Is it bad luck to photograph under a ladder? Trail #3 through Rocky Hollow requires going up (or down) three ladders.

This is a better photography of the this species than the one I had previously posted. The previous post was Bird Species (# 30) that I photographed and placed on my Flickr Photostream. Overall goal is 1000.

I continue to be a fan of woodpeckers, and I continue to chase these fascinating birds around, trying to get satisfying photos of each species. I have a few species to go, and I have several better photos to go, too.

 

I first captured the LBWP a few years ago in Arizona, but I wasn't satisfied, so I kept after this guy when in Texas this year. Surprisingly hard to get a good photo of the LBWP. I had a few shots on tree trunks that were fine, but none of them shined. This shot is a little different. Conditions were a bit dark because of dissipating rain. The bird's beak is open because the temperatures and humidity were high. I try to avoid shots during heat when the birds are essentially panting like dogs, but this is the shot I like best for now.

 

As with all bird photography, the hunt continues. A better shot is always out there.

Ladder Stile, On the Long causeway,on the way up to stanage..... March 2017, Peak District, UK

Jacob's Ladder is probably the scariest drive in Tasmania. When snow is around it is generally impassable except for all-terrain vehicles. It is a one lane gravel road with room to pass at each hairpin bend.

 

But the view here from Whymper Bluff looking over to Markham Heights and the valley below is quite spectacular. The name derives from the story of Jacob's dream in Genesis 28. In Jacob's dream he sees a ladder that stretches from earth to heaven, with angels descending upon it.

 

Whoever gave the road this name certainly had a sense of humour, warning drivers that a simple mistake might be the fastest way to heaven.

Campbell, California.

Art installation by Billi Thanner in the Stephansdom. The neon gold luminous ladder starts from the baptistery inside the cathedral, "pierces" the vault and continues outside to the top of the south tower. The light installation has been on display since Easter and will be until the end of May.

 

""Vielleicht verleiht ... eine leuchtende Himmelsleiter am Kirchturm Zuversicht, dass es eine Auferstehung aus der Pandemie geben wird", heißt es in einem dreiseitigen Bericht in der ansonsten kirchendistanzierten Wiener Stadtzeitung "Falter" (31.3.) über Thanners Kunstinstallation und weitere Realisierungen moderner Kunst in Gotteshäusern." www.erzdioezese-wien.at/site/home/nachrichten/article/929...

Ladder Canyon is not far from the Salton Sea in California. The Canyons steep walls are easily scaled due to several ladders and ropes that have been set up along the trails.

Where will my today's job?

The precipitous hairpins of Jacob’s Ladder make up one of the most dangerous stretches of road in Australia. Constructed in 1963 the road winds its way up between a break in the walls of dolerite to an extensive plateau above 1,200 metres (3,900 ft) altitude that makes up Ben Lomond. The highest spur on the plateau itself is Legges Tor, at 1,572 metres (5,157 ft). Ben Lomond is located east of Launceston in the Ben Lomond National Park, Tasmania. Australia

River Tummel Pitlochry, fish ladder

The Pitlochry fish ladder is a fish ladder next to the Pitlochry Power Station on the River Tummel near Pitlochry that allows salmon to travel upstream during the breeding season.

The Ladder-backed Woodpecker: daily gazebo inspections, tapping concerts on request, and complimentary holes with every visit.

"Stay on the path" said they.

 

"Humbug" said I. "If I did that, I wouldn't have gotten this shot".
