Ischgl is one of most famous ski resorts in Austria. In the past there was my "living room". It is the best for Apres ski.
On the left site you can see the Idalp Restaurant.
This morning I'm on the way to Soelden. It is also a famous ski resort in the Alps. I hope that I will take some good pictures.
And that the weather is fine for skiing
Iceland is famous for its countless waterfalls but I feel that too many people are just rushing to the large and famous ones. If one travels without haste and off the beaten tracks, there are endless scenarios of natural beauty and less known waterfalls to be enjoyed and admired and as a bonus one does not have to queue nor suffer the antics of some visitors ... ;)

Had a close encounter with Luxemburgs finest on the way out of this old farm. Didn't had anything on me so they searched for something to serve and protect. 150 euro's for not having a safety vest in my car. Got to respect that! They were concerned about my safety of course :-) Also asked me about the telescopic ladder in the car, where i use it for. Uhhm, i don't know, it didn't come with a manual. 150 faves please!
Among many luxurious and less luxurious hotels on the island, the currently closed Hotel Formetor at Cala Pi de la Posada was the first luxury hotel on the island.
Built in 1929, it has been home to the rich, the famous and the celebrities, including Princess Soraya, Plácido Domingo, Audrey Hepburn, Charly Chaplin and John Wayne, Winston Churchill and Helmut Schmidt, Michael Douglas, Mikael Gorbatchow and the Dalai Lama. I am sure that many others have visited this beautifully located place.
We were able to spend a few beautiful hours on the pine-lined beach and swim in the turquoise blue water.
Cala Pi de la Posada, Mallorca. Spain.
The famous Benedictine monastery in the bay of the Normandy. Its an UNESCO heritage site. Nowadays there are just a few days without connection with the continent due to very high tide. The first buildings once were erected in 1022 in normannic style. The island lays about 1 km offshore and is 92 m high without buildings.

Those famous words, uttered by Dr. Strange in Marvel's Avengers Infinity War, have now become true for the big blue western railroad. Today, the railroad officially filed its intent to terminate its lease with the Surface Transportation Board. We are now down to the final months of the railroad. Need to make it a great final stand.

Reddish Egret (egretta rufescens) ~ Pinellas County, Florida
A small fish just moments before its demise courtesy of a reddish egret. Looking at the fish, there appears to be a final statement being made. Perhaps those words are, "I egret nothing!"
Thanks for visiting!
Just a quick post from our FFF+ FotoWalk today. These Lava Lamps were for sale at the South Melbourne Market for $AUD28. (£16, $US22). I haven't seen Lava Lamps since the seventies!

Alguns dels combats més forts de l'aixecament de Varsòvia el 1944 contra els nazis foren al barri vell i els seus accessos per el sud. Aquí els polonesos del Armia Krajowa aprofitaren els carrers estrets per reforçar el barri amb barricades, la més famosa de les quals fou la del carrer Piwna. Els alemanys assaltaren aquesta barricada des del 11 d'agost amb les maleïdes tropes de la Brigada Dirlewanger, criminals de guerra que venien d'arrassar el barri de Wola a sang i foc. Aquí no pogueren passar i la barricada aguanta assalts amb blindats Stug III i llançaflames. Tambe fou una fortalessa l'església de St. Martí, que podeu veure aquí (Kościół pw. św. Marcina). No fou fins el 2 de setembre, després de setmanes de combats, que tot el barri vell fou evacuat per les clavegueres abans no fossin anorreats. Després els nazis mataren tothom i volaren les ruines que quedaven de forma deliverada.
Aquesta foto forma part de tot un viatge pel centre de Polònia, enfocat especialment en els més tragics moments del Holocaust i la II Guerra Mundial, que esclafà Polonia com pocs llocs, però que alhora contrasta amb l'increible renaixement del país fins al moment actual.

=============================================
Some of the fiercest fighting of the Warsaw Uprising in 1944 against the Nazis was in the old quarter (Stare Miasto) and its southern approaches. Here the Poles of the Armia Krajowa took advantage of the narrow streets to reinforce the medieval quarter with barricades, the most famous of which was the one on Piwna Street. The Germans stormed this barricade from August 11 with the damned troops of the Dirlewanger Brigade, war criminals who had just razed the Wola neighborhood to the ground. They could not pass here and the barricade withstood assaults with Stug III armored vehicles and flamethrowers. And beyond that stood like a fortress the church of St. Martin (Kościół pw. św. Marcina), seen here. It was not until September 2, after weeks of fighting, that the entire old quarter was evacuated through the sewers before they were destroyed.
This photo is part of a trip through central Poland, focused especially on the most tragic moments of the Holocaust and World War II, which devastated Poland like few places, but which at the same time contrasts with the incredible rebirth of the country up to the present day.

During my walk from Murnau to Ohlstadt in Bavaria I walked along the Loisach river. The Loisach is a tributary of the Isar and the Isar is a tributary of the world famous Danube. Some parts of the river have a beautiful blue-green color. I decided to get off the trail to get a closer look at the river. When I got close to the current I was enchanted by the beauty of the water and the green surroundings. I was all alone, because the spot I had chosen is not known by tourists, but it is very beautiful. On the waterfront I decided to take some pictures first and then turn my phone off completely. No distraction for a while. With my pants pulled up I walked barefoot into the clear water and that was very cooling on this sun-drenched warm summer day. Staring at the impressive mountains of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, I then stood in the shallow part of the river and decided to close my eyes and think about nothing for a while. It was another special experience in beautiful Bavaria where I experienced a moment of satisfaction and ultimate peace in one of the most beautiful tributaries of the world. All my beautiful experiences of recent times have been made possible by the 9 euro ticket. Unfortunately, everything comes to an end and August 31 was the last day that the ticket could be used. I used it for three months. Only 27 euros for travelling in thee months. Sweet 9 euro ticket, it was an honor to carry you with me in the summer period. I miss you already, but the memories will last forever in the form of my photos. There will therefore be a lot of pictures here on Flickr of my adventures in Germany.
Deutsch:
Bei meiner Wanderung von Murnau nach Ohlstadt in Bayern bin ich an der Loisach entlang gelaufen. Die Loisach ist ein Nebenfluss der Isar und die Isar ist ein Nebenfluss der weltberühmten Donau. Einige Teile des Flusses haben eine schöne blaugrüne Farbe. Ich beschloss, den Weg zu verlassen, um mir den Fluss genauer anzusehen. Als ich mich der Strömung näherte, war ich von der Schönheit des Wassers und der grünen Umgebung verzaubert. Ich war ganz allein, denn der Ort, den ich mir ausgesucht hatte, ist bei Touristen nicht bekannt, aber sehr schön. An der Uferpromenade beschloss ich, erst ein paar Fotos zu machen und dann mein Handy komplett auszuschalten. Keine Ablenkung für eine Weile. Mit hochgezogener Hose ging ich barfuß ins klare Wasser und das war an diesem sonnendurchfluteten warmen Sommertag sehr erfrischend. Mit Blick auf die imposanten Berge von Garmisch-Partenkirchen stand ich dann im seichten Teil des Flusses und beschloss, die Augen zu schließen und eine Weile an nichts zu denken. Es war ein weiteres besonderes Erlebnis im schönen Bayern, wo ich einen Moment der Zufriedenheit und des ultimativen Friedens in einem der schönsten Nebenflüsse der Welt erlebte. All meine schönen Erlebnisse der letzten Zeit wurden durch das 9-Euro-Ticket ermöglicht. Leider geht alles zu Ende und der 31. August war der letzte Tag, an dem das Ticket verwendet werden konnte. Ich habe es drei Monate lang benutzt. Nut 27 euro! Süßes 9-Euro-Ticket, es war mir eine Ehre, dich 3 monaten mitzunehmen. Ich vermisse dich jetzt schon, aber die Erinnerungen werden in Form meiner Fotos für immer bleiben. Daher wird es hier auf Flickr viele Bilder von meinen Abenteuern in Deutschland geben.
Nederlands:
Tijdens mijn wandeling van Murnau naar Ohlstadt in Beieren liep ik langs de Loisach rivier. De Loisach is een zijrivier van de Isar en de Isar is dan weer een zijrivier van de wereldberoemde Donau. Sommige gedeelten van de rivier hebben een prachtige blauw-groene kleur. Ik besloot om van het pad af te gaan om de rivier van dichterbij te kunnen aanschouwen. Toen ik vlakbij de stroming aankwam werd ik betoverd door de schoonheid van het water en de groene omgeving. Ik was helemaal alleen, want het plekje wat ik had uitgekozen is niet bekend bij toeristen, maar wel erg mooi. Aan de waterkant besloot ik om eerst wat foto's te maken en daarna mijn telefoon helemaal uit te zetten. Even geen afleiding. Met mijn broek opgestroopt liep ik met blote voeten het heldere water in en dat was erg verkoelend op deze zonovergoten warme zomerdag. Starend naar de indrukwekkende bergen van Garmisch-Partenkirchen stond ik daarna in het ondiepe gedeelte van de rivier en besloot om vervolgens mijn ogen dicht te doen en even helemaal nergens aan te denken. Het was weer een bijzondere ervaring in het wonderschone Beieren waarbij ik een moment van voldoening en ultieme rust heb ervaren in een van de mooiste zijrivieren van de wereld. Al mijn mooie ervaringen van de afgelopen tijd zijn mede mogelijk gemaakt door het 9 euro ticket. Helaas komt aan alles een einde en was 31 augustus de laatste dag dat het ticket gebruikt kon worden. Drie maanden heb ik er gebruik van gemaakt. Lief 9 euro ticket, het was een eer om je 3 keer bij me te mogen dragen. Ik mis je nu al, maar de herinneringen blijven voor eeuwig bestaan in de vorm van mijn foto's. Er zullen daarom nog een hoop foto's hier op Flickr volgen van mijn avonturen in Duitsland.
The area was called "White Place" by Georgia O'Keeffe, famous American painter who lived in Abiquiu.

Since he was almost a baby, he loved two famous clowns here in the country and I prepared him a little party, with these clowns as theme (if I can say it this way). He obviously adored each detail and it was a complete surprise. I loved watching his happiness. :))

That is the actual James Bond Aston Martin DB5 as first seen in Goldfinger in 1965. Probably the most iconic and famous car in the world and likely priceless too. If you google that licence registration BMT216A, it will confirm that it also appeared in Thunderball, Golden Eye, Tomorrow Never Dies, Casino Royale, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die. Or you can see the registration here -

And now here it is on the Flickr page of old Magoo - who’d have thunk! A scoop or what? Here it has its latest modification to its front bumper - a guy in.a luminous orange jacket trying to take a photograph.
So how did old Magoo bumbling around with his white stick and who can’t tell a farmers truck from a pedal cycle happen to bump into it in the back of beyond on the Brecon Beacons, how did he know what it was and more importantly, is that the real James Bond behind the wheel?
So there I was on a very quiet mountain road in the middle of nowhere when I hear the throaty roar of a vehicle coming up behind me. The road isn’t wide enough for man and car so I step off to allow it through, but it pulls to a halt alongside.…
“You’re looking very official by the side of the road” Says James Bond. It puzzles me for a second and I realise he must be referring to my luminous coat. (I later realise he must have been looking for the camera crew and thought I was with them).
“Oh the jacket” I say “It’s so I can be seen by cars because I can’t see them” and I hold up my white stick. And then, listening to the sweet purr of the engine I say “That’s a beautiful sounding car you have there, what is it?
“An Aston Martin DB5” Bond says.
“Wow” says I “How old?”
“59 years” replies 007 without hesitation because if anyone would know he would, right? “It’s the James Bond car” he adds.
I wrongly presume he means ‘like the James Bond car’ not the actual car itself and so like an idiot I ask - “How long have you had it?”
“We are actually filming here for a couple of days” says James by way of explanation.
“Are you James Bond then?” I ask with a wry grin.
“Well, sort of “ he replies with a chuckle. I expect he was being covert. I’m stood there close enough to touch the car and am wondering whether or not this is Daniel Craig or the new Bond guy driving - I certainly can’t tell, the car is just a fuzzy haze to me and the driver non existent, when he politely excuses himself and drives off. I’m left wondering whether he was pulling old Magoo’s leg or whether this really was the real Bond car and then feel more than a little disappointed that I didn’t get a photo. Wouldn’t you?? Let’s face it, it’s not the sort of thing you expect is it?
I continue on my deflated way when after about half a mile I pass a group of people by the side of the road. There is absolutely never anyone here and even though I cannot see their equipment I presume it must be the film crew. I wander on thinking they must be waiting for me to walk on through so they can do the take, which means the Licence to Kill and his car must be up ahead somewhere - and sure enough, a couple hundred yards on I catch that sweet throaty purr again.
“Would you mind if I take a photograph of your car Mr Bond, so I can see it on the big screen when I get home?”
“Be my guest” says James. Realising I was probably holding things up and I would have only time for one shot I quickly took it and wandered up to his window and showed him the back of the camera and asked if it looked okay?
“Haha” Laughs the Licence 2 Kill “It’s right in the middle”. Well, that was good enough for me, a crackshot secret agent with such an eye for the ladies and who bumps off global super villains for fun should be able to judge a photo right? And after thanks, I wanders on me way, and when I was clear he must have got the ‘camera - action’ instruction because the pedal hit the metal and it leapt away towards the cameras with a glorious roar.
So was that the real James Bond, or another actor filling in for him? I have absolutely no idea, couldn’t see him at all - but I’ll go this far……it wasn’t Sean Connery or Roger Moore, I would have recognised those voices for sure…….
A big thanks to the photography gods for causing James Bond to stop and talk, because if he hadn’t I would have had no idea there was filming taking place and wouldn’t have got the shot - and a double big thanks to 007 for being sociable and letting me take the photo! If you see a tramp in a bright orange coat cluttering up the movie - that’ll be old Magoo……

This old house is probably one of the most photographed houses in Kansas. It is close to the little town of Marquette. Since this photo was taken, the tree has fallen.
Famous Hats or infamous ones, I am happy I never experienced one of these, I survived class room humiliation though, this was found at a Pioneer Village.
