Spring break-up on Lloyd's River with the Annieopsquotch Mountains to the right. This was last year's breakup. Checked last week and there was no sign of it looking anything like this....still ice from bank to bank.
Looks nicer large.
The ice is breaking up behing the breakwall on lake Ontario in west Toronto.
The grey clouds were soon to be replaced by a pure blue sky and warming sun.
Edited Landsat 8 image of the breakup of the large iceberg that just split away from the Larsen C ice shelf. Processing variant.

Original caption: When a massive iceberg first broke away from Antarctica’s Larsen C ice shelf sometime between July 10-12, 2017, scientists knew it would eventually start breaking apart. That’s the normal life cycle of a drifting iceberg, which is at the mercy of the ocean’s battering currents, tides, and winds. Already those forces have turned A-68 into two named bergs, A-68A and A-68B, as well as a handful of pieces too small to be named by the U.S. National Ice Center.
In the two weeks following the initial break, satellite imagery has documented the iceberg’s motion. The southern end appears to have slammed into a mix of floating ice above Gipps Ice Rise—the bump of snow- and ice-covered bedrock visible in the lower right of the image. Then the berg rebounded and its northern end swung back toward the just opened rift. The resulting impact caused both the berg’s north end and the ice shelf to fracture.
“The back-and-forth movement of A-68 looks akin to maneuvering a parallel-parked car out of a tight parking space—like an Austin Powers three-point turn,” said Christopher Shuman, a cryospheric scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
The fractured berg and shelf are visible in these images, acquired on July 21, 2017, by the Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) on the Landsat 8 satellite. The false-color view shows the relative warmth or coolness across the region. White indicates where the ice or water surface is warmest, most notably in the widening strip of mélange between the main iceberg and the remaining ice shelf. Dark grays and blacks are the coldest areas of ice.
So far, the calving and fracturing has taken place under the dark cover of polar night during Antarctica’s austral winter. That makes thermal imagery from satellites a critical tool for “seeing” the action. Adrian Luckman of the UK-based Project MIDAS first saw the berg break away in thermal data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), before Sentinel radar data became available later on July 12.
The thermal view above shows a remarkable amount of detail. The bright signature of relatively warm ocean water appears around A-68B, which broke off sometime between late July 13 and early July 14. More subtle fractures north of A-68B are visible on the shelf; these pieces will eventually break free and move out to sea with the rest of the ice.
All of the ice pieces large and small are subject to the water currents of the Weddell Gyre and the strong weather systems that can whip up blinding snow and blanket the region in clouds for many days at a time. This same ocean circulation that will eventually move the bergs northward toward South Georgia Island.
In the meantime, scientists will have to wait until August—the end of polar night here—to get their first natural-color images since the long-growing Larsen C rift became a complete break.

Looking southwestward at a small canyon of a Tornillo Creek tributary.
In this location we're about 6.9 road mi / 11.1 road km north of the intersection of Old Ore Road and Park Road 12. So we're almost 5 mi (8 km) farther up this rocky track from the site of the previous, wildly popular and deeply appreciated photo in this series.
Whoever Carlota was, she certainly had quite an impact on the local landscape.
I've already shown and described Cuesta Carlota, the prominent ridge that parallels the lower portion of Old Ore Road and whose northern end terminates just east of here. And this scenic spot is known as Carlota Tinaja. That requires a bit of explaining.
It's my understanding the Spanish term tinaja denotes a large jar or other similar ceramic container. This leads me to this post's title, which is a play on the old schoolyard riddle, "When is a door not a door? — When it's ajar." Get it? When . . . it's . . a . . . jar. Of course, it loses its punch when it has to be explained.
But in this case, when is a tinaja/jar not a jar? — When it's a natural depression in the bedrock where standing water collects and wildlife and livestock come to drink. That's a nice poetic adaptation of the word, but I don't know if it has that additional meaning far and wide in Mexico and the adjacent US, or is just another of those funky things specific to the alternative universe that is Big Bend.
In any case, there must have been one of those watering holes down in that streambed.
If you've been to this park and spent some time in Boquillas Canyon and Santa Elena Canyon, you know that one of the area's big geologic stories has to do with the series of distinctly stratified Cretaceous-period formations on dramatic display. These contain a lot of limestone, but include other sedimentary rock types, too. They formed after North and South America parted company during the breakup of Pangaea.
In the big Rio Grande canyons, however, most of what you see are Lower Cretaceous units, including the massive, cliff-forming Santa Elena Limestone. Here, however there's a beatifically lovely exposure of the Upper Cretaceous Boquillas Formation. And according to the USGS map of the park I often cite (Kenzie J. Turner et al., 2011), the rock here belongs specifically to the Boquillas' San Vincente Member.
The booklet that accompanies the map describes the San Vicente as
Medium-gray, finely crystalline, thin-bedded limestone, and brownish-gray and yellowish- to light-gray claystone, calcareous shale, marl, and chalk. Limestone is argillaceous and chalky; claystone is calcareous and contains some clay minerals including kaolinite, montmorillonite, and illite; about 145 m thick.
And thin-bedded it definitely is. Such flaggy strata as these can produce striking patterns and textures.
Apparently the Boquillas Formation owes its origin to sea level rise and the establishment of the Western Interior Seaway. This great swath of seawater not only covered the Big Bend region; it transected this continent from north to south. An ambitious mosasaur or ammonite could have traveled all the way from the Arctic Ocean to the correctly named Gulf of Mexico.

Sometimes in your life you just need to face it, no matter how deep you hide it, there will always come a moment when you will remember.
First you open your wings, you touch the clouds, the borders of the glas are painted with all the smiles brought by good memories, but then you come to the lower part of the glass, the liquor have the need to flush your sore trhoat, throat strangled by the ending, by the injustice, by the strugles that you made in your life, all the sacrifice, that never payed off.
We always will meet new, interesting people in our life, the ugly ones, the cute ones, the realy hot ones, the interesting, boring... every single profile. Some, will pass by our side like the new born breeze, some will tickle our imagination, and sometimes one of the team will decide that tickle to take over your life, and jump right into a new bus, leaving the old companion behind.
The only question is how do we know that the old road trip in time will show that was better then the new one? And if we realise it then, will it be too late to buy that ticket again, because the worst thing in the life is when you come too late.
If you are jumping from one bus to another, you will be stuck playing the same song but only with different instruments, and is it realy fair to replace your for so many years loved guitar with a violin, just to play the same song again?
The thing is, when you find something that you build and trully respect, you will see and visit hundreds of houses, but you will always gladly return to your doorstep, because you made it, and even if other doors look tempting, your is the one you chose, the one that was always there for you. That's a feeling that we often forget.

After knocking over a glass table and breaking it, I decided it might be useful for a photo someday, so I kept most of the big pieces (but stupidly, only two of the three legs). I thought of a rough concept pretty soon after that, but as I tend to do every now and then, chose to put it aside just for a short, little while...
So... after about six months of having heavy, jagged shards of broken glass sitting around my apartment (and a couple of incidents requiring bandages), I finally did something with them. In the time that had past I'd also broken three drinking glasses and, naturally, saved them as well (Yes, actually I AM a klutz). So here is the result:
It took a while to arrange a time with Stacia (the model), and twice we had it scheduled but plans fell through (once because of a friend's pregnancy). When the schedule was finally worked out, I had to move several pieces of furniture out into my hallway to get the setting I wanted, as the room is small (a LOT smaller than in looks). Unfortunately the hallway isn't exactly giant, and the furniture basically barricaded the front door, trapping Stacia inside my apartment with me, surrounded by sharp slabs of glass and a hammer. Of course, she had brought her own gun to our previous photoshoot, so I suspect she wasn't too worried:)
The lighting set-up included one monobloc in a softbox high and about 45 degrees camera-right, pointing down at her face. I had another monobloc in a softbox right next to me camera-left a bit lower, bouncing light off the wall (both for fill light on Stacia and to try and get some depth in the objects on the floor). I put two speedlites in the window (one clamped to the handle) with CTO gels, using the curtain as a partial diffuser, to get the shadow pattern on the wall and ceiling. I also had on-axis fill coming from a speedlight stuck in an Orbis ring flash. The flashes were all triggered with Radiopoppers.
I did a lot of post-work to get the look of this shot the way I wanted (surreal), which, on its own, is already quite an involved, time-consuming process, involving two or more RAW file conversions, and lots of contrast masking with filters. There's no automatic action for this, as far as I know.
You've got to get the lighting right first, of course. No amount of editing can make good light when it wasn't already in the original photo; and anyone who thinks it's easy to just photoshop something any way you want and have it look good, please pass on your secrets to me:)
Since I had only kept two of the (table) legs, I used a tripod and moved them around in a couple of different frames and merge them together later to make it look like there were four. Unfortunately, I didn't realize during the shoot (but should've suspected) that I was repeatedly nudging the lens with the ring flash, which slightly shifted each frame. Not really enough to see it on the camera's LCD, but definitely enough to make merging the separate layers a gigantic pain in the... well, you know. Particularly since the six-year-old computer I was using at the time was so terminally ill that it sometimes took 10-15 minutes JUST TO SAVE A FILE. Grrrrr...
At least I can finally throw out those glass shards. Well, wait... hold on. Hmmm... maybe there's another photo concept that I can use them for... I think I'll just hold off throwing them out for a short little while...
P.S. I realize that technically there should be little pieces of glass all over the floor as well, but even I have my limits. Particularly since I'm already running low on glasses...

There's still enough ice to hold them if the dogs tread carefully but big patches of open water, too.
किसी के साथ रिलेशनशिप में होना एक सुखद अनुभूति का एहसास कराता है लेकिन जब यही रिश्ता टूटता है तो काफी तकलीफ भी होती है. अगर आप भी किसी ऐसी ही परिस्थिति से जूझ रहे हैं तो निश्चित रूप से यह समय आपके लिए तकलीफदेह है.

Yesterday, 11 October, American actress Diane Keaton (1946-2025) passed away at the age of 79. She was one of the biggest female Hollywood stars of the 1970s and 1980s. Her greatest successes include The Godfather (1972), Looking for Mr. Goodbar (1977), and Reds (1981). Keaton and Woody Allen made eight films together: Play It Again, Sam (1972), Sleeper (1973), Love and Death (1975), Annie Hall (1977), Interiors (1978), Manhattan (1979), Radio Days (1987) and Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993). Diane Keaton won an Oscar for Annie Hall (1977).
Diane Keaton was born Diane Halle in Los Angeles in 1946. Keaton was the eldest of four children. Her father, Jack Hall, was a civil engineer, and her mother, Dorothy Keaton, was a housewife and amateur photographer. Keaton studied drama at Santa Ana College, but left after three semesters at the age of nineteen to pursue a career in Manhattan. She had to change her name when she wanted to register with the actors' union, as there was already a Diane Hall registered, and the union required that, to avoid confusion, no two people with the same name could be registered. She chose the name ‘Keaton’, her mother's maiden name. In New York, she took classes at the Neighborhood Playhouse theatre school. She also worked as a singer for a short time during those years. In 1968, she landed a supporting role and became an understudy for one of the leading roles in the successful Broadway rock musical 'Hair'. She gained some notoriety as the only actress who refused to undress when all the other actors were naked. In 1969, Woody Allen asked her to star in his play 'Play It Again, Sam'. For this, she was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play. Around that time, she began a relationship with Woody Allen. While performing in this play, she received many offers from Hollywood and in 1970, she played her first film role in the comedy Lovers and Other Strangers (Cy Howard, 1970), starring Gig Young and Bea Arthur. That same year, she appeared in a commercial for deodorant.
Diane Keaton had her big breakthrough when Francis Ford Coppola cast her as Kay Adams-Corleone, the wife of mafia boss Michael Corleone, in The Godfather (Francis Ford Coppola, 1972). The film is based on the book of the same name by Mario Puzo. Keaton told People magazine in 2022 that she had not read the bestseller before being cast in the role. ‘I didn't know anything about it. I just auditioned. That was great for me. And then I had to read the book,’ Keaton said. The Godfather was a huge financial and critical success, winning the Academy Award for Best Picture, among other awards. She also played this role in the other two parts of the trilogy, The Godfather Part II (Francis Ford Coppola, 1974) and The Godfather Part III (Francis Ford Coppola, 1990). In 1972, she also starred alongside Woody Allen in the film version of Play It Again, Sam (Herbert Ross, 1972). Although their relationship had ended by the time they made the film, the two remained very close. Allen would cast her several times in eccentric roles in his comedy films during the 1970s, including Sleeper (Woody Allen, 1973), Love and Death (Woody Allen, 1975), Interiors (Woody Allen, 1978) and Manhattan (Woody Allen, 1979). The most famous film they made together is Annie Hall (Woody Allen, 1977). The story revolves around the troubled relationship between Alvy Singer (Woody Allen) and Annie Hall (Diane Keaton). Keaton started a fashion trend with her tomboy clothing style, which included cardigans, ties and fedora hats. She won an Oscar for her role as Annie Hall. ‘It was an idealised version of myself,’ she said of her role in an interview. In total, they collaborated on eight films. Her friendship with Allen remained very strong. She always stood by him, even after the allegations of sexual abuse he allegedly committed against his adopted daughter, Dylan Farrow.
Diane Keaton feared that she would be known primarily as a comedienne. In 1977, she took on the lead role as a promiscuous teacher in the controversial drama Looking for Mr. Goodbar (Richard Brooks, 1977) with Richard Gere, for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. In 1979, after the filming of Manhattan, her long working relationship with Woody Allen came to an end. It was not until 1993 that the two would work together again. In the late 1970s, she began a relationship with Warren Beatty, with whom she would co-star in Reds (Warren Beatty, 1981). For her role as radical journalist Louise Bryant, she received both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award nomination. In the 1980s, she appeared in only a few films. She starred in the action thriller The Little Drummer Girl (George Roy Hill, 1984), but the film was not a great success. Crimes of the Heart (Bruce Beresford, 1986) was a minor success, in which she appeared alongside Jessica Lange and Sissy Spacek. In 1987, she had a big hit with the comedy Baby Boom (Charles Shyer, 1987), about a career woman who suddenly has to take care of a baby. That same year, she had a cameo as a nightclub singer in Woody Allen's Radio Days. The Good Mother (Leonard Nimoy, 1988) was a critical and financial disappointment. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, she alternated acting with directing. In 1987, she directed her first film, a documentary, Heaven, about life after death. In the years that followed, she also directed television films, music videos, including Belinda Carlisle's ‘Heaven is a Place on Earth’, and episodes of TV series, including an episode of Twin Peaks. In 1995, she directed her first theatrically released feature film, Unstrung Heroes, a sensitive drama about a son who loses his mother to a serious illness. As an actress, she appeared as Steve Martin's wife in Father of the Bride (Charles Shyer, 1991) and its sequel, Father of the Bride Part II (Charles Shyer, 1995). She reunited with Woody Allen in Manhattan Murder Mystery (Woody Allen, 1993), after Mia Farrow, originally slated to play the lead, dropped out following her and Allen's notorious breakup. In 1996, she starred alongside Goldie Hawn and Bette Midler in her biggest commercial success of the decade, the comedy The First Wives Club (Hugh Wilson, 1996). That same year, she received her third Academy Award nomination for her role as a leukaemia patient in the film Marvin's Room (Jerry Zaks, 1996) with Meryl Streep, Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro.
In 2000, Diane Keaton starred in and directed the film Hanging Up, starring Meg Ryan and Lisa Kudrow. The film wasn't a huge success, nor was Town & Country (Peter Chelsom, 2001), in which she reunited with Warren Beatty. Keaton had her first real hit since 1996 with the film Something's Gotta Give (Nancy Meyers, 2003) starring Jack Nicholson. The romantic comedy garnered attention due to the age of its leads (Keaton was 57 at the time, Nicholson 66), which was considered a bold choice for a romantic comedy. It was also the first film in which Keaton had a nude scene. She briefly appeared topless. Keaton received her fourth Academy Award nomination for this film. In 2003, she also executive-produced Gus Van Sant's drama Elephant, which received several awards at the Cannes Film Festival. Later, Keaton starred in the film Mad Money (Callie Khouri, 2008), starring Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes. Michael Douglas co-starred with her in the romantic comedy And So It Goes (Rob Reiner, 2014). Her final film was the quirky comedy Summer Camp (Castille Landon, 2024) with Kathy Bates and Alfre Woodard. Diane Keaton had relationships with actors Woody Allen, Al Pacino and Warren Beatty, who, according to her, came into her life at different ‘decades’. ‘Woody was my twenties, Warren my thirties, and Al my late thirties and early forties,’ she told the British newspaper The Telegraph in 2003. She never married. Later in life, she said that she realised that men were not important in her life. ‘I remember when I was young, I had this ridiculous belief that you would find someone to grow old with. Not being married doesn't make my life any less fulfilling. That old spinster myth is nonsense.’ At the age of fifty, in 1996, she adopted her daughter Dexter, followed five years later by her son Duke. Motherhood had, in her own words, completely changed her. Like her mother, Keaton was interested in photography. In 1980, her photographs were published in a book, 'Reservations'. A second book, 'Still Life', appeared in 1983. She wrote a memoir about her relationship with her alcoholic brother Randy, 'Brother & Sister' (2020). In it, she published a letter that her brother wrote to her after seeing her in one of her films: "There are times in Reds (1981) when I wanted to stop the projector, so the moment wouldn't move so fast. Where did you learn to use your face so well? I think you ran across every emotion in the book, then threw the book away and made up some of your own". When a journalist read the letter back to her, Diane could barely hold back her tears when she responded, "That was sweet of him. I don't know what to say....I'm sorry." Diane Keaton died on 11 October 2025, in California, at the age of 79.

Before the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Soviet Air Force and Naval Aviation had a large contingent of aircraft and weapons stationed in Ukraine. These included the 5th, 14th, and 17th Air Armies plus five regiments of the 46th Air Army, Long Range Aviation, and significant portions of the Soviet Naval Aviation (Black Sea Fleet). After the collapse of the Soviet Union, these forces became the property of the newly independent Ukraine. The Ukrainian Air Force, established on 17 March 1992, inherited a large number of Tu-22M2/M3 bombers from the 185th Guards, 260th, and 402nd Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiments and the 5th Guards, 124th, 170th Guards, and 943rd Maritime Missile Aviation Regiments. These forces were gathered into the Ukrainian Long-Range Aviation Group and the Ukrainian Naval Aviation.
Ukraine’s Long-Range Aviation and Naval Aviation units found it difficult to operate due to the deep economic crisis in Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union, pressure from the U.S. State Department on Ukraine to eliminate its nuclear and strategic forces, the lack of support from production plants and design bureaus which remained in Russia, the reduction in the size of the armed forces resulting in the loss of experienced pilots and supporting personnel, and the life expectancy of some aircraft components and assemblies had expired.
