The architectural theme in these three photographs today culminates in this impressive University of Tasmania apartment block. It sits right alongside the community gardens I have mentioned in my previous photographs. The university describes the unique process of construction employed by local architect and building firms:
"The Inveresk apartments are Tasmania's first prefabricated timber-framed multi-storey residential development, combining prefabricated, lightweight timber framing with structural cross-laminated timber (CLT) in favour of traditional concrete and steel. The building was designed by local firms Morrison and Breytenbach and Circa Morris-Nunn Architects, with technical expertise from the University's Centre for Sustainable Architecture with Wood and the team's structural engineers."

▶ "Magnolia stellata, sometimes called the star magnolia, is a slow-growing shrub or small tree native to Japan. It bears large, showy white or pink flowers in early spring, before its leaves open. [...] This shrub grows 1.5 to 2.5 metres (5 to 8 ft) in height, spreading to 4.6 m (15 ft) in width at maturity. [...] After it was introduced to the United States in 1862 by Dr. George Robert Hall (1820-1899), Magnolia stellata has been widely cultivated in much of North America, and has been recorded as an established escape in a few places."

Transocean Tours was a German company established in 1954 which operated cruises primarily in the German and British markets. It later became part of British based Cruise and Maritime Voyages.
In later years Transocean's principal ships were ASTOR and ASTORIA. Cruise and Maritime Voyages along with subsidiary Transocean Tours became insolvent during the Covid Pandemic and filed for insolvancy on July 20, 2020.
MS ASTORIA was a cruise ship of about 18,700 GT that was built in Germany by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft as the ASTOR in 1981. After short unsuccessful operations with two owners, she was bought by the East German government in 1985 and renamed ARKONA.
After 1990 the ship was operated by Seetours, which was acquired by P&O Princess Cruises in 1999, and then chartered to Transocean Tours as ASTORIA in 2002.
From 2009 until 2019 she was owned by Saga Cruises as SAGA PEARL II (and for a short period as QUEST FOR ADVENTURE), then withdrawn from service, laid up as Pearl II, and scrapped in 2022.
MS ASTOR was a cruise ship that most recently sailed for Cruise & Maritime Voyages' Transocean Cruises subsidiary, under which she operated voyages to Europe, South Africa, and Australia.
The ship was originally built in 1987 under the name ASTOR by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft (HDW), Kiel in West Germany for the Mauritius-based Marlan Corporation, although originally ordered by the South African Safmarine as a combined ocean liner/cruise ship for the Southampton-Cape Town service.
In 1988, she was sold to the Soviet Union-based Black Sea Shipping Company and renamed Fedor Dostoevskiy (some sources spell the name Fedor Dostoyevskiy, Russian: Фёдор Достое́вский), but spent her time under charter to various West German cruise lines.
In 1995, she reverted to the name, ASTOR. From 1996 until 2020, she operated under charter to Transocean Tours.
After Transocean Cruises' parent company, Cruise & Maritime Voyages, entered administration in 2020, Astor was sold at auction by C.W. Kellock London Ltd. on 15 October 2020 for US$1,710,000.
She was beached in Aliaga, Turkey, on 23 November 2020 for scrap. Scrapping started four days later and was completed by 30 March 2021.

For "Scenic Sunday", we find ourselves alongside a portion of the Cheyenne River, which moves water for 290 miles or so from the Thunder River Basin in Wyoming to the Missouri River. After making it's descent down Wall Hill, westbound freight #M-HCRU is enjoying a bit of scenery as they follow the Cheyenne River for a few miles. With four nice looking motors, the train has plenty of power for this section of track, and is likely being used to reposition a unit (or two) to Rapid City.
Alongside the hawthorn in memory of Clare, Ray has now planted a spindle tree in our front garden We were surprised and happy that the hawthorn gave deep pink blossom in May in its first season with us. And now the spindle tree is amazingly already decked with bright pink berries in July. **
The pink blossom and berries of these two trees have been chosen in reference to Clare's silversmithing enterprise, Rose Madder, which meant so very much to her and from which I have so many beautiful pieces.
** I checked it out online:
Spindle fruits are perhaps the most unusual of all our native trees and shrubs. They consist of green 'capsules' that become bright pink when they are ripe in September and October
thank you for all your visits

One of New Jersey’s most picturesque and photographed locations is located in western New Jersey alongside the Raritan River in the town of Clinton is a grist mill referred to as the ‘Red Mill’. When Ralph Hunt built this mill in 1810 on land he received in inheritance from his father Daniel Hunt its original purpose was that of a wool processing plant. Unfortunately, foreign cloth was relatively low cost so eventually even though some of the surrounding farmers would get their wool manufactured, Hunt’s business dried up and the mill came to a grinding halt. It was around 1828 to 1834 that John Bray and John B. Taylor (the Taylor family had taken ownership of the property began production wool in the mill again. The new owner John W. Snyder stopped the wool processing altogether and converted the mill in to a grist mill. Before all production stopped, it was a graphite mill and finally a talc mill when all activity stopped. Today it is a museum and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Captured this image while with my west coast damsel, returning from a wonderous weekend in Lehigh Valley Pennsylvania. I particularly like the distorted reflection of the mill in water just before it cascades on the dam. #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @kehcamera @mpbcom @visitclintonnj @newjerseyisntboring @newjerseyisbeautiful #newjerseyisntboring #newjerseyisbeautiful @visit_nj #omd #olympus #microfourthirds #micro43 #micro43photography
By this time, only Lee and I were still here, in the company of our new friend Brian, who for avoidance of doubt among regular readers was not the same Brian who accompanied us on our previous visit to Iceland. This Brian was a human being rather than a yellow VW campervan, touring the area on a five night visit from Chicago. Somehow, and despite having a young family at home, he’d been given clearance by mission control to fly to Iceland and spend a few days alone taking photographs. When my children were the same age as his were now, I could barely make it down to the shop at the end of the road to pick up a pint of milk without company, never mind climb aboard a plane bound for somewhere across the Atlantic Ocean. And here he was, sitting alongside us on this far flung Icelandic beach. The crowds had long since departed - not that you really get crowds at Hvalnes, hidden away from the madding hordes as it is. Last time we’d been here, three years earlier on that gloomy grey morning, we hadn’t seen a single soul as the rain endlessly coated our cameras and foiled our intentions, whilst hiding the landscape in featureless clouds.
Now as autumn kicked in, things were rather different. We’d been here since the middle of the afternoon, absorbing the views, wandering over the beach and the headland by the squat, square orange lighthouse, planning compositions. The shot I’d come for three summers earlier was hopefully somewhere on the SD card, and there was a general feeling of contentment. Despite the increased number of visitors in comparison to last time, it was still very peaceful here. Eystrahorn had put right the wrongs of 2019 when moodily I’d perched on the slippery rocks, barely removing the protective plastic sandwich bag from the camera as it sat unused on the tripod. Everything was visible, from the emphatic bulk of Eystrahorn rising at our side, a symphony of bumps, crags and ridges adorned with heavy skirts of scree, to the distant Brunnhorn that sits back to back against its neighbour Vestrahorn. In between lay a hinterland of forbidding mountains that cloaked the monstrous Vatnajokull glacier, and before them, volleys of white surf danced across a narrow spit of black sand that stretched away beside the huge tidal lagoon into the distance and out of sight. Elemental joy, in whichever direction you chose to look.
There are no cities, towns, nor even villages here - you’d need to drive more than thirty miles in one direction before finding yourself at Djúpivogur, nestling among the south eastern fjords, home to five hundred hardy Icelanders. If instead you decide to head west, you’d travel pretty much the same distance to arrive at Höfn, a veritable metropolis in these parts with almost two and a half thousand inhabitants. Apart from that, there are farms, the odd shepherd’s hut, and an ever increasing number of cabins and bunkhouses to accommodate us tourists. All other compass points lead into the vast ocean or the mostly impenetrable mountains at the edge of the largest glacier in Europe. It’s a long way to go if you forgot to pick up that pint of milk, that’s for sure. You’d have to go and knock on a farmhouse door carrying an empty jug, unless you like your coffee black.
With all of that grand vista spreading away in front of us, the long lens offered possibilities beyond the capabilities of its companions in the bag, and in the golden hour it came into its own, especially in these unforgettable minutes when the pinks began to fill the sky, while the golds continued to linger. On the darkening sand, maybe half a mile away, a small group of visitors roamed the shore, taking selfies, playing beach games, gazing out towards the sea, totally oblivious to the three photographers lurking on those distant rocks. A rare moment when the colours of the golden and blue hours seemed to overlap one another and produce a sky that glowed with heavenly fire, drawing a frenzy of shutters rapidly opening and closing. These are the moments that stay with you, a timeless reminder of why you fell in love with landscape photography. A reminder of why a place like this gets inside of your senses and never leaves.
Our first full day in the southeastern corner had been a good one. We said farewell as Brian headed east to Djúpivogur, while we went the opposite way towards our rented chalet at Stafafell. And little did we know that just a few hours later we’d be out of bed, taking photographs of the Northern Lights. But that’s another story. And another unforgettable one at that too. Iceland keeps on making the stories write themselves.
Alongside the Long Water of Hampton Court, an avenue of lime trees was planted in the 1660s by King Charles II as a gift to his new bride, Catherine of Braganza. A major conservation and restoration project to reinstate the historic vista of the Long Water Avenue was completed in May 2004 when HRH The Prince of Wales planted the last of 544 new lime trees that once again flank the central canal as Charles II would have known it.
VIA 65 has just left Central Station as it approaches the out of use Wellington Tower. At left is the right of way and catenary for the not yet open REM light rail project. To say this scene has changed a lot recently would be quite an understatement.

150264 runs alongside the Taff Rhondda just outside Porth with the 1344 Treherbert to Cardiff Central service.
This view shows todays typical landscape of the lower Rhondda Valley. The river, the railway and the main road occupy centre stage on the valley floor, with housing and light industry surrounding.
The main valley (the Rhondda Fawr) continues straight ahead from the camera, with the community of Tonypandy visible. The river, road and railway continue to the right up to Treherbert.
Absent from this view are any obvious signs of coal mining. Between 1860 and 1939 the Rhondda Valleys were one of the worlds most important coal mining regions. At the start of the 20th century, there were over 70 mines or drifts in the valley. The last mine to close in the Rhondda valleys was Maerdy, which ceased raising coal in the Rhondda in 1986, after which coal was raised at Tower Colliery, over the mountain near Hirwaun.
The Rhondda, like most of the rivers in the Cardiff valleys was heavily polluted from coal mining. With the passing of the coal industry, today trout and even salmon have made a remarkable return to the river.
