For >30 years, the world’s largest #iceberg was stuck in the Antarctic. 5X the size of NYC’s land area & >1k feet deep, the mammoth piece of ice became loose in 2020 & began a slow drift toward the #SouthernOcean.

Now, #A23a, as it’s known, is spinning in place.
After leaving #Antarctic waters, the iceberg got stuck in a #vortex over a seamount….

The most extreme rogue wave occurred in November 2020, lifting a single buoy off of Canada's British Columbia coast some 58 feet high. Since then, dozens more rogue waves have been recorded (some even in lakes). @ScienceAlert has more on this aquatic phenomenon that was once considered a myth. And if buoys could talk, the one that went for a wild ride would tell you how very real rogue waves are: https://flip.it/AILAJv

This is a tranquil and atmospheric seascape photograph taken at sunset. The lower half of the image shows a wide, calm ocean that stretches all the way to the horizon. The water is dark blue with gentle ripples and catches a warm, glowing reflection of the setting sun — a bright orange-gold path of light that leads from the horizon directly toward the viewer across the surface of the sea. On the horizon line, slightly to the right of center, sits a small, bright white-orange sun just above the water. Around the sun, the sky glows with warm colors: vivid orange and golden yellow that gradually fade upward into soft pink, lavender, and finally into deep indigo and dark blue at the top of the image. The sky is filled with dramatic, layered clouds. Some clouds are dark and heavy, especially in the upper part of the frame, creating strong contrast. Others are illuminated from below by the sunset, showing softer edges with shades of purple, gray, and orange. The clouds give the sky a rich, textured, and moody feeling. Overall, the photograph has a peaceful yet dramatic mood — the vastness of the ocean meeting a colorful, cloudy sky at the moment of sunset.

Today’s small moment - loved our time in Melbourne, Florida over 10 years ago. I loved going down to the beach with my camera, especially at sunrise.

One morning, as I was standing there enjoying the waves of the Atlantic Ocean, a guy drove up in his work truck (utilities). There weren’t any power lines around, so I wondered what he was doing.

He got out of the truck and went to the edge of the beach and just stood there, looking out over the ocean. About five minutes later, he got back into his truck and drove away. What a fabulous way to start (or end) your work day, or any day!

Stunning Algarve view showcases cliffs shaped by time, rising boldly over the turquoise Atlantic. Jagged rock formations, rich in earthy tones, contrast beautifully with the soft blues of the sky and sea. Agave plants frame the scene, their spiky leaves guiding the eye toward the shimmering horizon. Soft clouds drifting overhead, it captures the Algarve’s essence.

This scene along the Algarve coast in Portugal feels expansive and serene. Imagine standing on the edge of a rugged cliff, where jagged rock faces drop steeply toward the vast Atlantic Ocean. The air smells fresh with a hint of salt. The rocks underfoot are warm, with rough, uneven textures, and agave plants with broad, pointed leaves grow nearby, their tips sharp to the touch. The ocean below stretches endlessly, its surface shifting gently with ripples. Above, the sky is open, with soft clouds scattered like cotton, filtering sunlight across the landscape. It’s a place where rugged earth meets calm, flowing water, evoking a sense of peace and awe.

Nature is a befuddling combination of regularity (high tide, then low tide, then high tide again) and what seems to be random weather catastrophes (tsunamis, earthquakes).

She's not tame or boring. But she also is not actuated by greed, so though she may be unexpected in her actions, she is not evil.

Sea grass: it looks soft, but it's got an edge to it, so much so that I've never had a temptation to lie down in the midst of it.

But I do so enjoy hiking up and down the sand dunes, picking my way through the clumps of grass, listening to the distant surf, and looking far, far out to where sky and ocean meet.

This is really cool! Last year I read William Dalrymple's "The Golden Road" and central to its narrative are these trade routes. This was an experiment to reconstruct a lost 5th century CE ship design based on drawing in the Ajanta Caves. According to Dalrymple, images in the Ajanta Caves provide some of the best info for the period.

Elder Shore
The sea moves endlessly, reshaping itself with every breath, while the rocks remain. Just before sunset, light softens the water into silk, revealing a balance between calm and motion.

A rugged coastal scene at golden hour. Dark, weathered rock formations frame the image on both sides, forming a natural corridor toward the open sea. Long-exposure water flows silkily around the rocks, turning the waves into soft, milky streams that contrast with the sharp, textured stone. The ocean beyond is restless but controlled, while the sky glows with warm pastel tones - peach, gold, and pale blue, layered with gentle clouds, suggesting either sunrise or sunset. The overall balance is between power and calm, permanence and motion.

We have a tendency to worship cool, canny, cunning, and clever as attributes to be admired and emulated in our society.

Innocence, we feel, is naive and dumb.

But a world filled with cool, canny, cunning and clever people isn't a beautiful one, and in order to survive in it, innocence has to be wise and strong.

What are we to believe, in a world in which we are told so many, many lies?

I start by finding some small thing that I know to be true, some element of beauty or goodness that is so right, so precious, that there is no ugliness or deceit in it.

And I build upon that.

"What a view!" I thought.

I felt as if I had purchased tickets to the balcony, where I watched the show and heard the symphony. Light touched both the surface of the cliff and the foam of the surf, a timeless pageant of majesty that intoxicated without any need for wine.
