  • The southern African Bearded Vulture (Gypaetus barbatus) - or Lammergeyer - is currently endangered and likely to become extinct.  Originally common throughout Lesotho, the Free State, Eastern Cape Province and KwaZulu-Natal (along the Maloti-Drakensberg mountains), the Bearded Vulture now only breeds and forages across a fraction of its original range. Current (2011) population estimates are in the region of 100 breeding pairs, down from over 200 pairs 25 years ago.  Here, this rarely-seen vulture-like eagle of Africa catches the sun's first rays while the grassy slopes of the high Drakensberg remain in deep shadow.  Ukhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.  Nikon F601, 50-135/3.5. Fuji RD. Autumn 1993.

  • Close-up detail of oxidation and rust pitting on a cannon barrel at Fuengirola Castle or Sohail Castle.  The orange is caused by the oxidation of the iron (rust), while the blue is the reflection of a clear blue sky.  Castillo de Sohail was a 10th century Arab castle accupied by the Moors and later conquered and ruined by the Christian Monarchs in 1485.  Rebuilt by the French during the Peninsular War, and successfully defended from a British-Spanish force at the Battle of Fuengirola, 1810 by a band of 200 Polish soldiers.  Castle renovated in 1995.
