The rain began again. It fell heavily, easily, with no
meaning or intention but the fulfillment of its own nature,
which was to fall and fall.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend, my friends!
I took this photo on a snow shoe hike at Sudelfeld, an area that belongs to the Bavarian Alps. The light was just great at this afternoon...there is nothing better than combining two passions - hiking and photography...
Ich habe das Bild während einer Schneeschuhwanderung im Sudelfeld, in den Bayerischen Alpen, geschossen. Das Licht war großartig an diesem Nachmittag...es gibt doch nichts Schöneres als zwei Leidenschaften miteinander zu verbinden - Wandern und Fotografieren...

On n'est plus très loin du sommet de la roche de Solutré et le village de Solutré luit au soleil en dessous de nous, tandis que l'ombre gagne insensiblement du terrain.
De la gelée blanche est restée intacte depuis le matin et parsème les coteaux au milieu de quelques bancs de brume. Au loin, le Mont-Blanc, de plus en plus visible, resplendit au dessus d'une mer de nuages qui recouvre toute la plaine de la Saône.
Et je suis en train de me répéter que j'ai bien fait de sortir, je n'avais jamais vu les lieux comme cela ! Mais le plus beau était encore à venir ...

Light and shadow
We are not very far from the top the Roche de Solutré (Solutre's rock) and the village of Solutre shines in the sun below us, as the shadow imperceptibly grows. White frost has remained intact since the morning and sprinkles the hillsides among some patches of mist.
In the distance, the Mont-Blanc, more and more visible, shines over a sea of clouds that covers the whole plain of the Saône River.
And I'm repeating myself that I did well to go out because i had never seen this place like this! But the most beautiful was yet to come ...

Texel is an island in the province of North Holland in the Netherlands. It is the largest and most populated island of the West Frisian Islands in the Wadden Sea. The island is situated north of Den Helder. The dune landscape on Texel is a unique habitat for wildlife. Notable areas include De Slufter, where the tide comes in and meets the dunes, forming a marshy environment rich in both fauna and flora. Texel is known for its wildlife, particularly in winter, when birds of prey and geese take up residence. About one third of Texel is a protected nature reserve. Nature is at its most unspoilt and raw at the most southerly tip of the island. In particular, the De Hors sandbar shows you how nature goes about its work. New dunes are evolving all the time due to the effects of wind and water. The peace and quiet and the wide open expanses induce an inner calm. The bracing air at De Hors give new energy. This extensive stretch of sand came about as a result of the shifting sandbanks converging with Texel. Nature has free range on this exposed expanse of sand, creating space for the development of new dunes on which marram and rush grass can flourish. The area is also a favourite nesting spot for little terns.
The National Park Dunes of Texel covers roughly the entire dune area, including sandbank The Hors. On the northern edge of The Hors a lot of sand supply. There is wonderful to see how dune formation is done. Man grabs choose not to, given the nature free play. Kanitha exploring the northern edge of the Hors dunes.
Aan de zuidpunt van Texel ligt de Hors. De Hors is een uniek natuurgebied met een enorme strandvlakte. Het is het ruigste stuk van het eiland. Op de Hors kun je prachtig zien hoe jonge duintjes ontstaan. Je mag er vrij tussendoor lopen. Hier zie je hoe duinen ontstaan. Het landschap verandert voortdurend, de natuur krijgt helemaal vrij spel. Op de strandvlakte broeden dwergsterntjes. In de tweede helft van de vorige eeuw zijn op de Hors kunstmatige duinenrijen, stuifdijken, aangelegd die een stuk strand hebben afgesnoerd van de zee. Zo zijn de Horspolders en de Kreeftepolder ontstaan. Het zijn natte gebieden doordat de grondwaterstand hoger werd na de aanleg van de stuifdijken. Er komen bijzondere planten en dieren voor. Bij een grote toevoer van zand ontstaat duinvorming. Op Texel gebeurt dat alleen op de Hors. Langs de stuifdijken, maar ook midden op de vlakte kan biestarwegras groeien. Meestal verdwijnen deze graspollen weer als tijdens storm de zandvlakte onder water staat. Maar als ze het volhouden gaan ze zand vangen en ontstaan er miniduintjes. Die worden hoger en hoger, als er maar aanvoer van zand is. Als de duintjes zo groot zijn dat het zoete regenwater er in vastgehouden blijft, kan er helm gaan groeien. Dat gras vangt veel meer zand en de duinvorming gaat versneld door. Hoger op de Hors zijn veel jonge helmduintjes te vinden. Daartussen komen riet en andere moerasplanten te groeien zodra de grondwaterstand hoog genoeg wordt.
Le retour vers la Place du 18 juin et ses platanes...

A juvenile Green Heron, I believe, photographed late last summer at Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, near Saginaw, Michigan
HBW!
As of 7/1/25, I am correcting my earlier ID. I now think that this is a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron.
Those crisp cloud-funnels looked almost like smoke!
It was pretty stormy here all through September...

J'ai pris avec gourmandise cette dernière photo du magnifique clocher roman de l'abbaye de Cluny. C'était une belle image à garder avant de repartir

Elle était sur la plage,
Caressait de sa main le sable
Le sentir, ressentir.
Pour elle, ces moments n'ont pas de prix.
Toucher les éléments
Sentir l'odeur de l'ocean
Ressentir sur sa peau le soleil
Je la regardais caresser le sable depuis un moment,je me suis approchée et lui ai demandé de prendre ses mains en photos.

Today I was going by bike again. I have visited three "heads" (Kleinheppacher Kopf - 452 m, Hörnleskopf - 426 m and Korber Kopf - 456 m).
On the picture you see the view from Korber Kopf at the vineyard and the town Korb (a municipality in the Rems-Murr district, 15 km northeast of Stuttgart).

Everyone loves spring.
The weather starts to warm, the birds start to sing, kittens and puppies are everywhere. Leaves come out and flowers bloom.
Beautiful spring in Finland.

La basilique de Fourvière a été édifiée dans le dernièr quart du XIXème siècle et inaugurée en 1896. Elle domine toute la ville de LYon.

Lyon
Dernière halte dans l'escalier escarpé montant à Fourvière, j'étais rouge en arrivant en haut de cet escalier ! La vue extraordinaire sur le vieux Lyon et sur la cathédrale Saint-Jean qui se dégage encore un peu plus m'a bien récompensé de l'effort.
NB : J'ai hésité à choisir entre cette photo et la première de la montée (CF commentaire en dessous) qui montrent chacune l'escalier qu'il a fallu gravir. Mais pour finir, je les ai mises chacune en ligne sur Flickr, car je trouve qu'elles le valent toutes les deux.

This view of the Vieux Lyon and Saint John cathedral filled me with joy
Last pause on the steep stairs rising to Fourvière, i was red when reaching the top of the stairs! The outstanding view of the Vieux Lyon ("old Lyon") and Saint John cathedral, which emerges still more, rewarded me well for the effort.
NB: I hesitated to choose between this shot and the first of the rise (see comment below) that each show the stairs I had to climb.
But finally, i got to put each online in Flickr, because i think they are both worth of it.

I have loved his rough look from the day I met him. His name suits his looks - and if he wore clothes, it had to be denim...
Many thanks to David for suggesting the music, which of course must be ZZ Top's Rough boy. :)

My Favorite house in Gaspesie. Unfortunately this house was eaten by several cold winters and wind and it's on the floor right now.
