Chong Kneas the floating village, the Tonlé Sap is the largest lake in South East Asia. Located in Cambodia it is unique because the direction of the water flow changes twice a year. During the dry season, it flows into the Mekong, but during the Monsoon season it flows inland, expanding from 2700 sq. km to 16000 sq. km during this time. Water played a very important part in the ancient Khmer people lives and is remains important in the lives of modern day Cambodian people as well.

Because your heart loves who it chooses, without any doubt or reasoning...
The world is full of love that goes unspoken. It doesn’t mean that it is felt less deeply… its beauty and its pain are in its silence.

Why don't you stay
I'm down on my knees
I'm so tired of being lonely
Don't I give you what you need
When she calls you will go
There is one thing you should know
We don't have to live this way
Baby why don't you stay

Albi, situada en el departamento de Languedoc, Francia es una ciudad que conozco bien pues tengo parientes en ella. Ya la he descrito varias veces y no quiero repetirme.
Pero esta ciudad, tiene un problema y es que casi todos los edificios están construidos con ladrillos del mismo color rojizo por lo que en las fotografías este color siempre es el dominante y no hay nada que destaque.
En este caso se trata de la parte del rio Tarn donde hay un mirador desde el que hice muchas fotografías.
Al comprobar que el color dominante sigue siendo el mismo, decidí virarla a escala de grises y creo que ha quedado bastante bien. Al menos a mí me gusta mucho.
Recomiendo ampliarla para verla con todos sus detalles. Gracias

Albi, located in the department of Languedoc, France, is a city that I know well because I have family in it. I have already described it several times and I do not want to repeat myself.
But this city has a problem and it is that almost all the buildings are built with bricks of the same reddish color, so in the photographs this color is always the dominant one and there is nothing that stands out.
In this case it is the part of the river Tarn where there is a viewpoint from which I took many photographs.
When checking that the dominant color remains the same, I decided to turn it to grayscale and I think it has been quite good. At least I really like it.
I recommend expanding it to see it in all its details. Thanks

Enjoy an image of the skyline of Seattle, Washington, USA, a few minutes before sunrise in April 2021.
You can review a reverse timelapse that features this image here. It's in reverse because the actual daybreak was less impressive than I had anticipated. However, when seen in reverse (as though it was a sunset instead of a sunrise), it looks much more engaging.

I chose this simple image because Water and life are represented in it. The water so precious on earth, essential to life, and this group of flamingos still called "flamboyance" The shot was taken in the Camargue (France ), lying on the ground. It is the only place in Europe where these animals breed.
They populate the marshes and ponds by feeding on small molluscs, crustaceans, insects, larvae, algae contained in the mud. A shrimp artemia salina, give them their pink color.
Due to global warming, the sea level is rising. Storms will become more numerous? The Camargue will one day be threatened?
With imagination, if pink flamingos could speak, they might seem to be saying this to us: "Let's all act together against global warming to help limit the harmful impacts on biodiversity and preserve the wonders of the Earth!"
#. J'ai choisi cette image simple car L'eau et la vie y sont représentées . L'eau si précieuse sur terre , essentielle à la vie ,et ce groupe de flamants roses encore appelé "flamboyance " La prise de vue a été effectuée en Camargue(en France ) ,allongée sur le sol.C'est le seul endroit en Europe où ces animaux se reproduisent.
ils peuplent les marais et étangs en se nourrissant de petits mollusques, crustacés, insectes, larves, algues contenus dans la vase.Une crevette artemia salina, leur donnent leur couleur rose.
Du fait du réchauffement climatique ,le niveau de la mer augmente ..les tempêtes vont devenir plus nombreuses ?la Camargue un jour menacée ?
Avec de l'imagination ,si les flamants roses avaient la parole ils sembleraient peut être nous dire ceci :" agissons tous ensemble contre le réchauffement climatique pour permettre de limiter les impacts néfastes sur la biodiversité et préserver les merveilles de la Terre !"

There goes my heart beating
Because you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now
There goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, because I need you to see
That you are the reason
There goes my hands shaking
Because you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
And I need you now
If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour, of every day
Keeping you safe
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, because I need you to see
That you are the reason
You are the reason
Yeah, yeah...
I'd climb every mountain.
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, because I need you to see

Because of the government shutdown in early October 2013, we could not visit the Great Sand Dunes National Park. So unfortunately remained just the view from a distance (from the Great Sand Dunes Lodge) with a telephoto lens.
Wegen des Government shutdown Anfang Oktober 2013 konnten wir den Great Sand Dunes National Park nicht besuchen. So blieb leider nur der Blick aus der Ferne (von der Great Sand Dunes Lodge aus) mit dem Teleobjektiv.

Exclusive to FAMESHED Event round ( February 1st to February 27th)
Overshadowed by her marginally higher neighbour, Bidean Nam Bian, to which she is connected by means of a col just a few meters too high to give her Munro status, Stob Coire nan Lochan is most often just used as a stopping point with a nice view for Munro baggers trying to bag Bidean and Sgreamhach in a wee round.
Too bad, in my opinion, as this mountain, still one of the tallest in Argyll, offers lots of interesting climbing on it's north face, and short walk-in times from the main road. The crags start at around 830-850 meters, and go right up to the pyramid-shaped summit.
Rock around here is mainly rhyolithic/andesite lava, with a granite core because this used to be the centre of the Glen Coe caldera. Because the centre of this ancient supervolcano (think Yellowstone) lies right around the Three Sisters, anyone interested in geology as well as climbing is going to have the time of their life here. The summit of Stob Coire nan Lochan consists almost entirely out of rare Andesite pillars, and the bottom of the coire itself cuts into the granite of the old magmachamber.

I held these photos out from 2022 because I entered them in a contest. I didn't win, so here they are!
In 1908, the Düsseldorf-based Central-trade-ssociation for Rhineland, Westphalia and neighbouring districts praised a competition for a fountain in front of the Düsseldorf Art Palace.
As a "figurative representation of the iron industry and the mining industry," it was to be sent to the 1902 on the site on the banks of the Rhine (then Kaiser Wilhelm Park, now Rheinpark) the industrial and commercial exhibition was held.
Among the 44 designs submitted, the jury, which was prominently occupied by the painter Fritz Roeber, the painter Georg Oeder, the architect Wilhelm Kreis and the Düsseldorf garden director Walter von Engelhardt, was Prize awarded, so also do not recommend a design for execution. It was initially planned to give the authors of the shortlisted drafts the opportunity to revise them in a second stage of competition (a closer competition).
The fountain was built in its original form between 1911 and 1913. While the Düsseldorf architect Gotthold Nestler designed the actual well complex, the sculptor Friedrich Coubillier created the three bronze figures "Schmied Vulkan," "Bergmann" and "Hüttenarbeiter." Miner and cottage worker are depicted in the loincloth. The bronze casting of the figures took place at the Kunstgießerei Lauchhammer.
On the occasion of the opening of the Grand Art Exhibition in 1913, the industrial fountain in front of the former Art Palace was inaugurated. In 1925 the fountain was dismantled there because of the extensive new buildings at the Ehrenhof.
In 1939, the three sculptures were erected in a new facility on Fürstenplatz in Friedrichstadt. In 1942 the figures were to be melted down as metal donations by the German people for armaments and were removed. However, they remained intact, and in 1950 they were restored.
Because I'm in a stadium of blossom and flower photography I want to raise the ante with this rose slumbering on my hard-disk for qite a while waiting for being published.
Da ich gerade in einer Phase von Blumen- und Blütenbildern bin möchte ich hier noch eine Rose nachlegen, welche schon eine Weile auf meiner Festplatte auf Veröffentlichung wartet.

I gaze into the doorway of temptations angry flame
And every time I pass that way I always hear my name
Then onward in my journey I come to understand
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand
--
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, sometimes it's only me.
I'm hanging in the balance of the reality of man
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand.
Bob Dylan - Every Grain of Sand.
Well, who has an idea where we ended up? That's right, that's Lake Constance, with the island of Lindau in the middle of the picture.
Severe storms were announced for the coming night, which finally broke over us. When we reached our spectacular vantage point near Eichenberg in Austria, the sky was already covered with thick, dark clouds. The prospect of a sunset view (the real reason we went here) was extremely minimal. Only on the horizon was there a thin, light stripe that was enough for us to decide to wait..
Luckily, because suddenly the cloud cover opened in exactly the right place like a heavenly portal and we were treated to a spectacular nature experience.
We could only stand and marvel as the light and the atmosphere kept changing with the setting sun and the moving clouds. An utterly mesmerizing sight.
The only awkward part of this trip came when, from the many shots, I had to choose one over all the others. Hell for a photographer.
Na, wer hat schon eine Idee, wo es uns hinverschlagen hat ? Richtig, das ist der Bodensee, mit der Insel Lindau in der Mitte des Bildes.
Für die kommende Nacht wurden uns schwere Unwetter angekündigt, welche dann schlußendlich auch über uns hereingebrochen sind. Als wir unseren spektakulären Aussichtspunkt bei Eichenberg in Österreich erreicht hatten, war der Himmel auch schon von dicken und dunklen Wolken bedeckt. Die Aussicht auf einen Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang (der eigentliche Grund unseres Besuches hier) war äußerst gering. Lediglich am Horizont war ein dünner heller Streifen zu sehen der ausgereicht hat, dass wir uns zum Abwarten entschieden.
Zum Glück, denn plötzlich öffnete sich genau an der richtigen Stelle die Wolkendecke gleich einem himmlischen Portal und wir wurden mit einem spektakulären Naturerlebnis beschenkt.
Wir konnten nur dastehen und staunen, denn der Lichteinfall und die Atmosphäre veränderten sich mit der sinkenden Sonne und den sich bewegenden Wolken ununterbrochen. Ein ganz und gar faszinierender Anblick.
Der einzig unangenehme Teil dieses Ausfluges kam, als ich mich, aus den vielen Aufnahmen, für eine und somit gegen alle anderen enscheiden musste. Die Hölle für einen Fotografen.

Message from the Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers:
"As you move through these changing times... be easy on yourself and be easy on one another. You are at the beginning of something new. You are learning a new way of being. You will find that you are working less in the yang modes that you are used to.
You will stop working so hard at getting from point A to point B the way you have in the past, but instead, will spend more time experiencing yourself in the whole, and your place in it.
Instead of traveling to a goal out there, you will voyage deeper into yourself. Your mother's grandmother knew how to do this. Your ancestors from long ago knew how to do this. They knew the power of the feminine principle... and because you carry their DNA in your body, this wisdom and this way of being is within you.
Call on it. Call it up. Invite your ancestors in. As the yang based habits and the decaying institutions on our planet begin to crumble, look up. A breeze is stirring. Feel the sun on your wings."
Just because. Because there is so much ugliness in our country right now, I decided to post another picture of something beautiful. He just makes me smile
Because I'd just climbed over it. I was having a really weird and unpleasant day health-wise and hadn't intended to take a photograph at all, but saw this and nipped over the fence on the track to a farm building and snapped it with my phone. Then I painted it, of course ! Things are a bit better now, so here we are !
A bit late for Fence Friday but never mind, there are no fences in my picture LOL. Happy Fence Friday and all the days ahead everyone !
Many thanks for your visits and comments, faves etc. I would prefer not to receive multiple invites - thank you !
