Before knowing the weather condition of the Himalayan region we should understand its geography. The Himalayan region covers an area of 2,250 km with an average width of 200 km.
The forest belt of the Himalayan region consists of Oak, Rhododendron, Birch, Pine, Deodar, and Fir. And the monsoon season in this region lasts for mid June till the end of September. The Himalayas influences the meteorological conditions in the Indian subcontinent to the south and in the Central Asian highlands to the north to a great extent. It acts a climatic divider circulating the air and water system to a great extent. Because of its altitude and location it blocks the passage of the cold winds coming from the north to the Indian sub continent thereby making India's climate much more moderate. It also influences the rainfall pattern in India. The combined effect of rainfall, latitude and altitude largely influences the forests belts in the Himalayan region. The rainfall is mostly recorded during the monsoon time of June to September but it decreases as you travel from east to west. The snow-capped ranges of the Himalayas stretch 2, 250 km from the Namcha Barwa to Nanga Parbat on the Indus. The range extends from east to west up to central-Nepal and then takes a southeast to northwest direction.

Knowing that three of the five CPKC Semiquincentennial units were in Kansas City this morning, along with the two BNSF units over at the adjacent Mid-America Car shop, I figured that it would be worth it to spend some time to go after them, and see what I could get.
Sure enough, while hanging around the always-aromatic Southwest Junction, a few of us caught this 261 train pulling out, and heading north with the KCS 7626 on the point! The chase was officially on.
The sun was in-and-out today, and the angles certainly aren't great for afternoon northbounds, but I was pretty happy with how this shot worked out at the north end of the Missouri River Drawbridge in KCMO. I tried in vain to beat them to the high bridge in Independence, but failed in that. Welp, I'll take what I got out of it!
knowing that inevitably, I'll always be alone, alone with this, alone with it all.

The tree waits patiently as the land before it is cut away by wind and water. Someday the land will leave and it will fall. Conditions for it to live will no longer be present.

In ogni secolo gli esseri umani hanno pensato di aver capito definitivamente l’Universo e, in ogni secolo, si è capito che avevano sbagliato. Da ciò segue che l’unica cosa certa che possiamo dire oggi sulle nostre attuali conoscenze è che sono sbagliate.

La Via Lattea estiva si nasconde a malapena dietro velature del cielo dell'Algarve, davanti alla spiaggia di Sagres, in un raro momento di calma delle onde oceaniche.

Had to go into the office today; it was exhausting. I was dizzy most of the day and just couldn't think straight, but I got through my briefings and meetings and somehow managed to get through the day before retreating home.
Work week done. Now, to try and recoup a bit at home.
Yesterday I went to the store to pick up some milk and when I went to start my car to come home, the battery had decided it had had enough of winter, so luckily for me my neighbour and friend is a mechanic and he's troubleshooting.
We're trying to recharge it to see if that fixes it up, fingers crossed because with it being less than two years old, I don't want to go through the hassle (and cost) of replacing it!
It's never one thing at a time! Life!
Oh well, hope everyone has had a good day.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland, captured in September 2024.
Thank you for your comments, favourites and support for my photography. I am grateful to you all.
Take care and take photos.
A paraphrase from something I'd come across from Native American chiefs and leaders while planning a trip to South Dakota and the Black Hills. Visiting national parks has been my priority for travel the past nine years, but seeing the Crazy Horse Memorial was a place I had to visit and take in! That's what I wanted to capture with this image as I stood on an overlook just outside the Crazy Horse Tourist Center. The clouds from a few minutes prior were clearing and a few minutes of sunshine seemed to come through the clouds. With a view over the forest of trees, the mountain seemed to rise above it all with the carvings of the memorial to date.
I captured this image with a CamRanger remote set up with my Nikon D800E and used my iPhone to meter and capture the processed JPEG. I later used Capture NX2 to better process the RAW image and crop to bring out that wide eye and panoramic feel anyone might have taking in this. I will definitely have to visit this again, imagining more of the completed majesty of the memorial for another year...
Taken recently in Humber Bay Park. We have had beautiful sunny days but the winds are still very cold. Where is Spring? Obviously I understand the meaning of patience but have trouble practising it:):)
Enjoy your day, thanks for visiting and stay blessed:)

......or in my case, where to lay on the ground....
I crawled army-style on my stomach, about 30 feet through mud and water, to get a close up, low angle view of this Dunlin and a few of his buddies. Carrying the 500mm + extender + camera, plus wearing thick and heavy waders with steel shank boots, was physically exhausting. While I was hand-holding the rig, I was wishing I had my skimmer pod. I’m a bit sore, but it was worth it!
These Dunlin are really cute, and I enjoyed watching them chase the waves back and forth, especially when a splash caught them off guard. Good times!
I appreciate all comments, faves, and follows.

In business as in life we are just one small part of the machinery.
Some jewels sounded by the plain doing their part.
Then the spring runs down.....
Knowing that CSX had marked the CSX SD70MAC 4816 as a "heavy smoker" and it was supposed to trail, I was bummed to see it still leading when it pulled to the south end of the CSX Flint McGrew Yard. Needless to say it would have been a better leader in the second unit...CSX SD50-2 8607. Well after getting going and being able to see the smoke for over 2 miles away...I decided it wasnt bad at all...CSX G752-21 has just crossed the CN and is heading south on the CSX Saginaw Sub passing under the old searchlight bridge at Atwood Wye. This Portsmouth, VA bound grain load is 64 cars and weighing in at 8787 tons. The 3885 foot train was handed off to the CSX at McGrew by the Lake State Railway.
Knowing that another batch of snow was coming, I made myself do a drive SE of the city two days ago. I didn’t feel at all like going out, but I think I was out for about 5 hours total. I also needed to check what my car was doing. It worked fine until I was way out east, but when I turned around to start going home, all the lights went out on my dashboard again. They did come on twice, but just very briefly. With sunglasses, I could see nothing, but without sunglasses on I could just make out a few faint numbers. Nothing at all on my GPS screen. I did think about driving straight to Honda again, but then thought that if I took it in, then I would no doubt be collecting it when we were getting the new snow. I will definitely be taking it in, though, as soon as possible.
The very first thing I saw on my drive was a coyote – extremely distant and I was looking at it, wondering if it was a small, dead bush, until it suddenly got up and ran, ha. No photo.
Also took photos of various old barns and sheds, including several new-to-me ones. Called in at Herronton, too, just to take a few shots of the old grain elevator.
Not much at all in the way of birds, apart from two very distant flocks of Gray Partridge, a Rough-legged Hawk, and one extra special sighting. When I was driving westwards on my homeward drive, I suddenly realized that it looked like something white on top of a light pole, right at the intersection before I was going to turn north. A beautiful female Snowy Owl! A few huge truck trailers and other vehicles driving just there, yet the owl chose that pole. I was only sitting in my car for a handful of minutes, and she was looking away from me, apart from two or three quick glances in my direction, so there was no point in taking lots of identical shots. Not the greatest photos, as they were taken through the windscreen. I was SO thankful to see her, as this was the first Snowy Owl of this year for me. Very soon, they will all be flying way up north till next winter.
I don't like how this turned out. I should have stood in the middle more, but oh well. 12 pictures taken on the iPhone 4S and stitched together in Photoshop.
Knowing how much I love roses, my husband replaced a number of the flowers in our garden with some roses. This is one of my favorites! Home-grown beauty! I hope you enjoy!

I like this idea. I'm thinking that the awareness that we know so little also applies to wisdom. A brick on a footpath.
Knowing that both the new BAR GP38s had arrived on the property, Herman Shaner and I drove to Northern Maine Jct. on Sunday March 20 1966 and found the 82 just in from its first round trip to Oakfield. It was in the house but the kind boys on duty brought it out and spotted it for us!

Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.
