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.

With the camera and other equipment again on my back, I pushed onward and upward, trying to find one last composition before I called it quits. And luckily I was able to find one, on a small meadow overlooking the valley. I tried something a little different here and instead of framing the Matterhorn centrally, I used the side of a close-by mountain to add a bit of foreground.
With the photos made, there was nothing else to do but enjoy the sunset and then race back to Zermatt to get to the supermarket before it closed...

Knowing we would be photographing abandoned buildings in an old mining town, I thought it would be fun to try my second hand tilt-shift lens. Well, there is quite a bit to learn about how to use a Tilt-Shift lens. We did not have much time to fiddle with learning new lenses so I worked with in 2-3 locations and quickly decided to use my wide angle for the sunrise and sunset shots on the next day.
In this shot, I managed to focus on the near doorframe with the intent of creating a focal plane extended to the fourth door frame. You will notice the right side of the 2nd frame is not sharp but the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th frames are decently sharp.
Interested in comments comparing this photo to the focus stacked image. Both shots were taken at sunset. However, this shot has more sun streaming into the windows creating a warmer light which is quite nice.

Knowing her, she's probably got 2 in the bush, or tree, or somewhere. I think this one of the female is my favorite of all of the Peregrine shots.

Knowing the hummingbirds are about to leave any day now, any sighting is considered a good one.
We'd hope to spend some time today trying to get some shots, but the weather was not too cooperative. They are still here, so fingers crossed our mission to get one last hummer shot will be a success.
Until then, I'm posting this shot of one taken the other day when it flew into the nearby camellia bush after visiting the feeder. It seems this branch is more suited as a "territorial hide' so it can guard that feeder from any would be intruders.
Taken through the window so not as clear as I'd like.
always searching the sky.
Looking for something
and not knowing why?
A warmth they were shown
from a star high above.
It made them feel safe
as if bundled in love.
These hearts that I speak of
are like flowers I'm told.
Searching for light
a story centuries old.
And sometimes the rain comes
in the darkest of hours.
But lighting and thunder
are as a song to the flowers.
So remember the hearts
you pass in the day.
Because just like the flowers
they soon fade away.

Knowing the light was going to fail me before the two lone westbounds would reach me here at Staples, I managed a consolation in the form of a west-facing DPU on a 1 x 1 in the still-perfect light. For the detail-oriented, one will note---looking down at the depot---that this was mostly an S train with a random cut of manifest on the end, something I have not seen much on the BNSF.
OK, start with ABBA if you wish. If that does not help, read Lewis Carroll's 'Through the Looking Glass'. There are more options, of course. But before you do the Hongi (the Maori nose kiss) make sure that you do not kiss yourself. One daylight LED lamp, double-exposure edited in Fujifilm's raw converter.
Hello
I usually make a point of visiting your site and giving my opinion on some of your photos each time you visit my site and I see that you choose several photos as a favorite without my knowing what prompted you to to choose. What would make me happy once on occasion without being on each visit is to have an idea of what interested you in the photos is it the landscape, the subject, the colors, the circumstances, format, ect. I believe that the purpose of photo sites is to exchange opinions on the photos that interest us. Thank you for your understanding. Regards Michel

With some of these odd images, I thought I would write a little vignette of imagination . . . or not. :) So check it out in the first comment and maybe there is a story! Or maybe not. :)
'The Marauder'
How do you choose to live
Knowing cancer is at the door
And its desire is for you?
How did my brother do it?
The tumour had made him
Bereft of movement.
The once athletic form stilled,
Except for the freedom of
Expressing himself bountifully
With an evocative right hand.
The tumour yet permitted him
To speak freely and move his head.
Express all he did;
At times angry over a brief life,
Grief-stricken at leaving wife and loved ones,
Fierce at their future without his protection.
Until his sense of humour would rebel
At his sentence -
At his state -
And he would laugh at the absurdity.
What courage to live.
We sometimes wailed long and hard
At the loss to come,
Clinging to each other as if
To hold him in this life as long as I could.
When the streets shone
With November rain
And the last leaves fell,
He was gone.
For my brother Jim
C. Hill

Knowing only 2% of the world population have got green eyes, i'm always on the look out for these rare kind!!!!
Without knowing all the safeworking specifcs of the area, I would assume 9786 is back in signalled territory as it exits the Hopetoun branch under train order authority and makes the final approach to Murtoa.
8176, BL31 and BL27 have lead the train from Warracknabeal to here, and will depart for Geelong the next morning.

I have wanted to do one of these types of images for a long time, but I couldn't ever get my camera to focus on what is was suppose to. Now with my new lens, it's opened up so many more possibilities. Spring really needs to hurry and get here now!

Knowing this bird was a Woodpecker, I judged its features compared to all of the adult birds in the overall family that I know to be regular, if not common, up here. This is one of only a few juvenile male Williamson's Sapsucker that I have ever imaged... or even IDed up here. The clinching field marks are the all black back and the yellow belly. It's quite advanced, but still lacks the red throat. At this time of year I concentrate on juvie images... the young birds change so fast, and quality images are lacking in the usual reference sources. ( I welcome comments and/or corrections to these IDs.) The female Williamson's juvie had been captured in prior years... it's so distinctive that its ID is pretty straightforward. It looks a lot like its largely dissimilar (to the males) Mom.

Flickr is such a comforting community. Knowing that you have many supporters behind you makes you feel all special inside. If in real life your work may not be much appreciated, in Flickr, even the littlest details people notice. The light, the tones, the focus, the expressions on people's faces.. And a lot more! Don't you all think so? :)
I'm so thankful to have so many people supporting me. :) 100+ more then I'll have 3,000 views. It makes me ecstatic! <3 Wouldn't have done it without you!
Used a brush for the birds. It's kinda obvious, but I think it gives the photo more drama, I guess?
Tagged as many as Flickr can permit me.
Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.

I am continuing to revisit some of my older images and through the wonders of Photoshop, Photomatix and Noiseware...tweak them ever so slightly. Thank you for all the views, comments and favorites...making this photo go to #1 on Explore.
I was taking landscape photos when a heard of Desert Bighorn Sheep came walking across in front of me. They climbed on these rocks and posed for me. The ewe stood there and gave me the stare-down the whole time. This was taken in Mesa Colorado.
Knowing that I have a fear of heights, my husband gets a kick out of my reaction when he gets too close to the edge of a cliff. There was ample opportunity for that as we hiked the Grand View trail in Canyonlands National Park in Utah. But I got over it and took the shot -- he does give good scale to the scene afterall!
Knowing the divine Artist in immediate intimacy, the mystic finds in the exquisiteness of a rose what the mere naturalist misses: the created artifact gives a glimpse of the divine glory and splendor. Even more important to this liberation is the fact that the mystic knows with certainty that in whatever form goodness and beauty are discovered—in a tulip or a peanut or a human face—they can be experienced without limitations only in the Father of lights from Whom every good and perfect gift proceeds.
