Procida Island, Italy, 2017

Procida and Ischia are both islands of vulcanic origin, close to Naples in southern Italy. This little harbour on the island Procida looks like a living and growing organism to me. Found this viewpoint only because we lost our way...

this picture was added to the gallery Ar(te)quitectura [Ar(t)chitecture]

Posbank Veluwezoom a week ago on cold and frosty morning where in this shot the first warm sun light was melting the ice on the heather, giving it a nice warm orange tone.

This is one layer of an onion. It's around 1.5 mm thick. so this is close to a 20:1 magnification. Way too much for my setup unfortunately...

Sandstone with predominantly horizontal layers was formed beneath the sea that covered a large swath of North America. For example, the lower portion of this cliff shows layers of alternating colors. But the upper portion is different--sedimentary layers are not apparent, and the rock is predominantly white. But in addition, it has vertical lines known as desert varnish,

Desert varnish is a thin layer of microbes and accreted dust and fine sand. The varnish builds up slowly, perhaps the thickness of a human hair in 1,000 years. It is well developed in the white layer, but not apparent in the lower level.

When you go to Bryce Canyon National Park for the first time you will be blown away by the grandness and sheer scope of the landscape, but also by the natural hoodoo formations that seem to form stone cities out of the dust, not made by human hands.

What a view that was in the middle of the night. Mist in the valleys and only top of the treeline was visible.

Here's another view from Emei Shan Mountain in China showing all the fog and the endless layers of hills.

Thanks to Don and Teresa Williams, this Standard service station has been restored to the glory that is reminiscent of the 1950s. The pump, signage and other historical artifacts seen at the station are not the originals, but they represent similar items from the 40s and 50s. This building is located at Madison and Second Street in Prairie City, Iowa. And by the way, even though you can’t see it in this photo, the gas pump still indicates 23 cents a gallon (that was for leaded gas).
