After our siesta at the Motel, we took the road to Makara Beach (to the west) for some sunset photos!
The road to Makara beach has many twists and turns! It's worth the effort because the area is beautiful!

Picture taken at the Public Garden in Boston. Let's hope that we're now on track to a rosier outlook, as the vaccines are increasingly being rolled out worldwide and we recover slowly from this awful pandemic.
Wishing everyone a pleasant weekend!
Great outlook!
Its better to have a great outlook, isn´t it?" ;-)))

Sometimes it feels like we are totally adrift in the world with a demented President at the helm surrounded by fawning lackeys who should know better.
"We live in a pretty bleak time. I feel that in the air. Everything is uncertain. Everything feels like it is on the precipice of some major transformation, whether we like it or not." ~ Sean Lennon
"If we were logical, the future would be bleak, indeed. But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work."

If you've ever wondered why someone decides to go on a tour at four o clock in the morning only to walk an hour through the icy night after another hour's drive, then this should be a first clue to the answer. An outlook in two ways, so to speak.
This photo of the Vilsalpsee in Austria is not the reason, it's more of a gimmick that I've always wanted to do. You'll have to wait a little longer for the proof that every effort was more than worth it for me.
Falls Ihr Euch schonmal gefragt habt, warum es sich jemand an tut morgens um vier auf Tour zu gehen um nach einer Stunde Fahrt eine weitere im Dunkeln durch die eisige Nacht zu laufen, dann soll dies einen ersten Hinweis auf die Antwort sein. Ein Ausblick in zweierlei Hinsicht sozusagen.
Dieses Foto vom Vilsalpsee in Österreich ist nicht der Grund sondern es ist mehr eine Spielerei, die ich schon immer mal machen wollte. Auf den Beweiss, dass sich jeder Aufwand für mich mehr als gelohnt hat, müsst Ihr noch ein wenig warten.

Malerische Gegend. Wer aber hier lebt, darf Arbeit nicht scheuen.
Beautiful to look at. But whoever lives here has to work hard.
ENG: A backyard outlook with many corners, edges and reflections in the middle of the Berlin district of Prenzlauer Berg. I discovered this futuristic backyard by randomly and was immediately fascinated by the sight of the architecture and the view into the sky.
GER: Ein Hinterhof Ausblick mit vielen Ecken, Kanten und Spiegelungen inmitten des Berliner Bezirks Prenzlauer Berg. Ich habe diesen futuristischen Hinterhof durch Zufall entdeckt und war sofort begeistert von dem Anblick der Architektur und dem Ausblick in den Himmel.
Interesting juxtaposition of a cattle farm against a Wind Farm. I captured this image while visiting the southernmost point in the Big Island of Hawaii and, for that matter, in the United States.
The Tawhiri Power LLC is an independent power producer that supplies electricity for the State of Hawaii. The Pakini Nui Wind Farm is Tawhiri's principle project and is located near South Point on the Big Island of Hawaii. Since 2007, the wind farm has supplied approximately 18,000 Hawaiian homes per year with a green and renewable source of electrical power.
About the Wind Farm:
The south point area of Hawaii is one of the best places in the world for a wind farm because of its exceptionally strong and consistent trade winds. As as result, Tawhiri Power LLC selected this location for the Pakini Nui Wind Farm.
Construction of the wind farm began in August of 2006 and was completed in early 2007. On April third, 2007 the wind farm began commercial operation. There are a total of fourteen General Electric 1.5 Mega-Watt SE turbines at Pakini Nui. These turbines can provide nearly 21 Mega-Watts of electricity for the Big Island of Hawaii.
The Pakini Nui Wind Farm is located 7 miles down South Point Road from its junction with Route 11.
