Russian forces are using the city of Sumy as a testing ground for their “Italmas” drones, according to local journalists and radio electronics specialist Serhiy Beskrestnov. The Italmas, a simplified version of the Shahed-136, was used in a strike on the Sumy regional administration building on July 25. Initially deemed ineffective for military use, these drones are now being deployed by Russia purely to terrorize frontline cities and civilians, taking advantage of their limited range.

glacier terminus seen from a helicopter, Alaska circa 2010

#travel #photography #Alaska

in this wide landscape photo shot thru the windshield of a helicopter, a vast area can be seen where mountains rise in the distance, a huge black hillside peaks into the frame from the right corner, and the rough surface of a glacier is seen to the left, imposing on a green valley, that all sits next to a huge river on the left side. another small helicopter can be seen flying in the distance

Mendenhall Glacier is a popular tourist destination near Juneau, but each year there is less of it to see. Each year, hundreds of thousands of people visit Mendenhall Glacier—an easily accessible glacier near Juneau in Southeast Alaska.

@ai6yr

i looked for the tour, but that company seems to not be in business anymore.

i grabbed a couple other photos taken after the one i pposted originally, if this helps..

we passed by part of that glacier, then swung to the left to fly up over it, into the 'valley' and glacier beyond...

i think this first photo is taken after we made our 'left' then the next is over the glacier. not many good landmarks.

the vast surface of a glacier is seen, with mountains and a river beyond
the cracked and chiseled surface of a glacier can be seen, with huge snowcapped mountains looming in the distance

In the image, a large brown and white gorilla is sitting on the ground in front of a tree with vibrant pink flowers. The gorilla's hands are resting on its knees, as if in a relaxed state. The background features a green wall and the branches of the tree, creating a natural, tranquil setting for the gorilla.
In the image, a gorilla with a large nose and face can be seen resting its left arm on its right arm. The gorilla's fur is dark and matted, and it is looking directly at the camera. The background is a lush green forest, adding to the natural ambiance of the scene.
The image shows a gorilla laying on its side on a bed of grass. The gorilla's body is oriented towards the left side of the image, with its head resting on its front paws. Its eyes are open, giving the impression that it is in a relaxed and peaceful state. The grass beneath the gorilla appears to be lush and green.
The image depicts a majestic gorilla sitting comfortably in the lush greenery of a jungle. The gorilla is adorned with a large leaf in its left hand, adding a touch of nature to its surroundings. The gorilla, located in the center of the image, is facing towards the right side of the photo. Its fur appears to be a dark shade of grey, contrasting with the vibrant greens of the forest.
