An incredibly beautiful woodpecker that is found in the Himalayan forests and maybe a few other pockets in the country. It has a rich yellow and green mixed color which I found to be spectacular. The bird is also quite large compared to many other woodpeckers I have seen. The behaviours are similar to the others, but then these birds do come to the ground. We have sighted them foraging on the lower canopies and sometimes middle canopy unlike a few which are exclusive to the higher canopy.
There is another Lesser Yellownape as well which I was fortunate enough to sight and shoot. Both are amazingly beautiful! The differences are clear, but both share the same color and feather patterns except for a patch of red for the Lesser Yellownape on the crown.
Many thanks in advance for the faves and feedback.
This is for my friend Michelle for her wonderful testimonial,

"A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety." - Ansel Adams
This moment of Show Jumping Championship I captured in Spruce Meadows Equestrian Facility in Calgary, Alberta. Canada.
The magnificent hummingbird is larger than some of the other species but certainly not the largest. What is a challenge is to capture his beauty because if the light is not hitting him straight on you would never see these amazing colors. I have been photographing them for years and this is probably the one that best shows off his beauty !! I truly love him and the white around the eye is one of his distinguishing features !!
Wishing you a great evening and a very blessed one !!!!!!
It was an incredibly beautiful fall day. I went to a park in the hills where I felt safe by the environment which face it is almost a rarity in the city . Never thought I would have multiple spine fractures and live the "disabled life." It may have slowed me down and a few things are no longer attainable physically that I want to do-but I load up my mule (its what I call my walker) which has a seat and a bag attached for even more storage and I shuffle along and spy and take pictures.My camera fits nicely under the seat. I meet some very interesting people most of which are walking dogs and I can tell by the dogs appearance and especially its energy it is a rescue. I break the ice by saying that is a gorgeous dog rescues are the best. They are always surprised and happy to talk about their much loved pet that is enjoying the beautiful scenery as much as their owners.
The Falkirk Wheel is a unique boat lift in the world. It replaces a series of 11 locks linking the canals from Glasgow to Edinburgh. The Falkirk rotary lift has a diameter of 35 metres and lowers or raises ships to a height of 25 metres. A set of double doors allows the boat to enter on one side and to leave on the other side. The wheel turns the two caissons, each weighing 300 tonnes, while the gearing system keeps them perfectly horizontal.
incredible evolution in sl. what people made in between to give us the possibility to create pictures almost realistic. remember when i started, many years ago, and i had problems to find a dark skin. my first one was a gift of skinmaker, who read about my wish in a forum. i was happy. and now i compare with the pictures today..... wooow
"The blooms of Pride of Barbados are incredible, with terminal flower clusters showing an orange-red with a tinge of gold on the edges. Each flower is composed of five showy petals with very prominent six inch long red stamens."

Georgian folk dances impress with their brightness, incredible fire, sumptuous costumes and the interweaving of history with art. They give incredibly great pleasure to both the audience and the dancers themselves. No one has remained indifferent after such a spectacle! Today we offer you to get acquainted with the most famous Georgian folk dances and learn a little about their history:
Georgian National Dances: General information
The exact date of the origin of Georgian national dances is not known. However, it is supposed that the Georgian dancing folk was mentioned for the first time before our era.
In different parts of the country during many years were appearing unique dancing movements which have passed from generation to generation. And you will note that the dances of mountainous region inhabitants are characterized by sharp and rapid movements while the dance movements of plain inhabitants are smooth. Each Georgian national dance requires special costumes which resemble the clothes of inhabitants of different regions.

Procida is the smallest island of the Gulf of Naples; it is rich in attractions and archaeology. From the ground floor of Napoli Centro train station, you can take the metro to station Pozzuoli then get off and take the ferry at the port of Pozzuoli. The architecture of Procida has a Greek origin. In fact, the history of Procida is concentrated first of all on the medieval village “Terra Murata” and on “Corricella”, the fishing settlement. The island has served as the set for numerous films, such as The “Postman”, and some scenes in “The Talented Mr. Ripley” were shot on Corricella. The landmarks of Procida reflect typical Mediterranean pastel colours. Procida offers simply cooking and at least 10 excellent restaurants with plain cooking based on fresh fish. This simple style never fails, thanks to the 20 local fishing boats. The specialties of the cooking are: stewed rabbit (which goes back to the Borbonen who came on Procida to hunt the wild rabbit) and spaghetti with sea-urchin. Procida has 6 beaches with crystal-clear waters. Spent some relaxing days on this wonderful island. Experience the real Italy, lovely people, great views, great sand and great food.
The best way to get to procida is travelling to Pozzuoli first ,beautiful as well as other districts of Naples, by train where you will find marina with ferries. Before reaching the Island, you'll enjoy wonderful views of Faro Capo Miseno and its lighthouse. From the lighthouse you have Incredible views of Capri, Procida, Ischia, Pocinda, Baia, Pozzouli, Sorrento, Pompeii and Mt Vesuvius. Bout a 20 minute hike to the top. Paved with stone steps all the way. Photo of Capo Miseno looking over the mussel beds in the approaches to Porto Miseno.
Met de veerboot naar Procida passeren het schierieland Miseno met de prachtige vuurtoren. Capo Miseno kijkt uit over de mosselbanken bij het naderen van Porto Miseno. Procida is het kleinste eiland van de Golf van Napels; het is rijk aan attracties en archeologie. Vanaf de begane grond van treinstation Napoli Centro kunt u de metro naar station Pozzuoli nemen, uitstappen en de veerboot nemen in de haven van Pozzuoli. De architectuur van Procida heeft een Griekse oorsprong. In feite is de geschiedenis van Procida allereerst geconcentreerd op het middeleeuwse dorp "Terra Murata" en op "Corricella", de vissersnederzetting. Het eiland heeft gediend als decor voor tal van films, zoals The "Postman", en sommige scènes in "The Talented Mr. Ripley" zijn opgenomen op Corricella. De herkenningspunten van Procida weerspiegelen typische mediterrane pastelkleuren. Procida biedt eenvoudig koken en minstens 10 uitstekende restaurants met eenvoudig koken op basis van verse vis. Deze eenvoudige stijl faalt nooit dankzij de 20 lokale vissersboten. De specialiteiten van het koken zijn: gestoofd konijn (dat teruggaat op de Borbonen die op Procida kwamen om op het wilde konijn te jagen) en spaghetti met zee-egels. Procida heeft 6 stranden met kristalhelder water. Verblijf een paar ontspannen dagen op dit prachtige eiland. Ervaar het echte Italië, lieve mensen, geweldig uitzicht, heerlijk zand en heerlijk eten.
