Questa mattina ho provato a ritrarre le simpatiche cincie che rallegrano il nostro giardino, con la loro presenza, durante i mesi invernali. Le vedevo dalla finestra della cucina, ma se appena facevo tanto di uscire se la filavano come frecce. Allora mi è venuta una brillante idea...mi sono mimetizzato. Mi sono buttato in testa una vecchia coperta, mi sono avvicinato all'acero e ho atteso pazientemente. La pazienza mi ha premiato! Sicuramente, chi mi avrà visto, passando dal parcheggio di fronte a casa mia, si sarà fatto quattro risate, pensando che fossi pazzo...ma sono riuscito ad avere il mio ritratto della simpatica cincia.!! :))

Buck Canyon Overlook
Island in the Sky
Canyonlands National Park
Utah
November 2015
From the overlook, you’re looking out over Buck Canyon, a broad V-shaped cut into the high mesa. Sheer cliff edges and deep fissures in the desert floor create a dramatic pattern of layered rock, ridges, and shadowed folds stretching into the distance. On most days, the colorful sedimentary rocks in the foreground contrast strikingly with the La Sal Mountains far to the east.

This image diplays in its middle the reflection of a rock formation in a puddle, image rotated by 180°. The texture visible in the blue sky is actually the rock at the ground of the puddle.

Whimsical hooks for towels and clothes made to look like a dog’s hind end. One should never take life too seriously.

I visited south Texas to photograph songbirds and raptors and I came home with thousands of shots.
Here, two Caracaras were vying for the same food. So one bird head butted the other to make him leave.

Badlands National Park (Lakota: Makȟóšiča) is an American national park located in southwestern South Dakota. The park protects 242,756 acres (379.3 sq mi; 982.4 km2) of sharply eroded buttes and pinnacles, along with the largest undisturbed mixed grass prairie in the United States. The National Park Service manages the park, with the South Unit being co-managed with the Oglala Lakota tribe.
The Badlands Wilderness protects 64,144 acres (100.2 sq mi; 259.6 km2) of the park's North Unit as a designated wilderness area, and is one site where the black-footed ferret, one of the most endangered mammals in the world, was reintroduced to the wild. The South Unit, or Stronghold District, includes sites of 1890s Ghost Dances, a former United States Air Force bomb and gunnery range, and Red Shirt Table, the park's highest point at 3,340 feet (1,020 m).
Authorized as Badlands National Monument on March 4, 1929, it was not established until January 25, 1939. Badlands was redesignated a national park on November 10, 1978. Under the Mission 66 plan, the Ben Reifel Visitor Center was constructed for the monument in 1957–58. The park also administers the nearby Minuteman Missile National Historic Site. The movies Dances with Wolves (1990) and Thunderheart (1992) were partially filmed in Badlands National Park.
This national park was originally a reservation of the Oglala Sioux Indians and spans the southern unit of the park. The area around Stronghold Table was originally Sioux territory, and is revered as a ceremonial sacred site rather than a place to live.
In 1868, at the Second Treaty of Fort Laramie, the United States assured the Sioux that the Badlands shall forever be the property of the Sioux. In 1889, however, the treaty was broken and the Badlands were confiscated by the United States and unilaterally incorporated into a national park.
At the end of the 19th century, the Sioux Indians used this area as the site of the Ghost Dance, a ceremony to revive the souls of buffalo and the dead. After the last ghost dance in 1890, the United States banned the ritual, but it was revived by the Red Power movement, a movement to restore Indian rights that began in the 1960s. In 1980, the U.S. Supreme Court awarded compensation to the Sioux for the abrogation of the 1868 treaty, but the Sioux did not accept the money.

Coyote Buttes South is less visited than the North and access is difficult which is good for me... less crowd.
This little "butte" was a volcano once. The magma in the crater cooled off and created these polygonal columns. The surrounding rocks have been eroded, laying the basalt formations free.
This place has been used a stone quarry from 1930 to 1960. Now it is a geological "show room".

Well, somebody said a participant to the masturi forgot his pant... this is not exactly the case as going bare-butted like this is traditional for men during a matsuri. I have seen nicer butts, but this is the best I could shoot.
From wikipedia (as suggested by myasu), some explanation about this outfit:
Fundoshi (褌?) is the traditional Japanese undergarment for adult males, made from a length of cotton. Before World War II the fundoshi was the main form of underwear for Japanese adult males; however it went out of use quickly after the war with the advent of new underwear, such as briefs and trunks, on the Japanese market.
Nowadays, the fundoshi is mainly used not as underwear but as festival (matsuri) clothing at Hadaka Matsuri or, sometimes, as swimwear.
There are several types of fundoshi, including rokushaku, kuroneko, mokko and etchū.
The rokushaku fundoshi is a length of cloth, the dimensions being one shaku (34 cm / 14 inches) wide and six shaku (2.3 m / 92 to 96 inches) long; roku is Japanese for six, hence roku-shaku. The fundoshi is often twisted to create a thong effect at the back.
Etchū fundoshi is also a length of cloth, however it has a strip of material at the waist to form a fastening or string. The dimensions are 14 inches width by about 40 inches length, and it is tied with the material strip in front of the body. Etchū fundoshi was the form of fundoshi most popular among Japanese adult males as underwear from early 1900s to the end of the World War II.
No, this is not the world famous Wave, though it is in the general vicinity. the Wave has 400+ applicants each day for 20 permits. One can still get permits to this area, tho I do not know for how much longer. Tour groups are now bring their truck loads of clients, much to my dismay.
I visited Great Brook Farm while in the Carlisle area today, where these to calves were playing. They'll be providing milk soon for the farm's delicious ice cream.
kills.
sorry for the blurry picture. i was giggling and thinking "i wonder what would happen if i put a coin in it?"

The Pawnee Buttes are two prominent buttes located within the Pawnee National Grassland in Weld County, of northeastern Colorado. Rising approximately 300 feet above the surrounding plains, the buttes are erosional remnants left standing in isolation as the surrounding High Plains surface has gradually worn away. The lower portions of the buttes are composed of relatively soft, clay-rich sedimentary rock called the Brule formation. The Brule formation is protected by an overlying layer of sandstone and conglomerate sediments called the Arikaree formation, which are more resistant to weathering. - Wikipedia
Well, not a great shot since I scared my model away -- but I found her butt compelling, lol. I love these colors. Shot handheld with a Quantaray 50mm F2.8 Tech-10 macro lens in available light.
Mardi Gras 2009: at Hotel Lyles Just for the record I didn't take this shot. Walker had the camera a good deal of the time and came back with a lot of butt shots.
The things one learns about. You can buy a toilet seat lifter, a hard plastic ring that elevates your rear a few inches. Why on earth would you do this? Well, imagine if you couldn't bend your leg to sit. All of a sudden the bathroom seems a whole lot smaller, as your fully extended fiberglass extension hits the wall in front of you. Lift your rump a few inches, and you can pull your foot closer in towards you.
I ran a full minute exposure while burying a blue LED under the lifter. It glowed very appealingly, like a cheap effect from an 80s video.
