A praia da Itapeva tem 6.000 metros de extensão e localiza-se após o Parque da Guarita, em Torres, Rio Grande do Sul. Tem esse nome devido ao Morro da Itapeva, que em tupi guarani significa “pedra chata”. Existe em Itapeva uma reserva ecológica e dunas. Distante cerca de 200km de Porto Alegre, é um local tranquilo e de poucas moradias.

This photo was taken in October, looks like it's taken in summer...
It's only saturated little, original below.
There sure are a lot of them right now but some are delicate, like the white ones. No idea what the real name is but I call them 'morning light'.
Click on this a time or two to embiggen it and view large. This 11-shot handheld panorama of ducks in the frigid pond at Greenfield near Daleville, Va., shot with a Nikon D850 and a Nikkor 200-500mm lens at about 400mm, was made with the idea that if you can't isolate one duck with a honking-big zoom lens, then try to get them all in with a telephoto pano shot. The original had 21 frames, but the computer would only chew on 11! ©2022 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
The snowy owl (Bubo scandiacus), also known as the polar owl, the white owl and the Arctic owl, is a large, white owl of the true owl family. Snowy owls are native to the Arctic regions of both North America and the Palearctic, breeding mostly on the tundra. It has a number of unique adaptations to its habitat and lifestyle, which are quite distinct from other extant owls. One of the largest species of owl, it is the only owl with mainly white plumage. Males tend to be a purer white overall while females tend to have more extensive flecks of dark brown. Juvenile male snowy owls have dark markings that may appear similar to females until maturity, at which point they typically turn whiter. The composition of brown markings about the wing, although not foolproof, is the most reliable technique to age and sex individual snowy owls.
Built in 1907 and has an interior that is very similar to the style that the Titanic was finished in. Hope that this will open once again for tours so that I can see the inside.
This morning I took a bike ride around Kohler-Andrae State Park and came across some fellow explorers. I guess everyone was interesting at seeing what was beyond their present horizon today.
BTW-I've been doing more bike riding than walking for the last couple of weeks. I'm working through what may be plantar fasciitis in one of my feet. While my foot is better, biking doesn't put the same stress on the muscle that walking does. I find it cool that biking is OK because I enjoy biking and don't feel housebound. :-)

Let’s continue with this night with Yulia (you could see the story in the previous post). That was August 12th and today is November 1st. Summer is over, winter is entering with the first snow. Sometimes I can hardly keep up with myself. I’m taking photos and not making them. Making and not exhibiting. Exhibiting and not answering to comments soon enough (and feel guilty about that). Vonnegut’s Winston Niles Rumfoord from “The Sirens of Titan” was unstuck in space and time with an obvious drawbacks and some advantages. I feel the same side-effect of life to a slight degree. Recently I thought that the time is moving forward (probably), but acts in all directions. And I definitely live not just in present. Maybe the present is the less part of my life… How do you feel about it all?
To be continued…

Not too long ago, I rode along the intimate road of West Lake on Thursday and observed many changes in this place. I heard that the local government has approved the construction of an opera house project near the lake. In this image, which my friend captured and of us standing here, you can see the area where the opera house will be built. I’m unsure about what will happen or how this will affect the area in the future once in the opera house has been completed?
I truly love this place and feel a deep emotional affection to it. West Lake belongs to everyone - to me, to the local people living around it and to many couples. I’m posting this content I like and with no offense intended. I will cherish the soul, beauty and traditional culture that this place represents. 😔
Certainly, cultural values often face challenges over time. I hope that West Lake will develop while preserving its tradition, culture and environment. Because this place is a part of me, cheers!! 😄
