I was hoping the leaves falling would make it in the pic but I guess they just vanished.

My ferry to the town I was staying in on the Amalfi coast got diverted to Salerno Italy due to rough seas. I saw the best sunset of my trip because of it. #Happylittleaccidents

Ok, this is probably not what you think it is.

This is the moon, not the sun. It was very bright last night.

I have one of those too, we were walking the little G down to the bus stop, it's still dark here at 6:45 (can't wait for the time change), I shot this, it's not edited other than sized:

a nice steep hill that I can just make it up.

Wow, that's amazing... even steeper than a few runaway truck ramps I've seen over the years....

have not attempted it on the tandem. but we found one about that steep and just made it up with a crap ton of effort. we get up steep hills better now. if I go up that hill from our place its like 1.5 miles and a bit over 1000 feet of climbing.

For me, the problem would be not knowing what is on the other side of that steep climb......a very steep descending hill, too? That scares me more than the ascent part of climbing up the hill!

Oops, almost forgot to present my image for today:

Got several of these from yesterday morning (mentioned in my "What are you doing ..." post), but this one was pretty amazing __and__ the way the sun is blooming, it looks like a nuclear weapon was detonated!

I was so happy this morning to see that we've got at least one Hooded Merganser back with us for this winter! Last year we had ten of them, so I'm guessing that the rest of the gang is around somewhere but I just haven't seen them yet.

It poured all day.....but I was able to step out on the deck with the 135mm lens that I'm using for the Octoberfest project on Nikon Cafe and eventually got this shot of two cormorants, one doing the classic wing flap:

Is this Loyola of New Orleans?

I believe it's the Salisbury cathedral.
