This old thing sits at the gate to our property. It's kind of cool in a decomposing kind of way. I would love to be able to tear it down so we don't have to look at it, but it's not on our property. There is a lot of old materials I would like to salvage from it. Maybe I'll speak to them about it when I get the nerve.
The Vizcaya Bridge was built in 1893 to connect the two banks situated at the mouth of the Nervion River northwest of Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain. It is the world's oldest transporter bridge.
The bridge is 164 meters long, and its gondola can transport six cars and several dozen passengers in one and a half minutes across the river.
Two visitor lifts were installed in the 50-meter-high pillars of the bridge, which allows visitors to walk on the platform between the pillars.
In 2006 the Vizcaya Bridge was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

We spent a couple of hours this morning at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, and were pleasantly surprised to see a few flowers in bloom.

Nacimiento del río Nervión. "Un pequeño río de alta cuna". Después de un salto de agua de 222 metros, según unas fuentes y de 170 m. según otras, sólo recorre 72 Km. antes de desembocar en el mar Cantábrico.
En cualquier caso, cuando lleva agua, es el salto de agua más grande de toda España.
One of my favourite reefs in the South Hams coast.
Mix of 2 exposures using some of the tones in the sea from a 30s exposure and the movement of a 1s exposure. It's a technique I'll often use for seascapes as I find it gives a more painterly effect with smoother tones.
I told the truth in Yosemite National Park. You expose the Toxic working and living conditions and the retaliation is off the charts. Workplace Mobbing, Community Stalking and Gang Stalking are the norm here in Yosemite.

Salto del Nervión.
El Nervión se precipita sobre una altura de 300 mts desde tierras de Castilla y León cayendo en la provincia de Álava y pone la directa hacia Bilbao.

Our neighbors, across the street, are having some trees cut down. We are happy as it will open our view of the lake up! But watching him all day, high in this tree, is a bit nerve wracking.
