La Albufera Natural Park is a wetland area very close to the city of Valencia. The main crop is the rice. In May the fields are flooded for sowing the rice offering to the visitor beautiful colours and reflections at twilight.
After three futile attempts, I was granted with these colours.

Crossing Bristo Square at the University during the Fringe. I looked up for a moment from the frenzy of loud activity going on in the square and noticed this modern addition was catching the last of the evening light. with shadows growing.
I wanted a better angle, but the square below was packed with pop-up spots for the Fringe, so this was the only angle I could get that avoided getting those in the shot, as I just wanted the architecture and that evening light on the window patterns, in mono, so I had to zoom and angle and frame to get it.
Excerpt from www.amo.gov.hk/en/historic-buildings/monuments/kowloon/mo...:
Kowloon Union Church, one of the earliest inter-denominational churches in Hong Kong, was built by the London Missionary Society with financial support from Sir Paul Chater. The foundation stone was laid on 27 May 1930 by the then Colonial Secretary, W.T. Southorn, and the church was officially opened on 10 April 1931 by the then Governor Sir William Peel. During the Japanese Occupation, the church ceased to function and the building was converted into a horse stable by the Japanese army and suffered severe looting and damage. The church was opened again for public worship with a rededication service held on 19 October 1947 and continues to serve the community until now.
The church possesses “Perpendicular Gothic” architectural features, with pitched Chinese-tiled roof, red load-bearing brick walls and contrasting grey granite steps and window surrounds. A semi-circular apse and an attached three-storey battlemented tower are built at the two ends of the church respectively.
The square battlemented tower with pointed arch doorway surround and foundation stone at the base is designed to serve as the main entrance to the church. It is of fair-face red brickwork with carved granite ornaments and trimmings. There is also a concrete flat roof topped with a crenelated low parapet wall.
The windows of the church are set in decorative granite framing in the form of trefoil-headed tracery. The window frames are of wrought-iron and there are angular carved hoods above the windows. The windows of top floor of the battlemented tower are with stone louvers. The elegant double hammer-beam timber roof trusses with carved granite corbel supports are a rare and dominant feature of the spacious interior of the main hall of the church.
Kowloon Union Church was declared a monument in 2017.
This is my grandfather's stopwatch.
Each clock hand has a different angular velocity.
The seconds hand, perform one revolution every 1 minute: FAST;
The minutes hand, perform one revolution every 60 minutes: MEDIUM;
The hours hand, perform one revolution every 720 minutes: SLOW.

I found this odd-shaped little spider guarding her egg sac which is carefully wrapped in a leaf. Tmarus Genus (a type of crab spider). She looks similar to this Tmarus angulatus on bugguide: bugguide.net/node/view/261562/bgpage
Found in a field down the street in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Id corrections appreciated.
My #35 spider for this year.
Angular momentum is a fundamentally important concept in quantum mechanics, even more so than in classical mechanics. This photo is of a book on the subject.
