A large thermal hotel which was mostly in great condition. We had to chase out several kids who were in the middle of smashing one of the dining halls up.

Before knowing the weather condition of the Himalayan region we should understand its geography. The Himalayan region covers an area of 2,250 km with an average width of 200 km.
The forest belt of the Himalayan region consists of Oak, Rhododendron, Birch, Pine, Deodar, and Fir. And the monsoon season in this region lasts for mid June till the end of September. The Himalayas influences the meteorological conditions in the Indian subcontinent to the south and in the Central Asian highlands to the north to a great extent. It acts a climatic divider circulating the air and water system to a great extent. Because of its altitude and location it blocks the passage of the cold winds coming from the north to the Indian sub continent thereby making India's climate much more moderate. It also influences the rainfall pattern in India. The combined effect of rainfall, latitude and altitude largely influences the forests belts in the Himalayan region. The rainfall is mostly recorded during the monsoon time of June to September but it decreases as you travel from east to west. The snow-capped ranges of the Himalayas stretch 2, 250 km from the Namcha Barwa to Nanga Parbat on the Indus. The range extends from east to west up to central-Nepal and then takes a southeast to northwest direction.

Pavlov
Dans sa célèbre expérience, Pavlov sonnait une cloche chaque fois qu’il servait de la nourriture à un chien. Puis un jour, Pavlov sonna la cloche mais ne servit aucune nourriture au chien : celui-ci saliva quand même.
... only the macro-lens can see those little scratches on the legs. One of my first toys ever. Even before Barbie!

Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord --Importance of memory--
Landschaftspark is a public park located in Duisburg-Meiderich, Germany. It was designed in 1991 by Latz + Partner (Peter Latz), with the intention that it work to heal and understand the industrial past, rather than trying to reject it. The park closely associates itself with the past use of the site: a coal and steel production plant (abandoned in 1985, leaving the area significantly polluted) and the agricultural land it had been prior to the mid 19th century
Conception and creation
In 1991, a co-operative-concurrent planning procedure with five international planning teams was held to design the park. Peter Latz’s design was significant, as it attempted to preserve as much of the existing site as possible. Unlike his competitors, Latz recognized the value of the site’s current condition. He allowed the polluted soils to remain in place and be remediated through phytoremediation, and sequestered soils with high toxicity in the existing bunkers. He also found new uses for many of the old structures, and turned the former sewage canal into a method of cleansing the site.
Design
The park is divided into different areas, whose borders were carefully developed by looking at existing conditions (such as how the site had been divided by existing roads and railways, what types of plants had begun to grow in each area, etc.). This piecemeal pattern was then woven together by a series of walkways and waterways, which were placed according to the old railway and sewer systems. While each piece retains its character, it also creates a dialogue with the site surrounding it. Within the main complex, Latz emphasized specific programmatic elements: the concrete bunkers create a space for a series of intimate gardens, old gas tanks have become pools for scuba divers, concrete walls are used by rock climbers, and one of the most central places of the factory, the middle of the former steel mill, has been made into piazza. Each of these spaces uses elements to allow for a specific reading of time.
The site was designed with the idea that a grandfather, who might have worked at the plant, could walk with his grandchildren, explaining what he used to do and what the machinery had been used for. At Landschaftspark, memory was central to the design. Various authors have addressed the ways in which memory can inform the visitor of a site, a concept that became prevalent during Postmodernism.

‘Mint’ in color, that is! It wasn’t in bad condition for 56 years of age when the photo was taken. I believe it is a 1960 model. Its period styling has gained a certain coolness over the years, something it probably didn’t readily enjoy for the first half of its life!

"I will get back into the car under one condition: you allow me to listen to my music, meaning the one song I listen to, however long or however many times I feel like. After that you can have a turn and can listen to songs and or music on my short approved list."
This photo is a tribute to those people who volunteer their time to restore and maintain these old steam locomotives in working condition. In this photo, two men are performing minor maintenance tasks while waiting the two hours or more that it takes to fire this engine up. This engine runs a tourist loop at New Hope Pa. and was out of service in 2014. Hopefully it will be back this year. Parts have to be hand made and there are not many people that know how to repair or operate them anymore.
Astana - Capital City of Kazakhstan
The city was renamed into Nursultan in honor of the former President Nursultan Nasarbajew.
The weather condition looked very promising, clear skies and low wind, and the mornig had all that just not at the same time. I wanted the Alpine glow on Pen Yr Ole Wen and the reflection. Alas it was one or the other. Once the light started to hit the mountain the wind had picked up and distroyed the reflection. Anyway I'm happy with this blue hour picture.
Supermarine Spitfire Mark. I QV- N3200 (G-CFGJ) carries out a display at Old Warden during the Season Premier and 100 Years of the RAF Airshow.
N3200 was shot down over occupied France on 26th May 1940, during Operation Dynamo and the rescue of British Forces from Dunkirk, crash landing on Sangatte beach.
The aircraft was recovered in 1986, after being submerged for 45 years, after strong currents finally revealed it.
The Spitfire was restored to flying condition and returned to the air in 2014, before it was donated to the Imperial War Museum in 2015.
Some call the genre of photography I am involved with "street photography" because much of it occurs on streets, and other public places. A more accurate name for my genre of photography would be "life as it happens", or the "human condition".
Meeting a stranger is something I usually enjoy immensely and having the opportunity to make a photograph of them is certainly a privilege. Sometimes I wind up in discussions that last a while and sometimes we only exchange a word or two. And at times there are no words spoken -- only the eyes and expression do the talking. As I carry my camera -- this wonderful, tiny time machine -- I am always trying to be an ambassador of hope, joy, opportunity, kindness, acceptance, and understanding. I have come to realize that every human being, despite their lot in life -- whether they are rich or poor, educated or uneducated, old or young, healthy or sick, famous or unknown -- all of them, all of us, need a moment of validation that verifies in our souls we are someone, and we are on this planet for a reason. More important than these moments in time I am freezing with this tiny time machine I carry around with me, are the simple validations, an exchange of hope, a reason to live, that I can give away freely with no fear of running out of inventory. And whenever I share a gift of hope with someone, I find a deposit has been made in my account, in my soul, that is better than in my bank account. For this is the reason we all exist on this planet.
