These gulls for all the "stuff" they eat are spotless creatures as can be seen near St.John's, NL.

Heavy rains have cleared logs, clutter and a railing from Empress Falls recently, leaving it sparkling clean for winter.

Shot here in a pano then run through Color Effex 4 (a program I never use - but no idea why not)

~ Sihtric ~

Sihtric Runeblade, brother to the moonlit enchantress Odania, is a warrior of unrelenting spirit and calculated precision. Where others charge blindly into chaos, he fights with purpose, each strike measured, each step deliberate. His demeanor is as sharp as his blade: reserved, calculating, yet fiercely loyal to those he calls kin. He values honor above glory, balance above dominance, and purpose above all else.

I have a rather large collection of silver rings and jewelry that need to be cleaned.😑

Twenty-one. The last image of this series so far.

The amount of quarries in Wales is so large that it was sheer impossible to see even a small part of it. I truly hope to go back again, after all, the impression left by the mines was unparalleled.

Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to have a look at these dark scenes and thank you also for your thoughtful and kind comments.

Wish you a very nice weekend.

Part of the series "Welsh slate quarries":

The photo captures a cyberpunk-style being, equipped with glowing tattoos, cleaning the streets with a futuristic gun. The setting is a dark alley with luminous signs and graffiti. The scene is intense and vibrant, with light reflections everywhere, encapsulating the chaos and innovation of the cyberpunk world.

I love these boots. I've trudged many miles in these I've had them going on 8 years. Plenty of life left in them yet and no cleaning will be done. Desert life is definitely better in boots.

Today WAH are visiting le boot

Intensive cleaning today, inside and outside. ^_^

And the best thing is..."at the moment" i have lots of room left for more toys.

Cleaning

A Pied avocet (Recurvirostra avosetta) was captured during a clean take off with elegant style. The charm of composition is the neat and clean posture of the bird and the delightful backdrop bokeh. Pics was taken from Teesta River in Siliguri, West Bengal, India.

This particular stream in Tower Grove Park does not always have water, but when it does it's a real magnet for migrants. I think there was a lineup of kinglets in the surrounding trees waiting to come down and bathe-- no sooner would one leave than another would come and take its place.

The new Calatrava-designed walkway under the World trade Center.

Wednesday was bright for a change, but cold & windy. Storm Chandra had not long swept over Ireland, the waves were still battering Tramore beach. The yellow & red roofed building is the lifeguard station (unmanned in winter). The waves were crashing over the top of it. Uploading for Saturday Self-Challenge theme "Weather with you" HSSC!

I take part in regular beach clean up sessions here, doing my bit for the environment. The people in blue tabards are those of us clearing up the rubbish: fishing nets, nylon rope, bits of plastic, textiles, medical waste & various other items discarded or washed in by the tide. One of the cafes on the promenade is kind enough to provide us with a free hot drink after our exertions.

05/100 : My 100x photos this year will be taken in & around Tramore, a seaside town on the South East coast of Ireland.

DSC_3461. Common Kingfisher/Alcedo atthis (female)!

The youngsters left the nest and mother Kingfisher is now flying around, taking dives and using the trees cleaning up her feathers!

It's great watching them (the whole family) while flying over the water and having fun together!

"OK, I've got the parking lot. Who's got the dumpsters and picnic tables? Also, remember, finders-keepers. No sharing with the gulls."

Thinking today about the great, Gary Larson. Thanks for all of the laughs, Gary.

An F-22 from the Nellis-based 422nd TES departing Edwards Air Force base as dash-two in two-ship of Raptors for some air-to-air work against three F-16s hauling AN/ALQ-167 jamming pods.

Fresh snow combined with a code blue sky makes for a nice setting as 4211 leads LTV's recently washed "geep" set west through Cramer with 96 empties. This train was the 0300 job running a tad tardy, possibly due to dumping delays at Taconite Harbor. Three GP20s and two GP38-3s trail 4211.
