This batch of images (#5690 through #5779) was all shot on 11 August 2013, the last day we had the rental car. So, we headed North to the Tulcea and the Danube Delta ... made a few stops along the way.
I managed to catch the reflection of the setting sun in these modern office building windows.
Heading north toward Cape Split, the traveler comes to a place called The Lookoff. You MUST pull off the road and view this panorama overlooking Minas Basin, because this has to be one of the finest views in Atlantic Canada-----if not the entire country. My wife had never seen this place before, and I myself had not been here since 1973! But it's a scene you don't forget. Hope I didn't overdo it, but I wound up shooting about ten views, including a video. You'll be seeing more . . . hope you enjoy these pix!
This tiny butterfly has a wingspan of 1-to-1-1/4 inches (about 2.5-3 cm). I had to walk through a creek to get to where I took this photo, but it was worth it.
Del Puerto Canyon, Stanislaus County, California. Many thanks to David for organizing the trip and John for doing most of the driving!

Went to this arcade type of place with some friends. Took some nice pictures. Going to church in a while. Yessss. <3 I feel so sick, but it's alright..I hope I feel better though. I want to go to the out of town game this friday! (football game) So, I must go to all the practices..(colorguard).
Have a happy Sunday everyone! :)
I don't think any aerodynamics working here, but still this car seems to be well balanced. It goes fast and straight!
This member of the aster family is a spring bloomer. Most asters show up in late summer and fall and stay with us until frost. But the fleabane just can't seem to wait to get the season started.
This was on the end of a day when the sun went down in the distance and some clouds moved in. I did a lot of post processing on the black & white contrast in that shot. But I like that overall mood.
This is the look I get whenever I'm eating something and Chi ball wants. This boy has such bad starving kitten syndrome.
A couple of years ago went through a phase of calming the waters with the ubiquitous big stopper...lol..I like the effect but much prefer the crash and roar.....:))
"this dawn awakes with floating ribbons on the sea, an ocean sunrise stretches toward the beach in rainbows of light; a breathtaking sight to see
as earth and heaven sigh in harmony, and the sands begin to glow with golden light
as waves wash away the darkness of the night."

I'm doing a sort of mini-theme week centered around Earth Day which is on thursday. Yesterday's photo was all about getting out and enjoying Mother Nature. Today it's about switching over to eco-friendly options, trade in those ineffiecient bulbs for new long lasting bulbs that save energy!
Today my school had a bike/walk to work/school day and it was awesome to see so many bikes! There were so many that the bikes racks had filled up by the time I got there and we had to store bikes in offices and storage rooms just to keep them out of the main areas.
Now it's off to enjoy a BBQ with my Tuesday after-school group!
TOTW: Get Your Groove On
This is what we went to see, I think we just caught the end of the season. I’ve posted a colour and mono version, we like them both...
HMBT!

The newlyweds were standing only a few feet from our table, but I found myself drawn to this glass more.
This image highlights the location of the galaxy JADES-GS-z6 in a portion of an area of the sky known as GOODS-South, which was observed as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey, or JADES.

This galaxy, along with others in this region, were part of a Webb study by an international team of astronomers, who observed the chemical signature of carbon-rich dust grains at redshift ~7. This is roughly equivalent to one billion years after the birth of the Universe. Similar observational signatures have been observed in the much more recent Universe, attributed to complex, carbon-based molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). It is not thought likely, however, that PAHs would have developed within the first billion years of cosmic time. Therefore, this observation suggests the exciting possibility that Webb may have observed a different species of carbon-based molecule: possibly minuscule graphite- or diamond-like grains produced by the earliest stars or supernovae. This observation suggests exciting avenues of investigation into both the production of cosmic dust and the earliest stellar populations in our Universe, and was made possible by Webb’s unprecedented sensitivity.
The team’s research indicates that this particular galaxy showed significant dust obscuration and has undergone substantial metal enrichment relative to galaxies with similar mass at the same redshift. The team also believes the galaxy's visible colour gradient may indicate a peculiar geometrical alignment of stars and dust.
In this image, blue, green, and red were assigned to Webb’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) data at 0.9, 1.15, and 1.5 microns; 2.0, 2.77, and 3.55 microns; and 3.56, 4.1, and 4.44 microns (F090W, F115W, and F150W; F200W, F277W, and F335M; and F356W, F410M, and F444W), respectively.
The galaxy is shown zoomed in on a region measuring roughly 1x1 arcseconds, which is a measure of angular distance on the sky. One arcsecond is equal to 1/3600 of one degree of arc (the full Moon has an angular diameter of about 0.5 degrees). The actual size of an object that covers one arcsecond on the sky depends on its distance from the telescope.

[Image description: The image shows a deep galaxy field, featuring thousands of galaxies of various shapes and sizes. A cutout indicates a particular galaxy, known as JADES-GS-z6, which was a research target for this result. It appears as a blurry smudge of blue, red and green.]
While out this morning, this Galah came over the road to sit at my feet. Didn't mind my talking to it! Found out later someone picked it up and was looking for the owner. A lovely experience for me.
I took this during a family gathering. We had taken over the top floor of a Bar on Montpellier Walk. I liked the sun streaming through the window and it added to the warmth in the room. And as the street is predominately faced with our famous Cotswold stone, the sun bouncing off my side of the street was causing a sort of "honey glow" . So why I hear you ask, have I converted it into negative format?
Well by accident if I'm honest. I often play around with pictures, and more often than not, end up leaving them more or less alone. But this one caught me.
For those of you who have never shot film, this will be lost on you! When I was about 14, I was lucky enough to have a rudimentary darkroom at home. And I taught myself to develop my own B & W film, and print my own photos. I will never forget the feeling of excitement, when the time came to take the developed film out, hold it up to the light and be able to look at the results. So seeing this photo in this format, instantly transported me back 40 odd years. And at my age, that feeling is pretty good!!
I’m happiest when me and I think this photo shows that. I feel incredibly comfortable wearing female fashion and I know what I like and find that when I try it on I’m usually right and because I feel that I look fabulous then my whole body radiates that feeling…… the pose, the confidence, the relaxed nature of how I’m seated and my smile 😊❤️️⚧️
this photo is refer to iranian traditional ceremony that named nowrooz , iranian celebrate their new year with these elements that have 5000 years history

This photo was taken from the inter-island ferry 'Kwuna', which lands at the concrete ramp on the right of the photo.
I know that this is sorta buzzkill from my previous moody works but it has been such a long time since I post normal shots by my standard - without the alteration with textures and whatnots. I hope this is still acceptable. I tried shooting with a repurchased 55-250mm IS lens. Pretty nifty yea? :)
I have a cousin's wedding to shoot on the 8th of August. I sense another photographer's fright impending :)

This handmade Old Skool Rod featured many Douglas Aircraft parts, with real rivets on the body panels, and check out those authentic side lights . And the interior looked like a cockpit from a DC-3.
The Douglas Aircraft company supplied 10's of thousands of planes to the WW2 war effort and was a critical component in the success of the war effort...
Made EXPLORE!!! 7-16-10 # 140 Many "Thank You's" to all my friends and contacts for your views and Favs

After some reflection, I like this earlier shot a little better than the previous one I shared. A SpaceX rocket races across the sky just before sunrise in this view from Santa Monica, California. A crescent moon beams above it. The rocket took off just at the right time to have its plume lit up by the rising sun and to provide an opportunity to say that it is never ever ever ok to do a Nazi salute, which is what the CEO of SpaceX did on live tv twice.
Incredible panoramic view from The Sky Terrace 428, The Peak, Hong Kong.
The peak tower is the most iconic landmark in Hong Kong located 396m above sea level. Dazzling array of restaurants and shops set against the beautiful backdrop of the city.
Madame Tussauds (Wax Museum) is located inside this building too!
Share to the world interesting image as always!

This is a life-size fold of my desk lamp origami model. I cheated a little by putting a metal profile inside the post since the paper I used had too little stiffness to support itself at this size (for smaller models or thicker paper, this is not necessary).
This bus is onloan to Stagecoach from London United untill the new electric buses arrive.

This cob house was built by a guy named Ian Marcuse (he headed up the Stanley Park cob project) in the backyard of the house he rents on Salsbury Drive in Vancouver. Unfortunately there's a good chance the house and the fantastic garden surrounding it will be torn down to make way for duplexes.
They're fighting to have the cob house and the property it's on preserved from housing development and are aiming to turn it into a park or something along those lines. Apparently the city may be interested in buying the property. They've been holding parties and open houses to raise awareness among people in the neighbourhood. So if you're in the 'hood check out the cob house and sign the petition to preserve this amazing structure and surrounding lot.
You can find it at 1117 Salsbury Drive, Vancouver, just a couple east of commercial drive.
