Imperfections abound in this image but it was still one of my favorite moments from Alaska during our 2016 trip aboard the Snow Goose. This was the one hike that I decided to bring my 100-400mm zoom lens instead of carrying the big gun 500mm and teleconverter. We’d had a great hike and were heading back to the boat when we spotted a brown bear sow. Then up popped two tiny heads of her cubs. We thought, that’s okay, as long as we’re not between the mother and her young ones we are fine as we proceeded cautiously along the trail. The cubs chose that moment to rush across the water, over the trail and into the forest. Sow to our right, cubs to our left, we waited. Eventually, the mama bear wandered across the trail to join her cubs. We were still a little nervous, and the water was pretty shallow, so we left the trail and headed right down the middle of the stream, trail and forest far to our left, to avoid interfering with the bears. What a memory! If only I had carried my best gear. Lessons learned. Never let your guard down for an instant!

Tibetans take a moment's rest while doing circumambulations (kora) of the famous Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, Tibet. There is no greater happiness for your average Tibetan than to be immersed in the recitation of the Mani mantra, the mantra of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion, while walking around this most revered temple in all of Tibet. The Chinese are not able to take this away from them--their inner life and practice and the boundless heart it generates.
Thanks everyone for your views, faves and kind comments! I really appreciate them! Be well and happy shooting!

The boundless spirit who bears in himself the totality of Being reaches beyond the “greatest”, so that to him it is small, and he reaches into the smallest, because to him nothing is too small. Precisely this overstepping of the greatest and reaching down into the smallest is the true nature of absolute spirit.

The purest sign can be found in the seemingly idle moments that would assist in moving existence toward aspirations filled with the joys and pleasures that are worth living for. Universal laws coalesce with physical reality to formulate a continuance that would meet the criterion of souls with the intent of advancement.
He halted in the wind, and--what was that
Far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
He stood there bringing March against his thought,
And yet too ready to believe the most.
'Oh, that's the Paradise-in-bloom,' I said;
And truly it was fair enough for flowers
had we but in us to assume in march
Such white luxuriance of May for ours.
We stood a moment so in a strange world,
Myself as one his own pretense deceives;
And then I said the truth (and we moved on).
A young beech clinging to its last year's leaves.

It was a real treat to see all the young wildebeests, with seemingly boundless energy, racing around confines of the herd while the adults grazed. I'm guessing that all that racing helped prepare those youngsters to run for their lives when predators attacked the herd.
===============
From Wikipedia: The blue wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus), also called the common wildebeest, white-bearded wildebeest, white-bearded gnu or brindled gnu, is a large antelope and one of the two species of wildebeest. It is placed in the genus Connochaetes and family Bovidae, and has a close taxonomic relationship with the black wildebeest. The blue wildebeest is known to have five subspecies. This broad-shouldered antelope has a muscular, front-heavy appearance, with a distinctive, robust muzzle. Young blue wildebeest are born tawny brown, and begin to take on their adult coloration at the age of 2 months. The adults' hues range from a deep slate or bluish-gray to light gray or even grayish-brown. Both sexes possess a pair of large curved horns.
The blue wildebeest is a herbivore, feeding primarily on short grasses. It forms herds which move about in loose aggregations, the animals being fast runners and extremely wary. The mating season begins at the end of the rainy season and a single calf is usually born after a gestational period of about 8.5 months. The calf remains with its mother for 8 months, after which it joins a juvenile herd. Oddly, rare blue wildebeat can have a glow or luminescent coat during the change of seasons between fall and winter. Blue wildebeest are found in short-grass plains bordering bush-covered acacia savannas in southern and eastern Africa, thriving in areas that are neither too wet nor too arid. Three African populations of blue wildebeest take part in a long-distance migration, timed to coincide with the annual pattern of rainfall and grass growth on the short-grass plains where they can find the nutrient-rich forage necessary for lactation and calf growth.
The blue wildebeest is native to Angola, Botswana, Eswatini, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Today, it is extinct in Malawi, but has been successfully reintroduced in Namibia. The southern limit of the blue wildebeest range is the Orange River, while the western limit is bounded by Lake Victoria and Mount Kenya. The blue wildebeest is widespread and is being introduced into private game farms, reserves, and conservancies. So, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources rates the blue wildebeest as being of least concern. The population has been estimated to be around 1.5 million, and the population trend is stable.
Fossil records suggest these two species diverged about one million years ago, resulting in a northern and a southern species. The blue wildebeest remained in its original range and changed very little from the ancestral species, while the black wildebeest changed more as adaptation to its open grassland habitat in the south. The most obvious ways of telling the two species apart are the differences in their colouring and in the way their horns are oriented.
In East Africa, the blue wildebeest is the most abundant big-game species; some populations perform an annual migration to new grazing grounds, but the black wildebeest is merely nomadic. Breeding in both takes place over a short period of time at the end of the rainy season and the calves are soon active and are able to move with the herd, a fact necessary for their survival. Nevertheless, some fall prey to large carnivores, especially the spotted hyena.
Wildebeest often graze in mixed herds with zebra, which gives heightened awareness of potential predators. They are also alert to the warning signals emitted by other animals such as baboons. Wildebeest are a tourist attraction but compete with domesticated livestock for pasture and are sometimes blamed by farmers for transferring diseases and parasites to their cattle. Illegal hunting does take place but the population trend is fairly stable and, with some in national parks or on private land. The International Union for Conservation of Nature lists both kinds of wildebeest as least-concern species.
Predators:
Major predators that feed on wildebeest include the lion, hyena, African wild dog, cheetah, leopard, and crocodile, which seem to favour the wildebeest over other prey. Wildebeest, however, are very strong, and can inflict considerable injury even to a lion. Wildebeest have a maximum running speed of around 80 km/h (50 mph). The primary defensive tactic is herding, where the young animals are protected by the older, larger ones, while the herd runs as a group. Typically, the predators attempt to isolate a young or ill animal and attack without having to worry about the herd. Wildebeest have developed additional sophisticated cooperative behaviours, such as animals taking turns sleeping while others stand guard against a night attack by invading predators. Wildebeest migrations are closely followed by vultures, as wildebeest carcasses are an important source of food for these scavengers. The vultures consume about 70% of the wildebeest carcasses available. Decreases in the number of migrating wildebeest have also had a negative effect on the vultures. In the Serengeti ecosystem, Tanzania, wildebeest may help facilitate the migration of other, smaller-bodied grazers, such as Thomson's gazelles (Eudorcas thomsonii), which eat the new-growth grasses stimulated by wildebeest foraging.

Well, I was very close to not getting out of bed that morning for sunrise I was sick as a dog from catching someone's nasty cold on the plane on my way back from Florida and I had just driven the last two days to make it in time to shoot with one of my favorite photographers David Thompson. There was no way I was going to pass that chance by!
I'am so glad I made it out, and witnessed a spectacular sunrise that morning, the view and the beautiful sky did not disappoint! This is just a sampling of what's to come from my travels to the Southwest. I will be releasing a vistas series of some gorgeous lookouts from AZ and UT, stay tuned!

Appearing within the boundless darkness of space in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope snapshot, NGC 34 looks more like an otherworldly, bioluminescent creature from the deep oceans than a galaxy. Lying in the constellation Cetus (the Sea Monster), the galaxy’s outer region appears almost translucent, pinpricked with stars and strange wispy tendrils.
The main cause for this galaxy’s odd appearance lies in its past. If we were able to reverse time by a few million years, we would see two beautiful spiral galaxies on a direct collision course. When these galaxies collided into one another, their intricate patterns and spiral arms were permanently disturbed. This image shows the galaxy's bright center, a result of this merging event that has created a burst of new star formation and lit up the surrounding gas. As the galaxies continue to intertwine and become one, NGC 34’s shape will become more like that of a peculiar galaxy, devoid of any distinct shape.
In the vastness of space, collisions between galaxies are quite rare events, but they can be numerous in mega-clusters containing hundreds or even thousands of galaxies.

تو را دوست می دارم!
در فراسوی مرزهای تنت تو را دوست میدارم
آینه هاو شب پره های مشتاق را به من بده
روشنی وشراب را
آسمان بلندوکمان گشاده ی پل
پرنده ها وقوس و قزح رابه من بده
و راه آخرین را
در پرده ای که میزنی مکرر کن.
در فراسوی مرزهای تن ام
تو را دوست می دارم

In June 2013 a pair of house wrens settled into a nesting box at the end of my vegetable garden. They tended the nest and raised their family of youngsters, ignoring me as I worked in the garden. Once the eggs hatched I enjoyed watching the parents take turns bringing a variety of food for the youngsters. Their devotion was boundless, and it seemed like they were on duty 24/7. As the youngsters grew I watched them from a distance, waiting for the moment when they finally left the nest. I managed to catch this one being fed, and just moments after I took this photo the little guy fledged. Nature at its finest, right in my own backyard.
Please check out the 1400 sized version, which this is correctly sharpened for....
