La Monument Valley, mito degli Stati Uniti occidentali, è un pianoro desertico di origine fluviale al confine tra Utah e Arizona in un'area isolata che dista più di 70 km da Kayenta, la cittadina più vicina. La strada che conduce alla Monument Valley è l' altrettanto famosa: Highway 163.che, nella parte terminale, segue un percorso rettilineo in leggera discesa che dà al viaggiatore l'impressione di calarsi all'interno della valle. Il territorio è prevalentemente pianeggiante ad eccezione del fatto che la pianura è cosparsa da una sorta di guglie dette butte o mesas. Questi edifici naturali formati da roccia e sabbia hanno la forma di torri dal colore rossastro (causato dall'ossido di ferro).
La zona fa parte della Navajo Nation Reservation ed è un Tribal Park con ingresso a pagamento. Gli indiani gestiscono tutte le attività all'interno della valle compreso il discusso e costoso View hotel inaugurato nel 2009 costruito sul posto dell'essenziale campeggio che esisteva da 40 anni.

Driving towards Pinnacle National Park, I came upon these trees shrouded in the mist of a morning rain. I didn't have much time to explore this area but it was such a pleasure to witness this scene.

The flagship of the Grand Marais Harbor, Hjørdis shares the name of the mythical Norse goddess of war. Take a trip on this 50’ traditionally-rigged steel schooner and gain access to both the largest lake in the world and experience Grand Marais as it was approached in the centuries before Highway 61 — from the water.
Are there any mythical beasts which aren't simple pastiches of nature? Centaurs, minotaurs, unicorns, griffons, chimeras, sphinxes, manticores, and the like don't speak well for the human imagination. None is as novel as a kangaroo or starfish.

The weather stated thunderstorms, solid cloud cover, and just awful weather to dominate the landscape for the next few days. Yesterday, while I was getting comfortable sitting around the house irritated that I wasn't going to get out the storm system broke, and while my first thought was it would be just for a few minutes, the weather amended itself and said it would be partly cloudy with a chance of storms. So, I left the house at 4pm and headed out into the mountains. At first I thought I would be lucky to get anything, but the longer I drove the more the sky broke for me. Though that wasn't the only issue at hand, in the peaks act like a cloud forest, so I was driving in and out of a dense wall of clouds through the various peaks and valleys until I broke through at last. I hadn't intended to drive from the end of the parkway to Craggy, but as a photographer, it's my job to chase the light. This valley stretched off into the distance, different mountains, and a road in the very rear of the image. I sat up there in high winds, high humidity getting soaked to the bone. Other photographers came and went, but I stayed, waiting for my perfect light... this is the best of the shots I got, I hope you enjoy.

No filters, sitting atop a wall in the one place my view wasn't obstructed by the trees bellow, and I decided to do a 5 shot exposure bracket here to try and get the best of the dynamic range.

estate 83 Artist Jimmy Caulty
“Four deserted Tower Blocks
Traces of a mythical tribe
A dark fable for our times…”
ESTATE is a dystopian model village experience featuring four abandoned concrete tower blocks at 1:24 scale (approx 2 metres high) housed in a 40ft shipping container.
The tower blocks each serve a different function in the ESTATE and contain amusing scenes of mass social, economic and environmental devastation.
Tower block 1 contains residential Live-Work-Die units .
Tower block 2 is a multi-storey high security children’s prison.
Tower block 3 is a high-rise care home for the old, the dying and the dead.
Tower block 4 seems to have been some kind of spiritual centre for neo-pagan misbehaviour.
I'm very grateful for all your visits and would like to thank you now for stopping by, and any comments you may leave. Much appreciated, John...

Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence
The return to innocence
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

they roamed the earth both big and small
they traveled the land short and tall
but in all their stories lost in time
the cat is still the ghost of the of all rimes.
shot quickly...not the best quality, but it was a fun shot!
for those that ask: Is that real? or is it edited? ... this was taken while driving (i wasn't driving) and is a real cloud formation that appeared. It has only been cropped and some levels were changed to create more contrast...that's it.
nature did the rest! :)
Beautiful swans swimming in the Vltava River at sunset with view of the Prague city and the Charles Bridge.
Prague’s swans are photographed almost as much as some of the monuments, statues, cathedrals and buildings throughout the city.
This was shot at a slower speed (6 seconds).
♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥

One of the grandest – and most photographed – landmarks in the United States, Monument Valley is a sprawling, sandy preserve that spans the border between Arizona and Utah, bathing the region in rich red hues. Dominated by crimson mesas and surreal sandstone towers – some as tall as 1,000 feet – the area is also known for dramatic, mesmerizing lighting, with the sun illuminating the towers and casting long shadows on the valley floor.
Located inside the Navajo Nation – one of the largest Native American tribes in the United States – Monument Valley is around four hours northeast of Flagstaff, near the Four Corners area.
Monument Valley provides perhaps the most enduring and definitive images of the American West. The isolated red mesas and buttes surrounded by empty, sandy desert have been filmed and photographed countless times over the years for movies, adverts and holiday brochures. Because of this, the area may seem quite familiar, even on a first visit, but it is soon evident that the natural colors really are as bright and deep as those in all the pictures. The valley is not a valley in the conventional sense, but rather a wide flat, sometimes desolate landscape, interrupted by the crumbling formations rising hundreds of feet into the air, the last remnants of the sandstone layers that once covered the entire region.
Thank you for your comments.

I keep meaning to return to my main storyline, but then I keep getting sidetracked playing with my avatars and finding new little nooks and crannies of cool sims.... Not sure if anyone cares one way or the other anyway, as long as the pics are cool, right? Anyway, this one was taken in Lost Unicorn.
A second species of alien spider has recently been discovered - the Cthulhu-spider. It has a head like the mythical Cthulhu and the body of a spider - they are highly venomous. So far, none have been seen to have wings, so we uh, got that going for us.
