Location: Seven Weeks Poort in the Little Karoo
Description: Here is another (half-decent) composition from my recent visit to the spectacular Seven Weeks Poort (I just wish I'd pressed the shutter one second earlier).
The magnificent vertical rockfolds, reaching for the skies on both sides of the road, reflect the inconceivable forces of the volcanic eruptions millions of years ago, forming the chain of Cape ripple-like mountains. Often the converging slopes leave only a narrow pass, just broad enough for the Huis River to pass through, whilst the precipices of naked, distorted rock-faces tower like walls of a natural rampart, obscuring the sun.
I honestly couldn’t think of any better place to pedal my bicycle… can you?

** This is my final shot from our Sussex trip at least for a while . I do have a lot more images from the holiday but they will have to join the ever expanding archive for a spell . I think I have posted a shot of all the main places we visited in what was a busy and varied week.
I could not resist posting a second shot from the superb cliffs at Seven Sisters . This was taken from the top of a cliff above Birling Gap .
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO
WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .
If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.
Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe
Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oírlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. Todavía nos tiene a ti y a mí. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX
"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.
The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."
We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

PS: Electronic - Can't Find My Way Home Just a recommendation. It is important to learn the road signs of the Universe... happy return.
PS: Ground Control to Major Tom. Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong. Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you...

It was wandering under the shutters of a window. Always on the move. Fun fact: it looks so huge on this picture that the ID program I use since some months couldn't identify it and thought it was a goldfish.

before you meet the right one,so when it happens you'll be thankful.

We were out all day today and when we came home... I had 7 Black Swallowtail that eclosed.... sadly one had to be euthanized....
5 female / 2 male (-1)
Most flew off before I could get a picture, but these three hung around for quite a while...
To date I have released 7.... 5F - 2M
Took the 4 wheel toy out in the evening for probably the last ride this season. Some issues fixed that created problems during the Dolomites trip..probably more to recover..Take care. Thx, Udo.
Thanks to Everyone who took the trouble to view, comment or fave.
Last 5 minutes of warm evening light on the Seven Sisters & coastguard cottages.
You can see where a massive 10 meter chunk of the 250ft high chalk cliff of the fourth of the seven sisters has slipped out into the English Channel earlier in the week - worst land slip here in 50 years apparently according to some.
You can also make out a few people down on the beach to give a sense of scale.
Best not to get too close to the edge up above, or to the cliff face down below unless you've always had a real yearning to be fossilised in the chalk just like an ammonite :)

Now they have got five big ones .
I went to day to see them all.
They all came out to see me ,and for me to feed them all.
They have still got brown feathers but a lot of white ones as well.
there were a few more of this nice white hills, but I found only space for seven of them on the camera sensor.
this monochrome picture was taken near needles, california, closed to route 66.
best viewed large!
A photography of the canals of the city of Amsterdam, at the confluence, where seven bridges meet, one after the other, in the Reguliersgracht canal, this point is a must-see photo of the city of Amsterdam.
Una fotografía de los canales de la ciudad de Ámsterdam, en la confluencia, donde siete puentes se encuentran, uno tras otro, en el canal Reguliersgracht, este punto es una foto imprescindible de la ciudad de Ámsterdam.
Un luogo suggestivo sulla più grande delle isole Aran. Si tratta delle rovine di un antico insediamento religioso, attorniate da un cimitero nel quale spiccano parecchie croci celtiche o croci di San Patrizio.
If I live to see the seven wonders
I'll make a path to the rainbow's end
I'll never live to match the beauty again

J'aime reposer ma tête sur l'épaule de mon mari adoré, tantôt reculer ou avancer mon front, pour mieux le contempler tour à tour de très loin ou de très près. Le manger du regard, lui tirer les cheveux, la moustache, puis lui présenter mes deux petites lèvres fraîches et rouges comme des cerises, tout en lui disant : Mets bien vite là ton petit bec sur ma bouche !
