Double Arch ... in Arches National Park.

I found this pretty jumping spider on the windscreen of my car, and thought, with the reflection, the image might be quite fitting for today's Macro Mondays theme `Seeing Double'.

Double vision - Total stillness across Lochan na h-Achlaise sees a snow topped Black Mount in mirror perfect reflection on the waters of the lochan. Shifting sunlight breaking through the clouds paints a wonderful scene of constantly changing dappled light striking the Black Mount. Nature's light play and magic at its best.

I almost forgot that it's Happy SlidersSunday, and, since I had this one from a recent rock show already ready, I figured I'd double-dip today... ;)

 

HSS!

A snap shot of this Cormorant outside McDonalds in Orlando, Florida. It was drying it's non-oiled wings in the sun.

Couldn't see this to focus so just did it anyway. Lucky shot in the dark!

A small thunderstorm passed just to the east, right on sunset a shaft of light came over head and lit up exactly the right rain drops. 2 minutes later it was gone.

EP09-030 and EP09-023 with the express train no. 5311 "Małopolska" from Gdynia Główna to Przemyśl Główny, two minutes after depart from Warszawa Centralna and two minutes before arrival at Warszawa Zachodnia (West) station on March 23, 2003. The second locomotive is only sent to Kraków and it doesn't work as tractive effort. 3MW of the continuous power of the first locomotive is far enough to accelerate this train. Funfact, these locomotives are now slowly being withdrawn from the service as the deliveries of brand new EU160 and EU200 from Newag continue. It may occur, that much older EU07 will outlive younger EP09.

Duet dziewiątek o numerach 030 i 023 z ekspresem 5311 "Małopolska" z Gdyni do Przemyśla zbliża się do stacji Warszawa Zachodnia, 23 marca 2003 roku.

Druga lokomotywa nie pełni roli konia pociągowego, lecz jest planowo podsyłana do Krakowa dla zamknięcia (czy otwarcia) obiegu. Zresztą odpalenie pełnej mocy przez dwie takie lokomotywy skończyłoby się wywaleniem bezpieczników na podstacji trakcyjnej. Może dlatego duety dziewiątek były do-syć rzadkie wówczas.

Co ciekawe, wygląda na to, że starsze EU07 przeżyją dziewiątki w pracy w PKP Intercity, gdyz te ostatnie powoli zaczynają być wycofywane z eksploatacji.

An impromptu street portrait taken in Glasgow, Scotland. A pair of entertaining Glaswegian characters, Alan and Eric where engaged in a very animated complaint about having to smoke outside next to the diesel bus fumes. Like a classic 'straight and funny' double act a memorable encounter and conversation ensued. Go large by pressing 'L'.

Double Arch is a close-set pair of natural arches, one of the more known features of Arches National Park in Utah, United States. From the Double Arch parking area it's a 0.5 mile (0.8 km) round trip to the arches.[1] There are no guardrails or fences to prevent visitors from exploring directly beneath and through the arches.

 

The area was used as a backdrop for the opening scene of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, in which the arches are briefly visible. However, the cave shown in the movie does not exist.[2]

 

Double Arch was formed differently from most of the arches in Arches National Park. It is what is known as a pothole arch;[3] it formed by water erosion from above rather than more typical erosion from the side. The larger opening has a span of 148 feet (45 m) and a height of 104 feet (32 m).[3]

We took a day off of riding and went to visit the National Parks. This is a cool place to park and walk to several arches. Here you can see Turret Arch, Double Arch, North Window and South Window.

 

Ever wonder what causes these arches? Natural arches are formed within a rock wall such as the Windows or they can be free standing like Delicate Arch. They usually occur in the weak layer of the rock after years and years of water and wind erosion.
