Mann Island on Liverpools waterfront, much debated with respect to the modern architecture, something which has grown on me over the years, now part of the Liverpool furniture.
Gornergratbahn, Zermatt.
The Gornergratbahn (GGB) is a 9 km long 1,000 mm gauge mountain rack railway, with Abt rack system. It leads from Zermatt, Switzerland (1,604 m/5,262 ft), up to the Gornergrat (3,089 m/10,135 ft).
# On EXPLORE #54. (2009.09.15)
Our destination for the day was the peak Picws Du\Bannau Sir Gaer which is the middle one on the right. It is the second highest peak of the Carmarthen Fans at 749m.
Still some way to hike.
It overlooks the beautiful lake, Llyn y Fan Fach.
If everything goes to plan this is where my ashes will be dumped, or at least, that's what I have requested.
So, as long as they can find one family member willing to drive down some of the narrowest lanes anywhere and then hike up here, it will be 'my' final destination :-)
It's not the best view in the world but it has fond memories.

Rothenburg is a town in the Franconia region of Bavaria, Germany. It is well known for its well-preserved medieval old town. It is a destination for tourists from around the world and is part of the popular Romantic Road through southern Germany.
I've posted a couple of pictures of my stay at Zimanga private game reserve before, but there are still many left. Ones that I personally really like.
A stay in the overnight hide is spectacular. Maybe not even for the sole purpose of photography (although every peace of equipment we had was set and ready to go; as were our nerves.. :-)) but maybe even more for the sheer experience.
Imagine spending the night underground. Your vision is narrow and more and more you rely on sound. Your ears pick up the tiniest of noises. You just know that there are elephants around you: branches breaking, chewing molars, rumbling stomachs, the occasional trumpeting call, but you can't see them.....
You wait and wait ... for hours. You just can't go to sleep because any moment now they can come into view..
And than there is that one magical moment....
He didn't stop, but just ran on towards something very interesting out of our viewing range. But just there and than, your heart skips a beat...

I know not
veils of secrecy obscure the future.
But for sure , one day my heart
will cease to beat and then.... "

I'm very glad to have received several Honorable Mentions and one 3rd Place in Monochrome Awards 2016. This one got HM under People category.
You almost stumble upon Lochan a Choire before you see it, appearing only at the very end of the hike in. We had to wait a few minutes for a group of (mad!) wild swimmers to finish their dip but, despite a lack of light on the mountain, it was definitely worth all the effort to reach here.
This morning's plan was to sail down Røde Fjord marvelling at the red mountains and the icebergs. Thank you all for your views, comments and faves!

Drove back to Canada today. I'd hoped to see something on the side of the road that caught my eye, but everything I noticed was in an area that wouldn't have been safe to pull over. So when I saw this pull-in at the edge of the 1000 Island Parkway I jumped at the chance.
I had to climb down a steep and muddy hill to get this, so I'm glad it turned out. Anyone who knows me can tell you I'm very bad at inclines... even more so when there's mud involved!
There was only one more place I would have pulled over, but by the time I noticed it I was past it and couldn't pull in. Disappointing, it would have been a good shot.
Oh well, got a photo done and made it back to Ottawa with a little day light to spare! Not a bad deal!
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Recently, I have been listening non-stop to Miley Cyrus’s The Climb. Maybe because I’ve been feeling shitty for the past week or so, I can relate to the song very well. But it’s not like I’m going through something challenging or whatnot, I just feel lousy. Why so? Midlife crisis? Btw, I just turned 27 today …

"The Climb by Miley Cyrus"
I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high
There’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna want to make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you gonna have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb
The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m gonna remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on,
Cause there’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna want to make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you gonna have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby…
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith
