The Zambezi River is the largest river in southeastern Africa.
The river originates in Zambia, then flows through Angola, along the border of Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe to Mozambique, where it flows into the Indian Ocean.
The most important landmark of the Zambezi is Victoria Falls, one of the greatest waterfalls in the world.

Italy, Cappella di San Galgano ( shot contre jour)

Alexander Prolygin has posted:

The son of a feudal lord, Galgano became a knight, and is said to have led a riotous life. But once, according to legend, an invisible angel lifted him to his feet and led him to the hill of Monte Siepi. In a vision, he saw a round temple on the hill, with Jesus and Mary surrounded by the Apostles. The angel urged him to repent his sins, but Galgano protested that he could no more do this than to split a rock with a sword. To prove his point, he drew his blade and thrust at the stony ground, but the sword slid easily into the living rock, where it remains stuck fast to this day.

The sarcophagus with the sword said to have been driven into a stone by Galgano is inside of this chapel

The Palazzo Comunale dates back to the late 13th century,. It was built on the ruins of an earlier building between 1289 and 1298.
In 1311, the Great Tower, which rises above the palace, was completed, becoming the tallest in the city. Construction began on August 21, 1300,, and was completed in 1311. Its height is 54 meters. At the moment, it is the only tower in the city accessible to visitors.
The Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Assunta is a Catholic collegiate church famous for its frescoes by Domenico Ghirlandaio, Benozzo Gozzoli, Taddeo di Bartolo, Lippo Memmi and Bartolo di Fredi. The basilica is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Historic Centre of San Gimignano".

As we still hear daily about the war in the Ukraine and the Gaza area we are reminded that lessons still have to be learned. Maybe some world political leaders should take a closer look at this!

I saw this on the start of an autumn colours walk starting at the local Saddleworth village of Greenfield.

Ein Spinnennetz in den Regenbogenfarben - A spider's web in the colours of the rainbow

Dieses Spinnennetz, das in der Morgensonne in den Regenbogenfarben leuchtend strahlte, fand ich kürzlich in einem fränkischen Städtchen. Die Farben sah man allerdings nur, wenn man in einem bestimmten Winkel beim Netz stand und in Richtung der Sonnen sah. Schon bei geringen Bewegungen nach links oder rechts ließen die Farben verschwinden. Dieses Phänomen kann durch Lichtbeugung erklärt werden, siehe Internetartikel.

I recently found this spider's web, which shone brightly in the rainbow colours in the morning sun, in a small Franconian town. However, you could only see the colours if you stood at a certain angle to the web and looked in the direction of the sun. Even slight movements to the left or right caused the colours to disappear. This phenomenon can be explained by light diffraction, see internet article.

Autumn can be exciting and most colourful. Here we see a capture of a small part of ‘Strid Wood’ in the Wharfedale Valley of the Yorkshire Dales taken a year or so back but just as relevant today.
