✏ Carmine Superiore is a tiny village of medieval origin, reachable only on foot from the underlying hamlet of Carmine Inferiore. Consisting of a small number of stone houses, it stands on a rocky outcrop overlooking the western shore of Lake Maggiore.
Its evocative alleys, dominated by ancient stone and the silence of a late January afternoon, reminded me of the charm of the magical village of Hogsmeade.
I was pretty bored yesterday and started walking around my house looking at random things through my macro lens to see what looked interesting.

che la bicicletta non stia in piedi da sola e che abbia bisogno di qualcosa o di qualcuno che la sorregga: questo fa di essa una macchina commovente.

Mallards are the most numerous wildfowl in Britain and can be found almost anywhere there is water, so it is not surprising that most people are familiar with it.
The male, or drake, is very recognisable nearly all year round by its metallic green head, brown breast that is delineated from the head by a white neck ring, grey body and black tail. During the summer months, June to September, the drake moults and looks very similar to the female - this is called "eclipse" plumage - and offers better camouflage until their flight feathers have been fully replaced.
The female, or duck, is mainly brown, with blackish mottling and has a plain buff coloured head with a dark line through the eye.
Both sexes have a purple-blue speculum. Further, they both have orange-red legs and a yellow-olive coloured bill, but the duck's bill is much duller.

Al dagenlang worden grote delen van België geteisterd door dichte mist maar op 17 januari zagen de voorspellingen er voor de zuidelijke landshelft goed uit. Er werd besloten om naar Bascoup te rijden voor een foto van een wisseltransport op lijn 113. Deze Infrabel trein die getrokken werd door de 7846 & 7806 van Lineas vertrok stipt op tijd uit de werkplaats in Bascoup waar de Wissels voor het infrabel netwerk geassembleerd worden. Alleen zaten de weersvoorspellingen weeral mis en was er een dichte mist waardoor zelfs de eerste wagen achter de loc moeilijk zichtbaar was... De trein was echter in te halen en hierdoor werd een 2de poging gewaagd op lijn 125. Tijdens de autorit naar lijn 125 reden we de hele tijd over een zonovergoten E42! Maar helaas kwam de mist weer opzetten bij het binnenrijden van de Maasvallei... Nu we er toch waren werd de trein toch opgewacht in Namêche en kijk! Soms worden we eens beloond want net als de trein eraan kwam deed de zon mega hard haar best om toch even de trein in de spotlights te zetten! Missie geslaagd.

Black Canyon of The Gunnison National Park, Gunnison Point
Title is from ~Audiomachine's epic Through the Darkness
A happy memory, almost unplanned. My youngest son and I spent the day driving up from Durango to Montrose, and then after dinner headed to a national park we had never been to, on a dark trail, rocky and descending into a pitch-black chasm. While the Milky Way wasn't low enough to be in view, the stars did not disappoint, and neither did the location, Gunnison Point. Having my son's help saved the night too, as he always plays "photographer's assistant" and has a great appreciation for clear starry skies.
They are not kidding when they named this Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, it's dark even in the daytime. In fact, parts of the gorge only receive 33 minutes of sunlight a day, its walls are so sheer and steep. The Gunnison River is primarily responsible for carving the canyon and the geology of this park is amazing. The streaks in the walls seen here are from pegmatite lava which flowed into cracks and hardened. The gorge features the tallest sheer cliff in all of Colorado with a sudden drop of 2,250 feet (690 m).
This is a single image, processed in Capture One Pro. The 30 seconds necessary to get enough data for the RAW file to record most details of this dark landscape also led to some minor star trails.

Walking along a stream I was surprised to see this Great Blue Heron only a few feet on the other side of tall marsh reeds. The heron made a catch and then noticed me as I stood quietly trying to focus though the reeds, before slowly backing away.
Thank you for viewing
As she walked through the station no one dared to look at her. The mystique stayed with her as she boarded the train, never to return.
