As usual spring makes step forward and two steps back. It's getting warmer and then much colder again.
An another bw from the pretty small village to the north from my city.
Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.
St Monans pier in the east coast of Fife. It's actually tougher than it looks to photograph this. The waves are very unpredictable and every so often, you get battered with water.

Light trails on the Plöcken Pass.
This mountain pass links Austria (Carinthia) to Italy (Friuli-Venezia Giulia). Last summer I've been driving through many alpine roads and mountain passes and on my way to south I was still looking for a photogenic hairpin bend to do some light trails with. And here it is. After driving it I couldn't resist giving it a try. So, as usual, I've asked my girlfriend if we could stop for five minutes so I could get ready and hope for cars to pass by. Bless her patience..
Histoire
La plus ancienne gravure connue à ce jour vient de Trinil (Indonésie). Datant de 500 000 ans, son auteur est un Homo erectus. Il s'agit de zigzags tracés par un outil pointu sur une coquille de mollusque.
Autres usages
Des lignes zigzag sont utilisées en signalisation routière horizontale (ainsi en France, une ligne zigzag peinte en jaune permet de marquer au sol un arrêt de bus).
En couture, le point (ou la couture) zigzag est un point de machine à coudre. Il est notamment utilisé pour coudre un élastique, réaliser des surpiqûres, ou encore un surfilage : réalisé sur le bord d'un tissu, il permet d'éviter que ce dernier ne s'effiloche.
Un grand merci pour vos favoris, commentaires et encouragements toujours très appréciés.
Many thanks for your much appreciated favorites and comments.
More false colour infra red on Dartmoor near Widecombe. I loved the patten made by this old dry stone wall meandering off into the distance.
This lightweight sand fence is found in many patterns, all to control beach erosion caused by wind and storms, a big problem on the narrow barrier island of Long Beach Island. It's also very scenic, I think. Or maybe that's because I'm from New Jersey!
A Pano, sabotaged.
No Photoshop work, except to crop the image.
