estampe tree deux by Sonia de Macedo-Stewart

same tree, different treatment / / canon 40D I missed the golden light by just a few seconds… I got a few other trees with the sunset light, but they had nothing like the character of this spectacular tree – on the way to my home. I had to stop in the middle of the road with my hazard lights, nothing to stop on the side, and right after a bend… Not very smart, but worth it I think ;-)

What I am hoping for by jchanders

I am still hoping to get a chance like this during this month. These moments are so precious, however, that they like beautiful butterflies. You have to be there just in time on the right day and with the right sort of weather conditions. Or they are gone. Even following the weather report closely the evening before you are never able to forecast the exact situation at a certain spot. So there is only the trying. Some of you might say: why try to repeat what you did before? Well, there is always the challenge of an even better result. But to be honest: it will be difficult to improve on what I managed to achieve here on a lucky morning like this one near Lage Vuursche in October 2007.

Autumn in Santry Demesne by Martina Fagan

/ ©MCN:CRC7W-M4HJ7-L64XJ / Canon 500D / as is / f/5 / 1/15sec / 18mm on 18-200mm sigma lens / ISO 100 / Manual Exp / Santry Demesne (Santry Court) Where the new Santry Demesne public park is situated was once a palatial old house and gardens, built in the 1700s. This was once the largest house in North County Dublin and people travelled from far and wide to be received by the owners, the Barry family. Many clues of the house still exist and the park is worth visiting to find the house foundations, front steps, tree avenue and walled garden. A small bend in the Santry River (which forms the boundary of the park today) was widened to create a small pond for the boating pleasure of Georgian ladies and gentlemen who resided at, and visited, the house. The house fell into disrepair, initially at the turn of the century as the estate proved not to be economically viable but ultimately after the Domville family departed Ireland post-independence in 1921. It came into the possession of the state, who intended to repair it and use it as a mental asylum. This plan was shelved by the start of World War II; the need to increase security around Dublin Airport meant it was used as an army depot, and part of the gardens as a firing range. There are many theories locally about what happened next but it appears as if soldiers of the Irish army caused a fire and the house was severely damaged in 1947, followed by demolition shortly afterwards. info from here at wikipedia

Palace within the Alhambra in Granada, Spain by Linda More

Immigrating to Europe by Gili Orr

Coming from Israel, European winters are not easy to adjust to… Being an immigrant requires a lot of adjustment on many other levels. If you immigrate to an English speaking country, at least you understand much of what people around you are talking, right from the start. I immigrated first to Finlad, learning its language slowly… only to immigrate again to a country with a strange new language – Holland. Not knowing the language of the country is quite isolating. Above and beyond that one must learn the culture, the customs, the expectations of people regarding just about every word you say… or should have said;-)
