An exotic high-altitude walking trail in the mountains of Troodos and one of the best trails on the whole island, clearly marked, well-cut-out paths.
Views and landscapes keep on changing as you walk.
Beautiful pass through the forest.
A 7 Km walk with a nice view of the villages around Troodos mountain.
The trail is named after the Goddess Artemis, daughter of Zeus and Leto and the twin sister of the God Apollo. The route circles Mount Olympus (Chionistra) at an average altitude of 1,850m. With help from the information signs along the trail, you will have a chance to explore the forest, including two ancient black pines (pinus nigra) that are more than 500 years old; rich and rare flora (with species such as catmint, germander, alyssum, Troodos sage, and juniper); and the rocks of the area (such as dunite, harzburgite, pyroxenite). Moreover, you will enjoy a beautiful view in the direction of the villages of the Limassol, Paphos, and Nicosia districts. The whole trail is inside the Troodos National Forest Park a natural 2000 area.

The Beautiful Changes
BY RICHARD WILBUR
One wading a Fall meadow finds on all sides
The Queen Anne’s Lace lying like lilies
On water; it glides
So from the walker, it turns
Dry grass to a lake, as the slightest shade of you
Valleys my mind in fabulous blue Lucernes.
The beautiful changes as a forest is changed
By a chameleon’s tuning his skin to it;
As a mantis, arranged
On a green leaf, grows
Into it, makes the leaf leafier, and proves
Any greenness is deeper than anyone knows.
Your hands hold roses always in a way that says
They are not only yours; the beautiful changes
In such kind ways,
Wishing ever to sunder
Things and things’ selves for a second finding, to lose
For a moment all that it touches back to wonder.
The Evzones (Greek: Εύζωνες), is the name of several historical elite light infantry and mountain units of the Greek Army.
Today, it refers to the members of the Presidential Guard, an elite ceremonial unit that guards the Greek Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Presidential Mansion and the gate of Evzones camp in Athens. The Evzones are also known, colloquially, as Tsoliades.
I'm adding this picture of the Amber Fort in Jaipur as World Elephant Day is tomorrow. It was my next stop after Ranthambore Park as well. This trip encompassed so many varied destinations. It was a difficult, but an outstanding itinerary.
There are demonstrations occurring in the city as the day grows near. I will let you read the article.

I first saw elephants in Asia where they are used as working beats of burden. It seemed so common place I gave the practice little thought until I went to Africa and saw the gentle giants in the wild. My thoughts changed and it is nice to see that the Indian people are demanding change

I could not resist posting another image of the Nankeen Kestrel (Falco cenchroides) because of the different canvas I was able to capture the bird flying along the beach.
Old and broken pillions become a thing of interest for my camera. As i lean over a bridge to compose a shot, the once useful pier is little more than sticks in the mud. Their combined direction contributes to the notion of time and looking back on a different era. However, the interplay of colors, textures, and shapes make and engrossing tale of change.

So much happened recently and obviously all for a good change.
Not just my hair changed but so much more.
I just build a new home for my family and me to enjoy summer to the fullest and I cannot wait to share with them.
When painting the walls of our new home I thought I could need a new paint too! There you go!
All I gonna need the next months is sun screen and shorts.. done.
Oh and BTW: my golden bracelet says “Florens”
My darling hurry back to me soon! I miss you terribly! ❤️

My first job is to say thank you to those who voted for me.
Those who didn't, I'm going to get your vote next time.

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss? HELL NO !

I can change my origami-tessellations literally, by folding but also with PS ;-))
Just experimenting and having fun. Hope you like this snows-face ;-))
As seasons change we see too the brilliance isn’t quite what we’ve witnessed in months past. Nevertheless it doesn’t takeaway the beauty or our appreciation for these Roses. Enjoy you garden daily until the frost strikes. It’s all worth it. Thanks for viewing my work. Gratitude and Kindness will remain long after the gardens have been turned.

It is a maple that is starting to change color.
The maples on the lakeside are already beautifully colored.
こちらは色の変わり始めのモミジです。

The panorama of Ilyinskoe village from the bridge of Belaya Kholunitsa river. I haven't been here for a long time. Now I see some new buildings on the high river bank, but the church remains abandoned. Changing weather of this June complements the scene well.
Thank you for all the comments and favs, my friends.
Autumn reminds me of continual change more than any other season.

The hues change, leaves fall, light lessens each day. Today I let the wind blow the autumn leaves until I found a RAW image I sort of liked. Shooting into the sun.
Thanks for looking, for your faves, and for your comments.

Here in Colorado Springs we get all the 4 seasons, sometimes all in one day! Two days ago it snowed and temps were in the single digits. Today it was sunny and in the 50's.

Winter is starting now, but we have not much to fear in the subtropics. Most days are sunny and beautiful and rarely too cold.
Decided to change the framing ot my pictures now.
Summer is gone, Autumn has come. Leaves changing their colours and they will fall on the ground soon...
