Das Volkacher Renaissance-Rathaus ist ein Gebäude aus dem Jahr 1544; besonders bemerkenswert ist eine doppelläufige Außentreppe, die in einen mit Fachwerk verzierten Erker mündet - eine Gemeinsamkeit mit dem Rathaus der nicht weit entfernten Stadt Dettelbach.
Der Marktplatzbrunnen mit der Maria Immaculata stammt aus dem Jahr 1480.

The Soligas are a tribe that inhabits the Biligirirangan and associated hill ranges in Southern Karnataka, India. Their population numbers close to 20000, although the population in and around Biligrirangan Hills is only 2000.
The word 'Soliga' means 'one who has come from within a bamboo'. The Soligas believe that their ancestors originated from the bamboo. The tribal settlement is called Podu. It consists of a group of usually 10 to 50 huts. The huts are made of bamboos and dried grass. The door is a portable bamboo frame and usually 3 feet in height.
The religion of the Soligas is the poetry of their life. They do not find God to be away or alien but feel His presence in the forest, in Nature and in every blade of grass. They revere a big Champak tree (Dodda Sampige in local tongue) in the interior forest.
"The Lord of Dodda Sampige Do protect us! The creeper that hangs over the tree Swings gently as a cradle for Thee."
Traditionally, the Soligas led a seminomadic life and subsisted on small game. Shifting cultivation, coffee and minor forest produce like honey, wild roots, tubes and fruits. Ragi is their staple food.
They are increasingly being brought to the 'main-stream' with an active Government and NGO initiative (such as VGKK). Many have been given lands closer to 'civilization' and most of the forest-dwelling population have been brought together into clusters called Podus. Nowadays their homes are being constructed with brick and with the arrival of DTH Satellite Television in the area, most houses have television sets as well!

Bit more of a close up of the fort at Port Sultan Qaboos.. (Mutrah part of Muscat in Oman)
From AI -
The forts surrounding Port Sultan Qaboos in Muscat, Oman, primarily Al-Jalali and Al-Mirani, were built by the Portuguese in the late 16th century to defend the strategic harbor. They were constructed following an Ottoman raid on the city, aiming to secure Portuguese rule. Al-Jalali, also known as Ash Sharqiya fort, sits on rocks overlooking the harbor and was formerly used as a prison before being restored into a museum, according to KLM United Kingdom. Mutrah Fort, located in the harbor area, was built by the Portuguese in the 1580s and served as a defensive structure against the Ottoman army.
Here the Mobius Arch is photographed from the southwest looking almost due east. Mt Whitney is behind the camera. The mountain peaks silhouetted against the early morning sky are part of the White Mountain Range east of the Owens Valley and separating that Valley from Death Valley..
The Mobius Arch is so named because of its resemblance to a Mobius or Moebius which is a surface with only one side and only one boundary component. The Möbius strip has the mathematical property of being non-orientable. It can be realized as a ruled surface. It was discovered independently by the German mathematicians August Ferdinand Möbius and Johann Benedict Listing in 1858.

~ Finally made it to this cafe, it has been opened for a year, but for one reason or another I didn't go until now. They serve Intelligentsia coffee.
The Cafe's owner Paul Joo is a very friendly person, and he has extensive knowledge about his coffee.
I really liked this shop, well prepared coffee, small, but comfortable setting (they are expanding soon), humble, and great customer service. I think I'll be visiting this shop often. A great shop to get your good coffee in Koreatown, and they open late and that works great for me.

walk on your toes
and look wide-eyed into life
believing there will always be
goodnesses to be experienced
beautiful moments to be captured
faithful friends to be discovered.
at times you will feel
as if you are lost in a dream
but reality has a way of
putting your feet back on the ground
and so you must face it once again
the sometimes cold and cluttered reality
seemingly wrapped in meaningless noise
and empty promises
but in essence reality is warm
it is silent, it is simple
in essence, reality is hope
-imago2007
HAPPY EASTER, EVERYONE!
Taking a little break from my Monochrome Series.
If you are one of those who don't fail to check the exif data, you're probably wondering why the high ISO setting. Was taking pictures the night before and completely forgot to adjust the setting when I took this. Well, you win some, you lose some. Besides, I kinda like the grainy quality of this one.

~If you are like me, Christmas is fore-most, the most blessed day of all the year... It is also a time that is most painful to the heart. I think about my loved ones waiting in Heaven. I think of those I have loved, those I have helped, those I call my friends and those whom are my family. I think of the heartache caused by those who have left me stranded, those who didn't care to try and those who take without giving. I also thought of how resentful I was to them, of my angry words and thoughts, but as I read these verse's I thought of the many people dealing with the same emotions that I am and who are having a Blue Christmas this year.
Three Christmas wishes is an offering of healing by verse to the emotional pain often felt on Christmas and sometimes throughout the year. In each verse there is a wish that you will listen to them with your heart and be healed of all afflictions by hearing God's words.
Three Christmas Wishes
By Angel Cher
* Depressed
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
Isaiah 43;2
** Angry (Remember that often anger in just a real deep pain and not actually a hatred!!)
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is written, vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Romans 12:19
*** In Grief
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Thessalonians 4:13, 14

The Panagia Eleousa Monastery of Sindi is situated on the west bank of the Xeros river and was built around 1500, restored in the 18th century and renovated between 1994 and 1997 for which renovation it won the Europa Nostra Award in 1997.
The following is an excerpt from the book “Medieval Cyprus: A Guide to the Byzantine and Latin Monuments” by Gwynneth der Parthog published by Moufflon publications, which is highly recommended to anyone interested in this aspect of the history and culture of Cyprus.
“The monastery stands near the river, sheltered by the surrounding hills. Remains of cells and offices occupy three sides of a fairly spacious courtyard, the church itself being on the south side. The church is quite arresting: lofty, well-constructed, a ground-span of 15 by 6 metres and a high octagonal lantern with four lights under a tile covered dome - an astonishing monument to come upon in such a remote place. It has a tall three-sided apse containing a sizeable window under a hooded dripstone. Two of the three doorways have similar hoods: the immense main entrance from the courtyard, and the one at the west end. The smaller south door, now blocked, has a plain rectangular frame with a curiously built double lintel - a mid-18th-century style also found at the Tekke in Larnaka and at Arpera church. The walls are buttressed on the north and south. Inside is a single, lofty aisle, austere and impressive; in the apex of the west wall, a round window. The only ornament is the beautiful screen which divides the nave from the bema, glowing with icons. The screen itself is of plain ungilded walnut and its design of dragons, vines and flowers follows that of the 16th-century original. Part of this earlier screen is now displayed in the Kykko museum. The poor state of the monastic buildings necessitated a certain amount of rebuilding, especially on the east side; while, on the north side, the synod hall, refectory and kitchen have been carefully resored. In the centre of the yard is a deep, stone-lined well.
Sindi was erected on land belonging to a Latin overlord named Gautier de Moine and could well have been occupied first by Latin monks. During the Turkish period, it was put under the protection of Kykko monastery, which sent its own monks down. When the Russian Orthodox monk Barsky visited in 1735, he wrote that only three monks lived, the small amount of land unable to sustain more. He records that the monastery was thriving and possessed two water mills, one on either side of the river, a few fruit trees and land for growing corn.”
All comments are appreciated. However, no response will be made on my part unless I consider this is either required or could possibly add something new to the content of any comment.
Please note that invitations to groups with rules about making any obligatory number of comments or awards will not be accepted no matter how well-intended they may be.

Pistachio Cookie recipe: www.elise.com/recipes/archives/007330pistachio_white_choc...
Ingredients
1 cup of unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup of sugar
1 cup of dark brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
2 tablespoons of milk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of kosher salt (regular salt will suffice)
1 cup of rolled oats
1 1/2 cups of coarsely chopped pistachios, raw and unsalted
1 1/2 cups of white chocolate chips
Method
1 Preheat the oven to 350 F. Cream the butter and sugars together on high speed for three minutes.
2 Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla and beat for 3 minutes, being sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
3 In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and rolled oats. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture slowly, being sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl once or twice to ensure even mixing.
4 Fold in the pistachios and white chocolate chips. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls onto parchment lined cookie sheets, add an extra pistachio or two on top of each bit of dough for decoration if desired.
5 Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to set up on the cookie sheets before moving to a baking rack to cool completely.
Makes 6 dozen.

Pumpkin Biscotti: www.elise.com/recipes/archives/006111pumpkin_biscotti.php
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
Pinch of ginger
Pinch of cloves
Pinch of salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup of pumpkin purée
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Method
1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Sift together the flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, and spices into a large bowl.
2 In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin purée, and vanilla extract. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture. Give it a rough stir to generally incorporate the ingredients, the dough will be crumbly.
3 Flour your hands and a clean kitchen surface and lightly knead the dough. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. Form the dough into a large log, roughly about 15-20 inches by 6-7 inches. The loaves should be relatively flat, only about 1/2 inch high. Bake for 22-30 minutes at 350 F, until the center is firm to the touch. (Feel free to also form two smaller logs for cute two-bite biscotti; just cut the baking time to 18-24 minutes.)
4 Let biscotti cool for 15 minutes and then using a serrated knife cut into 1 inch wide pieces. Turn the oven to 300 F and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes. Cool completely.
Biscotti may be still a tad moist and chewy, so if you prefer it crisp let it sit uncovered overnight in a dry space. Serve and enjoy.
Makes approximately 15 cookies.

This Veritas RS was purchased by the current owner in 2001 from the assets of its deceased owner Björn Övre. Mr. Övre was a collector of Veritas and early BMW cars who has purchased already in the 1950s and 1960s several Veritas cars in Belgium and imported them to Norway. He was indeed well known in Veritas circles and often a most welcomed guest at Veritas meetings at Meßkirch and at the Nürburgring. Sadly his intention to restore 61651 after retiring did not happen due to his untimely death.
After being in the now vendors ownership the car was completely restored by German specialist Georg Thiele and a photographic documentation of the restoration is available in the cars file. This restoration included restoring the original space frame, front and rear axles, wheels, braking system and fitting of new shock absorbers, rebuilt engine with new pistons, polished con rods, new oil and water pumps (by Feierabend) and a 5 - speed gearbox is fitted with the original gearbox supplied. Fresh paint and seats trimmed in the traditional style finish the car.
Today 61651 presents itself in superb race and road ready condition. This car campaigned in many classic races, rallies and classic outings all over Europe within the last 10 years while in the ownership of its current custodian, himself a well known pre - and post war BMW collector and is in mint condition throughout. Needless to say that it is highly collectible, very rare and simply beautiful, certainly not to be missed.
Der Veritas RS # 61651 stammt aus dem Nachlass des norwegischen Sammlers Björn Öwre und wurde in 2001 vom jetzigen Einlieferer vom Nachlass - Verwalter erworben. Öwre besaß seit den 1950/1960er Jahren mehrere Veritas, die er in Belgien erworben und nach Norwegen importiert hatte. Er war den Veritas Freunden seit Jahren bekannt und ein gern gesehener Gast an deren Treffen in Meßkirch und am Nürburgring.
Unter der Leitung von Herrn Georg Thiele und dank vorhandener Pläne wurde 61651 von Grund auf restauriert. Der originale Gitterrohrrahmen wurde auf einer Richtbank vermessen und ausgerichtet. Beide Achsen wurden komplett revidiert, ebenso Räder,Adapter, Bremsen sowie Bremsseile und Leitungen. Der Wagen erhielt neue Stoßdämpfer. Der Motor wurde mit neuen Hochleistungskolben versehen, die Pleuel wurden ausgerichtet und poliert. Öl - und Wasserpumpen lieferte die bekannte Fa. Feierabend. Der Zylinderkopf ( Bristol 100 ) bekam neue Solex 32PJCB - Vergaser ( NOS ). Ein leistungsfähiges Kühlsystem ist ebenso verbaut wie der für den Rennbetrieb vorgeschriebene Ölauffangbehälter. Zur Zeit ist ein VOLVO 5-Gang Getriebe verbaut, jedoch ist das Original - Getriebe vorhanden.
Der Gitterrohrrahmen wurde mit Aluminium Blechen beplankt, teilweise unter Verwendung alter Karosserie - Teile. Die Lackierung ( innen + aussen ) wurde ebenso wie die Sattlerarbeiten in der ,, alten Art ,, ausgeführt. Das Armaturenbrett und die Instrumente wurden nach Vorlagen und Muster neu angefertigt und entsperechen dem Original.
Tank und Batterie wurden aus Sicherheitsgründen - abweichend vom Original - im Heck des Wagens untergebracht. Eine Fotodokumentation ist vorhanden.

She's tears and all that's blessed
She's fears and all
loneliness
She's beauty from a kiss
and shining
all the time,
she's someone we don't know we'll miss
Until her
fragile beauty
her fragile beauty
is gone
She burns
brighter than Christmas trees
Beautiful!
Beautiful!
She cries
and I drown in water
from her eyes
Beautiful! She's so Beautiful!
From the mysteries of the ages
to the men we keep in cages
and the poetry and politics,
the science and arithmetic
Beautiful!
From the glaciers in the mountains
to the waters in the brooks,
all the ignorance and avarice
and knowledge in the books
from the dinosaurs
to astronauts
gentle rains
to hurricanes
bicycles and aeroplanes
ecstasy and searing pain,
Beautiful! She’s so beautiful!
She grows
wider than meadows
and dies quicker than flies
Taller than rain clouds
beneath a perforated sky
she lies
Beautiful, she’s so beautiful
from the motion in the ocean
and the creatures in the sea
the color spectrum everywhere
and everything we see
She's so beautiful

"I learned something this evening. I learned that you never leave your pinhole on a tripod in the wind without either weighing it down or keeping hold of it, lest the lovely wood box should fall right over and have chunks taken out of it. I suppose, however, that's a different story of a different camera and not really relevant to this discussion." -Rhett

El principal responsable del proyecto de los telescopios "Magic", Florian Goebel, de 35 años y nacionalidad alemana, falleció el pasado miércoles, sobre las 23:30 horas, tras caer desde unos diez metros de altura, según informaron fuentes de la Guardia Civil y del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC).
Al parecer, la víctima se precipitó al suelo cuando supervisaba las tareas de puesta en marcha del instrumento de observación estelar "Magic-II", situado en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, en la isla de La Palma.
Hacia el citado observatorio se desplazó el subdirector del IAC, Carlos Martínez, así como los responsables, por parte de dicha institución científica, del proyecto "Magic".
Según explicó el IAC en un comunicado, Florian Goebel era doctor en Astrofísica e investigador del Max Planck Institut für Physik de Munich, y, en el momento del accidente, se encontraba ultimando los últimos detalles del telescopio.
"Magic-II"
La colaboración "Magic", una de las instituciones usuarias del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, dispone de dos telescopios Cherenkov en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos.
El telescopio "Magic-II" tiene previsto triplicar los resultados científicos obtenidos por su predecesor, el "Magic-I", en la investigación de los rayos cósmicos. Asimismo, dicho instrumento está situado a unos 2.200 metros de altitud sobre el nivel del mar.
A tenor de la información divulgada en la jornada de ayer por el IAC, la inauguración de dicho telescopio, prevista para el próximo 19 de septiembre, fue suspendida como consecuencia del trágico suceso.

Il viso androgino di Mariel Hemingway (Tracy)
"Togliti quello sguardo sconcio dalla faccia..."
"Non è sconcio... :-)"
Dialogo con Mary (Diane Keaton) nel planetario.
Niente che valga la pena di conoscere può essere compreso dalla mente
Ultima intervista a Woody Allen a Cannes
“Ve lo dico un’altra volta: non c’è felicità nella vita. Questa è sempre stata la mia prospettiva: lo penso sin da quando ero un ragazzo.
Per me la vita è un viaggio da incubo, un’esperienza molto dolorosa e non sono il primo a dirlo. Penso anche a Nietzsche, Freud o Eugene O’Neill che sostenevano la stessa cosa. Il trucco è sapere affrontare la vita mentendo spudoratamente a se stessi. Perché se si finisce col guardarla con occhi obiettivi vi rendereste conto che è intollerabile.
La cosa bella di questa città è che il clima è grigio e le estati sono fredde, il che può essere davvero utile per creare una fotografia unica per il film. Ma me ne starei comodamente nella mia amata New York se potessi trovare i finanziamenti per le mie storie. Girare in Europa costa molto meno, solo per questo continuo a farlo.
Non ci sono attori con cui aspiro tanto a lavorare, be’ mi piacerebbe dirigere Cate Blanchett o Reese Witherspoon ma non ho ancora trovato un ruolo per loro. Dipende sempre dallo script e una volta che ho creato il personaggio penso a chi posso offrirlo. Con quest’ultima pellicola sono stato molto fortunato a trovarli tutti gli attori che volevo. E tutti erano disponibili.
Non recito perché non trovo un ruolo adatto a me. Sono troppo vecchio e molti dei ruoli nei film che ho fatto sono sempre quelli di un romantico che riesce a conquistare la sua donna. Adesso non immaginate la frustrazione che provo quando recito insieme a Scarlett Johansson ed è un uomo più giovane ad averla!
Se potessi invecchiare come Manoel De Oliveira ci metterei subito la firma. Ma la mia posizione sulla morte resta sempre quella: sono profondamente contrario. E in quanto alla vecchiaia non ve la consiglio affatto! Non è che si diventa più saggi, ma è tutto un precipitare di dolore in cui ti ritrovi a vedere e sentire sempre meno e scordarti le cose in fretta.
Datemi retta, meglio essere giovani e riuscire a conquistare la vostra donna."
Pierpaolo Festa, inviato di Film.it al Festival 15/05/2010
White are the far-off plains, and white
The fading forests grow;
The wind dies out along the height,
And denser still the snow,
A gathering weight on roof and tree,
Falls down scarce audibly.
The road before me smooths and fills
Apace, and all about
The fences dwindle, and the hills
Are blotted slowly out;
The naked trees loom spectrally
Into the dim white sky.
The meadows and far-sheeted streams
Lie still without a sound;
Like some soft minister of dreams
The snow-fall hoods me round;
In wood and water, earth and air,
A silence everywhere.
Save when at lonely intervals
Some farmer's sleigh, urged on,
With rustling runners and sharp bells,
Swings by me and is gone;
Or from the empty waste I hear
A sound remote and clear;
The barking of a dog, or call
To cattle, sharply pealed,
Borne echoing from some wayside stall
Or barnyard far afield;
Then all is silent and the snow falls
Settling soft and slow
The evening deepens and the grey
Folds closer earth and sky
The world seems shrouded, far away.
Its noises sleep, and I secret as
Yon buried streams plod dumbly on and dream.

I grew up thinking of snow as a luxury you visit.

Finally a photo that I actually took this year, and one I were quite pleased with as well.
About this shot:
As usual we had a lot of snow in Norway this year, and a favourite weekend activity is going snow racing. As a result my body is usually aching and beat up afterwards, but the fun really weighs up for that. This is a shot of Ellen snow racing at high speed :-) A little tight shot but with lots of action nonetheless.
Processing:
I did a white balance correction and a slight hue shift in Lightroom to get the shot a little more blue and wintery. Also i despeckled in Photoshop, added a Pro Contrast-layer with Nik software and a Photo Pop-layer in Topaz Adjust. All with default settings. Finally I removed the dark vignette produced by my tele lens and sharpened in PS before saving as a JPG.

TRAMWAY BUILDING (Teatro Hotel)
1100 14th St.
National Register 1/5/1978, 5DV.140
The 1911 red brick office building and attached streetcar barn served as the headquarters of the city’s public transportation system until its purchase by the City of Denver in 1971. The prolific architectural firm of William E. and Arthur A. Fisher designed the three-part vertical block type structure with its striking white terra cotta accents. The property is associated with the Historic Resources of Downtown Denver Multiple Property Submission.
The Denver Tramway building was built in 1911 and held the city's public transportation system offices and attached street-car barn until 1971. The structure was designed by the firm of Fisher & Fisher and restored in the 1990s and is now home to the upscale Hotel Teatro.
The operation of Denver’s streetcar system impacted the business district in the first half of the twentieth century. Denver architects William E. and Arthur Fisher designed the 1912 Denver City Tramway Company’s corporate headquarters at1100 14th Street.
The Tramway Company, the major public transportation system of early twentieth century Denver, resulted from the consolidation of earlier street railway firms in 1899, and its route influenced the patterns of development of the city. The eight-story Renaissance Revival style red brick building with white terra-cotta trim had an attached three-story streetcar barn.
I keep trying to get this better... constructive feedback more than welcome! I played in lightroom a bit with split toning trying to get better greens without turning the water green too...
I want to thank Gary Randall for all his encouragement and help, he is a master in the Mt. Hood forest and very inspiring!
These words from an old much faved version of this shot (Waters of Life, seen below) still apply today;
"For all of my life this little waterfall was a stopping place on camping trips along the Forest Road 23 above Trout Lake, Washington... Big Spring Creek, a sweet little place, surrounded by huckleberries and wildflowers... and I would always pour the icy snowmelt and spring water over my head and take a big drink of pure delicious water...
I have slept in my truck beside this falls listening to the music of the earth in all its glory weaving its songs throughout my dreams...
Running up the steep path alongside the fast flowing stream, through the tall trees, is a stimulant of life force like no other... panting for breath in the high altitude while my out of shape heart pounds... but oh so full of LIFE and joy!
THis day the fog was so magical... I had never seen it quite like this before! so mysterious... wonderful!! "

Douz es la puerta del desierto tunecino, está situada en el extremo contrario a Tozeur del lago salado de Chott El Jerid. Pese a la creciente presencia de todoterrenos y otras máquinas, aquí el rey sigue siendo el dromedario. Hay alrededor de catorce mil en la zona, aunque tan solo doscientos Meharis, reconocibles por su color blanco, su descomunal altura, su carácter soberbio y altivo pero tremendamente fiel a su dueño. Son sin duda los dromedarios más hermosos que existen y los protagonistas de las grandes carreras que se organizan en el desierto del norte de África, incluido el mítico maratón de Douz que se celebra en invierno durante el festival del Sahara o festival del Camello.
El festival, llamado el festival del camello , se inició en 1910, cuando Túnez estaba bajo dominio francés. En 1967 adquirió su identidad moderna de acuerdo a la voluntad de H. Bourguiba , primer presidente de la nueva República de Túnez, para convertirse en el festival más antiguo y más conocido del país. M'hammed Marzougui, dedicó su vida a hacer que la gente tome conciencia y apreciar el modo de vida nómada y las tradiciones, fue el principal responsable de la fundación del festival. Desde entonces, cada año, a finales de diciembre, durante cuatro días, miles de personas, la mayoría de todo Túnez y otros países Maghrebies, acuden a Douz. Después de la ceremonia de apertura, comienzan los principales eventos en el estadio H´naiech situado frente al desierto y rodeado de tiendas beduinas. Los maratones de camellos, las galopadas de caballos árabes montados por atrevidos jinetes, las peleas de dromedarios, la celebración de matrimonios beduinos o el sloughi (caza del conejo con perros del desierto) son las principales atracciones del festival. Por la noche, los grupos de países visitantes interpretan canciones y bailes y concursos de poesía.

According to Wikipedia, the Waved Albatross, breeds in the Galapagos Islands and feeds off the coast of South America. The need for wind to enable gliding is the reason albatrosses are for the most part confined to higher latitudes; being unsuited to sustained flapping flight makes crossing the doldrums extremely difficult. The exception, the Waved Albatross, is able to live in the equatorial waters around the Galapagos Islands because of the cool waters of the Humboldt Current and the resulting winds. These medium-sized albatrosses measuring about 34-35 inches (86–90 cm) long, weighing in at about 7.5 lbs (3.4 kg), and having a wingspan 7.4 feet (2.25m). They are distinctive for their yellowish-cream neck and head, which contrasts with their mostly brownish bodies. Even more distinctive is the very long, bright yellow bill, which looks disproportionately large in comparison to the relatively small head and long, slender neck. They also have chestnut brown upper parts and under parts, except for the breast, with fine barring, a little coarser on the rump. They have brown upper-wings, back, and tail, along with a whitish breast and underwings. Their axillaries are brown. Juveniles are similar to adults except for more white on their head. Chicks have brown fluffy feathers. The lifespan of this species may reach 40 to 45 years.
If you need another reason to make your visit to the Galapagos in July, here it is. These guys nest here in late June-July and then they leave the Galapagos until the next nesting period during the following late June-July.

Insect wings are adult outgrowths of the insect exoskeleton that enable insects to fly. They are found on the second and third thoracic segments (the mesothorax and metathorax), and the two pairs are often referred to as the forewings and hindwings, respectively, though a few insects lack hindwings, even rudiments. Insect wings do not constitute appendages in technical parlance, as insects only have one pair of appendages per segment. The wings are strengthened by a number of longitudinal veins, which often have cross-connections that form closed "cells" in the membrane (extreme examples include Odonata and Neuroptera). The patterns resulting from the fusion and cross-connection of the wing veins are often diagnostic for different evolutionary lineages and can be used for identification to the family or even genus level in many orders of insects.
Fully functional wings are present only in the adult stage, after the last moult. The one exception is the order Ephemeroptera, in which the penultimate instar (also called the subimago) possesses well-developed and functional wings, which are shed at the final moult. Wings are only present in the subclass Pterygota, with members of the archaic Apterygota being wingless. Wings may also be lost in some pterygote clades, such as the fleas and lice.
The wings may be present in only one sex (often the male) in some groups such as velvet ants and Strepsiptera, or selectively lost in "workers" of social insects such as ants and termites. Rarely, the female is winged but the male not, as in fig wasps. In some cases, wings are produced only at particular times in the life cycle, such as in the dispersal phase of aphids. Beyond the mere presence/absence of wings, the structure and colouration will often vary with morphs, such as in the aphids, migratory phases of locusts and in polymorphic butterflies.
At rest, the wings may be held flat, or folded a number of times along specific patterns; most typically, it is the hindwings which are folded, but in a very few groups such as vespid wasps, it is the forewings.
How and why insect wings evolved is not well understood. Three main theories on the origins of insect flight are that wings developed from paranotal lobes, extensions of the thoracic terga; that they are modifications of movable abdominal gills as found on aquatic naiads of mayflies and that insect wings arose from the fusion of pre-existing endite and exite structures each with pre-existing articulation and tracheation.
