Castlerigg Stone Circle (alternatively Keswick Carles, or Carles) is situated on a prominent hill to the east of Keswick, in the Lake District National Park, North West England. It is one of around 1,300 stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from approximately 3,200 BC to 2500 BC, during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages.

 

Various archaeologists have commented positively on the beauty and romance of Castlerigg and its surrounding landscape. In his study of the stone circles of Cumbria, archaeologist John Waterhouse commented that the site was "one of the most visually impressive prehistoric monuments in Britain.

 

We had a lovely sunny day for our visit to Castlerigg Stone Circle.

 

Every year, thousands of tourists travel to the site, making it the most visited stone circle in Cumbria.[7][8] This plateau forms the raised centre of a natural amphitheatre created by the surrounding fells and from within the circle it is possible to see some of the highest peaks in Cumbria: Helvellyn, Skiddaw, Grasmoor and Blencathra.

This is an image of the lunar eclipse .. put together with a photo of a flock of Western jackdaw .. I think it is safe to say that the end result is visually dark ..

Talking about the Pentacon 3.5/30 vintage lens. It may be half a century old, but optically it is a true 'generalist'. You can use it for any situation as long as the light is good. I prefer this lens to be wide open, as here. But that is a personal choice.

The then-standard consist of three SD40-2's on T004 are preparing to drop down-hill out of Eagle, Wisconsin, featuring Grow Wisconsin WAMX 4187 doing the honors. That awesome decal aged roughly during the 13 years of WSOR employment it served, but it was looking just fine from a distance on this train. You can't expect a whole lot from a photo printed vinyl decal living on the side of a locomotive, it held up better than you'd image one would in this climate. The SD60M's are okay, but don't remotely hold a candle to how visually appealing these consists looked.

The day is done and your day comes to a close. What better way to look back on today than to have the visual beauty of it to look back on. Keep using your cameras or phones to capture the people, places and things that you enjoy the most. Thanks so much for looking at my work today and any comment you care to make. At days end “Look West” and enjoy what you see at Sunset. Gratitude and Kindness are in every frame I shoot but you may not visually see them. Trust that they are there.

Sculpture (limestone) by Barbara Hepworth, 1948, seen in St. Albans Museum and Gallery. I find it remarkable that Hepworth used the visual language of the Madonna and Child to represent the "new morning" in the biological history of our planet. The Eocene covers roughly the first thirty million years after the extinction of the dinosaurs - and the rise of new plant life, of the mammals and, ultimately, us. The image may tell us that this process has a sacred dimension or, at least, that religious language is a way to visually describe it. Edited in Fuji's raw converter and refined in Luminar.

The secrets of the cottage garden..It is an intimate, enclosed space and, although visually connected to the rest of Sissinghurst, with views of the Elizabethan tower and the Tudor front range, it feels secluded. Vita and Harold both had bedrooms in the cottage that sits sentinel overlooking the garden; Harold had an office in it, too...It includes tender exotics such as hedychiums, salvias and cannas. Vita restricted the colour range to variations on sunset hues of orange, red and yellow.

In what is visually a mix up of heritage, former Canadian Pacific SD40-2F 9017 splits the old CP ABS signals at Tarratine, on the old CP Moosehead Sub... while adorned in Bangor & Aroostook colors. Apparently with their other engines down for various maladies, they were short of power enough to put the freshly repainted 9017 on the point of Job 1 today, instead of waiting for the PR shoot to send it west. The 9017 is leading (and fortunately hiding) LTEX GP35u 2535, and twenty-eight cars, as they head west for Canada.

The visually spectacular red-crested cardinal is hard to miss. Despite the resemblance and common name, the red-crested cardinal is a tanager and not taxonomically classified as a cardinal. Also called the Brazilian cardinal, this South American species was introduced to Hawaii in the 1930s and has become naturalized and abundant. This beauty is commonly observed in urban areas of Oahu, Kauai, and Maui.

Nothing is a bit visually spectacular about this photo but I want to share to my friends a little of history that I learned during my recent holiday in Korea.

 

The picture was taken at the Demilitarized Zone of the two Koreas. There is a conference building at the right side (not seen in pic) where meetings and negotiations are held between the two Koreas. Beyond the yellow line where the North Korea's terrain and territory can be seen, taking photographs are strictly prohibited as maybe part of the agreement. However, at the South's side, picture taking was never a problem. Quite bizarre to me as there was practically nothing to see at the North's side from that point, except for a wide almost frozen river, some dirt roads. vast farm lands and typical countryside terrains.

Challenge - In the Middle. Some staff where I work were talking about filling in the middle of cookies and it sparked this idea. Not only does Nabisco make double stuff Oreos - they make MEGA STUFF Oreos. I know, that's a lot of stuff, but visually it really helped the photo. :D Merry Christmas!

This type of image has always seemed visually very attractive to me, I know that this is not my best shot but I decided to try this in a new place and this is the result. Looking at the photograph on my computer, I realize that, it seems that I was in the very center of the road taking the photograph, that is the sense that it transmits to me when I see it ... but obviously I was on the bridge, capturing and observing the speed , the lights and that loud noise of cars, trucks, motorcycles ... that great daring of the day to day. I was there between 30 and 45 minutes ... you realize the madness of life that people in general lead, we run to all places, many of the times angry or upset with this or that ... and why ? In my opinion, not at all ... because if you stop to think calmly, everything is much simpler ... but it seems that this great inertia that we carry cannot be stopped!

 

I hope they are all well and I also hope they do not run as much as everyone I saw go by on this highway!

 

And remember:

"Speed ​​is not an advantage in a vicious circle"

I could visually see the pinkish nitrogen fringe moving west to east. From Spaceweather.com "Pink is hard to make because it requires particles from the sun to penetrate unusually deep into Earth's atmosphere. Most auroras are green, a color that comes from electrons hitting oxygen atoms 100 km to 300 km above Earth's surface. Pink requires those electrons to burrow even deeper, below 100 km, where they can find molecular nitrogen. N2 produces the pink. This "nitrogen fringe" appears only during strong storms with extra-penetrating particles from space."

Having just completed its station stop at Chillicothe, Santa Fe train #1, the west-bound "San Francisco Chief", is on the move again behind FP45 #5943 and F45 #5929. While this slide is undated, the FP45s and F45s were all renumbered into the 5900 series in late 1969 and early 1970. On Amtrak day in 1971, the SF Chief was discontinued, so this was taken 1970-early 1971.

 

The FP45s were a huge leap forward for the ATSF, as far as their passenger power was concerned. By the mid 1960s, the railroad's fleet of F units was worn out. Their sizable fleet of Alco PAs were also experiencing over-the-road failures at an alarming rate. With the future of the American passenger train in serious doubt, neither the railroad or EMD wanted to invest in a pure-passenger oriented locomotive design. The solution was simple: take an existing freight design, add boilers to provide steam to the train, and gear it for high speed running. EMD already offered something like this, the SDP45, which was a stretched SD45 with a steam generator. ATSF still very much cared about its public image however, and didn't want a hood unit leading their finest trains.

 

EMD went back to the drawing board and came up with the FP45. Internally an SDP45, the locomotive received a cowl car body that wrapped the whole thing up in a much more pleasing package. While certainly more utilitarian than the elegant lines of the E and F units of the past, the FP45 was sleek and visually pleasing. Santa Fe purchased 9 of them, and their impact was felt immediately. With over two times the horsepower of their old F7s, pairs of FP45s were able to replace 5 to 6 older, worn out F units on crack trains like the Super Chief, El Capitan, and SF Chief, and maintain existing schedules. ATSF was so pleased with them that when they went to order the freight version, the non-boiler equipped F45, and 20 of them received pass-through steam lines and passenger gearing so that they could be used with the FP45s.

 

And that's exactly what we're seeing here, an FP45 and an F45 powering a train that until a few years prior would've required an A-B-B-B-A set of F7s. Since there were only 9 FP45s, they were often used with older F7Bs that could provide additional steam. Or, in the case of this train, a baggage car converted into a steam generator car would tag along for the ride, coupled behind the #5929. A class act right to the end, the silver overspray on #5943s pilot and nose indicate fresh touch ups whenever possible to ensure their locomotives looked good. A big, mean Leslie S5TF horn has replaced the as-built S3L model.

 

I've always loved FP45s, and was very excited to acquire this slide. There was no information or photographer noted. Thanks to the members of the ATSF group on Facebook for helping to deduce where this was taken.

Visually quite a nice diffuse coma through the telescope. Approx mag 6.98 with my DSLR. Visually I made it 7.0. Close approach is 5th June, perihelion is 12th June. 17th June it will be in the FOV of NGC5560, NGC 5566, NGC 5569 (Arp 286) interacting galaxies.

Happy Truck Thursday!

Spider Rock might be one of the most visually arresting landmarks in the entire National Park Service- a massive stone tower, shining in the sun and surrounded by the walls of an undulating and bending canyon. What a delight.

 

Much like Monument Valley, Canyon de Chelly isn’t just part of the iconic landscape of the American Southwest, it is still a living and breathing and active community within the Navajo Nation- it is the only National Monument that is not on Federal Land, but instead, on Navajo Nation land. Spider Rock, a towering monolith of sandstone in the canyon is believed to be the home of Spider Grandmother, a spiritual figure who gives advice, medicinal cures, and help. Mindfulness of the privilege of being here is the way to go.

 

Across Utah and Arizona, you are in the Navajo Nation. In Navajo, sacred land is referred to as Diné Bikéyah. This land belongs to the people. Hopitutskwa, Pueblos, and Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ (Ute) land is also found across these two states and at archeological sites. It is an honor to see them.

Mellow Blue had a severe eye infection when he was a baby and has vision damage as a result, He can see but not very well.

A medium-large shorebird, the lesser yellowlegs measures 27 cm. The legs are yellow. Compared to the greater yellowlegs, the bill is shorter (visually about the same length as the head), slim, straight, and uniformly dark. The breast is streaked and the flanks are finely marked with short bars. A vagrant in Iceland and a new lifer for me species no. 156.

It thrills me to conceptualize visually things that exist only in my perception. Inevitably this leads down some dark and lonely metaphorical roads. Literally, desolation is a key ingredient. I spend much of my creative time with the camera exploring very lonely places. It heightens situational awareness and makes me keenly aware of the nuance of the environment. There's an element of risk as times. I don't actively pursue it, but thrill to the sense of adventure that ensues when the adrenaline kicks in. Makes me feel very alive. Anyway I'm off on another tangent here. My point is conceptualization of imagination. And a springboard for that is the feeling of an unseen presence I often feel around crop fields. There's some sort of energy there to be sure. Not something that can be gauged on a scientific basis, but we're talking about my mind here, and anything goes. Since childhood I've fantasized about apparitions that exist on one plane that momentarily become visible in our realm. Wraithlike female forms is one of my favorite incarnations. I prefer my terror in beautiful forms that somehow coexist with nature. More subtle than a chainsaw wielding monster, but every bit as terrifying.

The visually spectacular red-crested cardinal is hard to miss. Looking like a flame shooting from its head, the red crest is magnificent. This South American species, also called the Brazilian cardinal, was introduced to Hawaii in the 1930s. Despite the resemblance and common name, the red-crested cardinal (Paroaria coronate) is not taxonomically classified as a cardinal.

These are the tops and bottoms of colour felt pens/ colour markers!

Sometimes I just have some fun in the studio and play with some props...

A bit more info here:

Lee Newman patented a felt-tipped marking pen in 1910.

A marker pen, fineliner, marking pen, felt-tip marker, felt-tip pen, flow marker, texta (in Australia), sketch pen (in India) or koki (in South Africa), feutre (in FRANCE),is a pen which has its own ink-source and a tip made of porous, pressed fibers such as felt.

Taken whilst out on a boat trip to McNabs Island back in 2012.

Although the scene was nice enough I thought I would mess with it a little and see if I could make it visually more appealing...This is what happened! I like it! Hopefully you do too.

 

McNabs Island is the largest island in Halifax Harbour located in Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia, Canada. It played a major role in defending Halifax Harbour and is now a provincial park. The island was first settled in 1780s by Peter McNab, and McNab family members lived on the island until 1934.

The Brown Booby (Sula leucogaster) is a visually arresting seabird I encountered during an early morning expedition by fishing boat to Isla Terrón de Azúcar, a remote rock island in the open Caribbean waters off the coast of Capurganá and Acandí, in Chocó, Colombia. Battling the ocean’s rhythm, I stabilized myself at the base of the cliffs as the boat rocked through intense sunlight reflecting off the water’s surface. This bird perched calmly on the rugged rock, allowing a moment of stillness amidst the motion for a shot.

 

To capture this image, I used my Canon R5 paired with an 800mm f/11 lens and a 1.4x extender, giving me an effective focal length of 1120mm. I selected 1/750 second to compensate for the instability of the boat, while shooting at f/16 and ISO 800 to maintain detail and depth under the bright tropical sun. The result is a high-resolution portrait that captures the contrast of the bird’s rich brown plumage against the textured cliff and the soft gradient of ocean and sky beyond. Technical choices aside, this was a rewarding challenge—one that reminds me of the delicate balance between preparation, persistence, and nature’s fleeting stillness.

In my constant effort to publish interesting and visually appealing photos, I usually refrain from doing self portraits - for good reason. Here, however, comes an exception. Behold yours truly in all his semitransparency.

This is about as much as I can dare to show of myself. If in doubt, just look through me.

 

Technically, the transparency was not done in post processing. With an exposure of 30 seconds I could comfortably walk right into the image and stand where I wanted to while the camera was exposing. It took me about 7-10 seconds to walk to this spot. This means that I was there to be captured by the camera for about 10 seconds less than the rest of the image - hence the semitransparency.

 

This image should be viewed as large as possible, so please press 'L' to view it in the lightbox.

 

Despite my presence - enjoy!

In this photo, I thoughtfully capture a cluster of pink geraniums, or Pelargonium peltatum, in a natural setting. The composition is fairly tight, focusing on the blooms and a few buds below. The flowers are in sharp focus, while the background is softly blurred, creating a shallow depth of field and adding bokeh. The water droplets on the petals suggest recent rain, adding texture and highlights. The light reflects off these droplets, creating small points of interest. The flowers are slightly off-centre, creating a more dynamic and visually appealing image than a perfectly centred subject. The inclusion of the buds adds a sense of growth, life and joy.

The Street Banyan Tree by The Little Branch is a new release that is now available at Man Cave.

 

These beautiful trees look gallant as they are displayed side by side along a stretch of road or in the center median. The delicate branches are full of brilliant leaves in a compact shape that is visually pleasing. The trees also look great in forests and front yards. This versatile tree will quickly become one of your go-to favorites.

Kat created this new pool area in the upper level and it's visually inspired from an image of what looks like a desert oasis from some exotic age. It's gorgeous and my favorite vision is this, the hot sun, and laying in the water, under the shade from the lattice overhead.

 

Playing with some depth of field here where I am blurred a bit while the water feature is the focus. Love this whole vibe, very safe and cool in the desert heat.

 

The music for this is Sunshower - by Chris Cornell, with these as the favorite words:

 

"But it's all right when you're all in pain

And you feel the rain come down

It's alright when you find your way

Then you see it disappear

It's alright, though your garden's grey

I know all your graces someday will flower

In the sweet sunshower

In the sweet sunshower"

From this perspective, the spoon-bill's left eye appeared to be injured. Some photographers (w/ large zoom lenses) nearby also confirmed the fact as well. Meanwhile, the great white egret seemed to keep an eye on his/her unfortunate friend too.

DDC-Visual Interest

 

This is a twist on the theme, but it's pretty obvious where Shizandra's visual interest lies.

The Australian water dragon (Intellagama lesueurii),[2] which includes the eastern water dragon (Intellagama lesueurii lesueurii ) and the Gippsland water dragon (Intellagama lesueurii howittii ) subspecies, is an arboreal agamid species native to eastern Australia from Victoria northwards to Queensland. There may be a small introduced population on the south-east coast of South Australia. The Gippsland Water Dragon is generally the more southern of the two species and the more cold adapted and heat sensitive. Visually distinguishing the Gippsland Water Dragon from the Eastern Water Dragon is relatively easy, as long as their skin is reasonably clean and not stained from the water, as identification of the two subspecies depends largely on observable differences in colours and patterns.

I was presented with my British Empire Medal today by the Lord Lieutenant of Leicestershire. It was awarded in Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's final Birthday Honours for my voluntary work helping other blind and visually impaired people to live their lives more fully and independently by helping them select the right technology and then training them to use it. It has been very rewarding, especially over lockdown and the BEM was a huge, delightful surprise.

Parliament Buildings

 

Parliament Buildings National Historic Site of Canada is prominently located on a hill above the Ottawa River on Wellington Street in downtown Ottawa, Ontario. Four Gothic Revival style buildings grouped on landscaped grounds, namely the West Block, the Centre Block, the East Block, and the Library. Built 1859-1865 to serve the united provinces of Upper and Lower Canada, the Parliament Buildings were occupied by the House of Commons, Senate and departmental offices of the new Dominion of Canada after Confederation in 1867. The Parliament Buildings have been constantly occupied, and continue to be the real and symbolic centre of Canadian government. Official recognition refers to the four buildings as defined by their footprints.

 

Parliament Buildings was designated a national historic site of Canada in 1976. This site is designated because: first occupied in 1865 by the departmental offices of the Province of Canada, the Gothic Revival style parliament buildings housed the new Government of Canada eighteen months later.

 

The Parliament Buildings were initially conceived to serve the needs of the government of the united provinces of Upper and Lower Canada; however, after Confederation in 1867, they were occupied by the House of Commons, Senate, and departmental offices of the new Dominion of Canada. Originally known as Barracks Hill, the site was chosen for its commanding location, its fine uninterrupted views of the region, and for its three decades of occupation by a military garrison and the Royal Engineers, rendering it a central focus of town social life.

 

The building complex was dramatically sited on the hill and construction began in 1859. The original buildings were examples of Ruskinian picturesque High Victorian Gothic architecture, designed by two architectural partnerships. Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones designed the original Centre Block and Library, and Thomas Stent and Augustus Laver were responsible for the East and West Blocks. The buildings were intended to house all government activities with the East and West Blocks reserved for the entire civil service. The Centre Block was sufficiently complete in 1865 to be occupied by government departments, and it was officially opened on 6 June 1866. The Library was begun in 1859, redesigned in 1870, and finished in 1877. Fire destroyed the Centre Block, with the exception of the Library, in 1916. When it was rebuilt a few years later, the building was enlarged and the Peace Tower was completed in 1928. The Gothic style was retained by the architects Pearson & Marchand, although updated to a Beaux-Arts axial plan with Gothic details

 

The Parliament Buildings play an important symbolic role as the physical embodiment of the Canadian government. This symbolism is most visually manifest in the exterior image of the Centre Block and its Peace Tower, yet the whole grouping is clearly identified with the nation’s capital, particularly because it is not an architectural image developed elsewhere in the country.

 

Key elements that contribute to the heritage character of the site include: its prominent location on a hill facing Wellington Street above the Ottawa River; its Gothic Revival style; the relationship between the buildings; viewscapes in all directions surrounding the site.

 

Elements related to Centre Block: its four-storey irregular massing and copper mansard roof, punctuated by dormers and chimney stacks; Beaux-Arts Gothic Revival design elements, its monumentality, symmetrical plan, Gothic windows and doorways, stained and etched glasswork, towers, iron finials and cresting; its steel-frame construction infilled with brick and terracotta tile, and clad in Nepean and Ohio sandstone; the 92-metre Peace Tower, its copper mansard roof, four-sided clock, 53-bell carillon and decoration; its Tyndall limestone Gothic Revival interior with rib and fan vaulting and decorative motifs; its functional layout on an axial plan; the House of Commons and Senate Chamber; its public and ceremonial spaces, including the Memorial Chamber and the Hall of Honour.

Visually, using a mirror and a window pane. When an image is fragmented or its various parts are scattered, these various parts or fragments may well be images in their own right. Leica M8, Elmar (coll.) 90/4.

The image shows a visually striking scene featuring a goddess-like figure seated in a confident pose before a massive, ornate clock adorned with intricate golden designs. The figure is dressed in a dramatic outfit that blends futuristic and ancient aesthetics, including metallic gold armor and an elaborate headdress with fan-like extensions. Her long, wavy hair cascades over her shoulders, and her arms are raised gracefully.

 

The clock serves as the central backdrop, symbolizing the passage of time, with Roman numerals prominently displayed around its circular face. The structure surrounding the clock is grand, with metallic and gold accents and decorative patterns that evoke a sense of opulence and power. The sky behind the clock is moody, with clouds partially illuminated by sunlight, adding depth and drama to the composition.

 

The overall vibe is majestic and otherworldly, portraying themes of time, strength, and divinity.

I dedicate this photo to 3 friends who wrote testimonials about me. I am deeply touched.

 

1. Danilo (Onillad) ever present commenting on my photos. (true or false?)

2. Jay (jahrock91) sometimes not commenting on my photos (hehe)

 

And last but not the least:

 

3. Dosia (SIGHT EFFECTS), she says I am her first contact here on Flickr (I am deeply honored). Thank you. Visit her stream, she has an eye for good photography. Keep on shooting, my friend.

This one I saw with my eyes as I was out observing in the early morning for Leonids and saw this Taurid, and so did the camera. Nikon Z7II and Nikon 20 mm S F1.8 with interval timer.

 

Very bright, at the horizon over the mountains. Dark Moonless sky.

 

This is my brightest meteor so far for 2025, and one that I happened to see and experience with my eyes in the early morning as well capturing it with a camera.

 

I have been told wishes do not count if the meteor is only seen by the camera, but to see the fireball, I think I get a wish !
