Out and about this evening, I noticed that there were high wispy clouds moving quickly, and a full moon shining directly down. Couldn't help but shoot down to Narrabeen pool to put the elements together.

I went walking with the family on the last day of Winter. Up and over Bangalley Headland on the Northern Beaches of Sydney.
Winter is clearly history! What a fantastic afternoon.
A slightly different take on the previous version of this scene posted a couple of days ago. I really liked the soft water flow of the shorter shutter speed.

The topi (Damaliscus lunatus jimela) is a highly social and fast antelope subspecies of the common tsessebe, a species which belongs to the genus Damaliscus. They are found in the savannas, semi-deserts, and floodplains of sub-Saharan Africa.
Topi resemble hartebeest but have a darker coloration and lack sharply angled horns. They have elongated heads, a distinct hump at the base of the neck, and reddish brown bodies with dark purple patchings on their upper legs. They also have a mask-like dark coloration on the face. Their horns are ringed and lyrate shaped. Their coats are made of short, shiny hairs. They range in mass from 68 to 160 kg (150 to 353 lb). Head-and-body length can range from 150 to 210 cm (59 to 83 in) and the tail measures 40–60 cm (16–24 in). They are a tall species, ranging in height from 100 to 130 cm (39 to 51 in) at the shoulder.[5][6] Males tend to be larger and darker than females. Topi also have preorbital glands that secrete clear oil and the front legs have hoof glands.
The topi has a long but patchy distribution, as it prefers certain grasslands in arid and savanna biomes. Human hunting and habitat destruction have further isolated their population.
Topi live primarily in grassland habitats ranging from treeless plains to savannas. In ecotone habitats between woodlands and open grasslands, they stay along the edge using the shade in hot weather. They prefer pastures with green grass that is medium in height with leaf-like swards. Topis are more densely populated in areas where green plants last into the dry season, particularly near water. The topi is a selective feeder and uses its elongated muzzle and flexible lips to forage for the freshest plants. When foraging for food, topi tend to take small bites at a fast rate. Topi generally frequent flat lowlands and at elevations below 1500 m. When they have access to enough green vegetation, topi usually do not have to drink. They drink more when relying on dry grass. Topi use vantage points, such as termite mounds, to get a good look at their surroundings.
Topi are usually either numerous or absent in an area. Scattered populations do not last long and either increase or die off. The health of topis in a population depends on access to green vegetation. Herds of topi migrate between pastures. Predators of topi include lions and spotted hyenas, with jackals being predators of newborns. They are especially targeted by hyenas.Nevertheless, topi tend to have a low predation rate when other species are present.
The topi is currently classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN.

When the young monk Tsui-Yen felt that he had understood the essence of life, he left his teacher and traveled through China. Many years later, on his return, his master asked him: " Tell me about the essence of life". and Tsui-Yen replied: “When the sky is clear and the light plays in the waves of the water. The master looked at him and said: “You have grown old too, but you have not understood. Tsui-Yen lowered his eyes and asked his old master with a tear-streaked face: “Then please tell me what the essence of life is.” The master replied: “When the sky is clear and the light plays in the waves of the water".
I immediately thought of this story, which is typical for Zen Buddhists.

It appears so peaceful, out the front door of our hootch. But every once in a while, Charlie would fire a rocket at us. Thankfully, due to the mountains behind us, it was pretty much impossible for him to get the right 'angle' of attack, and they either ended up near the air base, or waaaaaaaaaaay out in the rice paddies.
And yes, that is Monkey Mountain in the distance. That's where our AFVN radio station was located. It would give us the 'sanitized' news of what was going on back home. People just don't realize how much truth there was in the old Robin Williams film, "Good Morning, Viet Nam."
At least they would play Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Grass Roots, and Steppenwolf, without whom we would have never survived.

Thank you all for your kind comments and warm congrats! Much appreciated.
All the thousands of miles I’ve travelled taking pictures it figures that the ones to get published are those taken closest to home — this one from inside the house looking through the window. No complaints, just interesting how that works. The squirrel photo is mine, but cover art for the 360 page book is by CAAC - The Pigozzi Collection, Genève, copyright Pierre Bodo and photo copyright by Maurice Aeschimann. The book is a catalogue to accompany The Great Animal Orchestra, a Bernie Krause exhibit at the Foundation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in Paris last summer. The catalogue is loaded with amazing art and photographs from around the world. If I could read French I’d tell you more about the exhibit, I just wish I had been able to make it to Paris to see it in person.

During our drive from Anchorage to Fairbanks, we experienced cloudy conditions with poor visibility until we were about an hour away from Denali National Park. When we were nearing the summit lake, the clouds dispersed, and sunlight appeared, revealing the distant mountain peaks. We spotted a pullout and decided to take a break to soak in the sunshine. It felt as if we were the only people for miles around, and the scenery was breathtaking. The road's slight curve created a perfect leading line toward the mountains, prompting me to capture a panorama image.

I already published these captures in color but wasn't very happy with the colors so I re-publish them in BW.

Studies In The Art Of The Slack Key
by Bill Adams
The Waimea Music Exchange store at Parker Center was filled with the beautiful sounds of Hawaiian music this past Saturday morning as a group of students from Cornell University participated in a slack key guitar lesson taught by the Big Island's own Don Kauli'a, whose album "Sweet Wahine" was nominated for a 2008 Grammy Award.
The students are enrolled in Cornell's Earth and Environmental Systems (EES) Field Program. A 5-month course which spans the entire spring semester, students engage in field, class and laboratory studies focused on the various ecosystems of our Hawaiian island chain and of Hawaii's history and culture.
Led by Professor Dr. Alexandra Moore, the EES Field Program is based out of Waimea and hosted by the Hawaii Preparatory Academy. The students' living quarters is the 8-bedroom Waiaka House near the main campus of HPA.
Dr. Moore explained, "The students are immersed in studies geared towards "Kumu Pa'a I Ka 'Aina, which translates to 'Knowledge and understanding that comes from the land.'"
The stated mission of the EES Field Program is "To inspire stewardship of the Earth through first-hand experience with the power, and fragility, of Earth's interconnected systems."
Upon completion of the EES Field Program, students will achieve 18 credit hours from courses such as; Field Study of the Earth System, Biogeochemistry of the Hawaiian Islands, Field Study of Marine Ecosystems, Internship Experience, and an Introduction to Hawaiian History and Culture, which included Saturday's slack key guitar lesson.
The Program stresses the importance of respecting the Hawaiian ancestral lands and to give something back to the community by engaging in a variety of service learning (in class) projects and local volunteer opportunities. Students are also encouraged to explore ways in which they can contribute to the well-being of their adopted community.
Before Saturday's lesson began, the students were able to briefly meet and chat with another famous Big Island slack key guitar master, Sonny Lim, a 2007 Grammy Award winner for his work on the album, "Slack Key Guitar Volume 2".
Participating in Saturday's guitar lessons were a diverse group of five Cornell University students; Hannah Kubica, a junior from Little Falls, New York, Keisuke Irie, a senior from Bergen County, New Jersey, Matt Connelly, a sophomore from Syracuse, New York, Kourtney Reynolds, a senior from San Diego, California and Tyler Huth, a sophomore from Boston, Massachusetts.
