There 's nothing like cool temperatures and fresh air to raise the spirits. during my forays to the Alabama Hills the temperature can get up into the 100's and when they do, this is where I seek refuge. At around 9000 ft in elevation the difference in temperature is about 15 degrees and there nothing better the a fine mist that floats away from the falls right onto your weary soul.

Auch wenn Zebras auf den ersten Blick gleich aussehen, sieht man gerade beim Kopf bei genauerem Hinsehen feine Unterschiede in den Steifen.
Trilogy
Even if zebras look the same at first glance, on closer inspection you can see subtle differences in the stiffs, especially in the head.

The difference between a "Burg" and a "Schloss" (castle) is that a Burg is more like a fortress, built for protection from the enemies, and a Schloss was for the nobility to reside in, and very lavishly decorated.
Over time, some of the Burgs were also turned into castles.
Burg Eltz is somewhat unusual, in that it's been in the same family that had it built over 850 years ago, and Count and Countess Eltz still live there today.

Titre : "Différence sociale..."
Lors de ma dernière visite en 2012 à "Paname", je me suis longuement promené à la "Défense" dès 6 heures du matin.
Et oui, cela m'arrive d'aller dans le "Nord" !!!
Alors que je trainais mes yeux un peu partout, admirant, observant, je vis ce balayeur qui méthodiquement nettoyait les mégots, marche par marche en partant du haut.
Mais je vis aussi, ce cadre "dynamique" monter en courant ou presque, les nombreuses marches du parvis de l'Arche pour ne pas arriver en retard au taff.
Je vis là une occasion rare, de faire un cliché ou deux de cet aspect de notre société.
L'un monte vers son avenir "brillant"...
L'autre descend vers un avenir "incertain"...
A l'heure du Covid, notre société actuelle est pleine de paradoxes et la société "moyenne" à laquelle beaucoup appartienne tant de plus en plus à disparaitre.
Les pauvres sont de plus en plus pauvres et les riches, sont aussi de plus en plus riches.
Mais ne faut il pas de tout... Pour faire un Monde ???

Kinderdijk lies in the Alblasserwaard, at the confluence of the Lek and Noord rivers. In Alblasserwaard, problems with water became more and more apparent in the 13th century. Large canals, called "weteringen", were dug to get rid of the excess water in the polders. However, the drained soil started setting, while the level of the river rose due to the river's sand deposits. Most of the current mills were built in 1738 and 1740 (see below).
After a few centuries, an additional way to keep the polders dry was required. It was decided to build a series of windmills, with a limited capacity to bridge water level differences, but just able to pump water into a reservoir at an intermediate level between the soil in the polder and the river; the reservoir could be let out into the river through locks whenever the river level was low enough; the river level has both seasonal and tidal variations. Although some of the windmills are still used, the main water works are provided by two diesel pumping stations near one of the entrances of the windmills site.
Yellowhammer - Emberiza Citrinella
The yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) is a passerine bird in the bunting family that is native to Eurasia and has been introduced to New Zealand and Australia. Most European birds remain in the breeding range year-round, but the eastern subspecies is partially migratory, with much of the population wintering further south. The male yellowhammer has a bright yellow head, streaked brown back, chestnut rump and yellow underparts. Other plumages are duller versions of the same pattern. The yellowhammer is common in open areas with some shrubs or trees, and forms small flocks in winter. Its song has a rhythm like "A little bit of bread and no cheese". The song is very similar to that of its closest relative, the pine bunting, with which it interbreeds.
Yellowhammer males learn their songs from their fathers, and over the course of time regional dialects have developed, with minor differences to the conclusion of the basic song; all are mutually recognised by birds from different areas. Each male has an individual repertoire of song variants within its regional dialect; females tend to mate with males that share their dialect, and prefer those with the largest repertoires.
The pine bunting and yellowhammer are so closely related that each responds to the other's song. The male yellowhammer's song is more attractive to females, and is one reason for the dominance of that species where the ranges overlap.
Yellowhammers of the British and Irish race, E. c. caliginosa were introduced to New Zealand by local acclimatisation societies in 1862, and soon spread over the main islands. They sometimes visit New Zealand's subantarctic islands, although rarely staying to breed, and have reached Australia's Lord Howe Island on a number of occasions. At the beginning of the 20th century, this bunting was seen as a serious agricultural pest in its adopted country.
Populations of yellowhammer have also been introduced to the Falkland Islands, and South Africa.
The yellowhammer is a bird of dry open country, preferably with a range of vegetation types and some trees from which to sing. It is absent from urban areas, forests and wetlands. Probably originally found at forest edges and large clearing, it has benefited from traditional agriculture, which created extensive open areas with hedges and clumps of trees.
Populations have declined in recent decades in western Europe, including the British Isles, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria and Italy. The yellowhammer is a red-list (severely declining) species in Ireland and the UK In eastern Europe, numbers appear to be stable, although the trend in Russia is unknown. Changes to agricultural practices are thought to be responsible for reduced breeding densities. The introduced population in New Zealand has been very successful, with breeding densities much higher than in the UK.

Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.

What is the difference between "I like you" and "I love you"?
Buddha replies: when you like a flower, you take it. When you love a flower you water it all day.

Im Spätherbst fuhr ich bereits schon einmal diesen Weg durch Thüringen. Es war damals ein trüber Morgen. Heute war ich kurz vor dem Sonnenuntergang unterwegs...
Überwältigt vom Unterschied, den lediglich ein paar Sonnenstrahlen und ein imposanter Himmel machen können, muss ich euch hier noch mal beide Bilder zeigen!
…One for Sliders Sunday - besides the obvious B&W -V- Colour can you see some magic sliding gone on to make them nearer to the Olympic rings - no photoshop only Lightroom and no washers were mutilated in the process! See 1st comment box for other shot - original one from last weeks Macro Monday. Happy Sliders Sunday, Alan:-) HSS…..

One image was taken last night at 10 PM. The other image was taken at 8 AM this morning. Do you see the one difference? Poor Pumpkin! 😂
The difference between the two is startling when they're close together. The Great Egret towers over the Snowy Egret! Lovely birds that look so much alike from a distance but are so startlingly different when seen together.
Hong Kong Disneyland.
I got so much inspirations when I started to capture the bubbles.
Timing, was out of my control.
I started to realize that,
I cannot control all the things with the same method,
I cannot expect all the outcomes with the same way.
This was the most wonderful inspiration I get from Disneyland@
The Eurasian sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus), also known as the northern sparrowhawk or simply the sparrowhawk, is a small bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. Adult male Eurasian sparrowhawks have bluish grey upperparts and orange-barred underparts; females and juveniles are brown above with brown barring below. The female is up to 25% larger than the male – one of the greatest size differences between the sexes in any bird species. Though it is a predator which specialises in catching woodland birds, the Eurasian sparrowhawk can be found in any habitat and often hunts garden birds in towns and cities. Males tend to take smaller birds, including tits, finches, and sparrows; females catch primarily thrushes and starlings, but are capable of killing birds weighing 500 g (18 oz) or more.
