Furthermore nicely groomed itinerary of the Annapurna Base Camp package, it is a famous preference amongst various outside enthusiasts, from a solo lady tourist to hikers visiting in agencies to Nepal. Many landscapes and convey you so shut to the base of 7,000 and 8,000 meter peaks in a such a quick duration of time as the Annapurna Base Camp. This trek is the combination of easy walking trail along the various landscape, forests, water resources, villages and mountains. After an exploration day in Kathmandu, fly alongside the Himalayan Range to the lake town of Pokhara below the Annapurnas. Spend an afternoon exploring the town and strolling along the lake shore.

This Annapurna Sanctuary Trek presents a comprehensive exploration of the most hanging area in the 50 km Annapurna Range. This trekking package is designed to aid acclimatization with reasonable daily altitude increases. Setting of Annapurna Base Camp at 4130 m is unique and fairly spectacular, set amidst the majestic peaks of Annapurna I (8091 m), Annapurna South (7219 m), Machapuchhre (6993 m) and Hiunchuli (6441 m). ABC (4130 m) along the Machhapuchhre Base Camp is the ultimate destination for the trekkers in which the panoramic view of mountains never fail to dazzle. It’s ignored with the aid of the domineering peaks of Annapurna (8091m) and Machhapuchchhre (6993m), meaning “Fishtail” for its distinct summit.

I think the Mexican Silene is my favorite wildflower of the southwestern forests, which might explain why there are several shots of them in my photostream. I hope it brightens your day.

Loudoun Kirk, dedicated to St Michael, was established at the end of the twelfth century. The lands on which it was built, and which became Loudoun parish, had been given by Richard de Morville, King William the Lion's High Steward, to James, son of Lambinus, before 1189. James, the member of a Flemish family who had settled earlier in Lanarkshire, built the first motte and bailey castle overlooking the Hag Burn as the centre of his authority. At or soon after its foundation, the revenues of Loudoun Kirk, were allocated to support the monks of the newly-founded Kilwinning Abbey, and in return they were obliged to provide a priest (curate) to attend to the spiritual needs of the parishioners. In January 1491, James IV created for George Campbell of Loudoun the free burgh or barony of Newmilns. The castle was built there-and gradually, as more and more people moved to the new burgh, it became the main centre of population in the parish. During the bitter Campbell/Kennedy feuds of 1527/8, Loudoun Kirk was badly damaged, but rebuilt. Soon afterwards, however, in 1530, in recognition of the shift in population, a chapel was built at Newmilns. Loudoun Kirk remained the parish church until at least the 17th century, when the chapel in Newmilns was upgraded to parochial status. Thereafter Loudoun Kirk and its kirkyard continued in use for occasional church services, but more particularly as the last resting-place of generations of the parishioners of Loudoun.
...but that's gonna cost you one penny! There's no free wishes! I tried to get some nice gorgeous candid photos of people in my local mall but that didn't last very long as I was kicked out by one of those mall-cops. Apparently it's against the law to take photos in the mall. Oh well, I'll find another place. So I hope on taking more and more of these shots like Stephan Geyer. Stephan inspired me to do this. Well don't forget to comment and favorite. Have a great day!

201 años dempués de la declaración de soberanía de 1808 Fai! quixo recordar esti 25 de mayu como'l día nacional d'Asturies. Pa ello, entamóse una folixa que cuntó con un recital poéticu, la ellaboración d'un mural y un conciertu con 4 grupos asturianos que punxeron la banda sonora a una xornada reivindicativa pola soberanía popular asturiana.
Más d’un cientu de persones participaron esti sábadu 23 na I Folixa Nacional entamada por Fai! como reivindicación y celebración del Día de la Nación Asturiana, recuerdu de la xornada qu’abre la historia contemporánea d’Asturies, el 25 de mayu de 1808, día de la declaración de soberanía de la Xunta Xeneral.
Doscientos ún años depués d’esti fechu y de la creación de la bandera asturiana, la organización d'esquierda soberanista Fai! quixo ufrir un menú folixeru y combativu nel marcu del CSOA La Reflexón. Abriendo les actividaes, Sergio Gutiérrez Camblor, Carlos Suari, Pablo X. Suárez, Xabel Vegas y Xandru Fernández protagonizaron el recital poéticu “Poetes agresivos (disparen les sos obres contra los que se duermen)”, onde tuvo bien presente, de la mano de los sos versos, la crítica social y la ironía más característica de cinco poetes que representaron na Folixa’l presente y el futuru de la lliteratura nacional, al tiempu que nes paredes se proyectaben imáxenes subversives qu'afalaben l'ambiente combativu del recital.
De siguío, dellos artistes plásticos emprimaben a diseñar un mural que tenía la histórica fras como protagonista: “Asturies enxamás vencida”.
Dientro del CSOA, organización, delles puestos de material y músicos ultimaben tolos detalles pa que dende les siete y media, la música entamara a sonar na I Folixa Nacional con un escenariu enllenu d'asturines y de banderes d'otros pueblos en llucha como les de los Països Catalans, Castiella, el País Llionés, Andalucía, Euskal Herria, Palestina...K-Nalón yera’l grupu encargáu de romper el silenciu col so rap dinamiteru 100% n’asturianu.
Darréu Arma X y 13 Palabras xubíen al escenariu de La Reflexón pa que la revolución de rimes nun aparara.Metanes l'actuación, una pancarta xubió al escenariu pa denunciar la illegalización de les idées y pola derogación de la llei de partíos.
Al finar esta actuación los sones reivindicativos dexaron pasu al actu políticu, onde militantes de Fai! lleeron un manifiestu en favor del 25 de mayu como día nacional d'Asturies. Enantes, un representante del Comité de Sofitu a Iniciativa Internacionalista n'Asturies, que llamentablemente foi la única organización qu'acudió a la llamada que dende Fai! se ficiere a los partíos de la izquierda nacional asturiana pa dicir unes pallabres, agradeció'l convite y presentó la campaña que ta desendolcando'l comité nesti país, a pesar de les torgues y la criminalización que careció y carez esta y otres munches opciones polítiques d'esquierda soberanista nel estáu español.
Na segunda metada del conciertu Vinagre de Sidra abría capítulu pa les guitarres y el rock, que yá na fin de la nueche diba zarrar Gomeru, depués de cinco hores de música dende la trinchera más reivindicativa del país.
Dende Fai! nun queremos que s'escaeza la nuestra historia, la historia d'un pueblu combativu que siempre supo tar a l'altura de les circunstancies. Güei tócanos a nosotres y nosotros, les y los asturianes y asturianos del sieglu XXI siguir na llucha en busca de la soberanía popular d'Asturies.

Tragedy at Six Bells
By David John Withers, Brynmawr
My father worked in the colliery all his life and I sort of followed him into the pit. I went to work in Six Bells Colliery at 17 years of age.
When I first went on the 0.18 coal face as a collier's helper I was introduced to my 'batty' Reggie Poe who showed me the tools we were using and two chalk marks 15 yards apart on the coal face. This was our working place, 15 yards long by 4-foot-6 deep by 5 feet high. I thought 'bloody hell' - it seemed a huge amount of coal to shift.
Although the other coal faces in our district were more modern with hydraulic roof supports, we were still using the older friction posts and linked bars. I've still got the scars where one of the bars came down on me!
We had quite a few problems with gas on the 0.18 coal face and the dust was killing. At times the conveyor would start up and you couldn't see each other until the dust settled down.
As boys we often refused to go onto the face because of the amounts of dust there - being youngsters we stuck together even when the officials threatened to send us home. It wasn't much of a threat as I was only earning about £6 odd!
I had been working about two years when the explosion happened. I was working on the 0.18 face at Six Bells on the 'turning shift' and arrived at the colliery on the bus to see the place in turmoil and heard that an explosion had happened. As the explosion had occurred at our place of work, we offered to go down and help as we knew the place, but the Rescue Brigade had it under control and wouldn't let us go down.
It's hard to say my feelings about it all. We knew there was gas there and they said a spark had set it off. I had mostly enjoyed the colliery up to then. I remember four of the men who died - I used to give them snuff with powdered bark mixed in as a joke - there was a good spirit amongst the men at the pit.
Once the explosion had happened it put me off. I finished and I put my notice in soon after. I was too young to lose my life in the colliery. If I had been working the day shift that week it would have been me. The explosion opened my eyes to the dangers and I went into the construction industry instead - I was always good with my hands. The pit made me grow up.
The deaths of 45 men killed 50 years ago in a colliery explosion have been remembered with a service at the site.
A gas explosion ripped through the Six Bells colliery near Abertillery, Blaenau Gwent at 10.45am on 28 June 1960.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, led a service of remembrance at the site.
He also unveiled a memorial to the tragedy, a 20m high sculpture of a miner by Sebastian Boyesen.

Do yourself a big favor and give a listen to the Be Good Tanyas sing "The Littlest Birds Sing the Prettiest Songs I just can't seem to get enough of this group.
This song is on the following albums:
Blue Horse
Well I feel like an old hobo,
I'm sad lonesome and blue
I was fair as the summer day
Now the summer days are through
You pass through places
And places pass through you
But you carry 'em with you
On the souls of your travellin' shoes
Well I love you so dearly I love you so clearly
Wake you up in the mornin' so early
Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues
I got the wanderin' blues
And i'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways one of
these days soon
And I'll sing
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs...
Well it's times like these
I feel so small and wild
Like the ramblin' footsteps of a wanderin' child
And I'm lonesome as a lonesome whippoorwill
Singin these blues with a warble and a trill
But I'm not too blue to fly
No I'm not too blue to fly cause
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs...
Well I love you so dearly
I love you so fearlessly
Wake you up in the mornin' so early
Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues
I got the wanderin' blues
And I don't wanna leave you
I love you through and through
Oh I left my baby on a pretty blue train
And I sang my songs to the cold and the rain
I had the wanderin' blues
And I sang those wanderin' blues
And I'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways
One of these days soon
And I'll sing...
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs....
[I don't care if the sun don't shine
I don't care if nothin' is mine
I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my lovin' in the wintertime] - Syd

This image has strong emotional meaning for me. I shot it on March 21, 2006. It was freezing cold and my hands were so cold, I could barely hold the camera still long enough to get these shots (it's a stitched composite of 16 images).
Times were so good when I shot this and I had no idea what hard times were to come within the next two months. I won't exploit my friend's memory here for the world, and I'm not looking for sympathy. But I miss him dearly.
Every time I see this image, I feel a strong surge of emotions. And every time I'm in Upstate New York, I have to visit this spot. I miss our adventures together.
If you ever have the opportunity to go on a trip with someone, take it. Even if you can't really afford it. If a friend just wants to hang out, don't find an excuse not to. Take every opportunity you can to explore what this world has to show you, and to spend as much time with friends as you can. You have no idea just how quickly those times can come to a permanent end.
I may only be 26, but I know how precious my youth still is. Stay young forever. There will come a day when you'll no longer be able to explore. And that day may not be in your later years.
"Keep me searching
for a heart of gold
You keep me searching
for a heart of gold
And I'm growing old."
(Music and Lyrics by Neil Young)
I think I've found it Neil!

This is the only embarkation and debarkation point on East Anacapa Island. The ship's captain must maneuver the vessel in tight against the pilings which also serve as railings that hold up the small wooden deck that serves as a pier to board and deboard passengers. Of course the boat is rocking and so are the waves. During our voyage two persons standing on the deck and one on the ship assisted helping passengers to step onto and across the narrow rung of a ladder and onto the deck itself. A short stair case provides access to the next level where there is a larger area with benches that are sheltered by a roof to protect visitors at that level from the elements. Then the three visible metal staircases painted white which were recently reconstructed after the originals rusted. After ascending two more concrete stair cases built into the rock you arrive at the bottom of the 'crain' where there is an observation point and an information board. To reach the promintory and the surface of the island one must ascend three additional stair cases, after which it is a quarter mile uphill walk along a trail to the visitor's center. Are you tired yet? I was.

So, I’m in the American Wing of the MET today, and I’m going through the visible storage areas, as
we’re all looking for something
Me, it so happens, was searching for some grandfather clocks I knew were there. So I find them, and then, over my shoulder, Yikes!, there she is, ...the ghost of Madame X, leaning on me and breathing heavy. She’s upset… She used to be upstairs, in the limelight! Gee, in New York, there was a time when
all the women wanted to be MadameX
She cries. She can’t stand it here, under glass, in this nether storage kingdom. She needs to be out, where the world can admire her. She’s recognizes me,…she knows I’m one of her countless admirers…but she only had airs for me, up there,..then, when things were swell. She’s had it with the MET now, though , and wants to go back to Paris…If only I could help her out of the glass, she whispers in my ear, …softly now, slowly,…she would take me to Paris with her… WHOA!!!, Where have I heard that before. This very past spring, I got taken in by
near the main entrance of the MET at the head of the stairs…I helped her down and out, with the same promise of a Parisian interlude and when we got out
Marie-Denise ditches me in the park - see note
( they caught up with her at JFK, and she’s back on the wall, but I barely say hello anymore). Hey! I shout, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice!...and I bolted. Got to head of the stairs, but Madame X was angry now, and quickly flew after me and gave me good swift kick in the you know where… luckily, I landed out in the courtyard safe. A little wounded pride, but at least I wasn’t out standing in the rain soaked park, as I was last spring, with a broken heart..
So, the last week of 52 weeks in B&W demonstrates that
lead to dreams...and ghost stories.

About the shot
This was taken during my last Edinburgh Zoo shoot as a non-member. Expect many more photos once I get my membership card. The Capybaras (world's largest rodent) were much more active than I'd ever seen them. After a quick dip in the water, two of them jumped about together. One was pursuing the other more enthusiastically but I wasn't sure if they were siblings playing or if it was perhaps mating/bonding behaviour. The one with its back to the wall was basically saying "go away" I think. :-)
The title comes from the new T-Mobile commercial. If you haven't seen it you must watch it. If this "flash mob" doesn't make you smile, then nothing will.
About Capybaras
Capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), also known as capibara, chigüire in Venezuela, chigüiro, and carpincho in Spanish, and capivara in Portuguese, is the largest living rodent in the world. It is related to agouti, chinchillas, coyphillas, and guinea pigs. Its common name, derived from Kapiÿva in the Guarani language, means "master of the grasses", while its scientific name, hydrochaeris, is Greek for "water hog".
Though now extinct, there once existed a larger capybara called Neochoerus pinckneyi. Other fossil rodents that were eight times the size of modern capybaras (larger than a grizzly bear) have been informally called "capybaras" but were actually dinomyids related to the pacarana. There is also a "lesser capybara", Hydrochoerus isthmius.
Capybaras are social animals, usually found in groups, between 10 and 30 (though larger groups of up to 100 sometimes can be formed), controlled by a dominant male (who will have a prominent scent gland on his nose used for smearing his scent on the grasses in his territory.) They communicate through a combination of scent and sound, being very vocal animals with purrs and alarm barks, whistles and clicks, squeals and grunts.
Capybaras are excellent swimmers and can survive completely underwater for up to five minutes, an ability they will use to evade predators. If necessary, a Capybara can sleep underwater, keeping its nose just at the waterline. During midday, as temperatures increase, Capybaras wallow in water to keep cool and then graze in late afternoons and early evenings. They sleep little, usually dozing off and on throughout the day and grazing into and through the night.

I'd better add a description to this! Ants and Aphids have a symbiotic relationship, although not so close that one could not live without the other, but beneficial to both parties. The Aphids suck the sap of plants. They're very good at this, but aren't very good at defending themselves from predators. Ants would like to drink the sap, but aren't very good at getting it, their mouthparts are a good strong set of jaws which happen to be very good at chasing of predators. So, the ants look after the ahpids, tending them and chasing off anything that comes near, big or small. In return the aphids produce a sugar rich liquid called honeydew, which the ant in this photo is collecting from the aphid. Symbiotic relationships like this where food is exchanged are known as trophobiosis, with the provider of the food - in this case the aphid - being the trophobiont.

Catchlight in eye, View On Black
This is a state Bird of Andhra.Commonly found across India along roadsides. Looks much more B'ful and colorful blue when in Flight.
Rantings: This is clicked at a place named Paroti (which was not even having road, until my last visit). this village (and several more) lies the painganga national park which is high density teakwood forest. No school, no bus, no basic amenities, but this is MY place. We have a farm there and I make it a point to visit there twice a year.
This looks soft as sigma does not perform well from 200-300 range...

View Large On Black - Well... It certainly looked like an alien the first time I saw one last week! It's called an "Ambush Bug" and it's not even a half inch long.
From a couple sources on the web...
These stealthy critters sit very still on or near flowers, their superb camouflage allowing them to remain undetected while an unwitting butterfly or other unfortunate happens by to gather nectar. They then seize their prey using front legs adapted for the task - these legs resemble the front legs of the praying mantis. It is a ferocious bug indeed that takes prey 10 times its own size.
The mouth of this bug as with the assassin bug (a close cousin) is shaped like a spike that is plunged into the body of the prey it catches. The "proboscis" is used to jab the victim. The saliva then dissolves the insides of the insect it has caught. Once it is turned to liquid, this is sucked from the insect much like we might use a straw. The bug's saliva is able to paralyze the food prey so the ambush bug can feed without having to hold tightly to its dinner.

You can see the left leg of the Ambush Bug holding the head of its victim while it inserts it's proboscis to extract the dissolved, insect milk shake! Yummmmm....
The night before this image was taken we took this little beauty inside and photographed it with my bud's MP-E 65 and strobes, with the camera on a tripod. After our little "Studio Session" we put the bug and the flower she was sitting on back in the same spot. I checked on her several times over the next 24 hours and she hadn't moved 4 inches. On one of those occasions she had caught, and was feeding on this fly.
Very cool to find these tiny little dramas playing out under our feet!
Listen, at first you said I do, but now it's I did,
Said together we should live, now your mad with time we spend,
Used to be jealous of my friends, and fill my weekends,
But, now your off for pastimes,
Playin' games with my mind,
Your layin' the blame in my lap, but delaying laying in our bed,
Yo, I meant what I said when you weren't listening, and I'm not saying it again

TRUTH #1003
I TRY TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY
Today I was caught off guard by something (more like someone)
But I proud of myself for the way I responded to it.
I could have very easily made a huge mistake.
And It's funny that right after all this happened we both laughed it off
As if it was all just a test.
This whole month feels like it's been this huge test. I've been so busy lately,
but I'm sure it'll all be worth it in the end
Despite its beauty and popularity, the Palace closed in 1978, and unsurprisingly began to crumble. Some of the windows were smashed, the marquee began to rust. Thankfully, it didn't take long for residents to realize that this gem would be lost forever should no one do anything, and in 1983, Cumberland Heritage began making noise about restoring and saving the Palace.
Still, little was done until 1989, when the Palace was listed in David Naylor's "Great American Movie Theatres". Beginning in the 90s, Downtown Crossville, Inc., a group of citizens, began the drive to save what was left of the Palace. The city purchased the property in '93 thanks to DCI's push, and in '94, the National Historic Register added the Palace to its list.
By 1996, the people of Crossville had approved the funding of a bond to restore the Palace so it could be used as a community auditorium. TNDOT also donated over $230,000 to the cause. More importantly (if you ask me), many private corporations donated money, while students and other locals donated their time and bodies for work in the theatre itself.
The Palace had her grand reopening in February of 2001, and the restoration has led to a revival of the entire downtown area where the Palace sits. Today, she hosts debates, fundraisers, music, pageants, various entertainments, and, of course, classic film.
It made me smile to see that the Palace is referred to as a "jewel" and "gem", because that is exactly what I said about it without realizing that's how locals see it. Though not large in stature, she's definitely large in style and class, isn't she?

The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is native to the Arctic Ocean and its surrounding seas. It is the world's largest carnivore species found on land. It's also the largest bear, together with the omnivore Kodiak bear which is approximately the same size. An adult male weighs around 400–680 kg (880–1,500 lb) while an adult female is about half that size.
Although it is closely related to the brown bear, it has evolved to occupy a narrow ecological niche, with many body characteristics adapted for cold temperatures, for moving across snow, ice, and open water, and for hunting the seals which make up most of its diet. Although most polar bears are born on land, it spends most of its time at sea, hence its name meaning "maritime bear", and can hunt consistently only from sea ice, spending much of the year on the frozen sea.
The polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species, with 5 of the 19 polar bear subpopulations in decline. For decades, unrestricted hunting raised international concern for the future of the species; populations have rebounded after controls and quotas began to take effect. For thousands of years, the polar bear has been a key figure in the material, spiritual, and cultural life of Arctic indigenous peoples, and the hunting of polar bears remains important in their cultures.
Global warming is now listed as the most significant threat to the polar bear, primarily because the melting of its sea ice habitat reduces its ability to find sufficient food.
