Black River and Amazon River
The Meeting of Waters
The Amazon River, located in South America, is the largest river in the world in volume of water and the largest river in the world in extension, with 6.992,06 km. The Amazon River originates from the source of the Apurimac River, on the slopes of Nevado Mismi, in the Andes Mountains, Peru, at 5,600 meters above sea level. Source: All Matter.

Amazonas, Brasil
The Amazon rainforest is currently experiencing a significant increase in wildfires, with 9,000 fires burning simultaneously across Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Peru. The fires are largely set intentionally to clear land for cattle ranching, farming, and logging, and have been exacerbated by the dry season. The number of fires is an 80% increase over the same period last year. The Amazon is often called "the lungs of the world," absorbing greenhouse gases that would otherwise harm the planet. The fires are destroying the homes of indigenous tribes, threatening millions of animals, and even darkening the skies over major cities. The impact of the fires on the Amazon's biodiversity will be significant, with between 40,000 and 73,400 square miles of the rainforest impacted by fires since 2001, affecting 95% of all Amazonian species and as many as 85% of species that are listed as threatened in this region.

This one was ordered by me from Amazon in search of a smiley chair and photographed in a vintage retro building. The chair has since been reused as a pool tube smiling and sits happily while floating about when its summer.
Piranhas in the river in the Amazon Peru. You can easily go for a swim, they will not harm you at all in spite of what many people think.

The plane which I was on flew into Lima due to bad weather at it's original destination, Iquitos...
From there, a later plane was taken to Iquitos and the plan was to join a boat a little down river from there....( travelling down to it by canoe with small motor ). It is a recent realisation that I had travelled by plane or boat from the West Coast to the East, arriving a little south of the marked route into Belem and then up the coast to French Guiana and the Surinam border.......
While taking a dip in the Amazon today, I saw this Piranha staring at me intending to nibble on my toes. :-))
By far the most common kingfisher that we encountered during our time in the Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge in Costa Rica was the Amazon Kingfisher. This female was quite a great model.
We will be doing this trip again next spring, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2018-costa-ric...

Here is the full diorama of all four Amazon builds created for mine and Bartu's Amazon collaboration!
First of all: Be sure to check out the Full Video of this build! This includes Bartu's masterful compositions, which is how this collaboration really comes alive! Don't miss it! :D
Hope you've enjoyed this collaboration! It has been quite a different one, working in two separate mediums, but I really want to thank Bartu for initiating this! It's been a very fun, interesting and intense month! Thanks!
One last thing: You seriously need to check out the VIDEO result of this collab to see how the music and lego builds work together. If not, you will just be seeing half of it :)
A composite image of the wreck of the Amazon under southern starry skies. I'm not sure about posting this as it's not my usual style: I like to use infrared, long exposures, modified lenses and tilt-shifts to create an interpretation that is still strongly linked to the subject in front of me. In this case I've combined a single 2-second image of the shoreline with a 21-minute night sky exposure taken 3 weeks later from my backyard.
I really like the end result but it just doesn't feel honest, in the way of my usual techniques.
We were very fortunate to see the five Kingfishers in the Pantanal.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

It was still relatively early in the day so sightings were not numerous, but still nice things were seen.
Though I had no idea at the time, this is another new species for me. I do love all the chorineas I have seen.
Another snap shot of one of my husbands Amazon Tree Frogs. The eyes are amazing they also have a blue tongue .
Milk frogs are highly arboreal and in nature rarely if ever come down from their home in the trees which is why they require extra habitat and frog supplies. Provide perches above ground such as cork bark, bamboo trigs etc. Artificial plants or live plants can also be used.
