Two weeks into our month long trip has brought us to Moab and my first time on the internet since leaving.
Amazing sunrise at the Canyonlands National Park, Utah. Mesa Arch glows as the sun rises in the morning. Amazing view and experience.

Gkikas's Mill bridge backlit in June.
The bridge is located near Kraniá (aka Kranéa or La Kornu), a village in 1,179.7 m (3,870.4 ft) altitude near Trikala, Greece. The arched bridge is made of stones, 20 metres (66 ft) long and 2.7 m (9 ft) wide. It was constructed in 1887 and spans the Kraniótikos river or stream that is a tributary of Aspropótamos.
Aspropótamos (Greek for “White River”) is a toponym for the 2nd largest Greek river, aka “Achelōos.” Achelōos runs for 220 km (137 miles) prior to disgorging its waters into the Ionian Sea. The precipitous flow of the river causes its crystal-clear waters to splash and foam over the many stones scattered throughout the river bed; the White River toponym emanates from the white foam occurring all along the river.
Achelōos was worshipped as a god in ancient Greece (son of Ocean and Tēthys or Ocean and Naïás according to myths and legends).
Delicate Arch as viewed from the longer, more strenuous hike to reach the arch itself with the LaSal Mountains as a backdrop....and yes, I did remove all the touristas as they detracted from the beauty of the scene; LOL!!!! Edward Abbey offers a pretty interesting way of describing this natural phenomenon.....
"There are several ways of looking at Delicate Arch. Depending on your preconceptions you may see the eroded remnants of a sandstone fin, a giant engagement ring cemented in rock, a bow-legged pair of petrified cowboy chaps, a triumphal arch for a procession of angels, an illogical freak, a happening.... If Delicate Arch has any significance it lies, I will venture, in the power of the odd and unexpected to startle the senses and surprise the mind out of their ruts of habit, to compel us into a reawakened awareness of the wonderful-that which is full of wonder."
Just uploaded a dozen and a half images.....hope you enjoy!!!!! Have a great Sunday, and as always, thanks for all your visits and comments :-)

On one of the Northern entrances to Yellowstone National Park. Was originally meant to just mark the entrance, but the Prez showed up and gave a speech and it's been the Roosevelt Arch ever since.
Walking out to Delicate Arch, I spotted a small arch not too far above me along the trail. I climbed up to it and found it framed the famous arch perfectly. Was a bit of a struggle to set up the tripod in this spot, though... With a photo spot as famous as this, it's always a challenge to find a little different take on it. Arches National Park.

It doesn't look like it, but this is a very large sea arch along the coastline of Keauhou on the Big Island of Hawaii.
With a cloudless sky I focused my attention on the detail of the lava rock that makes up this sea arch along with the waves folding in and out of the opening. It was the end of the day, so the sunlight began to illuminate the side wall with a golden hue. This introduced a nice spot of color against the dark lava rock. A one second exposure helped to soften the water and give contrast to the harshness of the lava rock.
Despite some disappointments, mentioned in my blog post on my website, I am pretty excited about this image.

What an incredible location to view the wonder and beauty of the night sky! After witnessing a fantastic sunset, I stayed on top of Tom, Dick and Harry Mountain to photograph the Milky Way arching over Mount Hood. I hope you like this one - I have been trying for several months to get the right conditions in order to achieve it and everything finally lined up for me.
Below you can the town of Government Camp. To the left of Mount Hood is a good view of Mount Adams, and Mount Jefferson can be seen just to the right of the gaseous section of the Milky Way.
Technical details - 6 photo panorama, Nikon D800, Nikon 14-24 lens, ISO 3200, f/2.8, 30 seconds.
Most of the sunset was obscured by cloud, but an opening appeared briefly and the arch glowed. It was remarkable
All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades for ever and for ever when I move. Alfred Lord Tennyson
The main entrance to the Exhibition of achievements of the national economy, located on the side of Prospekt Mira and metro station "VDNH". The arch was built in 1951-1954. Reconstruction completed in July 2018.
Take a different angle to see this bay bridge arch in the close up view. From the point of San Francisco side to the top of this bridge arch in 40 to 50 feet. I am not sure about the actual data of this bridge. You may see it of this picture. What do you think ? :) It was a lucky snapshot of this one with a long lens shot. Not easy.

Off into Canyonlands for the iconic "Sunrise at Mesa Arch" shot. We were the first there this morning as it had been raining all night and still was as we were picking our spot and setting up.
10 mins before sunrise the coach parties arrived and there was suddenly about 100 people all waiting to see what would happen and inevitably getting in each others shot! The atmosphere got quite tense for a while with lots of people shouting at each other. A couple of minutes before sunrise I asked everybody to please step back so everyone gets a chance to capture the magic moment and luckily they did as there was suddenly an eerie calm!
The then the moment happened, the sun broke the horizon and flooded the entire scene with stunning morning light bouncing up from the walls of the canyon 800 feet below the arch, much to the delight of the onlookers! Three minutes later it was all over (see photo in comments below which was taken just after the sun went behind the arch)
Arches and columns at Glasgow University.
Serendipity brought us to these arches and columns during our visit to Glasgow. As we sometimes do, we had headed out on foot in the morning with only a very general idea of where we were headed — essentially in the direction of the West End. We knew there was a museum along the way that we wanted to visit, but that was about it. As we approached, the impressive Gothic tower at Glasgow University dominated the skyline, and we ended up deciding to investigate.
There are modern buildings here, but this central Gothic structure, built around inner courtyards, caught out attention. At first we admired it from outside, but then I saw an entry and figure “why not?” We walked in, wandered a bit, and eventually found these archest and columns over a walkway between the courtyards.

Arches National Park, Utah.
This is one of Arches' "can't miss" landmarks, because you drive right by it on the way to the Landscape Arch hike and would have to have your eyes closed to not see it. While you can get a good look from the parking lot, I walked toward it for 2-3 minutes for this view.
Balbi's Arch dates back to 1678.
Rovijn sits at the southern end of the Istrian Peninsula, in Croatia. The city, and the entire region, are astounding and surely worth a visit.
After shooting Milky Way at Delicate Arch, we made our way to Mesa Arch...wanting to get good spots we got there around 3 am, that 3 hours before sunset. There was one car there already but we saw someone was sleeping it it so we were not worry about having people at the Arch...however, about an hour later more cars started to arrive so we started hiking out to the arch. We got there and we were the first one and picked the spot we wanted :D
The left spandrel at the Arch of Arch of Septimius Severus. The figure is a 'winged victory' carrying a trophy.
The central keystone of the arch (on the right here) is Mars, the Roman god of war.
Roman Forum, Rome; July 2019
Took a quick trip to the Oregon coast over the weekend. We stayed in Arch Cape but also traveled up north to Cannon Beach.

I just got back from a pretty wild 6-day trip to Arches National Park for my April night-sky workshop. The nights were pretty evenly split between cloudy and clear, but when the sky did it clear--wow.
Here's a shot of Skyline Arch with the Milky Way "arching" overhead.
Thanks for giving it a look!
My son’s RX-7 rotor housings (13B) and transmission. They don’t work any more so I thought I’d try to make art!
the arches are beginning to be screened by the yellow racemes of the laburnum. i pruned some of the ivy to give the honeysuckle, growing over the front arch, better air circulation as it's infected by a fungus. for the moment it's surviving
the birds brought their young to the feeding station this morning and fed them on the arms of the arches. they all looked well. lovely to see

garden path layout october 2021 flic.kr/p/2mx2Mj5
for many years my garden was a shrubbery flic.kr/p/Lhv9ag which i loved. a picket fence covered in an ivy hedge coming down in a storm flic.kr/p/2gnCyih meant that over time changes had to happen flic.kr/p/2mn2x8a i'll be glad when the trellis is covered in honeysuckle and jasmine. that's the plan ...

architectural detail looking up in grant's tomb - morningside heights, manhattan, nyc
Approximately 90,000 people from around the country and the world donated a total of over $600,000 towards construction of his tomb, the largest public fundraising effort ever at that time. Designed by architect John Duncan, the granite and marble structure was completed in 1897 and remains the largest mausoleum in North America. Over one million people attended the parade and dedication ceremony of Grant's Tomb, on April 27, 1897. (from the Nat'l Park Service website)
