Meet Lear. This cute little orangutan is deep in thought, pondering his survival in the face of the increased destruction of his habitat.
This is Dokkoon, one of the new arrivals at Melbourne Zoo, having her morning bath.
She’s an interesting creature… the fur looks so luxurious that you feel compelled to try and pat her but then those eyes send another message. / You’ve caught her attention now and she’s about to come back for another pass… can you avoid this natural hunter?
i must go whereever the wind takes me / so let me fly unicorn ink / 1997 waterfalls seasons lighthouses sunrises black and white ships and cars ink and color moonandstars sunrises animals / and critters flowers lightning clouds mountains birds winter amusement parks airplanes and helicopters
Taken on October 28th 2007 near my mother’s place on the North East coast of Québec..It also happened to be the day that Grand mother passed away… I think that the wind were taking her away…
Here is another little field flower that I have never seen before… I have no idea what it is. But it was a willing subject, so I brought a memory of it home. LavenderMoon~

(M is for Mountains) / Just to the right of this scene sprawls one of the largest cities in the world—Los Angeles. It is a testiment to what can be achieved by protecting our environment. That we should destroy our beautiful untouched land in order to solve immediate problems of the day, such as high gas prices makes me ill. It is short-sighted in the extreme. I think we as photographers are doing something about it when we capture the natural beauty around us.

Algonquin Park Ontario, CANADA / September 26th 2009 / Nikon D40, Nikkor VR 55-200mm lens We first came upon Roxy sitting in the middle of the road in front of the ranger station and entry gate to Algonquin Park, northeast side, on the way to Grand Lake. As soon as we parked, she approached us and alternately scampered about the parking lot. / She was so sweet and kept quickly coming close to me to inspect what I was doing as I madly tried to capture her image with the zoom lens I had on the camera. / I loved the gentle inquisitive look in her eyes. I really wanted to pet her but knew better, despite my compulsion to name this little red fox, she is a wild animal with very pointy little teeth.

Algonquin Park Ontario, CANADA / September 26th 2009 / Nikon D40, Nikkor VR 55-200mm lens My husband went into the park station to buy our day permits and I lingered in the parking lot to see exactly what Roxy would do. But at one point, I wanted more information about her , so I followed him inside to question the ranger about her presence. He told me that unfortunately, despite being told not to, people had been feeding her and therefore she came back almost everyday. He said she obviously was old enough to hunt on her own and was from a spring litter. I made a joke, saying I would love to take her home with me! And I wondered out loud if my two cats would get along with her. With a wicked grin, the ranger told me:”Oh she will definitely like your cats!” / When I came outside she was taking “cat naps” on the pavement. But as soon as I would start to take pictures, she would run around the parking lot again.

Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland is one of the most recognised and loved castles in all of England and Europe. The site where the castle now stands was previously home to a fort of the native Britons known as Din Guarie and it “may have been the capital of the British kingdom of the region from the realm’s foundation in c.420 until 547, the year of the first written reference to the castle. In that year the citadel was captured by the Anglo-Saxon ruler Ida of Bernicia (Beornice) and became Ida’s seat. It was briefly retaken by the Britons from his son Hussa during the war of 590 before being relieved later the same year.” It was his grandson who then gave it to his wife Bebba. This is where we get the early name Bebanburgh, the basis of its name today. The original fortification was destroyed by the Vikings in 993. “The Normans built a new castle on the site, which forms the core of the present one.” The castle is built on a core of basalt, a grey or black volcanic rock, recognisable by the geometric patterns it forms when it quickly cools on the earth’s surface, which means it is built on a very sure foundation. The beauty of this castle stands out for miles. Standing here, there is something so romantic about the fluid tall grass blowing in the breeze, and the strong structure, withstanding the onslaught of natures forces. You can take tours of this lovely old Castle, and the grounds are open to enjoy. The castle has it’s own preservation group and is self sustained. Images of the castle have been taken and published by English Heritage, though it has nothing else to do with the property.
