The Flintstones is an animated American television sitcom which ran from 1960 to 1966 on ABC.
The Flintstones is about a working class Stone Age man's life with his family and his next door neighbor and best friend. The first prime time cartoon geared for adults, the show originally aired from 1960 to 1966, on the ABC network. It was also ABC's first series to be televised in color. While the show was originally syndicated by Screen Gems (until 1981, then DFS Program Exchange from, and then Turner Program Services), Warner Bros. Television later acquired the rights (through parent Time Warner's purchase).
The show is set in the town of Bedrock in the Stone Age era. The show is an allegory to American society of the mid-to-late 20th century; in the Flintstones' fantasy version of the prehistoric past, dinosaurs, saber-toothed tigers, woolly mammoths, and other long extinct animals co-exist with barefoot cavemen, who use technology equivalent to that of the 20th century, largely through the use of various animals. The characters drive cars made out of stone or wood and animal skins and powered by foot.

Los Picapiedra (en inglés The Flintstones), es una serie animada de la productora Hanna-Barbera Productions, y ha sido una de las series más exitosas de la historia. Apareció por primera vez al aire a través de la cadena estadounidense ABC el 30 de septiembre de 1960 hasta el primero de abril de 1966 con un total de 166 episodios además de algunos especiales y pelÃculas que se han hecho.
La acción tiene lugar en un pueblo llamado Piedradura ("Bedrock") en la Edad de Piedra, pero con una sociedad idéntica a la de los Estados Unidos a mediados del siglo pasado.
Es un mundo fantástico en el que los dinosaurios, los tigres dientes de sable, los mamuts y otros animales hoy extintos coexistÃan con los humanos, quienes usaban tecnologÃa similar a la del siglo XX, pero en la que los animales sustituian a los aparatos eléctricos. Los personajes conducÃan automóviles formados por troncos de madera (troncomóviles), ruedas de piedra, en los que el motor era sustituido por el empuje de los pies de sus ocupantes. Las vestimentas eran de piel animal.

This is a tree that blooms pink and white cherry-like flowers. It is very common and seen in every neighbourhood in this area. It is named Zumi Crabapple. It looked like a subspecies of sakura at the first glimpse but it isn't. It originated on Honshu Island. This tree has spread its branches far and wide to all the directions and is bigger than all the sakura trees I have ever seen.
A old British term for a long-distance phone call, it seemed an appropriate play on words for this image of a young elephant crossing the road with his trunk extended, in the Madikwe Safari Park in South Africa.

CN 8952, one of the 6 CN heritage units that honors former fallen flags, moves eastbound on Canadian National's M338 job through Burlington, Illinois on a foggy night. This was the third straight day of freezing fog, quite dense as you can see here, to the point where I had to increase contrast so that you could see the former depot on the right! It also produced the best hoar frost/rime ice event I've ever seen in my life.
And a shout out to Robert J. Della-Pietra who got a nice shot as well here!

This is a close-up photo of a weathered coastal tree trunk with a shape in the bark that suggests a pareidolia portrait of a predator.
This is the Iron Trunk Aqueduct, built in the early 1800s to carry what was then the Grand Junction Canal over the River Great Ouse outside Cosgrove.

I think this would've been better with a smaller aperture (maybe 8?) to give it more DoF and therefore more of the texture of the trunk in focus - please may I have your thoughts on that? There's also a shadow top left, which is distracting... Other than that, I like it!
