Carrying on with the Warbarrow theme but from a different angle. This image was taken shortly before the misty sunset last night from Broad Bench.
From left to right is Bindon Hill, Warbarrow Tout and Gad Cliff.
Bartolomé Island is named after Sir Bartholomew James Sulivan, an English naval lieutenant who participated in Darwin's voyage on the Beagle. The island is located to the east of Santiago Island. The eastern part of the island consists of volcanic cones, while the western part is a peninsula with several rock formations, including Pinnacle Rock, a steep volcanic rock.
Took this shot this morning behind the Pilot truckstop in Von Ormey, TX. The photo I took of the horses was just about 100 yards to the left of this small lake. Texas is so green this year, lots of rain.
Nein, es ist kein Dinosaurier, obwohl er mich sehr an ein Urzeittier erinnert. Dies ist ein Stirnlappenbasilisk. Nachdem er schon auf der Roten Liste als „Stark gefährdet“ eingestuft ist, wird es ihn vielleicht wie die Saurier bald nicht mehr auf unserem Planet geben.
Jurassic Park
No, it's not a dinosaur, although it reminds me a lot of a prehistoric animal. This is a frontal lobe basilisk. Already classified as "Critically Endangered" on the Red List, it may soon no longer exist on our planet, just like the dinosaurs.

Gimsoystraumen Bru bridge over Gimsoystraumen sea strait. In the rain and mist it looked to me like some kind of Jurassic Park with a brontosaurus feasting there ;)

LE VENT NOUS PORTERA - Noir Désir
Wandering along the Jurassic Coast
where dinosaurs once roamed
watching the sea ebb and flow
bubbling forming frothy sea foam
fossil hunters out for the day
wielding the tools of their trade
claw hammers swinging loose and lithe with their arms
down on their knees where the dinosaurs played
sticky thick black mud underfoot
sliding down the cliffside
lost shoes and wellington boots amid
the ancient layers once melded now slide
dogs run in and out of the sea
unaware of what is underfoot
petrified forests mean nothing to them
ammonites encrusted with carbonised soot
one hundred and eighty five million years of history
stretching over ninety-five miles of coastline
Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous
this is our Earth's history; yours and mine
imagine the amazing Mesozoic Era
when the Earth's crust began to stretch and sink
layers of sediment; hardening rocks
baking in a desert; it makes one think
then sea levels fell and a forest grew
then it died and was buried deep beneath the lagoons
and the swamps and the rivers flowed over and above
then the earth was moving and very soon
the Eastern rocks tilted while those in the West
eroded and soon the sea rose again
sandstone and chalk were laid down in the region
burying the tilted layers of older rock and then
erosion became a most natural artist
Mother Nature is skilled and brilliant that way
so now you can see the results of it's labours
in this beautiful landscape I show to you today.

Unfortunately I had a problem with flickr and with this post. So I have to repost my shots from yesterday and today. I hope You don’t mind.
When I stood in the forest swamp near Grossdittmannsdorf I felt like I had walked far back in time. As the rising sun was shining through the morning mist I could surmise like the world could have looked like many thousand years ego. I expected a T-Rex ore a Veliceraptor emerging between the trees any moment. A really surreal moment. Afterwards I'm glad, that non of them was approaching. Only a pair of grey herons felt annoyed by me and came across insulting very loud.
Als ich an diesem Morgen im Waldmoor bei Grossdittmannsdorf stand fühlte ich mich, als wäre ich in der Zeit weit zurück gewandert. Als die aufgehende Sonne durch den Morgendunst schien konnte ich erahnen, wie die Welt vor vielen tausend Jahren ausgesehen haben könnte. Jeden Moment erwartete ich, dass ein T-Rex oder ein Velociraptor zwischen den Bäumen auftaucht. Ein surrealer Moment. Im Nachinein bin ich jedoch sehr froh, dass keiner von beiden gekommen ist. Lediglich ein Pärchen Graureiher fühle sich von mir belastigt und kam sich lautstark beschwerend vorbei.
It's lucky we didn't encounter any Tyrannosaurus rex that day. :)))
Photographed at 99 peaks forest trail in Caotun Township, Changhua County.

En voulant composer la scène, j’ai cassé cet œuf d’autruche, souvenir de merveilleuses vacances en Afrique du Sud en 1986 … sniff … Crazy !
While trying to compose the scene, I broke this ostrich egg
I climbed back up here again a few days ago , but with no camera, so had to dig into the files to find & rejig these shots ( 2 shots blended in LR ) - The Pinnacles Coromandel Ranges
I see a dinosaur. Maybe you do too? Amazing how a bottle can turn into a dinosaur spine or whatever you want it to be.
On another note, I've noticed a few of my photos on other websites around the world which I didn't give permission for and the only way I can think of to prevent this is to only use tags relevant to the groups I belong to, which is why you will notice minimal tagging from me from now on.
This was a very rushed hike to see Goldstream park on the way to the ferry. Would we be late or would we make our ferry. After waiting for a rather large lady that I didn't want to mess with finish her swim I managed to get a quick shot in and bolt for the ferry. Yes it looks like an Elephant!! Thanks for looking. Kris.
Pendant with one (phew) drop - took me a while to make one stick. When I looked at the image in close up I thought the green layer looked like frog spawn. I imagined I was a scientist in Jurassic Park with frozen frog eggs and suddenly to my horror they started to thaw.
The pendant is 1 1/2 inches long.
