same bear as posted yesterday. He is young here and I'd imagine by now he is huge. This was taken in 2013 and if he's grown into his legs and paws, he is a boar to reckon with.
Here he is just across the river from me and I had a 500mm lens with a 1.4x on it. no crop or anything. Taken at 10:15 PM
It was a rainy day in New York City. I was hanging out the window of our car, we were moving at 40 mph, maybe on 42nd Street, and it was lunchtime, not night. So you see, some improvising was necessary!

One World Trade Center, towering over its neighbors, the tallest building in the United States....counting the spire, of course....
Tall Ships at Blyth, Northumberland. The Tall Ships in dock waiting to set sail in the 2016 Tall Ships North Sea Regatta race from Blyth to Gothenburg, Sweden.
A great day spent viewing these beautiful gals!
Yes, Digitalis is usually tall, but these specimens, growing against our wood stack, are particularly tall and straight.
Bluebells at Crabtree plantation Basingstoke. These are particularly tall the leaves now emerging on the trees they are fighting for light.
That tall shadow belongs to a short quince...no, it's not a pear. I've never eaten one before but I'm not sure you can eat them raw. I've had quince paste so maybe they always need to be cooked first.

Another support that persistence give results. Trees are super rare on this mountain in Dalarna, but this one manages just fine.

A threefer! One flower and two bees.
Tall Globe-thistle: European species of globe thistle in the family Asteraceae. It is native to central and eastern Europe from Germany and Italy east into Russia. The species has escaped cultivation and become established in the wild in scattered locations in eastern Canada and the northern United States.
It is the largest of all globe thistles, a branching perennial herb up to 150 cm (60 inches or 5 feet) tall. One plant can produces several flower heads, each with a very nearly spherical array of white or pale blue disc florets but no ray florets.
Brown-belted Bumble Bee (lower centre): It is native to much of the United States except for the Southwest, and to the southernmost regions of several of the provinces of Canada. This bumblebee can occupy many kinds of habitat, including meadows, wetlands, agricultural fields, and urban areas, even densely populated cities.
Western Honey Bee (upper right): One of the first domesticated insects, and the primary species maintained by beekeepers to this day for both its honey production and pollination activities. With human assistance, the western honey bee now occupies every continent except Antarctica. (Wikipedia)

We visited the Ornamental Gardens, part of Ottawa's Experimental Farm a couple of weeks ago. These thistle flowers were just alive with bees and other pollinators. I was lucky to capture this flower head with two different bee species.

Called the "Escorial de Levante". It was built between the early sixteenth until the mid-eighteenth century. Was once the former University of Orihuela and today is a nursery, a primary and a secondary school at the same time.
Been awhile since I posted an image of this massive mountain.
A compressed shot looking NW as the morning light hit this highest peak on the continent.
This impressive mountain was known to the Athabaskan and many other native tribes as Denali (“The High/Tall One”) and to the Russians as Bolshaya Gora (“Great Mountain”). An easy one to name...
"Denali is the highest mountain peak in North America, with a summit elevation of 20,310 feet (6,190 m) above sea level. With a topographic prominence of 20,156 feet (6,144 m) and a topographic isolation of 4,629 miles (7,450 km), Denali is the third most prominent and third most isolated peak on Earth, after Mount Everest and Aconcagua."

Happy Friday!
A Singapore Airlines plane almost successfully hiding behind the building, except its tail giving it away. A slight mirage effect happening on the right, from the exhaust of another plane.
Standing tall the Roker lighthouse see’s a brief respite in the incessant pounding as sun gets a momentary look at this fine structure. The plan is to one day leave the family home and head south to be nearer our children. If we can ever decide on where then when, this icon will be a big miss to me, but I know it will be forever standing tall.
This great old Bureau County barn is holding up pretty well considering the farm around has been pretty well gone for a long time...
Tucson is entering the dry summer season. The high temperature yesterday was in the upper eighties (Deg F).
The evenings are still cool.

This is one of the high towers of the Millau Viaduct in my opinion one of the beautiful structures build in the last 30 years. The bridge spans the valley of the Tarn River in Southern France. It’s the highest road platform in Europe
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT HAVE A GREAT DAY
