A nice building in the Kurpark of Herrsching am Ammersee. This slightly castle-like villa was built in 1888 by painter Ludwig Scheuermann as a summer residence.

Entraunes, est une commune française située dans le département des Alpes-Maritimes, en région Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.
Entraunes, "gateway" to the Mercantour National Park, is a French commune located in the Alpes-Maritimes department, in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
Le lac de Montriond se trouve en Haute-Savoie sur la commune de Montriond, dans le Chablais français. Le lac est fréquenté par les pêcheurs et surtout par les promeneurs et randonneurs.
Le lac de Montriond est né suite à l'éboulement d'une partie de la montagne de Nantaux au Nord Ouest. Cet événement géologique non daté avec certitude (de 4500 ans à 3 ou 4 siècles !) a provoqué un barrage sur le torrent qui courait au fond de la vallée, d'où la formation du lac.
Lac de Montriond is located in the commune of Montriond in the French Chablais region of Haute-Savoie. The lake is popular with anglers and, above all, with walkers and hikers.
Lake Montriond was created when part of the Nantaux mountain to the north-west collapsed. This geological event, which has not been dated with any certainty (between 4,500 years and 3 or 4 centuries!), caused a dam to form on the torrent that ran along the bottom of the valley, hence the formation of the lake.
En Alfoz de Lloredo, en la frontera entre los pueblos de Cóbreces y Toñanes, esa frontera que crea el arroyo de la Presa, se esconde un lugar con mucho encanto.
Dicho arroyo desemboca en el mar Cantábrico creando una cascada de gran belleza, entre los acantilados.
Esto es el Molino del Bolao
Espero que esta escena y foto también sea de vuestro agrado

Toruń is one of most attractive and historic towns in Poland.
It is famous for being the birthplace ( in 1474 ) of the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus whose epochal book, De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium is universally regarded as the starting point of modern astronomy.
In 1997 the old medieval quarter of Toruń comprising the Old Town ( 1233 ), the New Town ( 1264 ) and the Teutonic Knights Castle ( mid 13th c. ) was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site for having preserved almost intact its original medieval street layout. Toruń is full of Gothic monuments of architecture, all built of brick, such as the Town Hall, The Leaning Tower, numerous churches and many burgher houses around the central market square and the surrounding streets.
If you ever are in Gdańsk on the coast, I recommend driving down to Toruń - it's only 2hrs away on the motorway - the place has a great artistic atmosphere and a lively cafe scene.
As you can probably tell I love these birds.
Thank you to all that take the time to comment and/or fav it is much appreciated.

Knaresborough Viaduct is a viaduct in the North Yorkshire town of Knaresborough, England. The viaduct carries the Harrogate line over the River Nidd in the town. The viaduct was supposed to have opened in 1848, but the first construction collapsed into the river very near to completion, which necessitated a new viaduct and delayed the opening of the line through Knaresborough by three years.
The viaduct can be seen striking across the Nidd Gorge from the ruins of Knaresborough Castle and is a well-known viewpoint in the town. The viaduct is now a grade II* listed structure.
Point Abino Lighthouse
Keeping a proud watch over Lake Erie, the Point Abino Lighthouse is one of the greatest of its kind in Canada.
Built in 1917-1918, the lighthouse and keeper’s dwelling are a local, provincial, and federal landmark with a unique history. This light station was one of 40 built during the last period of manned lighthouse construction.
Preservations want this 'keeper's dwelling' for the historic Point Abino Lighthouse kept in public hands.
At the end of Point Abino, a large rocky shelf projects into the lake making it necessary to build the lighthouse at a considerable distance from the shoreline. In stormy weather and at high-water periods, the lighthouse was inaccessible on foot. For that reason, the keeper’s dwelling required a site on the adjoining shore.
I'm driving home for Christmas
Oh, I can't wait to see those faces
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Well, I'm moving down that line
And it's been so long
But I will be there
I sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving in my car
It's gonna take some time but I'll get there
Top to toe in tailbacks
Oh, I got red lights all around
But soon there'll be a freeway, yeah
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
And feel you near me
Driving in my car
I'm driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I take look at the driver next to me
He's just the same
Just the same
Top to toe in tailbacks
Oh, I got red lights all around
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Get my feet on holy ground
So I sing for you
Though you can't hear me
When I get through
Oh and feel you near me
Driving in my car
With a thousand memories
I take look at the driver next to me
He's just the same
He's driving home, driving home

MYANMAR,Burma , am Rande des Inle-Sees, uriger buddhistischer Pagodenwald mit Grabmal-Stupas von Indein (Inthein,In-Dein).
Der Pagodenwald liegt westlich des Inle-Sees und ist über einen Kanal erreichbar. Die ältesten Grab-Stupas dieses Friedhofs stammen aus dem 17. Jahrhundert, aber auch heute noch werden neue Stupas gebaut. Immer mehr alte Monumente sind inzwischen renoviert, und so hat sich ein buntes Gemisch aus Gold, Stuck und nacktem, manchmal bewachsenem Backstein entwickelt.
MYANMAR, Burma, on the edge of Inle Lake, rustic Buddhist pagoda forest with tomb stupas from Indein (Inthein,In-Dein).
The pagoda forest is west of Inle Lake and can be reached via a canal. The oldest tomb stupas in this cemetery date back to the 17th century[1] but new stupas are still being built today. More and more old monuments have now been renovated, resulting in a colorful mix of gold, stucco and bare, sometimes overgrown brick.
You know I like to do sunrises, unfortunately there was not a decent one all the time I was in Iceland. This was the closest I got. I do like the range of blue tones tinted by the pinks.
From Wiki: Jvari Monastery is a sixth-century Georgian Orthodox monastery near Mtskheta, eastern Georgia. Along with other historic structures of Mtskheta, it is listed as a World Heritage site by UNESCO. Jvari is a rare case of the Early Medieval Georgian church that survived to the present day almost unchanged.
