One from the archives - taken on a trip to Tukey back in 2015. These Pratincoles were incredibly fast flying and quite a challenge for my DSLR equipment back then!
Salar de Talar is a large salt flat located in the high puna of northern Chilean Andes, at an altitude of 3,950 m. It is part of a series of salt lakes and salt flats located at the foothills of a chain of volcanoes stretching along the eastern side of the much greater Salar de Atacama. The salty flat is bordered on the west by Caichinque and on the east by Cerro Medano, is a mountain with striking shades of grey and brown, which contrast nicely with the sparkling white of the salt flat's surface. On top of that, colourful ponds fringe its shores. Salar de Talar is a part of the Central Andean dry puna ecoregion, which in this zone is characterized by tussock grass vegetation.

I finally bought some pumpkins last weekend and Tofu had the "honour" to be the first to pose with them. They look nice together but I think Tofu would have been more impressed if I had asked him to pose with an assortment of steaks.
Had great lunch Yesterday watching the butterflies from the window, so much traffic with all the insects, also time for the Goldfinches to gather Sunflower seeds.
Have a nice weekend.
This is the first time I've seen a sunset like this tonight.
I wish you a pleasant evening and thank you for visiting!
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 !!!!!!
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.

“The most incredible architecture
Is the architecture of Self,
which is ever changing, evolving, revolving and has unlimited beauty and light inside which radiates outwards for everyone to see and feel.
With every in breathe
you are adding to your life
and every out breathe you are releasing what is not contributing to your life.
Every breathe is a re-birth.” - Allan Rufus, The Master's Sacred Knowledge

Roccasecca dei Volsci (LT) surmounted by an incredible wonderful cloud. At the foot of the town a quarry marks the mountain in an unmistakable way. The photo was taken by the Loggia dei Mercanti of Maenza. The Volsci, was a people that opposed the Roman Republic in the fourth century. a.c.
It is no coincidence that this incredibly beautiful, fragrant and useful plant is called a wild rose. A close relative of the most beautiful flower on earth, the rose hip also has thorns, but is also rich in vitamin C and other useful microelements.
The name “rose hips” is used for wild or unmodified rose species. In Russia today there are up to 100 species of rose hips, and not all of them are equally useful, so some of them are used for decorative purposes. Under natural conditions, wild roses grow on mountain slopes, in river valleys, and in fields there are several dozen varieties of the plant. Unpretentious and cold-resistant ornamental rose hips can often be seen as hedges in country houses. Certain types of wild rose are used to make jam, jam and candied fruits.
The healing properties of rose hips have been known since ancient times. Almost all parts of rose hips are used for medicinal and preventive purposes, but the fruits are considered the most useful. This is explained by the high content of vitamin C in them; its concentration here is higher than in black currants and lemon. Wild rose fruits also boast a variety of biologically active substances.
The most popular among medicinal types of rose hips is traditionally considered to be May rose hips. The fruits of needle, Dahur, Kokand, small-flowered rose hips and some other plant species are also used for medicinal purposes.
dedicated to geneviève, whose photos of the most incredible places ever have inspired both awe and sharing. all these were taken almost a year ago (30 dec 09) during a really short visit to my favorite little sea, near mom's borntown in córdoba, argentina.
The interesting thing about waterfalls is how ephemeral they are. This 215' plunge at Taughannock is less than 10,000 years old and will one day cease to exist once it erodes the rock further back. The only constant is change - something you begin to appreciate when you watch an Ice Age waterfall erode through the bottom of a 360 million year old tropical ocean. And here I stand getting to appreciate the gulf of time that separates yet connects us all...
