After a very early start and a climb up Holme Fell in the dark, i had hoped for a sunrise, but, as the rest of the weekend had been grey, things did not look like improving.
As I was walking along the fell looking for angles I came across this tree, it was however being guarded by two other togs. Not wishing to photobomb them I carried on along the fell. On my way back they had disappeared so I had the chance to get in a bit closer to it. To my surprise the far fell lit up for about 30 seconds, the only sun I really saw all morning but at least i was in the right place
One of the eleven portraits in the exhibition Resilience 2049.
The portrait gallery depicts "the resilient", young people living in 2049 who are adapting to the climate disruption caused by previous generations. These are human beings who bear the wounds we inflict on them every day through our own inconsistency.
The exhibition is currently open at Michiel Bechir Art Gallery.
Teleport to the exhibition (the exhibition is 2nd floor on the right).

On a trail-less hike through the autumn woods above McClure Pass near Carbondale, Colorado, I discovered this intimate landscape scene - a lonely aspen tree holding on to life on a wind-swept ridge above the valley. The last light of the day shone on the tips of the trees branches, making it the real hero of this photograph. This particular ridge is one of the most fascinating locations I've ever seen - all across the ridge are withered, worn, twisted, and gnarled aspen trees - bent in odd directions and their growth stunted from years of wind and abuse on the ridgeline. This tree speaks to me - it reminds me that even through the most difficult time we can emerge as something beautiful and improved - thanks to resiliency.

Maiden voyage14 May 2023
Rothenburg only started to recover when, in 1873, it was connected to the German railway network. Prior to this, the city had been “rediscovered” by artists, writers and academics and was presented to a broader national and international public as the epitome of “old German” urban architecture. Tourism began to play a key role in the town’s economic life. Industrialization also made its mark, albeit at a modest level, the population increased and the town prospered.
From 1871 onwards, a small Jewish community settled in Rothenburg once again. The expulsion of this group in 1938 was a black day in the history of the town, which was glorified by the Third Reich as a perfect example of German culture from 1933 onwards. Another black day came in the shape of an American air raid during the last weeks of World War II, when around 45 per cent of the old walled town was destroyed. The successful rebuilding of the town in the post-war period is the most significant achievement in Rothenburg’s recent history.
at White Sands National Park.
Shot with Fuji X-T5 and 16-80mm lens.
My partner and I decided to spend the end of 2022 exploring the White Sands National Park, located south of Alamogordo, New Mexico. It was spur of the moment kind of trip and we did not know what to expect. Also, since it is a quite the drive from where we are in Arizona, 450 miles (720 km) so we said “it better be good!”. And what we saw was an amazing place like no other.
White Sands National Park covers 145,762 acres (227.8 sq mi; 589.9 sq km) in the Tularosa Basin, including the southern 41% of a 275 sq mi (710 sq km) field of white sand dunes composed of gypsum crystals. This gypsum dunefield is the largest of its kind on Earth, with a depth of about 30 feet (9.1 m), dunes as tall as 60 feet (18 m), and about 4.5 billion short tons (4.1 billion metric tons) of gypsum sand.
Approximately 12,000 years ago, the land within the Tularosa Basin featured large lakes, streams, grasslands, and Ice Age mammals. As the climate warmed, rain and snowmelt dissolved gypsum from the surrounding mountains and carried it into the basin. Further warming and drying caused the lakes to evaporate and form selenite crystals. Strong winds then broke up crystals and transported them eastward. A similar process continues to produce gypsum sand today.
The park is located about 15 miles (25 km) south of Alamogordo, in the state of New Mexico, USA.
The last poppy to bloom; amongst all the spent poppies was one last bit of orange bloom! Resilient to Septembers cold crisp mornings.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Domaine de Maizerets. Je suis allé revoir la paruline en ce 1 janvier 2016 car les conditions météo étaient similaires à celles du 28 décembre où cette photo a été prise. Malheureusement, elle n'était plus au rendez-vous. Les passereaux immatures se dispersent durant leur première année et ceux qui survivent peuvent coloniser de nouveaux territoires et contribuer à l'expansion de l'aire de distribution de l'espèce. En période de réchauffement climatique, ce risque devient même intéressant. Ce n'est donc pas uniquement un dérèglement de leur boussole interne mais une tendance à la dispersion scientifiquement admise qui nous permet parfois de faire des observations surprenantes comme celle-ci. Cette dernière image d'une paruline à collier sur la neige me semblait irréelle....

Like a person who's been in hiding from the recent cold nights, this rose decided to show herself on a rare November sunny day,
Have a great week everyone.
Come una persone che si e nascosta dal freddo di queste ultime notte, questa rosa si e mostrata durante una rara giornata di sole di novembre.
Buona settimana a tutti.
Thank you all for your support,
merci a toutes et tous pour votre suport.
Grazie a tutti e tutte per il vostro supporto.
Couldn't find a great clean composition , resulting in this some how messy photo, but the subject was so interesting that had to take it. This tree was surrounded by a very fast flowing river, with it's roots grabbing strongly over the rocks. Amazing scene to see.

Right back to the tropics just in time to wish you that kind of view for the upcoming weekend.
We return to San Blas Archipelago for the day, insisting on its fragility.
How else could it be when you're made of sand, your top altitude is a few centimeters above sea level, and you're rising in a region where storms are legion when they are not hurricanes?
