Thank you to everyone who has wished me well in the new venture. I'm so sorry I haven't been very active here for the past week and I've missed seeing my contact's beautiful pictures but I won't be on again for a while now. It's just a very busy time and there are not enough hours in the day. I'll see you soon though my lovely friends. xx
Going like the clappers… A secretive Clapper Rail runs across an open area before disappearing in dense mangrove at Cabo Rojo National Wildlife Refuge in Puerto Rico, West Indies.
Thanks for your visit… Any comment you make on my photograph is greatly appreciated and encouraging! But please do not use this image without permission.
A bit of photoshop fun for Sliders Sunday.
Don't ask about the concept here because I'm not sure there is one LOL.
The base image was taken with an ND filter to get a long exposure which removed all of the traffic. The A380 is one of my stock one which I've used before. I tried to work with the proportions here where the wingspan is 80 meters.. Alas, the width of the M6 here is more like 45 metres (verge to verge) making the shadow's wing span approx 60 metres.. So, still a little short...
Anyway, thought it was (just about) worth sharing.. HSS.
Marsh Owl (Asio capensis ssp.tingitanus) in flight Morocco_North Africa_w_0363
The Morocco Marsh Owls are an isolated and dwindling population. So much so that they are now a critically endangered species in Morocco.
This fragmented population is geographically separated from other breeding Marsh Owls by the huge arid area to the south called the Sahel. The Moroccan Marsh Owls are in fact a sub-species Asio capensis ssp. tingitanus. The only other other sub-species is Asio Capensis hova, in Madagascar.
The main cause of their decline in Morocco is habitat loss due to draining of large marsh areas with the expansion of agriculture.
Ir hacia el Oeste, justo lo que yo haré en los próximos días ;-) Feliz Fin de Semana, nos vemos a la vuelta!
...It's just what I will do in the next days. Happy weekend!!
Take my picture and get it over with!
Notch and Jr. still come through my yard every day.
I took this last night as I was going out once again to take fly masks off the horses.
This time Notch didn't act all tough towards me, he just stood nice and still and let me take his picture. I was glad he was so still because even with the ISO cranked way up, the shutter speed was still very slow. It was after 9 PM when I took this.
Goes was founded in the 10th century on the edge of a river: de Korte Gos (the Short Gos). The village grew fast and in the early 12th century it had a market square and a church devoted to Maria. In 1405 Goes received city rights, and in 1417 it was allowed to build walls around the city. The prosperity of the city was based upon the cloth industry and the production of salt. In the 16th century Goes declined. Its connection to the sea got bogged down and in 1544 a large fire destroyed a part of the city.
In Autumn 1572, during the course of the Eighty Years' War, Goes, in the Spanish Netherlands, was besieged by Dutch forces with the support of English troops. The siege was relieved in October 1572 by Spanish Tercios. In 1577 the Spanish soldiers who occupied Goes were driven out by Prince Maurits of Nassau. The prince built a defence wall around Goes, which is still partly present. In the centuries thereafter Goes did not play an important role, except as an agricultural centre. In 1868 a railway was constructed through it, but this did not lead to industrialisation. Agriculture remains the most important economic activity.
Although The Netherlands were neutral in the First World War, seven bombs hit Goes and Kloetinge, due to an error by a British airplane. A house in Magdalenastreet in Goes was destroyed and one person killed. Goes did not suffer extensive damage during the Second World War, but was under German occupation until 1944.
Goes did not experience much population growth until the 1970s and 1980s. Then, the city grew fast because of new districts like Goese Meer, Oostmolenpark, Overzuid and Ouverture being constructed. Goes is now the fourth economic centre in Zeeland.
New districts are in preparation, amongst them Goese Schans, Mannee and Aria, where 3,000 new houses are to be built.
In the early days of GO Transit its locomotives were redundant on weekends and, at different times, were leased to both CN and CP for weekend use. Here GO GP40TCs 9807, 9806 and 9805 pass Komoka leading an eastbound CN freight.

X-ray of flowerhorn fish, a misshapen head, skeleton and the black swim bladder are visible in this image. The stomach, liver, intestines and other organs are located in the space below the swim bladder. This fish is an ornamental cichlid that has been overbred in order to produce the huge head and the very bright (unnatural) colors. Much like pugs and bulldogs, the facial bones are abnormally shortened which can cause feeding and developmental problems.
Stars still burn bright
Seasons change overnight
As we find our way, the times, they come and go
Look back in love
A new day rises above
With a wind that comes to carry you back home
All your anger, all your hurt
Doesn't matter in the end
Those days go by
And we all start again
What you had and what you lost
They're all memories in the wind
Those days go by
Taken At Sunnys!
Outnumbering residents, the town of Hanksville, Utah has many vehicles, trailers and boats, often abandoned. This boat was once someone's pride and joy. For some reason, it was stranded in a forsaken trailer park. When I see something like this, I always wonder what the story is. Did the owner buy a new boat and leave the old one to die?
Took this photo with my phone a few years ago, when I was traveling back home. I normally don'r like posting pictures made with a phone, but I found this one worthy. The beauty of the sunset makes everything look better.
and save the planet 😉

It is true that an open door sends an invitation ....
But for the curious person, a closed door sends even a stronger invitation
