Near the fairy steps, the warning relates to the Fairy Steps which are a flight of naturally occurring limestone stairs squeezed between two sheer rock faces nearby they are named as such because legend has it that should you climb or descend the steps without touching the sides of the narrow gully the fairies will grant you a wish.
These steps have been an attraction to the area for over two hundred years, back in the late Victorian times coach loads of tourists would arrive in the hope of having their wishes granted by the fairies. Now it's an attraction for holiday lets.
Warning: Climb at Your Own Risk
There's been a lot of risk associated with the year 2020. Recently I found myself all alone far from everyone and everything. As I read the warning sign, climbing seemed like a minimal risk compared with all we've been through this year. And then I was high in the sky. I could feel the tower swaying in the wind. Slowly, back and forth. I could hear the creaking as the rivets rubbed against the cold, hard steel. But I couldn't hear any bad news, nasty name calling, accusations, or allegations. All the conspiracies were nowhere to be found. No virus was trying to chase me down. I was all alone yet I was overwhelmed with the realization I'm never alone. Climb at your own risk. You may just discover there is a road that leads to a far better place.

2020.08.26 - Hum..whaaaa..? At first I thought this was a joke as I was cycling through Parc Maisonneuve but it turns out in July there were sheep brought to the park for people to hang out with ..and I guess this is where they crossed the bike path. The path by the way is paved, this trail is just a self made walking path next to it... it kind of took me for a loop though LOL.

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
Bob Dylan's song was the first thing that came to my mind when I heard about this dead whale in Njarðvík a couple of days ago.
I can only hope that this is a coincidence, but this is the 3rd dead whale I've found this year. When you think about it whales are no more immortal beings than any other on this planet.
This is a northern bottlenose whale (Hyperoodon ampullatus).
I shot this image yesterday. It's an HDR of 3 handheld exposure. I aligned the shots before importing into Photomatix which I used for HDR creation and tone mapping. Most of the work in Photoshop revolved around adjusting the perspective and composition, as I couldn't position myself close enough to the subject to get the desired composition. On top of that I did tonal adjustments to get the muted tones effect, dodge and burn, noise reduction to the sky and sharpening to the foreground.
Catching a lift through The City. Getting used to life in the other seat. The glimmers and flashes when you're catching a lift in the front. I very rarely do these days, but figured I need to get used to the other seat and how different speed feels when you're not actually in the driving seat - with someone else in control of a train. After nearly 5 years of driving trains underground, I finally got a job as an instructor. Not quite sure how I feel about it yet.

How observant are you? Did you spot the "Do not Cross" sign with 4 alternate flashing lights cunningly concealed on two 10 foot high poles? If you did congratulations.
Unlike the dimbo with a brain the size of a cod liver oil capsule you should have a driving licence.
Every time this river floods at least one bonehead floats gently down river towards Coleshill, they never do learn, this one made it but only just, oh yes, forgot to say the sign in the direction they came from is even easier to see...

Signs Of The Times - Dog Warning Sign Ideas - IMRAN™
There was a discussion on a Facebook group for owners of German Shepherd Dogs where a person wanted a sign to warn a repeat trespasser not to do so. I propose this as a possible option. “Hungry Attack Dogs On Premises. Fed Once Daily. Last Meal Was 23 Hours Ago. Avoid Trespassing To Avoid Unexpected Loss Of Weight Or Body Parts.” 🐕😄 What do you think? I know, I know. Some scumbag lawyer of some slime ball criminal would use that to claim damages based on the sign even if meant in humor. But a settlement can’t really buy them a new pair of testicules if the dogs are trained like the ones in John Wick 3. 😂

Not just any old fork-lift, but a heavy-duty boat lifter. Those forks are some 15ft long. This one was caught at rest at Tierra Verde Marina, south of St. Pete Beach.
MPH, that is. I'm pretty sure if you counted from either end of VA-18 between Paint Bank, VA and Covington, VA you'd have reached Curve No.40 way before this point no matter which direction you were going.
I did a Levels correction on this as the exposure wasn't quite right. The Z50 seemed to want to over expose a bit while using the adapted lens. I operated it on Manual, selecting either f8 or f5.6, and watching how the the scene looked in the viewfinder or screen before making a shutter speed adjustment.
The same view with the Z DX 16-50mm 1:3.5-6.3 VR looked a whole lot better straight out of camera at the 35mm setting (to get the same field of view as the adapted lens).
How many of you have felt alone at any point in time? Have many of you have found that your horizon is faint? Anyone's life is sometimes like this picture.
I quite often like to contemplate some moments in my photography, to think about what is going.
When I visualized “Alone”, I knew straight away what I wanted as a picture. It was obvious. I had plenty of time to get the shot, my decision was to take time and appreciate it. I could clearly see the fainted horizon, the bare line that makes you wonder where you going. The sign, your only secure place. The sign that helps guiding you against the danger of the sea. The sign that tells you how deep the water is. The piece of land, where you are at the moment, cornered, afraid to cross the ocean.
This shot was taken with the new Hitech ProStop 10 IR version which I did a comparison here: www.byviniphotography.com/index.php/2013/01/hitech-prosto....
I processed this picture in Silver Effex mainly and some dodge and burn in CS6 and then finishing adding just a tiny border around.

A rather alarming sign we encountered yesterday on our walk round Mersea Island! We did keep calm, but we didn't carry on! We took a detour round the breach!
Manly Beach - but as the sign says, not the most ideal spot on an otherwise beautiful beach to set yourself up for the day...
Since the pandemic began, B.C. fisheries officers say they're seeing 3 times as many people harvesting clams in Metro Vanouver waters including White Rock's Boundary Bay.
Harvesting shellfish like clams and mussels — called bivalve shellfish — is illegal in B.C.'s Lower Mainland.
Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has banned bivalve shellfish harvesting across the bays and inlets of Metro Vancouver and up the Fraser River because of pollution and naturally occurring toxins.
Bivalve shellfish are filter feeders, which means any contaminants in the water can build up inside them and make them potentially deadly to human consumers.
If consumed, naturally occurring toxins produced by phytoplankton in the water can lead to diarrhetic, amnesic and paralytic forms of shellfish poisoning. Paralytic shellfish poisoning is potentially fatal.
As for the idea you can cook your way to a safe clam, that is simply not the case. While cooking will prevent you from getting bacterial illnesses, it's not going to do anything with the toxins. They are resistant to cooking. And, in fact, sometimes the toxins get more potent after cooking.
While illness should be a deterrent so too should be fines. People caught illegally harvesting shellfish risk tickets starting at $250, with additional fines for each shellfish up to $100,000.

Found this Bison making sure the public was warned about wildlife on the roadways. Was taken in Yellowstone National Park.
Actually, a visit to the hygenist. All handled very efficiently. Entrance and exit and waiting area all extremely well organised.
Beware underpants liable to flood warning sign seen on the underpass that connects Central Park and Frank Whitmore Green in the City of Chelmsford in the County of Essex (UK).
This pedestrian and cycling underpass has a notorious reputation for frequent flooding.
