Of course, this is heavily processed, but this tree really did stand apart from all the other trees and looked very white compared with them.

Mary Tyler Moored passing had me going through shots I took in Minneapolis a few years ago. We can now say she quietly and indelibly influenced women's rights.
Continuing this week's 'Spitfire' theme - here is a profile view of a Spitfire Mk 1. A key feature is the barely perceptible, tapering, twist to the wing. The leading edge points upwards by 2 degrees where it joins the body, reducing to half a degree at the tip. This subtle twist greatly improved the handling for pilots, but made the structure far more difficult to manufacture. The wing was the design of Canadian-born aerodynamicist Beverley Shenstone, an unsung hero of the Spitfire story.
This aircraft carries the Eagle Squadron badge. Three RAF squadrons were formed with volunteer airmen from the USA in 1940 before American entry into WW2. About 240 men served, of whom around 100 perished. In Sept 1942, the US airmen transferred to the US 8th Army Air Force. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Squadrons

Machu Picchu 20221127
The structures of Machu Picchu were constructed with stones that seem to have been molded as if before hardening had been made of clay. All this skillful Inca stonework has made this Inca site worth visiting at one point in your life. Visiting Machu Picchu will make you admire the Inca architecture and hydraulic engineering. The structures were carefully designed and placed facing celestial bodies and also outlining mountains.

I was wandering around the shoreline near the old Dumbarton Bridge in Newark, California, capturing photons bouncing off driftwood when I found this; what appears to be a small piece of root structure from something. Looked cool though.

A macro view of pitaya reveals a hidden logic of matter — a rhythm of forms and colors that shifts the fruit from flavor to structure with its own quiet dynamics.
I’m getting a bit addicted to my 16mm close-ups. It is just amazing what kind shots I come home with.
The lovely structures on the beach find a mirror in the sky above.
Metropol Parasol is a wooden structure located at La Encarnación square, in the old quarter of Seville, Spain. It was designed by the German architect Jürgen Mayer and completed in April 2011. It has dimensions of 150 by 70 metres (490 by 230 ft) and an approximate height of 26 metres (85 ft) and claims to be the largest wooden structure in the world. Its appearance, location, delays and cost overruns in construction resulted in much public controversy. The building is popularly known as Las Setas de la Encarnación (Incarnation's mushrooms).

The Buff Tailed Bumblebee is one of the most numerous bumblebee species in Europe and has been and maybe still is used in greenhouses for pollination purposes. Nests are usually found underground such as in abandoned rodent dens. Colonies form comb-like nest structures with egg cells each containing several eggs. The queen will lay egg cells on top of one another, the colonies produce between 300/400 bees on average with a large variation in the number of workers, this ensures a division of labour and efficient colony functioning. Workers are entirely female and mainly forage for food, defend the colony and tend to the growing larvae. Unlike queens and workers who develop from fertile eggs the male bees are born from unfertilized eggs and they leave the colony shortly after reaching adulthood to find a mate outside the nest and mating is their sole role in their new colony.
