This was the first image I shot, at this new favorite place. The composition is similar to my previous post; however the lighting is very different. Shot during sunset, I was able to record a wide range in contrast of light. A neutral density grad is necessary to keep both the sky and canyon details as correctly exposed as possible. Adjusting white & color balance in post-processing keeps tones looking very close to the way my eyes witnessed the scene.
Une vue vers l'ouest à partir de la Plaza de la Armería à Madrid, Espagne.
La colossale cathédrale de Nuestra Señora de la Almudena, dont la construction a duré plus d'un siècle (le projet initial date de 1879), encadre, avec la Palais royal, la Plaza de la Armería où se trouve sa façade principale. Avec son architecture néoclassique mâtinée de gothique en harmonie avec le palais et un intérieur néogothique, elle semble sortie tout droit du 19e siècle alors qu'elle n'a été achevée que dans les années 1990 et consacrée par le pape Jean-Paul II en 1993. Elle est dédiée à la sainte patronne de la ville dont une image peinte au 16e siècle orne l'autel de la crypte.
Son titre "Almudena" est d'origine arabe et selon les historiens vient du mot « al-Mudayna », l'ancienne enceinte militaire sur la colline où se situe aujourd'hui la cathédrale et le palais royal de Madrid. La légende raconte qu'en 712 avant une supposée prise de Madrid par les Arabes, les habitants de la ville ont caché une statue de la Vierge dans les murs de la muraille pour la protéger. En 1085, suite à la reconquête de la ville au 11e siècle par le roi Alphonse VI de León, après des jours de prières, une procession passe près de la puerta de la Vega et un fragment de mur de l'une des tours tombe découvrant la statue restée intacte avec les deux cierges avec lesquelles elle avait été calfeutrée toujours allumés malgré des siècles passés. C'est par la suite qu'elle devint la patronne de la ville.
En 1561, Philippe II décida de déménager la capitale, de Tolède, trop petite et confinée, à Madrid qui était située presqu'au centre du pays. Située au centre de la péninsule et de la Meseta, sur les contreforts de la sierra de Guadarrama, Madrid, à 2000 pieds par rapport au niveau de la mer, est aujourd'hui la 2e capitale la plus haute d'Europe.
En tant que l'une des plus jeunes capitales d'Europe, la ville est lumineuse, vibrante et hospitalière. L'héritage de ses deux grandes dynasties, les Habsbourg et les Bourbons, lui vaut une richesse artistique exceptionnelle, exposée au Prado ou aux musées Thyssen-Bornemisza et Reina Sofía. Cette ville cosmopolite a connu un développement extraordinaire lors des dernières décennies et frappe aujourd'hui par son animation incessante.
Arnside, Cumbria, sits at the northeastern corner of Morecambe Bay. Here, the sands are exposed temporarily near low tide, with the shallow channel of the River Kent estuary the only water.
A man and his son are on a paddleboard, letting the current do the work. Liminal - calm and peaceful before the tide turns.

One of the attractions about Seaside is the tide pools. Once a year, in winter, we have very low tides that expose pools that are created by the tidal flux. People come from all around to see creatures stranded in pools, waiting for the tide to rise again and wash them away. So each year I add to my series "Exploring the Tide Pools" where I capture a small slice of life with people interacting with this natural wonder.
CITY DOME : conçu par l’architecte de la ville Robert Morham en 1895. Bâtiment classique octogonal de plain-pied, à 8 baies avec grand dôme circulaire, situé dans le coin NE de l’enceinte. Toit en dôme en cuivre avec fleuron boule. Le City Dome a été construit pour abriter un télescope de 22 pouces (56 cms) fabriqué par J. Buckingham qui était trop grand pour être utilisé dans l’observatoire de Playfair. Le télescope y est resté jusqu’en 1926, date à laquelle il a été démantelé pour être exposé au Musée royal d’Écosse. Dans les années 1950, il était dans un état de délabrement grave. La fin du 20ème siècle a vu la réparation externe et interne et la rénovation du dôme ; un plafond suspendu cache l’intérieur du dôme et le bâtiment sera (2002) aménagé en amphithéâtre et auditorium.
CITY DOME : Designed by city architect Robert Morham in 1895. Classic octagonal, single-storey, 8-bay building with large circular dome, located in the NE corner of the compound. Copper domed roof with ball finial. The City Dome was built to house a 22 inch (56 cms) telescope made by J. Buckingham which was too large for use in the Playfair Observatory. The telescope remained there until 1926, when it was dismantled for display in the Royal Museum of Scotland. By the 1950s it was in a serious state of disrepair. The late 20th century saw external and internal repair and renovation of the dome; a suspended ceiling hides the interior of the dome and the building will be (2002) converted into an amphitheater and auditorium.
Yes, the forest nemesis. Not overly big one's, just enough to trip the trekker. Apart from that, they contrast well with the path ahead in both colour and growth.
Mealy Bug or Woolly Aphid exposing it self. I walked the path that goes through the woods looking for anything that moved. I saw this little cotton ball moving on a leaf. I was curious, so I took a few pics. My backyard. Central Bucks, PA.
No idea as to what type, but I think that this one is a looker. As far as the photo goes, Iwould have liked to have had the head in focus, but as is, I really like this one because of the wings.. Not too often you see damsels resting with their wings exposed like that, so it was a treat to be able get them pretty sharp with the reflections coming off of them.
Sea cliffs expose the volcanic rocks at Ponta do Mistério which is located between the villages of Agualava and Quarto Ribeiras on the Island of Terceira in the Azores. Here, columnar basalt (basalt that exhibits columnar or prismatic jointing) is overlain by tuffaceous breccia. Columnar jointing is produced by cooling of lava flows, ash-flow tuffs, and other bodies of magma or lava. It is particularly common in basaltic lava flows. Cooling causes contraction which in turn causes fracturing. Fractures propagate from the top and bottom of flows inward towards the center These rocks are part of the volcanic complex associated with the Pico Alto volcano. In the Azores, the word, mistério means a lava flow. The direct translation of the word mistério in Portuguese means mystery. During the settlement of the islands in the 1400 and 1500’s, the Portuguese from the mainland were unfamiliar with volcanic activity. The fiery flows of molten rock that occasionally destroyed homes and lives were indeed a mystery to them.
Abandoned on the exposed cliffs of the Cornish Coast and battered by the Atlantic sea, the Crown Mines of Botallack stand as a monument to a bygone era of brutal hardship for those who worked in their dark and dangerous depths. Ragged, black rock rises up from the ocean, telling a story of fortunes won, the despair of lives lost and the inevitable tide of change.
Thanks for viewing, take care and stay safe everyone :-)
The 1st day of our trip had us heading for Reykjanes. The previous evening we managed to see the erupting volcano with a bit of ducking and diving around the security but it was all perfectly legal what we did and being with responsible adults I knew I was in safe hands. lol. We arrived at the Lighthouse to windy conditions. Our Co-Driver promptly jumped out of the car to ascertain what way the wind was blowing. (Always a stickler for accuracy) so we could get the steam at its best.

Lake Emerald, in Oakland Park, Florida -US- near Fort Lauderdale.

The court-confirmed minimum level of Mono Lake is several feet higher than the lake ahs been in recent years. It's hard to say when the lake might regain that depth, but when it does many of the calcium carbonate tufa rock formations that we see today will be at least partially submerged.
Captured while leading a seminar for the Mono Lake Committee in November 2019. Lori Hibbett and I will be leading another Mono Lake Moon Rise and Winter Light workshop at Mono Lake December 17-19, 2022.

There is nothing quite like being over 11,000 feet up at sunrise in a bitter cold wind. You feel incredibly alive and also very exposed. You are out in the elements and there is little to protect you. Even though this feeling can be intimidating, I like to picture the wind as God’s love and presence and being fully exposed to it. There are no worldly shelters in the way to protect you from the beautiful blast of Himself! What a joy it is to be in His presence fully exposed!
Quarrying detritus uncovered by drought. The last time I shot this scene, the light was brighter, the water was lower, and it was frozen solid.
Stay with me forever
Stay in till it's dark
Stay in till the morning
Till we see the sun
Say you'll never leave me
Here's where you belong
Stay in till the morning
Stay a little while
Liz I can't wait to get you in my bed
Do you need me?, Do do do do do you need me baby.
It's been months since you've been here and say...
Did you mean it?, Did did did did did you mean it baby.
Now work with me a little while
Much of settling down but we hanging around
Started in a whole damn show, but we at the whole time low
Yeah it won't be a little while
Not in till late till we reconcile
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
(Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do)
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
(Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do)
Here are hearts exposed,
Not nobody takes the seats while the curtains close
Sway our hearts in motion
Swaying in all night
Swaying in slow motion
Until our hearts collide
I'm not good with emotion
But show me a little more fun
Just a little more devotion
That you willing to make it right
It's been months since you've been here and say...
Likely 1.45-billion-year-old Hauser Lake Gneiss - which is also found in the Saltese Uplands nearby. See comments below which were helpful. 🙏😊 @PisoMojado
Location: latitude 47.683188°, longitude -117.11264° in Liberty Lake, eastern Washington State, USA.
The region is under a level 2 drought response with mandatory summer water conservation in place, and as a result, the Spokane River is at a low point earlier this year than in previous years.
Therefore, rocks that would be submerged are visible. I was curious about this boulder and all of its pits, ridges and overall surface markings. I believe the surface color is muted due to dried-out biofilm/bleached algae & minerals.
By the way, it is surrounded by water striders (Gerridae) which you can see if you zoom in - if anyone is also interested in insects.
Pareidolia bonus: torsos & monkeys 😁
