Just above the crashing waves of the Hyrule shores, the intrepid warrior Link carefully climbs his way upward. If nothing else, carrying his sword, shield, and his vast assortment of "adventuring equipment" must make for quite the workout here.

Dettifoss waterfall Iceland, situated in northeastern Iceland, not far from Mývatn.
You see the falling Jökulsá á Fjöllum river, which comes from the Vatnajökull glacier and collects water from a large area in north-east Iceland. Dettifoss is the most powerful waterfalls in Europe, having a flow between 200.000 and 500.000 litres per second !!! The falls are 100 m wide and have a drop of 44 m down to the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon.
WOW...makes your hands shiver

The L&N Depot Museum
Hours of Operation:
Monday - Friday 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Free Admission
The first depot was built on this site in 1905 when the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Line came to Foley. The railroad was once known as the Bay Minette and Fort Morgan Railroad. At that time, logging was an important industry in this area and the railroad was built to help move the timber out of the area.
At one time, there were two trains per day going in each direction - one to Foley and the other to Bay Minette. These trains were wood burners. They had fairly high smokestacks in order to deaden the live sparks that could cause fires in this timber area. There was also wire netting stretched across the smokestack to help keep the cinders from flying into the woods.
Wood racks were found along the railway so that the wood burners would always have a supply of wood. The settlers would cut and haul their wood to these racks. When the wood was loaded into the train’s tinderbox, the engineer would sign a “wood ticket.” The settler would turn in this ticket for cash.
The trains would also bring in passengers from the North who were coming to Baldwin County to buy land and build homes. In Bay Minette travelers would transfer from the main line to a small coach. This small passenger train became known as “The Pine Knot Special.” The train would make many stops along the 36-mile trip from Bay Minette to pile on wood or to let people off near their farms.
Foley became a growing and thriving community. The railroad served as a means to get the various crops to market. Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, tobacco and cucumbers were some of the main crops that were shipped on the railroad.
The first depot that was built in 1905 burned to the ground in 1908. It was rebuilt and served as the center of activity for the community for many years.
In 1971, word was received that L & N was going to discontinue service to Foley and would destroy the building. John Snook, owner of Gulf Telephone Company bought the building for $1.00. He cut the depot and the freight area into two parts and moved them to Magnolia Springs. There it stayed for approximately twenty-four years and served as storage for Gulf Telephone. In the early nineties, Mr. Snook deeded the depot back to the city of Foley. In 1995, it was returned to the original site and renovations were begun to make the depot into a museum for the city.
The Peterbuilt doesn't look so big when compared it to the Galaxy C-5's engines. The Galaxy C-5 is the world's largest military airplane. This one and the ones in the background are in storage at the Aircraft Maintenance and Regeneration Group, Tuscon, Arizona. At the time I took this picture (2012) there were over four thousand US military aircraft being stored here, and they are all wrapped for protection from the elements. I did some research and this particular airplane (0466) seems to still be there.
I went to so many waterfalls in Iceland that I can't remember the name of this one. The sun was up creating intense contrast - a difficult shot. Pictured here with photographer Steve Bell balanced on a rock to give it a bit of scale
I thought I'd have an outing before my area goes in to Covid Tier 3 tomorrow. Revisited Scale Haw Force hoping, this time, for some autumnal colours but suspect I'd missed the best of it.

I guess that ferry carries several cars, but it looks like a kids' toy on the picture.

Bornean Keeled Pitviper (Tropidolaemus subannulatus) - Malua Forest Reserve, Malaysia
A T. subannulatus from the Malaysian Rainforest in Borneo. This is probably the most common viper species in Borneo but this individual has a somewhat unusual color atleast when compared to the others which I encountered. This one had more of a blueish tint to its scales which made it a rather strikingly colored snake. By playing around with my lighting I was able to get a shot which really showed off the texture of the scales.
This is part of the front scale from a Remington 12 typewriter, from the early 20th century. The numbers reflect the scale of 10 characters per inch, with each minor tick representing the width of one character - one-tenth of an inch.
Shot for Macro Mondays' weekly theme "numbers".
This was the first time on this trip I could stop and take all my toys from the car with enough time to enjoy.
I was designated driver at the time, my co-driver happily sleeping as the sun came up on this glorious vista. Took a while to find a safe parking spot so missed the 'Golden time' but hey, I'm not complaining. More to follow.

first try doing anything like this, go easy on me.

Returning from a hospital appointment and after a few days of rain, I decided to check out some waterfalls. The falls at Scaling are fed by overflow from a reservoir and I was disappointed to find only a trickle when I arrived. So I tried to maximise the flow with an ND filter and long exposure, the draw back being movement in the trees!

I've posted a mono version of a similar shot years ago, Scales Moor is a flat plateaux of limestone in the Yorkshire Dales. There are a number of Erratics like the one here scattered randomly around.
