Lots of Elephants are seen at Marabou Pan, Savuti marshes, Botswana.
I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.
The world is like a book and those, who do not travel, only read the first page.

Java Oriental, Indonesia
Kawah Ijen es uno de los muchos volcanes ubicados dentro de los 20 km de ancho de la Caldera Ijen en el este de Java, Indonesia. La caldera de Kawah Ijen alberga un cráter de 1 km de ancho de color turquesa por donde se fugan constantemente gases sulfurosos.
En este cráter también se extraen los gases sulfúricos para obtener azufre. Los trabajadores atrapan los gases sulfúricos y los canalizan a través de una red de tuberías de cerámica, donde se condensan en azufre fundido. El azufre, que se torna rojo cuando se funde, fluye lentamente desde las tuberías hasta el piso, donde se convierte en amarillo una vez que se enfría. Luego los mineros rompen el material ya enfriado en grandes trozos y lo transportan a la refinería cercana.

Roman era salt pans, currently farmed by the same family for a couple of centuries. Xwejni, Gozo, Malta
The Marsalforn salt pans, known locally as Il-Qolla l-Bajda, are located on the north coast of Gozo Island, Malta, stretching along the rocky coast west of Marsalforn Bay. Carved directly into the limestone, they form an intricate mosaic of geometric tanks that reflects a centuries-old tradition of artisanal sea salt production.
The Marsalforn salt pans in Gozo are part of a tradition of salt exploitation that dates back to antiquity, long before the Middle Ages or modern periods. Their origin is closely linked to the Phoenicians and, later, the Romans, peoples who quickly understood the enormous economic and strategic value of salt in the Mediterranean.
The Phoenicians, great navigators and traders from the coast of present-day Lebanon, arrived in the Maltese islands around the first millennium BC. For them, Malta and Gozo were natural stops on trade routes between East and West. Salt, essential for food preservation and maritime trade, became a priority resource. Taking advantage of the rocky coastline, intense sun, and constant winds, the Phoenicians began digging shallow tanks in the limestone, creating the first organized structures for sea salt production. The simple and functional geometry of these primitive salt pans would lay the foundation for the system that is still recognized in Marsalforn.
With the Roman conquest of the Maltese islands in the 2nd century BC, salt production gained an even more structured dimension. The Romans perfected the Phoenician techniques, expanding the tanks, creating more efficient channels for the circulation of seawater, and integrating the salt pans into an organized economy on an imperial scale.
Over the following centuries, despite the successive dominations that passed through Gozo, the basic structure of these salt pans remained surprisingly faithful to the solutions created by the Phoenicians and Romans. Thus, walking through the salt pans of Marsalforn today is to traverse a space where more than two thousand years of history overlap.

At f16 difraction is really kicking in and ruining sharpness for the small Nikon 1 system. However it was the only way to get a shutter speed slow enough for some panning.
Horno de pan. Veneguera.
En la ruta que desciende por el Barranco de Veneguera, en un lugar conocido como "La Cogolla", hay unas pendientes elevadas hasta llegar cerca de una antigua casa derruida, donde encontramos este horno de pan de planta circular y techumbre abovedada, construido con piedras y lajas, que es apreciado por su valor etnográfico.
El inventario de patrimonio etnográfico de la FEDAC -Cabildo de Gran Canaria-, lo describe como un antiguo horno de pan del siglo XX, con una superficie de 3m², valor científico patrimonial: medio. Construido en suelo rústico de protección natural, nivel 6, y grado de protección integral, en el ámbito de un entorno protegido por su alto valor arqueológico. La zona arqueológica de "La Cogolla de Veneguera" fue declarada Bien de Interés Cultural, por Decreto 39/2006 de 9 de mayo, localizada en el curso más alto del Barranco de Veneguera, municipio de Mogán, aproximadamente en la cota 350 m.s.n.m.

Such windows are fairly common in Berkeley (especially compared with most towns in the US). . . a product of the romantic Arts & Crafts movement in architecture around the turn of the 20th century. It's amazing how many of these have survived, and it's not a design that is easy, or cheap, to replicate nowadays!
Happy Windows Wednesday!
