Je serai absente pendant une bonne quinzaine de jours. A bientôt. :-)
I'll be absent for a fortnight. See you soon. :-)
So far winter has evolved into a series of freeze-thaw cycles. Winter storms dump heavy snow followed by warm days that melt it all down. This is an observation rather than a complaint. Honestly I prefer having winter served up in bite-sized pieces. I've experienced the other kind where harsh winter weather locks down for weeks at a time. There's a real mental beat-down effect to unrelenting cold and storms. So this way is much preferable. The transition phase is the most intriguing to me. Winter storms leave vast stretches of virgin white snow in their wake. The kind of snow epitomized in a white Christmas sort of way where the beauty of snow outweighs the downside. It conjures up images of sleigh rides and people skating on woodland ponds in the tradition of a Currier & Ives print. Nothing but winter fun! But that effect begins to dissolve the moment warmer weather moves back in. Scenes such as this are far more typical; a gritty looking landscape of half melted snow, and grimy looking heaps left by snowplows. Frozen snow and liquid water often coexist, and the result is a sloppy, muddy mix that (almost) makes me wish for the return of arctic air. I was struck by the moody, shadowy quality of the snow melt as I walked along this country lane. The sky and utility pole reflected eerily in the water, every bit as grim as the scene before me. No Currier & Ives skaters to be found. Just the echoing blast of distant hunter's gunfire. And the last gasp of the feeble December sun. A perfect winter day.
@ Tully Cross along the Connemara Loop, Ireland
Dug up some shots taken during my vacation cycling around the Connemara Loop last summer. I really miss that beautiful place!

Когда я была маленькая я думала и верила, что раз земля круглая, значит где-то под нами есть другая страна - Америка и там люди ходят вниз головами относительно нас, а мы ходим вниз головами относительно них :) Мне это казалось очень логичным :)
И еще когда-то перепугалась, когда услышала про паралельные миры и жизни "Неужели люди могут в это верить?" А вот тут гляжу, и не покидает меня ощущение, что отражение мужчины такое самостоятельное, что возьмет и повернет на повороте направо, а не налево...
Но мы этого никогда не узнаем :)
When I was little I believed that since the world was round, people who lived on the other side of Earth - underneath us, in America - they walk with their heads down :) And we walk with our heads down as it seems to them :) I thought it was very logical :)
Another thing I remember looking at this photo - all those talks about parallel worlds and parallel lifes - I was shocked - how on Earth people can believe that! But this thougt just stroke me here - that this reflection of a man looks so separate as if on the cross road it will turn right and not left...
But we will never know this :))
This is probably my last attempt at a composition based around this tree, although in reality I know I'll keep trying.
I have viewed it from afar so many times now as I walk the down land all around it.
The two strips of land running through the field are for wildflowers and wildlife, left fallow by the farmer. It has become common practice on all the farms around here but usually it is the margins left uncultivated.
The church at East Meon is just visible center right.
Probably best viewed large!
More like 1019 than 1159 !!!

Order, complexity and repetition create a busy and strong aesthetic on a building site in an old Brisbane residential zone.

Energy efficient LED lighting illuminates the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge: red and white for the Canadian arch over the Sault Canal; red, white, and blue for the American arches over the Soo Locks.
The International Bridge- -a 4.5 kilometer / 2.8 mile long metal Cantilever (suspended deck) Warren Through Truss two lane bridge with a two span arch over the American Soo Locks and a single span arch over the Canadian Sault Canal. It was designed by the New York architectural firm of Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist and London; the bridge opened October 1962. The bridge spans the St. Marys River and connects Sault Ste.
