and #42 - Wheel, 52 in 2016 Challenge

The Falkirk Wheel is a unique boat lift in the world. It replaces a series of 11 locks linking the canals from Glasgow to Edinburgh. The Falkirk rotary lift has a diameter of 35 metres and lowers or raises ships to a height of 25 metres. A set of double doors allows the boat to enter on one side and to leave on the other side. The wheel turns the two caissons, each weighing 300 tonnes, while the gearing system keeps them perfectly horizontal.

I took this from a Seattle Ferry of the Seattle Great Wheel when they were first building and installing it. Cranked up the HDR to show details in all of the different building textures

Preoccupied and busy, with our eyes glued to electronic screens, we think we have control of time.

But nature keeps her own calendar.

Colours fade, petals fall, seeds harden, the garden closes itself with or without my help.

Round and round go the hands of time.

A person, who values ​​the beauty of nature and ambient in the world, for richer and happier than those, who did not notices this.

Life is like a wheel. Sooner or later, it always come around to where you started again.

Wheel of Worship

The large red-eyed damselfly (Erythromma najas) is a striking damselfly known for its typical mating behavior. Here are the key facts: Mating and egg-laying: Females only come to the water to mate and lay eggs. The male often approaches the female with a "dancing flight." Mating wheel: During mating, the damselflies form a so-called mating wheel. In this position, the male holds the female behind the head with his abdominal appendages, while the female bends her abdomen towards the male's genitals. Tandem egg-laying: After mating, the male and female often continue to lay eggs in "tandem" (coupled together). They usually deposit the eggs in aquatic plants, often on floating leaves of, for example, the water lily. Appearance: The male is easily recognizable by his bright red eyes, a largely black abdomen, and blue segments 9 and 10 at the tip. Females do not have red eyes. Flight period: The large red-eyed damselfly can be seen from early May to mid-August.

Must admit, I took a break from Flickr for a couple of days.

But anyways, this is the Wheel of Brisbane. Taken early in the morning, so that the lights were still on, which I think adds a bit more interest to the otherwise dark scene.

Thanks so much for all your faves and comments guys, really appreciate them! Have a great day!

This shot was one that somehow got forgotten for quite a long while in the backlog archives. The spinning wheel is what I would describe the Singapore Flyer, one of the world's largest Ferris Wheels. Stay safe, everyone.
