Flocks of Snow Geese take off in the early morning light from the Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge as they move from ponds where they rest at night to the nearby fields to feed.
An intensive farming program at the refuge provides nutritious forage for more than 30,000 wintering geese.
Its interesting that the ponds the geese overnight in are only 6 inches to a foot deep but Snow geese overnight at the ponds in the Salton Sea because these calm, shallow waters provide a safe resting place at night, protecting them from predators like coyotes while allowing them to easily access food sources during the day.
Its really a sight to see these large flocks of birds taking off and landing at once.
With their lack of creativity, BNSF never seems to name control points after towns or local landmarks. Thus, the double cross-over, installed in Stockholm, Wisconsin back in 2015, follows the cookie-cutter routine and is simply called "CP 3725". An eastbound manifest, respecting the quiet zone and silently passes through town on a quaint Saturday morning.
Viaggio in Giappone giorno 11/17
Oggi abbiamo salutato Shirakawa-go le Alpi Giapponesi e ci siamo mossi verso la costa est, verso la città di Kanazawa dove siamo arrivati nel primo pomeriggio.
Kanazawa è una città moderna, in pieno sviluppo urbanistico con modernissimi quartieri e con la chiara intenzione di raggiungere Kyoto come città turistica, intenzione resa possibile dall'a
pertura recente della linea alta velocità Shinkansen che la collega direttamente a Tokyo.
Voglio però raccontare l'incidente successo ieri pomeriggio a Shirakawa-go. Eravamo già nel Ryokan dove abbiamo dormito e ad un certo punto abbiamo sentito suonare a tutto volume le sirene anticendio. Al che tutti gli abitanti del villaggio sono usciti dalle case, fatte di legno e paglia facilmente incendiabile e hanno iniziato a bagnare con degli idranti i tetti di paglia.. Successivamente abbiamo visto che una delle case più piccole dall'altra parte del fiume aveva preso fuoco e che diverse squadre di pompieri erano già sul posto e in maniera efficiente stavano domando l'incendio contenendolo a quella casa. Evidentemente il rischio incendi è così elevato che gli abitanti hanno adottato un rigido protocollo di difesa con gli idranti con lo scopo di impedire che un eventuale fuoco si propaghi alle altre case.
È stato un evento a cui non avremmo voluto assistere ovviamente, perché fa male al cuore vedere una di quelle magnifiche case distrutta dal fuoco, ma è stato anche incredibile vedere tutte le case coperte da questi getti d'acqua e ammirare il coraggio, l'efficienza e la bravura dei pompieri giapponesi in azione
Control room of a 1950s power plant. Once considered a true feat of engineering, this facility was among the most advanced in the world at the time of its operation.
Photographed during an intense overnight visit several years ago.
DIY signs offering services abound in New York, but this is one of the best examples of the genre I have run across. Simple and clear, centered, stock image, Times New Roman — not a big deal, right? But the sign's author had the knowledge or the eye, or both, to space the caps and also to space the solidus (forward slash). I prefer my slashes spaced, but I rarely do it in emails or online because it makes me feel self-conscious: no one does it. One might call it a peer pressure of the close-set solidus.

These images were captured in an abandoned power plant in Italy. There is not much left of the plant which once generated up to 80 megawatts. However, the control room and a cooling tower are still in place.

An Eastern Phoebe from a fence post at Mill Pond. Not a rare sight there at all but I liked the green background surrounding him. This one stopped its exuberant tail pumping just long enough for me to grab a shot. Great birds to have around for helping to control insect pests.

Art Deco Battersea Power Station Control Room A
Third time lucky with this one, after not reaching this control room on the last visit, I couldnt give up. It was a god awful climb to be endured to get into this one, up and into instead of a staircase that has been locked.
My heart raced as we climbed up, but once inside it was all worth it, if not a bit on edge the whole time after knowing going back down would probably be more terrifying.

An American white ibis was heading home for the night as smoke from a controlled burn left stripes across the setting sun.
Shooting at f/16 was a big mistake but I literally grabbed the camera from the car and ran without checking settings. My rule, which I violated yet again, is to leave cameras on f/8 or thereabouts.

Les gavines son aus de gran envergadura i força. Durant l’any deambulen per les zones costaneres, tot i que cada cop s’endinsen més a llocs d’interior.
Son aus que durant l’època de cria, dipositen els ous sobre el terreny nu. Tot just quatre plomes formen la conca a on dipositaran la posta.
Defensen el seu niu i la posterior pollada amb fermesa, tornant-se agressives amb qualsevol que s’acosti, fins i tot humans.
El control passa per la localització i retirada de nius. Tanmateix i de forma preventiva, es poden realitzar vols amb rapinyaires, per tal d’evitar que prenguin la zona per a nidificar.

The gulls are birds of great magnitude and strength. During the year, they wander around the coastal areas, although more and more are flooded into places of interior.
They are birds that during the breeding season lay their eggs on the naked ground. Just four feathers form the basin where they will deposit the post.
Defend their nest and the back with firmness, becoming aggressive with anyone who comes up, even humans.
The control goes through the location and removal of nests. However, precautionary measures can be made with birds of prey, so as to prevent them from taking the area to nest.

This guys are in charge to control motos crossing the barangays (districts) in PH. After they controlled me they noted that I had my camera and asked me to picture them :) funny moment !
Mercury Control Center with Mercury-Atlas 6 rocket, Friendship7 space capsule with John Glenn minifigure - all made with LEGO elements. Credit to Lando for the art design and the entire Brickmania team for producing my design.

The capsule is 1/35th scale and fits the minifigure which is the same scale. The rocket is 1/110th scale which is the same scale as LEGO's Saturn V rocket.
This rocket sits on a launch pad which will begin to launch when the knob is turned on the right side.
The Kathrine Johnson minifigure holds a printed "Go/No-Go code. All elements are custom printed. No stickers here!
I'm very happy with the way this turned out. What do you think?
It is only in the past couple of years that the control room at the Ardnacrusha hydroelectric power station has been taken out of use. Generation is now controlled remotely, but the Siemens built 1929 vintage equipment remains in situ.
Didn't go out this morning since the weather forecast didn't look amazing and I was knackered, so I've got a chance to process some of the holiday snaps from Tenerife.
This shot was an attempt to capture the feel of the sunsets, with the incredible strength of the direct sun without any cloud to filter it. Obviously, there was no combination of filters that would hold back the brightness and I decided HDR would just look un-natural, so I allowed the sky to blow out in order to give that sun-baked feel.
The most impressive thing was that the Sigma 17-70 didn't give any flare at all, despite being pointed almost directly into the setting sun.
