It's one of the best talks I've ever watched! The first 10 minutes resonate so strongly with what I've been exploring recently. This guy just Gets It™️ (has quite the technical background too 😉).
Everything about this was so engaging and exciting. Really has me itching to look into it, years later.
Deception Pass Bridge between Whidbey and Fidalgo Islands, Washington. Deception pass got its name because explorers through it was a river leading inland from the San Juan Islands. Actually, it was just the tide rushing out from the narrows between the two islands.
This is the legendary Devprayag - one of the 5 Prayags - called Panch (5) Prayags (confluences) of devbhoomi Uttarakhand, India. The two differently coloured rivers are Alaknanda and Bhagirathi, which join together to give birth to River Ganga (it's not called Ganges!). This is where the lifeline of North India and Hindus takes birth, at the holy site of Devprayag.

Alpenglow at Mt. Dronagiri in Uttarakhand, India. This is from the Kuari Pass Trek. Captured on my Pixel 7 Pro.
Mt. Dronagiri is the legendary mountain which was broken off by Bajrang Bali for Sanjeevni Booti to revive Lakshman Ji in the Battle of Ramayana.

The Bisti/De-Na-Zin Wilderness encompasses 41,170 acres of rock formations that would seem more natural on Mars. It is one of several protected badlands in the Four Corners area. Ah-She-Sle-Pah Wilderness is a few miles south. Angel Peak badlands is about 20 miles northeast.
Unlike dunes composed of quartz-based sand, gypsum does not readily convert the sun’s energy into heat. As a result, the surface temperature of White Sands doesn’t get as hot as sand on a beach. Walking barefoot on the dunes is comfortable most of the year. Even when the surface of the sand gets too hot, it is cool just below the surface, because the gypsum retains moisture from the playa of the Alkali Flat.
Bouteille à la mer: Est-ce que quelqu'un à Paris/banlieue a des #chaînes à #neige à prêter/donner/vendre pour la semaine du 10 février ? C'est pour des pneus 195/65/R15 (une #Scenic 2 si jamais vous avez la même). Ci-dessous la liste des modèles qui conviennent.
À noter que j'ai aussi des chaînes jamais utilisées pour la taille de pneus juste en dessous (185/65/R15 mais ça fait aussi d'autres tailles). À donner. Dites-moi si ça vous intéresse.
I hope everyone enjoyed the festive season and here in the UK, are counting the minutes of daylight gained each day...
I don't take many landscape images as I've not got the skill nor patience, but I had to capture the serenity of a still day looking across the Beauly Firth the other day.
Evening all I hope you've had a good day today ? Calling it a night, been a long day. I've been reviewing this year. thankfully it was better than last (not difficult since I've not had a heart attack this year, to date) But i was looking how my photos have changed to previous years. Are they better or worse? I'm not sure. Some I like, others I don't as much. I probably don't feel as comfortable as I used to do behind a camera though wish I knew why!
Anyway, I hope my enthusiasm will come back along with a better sense of composition, thats my new years wish anyway!
