Nature
Nature, mountains, lakes, rivers, flowers, there is nothing so wonderful and close to happiness than to contemplate the places that nature offers us, and in addition to enjoying them, keep those images in my old camera to remember them again when I'm no longer there, where the silence was heard
This is one of the places I go to regularly, it is located in the province of Zamora, and it is a Biosphere Reserve, Parque de las Lagunas de Sanabria.
La Naturaleza
La Naturaleza , las montañas, los lagos , los rios , las flores, no hay nada tan maravilloso y cercano a la felicidad que contemplar los parajes que nos brinda la naturaleza, y ademas de disfrutarlos guardar esas imagenes en mi vieja cámara para volver a recordarlos cuando ya no este allí, donde se escuchaba el silencio.
Este es uno de los lugares a los que acudo con asiduidad, se encuentra en la provincia de Zamora, y es Reserva de la Biosfera, Parque de las Lagunas de Sanabria.
The city centre offers many possibilities for a real voyage of discovery. A city tour takes you along the harbours, the six highest mills in the world, and distilleries and malthouses. You can also follow the footsteps of Saint Liduina, one of the most famous Dutch saints, by admiring her beautiful relics, located in the Liduina Basiliek. The museums, galleries, workshops and specialty shops are definitely worth a visit.
Moreover, throughout the year, the city centre is the backdrop for a large number of public events and has wonderful parks to settle on. Schiedam can also be discovered from the water: from April till October you can take a tour on the Fluisterboot. There are also various mooring points for cruises in the city centre.
Drenching of the Model Boating Pond in Parliament Hill exposed a long forgotten car from the 70's or 80's.
May need a little attention here and there but the tyres are still in pretty good nick and comes with a full tank. First reasonable offer will secure. Call now to reserve. :-))
The Pine Warblers offer a welcomed splash of color during the drab winter months.
Fortunately for us and them they seem to enjoy almost all the food we offer from the suet, seed cakes, meal worms and hot meats. When one feeder runs out they always have a back up!
Oh, and they're awfully cute, too!
Blue-gray gnatcatchers are, without a doubt, one of the most special and entertaining birds the US has to offer. With a pretty sky-blue back contrasting with a paler shade of blue, along with white and black, they boast what I think is one of the more underrated color combinations when it comes to Neotropical migrants, and I’m sure they know it because they sure like to flip those tails around (kidding, that’s a foraging technique). That isn’t the only thing about them that’s underrated; males are pretty great songsters too, emitting an intricate series of what is both their own little babbles and little phrases of other species songs. I even found yesterday that they are able to mimic new vocalizations on the spot. Unfortunately, these guys have the luck of returning earlier than the warblers, and they only get two weeks of fame before what many people consider the real show falls upon our forests. That’s okay, though- they get right to pairing up and nest-building and have fledged young by the end of June, so I think they couldn’t care less about how much attention we pay to them.

I don’t feel sad at all looking at this abandoned shed as I often do with photos of run-down places.
I’d like to think maybe with a better option, its owner had moved to a better place for a happier life.
And the dilapidated shed is still standing there not as a pitiful sight but a memory of what used to be...

From in and out and still somehow,
Its clouds illusions I recall,
I really dont know clouds at all"

One of the most beautiful songs ever written I think, but for me, I love the outstanding version recorded by the inimitable Judy Collins the best of all. It "destroys" me every time I hear it.
Please do give it a listen.

The scenery along Lake Superior is some of the best on offer in Canada, the Lake is the world’s biggest in land area at 82,ooo+ square kilometers and third biggest in water volume it is roughly the size of Austria. The Ojibwe the Native people that lived here for millennia named the lake “Gichi-gam” meaning great sea and to most it would have appeared that way, the lake is fed by over 200 rivers and this is one of them called Sand River.
Around 150kms north of Sault Ste. Marie on hwy 17 lies the Pinguisibi river it is the Ojibwa name for the Sand River meaning fine white sand river, it is completely contained in the Lake Superior Provincial Park and offers a great hiking trail with some interesting canoeing if you don’t mind portages. Also located here is the Pinguisibi Trail it is a 6 kilometer hike along the Sand River following the rivers right bank to its source lake or you can just venture as far as I was interested in, the upper falls which you can just see in the distance at the center of the frame.
I took this on Sept 21, 2021 with my D850 and Tamron 24-70 f2.8 G2 Lens at 24mm, 1/50s, f11 ISO 64 processed in LR, PS +Topaz ,and DXO

During courtship/bonding in the breeding season, male bee-eaters offer insect 'snacks' to females. Here on the branch are two males, left and middle (with the dragonfly) and the female to the right. Bothe sexes are alike with this species but females can often be separated from males by body size...but not always.
These migratory birds can be found as far north as Finland and as far south as South Africa, extending east into some Asiatic countries too. Most commonly, European Bee-eaters will breed and nest in southern Europe, then migrate south during autumn and winter.
European bee-eaters live for five to six years. The difficulties of migration and avoiding predators along the way affect every bird. Bee-eaters today also find it harder to find food, as there are fewer insects around as a result of pesticides.

I took this a couple of days ago and didn't really like it from an artistic point of view. I was going to put it on my growing reject pile when various people nagged me to post it, so here it is in all its glory. This image is actually the fault of Akira, who dared me after suggesting the theme, and Imokon who also dared me. Kore is the owner of the legs and happily enjoying the view.

This cavern offers a completely ride-through cave experience on propane-powered Jeep-drawn trams.
Fantastic Caverns was discovered in 1862 by an Ozarks farmer -- or more precisely, by his dog, who crawled through a small entrance in a hillside. It wasn't until five years after its discovery that the first exploration of Fantastic Caverns took place: twelve women from Springfield, answering a newspaper ad seeking explorers, ventured into the cave. Fantastic Caverns is one of more than 7,300 documented caves in Missouri, and more are still being discovered. Missouri is called The Cave State.

“When fortune calls, offer her a chair”....Thanks Rita for your testimonial!
I want to take a moment and celebrate all my Flickr contacts as well - I chose to photograph a section of my kitchen chair (above) as a symbol of the friendship I have with most of you. The strands represent all of you, coming together to form a single point of strength and every day providing me with support and most of all encouragement. As with the chair, every strand counts - from the most timid but consistent "fave" (you know who you are) to the most flamboyant award giver (you know who you are too!). Please know that all this support combined has helped to up my quality and has stirred my imagination to a degree I never thought possible. We must learn to trust what we see and photograph it in the best possible way. Thank you and here's to quality, good fortune and honest opinions!

Nestled in the southern Green Mountains of Vermont, the Lye Brook Wilderness offers a wild escape. Carved by Lye Brook, the landscape here ranges from dramatic cliffs to serene ponds and bogs. Hikers can explore a network of trails, including a portion of the famed Appalachian Trail. Lush forests with vibrant northern hardwoods like maple and birch cover much of the area, while remnants of old logging railroads hint at the wilderness's past. Lye Brook Falls, a cascading waterfall, is a popular destination, but the true beauty of this wilderness lies in its untamed spirit.

The first Monday of October is World Day of Bullying Prevention. This happens in schools, online, and even here on Flickr and SL. This post was inspired by Dax's song Joker.
So what's your excuse, what helps you sleep?
You leave a negative comment
Not knowing that what you sow, you will reap
I bet you smile when you post, thinking you're hurting me
But you see the way the brain works
You become what you speak
I need peace, but y'all can't offer that
I held my ground, I didn't sell my soul
I said f the fame, y'all can't take that offer back
F a shelf, you can't take me off the rack
All the fame is not worth a heart attack
You're insane, you're in pain, I can tell by what you're saying
But my bad, I forgot you were fragile
I forgot someone who doesn't even know me told you I'm an ahole
I forgot that I'm a villain
I forgot that I've always spread positivity, but you think I didn't
I forgot that hatred stems from people who hate their own existence
I forgot I'm better off alone
I forgot I care for everyone's happiness, but forget about my own
I forget I spend every waking second on my phone-
Come join my circus, I'm recruiting
I'm taking everyone who passes judgement
Bitch, that's including everyone who thinks it's so amusing
To put me down while I'm pursuing
The keyboard warriors that live online
Behind a screen that's just an illusion
Come, come, come, come join my circus
Waterloo Bridge offers probably one of the best views of the Square Mile in London. This is the small area from which the whole city eventually grew. In front we have Blackfriars Bridge spanning the River Thames.

Vanuatu consists of 83 islands and has much to offer; active volcanoes, tropical beaches, dense rainforests, a very rich culture and amazingly friendly people. Of the several islands I visited, the island of Tanna has undoubtedly made the biggest impression on me. The whole island is covered with black volcanic ash deposited by Mount Yasur, an active volcano that has been erupting almost continuously for more than 800 years.
My accommodation on the island consists of a treehouse not far from Mount Yasur. The treehouse is hidden in thick forest, just high enough to be able to see the volcano through the foliage. I can hear its rumbling all day, and from my bed at night, I can see it shooting red burning lava high into the air.
The view on the other hand is almost equally impressive. Several times there appears a rainbow above the with rainforest covered hills. Together with the dull rumbling of the volcano, the swallows flying around, the deep black soil covered with large tree ferns and the chickens scratching around the forest floor this makes for a special, almost prehistoric feel.

Machu Picchu 20221127
Machu Picchu not only offers the visitor the view of the temples and stone houses that are on its cusp, but also gives a look of its terraces and irrigation systems, which give a unique personality to the Incan citadel and its surroundings.
The Functions of the Platforms
These constructions are wide steps built on the mountains’s slopes that allowed the Incas to gain land in order to develop agriculture adapted to the landscape.
Without a doubt, creating great steps meant a great effort, but without these, the constant rains, the humidity of the environment and the steepness of the area would have triggered large landslides that would have destroyed the ruins of Machu Picchu.
This terrace system fulfills three main functions:
Containment: These constructions prevented the land’s erosion from creating landslides when carrying out the construction of cities, houses and temples.
Agriculture: Through the construction of these platforms, the Incas expanded the amount of land used for agricultural activity. These terraces allowed to take advantage of the rainwater as a source of crop irrigation directly from channels that connected each of the levels. Nowadays, crops are not cultivated anymore to maintain their integrity, due to the condition of World Heritage of Machu Picchu.
Ceremonial centers: these finer and more extensive construction platforms were intended to decorate ceremonial and/or administrative centers.
In his beautiful palace by the sea, the Prince of the Peacocks proudly shows his betrothed, Princess Petunia his prized pet parrot, and offers her a posy of pretty petunias.
The theme for “Smile on Saturday” for the 20th of July is “P… in the picture”, where the image can be anything, but must contain something that begins with the letter P. That left me lots of choices. I had a few runners-up that were photographed first, such as a peridot and pearl pin, and my beloved Paddington bear, but in the end the Playmobil won out because I could include multiple items beginning with the letter P: prince, princess, peacocks, parrots, a perch, a posy of petunias, and even for those of you who are very observant, a grey pigeon amongst the white and blue doves. Even the background is a P for it is made of paper, as is the floor, which is patterned, and since everything else in this picture is Playmobil, I would say that it is practically perfect for the theme! I hope you think so too, and that it brings a smile to your face!
Playmobil is a line of toys produced by the Brandstätter Group, headquartered in Zirndorf, Germany. Production began in 1974. Playmobil began to be sold worldwide in 1975, and by 2009, approximately 2.2 billion Playmobil figures had been sold. The signature Playmobil toy is a 7.5 cm tall human figure with a particular smiling face. A wide range of accessories, buildings and vehicles, as well as many sorts of animals, are also part of the Playmobil line. Playmobil toys are produced in themed series of sets as well as individual special figures and playsets. New products and product lines developed by a 50-strong development team are introduced frequently, and older sets are discontinued. Promotional and one-off products are sometimes produced in very limited quantities. These practices have helped give rise to a sizeable community of collectors.
Choices, choices. With guaranteed sun today it offered a wealth of possibilities - and that was just on the Yarmouth branch itself for this LSL charter replaying the summer Saturdays of old when 40s worked the Newcastle - Yarmouth and the Manchester - Skegness. The Inter-City liveried air-conditioned Mark 3 stock mated to the old warrior was definitely not a match of yore though. The glorious weather made the 6 mile round hike to get here worthwhile and only two other photographers were here, one who had arrived in his canoe!

After an offer of a cab ride while they loaded the last half of the train, they blasted off from the loadout. I recall they said they very rarely saw railfans at the time. Seems I chased to the Cow Springs curve and opted to swing by Monument Valley that afternoon and end up in Helper UT that night!
Katharine Docks, situated on the east side of Tower Bridge, is a tranquil oasis that offers a variety of dining and leisure activities. Despite being located close to the Tower of London; this serene location has managed to maintain its peaceful environment. St Katharine Docks has a rich history, dating back to the 12th Century, and continues to serve as a bustling hub for boats, as well as a popular destination for locals and tourists to unwind and have fun.
St Katharine Docks took their name from the former hospital of St Katharine's by the Tower, built in the 12th century, which stood on the site. An intensely built-up area, the entire 23-acre (9.5 hectares) Precinct of St Katharine by the Tower and part of East Smithfield, was earmarked for redevelopment by an act of Parliament, the St. Katharine's Dock Act 1825, with construction commencing in May 1827. Some 1,250 houses were demolished, together with the medieval hospital of St. Katharine. Around 11,300 inhabitants, mostly port workers crammed into unsanitary slums, lost their homes; only the property owners received compensation. The scheme was designed by engineer Thomas Telford and was his only major project in London. George Turnbull and James Waylen were working for Telford. To create as much quayside as possible, the docks were designed in the form of two linked basins (East and West), both accessed via an entrance lock from the Thames. Steam engines designed by James Watt and Matthew Boulton kept the water level in the basins about four feet above that of the tidal river. By 1830, the docks had cost over £2 million to build.
Telford aimed to minimise the amount of quayside activity and specified that the docks' warehouses (designed by the architect Philip Hardwick) be built right on the quayside so that goods could be unloaded directly into them.
The docks were officially opened on 25 October 1828. Although well used, they were not a great commercial success and were unable to accommodate large ships. They were amalgamated in 1864 with the neighbouring London Docks. In 1909, the Port of London Authority took over the management of almost all of the Thames docks, including St Katharine Dock. By the 1930s the only regular use was by ships of the General Steam Navigation Company.
St Katharine Docks were badly damaged by German bombing during the Second World War. All the warehouses around the eastern basin were destroyed, and the site they had occupied remained derelict until the 1960s.
The dock entrance lock was rebuilt in 1957 but the docks ceased commercial use in 1968. The remaining wharehouses on the western side were demolished to make way for redevelopment.
