This image was taken on a strict 'no tripod' tour. Thus the POV because I was using a table top that no one noticed or cared about. Going for dark. This is an HDR, 5 frames. This cave almost ate my camera! I was walking done some wet steps and slipped, my camera was heading for the ground, sure to bust, so I contorted my fall to land on my wrist instead, saving the camera. My wrist did not fare so well, but wrists heal. Cameras do not.
Minnetonka Cave is the largest limestone rock cave in the state of Idaho. It is located in Cache National Forest in Bear Lake County, Idaho, United States, above the village of St. Charles (located at the north end of Bear Lake). Tours through the cave are offered from Memorial Day (weather permitting) through Labor Day by Scenic Canyons Recreational Services, the concessionaire that holds the special use permit from the United States Forest Service. The half-mile route through the cave is lined with stalactites and stalagmites.
This Phone book has all the listings for the whole state...lol..It's only an inch thick..I am not listed in it...Darn!
This time of year makes for spectacular crepuscular rays with the sun rising behind the Grand Teton as viewed from Teton Valley, Idaho.
This crane fly was asleep on the garbage bin lid when I opened the garage yesterday morning.

This is the same wagon as the one viewed in the previous picture (91010) . The former OBA - previously pictured with sides removed - is now seen with the half height steel ends also removed. When EWS took over flask trains from B.R. they inherited these wagons but when DRS took over from EWS, EWS took the PFAs with them.
In 1994 the Waste Monitoring and Compaction Plant (WAMAC) at Sellafield entered into active commissioning and began compacting solid Low Level Waste for disposal to the Low Level Waste Repository (LLWR) at Drigg using half height ISO containers designated TC-01 (2910 series). Prior to that, waste had been moved in commercially available industrial waste skips. A more robust type of re-useable container was tried in the 1990s but was short lived because the WAMAC system rendered them redundant.
Containers like this, designated TC-05 remained in use for many years in the nuclear industry but after 1995 saw little use on trains.
This is in area called Zamlaka which is located in Gouta near Damascus.

This is a loose recreation of Abu Simbel, the famous temple carved into the side of a mountaon in Egypt.
This is a creation for the MCCVI over at classic castle.

This bridge crosses Amsterdam’s Singel canal, which encircled the city in the Middle Ages. It served as a moat around the city until 1585, when Amsterdam expanded beyond the Singel. The canal is now lined by many beautiful, richly decorated traditional gable houses built during the Dutch Golden Age.

This property is currently being abated of asbestos, hopefully the building will be saved. Don't let me down Connecticut! Preserve history.
This is a watchtower on an island in the Port Emerald Harbor. It is one of the first finished buildings built out of stone in the new colony. It is part of the part of the formidable harbor defenses, and its garrison watches at all times for pirates or anything which would threaten ships. It has three colored lanterns at the corners which are used for navigation at night, and a powerful catapult weapon for use against enemy ships. This catapult is of a new type which uses arms made of an elastic wood found
in New Lenfald to provide its power, since the twisted rope torsion springs of normal ballistas stretch and become useless in the humidity of the tropics.
This tower is from considerably later in the history of the colony than my New Lenfald series so far has been, since it is built of finished stone. I think it is roughly contemporary with GC XII.
Comments, critique and advice welcome.
I am a little late for the weekly theme, but I didn’t get this done last week and I wanted to introduce myself. It’s been a few years since I did a “proper” selfie, so I wanted to update my “official” Flickr photo as well.
I am Linda, and am a 60-something widow. The past few years have been full of changes for me, as my husband passed away and I moved to an easier to maintain home in a subdivision after 36 years in the country. I am adjusting to “city living” and love my new home and neighborhood. I discovered Flickr in 2013, and photography and the Flickr community has gotten me through some rough patches. I have been challenged with chronic fatigue syndrome and chemical sensitivites for 20 years now, and I love photography because it is something creative I can do that matches my energy level. On my good days I get out my DSLR and experiment, and on my “bad” days, I can take something easy with my iPhone. I have completed two 365s so far, and attempted several others. Last year I only got halfway. This year I am taking it a day at a time, and we’ll see what happens. :-)

This bush is located right on the salt marsh edge of South East London, where the River Darenth offers a permanent boundary with Kent and The Thames flows past with the Essex shore to the north.
The bush does not look as though it was specially planted to mark the location- but perhaps it should have been. There is an initiative known as en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Trees_of_London Perhaps this one should be added to it when it grows a bit.
"Al" the Allen's Hummingbird greeted me again at the Los Angeles County Arboretum. I recognize him - the little bit of whatever attached to his throat was there a week earlier !! He needs a bib !! Hit "L" for a closer look.
This is one in a series of HDR's taken on a beach when a storm was approaching.
If you like this one you're invited to view the others.
This giraffe aimed for a tree that, to the untrained eye, looked like it was leafless and without nutrition.
Make me smile! :-)

This is another shot taken from the sunrise on the Ferry in North Sydney, I loved the way the sun was lighting the water between the pans of ice in this shot
This rhododendron is in my front yard and is one that I had trouble finding when I planted the Bed... It has been around for at least a hundred years so I guess people want the newer ones and not the old standbys....I also have a Cynthia in the back yard but it isn't blooming yet... I put this one in the little video but wanted it so I could see it all the time :-)
The whole “Sf. Jacob - Barătia” Catholic Church is made up of three distinct elements:
The Bărăția Church, dedicated to Saint Jacob, built in the 13th century. The original choir, built in Gothic style, on ribs, has been preserved to this day. The nave of the church has been decommissioned over time but its foundations have been updated during the restorations of the years 1963-1965. The present form of the church dates from 1760. Inside the church is the tomb of the Saxon committee Laurențiu from Câmpulung, who died in 1300.
The Bărăția Tower. The foundation and the first two levels of the bell tower were built in 1730 in place of an older tower. The last floor with a clock and a pointed roof dates from the end of the 19th century.
The Parish House dating from the 17th century.
This distinctive 1.5-story residence stands as one of Pacific Grove’s larger early homes, showcasing a strong Queen Anne influence through its intact architectural features and period craftsmanship. The steeply pitched gable roof is adorned with decorative boxed cornices and fishscale shingles, echoed again in the gable detailing. A small front porch, bracketed and embellished with fishscale shingles, welcomes visitors, while a large rear porch offers additional outdoor space. The exterior is clad in horizontal wood drop siding, and a charming bay window with two bracketed cut-away corners adds visual interest and stylistic flair. Windows are segmented 1-over-1, framed with decorative sills and trim, and complemented by stained or leaded glass and transoms. The house retains its original form and materials, with the exception of the expanded rear porch, and remains a well-preserved example of Queen Anne design from Pacific Grove’s Early Development period (1873–1902), notable for its authenticity, craftsmanship, and architectural integrity.
This is the Skyline of Toronto Ontario Canada from about 25 Km away in Oakville. I'am standing by the lighthouse looking east across the bay, along Lake Ontario, Looking east at the CN Tower.
RHS Garden Harlow Carr is one of four public gardens run by the Royal Horticultural Society. It is located on the western edge of Harrogate in the English county of North Yorkshire.
During my time in Italy, I had marvelous weather with only about one day of rain. This was wonderful for traveling but not so great for any kind of spectacular cloud effects when trying to shoot sunsets. This sunset was taken off one of the piers in Sorrento in the Bay of Naples.
This is a redesign of the old playset from 2008.
I tried to keep the ship as compact as possible while also being able to place a Delta-7 Jedi Starfighter in it's hangar.
This church, built during XII-XV centuries, is considered one the finest examples of Romanesque art in the world, especially for its sculptures.
Эта церковь, построенная в течение XII-XV веков, считается одним из самых выдающихся примеров искусства в романском стиле, особенно её скульптуры.
This is the final photograph in this chronicles series and it's one of my favourites ever taken of a No.19 in the Conwy Valley. With a scenic high terrain backdrop and budding Spring trees, CN65 DHG (2158) climbs up the valley past Caerhun cemetery with the 07:40 Betws-y-Coed - Llandudno.
After 18 years, it's Arrivaderci to the sight of Arriva's vehicles in this beautiful part of the country.

This little robin just kept getting closer and closer today so much so that I had to move back! Posed beautifully next to a little daisy!
This group of photos were taken near the PULSE Night Club in downtown Orlando. Governor of the State of Florida Rick Scott was there to comfort some friends of victims and many reporters are still on the scene. The PULSE night club itself was heavily fortified by law enforcement and many people are setting up a memorial place near Orland Health, where is about just a few hundred yards away.
This is my first image using my new Nikon D5200, Im happy with the outcome as ive been chasing rainbows trying to capture a full one for over 6 months! lol and I finally captured a twin rainbow
This image was shot in Lough Erne, Enniskillen, County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, I almost missed this as I ran from the car shot this rainbow and within seconds it vanished!
This picture is a little soft but I decided to keep it anyway. A nice illustration of the female Oriole removing the fecal sac from the nest.

I've had a very long, physically tiring day already and it's only 9:30! After I finish posting this, I'm going to have some second breakfast and then go back to bed for a while.
This self portrait is inspired by Peter S. Beagle's book and movie The Last Unicorn. It's one of my very favorite works and he is one of my writing heroes. I had a lovely encounter with him recently, which you can read about here if you would like. And there may be a bit more Beagle-ness on it's way in the near future... :)
In the story, the Unicorn is turned into a human girl by magic in order to save her from a pressing threat. After having lived for centuries as an immortal creature, she finds the sudden weight of mortality nearly unbearable.
Edit: Peter S. Beagle himself saw this photo through Twitter and called it "exquisite." I nearly died from joy.

This is the fourth of a 5-image series I made a couple weeks ago. One morning, there was a light fog in our neighborhood, and I went out to make some autumn-colored photos.

======================Anger and rage=====================
They all woke up to the sound of Markus vomiting.
“Dude what’s wrong?” Hayden asked.
“I dunno.” Markus said in a gravelly voice. Although he did already have a husky, gruff voice, this was different, almost like it was a 90 year old man.
“I think you have to quit with the smoking, it’s not just once and a while anymore.” Hayden said
“What’s it to you!” Markus mumbled.
Last night, they almost didn’t get away from, well whatever that was. They couldn’t drive away after because Markus was dead asleep, after drinking lots and hitting his head.
“Well, can you even drive?” Hayden asked.
“Of course I can drive, why don’t you just shut up and leave me alone!”
“Ok, ok.”
“What’s his problem?” Hayden asked Cole
“Yeah well, I heard that! So why don’t you just get outta the truck right now!”
“You don’t remember do you, how we saved you last night” Hayden said.
“I hit my head so what, I would have been fine.”
“Mmm, well I think you drank too much”
You could clearly see Markus’s face filling with rage, as he bit his lip. Hayden looked straight into his dark almost black eyes, but that’s not what he noticed, he saw the anger, pain, and the rage. Hayden didn’t say one more thing, he just nodded slightly and left the truck.
Markus and Cole sped off, with dirt flying behind the tires.
That night Cole stayed at Markus’s, they were best buds so he did that a lot. “Knock, knock.”
“My God, who could that be, at 1:00 a.m.?” Markus peered through the curtains and saw that it was Todd and Aran. “Crap!, um, Cole Todd and Aran are here, they look like they wanna fight.”
“I’m sure they just want to talk.”
“ Nah dude, they wanna fight”
Cole and Markus strutted out the door, to say “what’s two ladies doing out this late?” Markus let out a chuckle.
“You know I’d love to smash my fists into your face right now!” Markus charged straight at Todd, but he threw up his forearms ready to fight, and punched Markus in the gut.
Aran pushed Cole’s elbow down and away, caught his head, and rolled him onto the ground. Markus quickly drug Cole to his feet, then slapped his right palm down on Aran’s face, blood splattered from his nose. Todd swings a punch, but Markus throws him over his shoulder, and smashed his face into the cement. Aran helped him up and they ran off.
“Whelp that’ll show ‘em! You all right man?” said Cole.
“I’m good except my face will be black ’n blue for weeks. See… if you’re always able to win a fight you got nothing to be afraid of right?”
“Yeah, I guess” Cole said with suspicion.
This is beside the Greater bird's-foot-trefoil that I uploaded yesterday. I'm not sure if it's the flower bud or seed head to the Trefoil, but think it's a flower bud.
Much better viewed large.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
This factory is completely demolished now, only ruins left and two chimneys.
It used to be largest paper and cellulose mill in Latvia. After Soviet Union collapsed, factory gained large debt and it was shut down in mid 90s.
This huge complex became as one of the largest abandoned industrial area ir Jūrmala city. However, urban explorers enjoyed to visit this place over and over again .
This photo is in my 'Street Photography' portfolio.
