Not yet ready for sunbathing and swimming but for an extended walk : Hvidbjerg Strand in March, Jylland, Denmark.
A brightly coloured bird, the golden-browed chlorophonia is distinctive within its range. The male is bright green above and yellow below, with a wide golden-yellow eyebrow stripe and a violet-blue cap. It has a narrow blue eye ring and a thin blue line extending from its nape to its breast. The female is similar, but without the golden brown and yellow breast; these are both replaced with green. They average 13 cm (5.1 in) in length.
Last week, on Tuesday, January 26th, I woke to a scene I've viewed before. All the tree branches were heavily coated with fresh white snow that had fallen overnight. I cannot view such a scene without thinking, "winter wonderland!" This shot was taken from my living room window with my iPad. The image has been cropped and edited.

The Wimbach Gorge is a gorge in Ramsau near Berchtesgaden in Bavaria, which extends over about 200 metres and is cut by the Wimbach torrent. It is located in Berchtesgaden National Park at the narrowing exit of the Wimbach Valley.
Agraulis vanillae (Gulf Fritillary / Mariposa Espejitos)
The Gulf fritillary is a medium to large butterfly, with a wingspan of 6–9.5 cm (2.4–3.7 in). It takes its common name from its migration over the Gulf of Mexico.
The Gulf fritillary extends from Argentina north through Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean to the southern United States, as far north as the San Francisco Bay Area on the west coast. (Wikipedia)

This geological feature extends over 10 km in het northwest of the French department of Côtes d’Armor.
In addition to its characteristic colour, the “Côte de granit rose” is dotted with chaotic clusters, the flagship of which is the customs path (Sentier des douaniers).
There are only 3 pink granite coasts in the world, one in Brittany, one in Corsica and one in China.
Why pink?
The granite is made up of 3 main minerals: mica that gives it its black colour, feldspar which gives it its pink colour and quartz which gives a grey tint.
Feldspar is usually white, except that on this coast hematite impurities have been added to the crystal lattice of feldspar.
A large rove beetle with extended exposed abdomen covered by hardened plates and composed of 8 segments. Uniformly black body covered in fine, black hairs (setae). Shortened wing cases (elytra) which cover the thorax, concealing a folded second pair of wings which enable flight.
I planted this in my wheelbarrow garden around 18 months ago and although the plant grew, no flowers appeared. Peter told me it was a weed and was going to pull it out. After I threatened him, he decided to leave it alone. Imagine my surprise when this week it decided to flower. I am so excited as I have seen them in gardens in the UK when travelling around.
This extended tessellation of the '4-Butterflies' is related to the 'Extended open connection 5'. So I call this new one: 'Extended Open Connection 7'.
Folded from an orange sheet of glassine, hexagon 33cm, grid 1:96.

Rot ist eine der Primärfarben. Manche weisen ihr Aggressivität als Merkmal zu, Das muss nicht immer stimmen. In die Farbfülle einer natürlichen Umgebung eingebettet entfaltet Rot eine durchaus angenehme Wirkung,
The favorite color of most people is blue. But red also has a lot to offer in his gradients.
Due to my health condition, I am unable to hold or stabilize a camera for extended periods of time. Additionally, using a tripod has never been enjoyable for me, as it would cause pain when trying to position it correctly and constantly bending over to check the viewfinder. Consequently, I have chosen to explore digital AI artwork as an alternative. I understand that this may not be everyone's cup of tea, as it diverges from traditional photography. However, I have always granted myself the freedom to exercise artistic license and pursue whatever brings me joy. Currently, digital AI artwork fulfills that purpose, at least for the time being.

Same tree, same hole, different bird! Three weeks ago we took a picture of a red owl. This time it is apparently grey. Eastern Screech-Owls have a red morph and a grey morph. We do not know what happened here. Maybe the gray fought for the nest and won, but we hope it is a couple. We will check back if they started a family.

Pito real (Picus viridis)
El más común y extendido de nuestros pájaros carpinteros, el pito real, es un ave inconfundible de la que, en muchas ocasiones, tendremos referencia por su característico canto: una especie de sonoro relincho que delata su presencia en las arboledas ribereñas, los bosques caducifolios y las áreas ajardinadas donde se instala. Activo consumidor de invertebrados, este pícido dispone de una larga y pegajosa lengua con la que prospecta los resquicios de los hormigueros en busca de los huevos, larvas y adultos que constituyen la base de su dieta.
Descripción
Clasificación
Orden Piciformes; familia Picidae
Longitud 31-33 cm
Envergadura40-42 cm
Identificación
Es un pájaro carpintero grande y robusto, de aspecto inconfundible, en cuyo plumaje dominan claramente los tonos verdosos, más intensos en las regiones dorsales, ligeramente grisáceos en las ventrales y con matices amarillentos en el obispillo. Carece de moteados y listas —salvo, tenuemente, en la región anal—, pero luce un llamativo patrón de coloración en la cabeza, donde el píleo es rojo y los ojos, amarillentos, aparecen enmarcados por un antifaz negro. Los machos y los jóvenes presentan una bigotera negra y roja, que es exclusivamente negra en las hembras. El plumaje juvenil se caracteriza por ser fuertemente moteado,
especialmente en las partes inferiores, aunque, en conjunto, su coloración es más apagada que la del adulto, no presentan antifaz y poseen un iris más oscuro.
Su vuelo es muy característico, con una trayectoria ondulatoria en la que el ave combina tramos en los que bate las alas con otros en que las pliega.
Canto
El canto de esta especie es inconfundible y lo emiten tanto machos como hembras a lo largo de todo el año; se podría definir como una especie de relincho, muy sonoro, que el ave ejecuta en una secuencia rápida, de unos dos o tres segundos de duración. Al contrario que otros carpinteros, no es habitual que el pito real use el tamborileo para comunicarse.
Gleichenia alpina (alpine tangle fern or alpine coral-fern) is a small fern species that occurs in New Zealand and Tasmania. It grows in subalpine bogs and scrub, and other cold, open habitats, usually in the open, and rarely extends into forest.

Long exposure of the storm clouds passing by Canyon de Chelly in Arizona. The patterns in the clouds from the extended exposure are neat here in that they show the turbulence there in the air above the canyon and in the storm.
The Wadden Sea is the largest tidal flats system in the world, where natural processes proceed largely undisturbed. It extends along the coasts of Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands.
For its globally unique geological and ecological values the Wadden Sea is listed by UNESCO as World Heritage. Nowhere else in the world is there such a dynamic landscape with a multitude of habitats, shaped by wind and tides. Global biodiversity is reliant on the Wadden Sea.
In the framework of the Trilateral Wadden Sea Cooperation, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands take on the responsibility of preserving this irreplaceable ecosystem for the benefit of present and future generations. (Source: www.waddensea-worldheritage.org)
Thanks for your views. faves and comments, they are much appreciated!
I've long been intending to try creating an "Out-Of-Bounds" image, in which the subject is made to extend beyond a frame, but I hadn't gotten around to it. So when the "Framed" topic came up in the Our Daily Challenge group, it seemed like a good time to give it a go.
I was happy with the result when I got the gator and the frame finished, but it seemed to need something more, so I added the text and additional frame. This image covers a second ODC topic, "Animals," as well.
The alligator isn't real, by the way. It's a souvenir made of ceramic-like material that my wife bought as a surprise for me at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm when we were in Florida last year. What a sweetie she is, and it's a much better kind of surprise than being "surprised" by one of these critters on the trail too. :-)
I am also adding this image to the Sliders Sunday group.

I've been looking at some tutorials on how to make the moon look more colourful in photos. This is a single frame, not stacked, taken just now 25th Feb 2021.
playing with the livecomp on my pen-f. hoya ndpro100 filter on the oly 12-40. stacked 6 sec exposures for 10 min or so.
One source says the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains range is about 1,000 km (620 mi) in length. Its highest point is 7,090 m (23,260 ft) located 100 km (62 mi) to the northwest of Lhasa. The range is parallel to the Himalayas in the Transhimalayas, and north of the Brahmaputra River. [3] Another source says the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains extend 460 miles (740 km) from Nyêmo County in the west to Ranwu County (the southwestern part of Baxoi County) in the east.
Its highest peak is Mount Nyenchen Tanglha (Nyainqêntanglha Feng) at 7,162 metres (23,497 ft).[4]
The southern side of the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains is precipitous, and falls by around 2,000 metres (6,600 ft), while the northern side is fairly level and descends about 1,000 metres (3,300 ft). Most of the mountains are below 6,500 metres (21,300 ft).[5] They contain 7080 glaciers covering an area of 10,700 square kilometres (4,100 sq mi).[4]
The Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains have an average latitude of 30°30'N and a longitude between 90°E and 97°E. Together with the Gangdise Shan located further west, it forms the Transhimalaya [a] which runs parallel to the Himalayas north of the Yarlung Tsangpo River.
The Drukla Chu river rises in the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains, where it is called the Song Chu river, and joins the Gyamda Chu river. The combined rivers run about 100 kilometres (62 mi) southeast to the Yarlung Tsangpo river.
This aircraft was supplied to the USSR as part of the 'lend-lease' scheme during WW2. It crashed during a training mission in 1945 and the wreckage was recovered in the late 1990s having, to some extent, been preserved by the extreme cold. It's probably true to say that this is a replica incorporating some parts from the original. It was restored by and is owned and operated by Peter Teichman.
It wasn't the best time to photograph the moon since it was almost as far away as it can get from the Earth when full this year. Never heard the term before but I discovered it is called a Micro Moon. Looking forward to the November Super Moon.
Thanks for viewing!
The river Elbe flows into the North Sea. It´s tides extend to the City of Hamburg and beyond. At high tide this sandbank is overflooded.
Die Elbe mündet in der Nordsee. Die Gezeiten der See reichen zurück bis nach Hamburg und darüber hinaus. Bei Hochwasser ist diese Sandbank überflutet.

Confirmed by Laurens Halsey through eBird.
This hybrid was seen at the Santa Rita Lodge in Madera Canyon, Arizona.
It has a lack of rust color in the greater coverts and at the base of the secondaries, and more red color at the base of the bill than the pure Berylline bird which was also being seen in this spot in August.
Photographed on a cloudy afternoon. Typical Arizona monsoon weather.

We recently have extended rain, and we need it. I drove from the Silicon Valley to La Honda, located on the peninsula of the San Francisco Bay Area. The hilly area is full of redwoods. I drove along a windy road among redwoods, it was drizzly and foggy.
I processed a photographic, a paintery, and a balanced HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the curves and color balance, desaturated the image, and added strong vignetting. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

The idea of founding a private company to build a railroad in São Paulo arose in 1864, when the São Paulo Railway (Brazil), which linked Santos to Jundiaí, declared itself unable to extend its rails to Campinas. On December 16, 1867, the Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro was founded to attend to the progress of coffee plantations.
The construction of the Fepasa Complex in Jundiaí was begun in 1870 and in 1872 the inaugural train was circulating. The first electric train in South America circulated in its lines in July 1922. With a total area of 111,000 m² and 45,000 m² of constructed area, the Fepasa Complex housed its administrative offices, maintenance workshops and garage of the trains that circulated through the São Paulo rail network. It was the pride of the Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro and, currently, with many trains and own construction in almost total abandonment.
