Last Notes npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro We had an amazing encounter with a Bearded vulture (Lammergeier) yesterday in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Of course I had the small point & press camera rather than my usual birding lens and camera. The sky was awful for bird photography. But what mattered was the encounter. It's always so special when an unexpected wildlife encounter happens. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro All of a sudden its looking very white and not at all like southern Spain 🤣 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro A visit back to middle England for me this week. It's nice to see friends and family but I don't enjoy the crowds, costs and stresses, which are somewhat alien to me living in rural Spain. What England does have though is an interesting, beautiful and historical network of canal waterways. A heritage from its industrial past. Here's a couple of shots from a short walk I did today. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Photos from the Tabernas desert badlands hike I did a few days ago. The whole area is a a chaotic mass of broken rock and battered, crumbling cliffs npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro A strange thing to come across yesterday whilst hiking in the Tabernas desert badlands of Almeria! Any idea what this was and why it was here? 🤣 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Today I hiked in a place close to my heart and stood in the exact same footsteps as Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach in "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly". This view never fails to stir the senses, I love it here. Tabernas Desert, Almeria, #Spain. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro A very welcome cool 15c on today dog walk. Very autumnal but stunning in the morning light. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Patagonia Image 4 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Good morning all. Some strong winds overnight meant a stunning sunrise here in Lanjaron this morning. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Patagonia Image 3 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The Southern Patagonia Ice Field is the largest expanse of ice outside the polar regions. It extends southwards for approximately 350 kilometres (220 miles). In places it is up to 80km (50 miles) wide. This ice mass feeds dozens of glaciers feeding into both Chile and Argentina. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro After being inspired yesterday by Colin Haley's exploits in Patagonia I went back through some of the photos from our own efforts of the Southern Patagonian Icecap over the years. Admittedly, they are nowhere near as vertical as his 🤣 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Colin Haley climbing the Supercaneleta on Mount Fitzroy (Chalten). This guy is amazing and this self shot record of his ascent shows the commitment, skill and dedication required for winter mountaineering in Patagonia, nevermind a extremely tough route such as this in the middle of winter. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro View from the morning dog walk. Beautiful colors as the early morning sun hits the landscape. Looking down through the olive groves to the Rules dam. Beyond the Mediterranean. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Gm. Beautiful colors npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro That's a worrying development. Wonder how that affects the spin offs .... Librewolf, Mull, Waterfox etc etc npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro A day scrambling on the wonderful peak of Peñon de la Mata north of Granada. The summit is surrounded by cliffs with only one hiking route to the top. Lots of possibilities for exploration. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Beautiful evening sunset tonight npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Good morning Nostr, from a bright and sunny Lanjaron in southern Spain. Hope you all have a great week. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Igualmente npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The first overnight rains for a few months last night. I love the freshness after autumn rains. Cloudy today but a break in the clouds allowing the sun to shine down on the town of Lanjaron in the Alpujarras. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro River walking with a lovely group of people from Norway today. Inside the dense, lush foliage the air was cool, was even colder in the waterfall! 😂 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The Cerro Huenes group is in the Cumbres Verdes range west of the Sierra Nevada. The start is just 15 minutes drive south from the Granada ring road. The route provides pleasant hiking on generally good trails over numerous mountains, returning through forested hillsides to the start npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Our group on top of the strangely named "Pico de la Carne" in the Cumbre Verdes range of hills south of Granada. It may be only 1806 meters altitude but what it lacks in height it more than makes up for it by rugged terrain and glorious views. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Just an incredible amount of snowfall throughout central Europe. This report from Austria. Unprecedented levels of snowfall for September. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Post npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Atmospheric. Only been there once. When I was 13, a long long time ago. Guess it's not changed much apart from the amount of visitors! npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro nearly made me spill my coffee 🤮🤣 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Bit warm to be walking below 2000 meters but the cool breeze and forest foliage helped. Today we did a walk in the Sierra de Huetor, combining the Cañada del Senero with an off piste ascent of Cerro del Corza 1606m. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Lots of very happy and colorful people enjoying the great outdoors! A good turnout from our weekly walking group yesterday. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Primal on desktop. Primal and Amethyst on Android npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro welcome from another noob npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Views from the morning dog walk. Have a great week y'all. Lanjaron, Alpujarras. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Quite a lot of the TV series KAOS was filmed near me in Andalucia. Sevilla (Military Historical Museum) and Málaga areas primarily but also in one of my favourite hiking destinations, the Tavernas desert badlands of Almeria. The "Cave" nightclub in the series is in fact the old restaurant by the Tavernas exit of the A92 motorway turnoff. This place has also been used to film the "Black Museum" episode of the Black Mirror TV series. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro I really enjoyed watching the KAOS TV series, a dark comedy and modern take on Greek mythology. Actually made me want to take a peek into Greek mythology as I never covered it during my educational years, many many years ago npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Today's pick from the garden. Think some hot and spicy sriracha sauce might be coming up npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Welcome James. I'm a bit of a noob too but am enjoying my experience here. A breathe of fresh air npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro good morning. Have a great day npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Short (3 min) video I put together showing our 2 day backpacking hike up Alcazaba 3369m in Spain's Sierra Nevada mountains. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Good morning to you. Have a great weekend off npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro I'm really beginning to enjoy my experience on #Nostr. Such a liberating feeling. Many thanks to all the developers working on relays/clients npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The Mighty Alcazaba npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The Torrente de Paréis gorge in Mallorca is so dangerous after heavy rainfall. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Even though I live only 30 minutes drive from a nice beach and coastal town, I don't even remotely consider myself a beach bum. Maybe I'll visit once a year if that. Today was a mango salad washed down by a cold beer at a local "chiringito". Ah well, see you next year perhaps? npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro The hike into the valley of the "Siete Lagunas" a couple of days ago involved passing two small hidden lakes, rarely visited by other humans. Laguna Prado Negro and another further north which doesn't have a name. It should, it's stunning! The wonderful wild side of the Sierra Nevada that few others get to see. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Arrival of the sun at Laguna Borreguil, Siete Lagunas in Spain's Sierra Nevada mountain range this morning npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro I'll start by trying it out on a container on my NAS. Thanks for your advice npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro great. I like the idea of running your own relays too. Have you done this by VPS server? npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro wonderful. Thank you very much 🙏 npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Just popped up in some memories somewhere, 2013 and we are in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, capital city of Kamchatka taking a day off from the freezing cold (-30!) mountains to enjoy the warmth of city life. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Bit of a noob question here, but if I wanted to embed my #Nostr notes into my personal website is there a simple way I can pull off/download my notes into a json file? npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro definitely yes npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Beautiful morning today. Standing on the summit of Cerro los Machos (3329m) a few moments ago. In the background the peaks of Mulhacen and Alcazaba npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Trying out Lightroom online via web browser and mobile.

Rawtherapee and Darktable being my software for photo edits. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Very atmospheric npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Definite autumnal feel to the morning dog walk. Lovely colors, especially when the first rays of the sun hit the hillsides. Cooler with a slight breeze. Maybe end of the early morning/pre sunrise start of summer dog walking? npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Thank you, you are very kind npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro I'm going back to the Dolomites for a week at the end of September as I feel there is some unfinished business. This time, instead of just trekking, we are aiming to do 6 high level Via Ferrata routes in the Sella/San Martino mountain range in 5 days. Will use two refuges as a base. Really looking forward to it. npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Cracking light show last night. We even had some drops of rain! Lanjaron, Andalucia npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro Today's pick from the garden. Think some hot and spicy sriracha sauce might be coming up npub19l4e0mwjg45uj4dq5x06esatvy65qq8xgku4yfscz43x67j3jpmsvudv2s elperronegro I use an orthopaedic back support which helps me into the correct posture.

My first post shows an image taken last night of the town where I live in southern Spain, Lanjarón. Storm clouds are building at sunset and hopefully bringing much needed rain to our region
