The hybrid Le Mans prototype racer (LMP1 category) from Toyota shown on the Shanghai Auto Show 2013.
The powertrain of this vehicle consists of a normally aspirated 3.4 litre V8 petrol engine (395kW, 530hp) and a boosting 224kW (300hp) electric motor. The electric motor is located within the gearbox casing on the rear axle.
Power for the electric motor comes from a supercapacitor, which itself is charged by the braking energy. The brakes are electronically controlled to determine how much of the braking force comes from the hydraullic brakes and from the regenerative brakes respectively (KERS, Kinetic Energy Recovery System).

Mont Fort is a mountain of the Pennine Alps, located near Verbier in the Swiss canton of Valais. It lies on the range between the valleys of Bagnes and Nendaz, north of the Rosablanche. With a height of 3,329 metres above sea level, Mont Fort is the highest summit north of the Col de Louvie (2,921 m).
Mont Fort is surrounded by several glaciers, the largest being the Glacier de Tortin, on its northwestern side. The second largest is the Glacier du Mont Fort, located on its northeastern side. On its eastern side lies the lower summit Petit Mont Fort (3,135 m). The Glacier du Petit Mont Fort lies between the two summits. There are no glaciers on the south side of the mountain. A small lake named Lac du Petit Mont Fort (2,764 m) lies on the south flank.
The summit of Mont Fort is easily accessible by cable car from the heights of Verbier or Nendaz. The cable cars from the two valleys converge at the intermediate station (2,894 m) north of the Col des Gentianes, the upper section reaching a height of 3,308 metres. In the winter and early spring season, the mountain, including the Glacier de Tortin, is the culminating point of the 4 Vallées ski area.
Der Mont Fort ist mit einer Höhe von 3'329,0 m ü. M. der höchste mit einer Bahn erschlossene Berg in der Region 4 Vallées in den Walliser Alpen. Der Berg ist von Verbier aus zu erreichen mit der Gondelbahn und Sessellift nach La Chaux - Luftseilbahn Col des Gentianes - Mont Fort. Auf der Plattform der Bergstation befindet sich ein Iglu mit 25 Plätzen, in dem man sich mit einem Fondue verpflegen kann. Von der Bergstation der Seilbahn führt ein felsiger Steig zum Gipfel-Kreuz. Von der Spitze des Mont Fort sieht man über fünfzig Berggipfel, darunter das Matterhorn, den Dent Blanche, den Dent d’Hérens und den Mont Blanc. In der näheren Umgebung sind die vergletscherten Gipfel von Rosablanche und des Grand Combins mit dem Glacier de Corbassière zu sehen.[1]
Die 125-Personen-Seilbahn aus Richtung Siviez über Tortin zum Col des Gentianes wurde 1982 gebaut, ebenso ein Gletscherlift auf dem Glacier de Tortin. Später wurde ein parallel verlaufender Gletscherlift ergänzt. Die Gipfelbahn wurde 1983 fertiggestellt. Die als Jumbo titulierte Pendelbahn (150 Personen-Gondel) aus Richtung Verbier von La Chaux zum Col des Gentianes wurde 1987 gebaut. Der Sommerskibetrieb wurde 1999 eingestellt. Seit der Wintersaison 2007/2008 können auch die Gletscherlifte nicht mehr betrieben werden.
This photo was taken on the summit of the Mont Blanc (4810 metres). In the background you can see the Aiguille du Midi and one part of the 4000's route to ascent Mont Blanc peak too.
Below clouds it's Chamonix-Mont-Blanc.
The feelings were indescribable. Since I was a child, I had always wanted to climb this mountain. But I hadn't found the moment and people to do it.
Finally, I had the option to achieve my old wish and get it. The day was magnificent, the wind and temperature were perfect.
On the summit I couldn't stop crying. There were too much emotions to assimilate. Indeed, I had already climbed higher mountains than Mont Blanc, but it was my childhood wish and I got it successfully.

Las formas redondeadas de las copas de los sauces en la garganta del Barbellido .No tienen un color muy llamativo pero me encanta la uniformidad que ofrecen sus copas juntas como nubes de algodón.

After only 2 days of shot raining we are again with 30ºC today it looks summer its here to stay and Autumn doesn´t want to arrive. I think its already to much hot this year and it will be good if the temperature goes down and it will be rain because rain is very necessary for all also.

Two mallard drakes battle it out to win the duck at the start of the mating games in Bushy Park earlier this year.
The flickr autotagger calls this sport.....and I guess it is right.
Typically I find Sandhill Cranes rummaging through stubbly cornfields so it was mildly exciting to find several frolicking in nice blue water.

Batalla de Torrelobaton. Guerra de las Comunidades.
Juan de Padilla al mando de 6000 infantes, 600 hombres a caballo y una potente artillería puso sitio a Torrelobaton, importante punto estratégico y posesión del Almirante de Castilla. El asedio a la población duro cuatro días, esta cayo el 24 de Febrero de 1521, Padilla amenazo al alcaide del castillo con ahorcar a toda la población si no se rendía. Ante esto, el alcaide rindió el castillo que de otra forma hubiera sido muy difícil de tomar. La artillería comunera causo importantes desperfectos en el castillo, las almenas quedaron desmochadas. Fue restaurado en 1538, se sustituyeron las almenas por el parapeto de cierre que culmina toda las partes superiores del castillo.
Presenta un excelente estado de conservación.
