During sunset, a cloud flew in in an amazing shape (a bird, a dragon, and maybe an angel ...)
A little understanding of the physics of cloud formation underscores the complexity of the atmosphere and sheds light on why predicting weather for more than a few days is such a challenge.
Six types of clouds you can see and how they can help you understand the weather.
1) Cumulus clouds - On a sunny day, rays warm the earth, which heats the air located directly above it. The heated air rises upward due to convection and forms cumulus clouds. These “good weather” clouds are like cotton wool. If you look at the sky filled with cumulus clouds, you can see that they have a flat bottom, located at the same level for all clouds. At this altitude, air rising from ground level cools down to the dew point. It usually doesn't rain from cumulus clouds, which means the weather will be good.
2) Cumulonimbus clouds.
Small cumulus clouds do not rain, but if they grow and grow in height, it is a sign that heavy rain is coming soon. This often happens in summer when morning cumulus clouds turn into cumulonimbus during the day. Cumulonimbus clouds often have a flat top. Air convection occurs inside such a cloud, and it gradually cools until it reaches the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. At this moment, it loses its buoyancy and can no longer rise higher. Instead, it spreads out to the sides, forming the characteristic anvil shape.
3) Cirrus clouds form in very high layers of the atmosphere. They are smoky because they are composed entirely of ice crystals falling in the atmosphere. When cirrus clouds are carried by winds moving at different speeds, they take on a characteristic curved shape. And only at very high altitudes or at high latitudes, cirrus clouds give out rain that reaches the ground.
4) Stratus Clouds - A low-lying, continuous cloud sheet that covers the sky. Stratus clouds are formed by slowly rising air or gentle winds that cover the cold land or sea surface with moist air. Stratus clouds are thin, therefore, despite the gloomy picture, it is unlikely to rain from them, a little drizzle at most. Stratus clouds are identical to fog, so if you've ever walked in a mountainous area on a foggy day, you've been inside a cloud.
5) Lenticular clouds. Smooth and lenticular lenticular clouds form when air is blown up and over a mountain range, and as it travels over a mountain, the air descends to its previous level. At this time, it heats up and the cloud evaporates. But it can slip further, as a result of which the air rises again and forms another lenticular cloud. This can result in a chain of clouds extending far beyond the mountain range. The interaction of wind with mountains and other surface features is one of the many details that must be taken into account in computer simulations to obtain accurate weather predictions.
6) Kelvin - Helmholtz like a breaking ocean wave. When air masses at different heights move horizontally at different speeds, their state becomes unstable. The boundary between the air masses begins to ripple and form large waves, such clouds are quite rare.

Aglaiocercus kingi (Long-tailed Sylph / Cometa verdiazul)
Sylphs (Aglaiocercus) are short-billed, long-tailed hummingbirds of humid montane forests of the Andes. The Long-tailed Sylph is the most widespread member of the genus, and occurs from Venezuela south to Bolivia.
This is the only species of sylph on the east slopes of the Andes. In Colombia and Ecuador, it also is found on the western slopes of the Andes. This species forages at all heights in the forest, and at forest edge.

♂️ Piranga flava, now Piranga lutea
(Tooth-billed Tanager / Cardenal Montañero)
Hepatic Tanager is the most widely distributed Piranga tanager, ranging from the southwest United States south to northern Argentina. Its English name is based on the liver-red color of the adult male from the northern part of the species' range; however, its scientific name, flava, meaning "yellow," derives from the original description, which is based on a female from Paraguay. These names reflect both a characteristic of the genus Piranga, marked sexual dichromatism, and the broad range of coloration, habitat, and behavior encompassed within the Hepatic Tanager as currently recognized.
Even though the Hepatic Tanager is currently considered one species, much evidence, including a recent study of molecular genetics, indicates that up to 3 species could be recognized, corresponding to the 3 groups of subspecies combined long ago. These groups and their respective species names are the Hepatic Tanager (P. hepatica) of montane pine-oak forests from the southwestern United States to Nicaragua, the Tooth-billed Tanager (P. lutea) of forest edges in foothills and mountains from Costa Rica to northern and western South America, and the Red Tanager (P. flava) of open woodlands of eastern and southeastern South America.

Panorama de la vallée de la Vésubie, jour de pluie. Photos assemblées avec Hugin software.
One year later (i.e. fall 2020), the Alex tempest made the Vésubie river that you can see, raging and devastating villages, houses and roads. Many victims and isolated people were accounted. We, scientists, have good reasons to think that such intense storms are direct consequences of the climate warming.
Please, take a few minutes and have a visit to the" World Scientist's Warning to Humanity" and share the article as widely as possible. Thanks.

This, too, is from my favorite rose garden, Point Defiance Park, located in Tacoma, Washington. Such a beautiful rose garden! Actually, the whole park is worth seeing, if you never have! There's a zoo and aquarium; a five-mile drive that overlooks Puget Sound and Tacoma's Narrows Bridge; a beach and boating area; not only the rose garden, but many other flowers as well including the rhododendron garden when it's in bloom; the duck pond as well as many other wildlife including eagles, deer, and raccoons; and lastly, miles of trails to choose from for your hiking pleasure! So you see, this park includes it all--definitely something worth adding to your bucket list! Hope you all enjoy!

In the gardens at Farm Lator in north east Hungary.
This was an unexpected find, taking a look around the pond in the garden trying to catch a glimpse of the raft spiders when I noticed these two emerging, just out of shot there are two more clambering up the stem from the water below.
The biggest problem was trying to get them both in the same focal plane, not helped by a light breeze, needless to say I took a large number of shots over a period of an hour as they both slowly emerged from their larval casings.
Can't be sure which species they are other than Chasers, there were a few adults on the wing which looked very much like Broad bodied Chasers to me.
Best viewed very large.

In recognition of my channel reaching the milestone of 1,000,000 views, I’ve decided to dig an image out from the modern archive. Not taking into account my profile picture of a youthful 14 year old in the hot seat of 59206 from what seems a long time ago, which has been my avatar since day one, this was the first shot I added to Flickr and it's certainly not a shabby one!
57605 "Totnes Castle" approaches Kennaway Tunnel on its departure from Dawlish with the 2C51 17.50 Exeter St Davids-Penzance First Great Western “Veg-Ex" on the longest day of 2014, Saturday 21 June. The original upload only ever achieved 410 views and 3 faves. Apparently, it was also my favourite image at the time (little to say that is no longer the case); a far cry from the quality of my pictures today. As an editor's note, I used to have a policy of deleting original JPEG's once I had finished editing (sounds a bit like the BBC), but remarkably this one was kept intact, so I was able to have another go at polishing it up (Re-uploaded image).

More wabi-sabi, and yet another tulip; there appears to be no end to these tulips, as I've got another dozed or so in this batch, and two more batches coming up right behind them!
What I like here is the way the petals seem to almost swirl around the curving stem, as if it were doing the twist, pointing to the two top corners, and those blue "eyes" in the pistils.
The result of a multi-image focus stack, this image should reward pretty close examination. Maximum viewing size on your computer can be found by opening the image in a separate window, making that window maximum size, typing the letter "L" on the keyboard, and then clicking the cursor as long as a '+' appears in it, typically twice.
If you find this image to your liking, you can find more wabi-sabi - and an account of my understanding of the meaning of that term - in my wabi-sabi album, more tulips in my Tulips album, and more dancing flowers in my Tiny Dancers album.
BTW, I've taken to putting a white rim around these images on black because, on my iPhone flickr app, it is otherwise difficult to discern the image's edges. I made it tiny because, while large mats look lovely on my desktop monitor, they make it hard for my tired old eyes to view an image on my iPhone's small screen.

The second of two adult mantises I came across. Being such large insects it was not straightforward getting a sharp image due to the very gentle breeze that morning, thankfully the breeze did eventually die down.

Many people associate lions with the grasslands of the Masai Mara or Serengeti. While those areas are great for seeing lions, there are also other environments where they can be seen. This image was captured in the Chobe National Park, Botswana during an extended drought in August 24.

Rondom het behoud van de voormalig NS 466 is Stcihting de Karel Foundation opgericht. Behalve het behoud van dit markante treinstel wat in november 2019 zijn introductierit reed is het ook te huren door gezelschappen voor charitatieve doeleinden. Eén van de goede doelen die hiermee worden gesteund is de KWF kankerbestrijding. Een prachtig alternatief wat je eigenlijk niet anders dan toe kan juichen!
Voor 28 juni was een ruim 600 kilomter lange conditierit voorzien waarbij de Stichting fotografen aanmoedigde op een veilige en bewuste wijze foto en/of videomaterieel van 'De Karel' te maken en dit vervolgens beschikbaar te stellen. Ook ikzelf besloot daaraan mee te doen waarop ik na mailcontact voorzien werd van de tijden waarop het veteraantje zou rijden. Hierbij werd gekozen voor de Zeeuwse lijn aangezien Plan V en zeker ook de 466 hier een rijke historie kent.
Met helaas een onfortuinlijke fotowolk op de heenweg werd vol goede moed koers gezet naar het Zeeuwse en circa 15 minuten voor doorkomst stelling ingenomen langs het spoor nabij 's-Heer Arendskerke. Strak volgens schema en in een wonderlijk perfect zongat passeert "de Karel' 466 als trein 33222 onderweg van Vlissingen naar Amsterdam Centraal het drietal fotografen. Hoewel Vlissingen al ver lijkt zou de reis nog verder gaan naar Enkhuizen alvornens de dag wederom in de hoofdstad te eindigen.
The main biblical accounts of Hezekiah's reign are found in 2 Kings, Isaiah, and 2 Chronicles. Proverbs 25:1 commences a collection of Solomon's proverbs which were "copied by the officials of King Hezekiah of Judah". His reign is also referred to in the books of the prophets Jeremiah, Hosea, Micah, and Isaiah. The books of Hosea and Micah record that their prophecies were made during Hezekiah's reign. The book of Isaiah records when Hezekiah sought Isaiah's help when Judah was under siege by Sennacherib of the Neo-Assyrian Empire.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hezekiah
Основні біблійні розповіді про правління Єзекії містяться в 2 Царів, Ісаї та 2 Хронік. Приповісті 25:1 розпочинають збірку приповістей Соломона, які були «переписані чиновниками Єзекії, царя Юди». Його правління також згадується в книгах пророків Єремії, Осії, Михея та Ісаї. У книгах Осії та Михея сказано, що їхні пророцтва були зроблені під час правління Єзекії. У книзі Ісаї описано, як Єзекія звернувся за допомогою до Ісаї, коли Юдея була в облозі Сеннахеріба з Новоассирійської імперії.

Pingmen or Ping Gate, Suzhou
Due to the account capacity constraints, this account will cease to be updated after 28 June, 2024.
I'm sorry to tell you friends that my new account (www.flickr.com/photos/runen3) was instantly cancelled just as I posted my first photo. I have written to enquire as to the cause. There is little hope of a resolution though. Maybe I will say goodbye to Flickr forever.
Good luck to all of you!
This city gate is called "Pingmen" or "Ping Gate", located in the northwest of the old city of Suzhou. The gate is said to have existed 2,500 years ago, but was blocked until 1928, when it was reconstituted to facilitate the traffic of the nearby railway station outside the city. Then in 1958, when all the walls of the city of Suzhou were demolished, the gate of course ceased to exist.
However, in 2011-2012, the Suzhou municipal authorities rebuilt a section of the city wall at the location of the gate, directly south of the Suzhou railway station, with three arches on the wall, known as the "Ping Gate", and built on top of the wall above the gate an pseudo-ancient city tower, which had never existed at the Pingmen before 1958.

Just before sunset on the Midland Highway somewhere near Jerico, Tasmania.
A long day of site visits from Devonport to Launceston. There are bushfires everywhere - I think the whole state is shrouded in smoke at the moment. The smoke made the sunset an eerie orange/ red colour.
I took my eldest son with me on this trip - he turned 13 a few days ago and now has his own Canon DSLR. He took some amazing photos from this trip. It turns out that 13 is also the magic age to get a Flickr account, so we're going to set that up and you'll be able to see his wonderful work.
