no this is not the complete Maximilian von Montegla, nor it's himself, This is just a very small part of his colossal statue standing at the Promenadenplatz in Munich. This is the only piece of art, there are at least five of them. The most curios one, the di-Lasso-statue dar, or as it called in Munich the Michael Jackson statue. Still today there are fresh flowers, pictures and small gifts from his fans. Just because Michael used to stay at the Bayerischer Hof.
The funny part of the picture, we went there with some friends to photograph the lights of the Promenadenplatz, and try something new. For example manual mode, tripod always the same position, just change the white balance. I looked at the pictures, the light very different on each picture. Just did not get it. But the answer from our guide Chris was simple. The lights were on automatic timers, going dark to bright within a short time. But not all of them at the same time, this would be to easy. But this is another story.
The real story, we are packing up, because we want to get some Glühwein, mulled wine, since it's close to christmas evening. So standing there, ready stow away camera, tripod and other stuff, the last couple of pictures, yes guessed rigth Maximillian

Monument Valley is located on the southern border of Utah with northern Arizona. The valley lies within the range of the Navajo Nation Reservation, and is accessible from U.S. Highway 163. The Navajo name for the valley is Tsé Bii' Ndzisgaii (Valley of the Rocks).
The area is part of the Colorado Plateau. The floor is largely Cutler Red siltstone or its sand deposited by the meandering rivers that carved the valley. The valley's vivid red color comes from iron oxide exposed in the weathered siltstone. The darker, blue-gray rocks in the valley get their color from manganese oxide.
The buttes are clearly stratified, with three principal layers. The lowest layer is Organ Rock shale, the middle de Chelly sandstone and the top layer is Moenkopi shale capped by Shinarump siltstone. The valley includes large stone structures including the famed Eye of the Sun.

I took this picture yesterday while watching the dancers dance to the music of the Manny Cepeda Orchestra. In this image, the trombone player has walked with his trombone into the audience area, and during a part of the music where he didn't have to play, he danced with this member of the audience. He is a very tall man, and appears to be at least 18 or more inches taller than his partner.
This is an infrared image taken with my converted Nikon D300 camera. I've been taking infrared photographs for about 10 years, and with a total of 3 different cameras. It's much easier to take infrared images digitally that it was in the film days. If you like this look, I have an album of infrared photographs, creatively named Infrared.

Another shot taken at the same location while my car was being towed at 07:00 a.m. and I happily didn't know that I had 170 € less in my bank account :-)
With three different generations of AlCo's as motive power as well as two different states (NSW & SA), 8037, 4477 and 872 certainly make a ruckus leading 2SM7 Qube containerised cement from Minto to Vic Dock, under the Hume Highway at Yanderra.
Upon arrival at Junee the locos would be swapped out for a QBX and presumably return to service on the Harefield shuttle.
"The oldest living city in the world".
On the top of Ahilyabai Ghat along river Ganga In Varanasi (Benaras) there is a Shiva Mandir (temple) where I like to come during winter only as the monsoon floods are usually covering it in summer.
Year after year I became a friend of the music shop owner nearby who has an amazing selection of Indo-fusion CDs; he keeps an eye on my shoes whenever I want to go inside the temple.
I took this shot inside the shrine which is dedicated to Lord Shiva, the God of the city.
On the left stands a big lingam, the priest on the right wasn't happy that day but I don't know why.
As a ritual of worship Hindus offer flowers, incense and a coconut in order to show respect to their chosen Gods or Goddesses and after blessing those things the priest is normally returning back some offers to the devotees who usually take them back at home and shares them with their close ones.
On the left there is the hand of a man who was asking for his offers, after a while a lady came and gave him instead of the Pundit.
Puja consists of meditation (dhyana), austerity (tapa), chanting (mantra), scripture reading (svadhyaya), offering food (thaal) and prostrations (panchanga or ashtanga pranama, dandavat).
The individual also applies a tilaka mark on the forehead with sandalwood paste, and then a vermillion (kumkum) dot (chandlo) in its centre.
This signifies submission to the Almighty and also His Omnipresence.
The priest didn't do it neither so as I was the oldest I applied tika on my friend Rajiv's forehead and on my brother Manish's one.
We never knew what was this tension about...

Different names of this plant are pot marigold, common marigold, ruddles, Mary's gold or Scotch marigold.
Things were different when I was a child. Big brothers took their little sisters out trick or treating. It was fun to be a princess for a night.
On Tuesday 12/10/2021, 1901s (1rail empty ore to Wirrida) is seen about 3km’s north of Two Wells (SA) with CLP17-CLF6-gwu003 in charge of a long rake of CQXY, AQMY & PQNY wagons.
Normally 2 or 3 AC traction units are assigned to this working, but a likely motive power shortage resulted in the combo on this day.
something different was what was going through my tiny mind the other night. A kind of middle eastern feel fused with western luxury or just one of the sultans many wives lol
Its also an idea for a painting if I ever get around to doing it all about the temptation of women. most will see her face framed by the blue. some will go straight to her bra and bare flesh faintly hidden beneath the chiffon.
Given the prevalence of fuel tender sets on road trains on FEC it's refreshing to get something different. On Thursday morning August 1st they ran a FEC 900 symbol train out of Bowden ahead of FEC 101 with a solo GE toting a string of gons full of stone destined for New Smyrna Beach. The signal in the background is the south end of the Holly Hill siding and the train is rolling through Daytona Beach in a gap of sun between two rainy patches of clouds. 8/1/19
a little different editing for me --

As I was leaving Highland Park this morning I noticed these 4 tress and thought, "You'll never find 4 trees together, each one so completely different from the others.

The Cathedral of Saint Peter (German: Trierer Dom) is a church in Trier, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It is the oldest cathedral in the country. The edifice is notable for its extremely long life span under multiple different eras each contributing some elements to its design, including the center of the main chapel being made of Roman brick laid under the direction of Saint Helen, resulting in a cathedral added on to gradually rather than rebuilt in different eras. Its dimensions, 112.5 by 41 m, make it the largest church structure in Trier. Since 1986 it has been on the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
De Dom van Trier (Dom St. Peter) is de kathedraal van Trier en de oudste bisschopskerk van Duitsland. Hij gaat in de kern terug op een Romeinse basilica die vanaf 326 werd gebouwd door de Romeinse keizer Constantijn de Grote. In de 11de eeuw kreeg de dom zijn huidige westfaçade, die de Salische stijl vertegenwoordigt. De dom van Trier staat sinds 1986 op de Werelderfgoedlijst van de UNESCO.
A spectral Christmas Eve walk at Ivinghoe Beacon.
Despite knowing this walk so well, there were a couple of moments when I lost my bearings in this blanket of fog.
