As always, thanks for all of you views and comments.
Dear friends, this image is not mine.
This Pastina boy is gone to cat's heaven!
He passed over the Rainbow bridge!
He was ill for a long time and couldn't be cured!
I am so sorry for your loss sweet Susy my darling friend!
Please take care, your Pastina is free from pain now!
"Please donāt cry
Iām not really gone
When you look out the window
Iāll be standing on the lawn
Please donāt cry
Iāll see you again
Donāt be sad
Keep up your chin
Please donāt cry
Iām not really dead
When you cry yourself to sleep
Iāll be by your bed
Please donāt cry
Just because we had to part
As long as you remember me
Iāll live in your heart
Please donāt cry
Iām not gone forever
Iāll be a cool and gentle breeze
In hot summer weather
Please donāt cry
Donāt run and hide
When you need a shoulder to lean on
Iāll be by your side
Please donāt cry
When youāre sad and weak
Iāll be there
To kiss you on the cheek
Please donāt cry
This is just a goodbye
So please, oh please
Baby, do not cry.."

All my love to you!!

Thank you all so much!
Groups of people can be seen exploring spectacular Machu Picchu in this panoramic view from near the entrance. Best seen large to appreciate the scale, this is a stitched three shot panorama of the 15th century Inca site which is located on a mountain ridge at about 8000 feet elevation. The ruins lie in a saddle between the the two mountains Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu, and are frequently shrouded in clouds. Machu Picchu is situated above a loop of the Urubamba River, which surrounds the site on three sides, with cliffs dropping vertically for 1,480 feet to the river at their base. The site was abandoned after the Spanish conquest, and rediscovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham. Because it was not known to the Spanish, it is relatively intact, and is a World Heritage site.

MADE POSITION #397 IN EXPLORE 8TH JUNE 2010
Best viewed large www.flickr.com/photos/garethscanlon/4682913769/sizes/l/
Taken on Skomer Island, Pembrokeshire. What fantastic birds with fantastic characters, totally un-phased by people. Taken with my 55-200mm VR at ISO400 and edited very slightly, curves and levels and mandatory sharpening only.
Heavy crop on this one.
Foto in Explore.
Migliore posizione=166
Posizione attuale=310.
Di questa immagino ho realizzato una versione verticale ed una obliqua.
Io personalmente preferisco la versione obliqua perchĆ© la "confusione" data dalle linee oblique e dalla assenza di un chiaro punto di riferimento, rende l'immagine piĆ¹ dinamica. Invece nella versione verticale che ĆØ esposta ugualmente bene e la messa a fuoco e altrettanto buona, si individua immediatamente il soggetto (la statua) e lo sguardo percorre linearmente la via, questo rende l'immagine piĆ¹ statica.
CiĆ² che mi piace particolarmente di entrambi le foto e l'esposizione (piĆ¹ o meno tutti i palazzi e la statua hanno una buona illuminazione considerando che ĆØ un notturno), la profonditĆ di campo (ĆØ tutto a fuoco dalla statua, fino alla facciata della stazione Porta Nuovo).
I woke up earlier than usual this morning, so I decided to drive to Jubilee Creek, to see if I could take an interesting photo (or two).
Now that I'm able to walk everywhere without pain again, I opted to (carefully) walk along the river instead of following the regular trail.
This might sound like a lot of fun, but it's easier said than done. There are plenty of places where logs and/or tangled vegetation will make this feel like you're doing an obstacle course.
I might not have captured any award-winning photos this morning, but at least I successfully completed the obstacle course.
The only thing that I could complain about afterwards was that my toes were feeling a bit cold. Life is good again!

The Jay is back in my garden. Lovely to see again. I think it appeared about the same time last year, and I guess, after nesting had finished, it flew off to another area. Anyway, its great to see it back :o)
Explored ..
nah, I didn't eat them like this, but they were on their way to the next phase ... I just had to ask my Wife to allow me to capture them before they leave this pan :-) .. trust me, eventually I ate those, but inside a pie ;-) ... (sorry, pie was devoured mostly by me before I even thought of taking pic :)
LIEU :
Parc de sculptures "Christian Gad" (1/2) Ć PLOUMANACH
DĆ©partement de ce petit patrimoine : Cotes d Armor
SituĆ© au carrefour de Ploumanac'h Perros-Guirec, ce parc prĆ©sente 12 sculptures monumentales dont 7 ont Ć©tĆ© rĆ©alisĆ©es par des sculpteurs internationaux lors du Symposium de sculptures monumentales sur granits qui s'est tenu Ć Ploumanac'h en 1998. Quelques annĆ©es auparavant une manifestation identique avait eu lieu Ć LanhĆ©lin en Ille-et-Vilaine (voir PP NĀ° 35147_1 et 35147_2).
Si Lanhelin est le pays du granit bleu, Perros-Guirec avec le granit de La ClartƩ est le pays du granite rose.
Les artistes jouent avec ces couleurs. Ils ont un mĆ©rite particulier : le granit est, parmi les matĆ©riaux naturels, la matiĆØre la plus dure qui soit Ć travailler.
Si le vandalisme a dĆ©truit nombre de panonceaux informatifs, il reste les Åuvres.
Nota : Ne soyez pas surpris de lire tantĆ“t granit (roche grenue massive, non poreuse, impermĆ©able et cohĆ©rente), terme de carrier ou marbrier et granite (roche plutonique grenue entiĆØrement cristallisĆ©e dont la composition minĆ©ralogique est bien prĆ©cise), terme de gĆ©ologue.
ENGLISH informations :
Located near the crossroads of Ploumanac'h (Perros-Guirec) , this Park presents 12 monumental sculptures among which 7 were realized by international sculptors during the Symposium of monumental sculptures on granites which was held in Ploumanac'h in 1998. A few years before an identical demonstration had taken place to LanhƩlin in Ille-et-Vilaine (see PP N 35147_1 and 35147_2).
If Lanhelin is the country of the blue granite, Perros-Guirec with the granite of The Clarity(Brightness) is the country of the pink granite.
The artists play with these colors. They have a particular merit: the granite is, among the natural materials, the hardest material which is to work.
If the vandalism destroyed some informative nameplates, the Masterpieces remain ! .
Noted:
Don't be surprised reading sometimes the word : granit (French word) ( massive, not porous, waterproof and coherent grainy rock), term of quarryman or monumental mason and granite (French word )(rock plutonique grainy completely crystallized whose mineralogical composition is very precise ) , geologist 's term .
I'm not a bug expert - can anyone help id this bug on some ageratum at Powis Castle gardens.

UPDATE - thanks to my contacts who have identified this as a dung fly - I suppose it's a cr*p job - but something has to do it!
