Purnululu National Park is a national park in the north east of Western Australia. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Bungle Bungle Range, lying fully within the park, has elevations as high as 578 metres (1,896 ft) above sea level. It is famous for the sandstone domes, unusual and visually striking with their striping in alternating orange and grey bands. The banding of the domes is due to differences in clay content and porosity of the sandstone layers: the orange bands consist of oxidised iron compounds in layers that dry out too quickly for cyanobacteria to multiply; the grey bands are composed of cyanobacteria growing on the surface of layers of sandstone where moisture accumulates.
I took this shot (and many others) from a doorless helicopter flying over the ranges. With only a seat belt to keep me from falling to my death, this was in equal measure, an awesome sight and a challenging experience.
What a difference 30 minutes and 24 km makes, we arrived in Zutphen damp but drying out the sun actually tried to break through several times after leaving the car at a nearby parking lot exploring our way to the old town of this lovely historic Hanseatic town.
Zutphen has been inhabited for over 1700 years and was founded by the Franks during the time of the Roman Empire making it one of Holland’s oldest cities.
Being founders of the Hanseatic League the town has always been prosperous and despite its small size boasts over 450 national monuments thanks to its long wealthy history.
When you are slogging about dripping wet hunched over loaded down with camera gear in the pissing rain you just have to persevere and hope for a break in the weather or good spots that can shield you from the wet while shooting.
For most travel photographers its not like we will always have another opportunity to be back in the same direction so good wet weather gear and umbrellas are the order of the day when traveling in the fall most especially in the Netherlands.
Captured here is the pedestrian mall leading to the Tower of the Walburgis church which was at one time 113m tall but since 1600 reduced to a mere 76m though small in stature it is still a beauty and has been around since the 13th century ushering the locals to sermon.
I took this on September 19th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 1/8s, f/11 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO
Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress.
Are we spending too much time infighting politically and forgetting the real global danger to the entire world. Peace and harmony are the only solutions but in order to achieve them we must work endlessly to that goal.
Shouldn't our politicians, news organizations, technology empires and vast corporations get involved in protecting humanity and our environment?
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️

“Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.”
-Frank Lloyd Wright
What a difference a month can make, especially in Alaska! I was blessed to visit the region surrounding the city of Nome in both July of 2024 and August of 2025.
Six major differences were noted between these two trips.
This year:
The salmon run was all but over. Remnants from this year’s run were noticeable by both sight and smell. The cycle of the Alaskan salmon’s life was starting anew.
The muskox was in full rut. The females were a bit more concerned with my being there while the males couldn’t care any less. They had been anxiously waiting, fighting off other males for months for the right to reproduce. An old fat Italian guy with a clicking camera certainly wasn’t going to ruin his mood!
The weather was very different as I experienced frozen morning windshields and only one day above 50 degrees. When most all of your weather comes across Siberia and the Bering Sea, unpredictability is the norm.
Flocks had assembled and were much more noticeable. For most species, some ducks and loons excluded, where I found 2-3 last year, once found this year there may have been between 20-100. In 2024 I did not see a single owl in an area with easily multiple miles of visibility. This year they were seen on three different days in three different areas as they began to flock (Parliament) together to travel south for the winter.
The locals, mostly the native Inuit people were out in family units collecting berries. I was told that these berries would become a vital part of their subsistence living over the winter. Not just berries, but hunting season for the Inuit people had started. Last year I was blessed with both brown bear with cubs and moose. This year, the bear, moose and caribou had already moved out further into the valleys as far away from humans as possible. Sadly…airplanes and quad runners now make impossible for them to move far enough out to be hunted.
Lastly, the white winter plumage of the ptarmigan was in full display (as photographed here) as it creeps up from bottom to top. Hundreds of ptarmigans were seen on both trips. No white feathers were noted in 2024 just a month earlier. All seen this year openly displayed that (a personal favorite cowboy saying) “Winter is a coming” appearance.
Benoît est un adulte que j'accompagne en tant qu'éducateur depuis plus dix ans..c'est un homme lumineux..Merci a lui et à sa mère de me permettre de poster ce portrait dont je suis particulièrement fiert...
Benoît is the man... I host him since more than ten years in the adult handicap center I worked..A bright man...
Much visited by performers from the nearby Empire Theatre over many decades.
I took this from the roof of the multi storey car park serving Lime Street Station.
I need to go back and take a new shot showing the differences post development.

We all should know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the threads of the tapestry are equal in value no matter what the color. - Maya Angelou
We have become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams. - Jimmy Carter

Civilizations should be measured by the degree of diversity attained and the degree of unity retained. - W.H. Auden
If man is to survive, he will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life's exciting variety, not something to fear. -

The common raven or northern raven is a large all-black passerine bird. It is the most widely distributed of all corvids, found across the Northern Hemisphere. There are 11 accepted subspecies with little variation in appearance, although recent research has demonstrated significant genetic differences among populations from various regions.

Here we are at the top, looking back at the monument. The last time we were here was in December last year in the snow. What a difference a few months has made to the weather up here, it was much warmer. That said there was still a wind blowing from the south west, although it wasn’t cold, it was strong enough to create sea like waves on top of the cup of coffee we stopped for, sat on the rocks just to the left of the monument. Maybe next time we’re here it will be nice enough to bring a cold drink instead of a hot flask, one can hope.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

Spirobranchus giganteus is similar to most tube-building polychaetes. It has a tubular, segmented body of an approximate length of 3.8 cm (1.5 in) covered with chaetae, small appendages that aid the worm's mobility. Because it does not move outside its tube, this worm does not have any specialized appendages for movement or swimming.
The worms' most distinct features are two "crowns" shaped like Christmas trees. These are highly modified prostomial palps, which are specialized mouth appendages. Each spiral is composed of feather-like tentacles called radioles, which are heavily ciliated and cause any prey trapped in them to be transported to the worm's mouth. While they are primarily feeding structures, S. giganteus also uses its radioles for respiration; hence, the structures commonly are called "gills".
One major difference between Christmas tree worms and the closely related Sabellida fan worms is that the latter do not have any specialized body structures to plug their tube holes when they withdraw into them. S. giganteus, like other members of its family, possesses a modified radiole, usually called the operculum, that it uses to secure its hole when withdrawn into its tube.
As an annelid, S. giganteus possesses a complete digestive system and has a well-developed closed circulatory system. Like other annelids, these worms possess well-developed nervous systems with a central brain and many supporting ganglia, including pedal ganglia, unique to the Polychaeta. Like other polychaetes, S. giganteus excretes with fully developed nephridia. When they reproduce, they simply shed their gametes straight into the water where the eggs and spermatozoa become part of the zooplankton to be carried by the currents.
