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.

The cloister
Due to the nature of the Mont Saint Michel and the way that the abbey has needed to be constructed, the cloister is on top of the rest of the abbey buildings and not at the centre of the complex. Despite this, the cloister has maintained the form and functions of other cloisters found in all other monasteries with just a few subtle differences which set it apart, turning it into a symbolic representation of an ideal monastic life. Its function was purely spiritual: to bring the monks to meditate.
Three arches of the cloister are opened to the sea or to the outside. Those openings were the entryway to the chapter house that was never built. The columns, arranged in quincunx, were originally made of limestone from England but were later restored using puddingstone from Lucerne.
The cloister has in the middle a medieval garden recreated in 1966 by brother Bruno de Senneville, a Benedict monk. The center is made of box tree surrounded by 13 Damascus roses. The squares of medicinal plants, aromatic herbs and flowers symbolize the daily needs of Middle age monks. In the middle of the box trees were monsters to remind that in the middle of any marvel evil could still be there.

Gluggafoss aka Merkjafoss in the South of Iceland and close to Eyjafjallajoekull. It comes thundering down through a cleft onto a large rockpool and then continues after another small fall as river Merkja which meanders through the nearby meadows. At difference to the large and well-known waterfalls which all featured rows of rental cars queuing up, these smaller falls often offer solitude and precious moments, whether you are into photography or not.
Oversize load transport equipment parked at the "Olympia-Schiessanlange" in Garching. "Action" shots to follow, stay tuned...
The thing is called a "Kesselbrücke", works basically like a Schnabel car on a railway, the main difference is that the load is vertically adjustable to pass over or under obstacles. Another difference - the load is placed on a dedicated platform between the two halves of the vehicle, therefore the load does not need to have the mechanical stiffness to bear its own weight (loads on Schnabel cars must be stiff).
Total length is 96 m, it has total 34 axles (count them if you wish...).
The load is a 210 t heavy gas turbine for the Heizkraftwerk Süd power station in the south of Munich.

”When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, anything your heart desires, will come to you ”. 👱♀️🎧🎶 When You Wish Upon a Star ( from the movie Pinocchio, Cliff Edwards ). The image shows part of an icy candle lantern. When we have a really hard frost I make these lanterns as garden decorations in the winter. I freeze also flowers like tulips inside the lantern, as it is here.

CN Z122 drops downgrade towards Bayview Junction amid one of the best showings of colour I have seen in a long time.
Winters have mostly been bleak and the days are almost always cloudy and boring so when a day with sunshine emerges I also emerge.
The difference a little bit of sunshine makes is unbelievable. It's like a flower was given sunlight and it just blooms.
Sunny days are the best and when you combine that with the beauty of winter it's like standing in the middle of a work of art.
This photo was taken on the lake Näsijärvi in Tampere. The ice is strong enough to support a van, so to me it's a great opportunity to take photos in an unusual location.

As 2022 draws to a close, I am looking forward to turning the page on this year, which has been a difficult one for me, and starting the new chapter that is 2023.
There are a few lines from a Josh Groban song called "Thankful", that I have always loved:
Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each others' light
For me, Flickr has become a beautiful place to find that light and that connection, especially in a world that seems to grow increasingly dark and troubled. So I want to share a deep and sincere Thank You to all my Flickr friends and contacts for the light you give and all the ways in which you uplift my spirit. Thank you for sharing your talents and creativity which both awe and inspire me, for sharing your beautiful places, special moments, and great adventures, for your thoughtful and generous support of my photography and writing, and most of all for your personal kindness, caring, and humanity. I truly enjoy all of the conversations, comments, and connection with each of you, and am incredibly thankful for your encouragement and good wishes through some of the tough times this year.
I am profoundly grateful to have met such wonderful people here on Flickr. Because in the words of the incomparable Maya Angelou in the poem below,
"Nobody, but nobody, Can make it out here alone.
I wish each of you health, happiness, and beautiful light (both in photography and life) in the new year ahead!
Alone
by Maya Angelou
Lying, thinking
Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
And bread loaf is not stone
I came up with one thing
And I don't believe I'm wrong
That nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.
Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.
There are some millionaires
With money they can't use
Their wives run round like banshees
Their children sing the blues
They've got expensive doctors
To cure their hearts of stone.
But nobody
No, nobody
Can make it out here alone.
Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.
Now if you listen closely
I'll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
'Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.
Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.
Not an original title; I felt delighted just now to see that Evelin had titled today "crabby" with her beautiful photo! And these are NOT crabapples, but tiny pyracantha-like or Cotoneaster berries. But Happy Cotoneaster Monday lacks an emotional connection for me.
And yes, that yellow leaf catches the eye as any brightness would, and perhaps this would look better cropped without that ghost berry. But in one hundred years, what the heck difference will it make? Or ten years. Climate change and all that.
NB. Seems Evelin removed her photo and I’ve had to remove the link.
When I came upon this Cormorant gazing out over the water at a local lake, I wondered if it was lonely or just liked hanging-out alone. I’ve found there is a difference.

If this garage was in a Jewish neigbourhood 'Ah Wai' would be out of business as 'Oy Vey' is a cry indicating dismay, disappointment or grief. I was also intrigued by the samurai painted on the door for protection.

Piz Bernina and the Morteratsch Glacier (romansh: Vadret da Morteratsch). Switzerland. No. 8271a..
"The Morteratsch Glacier (romansh: Vadret da Morteratsch) is the largest glacier by area in the Bernina Range of the Bündner Alps in Switzerland.
It is, just after the Pasterze Glacier and Gepatschferner, the third largest and by volume (1.2 km3) the most massive glacier in the eastern alps. The Morteratsch Glacier is a typical valley glacier with a pronounced ice front. The accumulation zone lies between the peaks of Piz Morteratsch, Piz Bernina, Crast' Agüzza, Piz Argient, Piz Zupò and Bellavista. From Piz Argient to the ice front in the Val Morteratsch, its horizontal extent is about ~7 km (4.3 mi), with an altitude difference of up to 2,000 m (6,600 ft). Together with the Pers Glacier, originating at Piz Palü, which joins the Morteratsch just below the rock formation Isla Persa ("Lost Isle"), it covers an area of about 16 km2 (6.2 sq mi). The volume of the ice is estimated to be about 1.2 km3. The Morteratsch Glacier drains through Inn River and Danube into the Black Sea.
In spring, depending on the snow conditions, a 10-km-long ski-run accessible to skilled skiers is marked on the glacier. It leads from the Diavolezza aerial tramway terminus to the Morteratsch inn and has an altitude difference of 1,100 m (3,600 ft). The RhB Station Morteratsch used to be situated directly at the ice front of the glacier. The ice front has receded over 1,800 m (5,900 ft) in the meantime, and cannot be seen from the station today.
Yearly length change measurements have been recorded since 1878. For the period to 1998, the overall retreat was over 1.8 km (1.1 mi) with a mean annual retreat rate of approximately 17.2 m (56 ft) per year. This long-term average has markedly increased in recent years, receding 30 m (98 ft) per year from 1999–2005. Substantial retreat was ongoing through 2006 as well.[1]
During the time that measurements have been taken, the glacier has advanced a few meters in only four years. Since the large glaciers react slowly to short-term climate changes, these advances cannot be accounted for by increased precipitation in the accumulation zone. On the high moraines to the left and right of the ice front, which are still nearly free of overgrowth, the enormous quantities of ice which were still being pushed down here at the end of the "Little Ice Age" in the middle of the 19th century can be seen.
Der Morteratschgletscher (rätoromanisch Glatscher dal Morteratsch oder Vadret da Morteratsch) ist ein Alpen-Gletscher in der Berninagruppe im Kanton Graubünden in der Schweiz. Zusammen mit dem Persgletscher ist er mit einem Volumen von rund 1,2 Kubikkilometern der volumenstärkste Gletscher der Ostalpen. Seit Beginn der systematischen Beobachtungen im Jahr 1878 hat der Gletscher 2,2 Kilometer an Länge eingebüsst, er ist heute noch rund 6,4 Kilometer lang und damit der drittlängste Gletscher der Ostalpen, nach Pasterze und Gepatschferner in den österreichischen Alpen.
Die beim Gletscherrückgang im Gletschervorfeld hinterlassenen Spuren gelten als typisch für die Alpen. Ein Gletscherlehrpfad erklärt an 20 Stationen Glaziologie, Geomorphologie und Vegetation. Entlang dieses Wanderweges stehen darüber hinaus Schilder zur Dokumentation des Gletscherrückgangs. Im Frühjahr führt eine Skiroute von der Diavolezza über den Gletscher.
Le glacier Morteratsch (en romanche : Vadret da Morteratsch) est le plus grand glacier de la chaîne de la Bernina. Il se situe dans le canton des Grisons en haute-Engadine.
Il a une longueur maximale de 7 km avec un dénivelé de 2 000 m et se termine au plus haut sur le Punta Perrucchetti à 4 020 m. Il couvre avec le glacier Pers environ 16 km2.
Entre 1878 et 1998, le glacier a reculé de 1,8 km avec une moyenne annuelle d'environ 17,2 mètres. Le recul s'est accéléré ces dernières années avec une moyenne de 30 mètres par an de 1999-2005.
À la confluence avec le glacier Pers, le glacier Morteratsch se comporte comme un barrage naturel bloquant les eaux de ruissellement et à l'origine d'un petit lac."

What a difference it makes when the rain stops. Had a fantastic weekend out locally with the camera and found this new forest pony as the sun came up.

Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam Zuid, Rijnhaven, Terraforming, Sand dispenser (slightly cut from all sides)
During high tide, the results of the filling of the Rijnhaven get somewhat camouflaged. In this part of Rotterdam, the difference between high and low tide is some 1,5 m. On the left (bottom) are the New Luxor theatre's characteristic protruding parking deck and InHolland (top). On the right is Bayhouse.
Shot from the 20th floor of 'De Rotterdam'.
As I wrote earlier, Rijnhaven is being redeveloped. This harbour was created in 1895 to offer shelter for Rhine vessels ('rijnaken'), which could not operate during the winter due to the freezing of the rivers.
After the creation of the harbour, the transit freight traffic to Rotterdam continued to increase, and the new Rijnhaven was made suitable for large sea-going vessels by deepening it. As planned, the Rijnhaven became an essential port for the transhipment of bulk goods 'on stream' - the sea-going vessels were moored on buoys, separate from the quay, and their cargo was directly moved to rhine ships. In de 70/80s of the last century, the Rijnhaven lost its transhipment function and was brought back to its old function. In 2015, the rhine ship berths were moved to, among others, the Maashaven. Enabling the redevelopment of the old harbour.
It will be partly (30%) filled up (pure terraforming) to enable the realization of, amongst others, an office/apartment building strip with up to 200m high edifices, called the 'Skyline Posthumalaan' with an adjacent park and city beach. And there will be the floating Rijnhavenpark, too.
This is number 10 of Rijnhaven - the redevelopment, 348 of Rotterdam harbour and industry and 43 of De Rotterdam.

*************************************
Comparing AI-generated images with real photographs can be quite fascinating. Here are a few aspects to consider:
Realism
Photographs: Real photos capture the world as it is, with all its imperfections, nuances, and natural lighting.
AI Images: These can be incredibly realistic, but they may sometimes lack the subtle imperfections and natural lighting that real photos have.
Creativity
AI Images: AI can generate highly creative and imaginative visuals that don't exist in reality, which is great for artistic and conceptual purposes.
Photographs: Limited to what can be physically captured by the camera in the real world.
Detail
Photographs: Offer natural and intricate details that are true to life.
AI Images: Can be detailed as well, but sometimes the details may look artificial or too perfect.
Use Cases
Photographs: Best for documentation, realism, and capturing specific moments.
AI Images: Ideal for creative projects, concepts, and situations where real photos may not be possible or practical.
While AI-generated images can be impressive and useful in many contexts, they still can’t fully replicate the authenticity and natural beauty of real photographs. Have you tried using AI to create images before, or are you considering it? I know where my allegiances lie... its real photography and Flickr has a huge example of each
