47/52 Pick one place and don’t move from it for one hour making as many beautiful images as you can from that one point of view.
I didn't think I'd have time to do this challenge but a perfect hoar frost prompted me to delay pre-vacation chores for an hour to zip to a local park and marvel at the sights. It was a bit cold to stay in exactly the one spot but I tried :)
Thought that I was going crazy
Just having one those days yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music you were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
'cause baby when I heard you
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one
Was tired of running out of luck
Thinking 'bout giving up yeah
Didn't know what to do
Then there was you
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music you were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
'cause baby when I heard you
For the first time
I knew we were meant to be as one
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music you were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight

"What are you afraid of
I know that you are
Keep it in your sights now
And don’t let it go far"
Happy Sunday morning all,
Every now and then one gets a rare and unexpected sighting on safari. This particular morning was one such occasion.
This is an image of a honey badger, a nocturnal animal which is very rarely seen during daylight hours. It was a first for me and a first for our guide as well. We came across a den and had the pleasure of actually seeing two of them. The one featured here was the active one, running back and forth in a repetitive pattern between a point in the distance and the den.
Getting this image required figuring out the behavioural pattern and getting as low down in the vehicle as possible. Doing these things allowed one to be able to enter the world of this fascinating and rarely seen animal.

Aufgrund einer baubedingten Totalsperrung der Main-Weser-Bahn für den Ausbau der S-Bahn-Linie S6 in den ersten beiden Wochen der hessischen Osterferien 2023 wurden durch den Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund zur Abdeckung der Verkehrsströme montags bis freitags zusätzliche Züge als RE 16 zwischen Friedberg (Hess) und Frankfurt (Main) bestellt. Diese aus Lokomotiven der Baureihe 245 mit Doppelstockwagen gebildeten Züge nahmen aber nicht etwa den Weg über Hanau, sondern über die eingleisige Strecke Friedberg (Hess) - Rosbach v d Höhe - Friedrichsdorf (Ts) und dann weiter über die "Homburger Bahn" nach Frankfurt (Main) Hbf. Hier sehen wir 245 018 mit RE 99041 Friedberg (Hess) - Frankfurt (Main) Hbf im Bahnhof Bad Homburg, welchen er ohne Halt durchfährt. Das stattliche Gebäude des Kaiserbahnhofs (Homburg vor der Höhe war eine beliebte Sommerresidenz von Kaiser Wilhelm II.) wurde am 26. Oktober 1907 in Betrieb genommen und bildet eine würdige Kulisse für diesen dort nicht alltäglichen Zug.
###
Due to a construction-related total closure of the Main-Weser-Bahn for the extension of the S-Bahn line S6 in the first two weeks of the Hessian Easter holidays 2023, additional trains were ordered by the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund as RE 16 between Friedberg (Hess) and Frankfurt (Main) to cover the traffic flows on Mondays to Fridays. These trains, consisting of class 245 locomotives with double-decker coaches, did not take the route via Hanau, but via the single-track line Friedberg (Hess) - Rosbach v d Höhe - Friedrichsdorf (Ts) and then via the "Homburger Bahn" to Frankfurt (Main) Hbf. Here we see 245 018 with RE 99041 Friedberg (Hess) - Frankfurt (Main) Hbf in Bad Homburg station, which it passes through without stopping. The impressive building of the Kaiserbahnhof (Homburg vor der Höhe was a popular summer residence of Kaiser Wilhelm II) was put into service on 26 October 1907 and forms a commendable backdrop for this train, which is not a common sight there.

Piranga rubra -female- (Summer tanager / Piranga abejera)
The only completely red bird in North America, the strawberry-colored male Summer Tanager is an eye-catching sight against the green leaves of the forest canopy.
The mustard-yellow female is harder to spot, though both sexes have a very distinctive chuckling call note. Fairly common during the summer, these birds migrate as far as the middle of South America each winter.
Channel 4 TV headquarters, London. Looking up from the atrium. My little camera just can't handle these ultra wide angle shots.
From the same balcony where yesterdays post comes from, but know looking further to the left and south, is Mount Baker. A local resident tells us how rare this sighting can be. And, that it happens around 11 times a year. Given a 6' person can see about 5KM into the distance, one can better understand how unique this is. Mt. Baker is aprox. 200km from where I am standing, but I am high on a hill. It is also necessary that the air be as clear as possible.
The setting sun made all the difference that night, shining its brilliance on the mountain. However, when those amazing warm rays were finished shining, Mt Baker melted into the background., and disappeared from view. With a bluish coloured fog over the inlet, an almost lime coloured hue in the sky, this moment was special, and delivered a gem of a shot.

A sighting of our neighborhood fox in early morning light showed her sporting her new winter coat and a better body condition! I am headed to San Francisco to be with family for the holidays. Wishing everyone a good Thanksgiving! Remember, no talking about politics at the dinner table....no food fights!
Rob takes a moment to watch 40145 pass over Artren Gill Viaduct on 1Z43 Skipton to Appleby, the clouds had parted some 10 minutes before the arrival of the Staycation Express providing some welcome sun for the passage of the train.
My first sight of the snow capped mountains in Montana. I did a little extra processing on this just because it felt right.
Thanks for looking!
There had been a kill during the night and we were not sure if it had been a lion kill or if the hyenas had taken something down . There at least thirty hyenas in the area and some were resting after a full meal while others were still eating and then there were some off guarding a bone that they had been able to grab. Truly an amazing sight to see ant to hear the hyenas in real life is over the top !!
Wishing all a very pleasant and blessed day !!
This same White Squirrel from the previous photos jumped from tree to tree, to tree until he landed on the Willow tree along the river. He stopped here to take a little rest,keeping a watchful eye on me then ran around the other side of the huge tree and slipped into a hole near the top of the tree, out of sight!
milkweed (also known as 'silkweed' or 'gypsy feathers' in Croatia; my first sighting of the plant as it is not very common in my part of the world)

Three tiny juvenile snails, fattening themselves up for overwintering. The leaf is backlit by sunshine so the translucent eye stalks allow the light to glow through.
The image shows a line-up of three snails/six eye stalks for Macro Mondays theme 'In a Row'.
It was W.C. Fields who said "Never work with children or animals." Perhaps he was referring specifically to snails?
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
