En février de cette année, l'observation de ce magnifique canard dans l'un de nos marais des bords du Rhône.
In February of this year, the observation of this magnificent duck in one of our marshes on the banks of the Rhône.
An ecology public art project in Breckenridge, Colorado. The trunks are painted with a nontoxic water-based blue paint. Exquisite colors.

It's easy to sit and remark at the olden days of the Pacman SD40s wishing that era would return but quite frankly, these SD40 ECO rebuilds are just awesome. Who doesn't like flared radiators? Here's K50 heading down to Dubuque coming from Marquette
Clouds over the junk jard near City Varazdin (Croatia). Bags are vaiting here for a years to be destrojed / burned or moved to somewhere else.
While checking bottle traps following a great crested newt survey, I managed to grab a photo through the bottle while holding the plastic bottle in front of pond vegetation to give an underwater effect. Cheap Tesco bottles work best because they're incredibly thin.
This tree trunk is near horizontal, and the cracks or furrows in the thick bark serve as small ledges where green moss and a small amount of white lichen have grown. At Riley Park in northwest Calgary.

Vine Street Expressway
The street lights around the Vine Street Expressway onramp at 21st St are favorite perches from which the Parkway hawks scan the rodent-rich scrubby verges of the crosstown highway. The field of road ecology, which studies the ecology of transportation infrastructure, was founded by R.T.T. Forman around the turn of the century.
"Ecology and spirituality are fundamentally connected, because deep ecological awareness, ultimately, is spiritual awareness."
-Fritjof Capra
The increase of population spurs technological progress and creates that anxiety which sets us against our environment as an enemy; while technology both facilitates increase of population and reinforces our arrogance, or "hubris," vis-à-vis the natural environment.
The attached diagram illustrates the interconnections. It will be noted that in this diagram each corner is clockwise, denoting that each is by itself a self-promoting (or, as the scientists say,"auto catalytic") phenomenon: the bigger the population, the faster it grows; the more technology we have, the faster the rate of new invention; and the more we believe in our "power" over an enemy environment, the more "power" we seem to have and the more spiteful the environment seems to be.
(for the diagram see: www.colorado.edu/AmStudies/lewis/ecology/sick.htm )
... The ideas which dominate our civilization at the present time date in their most virulent form from the
Industrial Revolution. They may be summarized as:
(a) It's us against the environment.
(b) It's us against other men.
(c) It's the 'individual (or the individual company, or the individual nation) that matters.
(d) We can have unilateral control over the environment and must strive for that control.
(e) We live within an infinitely expanding "frontier."
(f) Economic determinism is common sense.
(g) Technology will do it for us.
We submit that these ideas are simply proved false by the great but ultimately destructive achievements of our technology in the last 150 years. Likewise they appear to be false under modern ecological theory. The creature that wins against its environment destroys itself.

5 exposures of +2, +1, 0, -1 and -2 made up this HDR image.
Used autobracket feature of Nikon D200 (can go up to 9 exposures in one burst).
The HDR treatment I used here is to reveal a realistic image rather than my usual artistic HDR style. Some HDR afficionados call it True Tone HDR or TTHDR for short.
Hope you like it.
