Eventhough I saw only one whale surface a little yesterday, I was still happy for the evening simply because the sunset was gorgeous. I captured this instant when the sun was just touching the horizon with the silhouette of the pier in the foreground.

It's been almost two years since my last attempt of building something cyberpunk.

 

This build took me about 2 months to complete, but from the beginning I knew this will be a "2077" build. My hype for the game is unreal. The footage released by the studio responsible for the game, CDP RED, was enough to make this tiny piece of Pacifica, district in Night City. Would this fit in the game?

 

Parts: ~2k.

Roof technique: Grantmasters.

 

Hope you like it guys!

White-necked Heron, Ardea pacifica

≠======================≠

Found this one, of all places, in the grass verge at a Roadhouse service station.

Had just indulged in a cup of Jerry's finest, and stepped out... to find the bird hunting in the grass.

Something must have flown by to send it into defensive mode, I was glued to the viewfinder and missed what it might have been.

But it followed the intruder from right to left. Perhaps a Raven or Magpie.

The sunset reflected off of the windows of my future house (I wish.)

Pacifica, California

White-necked Heron, Ardea pacifica

+============+

These 'grey nomad' birds are very infrequent vistors and always a pleasure to find.

Of all places a couple of them were in a water-retaining-basin, next to our local shopping centre.

Due to the dry weather the basin is only a few shallow ponds.

We found them as we walked back home from having coffee, and I rushed home to get the camera. But the birds wouldn't have any interference and were on the wing before I got into position.

This was a lovely evening, I was lucky to get plenty of shots as the sun set..

The Passengers Ship "Costa Pacifica" on July 15, 2016 at the port of Kiel/Germany.

One of the largest ship in the harbor of Kiel.

On this day the ship is on the way to Klaipeda/ Lithuania.

Wish the passengers a nice trip an a better weather then here in Germany!

Costa Pacifica is a Concordia-class cruise ship for Costa Crociere. She was handed over to Costa Crociere on 29 May 2009. The ship weighs 114500 GT and can carry 3780 passengers. Her sister ships, Costa Concordia and Costa Serena, were launched in 2006 and in 2007, with Costa Favolosa and Costa Fascinosa launched in 2011 and 2012 respectively.

Took a drive up the CA coast a few weeks ago, from Santa Cruz heading towards San Francisco. We ended up in the seaside city of Pacifica, 12 miles south of San Francisco.

 

This, and the next 5 photos, are from the Pacifica trip.

 

I haven't posted anything in 2 weeks--I have been so neglectful of my flickr site and my flickr friends. I started back at work last week after a whole summer of idleness. *sigh* Yes, I am still alive--I survived my first week back at work with my new crop of first graders. Unfortunately, being back at work now means that I will have very little time to spend on my photos, but I will try to check in a few times a week to see what you all have been up to! :-)

Too blinded by his rage to see these golden shores"

Graeme Connors....perhaps am taking a liberty here as sailed by a good deal north and east of this location..

 

Early one morning after throwing my swag in the sanddunes

Quite safe with all the early morning fisher people about

Woke to such a magic morning on the glittery Gold Coast took this multiple stitch pano, the skyscrapers of Surfers Paradise can be seen to the far right of this stitch...thank you for viewing...:)

 

Have to spin quickly to photograph these images for a stitch so as the waves are still in sequence...love the sand and surf early mornings.

Sharp Park Beach in California beckons for those who seek to walk their dog or catch a wave. On the northern end you will find a pier noted for its fishing. The coastal trail separates the beach from Sharp Park Golf Course.

Pedro Point, Pacifica, CA

Chipmunk perched on a sunlit rock, surrounded by soft-focus foliage

Can you believe the show mother nature put on for us here in Northern California this evening. Lightning like this is almost unheard of, especially in the summer. More shots to come in the following days.

 

View looking south towards San Francisco and Pacifica.

Along the Central California coast, driving down CA HWY-1.

Went to Pacifica to check on the peregrine falcons. Was debating whether to put a teleconverter on since didn't see anything when everything started to go crazy, at least 3 peregrine falcons were flying around, zipping behind the rocks, flying overhead, landing in the two old nests/cavities in the rocks, taking off and finally copulating.

Thanks for looking! My most interesting photos are here: www.fluidr.com/photos/markvcr/interesting
