A panorama of the dead and bare trees framing a winding path around the lake into the distant fells on a clear summer's evening.
A fence through the ferns serves as a leading line down to the lake and woodland, with the mountains peaks rising above on a summer evening.
Sheep graze in the shade of a tree as golden evening light spills across the rolling land and the distant mountains beyond.

Day 3:

I found many beautiful #flowers, again, today. This one stood out between the tiny red leaves of a barberry hedge. Its size caught my attention, and also the shades of the stamens on the pale pink petals in the sun.

“A watering hole is "a sunken area of land that fills with water". Watering holes can form through a number of processes, one being from elephants digging up termite mounds for nutrients in the soil, repeatedly digging at the same location until a depression large enough to hold a substantial amount of water.”

Or it’s a favourite spot on the burn that flows down to the gardens at Dunvegan Castle. Brodie not only drinks but has been known to retrieve sticks there.

#water #isleofskye #summer

A common misconception associated with watering holes is that, due to the common need for water, predator animals will not attack prey animals in the vicinity of the watering hole. This trope was exploited, for example, by Rudyard Kipling in The Jungle Book, which describes a "truce" at the watering hole as a plot point. In fact, it has been observed that "lions usually ambush their prey by hiding in long grass, often in close proximity to a watering hole". I am fairly confident that there are no lions on Skye.

Bee magnet, Woodtick Trail, Wolcott, Connecticut. August 8, 2020, 5:39 PM.

Reverse image search tells me this sweet-scented wildflower is Joe Pye weed. Feel free to correct me, this is not at all an area of expertise for me. Whatever it is, you could smell its sweet scent from a long way off and the bees seemed to like it.

In a lush green wetland in a forest, several plants with clusters of elongated pinkish violet flowers with white projections are growing. The plant in the foreground is covered with honey bees, three in front atop blossom clusters and one a bit below and to our left. This last bee is mostly hidden by the plants leaves, but its head and part of its body is visible.

Walking a dirt and gravel path beside a large lake. The path is raised about 10 or 15 feet above the lake to our right and a flat stretch of grass to our left. The right shoulder of the path slopes steeply down to the lake and is covered with a wild profusion of leafy shrubs and wildflowers. The left shoulder slopes steeply down to that grassy area, which has been recently mown. The opposite shore is heavily wooded. It is post sunset, the sky is filled with thin clouds streaming past us tinted bright pink and darker purple from beyond the horizon by the rays of the sun. All this is mirrored on the gently rippled lake surface.

It's just occurred to me that the day you get a credit from #Audible for a "free" #audiobook is also the day your monthly membership payment goes out, so you're not really getting a free book at all - crafty buggers!

The #wildfires in #Quebec are a result of unusually warm and dry conditions, consistent with what we expect due to #ClimateChange. What is burning right now is ~equal to 10 or more years of normal fires in #Quebec. Let's hope the region shifts out of dry atmospheric conditions soon, because otherwise it's going to be a long terrible #summer for Quebec, #Canada, and the US. #AirQuality

Time for a 🧵 for the #summer #timetable 2023 with changes announced recently or earlier&called to mind again.

Let's start with a chapter of #Intercity history: The IC 118-119 #Bodensee was introduced in 2003, at this time the only through service between #Innsbruck 🇦🇹 and #Dortmund 🇩🇪 running via #Lindau, #Friedrichshafen and #Ulm.

From 11 June the loco-hauled service will be replaced by newer ICE4 sets. Timings of ICE 118-119 stay the same (no stops in Aulendorf and Göppingen anymore).

IC 118 from Innsbruck to Münster consisting of a DB Intercity composition pulled by an ÖBB 1144 loco next to Flaurling (2008).
IC 119 pulled by an ÖBB 1016 loco and passing Aulendorf (2023).

There are multiple skyscrapers visible, a billboard ad for Wendy’s, and a billboard ad for Corona which reads, ‘La Vida Mas Fina’ above the Beer Authority pub and restaurant. A yellow taxi cab is driving through the intersection headed north on Eighth Avenue. A group of people are standing at the light waiting to cross the street. Taken July 2nd, 2022 at 8:19pm.

A colour street photograph of a man exiting Cardiff's High Street Arcade, stepping out of shadow into sunlight.  My perspective is slightly off, and the shadow positioning isn't quite right, with shadows slightly obscuring the entrance sign.  The composition isn't perfect either, with a half-visible second subject sitting in obscurity, and a passerby crowding the shot behind the main subject.

When Ryan Gosling auditioned for "The Notebook," director Nick Cassavetes told him, "The fact that you have no natural leading man qualities is why I want you to be my leading man." Now, he's playing what's in some ways the ultimate non-leading man: Ken, the adoring doll that orbits Barbie. Gosling talked to GQ about his views on the role, filmmaking, and how fatherhood has changed him.

What a day. The greenness is still fresh as summer hereabouts comes with great whooshes and sudden arrivings. It can be cold at night and in the morning but when the clear, clean air is pierced with sunlight it is the most glorious feeling. Wild flowers don’t show off here. They play a secondary rôle. They hide in the grass and heather; then they wave at us with bursts of colour like tiny flags on a march or a demonstration in favour of joy.

“May soft winds blow about your head,
May sun caress your tender cheeks,
May tears of gentle rain then wash
The marks of fretful care away;
May you remember from this day
Good resolutions and great plans,
Our promises once made believed,
The sharing of our private hopes,
In letters that are signed with love, 
With secret names, with pencilled signs.”  From Summer by Alexander McCall Smith

The woman is studying the screen of a Macbook resting in her lap, her expression calm and focused. Partially hidden by one hand is a sticker decal on the back of the Macbook; it's of a death's head moth.

Finally put the summer tyres on my car. I've been avoiding it for over a month now. I hate it, but not enough to bother looking up a company that can do it for me. My neighbour offered to do it next time for 20€ 😄

Tiny yellow flowers sunset. A thick swirl of clouds and haze brings on the sunset a bit early. New Britain Reservoir, Southington, Connecticut. August 3, 2020, 6:47 PM.

#hiking #photography #landscapephotography #hikingadventures #nature #Connecticut #summer #August #forest #sunset #sunsets #sunsetphotography #trails #lake #summertime

We are alongside the shore of a lake. The flat ground in front of us is covered with small bright green leady shoots speckled with hundreds of little yellow flowers. Several dark gray boulders rise above this low ground cover in the foreground. The far lakeshore has a wide strip of these plants, which resemble grass from a distance. Beyond that strip, a low wooded ridge rises. The sun is low in the sky not far above that ridge, partially burning through the haze and looking enormous. The sky is a swirl of thin clouds and haze around the sun, tinted pale orange and gold. The sky and far shore are mirrored on the dead clam lake surface.
