Life is but a brief journey through time. The Awe of the Grand Canyon makes us pause and ponder the real scale of time. A true beast of nature, the climate, has had it up’s and Downs: Hot periods, Cold periods, Glaciers to Floods, Tropics to Mountains, and, Today, here sets one of the great testaments to those violent periods in the evolution of Earth.
Mans existence is but a blink in the vast time scale of Earth. And yet, from her violent past, she leaves us this great spectacle so we may glimpse her troubled past.

This looks nice: Large on Black
I will take a break from posting Iceland pictures while I go out today exploring in the wiles of geysers and earth-turned-inside-out to bring you this shot from Amsterdam.
Will got very tired of carrying my tripod, and he claimed to be tired after standing all day at the game conference. I told him just to be quiet because he was in the house of God and God didn't want to hear his blasphemous belly-aching.
All comments regarding this picture, subject, composition, etc are welcome and appreciated. TIA.

Many thanks for the visits, faves and comments. Cheers
Red-capped Robin (they are very difficult to photograph - fast darting little critters)
Scientific Name: Petroica goodenovii
Description: The male Red-capped Robin is black above and white below with a distinctive scarlet-red cap, white shoulders, and a red breast that contrasts strongly with a black throat. The black wing is barred white and the tail is black with white edges. Females are quite different in appearance: grey-brown above and off-white below, with a reddish cap, brown-black wings barred buff to white, and some have faint red on the breast. Young birds are similar to females but are streaked white above, have an pale buff wing bar and their breast and sides are streaked or mottled dark-brown.
Similar species: The Red-capped Robin is the smallest red robin. It can be distinguished from other red robins by the unique red cap in the male, and by the dull red cap in the female. Males are similar to the Crimson Chat, Epthianura tricolor, but this species has a white throat, a white eye, is not as plump and lacks the white wing streak.
Distribution: The Red-capped Robin is found from Queensland (rarely above latitude 20°S), through New South Wales, mainly west of the Great Dividing Range, to Victoria and South Australia. Also found in Western Australia in inland regions north to the Pilbara region, rarely being seen on south coast or far south-west. An isolated population occurs on Rottnest Island. Widespread in Northern Territory south of latitude 20°S. The Red-capped Robin will visit areas along the east coast during droughts.
Habitat: The Red-capped Robin is found in most inland habitats that have tall trees or shrubs, such as eucalypt, acacia and cypress pine woodlands. It is mainly found in the arid and semi-arid zones, south of the Tropics, with some extension into coastal regions. The species is seen on farms with scattered trees, as well as vineyards and orchards. It is only occasionally reported in gardens.
Seasonal movements: Partial seasonal migrant, moving to more open areas in winter, usually in south of range.
Feeding: The Red-capped Robin feeds on insects and other invertebrates. It forages on the ground or in low vegetation, and will often perch on a stump or fallen branch, darting down to take insects from the ground. Can be seen in mixed feeding flocks with other small insect-eating birds such as Willie Wagtails, Rufous Whistlers and Black-faced Woodswallows.
Breeding: Red-capped Robins breed in pairs within a breeding territory established and defended by the male. The male sings from perches around the boundary of the territory to deter other Red-capped Robins and also other robin species, such as the Scarlet Robin, P. multicolor. The female chooses a nest site in a tree-fork and builds an open, cup-shaped nest of bark, grass, and rootlets, bound together with spider web, lined with soft materials and often camoflaged with lichen, bark and mosses. The male feeds the female during nest-building and incubation. The female incubates the eggs alone and both sexes feed the young. Once the young have fledged, they may remain in their parents' territories for up to one and a half months before dispersing. Nests may be parasitised by cuckoos. Predators of nestlings include the Grey Shrike-thrush, Colluricincla harmonica, and the Grey Butcherbird, Craticus torquatus.
Research by the Australian Museum (Major et al., 1999) has shown that male Red-capped Robin density is much lower in small, linear bushland remnants than in large non-linear remnants. The small remnants represented a higher risk of predation, making them much less suitable as breeding habitat.
Calls: Males sing with characteristic dry, repeated trill: 'dit-dit-drr-it'. Both sexes have a 'tick' call.
Average size: 12cm
Average weight: 9g
Breeding season: June to January
Clutch Size: Two or three; occasionally one, rarely four.
Incubation: 13 days
Nestling Period: 14 days

Paris XIXe - France
J'étais déjà allé sur ce lieu mais je n'avais pas trouvé comment accéder aux voies. Je n'avais pas trop cherché non plus car ce soir-là je photographiais des graffitis en contrebas. J'y suis donc retourné, et finalement, c'est en voyant des gens y accéder que j'ai compris qu'avec un minimum d'escalade c'était assez facilement accessible.
Il y avait 3 petits groupes de personnes sur les voies ferrées (un couple, un groupe de 2 et un groupe de 5) qui profitaient de l'ambiance du lieu. Hormis pour le couple, alcool et pétards avaient grand succès ! :-)
C'est le petit groupe de 2 personnes qui m'a montré comment accéder aux voies car ils sont arrivés en même temps que moi. Ils m'ont proposé de partager un pétard avec eux, j'ai décliné l'offre, j'étais venu à moto, fallait ensuite que je rentre à moto... vivant ! :-)))
(Source : pariszigzag.fr)
Qui n’a pas aperçu, un jour dans Paris, une voie de chemin de fer à l’abandon ? Des rails envahis de verdure, une obscure ouverture de tunnel, des murs couverts de tags ou d’anciens aiguillages rouillés…..tous oubliés ?
La Petite Ceinture (ou PC) est une double voie de chemin de fer intégralement intra-muros, circulaire et désaffectée, ce qui en fait un vestige unique dans la capitale. Elle a servi au transport de marchandises puis de voyageurs pendant plus de 70 ans et cours sur 23 km de long (contre 32 km à l’origine) !
Une des particularités réside dans la grande discrétion de son tracé : la Petite Ceinture est quasiment invisible depuis la rue puisqu’elle a été construite soit en hauteur, en souterrains ou en tranchées comme au milieu des parcs Montsouris et des Buttes Chaumont.
Pourquoi sa création?
Imaginée sous le règne Napoléon III, la Petite Ceinture avait pour rôle de relier entre elles les principales gares parisiennes qui formaient alors les terminus des lignes provinciales pour le transit du fret puis des passagers. Et également un but de défense militaire pour desservir les casernes au pied des fortifications du Paris de l’époque.
Ce fut un réel succès, avec un rythme d’un train toutes les 30 minutes, s’arrêtant aux 29 stations qui jalonnaient la ligne. Notez que les visiteurs de l’Exposition Universelle de 1900 ont pu transiter via la Petite Ceinture.
La Petite Ceinture, précurseur du métro parisien dans son mode de fonctionnement, subie l’essor de l’automobile et des lignes de bus qui causèrent sa mise à l’arrêt en 1934.
Et de nos jours ?
Dans le 12ème arrondissement, la Petite Ceinture a été transformée en promenade et en jardins partagés et dans le 16ème arrondissement, entre Porte d’Auteuil et la Muette, en parcours écologique long d’ 1,5 km.
D’autres tronçons ont été réutilisées : emprunté par l’actuel RER C à l’Ouest ou encore ayant servie aux essais du métro automatique Météor (actuelle ligne 14) dans les années 90.
Pour ce qu’il reste des gares et des quais, très peu sont encore visibles et debout. La nature a repris le dessus, les tags également et la verdure envahit la ferraille et le béton.
Cette petite ceinture reste un formidable terrain de jeu pour les amateurs d’urbex -exploration urbaine – et héberge toute une faune et une flore inimaginable dans Paris (insectes, oiseaux, chauve-souris et même des faisans). C’est par exemple sur son tracé que l’on peut accéder aux anciennes carrières de Paris.
En s’y aventurant, on pénètre dans un monde de silence car la Petite Ceinture échappe au bruit de la rue : quitter le tumulte et l’agitation pour rejoindre le calme de la nature qui a repris ses droits, et observer les traces du temps qui passe.
Et demain ?
L’engouement pour la Petite Ceinture touche à la fois les politiques (RATP, SNCF, Réseau Ferrés de France, la Mairie de Paris) et les particuliers qui se regroupent en associations de sauvegarde pour proposer des solutions d’aménagements sachant que la ville est en manque de place mais possède cet espace inutilisé.
Had this image as private to use in comments but it kept disappearing in the comments so i made it public, hoping that stops.
This is just the wider angle view of taken less than a minute from a previous post but the mist was changing so fast it looked a bit different.
No comments necessary on this one, please use previous post

Used in a variety of combat situations, the Gravehead assault drone is a weapon of pure force. Boasting heavy armor, an enhanced sensor pod, and a generally very destructive weapon, this drone has been used by a variety of corporations and security units to dominate the battlefield. It's most noted usage was by that of the Golden Hand private military corporation, who deployed dozens of Graveheads to destroy all gang violence in sector 10 of the Beverley Hills slums. While they succeeded in making that portion of the slums a safer place temporarily, several Golden Hand officials were convicted of authorizing the use of brutal force against possible innocents.
For best brickr against legomania and bezor-1.
Also fuck yo cyborgs, drones are still cool.
Sorry for the terrible photo. :/

Latin name: Grus vipio - White-Naped Crane
One of 4 poses captured during a preening session.
This Crane breeds in northeastern Mongolia, northeastern Chine and southeastern Russia, where a program at Khingan Nature Reserve raises eggs provided from U.S. zoos to bolster the species. Different groups of the birds migrate to winter near the Yangtze River, the DMZ in Korea and on Kyūshū in Japan. They also reach Kazakhstan and Taiwan. Only about 4,900 and 5,400 individuals remain in the wild.
It is a large bird, 112–125 cm long, approximately 130 cm tall and weighing about 5.6 kg with pinkish legs, grey and white striped neck, and a red face patch. Wikipedia. It is the only species of crane to have pink legs and also unusually it is the female that initiates the mating displays. During unison calling she responds with two calls for every one from her mate.
Its diet consists mainly of insects, seeds, roots, plants and small animals.
The species is declining due to habitat loss from the spreading of agricultural land, over-hunting in some areas and plans for potential dams in China threaten the species even further.
It is evaluated as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
Taken on our trip to Pensthorpe Nature Reserve in Norfolk.
Taken with my Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5.6-6.3 Di VC USD A011 Lens and framed in Photoshop.
