I have little interest in 'Explore' and am often surprised when a pic seems to randomly take off and be included in that pool ..... this one just has been included, and I'm quite surprised that it has done so, with 221 views and 7 faves (at time of writing), while 2 pics over another photo in the same batch has 331 views and 18 faves ..... not that I would expect that one to make 'Explore' (nor particularly care), but why this one and not the one which is clearly much more popular? .... I already thought 'Explore' was pretty meaningless, but this instance emphasises that even more
This was another turn the truck around shot. Saw ripples in the vernal pool and had to take a peak. A Redshouldered Hawk drying off after a bath

Today we have been setting some natural history context for the story of "The First Tasmanians". This is a permanent exhibition at the QVMAG in Launceston. An exhibition curated by the museum and art gallery in conjunction with the Aboriginal community.
www.qvmag.tas.gov.au/Exhibitions/Permanent/The-First-Tasm...
Over the next two days we'll look at some of the specific cultural aspects.
The little machine pictured above allows the viewer to watch a simulation of how the landscape of Tasmania has changed over the last 50,000 years - not long before the first people arrived. This is deep time, prehistory, before we even begin to have oral history.

Discovering an unexpected reminder that there is always beauty, despite the coldness or life’s difficulties, spring can blossom in your heart. A reminder we have to share with others and remind ourselves.
Gigantic Rio Tinto -- Kennecott open pit copper mine. To see more of this huge mine check out the album here: www.flickr.com/photos/19779889@N00/albums/72157627780868214
About the Mine
• Kennecott's Bingham Canyon Mine has produced more copper than any mine in history - about 18.7 million tons.
• The mine is 2-3/4 miles across at the top and 3/4 of a mile deep. You could stack two Sears Towers (now known as the Willis Building) on top of each other and still not reach the top of the mine.
• If you stretched out all the roads in the open pit mine, you'd have 500 miles of roadway - enough to reach from Salt Lake City to Denver.
• You could lay the soccer field at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah end to end more than 38 times across the top of the Bingham Canyon Mine before it would reach both sides.
• The elevation of the Bingham Canyon Mine drops from 8,040 feet above sea level to 4,390 feet above sea level. The Visitors Center is located at 6,440 feet above sea level.
About the Equipment
• The giant electric shovels in the mine can scoop up as much as 98 tons in a single bite -- about the weight of 50 cars.
• The newest electric shovels each cost more than $20 million and weigh 3.2 million pounds.
• The trucks that haul the ore are larger than many houses and weigh more than a jumbo jet. They stand over 23 feet tall and can carry from 255 to 360 tons of rock.
• The truck driver rides about 18 feet above the ground -- nearly two stories high.
• Each tire on these big trucks costs from $18,000 to $26,000 and lasts just 9 months.
• The crusher in the pit takes in about 140,000 tons of ore every day and grinds it into chunks smaller than the size of a basketball.
• At 1,215 feet tall, the Kennecott smokestack is the highest structure in Utah.

When the snow is so deep, pointing it down becomes the only way to stay afloat. A true backcountry skier's dream.
The city is alive! Photoleap was used to create this image. The sunken car was an art installation in this Mexican plaza.
I'm having trouble coming up with new titles for powder photos. This was last Saturday. It was the scariest drive up the canyon I've ever had, temps were in the single digits and the skiing was awesome. You gotta pay to play.
I was under impression that this summer will be the last summer for my Canon 30 D and thay I will concetrate more on 40 D and 5D Mk II but I realised that I miss IR photography so this camera is my work horse( for IR shots only ) .From now on, it will be used during summer.
Shot taken at Parramatta Park and I hope you enjoy this sight...

This was an experiment and I liked how it turned out.. The White Rosebud from across the street was processed in the on-line program called Deep Dream Generator, then I used one of my JixiPix plugins 'Impresso Pro' to finish it off...
