Wildfires smoke from western Canada drifts across the country and impacts the weather and air quality on the coast of Maine. Tweaked to enhance the dangerous beauty of the moment.
La nostra atmosfera è l'unico luogo noto, finora, nel quale possiamo vivere.
Ci offre l'ossigeno per respirare, ci protegge dai raggi ultravioletti del sole che altrimenti ci distruggerebbero. Raccoglie l'energia del sole per muovere le nuvole e portare le piogge e, se possibile, per aiutarci a trasformare il vento in energia.
Tutto questo accade mentre non ci pensiamo... eppure, insieme al mare, è il luogo che stiamo inquinando di più, come se non servisse a nulla.

Buona giornata

For Whittier Police Officer Keith Boyer, a class mate of my husband as well as friend and protector to many.
A nice bright but windy day for a walk. The pond does have a thin covering of ice.
We are lucky, the weather here in Devon is mild by most peoples standards.

The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" on the 27th of October is "spider and/or spiderweb". since it is the closest Friday to Halloween. As an arachnophobe this theme was not an easy one for me, for it is unusual for me to have anything spider themed in my possession. I don’t have spiders in either my miniatures or my Playmobil collection, nor do I think Royal Doulton make spider statues from fine china. Luckily for me, I have one spider item in my house that is not a real or preserved spider – neither of which I would knowingly or willingly have in the first place.
The spider I have chosen is a very striking example of Art Deco, and happens to appear on one of my favourite perfume bottles in my extensive collection. Only ten centimetres in height from tip to bottom, this is a Josef Schmidt crystal perfume bottle, was made in Czechoslovakia around 1930. Epitomising the clean and stylish lines of Art Deco, it has a clear prismbeveled stopper and a spider on web attributed to Turriet and Bardach etched into it. The web has been picked out in thin strips of black enamel. I can just picture this on some flapper’s highly polished dressing table, filled with some exotic French perfume surrounded by silver brushes and mirrors. Can’t you?
I do hope you like my choice of this week’s theme and that it makes you smile.
I went up to Rainier on this day because the weather was crappy and I thought I'd hit the tourist spots while no one was looking. Had some great success, and some rain, and snow, and hail, but in between that there was this!
You are looking at the Nisqually Glacier from here and it's wonderful gouged out valley, one of the coolest things to see on the mountain itself. I'll enclose a pic without clouds in comments.
This insanely skinny house on Thurloe Square in Kensington is known as the Thin House and, at its narrowest end, is only 6ft wide.
Originally, back in the 19th Century, 5 Thurloe Square was an artist’s studio. Nowadays, it’s a pricey piece of property offering up a number of flats. Accommodations within the iconic skinny building are valued at anywhere between £850,000 and well north of £1 million (August 2024 pricing..)
Despite looking impossibly narrow from the southwest corner of Thurloe Square, it’s actually triangular, meaning it widens—albeit undramatically—from its skinniest point. It’s definitely one of London’s coolest optical illusions.

The Hjälmargården reaches the lake with amazing view. The lake size let's you just see a thin line of other side shore line. Such a cool view.
The leaves on the trees are thinning out now leaving a rich carpet below and allowing light to enter the forest that was quite dark a few weeks before.
Hi everyone, sorry for my absence, but I really needed some fresh sea air ! ;-)
I waited curiously and excitedly for the seagulls and wanted to photograph them in flight. But, as life would have it, the first thing I saw was a mallard duck. Normaly seagulls are real photobombs here. Not a big deal, because she positioned herself perfectly in this thin frame, (dunno what it is for) as if she had always been there and she bravely stayed put for 30 seconds. She moved a bit and looked more like a ghost of a duck. ;-) This is the Baltic Sea and the place is Heiligenhafen.
Thank you for visiting and taking the time to look at my photo and comment-it would also be a good point if you leave me a note ! ;-)
Ik was voor het werk even in Den Haag en heb, voor ik de trein weer naar Groningen hebt gepakt, wat foto's gemaakt van de hoogbouw rond het station.

Ich war geschäftlich in Den Haag und habe, bevor ich mit dem Zug zurück nach Groningen fuhr, ein paar Fotos von den Hochhäusern rund um den Bahnhof gemacht.

I was in The Hague for work and, before taking the train back to Groningen, I took some pictures of the high-rise buildings around the station.
