Baños de Agua Santa (1,800 metres (5,900 ft)) which is located at its foot 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) to the north.
Other nearby towns are Ambato (30 kilometres (19 mi) to the northwest), Baños and Riobamba (30 kilometres (19 mi) to the southwest).

9-shot, 180° stitched panorama of the Shanghai Shipyard Bridge. A dual steel bridge at the former "Shanghai No. 1 Shipyard" location in Pudong Lujiazui.
The bridge has been constructed over the exits of the former dry docks and is illuminated red at night. This is a part of the northern extension of the Lujiazui Riverside Promenade along the Huangpu River. A stretch of riverside that has been occupied by warehouses, quays and shipyards is converted into a park-like recreation area.
With the development of the Lujiazui Central Financial District Phase II in full swing, the riverside will be the recreational area of this mega-project.
On the right, in the distant background, is the Shanghai International Cruise Center, the downtown berthing point for large cruise ships.

After a massive star exploded, it left behind this supernova remnant observed by Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Hubble Space Telescope. The Chandra data (red, green and blue) show multimillion-degree gas and the blast wave from the supernova. The light brown region in the upper right of the remnant is a dense cloud of gas and dust that reflects optical light detected by Hubble.
This image is part of a collection of archiveed images made by “astronomy artist” Judy Schmidt, to help recognize #ArchivesMonth. All of the objects in this new archive collection are located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, or LMC, which is a small satellite galaxy to Milky Way.
This year, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory celebrates its 20th year in space exploring the extreme universe.
