Les chevaux n'ont rien à faire dans un cirque, ni aucun autre animal, d'ailleurs. Mais il y a toujours une exception qui confirme la règle.
Le cirque Knie a bâti sa réputation sur ses chevaux, en grande partie. Lipizzans, Frisons, Andalous, etc, la famille Knie a toujours vécu avant tout pour les chevaux et je suis obligée de reconnaître que leurs chevaux sont magnifiques et fort bien traités.
I don't like to see horses and any other animal performing in a circus. It's not the place of this wonderful animal. But I'm obliged to admit that the Knie's circus has always had beautiful horses which are very well treated !
On a pleasant April 3, 2000, afternoon, a fleet of Rio Grande Tunnel Motors gathers beneath the Book Cliffs looming over Helper Yard in Utah.

Torneträsk or Torne träsk is a lake in Kiruna Municipality, Lapland, Norrbotten County in Sweden, in the Scandinavian mountain range. Träsk is the local word for lake (in Standard Swedish it means "swamp"). It is the sixth largest lake in Sweden, with a total area of 330 square kilometres and a length of 70 kilometres. The lake drains to the south-east through Torne älv. South-west of the lake lie the Abisko National Park and the UNESCO World Heritage Site Laponian area.
Torneträsk originated from the remnant of a glacier, which has given the lake its depth of 168 metres, making it the second deepest lake in Sweden. It is usually ice-covered from December through June, with variations dependent on temperature variations.

Cordon del Caulle - Lago Ranco (Chile)
Probablemente este rio nunca mas vuelva a ser como uds lo ven en esta foto. Debido a la erupcion del Volcan Puyehue-Caulle en estos dias, esta zona ha quedado bajo una masa de cenizas y piedras volcanicas. Sera interesante ver que hara la naturaleza para volver a maravillarnos.

La neige au village
Lente et calme, en grand silence
Elle descend, se balance
Et flotte confusément
Se balance dans le vide,
Voilant, sur le ciel livide,
L'église au clocher dormant.
Pas un soupir, pas un souffle,
Tout s'étouffe et s'emmitoufle
De silence recouvert.

Shot this for the abstract theme for a local photography group. I was off yesterday so I thought I'd screw around heehee! Have a nice day everyone! :o)

An aside... while thinking about this image I learned
that we possess a tiny crystal of magnetite in the ethmoid bone, located between the eyes, just behind the nose.
Magnetite is a magnetic mineral
also possessed by homing pigeons,
migratory salmon, dolphins, honeybees, bats...
Perhaps the sense behind following one's nose ;-)
A cold and piercing wind in the deserted countryside . The harsh hand of winter is felt and even the sun retreats shivering.

Gestern Morgen nicht weit von zu Hause. Diesen Kirschbaum mit den herbstlich leuchtenden Blättern konnte ich einfach nicht ohne ein paar Fotos stehen lassen;-)

Victoria ist eine Pflanzengattung in der Familie der Seerosengewächse (Nymphaeaceae), die aufgrund ihrer enormen Blattgröße im deutschen auch Riesenseerosen genannt werden. Kurz bevor ich von Bayern weggezogen bin, war ich das letzte Mal im Botanischen Garten in Erlangen. Ich wurde von Mutter Natur beschenkt mit einer seltenen Fotografie der Victoria-Seerose. Viele Jahre hatte ich im Botanischen Garten in Erlangen fotografiert und hatte niemals die Möglichkeit gehabt die Victoria-Blüte zu sehen, da normalerweise nur Nachts die Blüte aufgeht und es die Öffnungszeiten nicht zuließ, diese wunderbare Blüte zu fotografieren. Es war ein kühler Morgen und ich war überrascht als ich die offene Blüte der Victoria sehen durfte.
Viel Spaß beim betrachten.
Victoria is a genus in the family Nymphaeaceae (Nymphaeaceae), called because of their enormous size sheet in German giants lilies. Just before I moved away from bavaria, I was the last time at the Botanical Garden in Erlangen. I was gifted by Mother Nature with a rare photograph of the Victoria lily. For many years I had photographed at the Botanical Garden in Erlangen and had never had the opportunity, the Victoria Bloom to see because usually only at night the flower opens and did not allow the opening times to photograph this wonderful flower. It was a cool morning and I was surprised when I could see the open flower of Victoria.
Have fun look.

玩得开心的样子。
