Europe - France - Bretagne - Brittany - Plouzané - Phare du Petit Minou lighthouse in the roadstead of Brest standing in front of the Fort du Petit Minou
This must be one of my top favorite places in Bretagne, I realize I must have some kind of lighthouse (or seahouse as my friend calls it ;)) obsession !! It was really interesting to be at a different lighthouse in Normandy while it was really foggy and when we could not see even the beam of light from that particular lighthouse, that strong the fog was. We could just hear the sound, it was rather haunting experience.

Indie-pop 101: Pop minus the over-production and saccharin.
Guitars not synths, drums not drum-machines. Vocals value heart soul and passion over perfection, lyrics reflect real lives, hopes, dreams and fears. The rawness of punk minus the angst, the stomp of rock when it dumps the pomp and posturing.
This is indie-pop, the question is; you comin' to join us?

Avebury is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles which is located around the village of Avebury in Wiltshire, south west England. It is located about twenty miles to the north of Stonehenge. The Avebury ring is the oldest stone ring that is known to be in existence anywhere in the world and is even older than Stonehenge. Unique amongst megalithic monuments, Avebury contains the largest stone circle in Europe, and is one of the best known prehistoric sites in Britain. It is currently used as both a tourist attraction and a place of religious importance to contemporary Pagans.
Constructed around 2600 BCE, during the Neolithic, or 'New Stone Age', the monument comprises a large henge, surrounded by a bank and a ditch. Inside this henge is a large outer stone circle, with two separate smaller stone circles situated inside the centre of the monument. Its original purpose is not known, although archaeologists believe that it was most likely used for some form of ritual or ceremonial usage. The Avebury monument was a part of a larger prehistoric landscape containing several older monuments nearby, including West Kennet Long Barrow and Silbury Hill.

The Halászbástya or Fisherman's Bastion is a terrace in neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque style situated on the Buda bank of the Danube, on the Castle hill in Budapest, around Matthias Church. The Bastion takes its name from the guild of fishermen that was responsible for defending this stretch of the city walls in the Middle Ages. It is a viewing terrace, with many stairs and walking paths. Its seven towers represent the seven Magyar tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin in 896.
Not your usual shot of Budapest that you find on postcards and books, reason being that it has been captured from top corner suite of Hilton hotel, which has some of the best views over the city. There is nothing I enjoy more than having the perfect view from the hotel room !! So when I get up for the morning shots at 4 AM, I only have to crawl out of bed and push the button... ;-) (although that is also not always the easiest as most hotel with high floors dont allow to have windows open, so you have to deal with various reflections on the glass etc..)

We joined a group of on-lookers beside the road to Crane Flat to see this black bear on our recent trip to Yosemite NP. S/he seemed to have been in some confrontations. Notice the injury to the left side of its snout, a scar on the right ear, and a missing piece of the left ear. S/he was feeding on plants and did not seem at all concerned with us. Although it's not visible in this shot, there was a collar around its neck. Alice posted a shot of Bear #2 that we saw without any other people around; Yosemite NP; CA; USA

British Columbia is a very magical place where nature manifests its power and beauty in its best form. You just have to keep your eyes open and beautiful compositions will come themselves. This little island in Neilson Wetland is taking bath in wonderful lake surrounded by high mountains. Reflection you see is reflection of surrounding mountains.

This is Jack, my heart cat and a bunny that I fostered. Jack, who loved everybody and every other animal I brought in the house. I could not believe that he was eating the lettuce and parsley I had given the bun! Glad I got it on camera, as no one would believe me. The gate to the pen was open and bun had free reign, except at night. Jack was the best cat ever and I still miss him. I will never get over losing him.

The Grand Canal - Canal Grande - Canałasso is a canal in Venice, Italy. It forms one of the major water-traffic corridors in the city. Public transport is provided by water buses - vaporetti and private water taxis, and many tourists explore the canal by gondola. At one end the canal leads into the lagoon near Santa Lucia railway station and the other end leads into Saint Mark Basin: in between it makes a large S-shape through the central districts (sestieri) of Venice. It is 3,800 m long, 30–90 m wide, with an average depth of five meters (16.5 ft).
The Basilica of St Mary of Health - Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, commonly known simply as the Salute, is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica located in the Dorsoduro sestiere of the Italian city of Venice. It stands on a narrow finger of land between the Grand Canal and the Bacino di San Marco making the church visible when entering the Piazza San Marco from the water. The Salute is part of the parish of the Gesuati and is the most recent of the so-called Plague-churches. In 1630 Venice experienced an unusually devastating outbreak of the plague. As a votive offering for the city's deliverance from the pestilence, the Republic of Venice vowed to build and dedicate a church to Our Lady of Health (or of Deliverance, Italian: Salute). The church was designed in the then fashionable baroque style by Baldassare Longhena, who studied under the architect Vincenzo Scamozzi. Construction began in 1631. Most of the objects of art housed in the church bear references to the Black Death. The dome of the Salute was an important addition to the Venice skyline and soon became emblematic of the city, inspiring artists like Canaletto, J. M. W. Turner, John Singer Sargent and Francesco Guardi.

A shot from my archives, which I somehow forgot to post. Here is the Palace Hotel in the so-called 'Old Town Dubai', and as a bonus, the world's tallest tower in the background. Thanks to my flickr buddy arfromqatar who was staying in this hotel and who made that shot possible (as usual we had some issues with the security guard).
This is a digitally blended Vertorama.
This shot is dedicated to A Parisian Woman in KL for her great testimonial. Thanks again V! :-)

Not one of Iceland's iconic locations but when the roads from 5km in either direction of the hotel are closed due to extreme weather and you only have 10km of road open, you have to make the best of a bad job but having driven down this glorious long road to this scene, the sun started setting so we pulled up and grabbed our cameras. Ten minutes before we were assisting a group of German tourists by removing banked up snow from under their Skoda Yeti when they tried to drive in 15" snow. It seems that Yeti's are not that good making their way through the snow after all, lol.

Banaue rice terraces has been described as the eighth wonder of the world. Carved out of the hillside by Ifugao tribes people 2000 to 3000 years ago without the aid of machinery to provide level steps where the natives plant rice. And they are still in use today. In 1995, they were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Banaue rice terraces stretch like stepping stones to the sky - some reaching an altitude of 1500m (4920ft). It is considered as one of mankind's greatest engineering feat. If the terraces were laid end to end, they would stretch half way around the world.

This photo was taken early morning in the Lage Vuursche Forest on the way from Hilversum to Soestduinen. Lage Vuursche is a village in the Dutch province of Utrecht. It is a part of the municipality of Baarn, and lies about 5 km west of Soest, in the middle of the forest. Drakestein, the former residence of Queen Beatrix, is situated just east of the village. An oasis of rest directly next to the big city life.

Walking over the river bridge in Conil de la Frontera, Spain.
Meet Toby.
He joined our household today at 8 weeks 2 days old, and I'm completely and totally in love with the little guy.
He is curious, playful, snuggly, and still manages to look solemn and dignified - at least when he wants to.
His introduction with Henry was uneventful, and while they still working out the logistics of Big Dog / Little Dog play, they are both obviously interested in making it work.
Today, Toby learned the beginnings of "Sit" (nailed it!) "Leave It" (chewing on my hand doesn't make it open but NOT chewing on it does and you get the kibble inside) and "Down" (did I mention he did great with "Sit" and "Leave it"?)
I spent most the afternoon focusing on Sit-n-Stare, where Toby gets a piece of his kibble every time I notice him sitting in front of me and staring up and me.
He now sits in front of me and stares up at me (and Hubby) a lot!
Henry also learned this on the first day, and to this day it's his default behavior - what he does when he doesn't know what else to do.
It's a really nice default behavior - much better than jumping at my legs and the cupboard doors, which was our starting point.
Today's photoshoot was a chaotic disaster - but Toby had a fun, got his meal of kibble (a few at a time) and (occasionally) showed hints of the star I'm sure he will someday be.
Many thanks to Toby's (and Henry's and Zachary's and Beau's) wonderful breeder - Aubridge Goldens - who practiced "Hats" with the litter a few weeks ago!
Notes to self:
1. Hungry Puppies make terrible models (stupid me - I knew that!)
2. Big Dogs and Little Dogs (together) makes a challenging situation impossible
3. I need to wrangle Hubby into firing the remote for me for a few days!

Marken is a peninsula in the IJsselmeer, the Netherlands, located in the municipality Waterland in the province North Holland. It is a former island, which nowadays is connected to the North Holland mainland by a causeway. Also, Marken is a well-known tourist attraction, well-known for its characteristic wooden houses.
The lighthouse is commonly known as the 'Horse of Marken' because of its characteristic shape with the tall, built-on keeper's house. Most probably it is, after the 'Brandaris' on Terschelling, the best-known and the most frequently photographed lighthouse of the Netherlands. The present lighthouse was built in 1839, upon the foundations of an earlier tower that was broken down that same year. The Zuyder Zee still was open sea by then and the lighthouse was of great importance for the shipping traffic to and from Amsterdam.

Red Square (Russian: Кра́сная пло́щадь, Krásnaya plóshchad’) is the most famous city square in Moscow, and arguably one of the most famous in the world. The square separates the Kremlin, the former royal citadel and currently the official residence of the President of Russia, from a historic merchant quarter known as Kitay-gorod. As major streets of Moscow radiate from here in all directions, being promoted to major highways outside the city, the Red Square is often considered the central square of Moscow and of all Russia.

Sveti Stefan island has a 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) coast line in the central part of Montenegro Adriatic coast line. It is situated to approximately 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) southeast of Budva between Przno and Sveti Stefan villages. The pink sandy beaches of Sveti Stefan, Miločer Beach and Queen’s Beach are part of the coast line. The island encompasses an area of 12,400 m2 (133,000 sq ft).
In the 15th century, the island had a fortified village which was known as Divic; a Muslim village on the periphery of land on the Drina, which was renamed as Sveti Stefan, after the Christian Saint Stephen.The fortified village was built to defend against the Turks and became a haven for pirates of the Adriatic. Initially, the island with its fortress had 12 families. Later, the village came to be established in the 1800s, when the population was about 400 people. Consequent to the villages getting moved to the mainland, the island village became an exclusive resort frequented by high profile elites of the world. However, the separation of Montenegro from Yugoslavia saw the decline of this resort, in the 1990s. Villa Miločer built between 1934 and 1936 was the summer residence of Queen Marija Karadordevic (1900–1961) of the Karađorđević family of Serbia, which was refurbished as part of the Aman Sveti Stefan resorts that opened in 2008–2009.

Mindoro is the seventh-largest island in the Philippines. It is located southwest of Luzon, and northeast of Palawan. The island was divided into its two present-day provinces, Occidental Mindoro and Oriental Mindoro, in 1950. Oriental Mindoro (Filipino: Silangang Mindoro; Spanish: Mindoro Oriental) is a province of the Philippines located in the island of Mindoro under MIMAROPA region in Luzon, about 140 km southwest of Manila. Oriental Mindoro is touted as the country's emerging eco-tourism destination. In 2005, the Philippines was found to be the center of marine fish biodiversity and the home of the most diverse marine ecosystem in the world.
Oriental Mindoro evokes images of a genuine tropical paradise – white sand, crystal clear water, lush green forests covering majestic mountains and splendid waterfalls. With its largely unspoiled natural beauty, the province has much to offer in terms of tourism and other economic opportunities. Special interest tours such as mountain climbing, trekking, camping, caving, bird watching, island exploration, adventure trips, windsurfing, scuba diving, tek diving, scuba macro photography, snorkeling, keelboat and dinghy sailing are among the exciting recreational activities possible.
