The first wow factor is when you first see the village from a distance of a few miles. Located on the hill with a stunning ancient castle on the top, as if it were a giant crown, the picturesque village piques your appetite for the adventure ahead.
The combination of medieval stone walls, white houses, and terracotta-colored roofs looked stunning and dramatic on a cloudy day. It instantly got me back in time.
but it is mainly the outcome of the need we have felt for making democracy such a good thing, like a scrubbed and shining schoolboy. Actually democracy partakes of the sweat and blood of the real world. It is grimy and dangerous and will never survive until it can learn to understand the ways of bullies and take its own part. I happen to care for it not because of any moral perfection it may have, but because it is by and large the best instrument I know for giving us the kind of world we want to live in :-)

"With life I get involved.
I suffer if it is to suffer,
I celebrate if there's a reason,
love without guarantees,
mistake the path, correct whatever is possible,
I lose with the same dignity with which I gain.
Because the only thing I don't want to take with me is the misfortune of not having enjoyed every second of the adventure of being who I am."(Pe Fabio de Melo)

The entire picture story:
meine.stimme.de/heilbronn/natur/der-fliegende-kater-d1711...
Life is different every day... sometimes good, sometimes "bad"... we are happy, we are sad...
There will always be things and even people who will fall through the cracks... We have to acknowledge this and accept it, there is nothing we can change in the past... in order to make the cracks smaller we should let the past teach us how to see the present.
I like to use the morning to set a goal for the day... the path to achieve it is the adventure. Some paths are easy, others not so much, but in the end they should all be meaningful.
A very unique waterfall! We had a lot of creek crossings while hiking through the canyon. Some areas had nice stepping stones while others were unstable slippery rocks. Quite the adventure!
In 1772 Captain Cook set off in the Resolution, accompanied by the Adventure, for what was to be a three-year voyage. In January 1773 the expedition crossed the Antarctic circle, probably the first ever to do so. Soon after, the Adventure anchored in Adventure Bay, Bruny Island/lunawanna-allonah.
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.
This is an image I likely wouldn't have posted, but after an interesting conversation with Flickr friend Flaushi & Friends on a swan she captured out on the ocean, I decided to share.
I had heard there was an owl at the lake not too far from work, so I decided to take a second trip (first trip was unsuccessful) after my shift to look for her. My daughter and faithful Border Collie, Bandit came along on the adventure.
After looking for a short time I spotted her out on the docks and walked around the shore trying to find a half decent angle to photograph her. In the meantime, a pair of mute swans swam over to see if we had brought them any goodies. I ignored them at first, since the owl had my full attention, but one of the two was quite persistent. He (or she) came right up to shore, stood up tall and was almost beak to nose with Bandit. Bandit was quite entertained and went into his usual OCD dance bouncing up and down on his hind legs and licking the ice at his feet. The swan wasn't at all phased and stretched out his long neck with an expectant look on his face. When he finally decided I had nothing for him, he swiftly ruffled his feathers and turned away from me. This was captured as he swam away glancing back with a look of disgust at my insensitivity for showing up empty handed.

According to the current theme, I was supposed to take a photo of an object or living thing that can hang in the air for a long time. Because I used to watch the adventures of SuperTed as a child, I thought it could be cool to take a photo of him. I wish I could fly too ;-)
De acuerdo con el tema propuesto, tenía que tomar una foto de un objeto o ser viviente que pudiera estar suspendido en el aire durante un período largo de tiempo. Como me gustaba ver las aventuras de SuperTed en la TV cuando era niña, pensé que sería una buena idea sacar una fotografía de este entrañable dibujo animado. Quién pudiera volar como él ;-)
Sam knew he had to get Charlie off of the cart before the shopkeeper came back. So he asked the shop owners dog, who's name happens to be Pugsly, if he had an idea. Pugsly was no help at all, and just said "woof". Then suddenly just like that, as if by magic, that woof sent down a single leaf.
"Catch it Charlie, Catch the leaf" said Sam. "You can do it Charlie!" Sam yells. "I'm trying Sam!" Charlie yells with a tremor in his terrified little voice.

When I did my last photo I remembered Venxia, a place I have not visited a long time.
Venexia is a dark role-play SIM and in my opinion one of the building highlights in second life.

Wow, what a challenge! I just conquered a fast-moving stream by rock-hopping – talk about an adrenaline rush! Luckily, the rope helped keep everyone balanced.
After pushing through those trees, I finally emerged onto a stunning black rock beach at Lake Nordenskjöld. The water was glacial and crystal-clear, but swimming is a no-go in the park. Still, it was breathtaking – and there were even some brave souls sunbathing on the rocks!
Feeling energized, I checked my altimeter – 70 meters (230 feet) above sea level! My destination for the night, Mountain Hostel Francés, sits another 50 meters (164 feet) higher at 120 meters (394 feet). Relief washed over me – those 17 kilometers (10,56 miles) seemed much shorter now!
While hiking on the beach, I thought I was about to score some delicious Pisco Sours – I was practically celebrating already! But then I checked my map, and my heart sank. It showed a crazy distance – 3,200 kilometers (1,988 miles) or 1.5 hours left! Yikes! Thankfully, it was just a misplaced decimal point, not the end of my happy hour dreams. Phew! Back on the trail, and definitely keeping a closer eye on that map from now on! ️
Now, here I am at the base of the incredible Cuernos del Paine with the even grander Paine Grande in the distance – the park's highest peak! Between them lies the majestic Francés Valley, my reward for conquering tomorrow's hike on day three of the W Trail. My hostel is nestled between these two giants, right on another beach.
Time to ditch the complaining and embrace the adventure – climbs, descents, and epic scenery await! Here's to unplugging and soaking it all in.
Beartooth Mountain : Tallest peak 12,799 ft.
Beartooth Pass at 10, 947 feet offers a wonderful view as you make your way up the well-maintained road 212. The late Charles Kuralt (former CBS News reporter) named it “The Most Beautiful Drive in America.” The scenic drive passes through North West Wyoming and South-Central Montana. The road is closed in the winter and early spring. Stop in Cooke City to check road conditions. You can also ask Rangers as you leave YNP. As you can see there is lots of snow! Sudden snow storms can close the road for a few hours or a few days. This shot was taken June2, 2024. In some areas, the snow looked to be 12 feet high. During some years, visitors come to play in the snow on the 4th of July. This area is very close to the YNP. Keep your eyes open for mountain goats and marmots. Allow 2-3 hours for the adventure to the top and return to Cooke City. There are many pull offs to view snow, falls, and animals. Have your picture made by the sign at Beartooth Pass.

Happy mid-weekend, everyone! I have been a bit absent from the Flickrsz the last month or so... I have scampered through sporadically, but yes, catch up time for me again, and I can't wait to see the adventures you have all been sharing! I hope everyone has been happy, well and safe.
Here, I'm dancing the night away with my beautiful, super dear friend, Sparkle, 'cause we are both weird sleep freaks and night owls of the uppermost order! Sparkle so completely lives up to her name too, let me tell you! She shines from the inside out with megawatt light, and I swear she got in line twice when they were doling out beauty, intellect, charisma, mad artistic talent and kindness. You can't know her and not adore her. Love you, Sparkling Sassy Thing!! Oh, and I owe her an extra special thank you for working her artsy magic on my unintentional trademark hair glitches in this and for making our elbows look pretty doggone groovy too ... yep, I said that!
I hope you are all having super happy adventures in real life as well as in your online travels, and I am sending everyone heaps of love! xoxo 💕❤️

A long exposure shot of the inner harbour at Whitby of the fishing vessels moored up.I liked this particular shot because of the clarity of the reflections of the boats and the lights,however it is water and it is ot perfectly still even when you think it is resulting in some blurring of the smaller coble. I'm sure there is a technique to counter this and would be happy for anyone to point me in the right direction.
I was also impressed that the local council had gone to the effort of light painting the lobster pots with a spotlight,appreciated.
Many thanks for viewing this and other images in my photo stream.
Deze sleutelhanger is van het Mammoetrallyteam dat niet meer bestaat. Maar Martin van den Brink rijdt nog altijd mee. Inmiddels zit zijn zoon ook achter het stuur en doet hij heel goed mee.
De sleutelhanger heb ik gekregen tijdens een van de Dakar Preprologen. Een evenement dat niet meer bestaat.
Een deelname aan de rally is duur, misschien wel te duur. Geen Nederlandse motoren dit jaar, wel 6 deelnemers in de challenger klasse, ook bij de auto's en de classics 6 deelnemende Nederlandse teams. Bij de trucks een tegenvallende lijst van 8 Nederlandse teams. Dat waren er ooit wel 3x zo veel.
Het avontuur is drie dagen onderweg, ik kan dus nog even genieten.
Ik heb de foto in RAW opgeslagen en bewerkt tot foto.
Achtergrond is een foto van de Abu Dhabi woestijn waar ik in 2019 was.
This key ring belongs to the Mammoetrallyteam that no longer exists. But Martin van den Brink still drives. His son is now also behind the wheel and is doing very well.
I received the key ring during one of the Dakar Preprologues. An event that no longer exists.
Participation in the rally is expensive, perhaps too expensive. No Dutch motorcycles this year, but 6 participants in the challenger class, also 6 Dutch teams participating in the cars and the classics. A disappointing list of 8 Dutch teams for the trucks. There used to be 3x as many.
The adventure is three days underway, so I can still enjoy it for a while.
I saved the photo in RAW and edited it into a photo.
Background is a photo of the Abu Dhabi desert where I was in 2019.

Now that parts of the world are opening back up, what adventures are you longing for?
This one did take several attempts to get what i was after. After a couple of failed sunset versions, i took the adventure wagon through the tiny, and i mean that, roads across the moor well before sunrise to allow time to trek up the hillside for the shot. It was magical to wait and watch for the first rays to catch the distant fellside and then gradually floodlight the valley. (f/9, 67 mm, 1/30th second at ISO 125. Timer and manual exposure)
