This Alligator seemed to enjoy just resting on a stone, enjoying a beautiful day with a lot of sunshine. She was only across a small canal from where I was standing. Usually an Alligator will not attack humans, unless she has been fed by them. In Florida it is against the law to feed Alligators. By the way, this alligator is smiling as she sees me as lunch!!!!!

Squamish, BC along the Sea-to-Sky Coastal Highway / Third highest waterfall in BC – Shannon Falls Cultural Heritage: / This park holds significant spiritual value to the Squamish Indians, the first people to live in this area. They told of a two headed sea serpent, Say-noth-ka who lived in and around Howe Sound. According to legend this beast travelled both on land and in water. Some versions say it was Say-noth-ka who formed Shannon Falls by slithering and twisting his powerful body up the mountainside on repeated expeditions, Say-noth-ka gradually wore down a spillway for those cascading waters. /

/ Shannon Falls is composed of a series of cliffs, rising 335 meters above Highways 99, making it the third highest falls in the province, ranking behind 481 metre Della Falls in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island and 396 metre Hunlen Falls in Tweedsmuir Provincial Park near Bella Coola. The tumbling waters of Shannon Falls originate from Mount Habrich and Mount Sky Pilot. This park is directly adjacent to Highway 99, making it a popular day-use park . This park provides picnicking, hiking and access to the trail in Stawamus Chief Provincial Park. The falls were named after Shannon who in 1890-1900 owned the falls and surrounding area and used the clay deposits to make bricks. He then sold the land to Brittania Copper Mines in 1900. In the 1930’s, the area was used as a relief camp for the workers building Highway 99. In 1976 the area was purchased by Carling O’Keefe Brewery, who used the pure mountain water to brew their beer, and made the area a logging show park. In 1982 O’Keefe donated the land to BC Parks. Throughout the park area there is evidence of logging activity that occurred here roughly 90 years ago. A number of excellent spring board notches on old stumps are scattered throughout the forested area and much of the deadfall also exhibits evidence of the logging techniques of this period.

Along the shores of Indian Arm BC Canada, the original Vancouver Pump House sits abandoned in it’s nested place amongst the rocky shoreline. / / History: (Wikipedia) In 1903 the lake was used to power Vancouver’s first hydroelectric power station. A tunnel was excavated through Eagle Mountain from Coquitlam Lake to Buntzen Lake. Coquitlam Lake was dammed, and water flowed 3.6 kilometres (2.2 mi) through the tunnel to Buntzen Lake, and from there, through an outlet at the north end of the lake to two power generating stations on Indian Arm. The first, built in 1903, and the second built in 1914. The first plant was decommissioned in 1999; the second has been rebuilt and is still operational.

This is one of the trees that was blown over in Stanley Park during the 2006 wind storm. this particular tree (Douglas Fir) is over 1,000 years old. They actually cut through the fallen tree, so when you walk through the forest, you walk through this tree . . . it is a VERY impressive old tree. This is only a small part of it.

I did a lot of traveling back when 1 megapixel was the best their was. Now I look sadly at those old pics and wish for more pixels. Happily, one can add pixels, but for most of the old 1 “Meggers” you just get pixelated. So make the best of it. Bump up the pixels with resize in Elements, (just make resolution 340 and pick the measurements you want.) Then head over to Filters and pick 2 or 3 or more to give your pic an artistic touch. This one was treated to the Artistic cutout filter, two watercolor filters and then a poster edge. You get all those funny pixel tiles and such, but the light and the scene are still there and a bit of artistry shows. Comments/suggestions welcome. I’m just learning.

Taken on Saturday 05-09-09. Canon Powershot SX10 IS. Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) west of Amesbury and 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) north of Salisbury. One of the most famous sites in the world, Stonehenge is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones and sits at the centre of the densest complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds.[1] Archaeologists had believed that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC, as described in the chronology below. However one recent theory has suggested that the first stones were not erected until 2400-2200 BC,[2] whilst another suggests that bluestones may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC (see phase 1 below). The surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC. The site and its surroundings were added to the UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites in 1986 in a co-listing with Avebury henge monument, and it is also a legally protected Scheduled Ancient Monument. Stonehenge itself is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage while the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust.3 / New archaeological evidence found by the Stonehenge Riverside Project indicates that Stonehenge served as a burial ground from its earliest beginnings.[5] The dating of cremated remains found on the site shows that burials took place there as early as 3000 BC, when the first ditches were being constructed around the monument. Burials continued at Stonehenge for at least another 500 years.[6] Info from Wikipedia
