The Coastguard Cottages and Seven Sisters in the background through my crystal ball.

For my next trick I'll predict how brexit will pan out

Parks and wilderness, civilization and the natural environment. Of course the latter is subject to drought and fire...

With inverted tones we see the immense structure of the - to be - leaf supporting boughs, branches and twigs - once Spring comes.

Seaweed ( kelp ) taken during our road trip to Robe, South Australia.

 

Seaweeds grow in abundance in the oceans, many of which are edible and safe for human consumption.

 

They have been documented to contain many of the essential nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds.

 

For many years, seaweeds have also been cultivated and utilized directly as food for humans or as feed to produce food for human consumption.

 

Since seaweeds grow in many climatic conditions globally, their cultivation has minimal impact on the environment.

 

Seaweeds are increasingly recognized as a sustainable food source with the potential to play a major role in providing food security worldwide.

 

Although seaweeds are part of the diet in many Asian countries and some European nations, there are some challenges in terms of their incorporation into the general diet in many places globally.

 

Innovation in food technology and culinology can help make seaweeds desirable organoleptically to increase their consumption.

 

Abstract from a book..Seaweeds: a sustainable food source.

 

Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated..

 

Peaceful MBT

We used Google Maps extensively on our recent western state's road trip. The application gives you the main route and also offers a couple of alternative routes. Believe it or not, this dirt road was one of the alternative routes offered. I'm glad we took it.

 

Wyoming

Summilux 50mm f1.4 asph.

Seems a bit surreal - completing this whilst listening to talk of impending war in Europe.........

There are many lovely spots along Bow Valley Parkway in Banff National Park. I captured this freight train about 2 km north of Castle Junction.

 

Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my pictures. Your views, comments, faves and support are greatly appreciated

But it is the photo one of my children would have chosen for the just white paper macro Monday theme

Symonds Yat

 

A short walk from the main viewing area at Symonds Yat Rock is the alternative view point, much quieter, in fact we were the only ones there. The views of the river Wye I thought were actually better from here. In the distance you should be just able to make out the spire of the church in the village of Goodrich, and below in the valley by the side of the river some cows looking very small.

Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

The sun set to the right and behind a ridge not visible in this scene. However, on this occasion, as it dipped below the horizon, the brilliant reds reflected on the clouds above us and again in the water below - making it a lovely alternative to the actual sunset itself.

The technique:

I took this photograph and cropped it a little, altered hue to be this bright pink instead of green with some blurring, added a blue tinge for the sky and masked off the cows - adjusted the saturation so they were white once more and sketched them in using the graphic pen.

And the verdict.... what do you think, pop art or just rubbish??! Any honest opinions welcomed, I will not be offended!

 

PS this means opinions on the final result, not the fact of using an image editor! LOL : D

Just a pic to show that the axe hand is removable.

The vastness of the Australian outback is dwarfed by the Milky Way... and beyond. View from near Joffre Gorge, with the lights of Tom Price distant at left and a Karijini Eco Retreat bit closer on the right. Stitch of 9 photos using Hugin.

I've always been fascinating with fire escape stairs. The only thing missing here is someone running up or down. Oh well....

So yesterday’s option was thrown out of the MM group which, on reflection was probably a fair decision as it wasn’t 100% white on white ( even though the subject and the background were both white).

Yesterday I also joined the pro version of the app, rather grudgingly, this year’s subscription is reasonably priced but if I’ve understood things correctly it’ll be doubled in price. However how can one put a price on the friendships that I’ve formed here over the last couple of years? Thank you all 😊 . The alternative would be leaving the group or having some photos deleted.

Much as I’d like the alternative option of staying in a warm cosy bed, it’s the alternative of getting up and going to work is the realistic alternative for today. So there we have it three different alternatives along with the alternative photo from yesterday. Enough musings methinks, another day awaits to keep me more than occupied!

Thanks for stopping ( and listening to a slight grumble!)
