for a couple of days very cold polar air streamed through Swtzerland with the result that this kind of Ice structure could be seen at some places on the bank of lake Constance.

If the waves are strong enough, the pancakes can raft over each other, creating an uneven top and bottom surface on the ice. At this point, the pancake ice will fuse together and amalgamate into an ice sheet. This ice sheet will continue to grow during the winter season. This process increases the resilience of the ice, as a feature of pancake ice is that they have characteristic length scales that are less than ocean wavelengths, causing waves passing through pancake ice to not scatter.

Welcome to Pancake Bay, it is an Ontario Provincial Park located in a sheltered south-facing bay on the eastern shore of Lake Superior north of Sault Ste. Marie, it was made a park in 1968 to preserve the unique dune ecology on this part of Lake Superior. The beach is a 5.5-kilometre fine sand stretch that lines the shores of which almost 3.5 km are within the park environs and a favorite for the adventurous looking for a relaxed but isolated summer beach vacation in Northern Ontario. Its an interesting place to take in and should be a stop to anyone passing by, especially for those that have no experience with the ocean as this monstrous lake produces almost everything that you have with an ocean but tides and salt.

I took this on Sept 25th, 2021 with my D850 and Tamron 24-70 f2.8 G2 Lens at 32mm, 1/20s, f16 ISO 64 processed in LR, PS +Topaz ,and DXO

The Pancake Rocks can be found in the Putai area. Formed 30 million years ago from minute pieces of dead marine creatures and plants settling on the seabed about 2 km under the surface. The immense water pressure at this depth caused the fragments to solidify in hard and soft layers. Due to the seismic action in this area the limestone strata was lifted the above the seabed. Mildly acidic rain, wind and seawater slowly created the strange rock forms.

52 weeks for dogs ... week 31 ... OMG - OMD ...

... We had pancakes for dinner last night ... Drift is só fond of those, he's sticking to the dinnertable like glue ... ánd ofcourse he just knóws after dinner there's a piece for him, he gets all restless when we clean the table ;) ... this time he had to wait for me to get the camera and he was moping about it haha ! but he nicely sat down when asked before he snatched it from my hand ;) ...

One of four pieces I will be entering in an upcoming Pancakes and Booze show in Chicago on the last weekend in February.

Introducing another of my wild friends, Pancake, the dunnock.

Pancake is one of an enthusiastic and animated troup of dunnocks among the larger flock of different species that hang around our garden. I can't tell the dunnocks apart, except for Charlie (uploaded previously: www.flickr.com/photos/pogspix/52476354419) and Pancake, who both take food from my hand.

Pancake is recognizabe because of her beautiful markings ... and her habit of being right at, and nearly under, my feet in her quest to be at the front of the queue for food---I have to be extremely careful as I walk around the driveway, to ensure she doesn't live up to her name!

Here she is, waiting a bit more patiently, on a snow-glazed log a few weeks ago.

I've wanted to see Pancake Ice for a long time, I never thought it would be cold enough but it was down at Lochindorb :)

Kinda my fav breakfast =)

.....but Not my fav shot :S

It is surprising what one can do with a pancake lens. It is designed as an all-rounder and that means that compromises have been made. And yet, one can get close to the object and even at its widest aperture will achieve good focus. This image has been slightly cropped though. Dandelions in spring.

Pancake Day has been celebrated in Britain for centuries as the feast day before Ash Wednesday, when the fasting season begins.

Historically, Anglo-Saxon Christians would go to confession on Shrove Tuesday to be absolved of their sins, before indulging in rich fat-based foods to use up ingredients ahead of Lent.

However, it is believed that the Christian Pancake Day was in fact borrowed from an old pagan festival to welcome the arrival of spring. Circular, hot pancakes were seen to symbolise the sun, providing those who ate them with the sun’s power and strength.

Shrove Tuesday originates from the Old English word ‘shrive’, which means to give absolution once hearing confession, usually by a priest. The day marks the end of Pre-Lenten Season, also known as Shrovetide.

This year, Shrove Tuesday falls on February 13, but the exact date of Pancake Day changes year on year as it is determined by when Easter falls – which can also differ annually due to the spring equinox.

Shrove Tuesday is always celebrated the day before Ash Wednesday, which takes place 40 days before Easter to represent Jesus’ 40 days spent fasting in the desert.

The famous pancake rocks of Punakaiki, before sunrise, they are most impressive at high tide, and when I was there it was supposed to be only an hour after high tide, but sadly I did not get any wave bursts between the rocks, 15 years ago I had a rainbow, so I'm disappointed in these photos, but at least it was clear, you can see the snow caps of the southern Alps above the horizon.

I went back at daytime, but the shadows in winter rule the foreground, especially the shadow of the pedestrian guardrail, which I don't think was there last time, it ruins any photo opportunity, so it's Friday, a low view day on flickr anyway, good day to post this never go back there again.

Wikipedia: Pancake ice forms in conditions of high wave activity, in contrast to other types of sea ice formed under calm conditions. Pancake ice can form in two processes: (1) on water covered to some degree in slush, shuga or grease ice, or (2) from breaking of ice rind, nilas or even gray ice in agitated conditions.[3] If the waves are strong enough, pancakes can raft over each other, creating an uneven top and bottom surface on the ice. At this point, the pancake ice will fuse together and amalgamate into an ice sheet. This ice sheet will continue to grow over the winter. This process increases pancake ice's resilience, resulting in characteristic length scales less than ocean wavelengths and causing waves passing through pancake ice not to scatter.[3]

And after I shot this, I ate them for lunch!

For Macro Mondays theme "Run"

Moulinette bay was full of this particular ice formation (brought in by a southwest wind). The ice was short lived, however, as the bay is completely clear now.

The Pancake Rocks at Dolomite Point near Punakaiki are a heavily eroded limestone area where the sea bursts through several vertical blowholes.

The foundations of the Pancake Rocks were formed 30 million years ago when minute fragments of dead marine creatures and plants landed on the seabed about 2 km below the surface.

Immense water pressure caused them to solidify into layers of more resistant limestone and softer, thin, mud-rich layers.

Gradually seismic action lifted the limestone above the seabed where water, wind and salt spray eroded the softer layers leaving a "pancake" like stack of harder limestone.

I was at the Pancakes and Booze event last night. Drinking along with free pancakes. Four different rooms with art plastered on every surface and the place packed wall to wall with people. Tonight will be the last night and it will be going from 8pm-2am at Reggie's on the south side in Chicago.

Some of the art was good, some of the art was exceptional. It has a great vibe to it. Young and inspired and energetic.

Have a great Saturday.

Life is short - so I occasionally enjoy a decadent breakfast like the one you see in this image.

Four layers of pancakes then fruit with syrup over the top.

Its pancake day and it isn't going to well for Jeff the new trainee.

At last! Halftail treats me to a full on pancake! It was a hot day :)

The Pancake Rocks in New Zealand are a fascinating place. The rocks which look like piles of pancakes were formed millions of year ago and now the ocean is taking them apart slowly.

Ok, it was only one bean, but I had to laugh because Pancakes and Beans doesn't sound very appetizing.

Rare ice that is created by continuous water motion typically immediately downstream of a waterfall.

Here at the end of the Cornwall Canal waterfall when current very cold the ice forms in moving water in circular so called pancake formation and sticks together.

Below a view smaller Pancake Ice next to standard ice water, Cornwall Canal….

Down by the lighthouse, the channel is full of pancake Ice, coming in off Lake Michigan.

When Mum makes pancakes, everyone hangs in the kitchen, waiting for a couple of worldclass pancakes!

Have a good week start :)
