Irene2005's photostream  

This was nothing but a happy accident. I was taking pictures of the Pohono Bridge, looked up and saw the sun climbing over the mountain. Of course, bridge had to wait. And while I was taking a shot, the plane zoomed right into the frame.

Another version is in the comments. So is the bridge. For some reason, none of my bridge pictures turned out too well. It was really tricky to get the exposure right...even though I took a bunch of bracketed shots. But I was happy I caught this "Star Wars" moment.

This is what supposed to be the best part of the experience. When the sea is actually there, it comes to the very top of the causeway and it feels like you are walking on water. A mile long causeway connects Haji Ali Dargah, which is built on a tiny island (practically a rock) in the Arabian Sea, to the mainland. Unfortunately, during the low tide months it looks like this - the sea disappears and there is one huge wasteland on both sides of the causeway. Of course, during the high tides, the causeway is completely under the water.

Still it is an amazing place...On the one end of the causeway there is this very modern Mumbai skyline, on the other end an ancient mosque, built in 1431. Pretty crazy. You can see the mosque view in the comments.

Geese pictures must be cliche for sure because even in my stream you can find more than a few. I am not even talking about the whole Flickerverse. These are our native North Carolinian geese who, I think, will be moving to Canada soon. Just to maintain some natural balance since all Canada Geese seem to relocate permanently to North Carolina...Yes, Canada, it's payback time!

HCS, you all!

It is pouring rain right now. It is 64 degrees at 7:00 in the morning. It is nuts.

So no snow fences for me...or anything resembling a winter fence even slightly.
Still, Happy Fence Friday, everyone!
