Site of 2 Forts that were important to early American history :
Fort Bowyer was constructed by the U.S. Army during 1813 to guard against possible British attack. This small log and sand fortification was attack twice by the British during the War of 1812. The first attack made by four British warships and a combine force of British Royal Marines and Creek Indians came on September 15, 1814. The ensuing battle was total American victory. One warship, the H.M.S. Hermes was sunk and the marines and Creek Indians were forced to withdraw. During a second battle which took place during early February 1815, a combine British land and naval force forced the vastly outnumbered American troops to surrender the fort. By the terms of the treaty that ended the War of 1812, the British had to return Fort Bowyer to the United States. Fort Bowyer defended Mobile Point until the early 1820's.
Fort Morgan was seized by troops of the State of Alabama on January 4, 1861. Turned over to the Confederate Army in March of 1861, the fort served as the first line of defense for the city of Mobile and provided protection for blockade runners entering Mobile Bay. On the morning of August 5, 1864, Union naval forces fought their way past the Fort Morgan and defeated a Confederate naval squadron which included the C.S.S. Tennessee, one of the most powerful ironclads constructed in the South during the war. Union land forces commenced siege operations against Fort Morgan on August 9th. On the morning of August 22nd, Union artillery began one of the most intense bombardments of a single fort recorded during the Civil War. The Confederate's losses were 17 men killed. The Confederate garrison's 581 men were forced to surrender the next morning.

In the pedestrian zone of Favoriten, the 10th district of Vienna. I live half a cigarette's smoke away from here and pass here at least once a day, when I go to work and take the underground. What I like best in the accordionist's repertoire is the Waltz No. 2 of Dmitri Shostakovich.
The Airco DH.2 was a single-seat biplane "pusher" aircraft which operated as a fighter during the First World War. It was the second pusher design by Geoffrey de Havilland for Airco, based on his earlier DH.1 two-seater. The DH.2 was the first effectively armed British single-seat fighter and enabled Royal Flying Corps (RFC) pilots to counter the "Fokker Scourge" that had given the Germans the advantage in the air in late 1915. Until the British developed an interrupter gear to match the German system, pushers such as the DH.2 and the F.E.2b carried the burden of fighting and escort duties.

At smaller apertures such as F8 one can get crisp images even at a distance of, say, 30 to 40 cm. Wide-open, however, the DoF is wafer thin and foreground and background will be thrown into blurriness. Sometimes, this creates a 'dreamy' effect one may even find attractive. F1.2; polariser.

Part of an interesting sculpture in Ljubljana.
(found in Ključavničarska Ulica; authored by Jakov Brdar).
This old-fashioned home is in Annapolis Royal. It's design, structure and colours are indicative of the area. Built in a time long ago, even the picket fence matches the colour in the framing.
"تعلّمــوا العطاء حتّى في ظروفكم الخانقة ،
تعلّموا كيف تهدون النّور لمن حولكم
وإن كانت خفاياكم حالكة. . جداً !
تعلّموا أن تهبوا لأحبابكم ابتسامة . . وإن كنتم تبكون !
ابذلوا ، فثواب العطاء سيمسح متاعبكم ،
ويخبئ لكم فرجاً من حيث لاتحتسبونْ . . ” ولأجر الآخرة أكبرْ ”
