Monte Leon and Ayagaures Dam
Posted on Nov 21, 2005 | Categories: Photography | 1 Comment
Last week I shared a number of different pictures from Little Venice and Monte Leon and I thought this week I would finish off with the series by sharing with you some of my final series of favourite pictures from Monte Leon and then introducing some other pictures from one of the most impressive dams of Gran Canaria: Presa de Ayagaures.
As you will be able to see some of those pictures are really spectacular specially if you come to think that not far from there, about 20 minute drive you would be laying on the beach enjoying the sunshine. I have shared these and a few more pictures over in my Flickr account if you would want to have a quick look, but just to give you an idea here you have got four of my favourites:

Oh, and if you are looking for a nice tool that would allow you to display Flickr pictures (Rather your own, your groups or the entire system itself) you may want to have a look at the neat Flickr Screensaver tool that would allow you to configure some basic settings and then get all those lovely pictures directly into your desktop. Worth while a look if you are looking for a refreshing way of keeping your screensaver(s) up to date with some of the most impressive pictures out there !

Fancy Some New Weblogging Playground ? – WordPress.com Is Open for Business
If you remember, from the very first beginning of elsua, I mentioned in the first weblog post how I was using for the last few months a hosted weblog over at Blogsome to have a look and try things for a little while before I would jump into creating, maintaining my own Internet weblog. And for over seven months I was quite happy with giving it a try and share some content to the point where in the end I decided to dive in in full force and then elsua was born.
You would probably remember how Blogsome is using one of my favourite weblogging platforms: WordPress, which is also eventually the same platform I am using for this weblog. Well, things are going to get ever so much more interesting because WordPress.com has just announced that their weblogging offering is now available to all and I bet they will present lots of good competition to other popular weblog engines.
I must say that I am really glad I actually tried out WordPress with Blogsome because it helped me take a much better decision and stick around with it for my own hosted weblog over here. And I bet that WordPress.com is going to have the same effect, specially for those folks out there new to weblogging.
Thus congrats to WordPress.com and keep up the good work !
