Bealach na Ba (The Pass of the Cattle), on the road to Applecross in the northwest Highlands… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

This was once a drovers’ road for taking the cattle over the mountains to market. A road that has to be seen to be believed. It goes from sea level up to about 2000 feet and back to sea level over roughly 11 miles of the narrowest, twistiest and steepest strip of tarmac you can imagine. All worth the effort for the views though…

Firefall
Firefall is a relative newly discovered phenomenon discovered in Yosemite National Park not to be confused with the old firefall that was manmade.
This is a tough shot to get and some years it doesn't happen.
This is Horsetail Falls. In February, for roughly 10 days, the sun comes into alignment and reflects off of the rocks to create this phenom. See the full image here: fineartamerica.com/featured/fi #Firefall #AYearForArt #BillGallagherPhotography #HorsetailFalls #YosemiteNationalPark

It's Brattleboro Winter Carnival Week, so it's time for the Artful Ice Shanties - blinged up ice fishing shacks.

They are parked at the Retreat Farm so you can enjoy them without venturing onto the ice.

See ALT TEXT for further descriptions.

Boar have sanctuary on my three hectare abandoned vineyard in Bugey France. Babies have arrived. Moultrie trail cam.

Does anyone know of a faster #Bookwyrm instance than bookwyrm.social? I just started using it a few weeks ago, and it is like 1997 dial-up speed at best.

This was my iPad, Netflix and PlayStation all in one.

#ThrowBackThursday

So I finished #sewing this cute little sea pancake yesterday :D

I do have some experience handsewing because of embroidery (backstitch is useful all around!) but I haven't really sewn anything before. Came out perfect and super cute though!
