Post one favorite photo you took (max 1 per day) with some details.

Shed in the Mist.

Taken on the Atherton Tableland in Far North Queensland, Australia.
 

What year did that happen? Our worst experiences in Europe were in Paris. We are Canadian.
That particular trip was sometime between 1966 and 1968. The hotel incident was perhaps serendipitous as it got me out on the street that night to take some pictures. The newly restored (from a faded 35 mm slide) picture of the Sacre Coeur below is one of those night shots.

Of all the European cities I've been through, Paris is the only one where I had time to get out at night and take photos.
 
Family of Tawny Frogmouths.

Took a photo of these frogmouths at the end of a verandah in a holiday house we rented in the Town of 1770 in the Gladstone Region, Queensland, Australia.

Frogmouths are a group of nocturnal birds related to the nightjars. They are found from the Indian Subcontinent across Southeast Asia to Australia.

The small town of Seventeen Seventy (also written as 1770 or the Town of 1770) is built on the site of the second landing in Australia by James Cook and the crew of HM Bark Endeavour in May 1770 and their first landing in what is now the state of Queensland.
 
The Perfect Road: When people stereotype motorcyclists, they often think of scruffy, frowning guys dressed up like pirates riding noisy motorcycles down the road to somewhere, such as the next bar. There's more than a little truth to that; however, there is another class or rider whose riding preference isn't paved roads. To that end, those of us who're in that other group take a lot of pictures of our favorite, back roads. This is one of my favorites - a nearly perfect road for the kind of riding I like.

This is the near-perfect mixture of dirt, sand, mud and gravel you find on roads less traveled. You do, though, often have to travel on highways to get to these places.
