Found in the forest, when I was walking with my dog. It grew just by the path :)
The birch bolete (Leccinum scabrum), commonly known also as the rough-stemmed bolete or scaber stalk, is an edible mushroom in the family Boletaceae. The birch bolete is widespread in Europe, in the Himalayas in Asia, and elsewhere in the Northern Hemisphere, occurring only in mycorrhizal association with birch trees. It fruits from June to October. This mushroom is also becoming increasingly common in Australia and New Zealand where it is likely introduced. Leccinum scabrum is found in mycorrhiza with birch trees. The birch bolete is edible and is especially enjoyable pickled in brine or vinegar. It is used also in mixed mushroom dishes, fried or steamed.

Pierwszy grzybek znaleziony w tym roku, podczas spaceru z psicą po lesie. Rósł prawie na ścieżce, więc nie dało się go nie zauważyć :)
Koźlarz babka (Leccinum scabrum) – gatunek grzybów z rodziny borowikowatych. Występuje na całej półkuli północnej. Na Półwyspie Skandynawskim sięga po 66o szerokości geograficznej. Na półkuli południowej podano jego występowanie tylko w Australii i Nowej Zelandii. W Europie Środkowej jest pospolity. Również w Polsce występuje pospolicie od lata do jesieni. Rośnie na ziemi, w liściastych oraz mieszanych, często także poza lasem. Rośnie wyłącznie pod brzozami, tworzy bowiem z nimi mikoryzę.
As darkness descends over the Front Range of the Canadian Rockies, a biting wind howls fiercely off Pincher Ridge, a stark reminder that despite the date on the calendar, winter is fast approaching. Amid the brewing storm, Canadian Pacific EMD SD70ACU 7023—a proud member of CP’s distinguished military unit fleet—charges forward with relentless strength toward the Waterton Gas Plant at Pecten, Alberta.
Spring feels like it is finally here to stay, as numerous patches of the pink and white wildflower are appearing.

It's not really visible but this toadlet sat on a sand path in the dunes. It looks like it has been buried in sand.
This is one from the archive...from 2013, exactly! I was in a camera store trying out a lens, if I remember correctly, when this photogenic subject appeared!

After the festivities have wrapped up and under the setting sun, Canadian Pacific 40B (the Canada 150 Train) prepares to make a reverse move into Aberdeen Yard on the north end of town. CP exemplified that, even in 2017, railroads still have a magic about them.

I know I promised photos from yesterday's snowstorm, but I haven't had time to process them yet and I already had this one all ready to post! I posted a version of this photo months ago, but this one is brighter and I love the contrast of the colors in this version.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.
Glasgow 22 provides an interesting example of a traditional four wheeled tramcar, of which there are several at Crich
South Georgia is a remote and inhospitable island, 864 miles from the Falklands. Rising steeply from the sea, South Georgia is rugged and mountainous, and home to over 100,000 king penguins.
The king penguin is the second largest species of penguin. In size it is second only to the emperor penguin. An adult king penguin stands at 70 to 100 cm (28 to 39 in) tall and weighs from 9.3 to 18 kg (21 to 40 lb). The chicks are completely covered in brown feathers and they often live in group with other chicks, a so called creche. These youngsters are particularly curious, which is great for photography.
There are very few places on this planet where the wildlife is not afraid of people, and this is by far the most impressive one. South Georgia is covered in wildlife, and it’s all extremely relaxed. The reason for this is that people have not hunted here and have not fed the wildlife here. These are the two main causes for a disturbed relationship between wildlife and humans. Tourism to South Georgia is highly regulated, and this is a good thing. Mankind has a tendency to f*** up nature wherever they go, so we should cherish places like this and protect it from the destructive powers of homo sapiens.
To walk around here is nothing short of spectacular. When we got close to a large penguin rookery, I simply lay down flat on my stomach and the wildlife was coming to me. A welcome change for a wildlife photographer. This young king penguin chick was very curious and came close enough for me to use my 14-24.

I would've liked to have spent much more time exploring New Mexico during my trip to California. We arrived in Amarillo Texas at about 2AM the previous night, before getting a room at 4AM at a disgusting motel. The area wasn't as dog friendly as I expected. The next morning brought in colder temperatures, increased winds and and scattered showers.
I tried to pull over whenever I got a chance but winds over 40mph in freezing temperatures just isn't all that easy to deal with. We hovered around Rt 66 and I-40 since it seemed like the sky would open at any second but I wanted to explore some. By late afternoon, the dark skies basically smothered the remaining bit of sunlight and it seemed pretty clear I was running out of time to shoot since the winds forced me to use extremely quick shutter speeds.
Within an hour or so of leaving this road, it began to snow. The winds would push this snow between either side of the road making conditions extremely tough. The car would drift with very little visibility and I had to maintain 75mph to keep up with the others who didn't seem to care about the weather. It didn't take me long to decide to get off in Gallup for the evening. Scotch and I finally got a good night sleep.
