Arlington National Cemetery, change of guard at tomb of unknown soldier, one of most solemn ceremony in US. The US President or senior ranking officer will attend this event on Memorial day and Veteran's day
Normally, the King Johann Monument in Dresden, as seen here, is always photographed from the front (by me too). This is because, firstly, you don't see the horse's rump, and secondly, you have the imposing Semperoper opera house in the background.
However, on this particular evening, the setting sun illuminated the Hausmann Tower so beautifully that, while searching for a suitable foreground, I decided to try this perspective.
I think (horse's rump or not) it works quite well.
Normalerweise wird das hier zu sehende König-Johann-Denkmal in Dresden immer von vorn fotografiert (auch von mir). Weil man zum Einen nicht auf den Hintern des Pferdes schaut und weil man dann zum Anderen die imposante Semperoper im Hintergrund hat.
An diesem Abend hier brachte die untergehende Sonne jedoch den Hausmannsturm so schön zum Leuchten, dass ich mich, auf der Suche nach einem geeigneten Vordergrund, mal für diese Perspektive entschieden habe.
Ich finde (Pferdehintern hin oder her), dass passt auch ganz gut.

Slipknot- Snuff
Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again
So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know
I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your lights
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight
So save your breath, I will not care
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go
So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care don't ever let me know
If you still care don't ever let me know
Standing on top of a cliff and shooting the Green Bridge in Wales, reminded me that this is the decade where so many of us finally awoke to realise that climate change is here.
I hope that part of the outcome of the US presidential election will bring a window of opportunity to change matters for the better.
Rejoining the Paris climate accord would be an encouraging first step in the right direction.

Landscapes, especially forests aren't static. The lighting changes within minutes, weather can change in hours and what can seem static decay and move over time. With my project now running over five years you may even see changes in my photo-stream.
It appears that the seasons have become confused. This is a poppy bursting into flower in my garden today. My first choice for my Photo a Day was our garden hydrangea just 'turning over ' until I noticed this.

Some of you know that I did not vote for our president-elect, but I will respect him. I believe that God is in control and has orchestrated the outcome of this election to accomplish His purposes. And I will pray for him, as I do for all those in authority.
"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior.." 1 Tim. 2:1-3
A huge autumn leaf was nestled in blades of green grass in our backyard. A macro seemed to be most fitting as the sunlight gave backlighting to the leaf. Temperatures in the fifties early this morning. Signs of seasonal changes are beginning to appear here in north Alabama. - Morgan County, Alabama - 2017.
A classic early summer landscape of the Julian Alps. The melting snow brings large amounts of water that funnel and then create these beautiful waterfalls. The flowers and the dense vegetation of a very lively green create a fascinating contrast.
This F-105B Thunderchief from the 141st TFS/108th TFG New Jersey Air National Guard was photographed at its home base, McGuire AFB, on 22 April 1978.
The 108th flew the F-105 from 1964 to 1981, all in the F-105B model. F-4Ds were received in 1981 followed by F-4Es in 1985. The unit's mission changed in 1991 to that of aerial refueling which brought KC-135Es into operation. The Es were exchanged for KC-135Rs in 2007. Today, KC-46As are the current equipment having been operated since 2023.
Three diverted liveried 66s head north on the 17:54 Toton to Belmont. EWS liveried with DB branding 66172 leads unbranded EWS liveried 66112 and DB livered 66149 past Slitting Mill crossing and the remains of the old crossing.
Ironically 66149 was my previous upload running on the Teesside to Boulby Potash circuit.

"Rules of Change" by Neil Young
Out of balance, money grows
Corporations take control
Halls of justice got this wrong
Life cannot be owned
Halls of justice leave a hollow ring inside
When I try to forget
Things I know that no one knows but me
Wrong side of right, right side of wrong
I always had the plan to post more shots of the wonderful Iskanderkul in Tajikistan, but it is already three years ago that I finished my trip through central Asia, and how the world has changed since then.
Beside this shot www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/49221949713/in/photol..., that I posted a long time ago, there were many more.
This image was taken when we left early next morning. The scenery was gorgeous thanks to the light and the haze, and the lake got a wonderful turquoise color.
Iskanderkul is situated in the northwest of Tajikistan, in the Fann-mountains. I am not sure if it was named after Alexander the great, the stories are somewhat vague on this matter, but what is sure is that the dacha of the Tajik president is situated at the east end of the lake.
We spent two days at this lake, and although this scenery is fantastic it took me a lot of pictures to capture its grandness. Not only the lake but the surrounding mountains are so stunning you don't know where to look all the time. Enjoy!
20 September 2019 I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.
Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!
We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.
And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.

A pair of American Goldfinches ride out the first significant snowfall of the season perched, fittingly, on winterberry.
On Piz Lughin (2780 m), I had a hard time into deciding what to admire: the multiple colours of the peak itself, the storm covering Lej da Segl and the rain on Lägh da Lunghin. Also, that day the lakes' colour hue changed. And obviously, I was thinking of the safest way down!
Part of a flock of about a dozen Bearded Tits collecting grit from the path to help digest their winter seed diet. I could hear all the pinging but was looking at the reed tops rather than the path. Unfortunately not much detail in this shot, but it gives a better idea of the behaviour than my other closer shots.
Popped into the Jackson Junge Gallery in Chicago recently, only to encounter a change of venue wedding. The young couple had been scheduled to have an outdoor wedding, but the weather had something to say about that. I did not notice the photo bombing until after I left. I think it actually adds to the photo. Take care everybody, B
