The Takachiho Railway, which once ran through Takachiho Town in Nishiusuki-gun, Miyazaki Prefecture, is now the Amaterasu Railway. This popular local train crosses Japan’s highest railway bridge (105 meters). The former Takachiho Railway stopped operating due to damages caused by a typhoon in 2005. Amaterasu Railway’s own original Grand Supercart now plies this line, giving passengers the opportunity to enjoy the magnificent views.

The Himalayas, or Himalaya, form a mountain range in Asia separating the plains of the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau.
The Himalayan range has many of the Earth's highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest. The Himalayas include over fifty mountains exceeding 7,200 metres (23,600 ft) in elevation, including ten of the fourteen 8000m peaks. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia – Aconcagua, in the Andes – is 6,961 metres (22,838 ft) tall.
The Himalayan range is bordered on the northwest by the Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges, on the north by the Tibetan Plateau, and on the south by the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The Himalayas are distinct from the other great ranges of central Asia, although sometimes the term Himalaya is loosely used to include the Karakoram and some of the other ranges. The Himalayas – inhabited by 52.7 million people – are spread across five countries: India, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Pakistan, with the first three countries having sovereignty over most of the range. Some of the world's major rivers, the Indus, the Ganges, and the Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, rise in the Himalayas, and their combined drainage basin is home to roughly 600 million people. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of the Indian subcontinent; many Himalayan peaks are sacred in Hinduism and Buddhism.
Lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan mountain range runs, west-northwest to east-southeast, in an arc 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) long.
Lạnh lùng 1 chút đễ chẵng phãi yêu thương ai . Khép kín 1 chút đễ tránh đi sự ồn ào cũa hàng nghìn con người đang tồn tại !!!
Bjết chấp nhận . Và cẫn thận bước đi - Nỗi đau tôi giấu , bạn thấu được bao nhiêu ?
Chẵng muốn thừa nhận . Nhưng thật sự là tui đang rất buồn !!!!!!!
Dingri དིང་རི། county
Also known as Tingri. The westernmost parts of Tsang province are traditionally known as Lato, the`highland`region of Tibet; and this vast area is devided into North Lato and South Lato. The county is bordered on the south by the high Himalayan range, including Mount Everest (Tib. Jomo Langma ཇོ་མོ་གླང་མ ), Makalu, and Cho Oyu (Tib. Jowo Oyuk ཇོ་བོ་ ཨོ་ ཡུ་). In recent decades, the whole of South Lato, along with neighbouring Tingkye county, has been incorporated into the vast Jomo Langma National Nature Reserve (area 33.819 sq km). The county capital is Shelkar, Area: 14.156 sq km. www.footprinttravelguides.com/c/2848/tibet/&Action=pr...
Livestock mobility, flexible use of rangelands, and diverse herds were key elements of traditional nomadic pastoral practices throughout the world and contributed to the high ecological stability of pastoral systems.
Nomads are still found today on the Tibetan Plateau and Himalaya. Known in the Tibetan language as drokpa, translating as “high-pasture people,” there are an estimated two million Tibetan-speaking nomads spread over a vast area. Throughout the Tibetan areas of what is now the People’s Republic of China and in the northern parts of Bhutan, India and Nepal, nomads are an important element in the economy and society wherever they are found, but their way of life is disappearing.

A bewitching smile and oodles of attitude. This little girl at the Tughlaqabad fort won our hearts with her confident posing.
This weekend I did absolutely nothing. And I mean nothing. I’ve finished processing all the weddings and other shoots, burned DVDs, crated albums. There was a point at 3pm on Saturday that I was so bored) that Jessica said, “lets get out of here and go drive somewhere.” So we did. Went up north and ended up doing a very short hike in Carpinteria. Finally found a way to make it to see this pier, which isn’t a pier at all but some sort of industrial crane. Ugly. But had some dramatic clouds to play around with and instead of actually going down to the water and using the bedrock and tide pools as foreground, stuck on top of the cliff and shot the sunset (which lasted for about 20 seconds) from up there. Used my Singh Ray .9 RGND to keep the clouds at the same exposure. Gold Jerry, GOLD!
I only took this one photo. That’s all I can honestly said I did all weekend. Mental holiday. Needed it.
Hope yours was relaxing too
Anadolu bozkırlarında sadece karıncalar değildir; gece gündüz demeden çalışan. Büyük acıları yaşamaya alışık bedenleriyle, köylü kadınlar, adamlar, yorulmak nedir bilirde, aldırmaz! Nasırlı ellerinin acıları kocaman yüreklerinde söner gider!
Delivered new to Qantas in October 1967 as VH-EBX and later flying for British Caledonian as G-BCAL, this Boeing 707 was flying for Transporte Aereo Rioplatense (TAR Cargo) when photographed at New York JFK in August 1983. She was broken up at MIA in 1994.
This is a quick model I made back in 2014. I made the water base for when I display it at my next upcoming event, Japan Brickfest 2018. Yes, I’m aware TARS never went for a swim. That was CASE!
