Manhattan architecture - NYC

A huge slab of ice with a few leaves embedded in it slid off my roof. It landed vertically in a snowbank so that sunlight backlit the leaves beautifully.

Best from a day long display. Surface winds were only averaging 12 mph at the time of this image.

At sunset, dying convective showers were lit by the sun on a fairly clear horizon. Temperature fell from 99F to 80F between 6:30PM and 7:30PM.

Sigöldufoss in the southern Icelandic highlands, just north of Landmannalaugar, is now only a shadow of itself, as most of its waters are redirected to a nearby power plant Sigöldustöð.

Still, a nice view...

 

From our photo tour guided by Rafn

This photograph captures a small religious shrine embedded into the wall of a narrow alley in Palermo, Italy. The shrine is housed in a rectangular structure with a beige frame, topped by a small cross and adorned with a golden star-shaped wire decoration. Inside, a figurine of the Virgin Mary or a saint is visible, protected by a black metal grate. The shrine is surrounded by a vibrant display of artificial flowers in various colors, including reds, yellows, whites, and greens, which provide a stark contrast to the aged and weathered appearance of the surrounding wall.

 

The wall itself tells a story of time and decay. Its surface is marked by cracks, patches, and peeling plaster, revealing layers of underlying brickwork and concrete. These textures add a sense of authenticity and history to the scene, characteristic of many older Mediterranean urban environments. The juxtaposition of the shrine's decorative beauty with the rough, imperfect wall creates a compelling visual contrast.

 

To the right of the shrine, a rusted metal roller door is visible, adding another layer of urban character to the image. The door, with its faded paint and scratches, suggests an old storefront or storage space, now seemingly abandoned or seldom used. This element enhances the feeling of quietness and introspection in the alleyway, inviting passersby to pause and reflect on the significance of the shrine amidst the unassuming setting.

 

At ground level, small patches of greenery emerge from cracks in the pavement, signaling nature's persistence in an otherwise urban landscape. These plants, along with the weathered textures and the delicate adornments of the shrine, create a harmonious blend of humanity, spirituality, and nature. The photograph encapsulates the charm and timelessness of Palermo’s streets, where sacred traditions coexist with the organic wear of everyday life.

Svínafellsjökull is a glacier outlet of the Vatnajökull ice cap, located in the Öræfi region of South Iceland within Vatnajökull National Park. The glacier flows down from Iceland's largest ice cap and is characterized by deep crevasses, ice ridges, and layers of volcanic ash embedded in the ice. It has been widely studied by glaciologists because of its accessibility and visible glacial features. Due to increased icefall risk associated with glacier retreat, access to the glacier front has been restricted in recent years.

Well, a theme I have used today is about paths. Some may be less travelled and others heavily travelled. It just so happens amongst the next photos I had to upload, there seemed to be many paths.

 

Well, this is obviously a wide path and despite its looks, a quite fascinating one. It happens to be Burnett Lane in the city centre of Brisbane. It runs parallel to the Queen Street Mall between Albert and George Streets, behind shops fronting Queen and Adelaide Street. If you walk up it, you will find it is filled with interesting art, Blue Ninja cut outs, tiny doors (about 12 inches high and a feature round town), signs, murals, paste ups and you guessed it, graffiti. So if you are in Brisbane, take your camera. It even has a coffee shop embedded in the wall where the man is standing....he is not relieving himself in public!

This old brewery buidling which is in a devastating state looks like its rotting in some lonely forrest - actually it is located in a franconian village where it seems to be mostly ignored.

First one of the Year, found this lonely Birch next to a small wooded path. The small beech on the left refusing to drop it's leaves. Happy New Year all.

Happy May first! - Schönen 1. Mai!

This bank of rock is just about 40 yards down the beach from the swirly sandstone outcrop of the previous shots. If you didn't know better, you would think that it was a man-made wall. The embedded boulders look to be set in cement.

Theme for the week - "Three"

 

Taken with my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 !

 

Three old and rusted Crossman ammo bb's embedded into a piece of 4x4 plywood used for backing the paper targets.

 

Usually my nephew and I play a game of Battleship shooting at the different sized ships and sub pinned to the board in two columns.

 

Of course we know where the ships are since they aren't hidden, but for the size and shape of the targets, it can still be rather challenging enough at the distance we shoot.

 

The same number of hits that the regular board / electronic games used to sink each ship is also used in our game.

 

It's a fun time to spend with my nephew once in a while on nice days . . . ;-)

We'd stayed on Lindisfarne over high tide and had to wait for it to subside, before crossing back over the causeway. As it was nearing sunset, we thought we'd see if we could get some sunset shots before the official "safe" time to cross. Several cars made the crossing before it was officially considered safe to do so but we checked the water level was well down before following suit. There are dire warnings about doing this when the tide is coming in!
