La progression de la Grande Aigrette, jadis une grande rareté, dès le milieu du XXe siècle, est l'une des plus spectaculaires que l'on connaisse. Comme pour la Garzette, c'est la plumasserie pratiquée au XIXe siècle qui a failli causer son extinction. On voit la Grande Aigrette surtout en automne et en hiver, les plus grandes concentrations se trouvant sur les rives du lac de Neuchâtel. Elle chasse dans l'eau peu profonde en bordure des roseaux ou dans les champs, souvent en compagnie de Hérons cendrés.

Work in progress of my new origami-tessellation.
Most of the time you start with folding the pattern in the middle of the paper.
This is the finished version.
If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".
Pomarico may be small but packs an amazing punch only 20km from the heavily touristed Matera it hardly has any tourism outside of Italians and then only infrequently which to me gives it that real authentic feel that I am always looking for. Sitting on the hill between Bradano and Basento rivers the fertile valley is guarded by the village rising 459 m above, it has seen habitation since the Magna Graecia period today the population is just under 4500 citizens.
The town takes its name from "Pomaria Locus" or "Pomi Ager " which basically translates to place full of fruit trees and true to its roots the place is surrounded by vineyards, fruit orchards and olive groves. The village celebrates a music festival every year dedicated to Antonio Vivaldi the famous composer whose mother comes from the village and I think probably as close to fame as any villager has achieved thus far.
This shot captures the oldest part of the town perched on it hilltop, it also highlights one of the main problems in the area, landslides, when the rains come the ground becomes saturated without good drainage causing separation of soil from bedrock combined with the steep inclines equals a big mess.
I took this on Oct 6th, 2018 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 Lens at 98mm 1/80s f`11 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , and DXO

This is a preliminary version of the Horsehead Nebula LRGB. So I shot this target two nights in a row, first with a red and luminance (mono brightness only) filters then the following night with green and blue filters. Celestron RASA 8 telescope (400mm focal length, f/2) on a Celestron CGEM2 EQ mount, QHY268M mono camera, Astronomik filters, PHD2 guiding, all controlled by NINA software. There are lots of problems with this shot, mostly from my cables causing ugly defects on the stars, and the cables moving between filters (and with the meridian flip). I am going to try to fix some of these problems with editing, but this is before I try.
One of my absolute favorite things about he RF&P is the timelessness of some of the scenes. While the power may have changed over the years, many of the locations have not. Doswell, Virginia is one such place, where a real deal RF&P signal mast, for now, governs this stretch of railroad. Unfortunately, like most cool things on the railroad, time marches on. Today many of us in the Old Dominion received word that CSX crews brought in its replacement, which will forever change this scene. It's tough to accept the things you don't want to, and while we all know things change, it doesn't mean we always want them to.

Another photo from the secret garden in Kemerton, I took this view a couple of months ago with far less vegetation and only one wheelbarrow. Spring has Sprung!

While most railroads are on a cost cutting spree the Reading & Northern is doing just the opposite by upgrading track & signals, buying more motive power & above all hiring more dedicated people to move the freight. Case in point, a new siding & control point (Muller) is being installed near Hamburg which will connect with an existing siding & run all the way to Port Clinton.

"Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning." -Benjamin Franklin
Work continues on the Norfolk Southern Pittsburgh Line installing Positive Train Control equipment, including new signal bridges at control points like the one here at Duncannon. Train 60N is rolling west under the new and old with the Norfolk and Western heritage unit leading a train of Russian steel slabs.
Work is still progressing west, with new equipment showing up periodically for installation and the technology is already in use on the nearby Lurgan Branch. The time of the classic Pennsylvania Railroad position light signal is rapidly winding down.
I see, long after A.D. 2000, cities laid out for ten to twenty million inhabitants, spread over enormous areas of countryside, with
buildings that will dwarf the biggest of today’s and notions of traffic and communication that we should regard as fantastic to the point of madness.
- Oswald Spengler, Decline of The West, 1926
The crisp autumn air and colorful leaves provide the perfect backdrop for this picturesque scene of train rails winding their way atop a stone bridge, surrounded by the lush greenery of the forest. The bridge, a testament to human engineering, cuts through the natural beauty of the trees, symbolizing the balance between man-made progress and the enduring power of nature.

a few weeks ago the hoopoos started breeding (see comment 1). Over the weekend the chicks must have hartched, not that one can see them, the mother will still stay put in the nest for 5-8 days, so dad has to do all the feeding for now. He is flying on and off with a worm here and a titbit there.
