This is near my twin brother’s place in Colorado, USA. It’s so wild west I love it!

A circus is a traveling company of performers including acrobats, clowns, trained animals, hula hoopers… Common acts include a variety of acrobatics and gymnastics including tightrope walking, trapeze and floor routines, the combination of juggling and gymnastics is called equilibristics and include acts like plate spinning.Clowns are common to most circuses.Daredevil stunt acts and sideshow acts are parts of circus acts, including human cannonball, chapeaugraphy, fire eating, breathing and dancing, knife throwing, magic shows, sword swallowing or strongman. Juggling is a form of object manipulation. The most recognizable form of juggling is toss juggling, where the juggler throws objects through the air. Jugglers often refer to the objects they juggle as props, the most popular being balls, beanbags, rings, clubs, or bouncing balls. Some performers use dangerous objects such as chainsaws, knives and fire torches, although when done by a trained performer using the proper equipment are far less dangerous than they appear. Juggling also includes most prop-based circus skills such as diabolo, devil sticks, poi, cigar box manipulation, fire-dancing, contact juggling, and hat manipulation.

Turtles are reptilians of the Order Testudines, most of whose body is shielded by a special bony or cartilaginous shell developed from their ribs. About 300 species are alive today, and some are highly endangered.Turtles cannot breathe in water, but they can hold their breath for various periods of time.They breathe air and don’t lay eggs underwater, although many species live in or around water. The largest turtles are aquatic.(Wikipedia.org)
Just a fun pic during the recent floods :)
VIEUW LARGER / TucTuc’s in very busy Bikaner, transport!!! / India rajahstan
Travelling of road in Rajahstan on a dirt road which sort of slowly ends up in many tracks…ehhhh where do we go now?? we waited for a while and saw these two women walking towards us, so i asked her in hand and smiling language where to go,...they where just smiling and smiling ,they where so shy AND SOOOO beautifull so i thought ’ i better take a shot’’...we finally managed to find the road again,.just before dark…Rajahstan, India
Burning down the highway, going to a show…
On our drive up to Polipoli this morning we stopped along the way to watch the paragliders, as I stepped out of our truck this vehicle was driving by with two adorable Shelties barking happily like small children thrilled to be outdoors on a beautiful rain soaked morning on Maui. I love the look of this candid shot, especially the brilliant blue sky and clouds reflected in the window.

Polipoli Springs is an upcountry park with towering trees and stunning views of the Maui lowlands and the neighboring islands of Lana’i and Kaho’olawe. Paragliding is a recreational and competitive flying sport. A paraglider is a free-flying, foot-launched aircraft. The pilot sits in a harness suspended below a fabric wing, whose shape is formed by the pressure of air entering vents in the front of the wing. The pilot is loosely and comfortably buckled into a harness which offers support in both the standing and sitting positions. Modern harnesses are designed to be as comfortable as a lounge chair in the sitting position. Many harnesses even have an adjustable ‘lumbar support’. A reserve parachute is also typically connected to a paragliding harness. Brakes: Controls held in each of the pilot’s hands connect to the trailing edge of the left and right sides of the wing. These controls are called ‘brakes’ and provide the primary and most general means of control in a paraglider. The brakes are used to adjust speed, to steer (in addition to weight-shift), and flare (during landing). Weight Shift: In addition to manipulating the brakes, a paraglider pilot must also lean in order to steer properly. Such ‘weight-shifting’ can also be used for more limited steering when brake use is unavailable, such as when under ‘big ears’ (see below). More advanced control techniques may also involve weight-shifting. Speed Bar: A kind of foot control called the ‘speed bar’ (also ‘accelerator’) attaches to the paragliding harness and connects to the leading edge of the paraglider wing, usually through a system of at least two pulleys (see animation in margin). This control is used to increase speed, and does so by decreasing the wing’s angle of attack. This control is necessary because the brakes can only slow the wing from what is called ‘trim speed’ (no brakes applied). The accelerator is needed to go faster than this. More advanced means of control can be obtained by manipulating the paraglider’s risers or lines directly: Most commonly, the lines connecting to the outermost points of the wing’s leading edge can be used to induce the wingtips to fold under. The technique, known as ‘big ears’, is used to increase rate of descent (see picture). / The risers connecting to the rear of the wing can also be manipulated for steering if the brakes have been severed or are otherwise unavailable. / In a ‘B-line stall’, the second set of risers from the leading-edge/front is gently pulled down to put a crease across the lower surface of the wing (this will also distort the upper surface) acting as an ‘air brake’ significantly reducing airspeed. The combination of reduced forward airspeed and increased vertical airspeed destroys the laminar flow of air over the aerofoil, dramatically reducing the lift produced by the canopy, thus inducing a higher rate of descent. / Paragliding
