I'm still learning all of this myself so I use google lens quite a bit still. But getting more familiar with the butterfly species in particular. One more on the way before I have to head out to meet a friend!

@MissMonroe I also have selection of mushrooms lol if you're into that! One even looks like a smiley face. But that's for another time x
It took me some time to snap this mega fast butterfly that moves like a humming bird, hence the name Humming-bird Hawk-moth.

What a great photo! Yes they are seriously quick. The name is very apt! You did well to get any sort of clarity at all, love it x
I have recently been loaned a camera thats far above my skill levels, still figuring it all.out. Hopefully it'll lead to some good pics to share here! Meantime, that mushroom I promised is on the way...

Common puffball. The holes and markings make it look like a slightly melancholy face with a lil tear rolling down the cheek

The water is calm and the light is beautiful. It seems like a wonderful place to walk. Are that islands in the distance?I'll try again...

Its another peninsula, the coastline is very jagged with lots of points and inlets. It was a gorgeous walk, although I was a bit nervous near the sheer drop where I took the photo lol
The hanging kitchens in the town of Appingedam, Netherlands, are the result of a change in building purpose. Previously, warehouses stood here, but zoning plans changed, and the warehouses became residential. However, the warehouses were so narrow that residents didn't have room for a kitchen. They solved the problem like this:

Interior view of the roof of the Pantheon in Rome. Still the largest unsupported domed roof in the world I believe, and it's over 2000 years old.
It is an impressive building. The columns of the outside portico are monoliths carved from Egyptian granodiorite, a stone similar to granite, which was quarried at Mons Claudianus in Egypt. The hardness of granodiorate (6-7 Mohs scale) makes it impossible to carve such impeckable columns with nothing more than chisles. I know because I have tried myself.

I love the light in this photo. It gives an angelic feel to it.
