Good dating (and social history) in the posters outside this R.I.C. Barracks at Brookeborough in Co. Fermanagh.
A Department of Agriculture poster warns about Potato Blight and that "potatoes should be dug without delay". Can't read the last 3 lines (it's like an eye test), but it starts:
"Every Day the Crop now remains
in the ground ???
? the tubers turning "black"...
A little poster seems to be offering a £1 Reward for a Bull Calf (and while we're talking about animals, there's a spaniel? relaxing on the windowsill).
A poster between two of the constables is advertising militia training. Think the poster on the right is also for militia training and it looks as if Royal Innis... is the start of Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers? May be able to date this poster by S.G. Roe who signed the proclamation. Also God Save The King plus E.R. at the top means Edward VII was in power, so this one is definitely 1901-1910.
Date: 1901-1910

Thank (in advance) to you all, very much my friends!

Happy Slider Sunday - HSS!
Here’s an image of the city of my residence when it’s not flirting with the fog! ;o)
This was also the very last photo I took in 2012 on a very early and cold December morning. Looking back at my Seattle inventory alone, I took roughly 3,700 photos in 2012, almost exactly 100 less than the year before.
It’s odd.
For some reason, I feel this number is extremely low. (Note: My point may have been misunderstood by some -- I find the number 3,700 low for one year, not the difference of 100 images between 2011 and 2012). When I travel to a different city for my portfolio, I can take as many as 4,000 photos in much less than a week. Perhaps, it’s because Seattle is “home”, so I’m never in a rush compared to New York or San Francisco or Alaska where limited time is of the essence. I sleep a lot less when I’m on a photographic mission. It’s terrific!
Wishing you all a fabulous and enjoyable weekend in your relative locations around the planet!

This odd apparatus is on the roof of the old Packard facility. I figured it was now nothing more than a hunk of rusting, decaying metal. When I stepped in front of it, I was shocked at the force of the wind silently screaming from it's cavernous mouth. I quickly, like a ninja, grabbed the edges to keep from being blown off the building, where I most certainly would have plunged to my untimely death. My coat instantly shredded and disappeared (strange, huh?), and the rest of my gear started to blow away, as you see clearly in the picture.
I barely escaped with my life!
Can you imagine how cool this would have looked if I had long flowing hair? Or even hair at all?
Thank you Ray, Ed, and Lou for saving my life by grabbing me and pulling me to safety.
Day 283
If you have nothing better to do with your time, you could always follow my photography on Facebook.

Peñíscola, muy frecuentada por mí en el pasado, quiso obsequiarme para darme la bienvenida con su calidez, su luz y sus colores maravillosos. El atardecer de tonalidades muy suaves, y el amanecer de colores intensos y brillantes. ¡Todo un privilegio, pura magia!

Peñíscola, frequented by me in the past, obsequiarme wanted to welcome me with its warmth, its light and wonderful colors. The very soft sunset hues, and the dawn of intense and bright colors. A privilege, pure magic!
Verbier is a ski resort in the Swiss Alps, in the canton of Valais. It is part of the "Four Valleys" ski area, which includes the ski resorts of Verbier, Nendaz, Veysonnaz, La Tzoumaz, and Thyon. Verbier is recognized as one of the premiere "off-piste" resorts worldwide. Many top skiers have settled in the resort in order to take advantage of the steep slopes, varied conditions and vibrant nightlife. Verbier is also a popular holiday destination for celebrities, including Sarah Ferguson, Diana Ross, James Blunt and The Crown Prince Couple of Denmark: Frederik and Mary.
Verbier is located in the Val de Bagnes, in the Valais region of Switzerland. The resort lies on a south orientated terrace at around 1,500 metres facing the Grand Combin massif.
Verbier only has one access road, which starts in the town of Le Châble.
The Grand Combin is a mountain in the western Pennine Alps in Switzerland. With its 4,314 metres (14,154 ft) high summit it is one of the highest peaks in the Alps and the second most prominent of its range.
The Grand Combin is also a large glaciated massif consisting of several summits, among which three are above 4000 metres.
The Alps (French: Alpes; German: Alpen; Italian: Alpi; Romansh: Alps; Slovene: Alpe) is the name for one of the great mountain range systems of Europe, stretching from Austria and Slovenia in the east, through Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Germany to France in the west. The word "Alps" was taken via French from Latin Alpes (meaning "the Alps"), which may be influenced by the Latin words albus (white) or altus (high) or more likely a Latin rendering of a Celtic or Ligurian original.
The highest mountain in the Alps is Mont Blanc, at 4,808 metres (15,774 ft), on the Italian-French border. All the main peaks of the Alps can be found in the list of mountains of the Alps and list of Alpine peaks by prominence.
The Alps are generally divided into the Western Alps and the Eastern Alps. The division is along the line between Lake Constance and Lake Como, following the Rhine. The Western Alps are higher, but their central chain is shorter and curved; they are located in Italy, France and Switzerland. The Eastern Alps (main ridge system elongated and broad) belong to Austria, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Slovenia and Switzerland.
The Alps are a classic example of what happens when a temperate area at lower altitude gives way to higher elevation terrain. Elevations around the world which have cold climates similar to those found in polar areas have been called alpine. A rise from sea level into the upper regions of the atmosphere causes the temperature to decrease. The effect of mountain chains on prevailing winds is to carry warm air belonging to the lower region into an upper zone, where it expands in volume at the cost of a proportionate loss of heat, often accompanied by the precipitation of moisture in the form of snow or rain.

Peñíscola se sitúa en un tómbolo, una península rocosa, en origen unida a tierra solamente por un istmo de arena, que hacía fácil su defensa, aunque ocasionalmente se inundaba y quedaba sepultado bajo el agua del mar. Actualmente, debido a la construcción del puerto y de los edificios en el istmo, este curioso hecho ha desaparecido. Sobre la peña se levanta su casco viejo, del que sobresale el castillo del Papa Luna, dividiendo la costa de Peñíscola en dos mitades absolutamente diferentes. Dispone de amplias playas tanto al norte como al sur de la península del castillo. El término municipal de Peñíscola incluye una de las sierras litorales más vírgenes de la costa valenciana, la Sierra de Irta, que acaba en el mar en una costa rocosa baja y en algunos puntos, de altos acantilados, como el de la Badum. La sierra ocupa las dos terceras partes meridionales del término de 81 km². La parte septentrional es una pequeña llanura aluvial que comparte con Benicarló y que llega desde el mar hasta las cimas del Puig. es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pe%C3%B1%C3%ADscola
----------------------
Peñíscola is situated on an isthmus, a rocky peninsula, originally joined to the mainland only by a sandy isthmus, which made it easy to defend, but occasionally flooded and was buried under the sea water. Currently, due to the construction of the harbor and the buildings on the isthmus, this curious fact has gone. On the rock stands the old town, which stands the castle of Papa Luna, Peñíscola dividing the coast into two halves quite different. It has wide beaches both north and south of the peninsula of the castle. The municipality of Peñíscola includes one of the most pristine coastal mountains of the Valencian coast, the Sierra de Irta, which ends in the sea on a rocky coast and some low points, high cliffs, like the Badum. The mountain occupies the southern two-thirds of the term of 81 km ². The northern part is a small floodplain shared with Benicarló and reaches from the sea to the peaks of Puig. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peniscola
Another classic winter postcard view on Turku Cathedral and Aura river. I think the man walking in the river makes it bit more interesting.

I was going to use this image for #20 Guess What, but went with the pine cone macro instead. Can you guess what this is, my Flickr friends? My intuition says it's easier to identify than the cone was!
A puzzle? A game? Abstract? Accumulating colors? Heart shapes? What cliches! :D
Slippin' and slidin' into Sunday!
Many thanks for every kind comment, fave, your words of encouragement, and the inspiration of your fine photography,
my friends! You make my day every day!
Che questa mia canzone .... arrivi a te
ti porterà dove niente e nessuno l'ascolterà
la canterò con poca voce... sussurrandotela
e arriverà prima che tu......ti addormenterai....
..................................
sognami se nevica
sognami sono nuvola
sono vento e nostalgia
sono dove vai............

চারিদিকে শীত। এই প্রচণ্ড শীতের একটি ভোঁরে, একটি ফুল, শিশিরে সিক্ত। সেই সৌন্দর্য আসলেও মন ছুয়ে যাওয়ার মত!
Its winter everywhere. In this cold winter, one dawn, I saw a flower, dewdrops allover, and totally wet. What a beauty it was itself!
