To the extent the Japanese rainy season, this year doesn't see the kind in an ordinary year.
I was leaving by earliness which is so.
This mountain where I came by chance in summer of last year is deep.
That a valley stream rich in the rustic beauty will be rainfall, the quantity of water.
It's rich and vivid.
This valley stream by which such rainy season has ended, mostly, daily.
Be so, I keep taking a picture.
The forest and the rock are covered by green moss up and are wonderful.
In a clear flow of the water on which faint light shines, life is feeling.drags me by overwhelming charm.
The earth where I live in this fascinating view, oh.
I realized and it was enriched, this, wonderful.
Made important forever as my memory.
I'd like to go on !
The precise extent of the once wooded area from which Southwood in the town of Ramsgate takes its name is uncertain. Today, Southwood has much clearer definition in the local inhabitant's mental map as a predominantly residential area and as the home ground of Ramsgate football. It equates with the area of the former Southwood Farm and of Southwood House. Southwood's large, Victorian water tower is also one of Ramsgate's distinctive and prominent landmarks. The Southwood neighbourhood occupies an area of about half a square kilometre, and consists of predominantly late nineteenth and early twentieth century houses. It sits on elevated ground one kilometre to the west of Ramsgate town centre and behind the more prestigious houses, cliff-top promenades, and greens of the West Cliff area.
The Tower was built in 1887 and was made a grade II listed building in 1988, now converted into flats.
Apparently my house was lot 3 when the farm was sold and was used as a brickfield until the row of houses were built in 1902. A brickfield is a common location name in southeast England. Its name derives from a field where the topsoil was removed and the clay beneath was stripped, and mixed with chalk and ash to create bricks, we now have topsoil and chalk so I suppose all the clay was used up!
I can see this building from anywhere in the front of the house. I went to take a pic of the front of the tower but it is packed with cars!
The pov makes it look crooked but it isn't and I think it is called perspective convergence!!
HFF Everyone!!

The yellow-crowned night heron (Nyctanassa violacea), is one of two species of night heron in genus Nyctanassa. Unlike the black-crowned night heron, which has a worldwide distribution, the yellow-crowned is restricted to the Americas. It is s a rather stocky wading bird, ranging from 55 to 70 cm and from 650 to 850 g (1.43–1.87 lb), the females being a little smaller than the males. The yellow-crowned night heron has a wingspan ranging from 101 to 112 cm. The neck, slim when extended, exposes its large head (compared to its body), with a large and heavy bill.
The body and back are a smooth grey-blue, with a black scaled pattern on the wings. The long legs are yellow and turn coral, pink or red during courtship. The most characteristic part of the yellow-crowned night heron is the head: black and glossy, with white cheeks and a pale yellow crown going from the bill, between the eyes and to the back of the head, giving the bird its common name. Such colours make the face appear striped in a horizontal black-white-black-white pattern. Long, thin, white feathers grow to the back of the crown during mating season. The bill, also black, is thick and deeply set under the eyes which are dark orange or red.
Subspecies and populations that are insular or live in warmer areas are confirmed to be sedentary. The tropical subspecies and populations migrate, but to an extent that is still unclear for lack of data. Migration occurs in mid-March in lower latitude, and from mid-March to April in higher latitude. (wikipedia)
New of this species turning up in Belcarra, an inland village in Co. Mayo, sent the Irish birdwatching world into a tizzy. I managed to get to see the bird a week after it was reported. It seems to have been present for quite a while, and probably since last autumn's storms. Only the 2nd record for Europe (a bird was in Portugal in 2020). A fantastic sight in a most beautiful setting. Worth leaving the house at 2.30am for!

The extent of what I can see after an hour with the retinal specialist.
It's always a long day after getting refracted. And I still haven't seen the regular optometrist about new glasses yet. I really have to find one that will work on Tuesdays and Wednesdays pretty soon, because I get no sick leave for medical appointments.
A bit of insanity, too. I was considering going to the nursery while dilated, but by the time my appointment was over, it was ninety-six degrees outside. I settled for lox and bagels instead. That much I could handle with dilated eyes and air conditioning.
And here we can see the full extent of the length of the new vehicle. Our 'standard' Gemini's are more than 11 metres, the latest fleet group of former London buses are a more than 10 metres, but keep going here right on to more than 13 metres long!
Nowhere else in Britain will have buses this length which may mean less over-crowding, but a few tight bends for the drivers.
Richard Hall, Managing Director, says,"We are pleased to announce our order and partnership with Alexander Dennis and Volvo for the production of 42 Euro 6 vehicles for our city bus fleet.
These vehicles will enhance our current fleet in line with our investment BUS2020 strategy and ensure that we continue to play our part to improve air quality across the city and Scotland whilst meeting our customers’expectations".

"The California Ground Squirrel was named after Frederick William Beechey, who explored much of Northern California in 1826-28 as captain of His Majesty's Ship Blossom, this squirrel is also sometimes called the Beechey Ground Squirrel.... California Ground Squirrels are found from central Washington through western Oregon, California and into the northern part of Baja California. The squirrel is found in plains, small meadows, tree-covered hillsides, rocky outcrops and granite taluses. The northern extent of its range was once bounded by the Columbia River, but the California Ground Squirrel has crossed the river into south-central Washington.... Their diet is is primarily seed-based, including barley, oats, and acorns. They eat eggs, insects, roots, tubers, seeds, grains, nuts and fruit. Ground squirrels are known to eat grasshoppers, crickets, beetles and caterpillars."

My desk today, I'm revising Biology and english literature (to some extent). I've got a new stretchy lamp. And yes, thats Windows 7 on my external display, running off of VMware on my macbook pro.. :)
Edit. I've now got my results from my exams, I got an A in literature. How the feck did that happen?
Edit2: That wasn't bragging, was it?
Adult female Hoodeds have variablity in the extent of their hood with some having hardly any evidence at all of a hood (perhaps a hint of black just in the sides of the crown) and some nearly resembling adult males like this one. Apparently the amount of black in the hood does NOT correlate with the age of the spring female. Notice despite the amount of black in her hood she has plenty of olive throughout it as well. She was hanging around a singing male who was undoubtedly trying to woo her. I was fortunate to get this image as she moved about the shadows in thick vegetation. Thanks for your visit!

Wildlife photography is to a large extent about opportunities, those you seize, those you miss, those you don't even see.... Red-winged blackbirds for sure are offering plenty of opportunities on Vancouver Island for a large portion of the year. It is probably one of the first bird I photographed when I started wildlife photography a few years ago. It is ever since, probably the bird I photograph the most each year. Yet, I feel that there is always a better picture of a red-winged blackbird which needs to be taken. The temptation was great to present a "year-end exhibit" of all those red-winged blackbird pictures I have taken this year. You will be glad I refrained from it. Here are a few I like.

It was a windy day and I barely got enough speed to get the bird in focus, the movement of the reeds in the distance created an interesting background.

Antarctica—the continent at the southernmost reach of the planet—is fringed by cold, often frozen waters of the Southern Ocean. The extent of sea ice around the continent typically reaches a peak in September and a minimum in February. The photograph above shows Antarctic sea ice on November 5, 2014, during the annual cycle of melt.
The image was acquired by the Digital Mapping System (DMS), a digital camera installed in the belly of research aircraft to capture images of terrain below. In this case, the system flew on the DC-8 during a flight as part of NASA’s Operation IceBridge.
Most of the view shows first-year sea ice in the Bellingshausen Sea, as it appeared from an altitude of 328 meters (1,076 feet). The block of ice on the right side of the image is older, thicker, and was once attached to the Antarctic Ice Sheet. By the time this image was acquired, however, the ice had broken away to form an iceberg. Given its close proximity to the ice sheet, this could have been a relatively new berg.

A collage of two images of the Moon and Venus taken minutes apart on April 28, 2020, to show the similarity in their phases this night, April 28, 2020. Both images were shot with the same focal length and camera and so are identical in image scale, to compare their apparent sizes. I have not enlarged Venus, but I have put a frame around it to emphasize that its image has been layered in as a composite.
The Moon was a 5.6-day-old waxing crescent this night, 32% illuminated.. Venus was at its greatest brilliancy, or Greatest Illuminated Extent, with a disk 38 arc seconds across and 27% illuminated, so slightly less.. But the Moon was closer in phase to Venus this night than it would have been the night before with a 5-day Moon. The Moon’s disk appears about 50 times larger than Venus’s.
Just to be clear — Venus was not this close to the Moon! I layered in the image of Venus taken after the Moon image, with both set in the deep blue evening twilight. Venus and the Moon were actually some 30° apart in the sky. But the composite illustrates their mutual phases and disk sizes.
Taken with the 130mm Astro-Physics refractor with a 2X Barlow lens for an effective focal length of 1600mm and with the Canon 60Da APS-sensor camera. The Moon image is the full frame of the sensor, uncropped. Both images are single short exposures at ISO 100.
Kinda had this image in mind, but not to this extent. At first I only built the street and the destroyed structures, but soon felt like it needed me, or a person in it. The first drafts had me standing in front, but it was too small and not saying anything, so I opted for the more destructive/Behemoth kinda me ;-) If that doesn’t spell danger ahead ;-)
I’m still feeling a bit lost photographically speaking at the moment. I do mind the lazy times I allow myself, but the creepy feeling of not having accomplished anything that day creatively is unsettling. And I do kinda feel disconnected with Flickr...just your average withdrawal I guess. Luckily I still have the Teleidoscope to keep my active here.

This species has a large range, with an estimated global Extent of Occurrence of 2,000,000 km². The global population size has not been quantified, but it is believed to be large as the species is described as 'frequent' in at least parts of its range (Stotz et al. 1996). Global population trends have not been quantified, but the species is not believed to approach the thresholds for the population decline criterion of the IUCN Red List (i.e. declining more than 30% in ten years or three generations). For these reasons, the species is evaluated as Least Concern.

This is another image from telescope live: the Crescent Nebula. It was a tough dataset to stack, as there were a bunch of dead pixel lines from the CCD. However, once the dataset was stacked, it was quite fun to process. The Oiii data was extremally strong, and it was really interesting to see the extent of the wispiness around the nebula. I’ve been experimenting with a new “natural” pallete made from SHO emissions, and I think it turned out pretty accurate!
NGC 6888, also known as the Crescent Nebula, is a cosmic bubble about 25 light-years across, blown by winds from its central, bright, massive star. It combines a composite color image with narrow band data that isolates light from hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the wind-blown nebula. The oxygen atoms produce the blue-green hue that seems to enshroud the detailed folds and filaments. NGC 6888’s central star is classified as a Wolf-Rayet star (WR 136). The star is shedding its outer envelope in a strong stellar wind, ejecting the equivalent of the Sun’s mass every 10,000 years. The nebula’s complex structures are likely the result of this strong wind interacting with material ejected in an earlier phase. Burning fuel at a prodigious rate and near the end of its stellar life this star should ultimately go out with a bang in a spectacular supernova explosion. Found in the nebula rich constellation Cygnus, NGC 6888 is about 5,000 light-years away.

"Klüsserath, official spelling until July 16, 1936: Clüsserath, on the Moselle is a local community in the Trier-Saarburg district in Rhineland-Palatinate, located approximately in the middle of Bernkastel-Kues and Trier. It belongs to the municipality of Schweich on the Roman Wine Route.
Klüsserath is located on the eastern border of the Trier-Saarburg district and is adjoined by the Bernkastel-Wittlich district.
Located in a wide, natural amphitheater in the Moselle valley, the “Klüsserath Brotherhood” wine wall behind the town is considered a classic Middle Moselle vineyard that slopes steeply to the south. Approximately 90 hectares of vineyards with a slope of up to 83% make the core location one of the largest contiguous southern slopes of the Moselle. The town of Klüsserath - a classic street village, stretches two kilometers in length between this steep slope and the Moselle. The long parallel streets are connected to each other by small alleys. The extent of Klüsserath has a proverbial character: As long as Klüsserath. The expression is also known: Richt aus Klüssert (straight ahead Klüsserath), which means something like straight ahead.
The Salm flows into the Moselle near Klüsserath.
Between the town and the foothills of the Moselle, the B 53, a former Middle Moselle road, runs along a flood protection dam that was built between 1927 and 1933.
The place name Klüsserath was subject to a wide variety of interpretations. The final syllable “-rath” refers to a clearing site (a settlement that was created through clearing). The first part of the place name could be derived from Chlodwig or Chlothar. The ending “-rada” could also indicate a swamp area at the confluence of the Moselle and Salm.
Various regional historians agree that Klüsserath was originally laid out and inhabited by Celts, although there is no reliable evidence of this. Accordingly, the local population belonged to the Celtic Treveri tribe. On his trip to Trier, the famous rhetorician and poet Ausonius visited the area at the confluence of the Salm and the Moselle and reports about it in his Mosella: “There, where green mats stretch along the river, where the Salm foams, unruly, no contemptible little water, unites with Mosella, otherwise peace in the landscape, is my homeland, my new one. With game and fish and vines, where could they be found richer! Diana, goddess of the hunt, you protect the homeland, the new one.”
At the end of the 5th century, the Franks advanced to Trier and subsequently took possession of the land in the Moselle valley. So they also settled in Klüsserath in the eastern part of the town, while the Gallo-Roman residents had settled on the Salm. On the site of the local castle there is said to have been a Franconian manor, which also included the first Klüsserath church (Michelskirche). Early ruling relationships for Klüsserath are documented as early as 634. Echternach Abbey probably received vineyards including winemakers and all accessories from Irmina von Oeren. In 698 Gerelind, daughter of the steward Odo, and Plektrud's grandson Arnulf, the founder of the abbey in Echternach, Saint Willibrord, gave goods in Klüsserath. The Echternacher Hof at the eastern end of the town is the successor to a farm from the eighth century. On May 20, 748, Chrodegang, Bishop of Metz, donated many properties of the Metz Cathedral to the Gorze Abbey, which he had founded, including: also “the village of Cluserado”. On November 12, 826, the Prüm Abbey exchanged various goods with Count Sigard and received, among other things, land and vineyards in Klüsserath. The diocese of Trier also owned property in Klüsserath. It seems that several manors existed in Klüsserath at the same time. Around 1200, the monastery of Sankt Thomas an der Kyll also acquired various goods in Klüsserath. From the end of the 13th century, the Lords of Bruch appeared as landlords in Klüsserath and, among other things, got a “house” there, which is probably the moated castle that is still preserved today. This was first mentioned in a document in 1270. The stone bridge was built over the filled-in ditch instead of the former covered wooden bridge. Today the castle is privately owned.
In 1295 a parish church was reported for the first time that was dedicated to St. Remigius and later also to St. Michael. There are records from 1304 of the construction of a new, larger church, whose Gothic choir can still be seen in today's parish church.
On December 15, 1468, the Elector of Trier, Johann II, “formally took over the protection and administration of the village of Clüsserath”. In 1512, Emperor Maximilian I interrupted his journey to Trier to the Reichstag in Klüsserath.
The pastor Johann Gerhard von Manderscheid, who was in office in Klüsserath, founded a rosary brotherhood in 1681 and donated nine vineyards to this association. The vineyards provided income with the help of which the pastor's position was filled regularly and permanently. This is where the name of the wine region known today comes from. Around 1700 a new building replaced the old Echternacher Hof, which has been preserved to this day.
On May 15, 1783, the foundation stone was laid for the reconstruction of the parish church, which was inaugurated on May 27, 1787.
Until the end of the 18th century, Klüsserath belonged to the Electorate of Trier and was part of the Pfalzel district.
As a result of the seizure of the region by French revolutionary troops, the town of Klüsserath belonged to the French canton of Schweich in the Saard department from 1798 to 1814.
Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna, the region was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia. Under the Prussian administration, Klüsserath became part of the Trier district in the Trier administrative district, which from 1822 belonged to the Rhine Province. The municipality of Klüsserath was assigned to the mayor's office of Trittenheim.
The local castle was auctioned off in 1803.
In 1909 a pontoon ferry replaced the old boat ferry to Köwerich. In 1922, a war memorial was erected in the cemetery in memory of those who died in the First World War. In 1923, as a result of the occupation of the Ruhr area by the Allies and due to inflation, payments in Klüsserath were only made in French francs. In 1933/34 the parish church was expanded to its current size.
The citizens of Klüsserath experienced the end of the Second World War on March 18, 1945. The Americans occupied the village in the early morning hours of March 10, after the last German soldiers had withdrawn across the Moselle to Köwerich and Trittenheim the evening before. However, on March 11th, German guns near Heidenburg opened fire on occupied Klüsserath, which more or less continued until March 18th. During these battles, civilians suffered the heaviest casualties. Many houses were badly damaged by shells, including the church and the castle.
Mosel (German: [ˈmoːzl̩]) is one of 13 German wine regions (Weinbaugebiete) for quality wines (Qualitätswein, formerly QbA and Prädikatswein), and takes its name from the Mosel River (French: Moselle; Luxembourgish: Musel). Before 1 August 2007 the region was called Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, but changed to a name that was considered more consumer-friendly. The wine region is Germany's third largest in terms of production but some consider it the leading region in terms of international prestige.
The region covers the valleys of the rivers Mosel, Saar, and Ruwer from near the mouth of the Mosel at Koblenz and upstream to the vicinity of Trier in the federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The area is known for the steep slopes of the region's vineyards overlooking the river. At 65° degrees incline, the steepest recorded vineyard in the world is the Calmont vineyard located on the Mosel and belonging to the village of Bremm, and therefore referred to as Bremmer Calmont. The Mosel is mainly famous for its wines made from the Riesling grape, but Elbling and Müller-Thurgau also contribute to the production, among others.
In the past two decades red wine production, especially from the Spätburgunder (Pinot noir), has increased in the Mosel and throughout the German vignoble and has become of increasing interest to the international wine community. Because of the northerly location of the Mosel, the Riesling wines are often light, tending to lower alcohol, crisp and high in acidity, and often exhibit "flowery" rather than or in addition to "fruity" aromas. Its most common vineyard soil is derived in the main from various kinds of slate deposits, which tend to give the wines a transparent, mineralic aspect, that often exhibit great depth of flavor. In the current era of climate change much work has been done to improve and gain acceptance for completely dry ("Trocken") Rieslings in this region, so that most of the more famous makers have found acceptance for such wines, particularly in Europe." - info from Wikipedia.

This is a stack of 4 x 6 second exposures for the ground to smooth noise and one 6-second exposure for the sky, all with the Nikon D750 at ISO 800 and Sigma 24mm Art lens at f/2.8. Orton glow effects added to the sky and ground with Luminar and Nik Collection effects. Diffraction spikes on Venus added with Astronomy Tools for artistic effect.
