This orange tree in the village of Ein Hod represents the Caramel disaster for me. A terrible disaster, both in its size and severity, but with time it will be possible to rehabilitate or rebuild the homes that were destroyed, and I hope that with time, the ecological situation will return to how it was...

This represents another unexpected hazard of the 365 Days project: I find myself scoping out reflective surfaces whereever I find them. I've edited out most of the clues to the location of this particular reflective surface,but if you're looking for a challenge you'll find the ghost of a hint at the top of the frame.

Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary represents an enclave of relative wilderness amidst swirling traffic and sprawling urban infrastructure. Located just as the name in Arabic suggests - at the Cape of the Creek, it is among the few urban protected areas of the world. Ras Al Khor is also home to about 500 greater flamingoes (Phoenicopterus roseus), which has become something of a mascot for Dubai's Wild Life protection program. Ras Al Khor is home to more than 20,000 birds of 67 species, making it an ideal spot for eco-friendly tourists. Although not officially so, Ras Al Khor is also fondly called as the Dubai bird park. Renowned for its pink flamingos that steal the show in winter, you can also spot reef herons, great egrets, cormorants, black-winged stilts, grey herons, osprey, sandpipers and many such birds here.
.
There are two viewing spots : "The Flamingo Hide" and "The Mangrove Hide", it is open October to March 7:30 - 17:30 hr, April to September 06:00 - 18:00 hr, Fridays 14:00-17:30 hr. Mangrove Hide is also the feeding spot where around 09:30 food is given to the birds. There is no fees to visit the spots.

Odo Tevi represents the Republic of Vanuatu at the UN. As a low-lying island nation in the Pacific, Vanuatu is particularly vulnerable to devastating cyclones and sea level rise. Over the last decade ambassador Odo has worked tirelessly to hold big polluters accountable and unlock the funds to help small nations repair damage and adapt to climate change. The Wet'suwet'en chiefs honoured him with a blanketing ceremony and Odo pledged to help tell their story to other ambassadors.

Polish eagle
Grossular garnet of the hessonite variety, 149 rubies, emerald, pearl, enamelled gold
This jewel represents the Order of the White Eagle, a Polish order of chivalry. King Louis XIV of France had purchased several valuable pieces from the estate of Louisa Maria Gonzaga (1611-1667), who was married successively to Polish kings Wladyslaw IV Vasa and John II Casimir Vasa. It was listed in an inventory of the collection of Louis XIV as early as 1673 and was probably part of that estate.*
Enameled gold clip enriched with garnets. It is formed of the white Polish eagle with black feathers, the wings deployed, the head of the imperial crown. Its talons hold the regalia of the kingdom of Poland, those of the right the golden sceptre, those of the left, the crossed globe, enameled with translucent dark blue and surrounded by garnets. A large garnet, faceted, heart-shaped, constitutes the body of the bird. Other smaller garnets are embedded on the wings and tail. A round pearl is suspended from the tail.
The Polish Order, known as the White Eagle, was instituted in February 1325 by King Ladislas I on the day of the marriage of his son Casimir the Great with Aldona of Lithuania.*
The French Crown Jewels
The royal collection also includes the Crown Jewels. The so-called ‘Côte de Bretagne’ spinel, which once belonged to Anne de Bretagne, is the oldest of the gems to have survived a tumultuous history involving theft, dispersal and sale. Three historical diamonds – the Regent, the Sancy and the Hortensia – formerly adorned royal crowns or garments. The spectacular 19th-century jewellery sets in the collection include emerald and diamond pieces that once belonged to Empress Marie Louise.*
In the Galerie d'Apollon, in the Petite Galerie
The Petite Galerie itself is an iconic wing of the Louvre. This was created in the second half of the 16th century under the command of Charles IX as a single storey hall. But construction wasn’t completed as internal conflicts locked France up in more important matters. As the century came to a close, the Petite Galerie got its second storey — and this is where the Galerie d’Apollon would eventually go. Before then, however, there was the Galerie des Rois, which showed artwork owned by Henry IV. Anne of Austria enjoyed the bottom floor as a summer apartment, which is why it has been lavishly decorated since the 1650s (some of this still survives today).
[Louvre Guide]
On 6th February 1661, flames ripped through the splendid Petite Galerie dating from the reign of Henri IV. Henri’s grandson, Louis XIV, immediately set about constructing an even more beautiful gallery to replace it and entrusted its design to the architect Louis Le Vau. The young king, aged twenty-three, had recently chosen the sun as his emblem, and so this became the theme of his new gallery, named after Apollo, the Greek god of the sun and the arts.
Charles Le Brun, First Painter to the king, was commissioned to design the decoration. He called on the finest artists to create it. The Galerie d’Apollon – the first royal gallery in France – was a laboratory for aesthetic and architectural experimentation which, twenty years later, served as a model for an icon of French classicism: the Hall of Mirrors at the Château de Versailles.
Le Brun decorated the gallery’s vaulted ceiling with paintings of Apollo driving his chariot across the sky. Those along the central axis show the sun god’s journey, marking the different times of the day from Dawn to Night. These are surrounded by a whole cosmos of images and symbols of everything that is influenced by variations in the sun’s light and heat (the hours, days, months, seasons, signs of the zodiac and continents). The ‘Gallery of Apollo’, with its lavish carved and painted decoration, gave visual form to the sun’s power over the whole universe, magnifying the glory of the Sun King.
However, it was not long before Louis XIV began to leave Paris and the Louvre behind in favour of Versailles, where he and his court eventually settled for good. The gallery’s decoration was not completed until two centuries later, in 1850, under the direction of architect Félix Duban. To decorate the centre of the ceiling, Delacroix was commissioned for a 12-metre wide painting; the result, Apollo Slaying the Serpent Python, is a manifesto of French Romanticism. The wall decoration was also completed, with portrait tapestries of 28 monarchs and artists who had built and embellished the Louvre palace over the centuries.
The royal collection also includes the Crown Jewels. The so-called ‘Côte de Bretagne’ spinel, which once belonged to Anne de Bretagne, is the oldest of the gems to have survived a tumultuous history involving theft, dispersal and sale. Three historical diamonds – the Regent, the Sancy and the Hortensia – formerly adorned royal crowns or garments. The spectacular 19th-century jewellery sets in the collection include emerald and diamond pieces that once belonged to Empress Marie Louise.

The Musee du Louvre, in Louvre Palace (Palais du Louvre)
Built over the Louvre fortress (itself founded by Philip II in 1190), the Louvre Palace was the chief residence of French kings from 1546, under Francis I until 1682, when Louis XIV moved to Versailles. Although Louis moved the household, the royal collection remained in the palace and in 1692 it was joined by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres and the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, remaining there for 100 years. The palace became a museum following the French Revolution, at the instruction of the National Assembly, and the Musee du Louvre opened 10 August 1793.

I really like my use of the white background that way the photo had significant contrast without much editing. This was captured at F.5.6 and 1/250.
