After being in Tasmania for 10 days and nights we had a starry sky to shoot for a few hours
We arrived here about 11pm after capturing the sunset at Binalong Bay
I got up at 3am to capture this as I needed to wait for the Milkyway to position itself east/west over the Eddystone Point Lighthouse in the Bay of Fires .
There was suppose to be low level Aurora activity most of that week
I used the parking lights on my car to light the lighthouse
I probably should have still lightpainted the immediate foreground
The grounds here were full of wildlife including several wombats feeding on the fresh grass shoots
I went back for a quick sleep before sunrise only to wake to a windy and wet change , so I just got these shots
This is a seven shot stitch
Walkers strolling along the Boardwalk in the Yellowstone's Midway Geyser Basin. The Grand Prismatic Spring is magnificent as seen from the chalky, steep, treacherous hill to it's SW.
The Opal and Turquoise pools are above it with the Excelsior pool steaming to the right.
Thank you for taking a look!

I don't know if there ever was Gold in Cologne, but if there was, they must have put it into this into this bridge. When I got close, I could see there is is another kind of gold on the bridge. It's full of padlocks hung by lovers. I have never ever seen so many padlocks in one place, as on this bridge. It's from one end to the other.

Τα Κορέστεια είναι μια ιστορική περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Πρόκειται για μια συστάδα ορεινών οικισμών (Άνω και Κάτω Κρανιώνα, Χάλαρα, Άνω και Κάτω Μελάς, Μακροχώρι, Μαυρόκαµπος, Άγιος Αντώνιος, Γάβρος) που παρουσιάζουν έντονο αρχιτεκτονικό και πολιτισμικό ενδιαφέρον. Η παραδοσιακή αρχιτεκτονική των χωριών είναι ιδιαίτερη για την περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Τα παλαιά σπίτια είναι κατασκευασμένα με πλίνθους με κοκκινόχωμα και άχυρο, που δίνουν το κοκκινωπό χρώμα στο τοπίο της περιοχής. Ο τρόπος κατασκευής των σπιτιών διατηρήθηκε έως τα μέσα του 20ου αιώνα και έπειτα εγκαταλείφθηκε.
Korestia is a historic region of Western Macedonia in Greece. It’s a cluster of mountain villages (Ano and Kato Kranionas, Halara, Ano and Kato Melas, Makrochori, Mavrokampos, Agios Antonios, Gavros) exhibiting strong architectural and cultural interest. The traditional architecture of the villages is great for the region of Western Macedonia. Old houses are constructed with handmade bricks with red clay and straw, giving a reddish color to the landscape. The construction of the houses was maintained until the mid-20th century and then abandoned.
Here, the automn is like a second spring. Therefore there are not no oranges and red colors in the fallen leaves, maybe the next month. Just some flowers fell.

Created for and inspired by jOe Vance aka oliver.odd in appreciation for his assistance admining "The Hypothetical Awards and associated groups"
jOe besides defying gravity, has been in the really secret service, a galactic explorer extraordinaire, a swashbuckling cape wearing chick magnet and has been known to be a danger to low flying aircraft from time to time.
In his spare time jOe profusely creates some of the most amazing eclectic art imaginable.
Mirror images abound combined with pointillism, melded geometrized abstractions, animals birds,and other species that Darwin could not have envisaged plus the odd trip to places totally of the map.
But wait there's more,but I suggest you take a look at jOe's amazing stream yourself ... word of warning though "you will never see things the same again"

I don't know if there is a word for an alley, when it's a canal. But if there is one, this would be one I think. Bruges is a beautiful medieval city in Belgium. It's worth a visit if you get the chance.

Magic happens at sunset on the flood plains of Chobe Park. The animals can almost hide in the encroaching darkness, but there is always a hint of their presence.

Perhaps another image which finds its beauty in B&W. The original green color was not a shade I was fond of! This was the parting glimpse I had of the beautiful canal that feeds into the lake of the backwaters. There are a few more images of the lake that are coming soon before we leave this beautiful place.

Buddha in parinirvana, Gandhara art, 2nd or 3rd century
Reclining Buddha of Galvihara at Polonnaruwa (Sri Lanka, 12th century)
A reclining Buddha is a statue that represents Buddha lying down and is a major iconographic and statuary pattern of Buddhism. It represents the historical Buddha during his last illness, about to enter the parinirvana[citation needed]. He is lying on the right flank, his head resting on a cushion or relying on his right elbow, supporting his head with his hand.
This pattern seems to have emerged at the same time as other representations of the Buddha in the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandhara.
