Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.
Ann Landers
Well, who has an idea where we ended up? That's right, that's Lake Constance, with the island of Lindau in the middle of the picture.
Severe storms were announced for the coming night, which finally broke over us. When we reached our spectacular vantage point near Eichenberg in Austria, the sky was already covered with thick, dark clouds. The prospect of a sunset view (the real reason we went here) was extremely minimal. Only on the horizon was there a thin, light stripe that was enough for us to decide to wait..
Luckily, because suddenly the cloud cover opened in exactly the right place like a heavenly portal and we were treated to a spectacular nature experience.
We could only stand and marvel as the light and the atmosphere kept changing with the setting sun and the moving clouds. An utterly mesmerizing sight.
The only awkward part of this trip came when, from the many shots, I had to choose one over all the others. Hell for a photographer.
Na, wer hat schon eine Idee, wo es uns hinverschlagen hat ? Richtig, das ist der Bodensee, mit der Insel Lindau in der Mitte des Bildes.
Für die kommende Nacht wurden uns schwere Unwetter angekündigt, welche dann schlußendlich auch über uns hereingebrochen sind. Als wir unseren spektakulären Aussichtspunkt bei Eichenberg in Österreich erreicht hatten, war der Himmel auch schon von dicken und dunklen Wolken bedeckt. Die Aussicht auf einen Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang (der eigentliche Grund unseres Besuches hier) war äußerst gering. Lediglich am Horizont war ein dünner heller Streifen zu sehen der ausgereicht hat, dass wir uns zum Abwarten entschieden.
Zum Glück, denn plötzlich öffnete sich genau an der richtigen Stelle die Wolkendecke gleich einem himmlischen Portal und wir wurden mit einem spektakulären Naturerlebnis beschenkt.
Wir konnten nur dastehen und staunen, denn der Lichteinfall und die Atmosphäre veränderten sich mit der sinkenden Sonne und den sich bewegenden Wolken ununterbrochen. Ein ganz und gar faszinierender Anblick.
Der einzig unangenehme Teil dieses Ausfluges kam, als ich mich, aus den vielen Aufnahmen, für eine und somit gegen alle anderen enscheiden musste. Die Hölle für einen Fotografen.

Oh well .....
Whenever Lynx asks me to put a new bottle of wine at Monocle Man....we end up drinking it together ☺
Always a nice time with a lovely chat and this time a little snapshot.
Thanks for our friendship, as it is one of a kind!
Though......Next time...
you'll bring cheese, partner !

"...Stay, don't leave me
The stars can't for your sign
Don't signal now
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing we can do now
Goodnight, travel well"

Happy Travel Thursday, everyone!
Seen from my garage window. I left a lot of my fallen apples on the ground this year and have had several grateful deer enjoying them.
I liked the yellow barrels in the forefront, the colour was striking. Beautiful Wells harbour stretches behind, with a yacht, birds and marshes. The barrels were a temporary fence - gone next time I was there. HFF!
Another shot from my recent trip to Yorkshire. There are great views "on the tops" - up the hills and across the hilltop farmland and moors. That's Stoodley Pike in the distance, a memorial celebrating Napoleon's defeat in 1814.
The river I posted shots of is in the valley bottom right, and the start of the town of Hebden Bridge can be seen in the middle.
Thanks for looking. Have a great weekend!
Montezuma Well, a detached unit of Montezuma Castle National Monument, is a natural limestone sinkhole near the town of Lake Montezuma, Arizona, through which some 1,500,000 US gallons of water emerge each day from an underground spring. It is located about 11 miles northeast of Montezuma Castle. Wikipedia
Address: Forest Service Road 618, Rimrock, AZ 86335
How deep;
Measurements made on previous dives showed the west vent as deep 82 feet (137 feet overall) and the east vent at 40 feet (95 feet overall). The National Park Service dive team also lowered a camera some 40 feet into the west vent and discovered it was a continual column of fluidized sand for the entire depth.Sep 28, 2021

Red fox kits near their den. These adorable red fox kits will be a bit difficult to photograph because the den is in a really bushy area. The good thing is mama fox chose a very safe area for them because they are so well hidden!
Well, not really. This is a rare pic of the three Pie-billed Grebes together. Usually they are by themselves. Bucks County PA.

This is the ‘working’ part of Wells-Next-The Sea. Less busy than the harbour, it’s a peaceful spot. The estuary is bathing in the late afternoon sunshine. This is one of the first photographs I took with the new lens for the Canon. The lens still feels like a stranger and I am in the early stages of building a relationship with it.

It is well known now as Shakespeare's phrase "The Darling Buds of May" was used as the title for his novel by H.E. Bates... which has since been adapted for television too 😊
Apologies for using my Japanese plum in 3 successive photos - I am enjoying it before it freezes (-2.6c last night)

Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
I went to look for the chamois again today, and although they showed up they didn’t seem pleased that I had brought my mom along... they made a big show of giving warning calls and sprinting towards cover while not appearing particularly nervous. (They do remind me a bit of cats.) As I didn’t manage to capture their show very well I took a few flower shots instead...
The three ponds at Waggoners Wells in East Hampshire are popular as a cool shady retreat in summer and for the spectacular yellows and golds of the beech trees in autumn..
This lady elk had plenty to eat during the summer of '22. That's a good thing as it increases her odds of surviving the lean times ahead through winter in the Rocky Mountains.
This shot was made during the elk rut in Rocky Mountain National Park. A bull and his harem had just crossed the open meadow and this cow was bringing up the rear.
Utah Railway’s former Southern Pacific SD45s No. 9144, 9146, 9148, and 9147 pull a Wattis Plateau coal train around the Barry Curve west of Payson, Utah the afternoon of Oct. 9, 1987. These well-worn 45s were leased by the Utah Railway from Helm Financial for five years, pictured on a run through from Provo to Intermountain Power on Union Pacific’s Provo Subdivision.

Red-tailed Hawk looks suitably offended after being driven to the ground by a group of Steller's Jays. I first noticed it on a branch across the Salmon Creek Trail with a baby rabbit. I took a few (poorly lit) photos, but a couple of very loud women walked under the branch, and caused the hawk to fly into a nearby tree. I took some photos of it eating in its new perch, with lots of branches in the way. And then the jays arrived. At one point it got to be too much and the hawk flew down to the ground. It still had some rabbit fur in its talons. I wonder if it got enough of its meal...I suspect the jays may have taken the rest of it. After a few minutes of sitting on the ground, it flew into some low branches of another tree, and then I lost track of it.
Well to this Great Spangled Fritillarie anyway......... the Butterfly's and Bees are all over our flower gardens this Year. Our yard
A shifter out of Danville, WV works the Wells Prep Plant near Van, WV with a gorgeous AC44 and a younger sister GE. The track gradient is really obvious here. The conductor on this job was very friendly. He came and chatted with me and a couple other goobs and made friends with Dakota the railfan pup.
