I discovered these thistles in a field of wheat while jogging. I returned two days later with my camera just to discover that the farmer was about to harvest this field. I asked if I could take some pictures first which he was totally okay with.
One day later this would not have been possible.
Der Münchener U-Bahnhof Harthof: Die säulenlose Bahnsteighalle strahlt eine gewisse Nüchternheit aus, ist sie doch in ihrer Gestaltung vergleichsweise "unaufregend". Bei näherer Betrachtung fallen jedoch die durchdacht integrierte Beleuchtung und der behutsame Umgang mit Formen, Farben und Materialien auf. Die gefaltete Dachkonstruktion dient gleichermaßen als Lichtreflektor wie auch als gliederndes Element des Bahnsteigs, hat man doch das Gefühl, in einem Bauwerk mit herkömmlichen Dach zu sein. Die mit hellrosa und granatroten Glasfliesen verzierten Wände nehmen Bezug auf das kräftige rot des Linienbandes. Geplant wurde der Bahnhof vom Architektur-büro Obermeyer in Zusammenarbeit mit dem städtischen U-Bahn-Referat. Eröffnung:

Munich’s Harthof Underground Station: The columnless platform hall exudes a certain sobriety, since its design is comparatively “inexciting. ” On closer inspection, however, the well-thought-out integrated lighting and the careful handling of shapes, colours and materials stand out. The folded roof construction serves both as a light reflector and as a structural element of the platform, since you have the feeling of being in a building with a conventional roof. The walls decorated with light pink and garnet red glass tiles refer to the strong red of the line ribbon. The station was planned by the Obermeyer architectural office in collaboration with the city’s subway department. Opening: 20 November 1993. (Source: www. u-bahn-muenchen. de)

We were out Kayaking with another couple in our tandem boats when others needed to pass. We had purposefully come to a tight inlet where seals could be seen sunbathing however, it was feeding time and none were present. Although minutes prior to this shot, one came to within 20 feet or our Kayak to have a peek at us, then bolted with a splash. All the basic colors were present, from red to green, from yellow to blue, and more. The entire spectrum delighted our eyes with a treasure trove of visual sensations.
"If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it." Joseph Beuys, 1969. Ignore the Exif data, this shot was done with the Helios 44M-7 wide-open.

I must admit this hasn’t been the first time to have experienced this unique bonding, when the bird accepted my presence and wouldn’t fly away. Call it “interspecies communication" if you wish, or telepathy - I don’t know (smile).
After taking a few good shots with my 400mm f5.6, I have decided to take the chance and switch lenses, for a shallower DOF. The cute owl didn't move a bit. I must admit having experienced a feeling of acceptance and trust. I gave the owl its space by not getting too close.
Shot taken at f2.8 with Canon 5dIII coupled with canon 70-200 f/2.8 II.
The aesthetics of black rocks and black sand in contrast with the sea is so gorgeous! It takes me back to the north coast of my island. The sea is too wild and seaspray so dense always, that wouldn't be really possible to live that close (not allowed by law) and the windows wouldn't look that nice.
But in SL we can dream! so anytime I can I rezz my houses by or in the sea. Scarlet Creative's Barcelona Beach cabin, is minimal, beautiful and stylish, so much glass, I thought it could pair very nicely with Fancy Decor's Larsen set for Fameshed this month. Keeping it simple, clean, modern, using monochromes to connect with the blacks and greys of the rocks and letting the sea and the dracaenas to finish the job ❤

This photo was part of a spontaneous session I shot a couple of years ago. I vividly recall driving past this place and thinking I had entered some sort of portal that allowed time travel. It wasn't simply the wonderful Victorian house, but everything that surrounded it. It felt for all the world like I had moved back in time. But more than that, it felt like a movie set with everything carefully crafted to give the impression of a small town street in a much simpler time. All the touches were there, the stone column flanking a wrought iron fence; bare tree, crooked street sign, and that wonderful front porch. This is not one of those century villages full of preserved historic architecture. The house is situated on a city street, surrounded by ample evidence of the modern era. Yet somehow this corner of Highland Avenue has escaped the visual clutter and is locked into a decades-old visual appearance. As it happened, my completely random discovery of this place coincided with absolutely perfect sky and cloud conditions. The low sun angle provide deep shadows and greatly enhanced the mood. And the fallen leaves added to the atmosphere. It just wouldn't have been the same had the leaves been raked away to reveal a bare tree lawn and pavement. All part of that timeless quality and autumnal ambiance. I post a photo of this place every autumn; it's sort of like putting up a seasonal decoration. I just love the way the scene makes me feel.
This is also a Viceroy Butterfly
The main visual difference between the viceroy and monarch butterfly is the black line drawn across the viceroy's hind wings, which monarch butterflies do not have.
Another characteristic of the Viceroy are larger but fewer spots oh the upperbody

Valle de Izas, Huesca, Pirineo Aragonés.
La última luz del atardecer incide sutilmente sobre las puntas del impresionante macizo rocoso, el denominado "Balcón de Iserías" con 2275 metros de altitud. Bajo él se muestra el "Barranco de Las Negras", llamado así por las rocas oscuras de origen volcánico que recorren todo el lecho fluvial.
Este río, es un afluente del "río de Canal Roya" que a su vez es afluente del "río Aragón" y este es uno de los principales afluentes del "río Ebro", el más caudaloso de España. Y, con 930 kilómetros de longitud, el segundo más largo que desemboca al mar Mediterráneo tras el Nilo. El recorrido que hace aquí el agua es realmente impresionante.
La elevación de la temperatura está incrementado la velocidad del deshielo, y aún más tras las intensas lluvias de los últimos días. El chapoteo del discurrir del agua entre las oscuras rocas es muy sonoro. A pesar de todo, es un paisaje ordenado, armonioso y que ante mí muestra el equilibro natural que hay entre los distintos elementos. Es como una gran orquesta con distintos instrumentos, todos tan dispares pero unidos en una efímera melodía visual, la melodía del paisaje.

Visual tension
March Bonus Challenge - Abstract with a twist
Shot with a "Mystery fast lens" on a Canon EOS R5.
The visual impression of Illinois’ agricultural landscapes is one of expansive openness, where the sky meets the earth in an unbroken line, punctuated only by the occasional farmhouse, silo, or grove of trees along waterways.
It is a landscape dominated by monoculture crops, primarily corn and soybeans, which stretch across the horizon in neat, orderly rows. The area is predominantly flat with gently rolling hills, and the soil is exceptionally rich, thanks to thousands of years of organic matter accumulation from deep-rooted prairie plants. This has made Illinois one of the most productive agricultural states in the United States.
An ominous view over Clear Lake yesterday morning as the weather forecast was predicting freezing rain, sleet mixed with snow for our area starting late last night!
Well guess what? The weather man must know what he is doing because that is just what we are experiencing here this morning!
Sigh . . . not good!

Despite wind gust of over fifty miles an hour, tranquility and calm prevailed as I climbed Kane Mountain's 98 year old fire tower. The views are of a small corner of the southern Adirondack mountains, but amazing from any direction. Located near Caroga Lake, New York in the 518. Pentax.
