Above, a sunset photo still in my folder from March, and below the last from a lovely sunset evening concert at the Muziekgebouw up by the harbor in May.
Wrapping up the last photos from the lovely Open Garden days exploration, back in June. These photos come from two different gardens, one of which was behind the house with the small museum whose story I’ve photographed :-).
August is Pride Month in Amsterdam, so we wandered up there to see things at the end of the Pride Parade a few weeks ago. The first time this post went up, a glitch deleted the sadder gallery below, one of those reasons I’m so happy to now live in a place where I can be more fully myself :-).
A video showing the full range of things we could see in the village of Soran, below the mountain that has Korek resort with the chair lift. Thought we’d save this as our very last image from the most recent Iraq trip, so you could experience how dramatic it is more directly 🙂
Two more images photographed on that clear late-July walk home from the Concertgebouw, to the apartment I now no longer live in, hence the choice to use both images in the same post as a bit of a farewell to that neighborhood. 🙂
So obviously this particular Borkum lighthouse is newer than the one we’ve shown you before which is labeled on maps as “New Lighthouse.” The distinction is that this one -unlike the other two we saw in our short stay on Borkum – seems still to actually function as lighthouse and is thus locked away behind gates and all. We still haven’t actually shown you the original “old lighthouse,” but bear with us and we will :-).
Last photos from the airplane when I left SF after my last US visit in early April, all three in order in which they were taken as our plane flew north along the central valley not long after take-off from SFO. I’m reasonably confident that’s Lake Beryessa in the first photo, and then more of the Snow Mountain Wilderness area.
With mountains can come waterfalls, so I’ve saved for the end these last two shots of the lovely waterfall we visited down in the valley below the road you see in the photo below. This particular series will now go dormant until I am again close enough to anything I can legitimately call a mountain to take appealing photos. A few trips expected in late August and September might conceivably make that possible…
