Newburgh is a large stone-built village on the wide sandy estuary of the River Ythan, close to the point at which it is bridged by the A975. he origins of the village date back to 1261 when a charter was drawn up by Lord Sinclair establishing a settlement here. A little later it acquired the Chapel of the Holy Rood and St Thomas the Martyr in Inch Road. The Chapel is long gone, but the Udny Family Mausoleum which formed part of it can still be seen in the Holyrood Cemetery. art of the name of the original chapel also survives, in the imposing Holyrood Chapel on Main Street. This was originally built as a school in 1838, and the clock tower was added in 1892. The village itself developed as a centre for salmon fishing, and later as a small port. By the 1850s there was a steady traffic of boats and barges calling at the newly built quays on the River Ythan. And by the 1880s there was a small fleet of sailing vessels based here, alongside a dozen resident fishing boats. A little earlier, in 1828, Newburgh became the first port in Scotland to have a Lifeboat Station, then called the Shipwreck Institution. The RNLI, as the Institution became, based a lifeboat in Newburgh until 1961, when it moved to Peterhead. In the 1950s Newburgh remained an active port with quays and a mill. Much of its economic base had declined by 1970, but the corner was turned - as with so many settlements in north east Scotland - with the discovery of oil under the North Sea. Newburgh, with its attractive setting and within commuting range of both Aberdeen and Peterhead rapidly became a desirable place to live. Today's Newburgh is an active and thriving settlement. At its centre is the Udny Arms Hotel providing accommodation, great views over the River Ythan, and an excellent restaurant. Beyond the River Ythan lies one of the oddest landscapes in Britain. Forvie Sands comprises an area of dunes some three miles long and a mile wide. At its heart are the remains of Forvie Kirk, built in the 1100s. This is all that can now be seen of the village of Forvie, once a thriving community but buried by shifting dunes during a storm in 1413. www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/newburgh/newburgh/
Sands of Forvie Nature Reserve: www.visitscotland.com/info/towns-villages/forvie-national... Shifting sands and seabirds The stark beauty of empty sand dunes is complemented by the call of eider ducks, wafting like gentle gossiping across the Ythan estuary. With the constant shifting of the dunes, layers of history have come and gone, revealing the half buried remains of a twelfth century church. Bird life is plentiful and you can watch the summer acrobatics of diving terns or the determined stabbing of the carrot-coloured beaks of wading oystercatchers.

Excerpt from www.pafac.org: The first sculptures were installed in Webster's Woods in 2000 and every year new pieces are presented through the Center's Art Outside program. Visitors can explore the site independently by using the park trails and discover artworks hanging in trees, burrowing in the ground, or camouflaged by the natural beauty of the foliage. The Center's gallery and Webster's Woods are both free and open to the public year round.

After catching the quad on the approach to Towrang, I jumped in the car and headed for the other side to try my luck. With a comfortable 30 seconds to spare to set up, the impressive lash up of CLF2, CLF3, 48s34 and CLP9 head past the poplars on the approach to Carrick away from Towrang, moving north toward the cloud bank with 3242 loaded grain from The Rock in the NSW Riverina to Allied Pinnacle at Maldon.
This train was rostered to be triple CLs, however, it was noticed that CLF3 wasn’t powering and the 48 may have been attached during the night to provide assistance.

Pigeons produce a very nutritious milk-like liquid in their crop for their young. It serves the same purpose as the milk of mammals.
It is produced by both sexes.
Many species fledge after about 3-4 weeks.

In plants veins transport materials both to and from the plant tissues. In mammals however veins return blood back to the heart after it has traveled to parts of the body and delivered oxygen. The veins carry the deoxygenated blood
(which has picked up carbon dioxide on its journey) to the heart where it is again oxygenated for recirculation through the body via arteries. In plants veins perform both functions - they are a plant's life line, and plants are our life line.
During photosynthesis which requires light, plants produce and give off oxygen. At night when there is no light, plants absorb a small amount of oxygen and give off carbon dioxide; however overall, they produce many times more oxygen during the day than they consume at night. And that my friends, is what keeps us and our planet alive.
"In the process [photosynthesis], they produce oxygen, which constitutes a significant portion of the air we breathe so less plants means less recycling of
carbon dioxide and less oxygen production. Plants also give us food and fibers to make clothes and without photosynthesis, we would not be able to sustain the life we are living." Alessia Para Gallio, research assistant professor at Northwestern and at the Chicago Botanic Garden. She received her Ph.D. degree in Physiological Botany from Uppsala University, Sweden, with a thesis on plant development. (Quote Source:

Thank you for viewing my photos. Your comments and/or faves are greatly appreciated.
Both can be seen with the naked eye -
One is tall, made of steel, and towers 120 feet into the sky.
The other giant is the Orion constellation. From it's head (the multi-star known as Meissa) to it's bottom left foot (the Supergiant star known as Saiph), is a mere 497 light years apart, or roughly 15,426,454,079,315,755,581 (quintillion) more feet than the tower is tall. Orion's left shoulder, the star known as Betelgeuse, measures more than 700 million miles across and if it were set where our own Sun is, it would engulf every planet up to and including Jupiter. Well, as they say - it's all relative, right?
Taken from a set of railroad tracks in Crete, Illinois - the exact location can be seen here:
Both have nests near by and I think the crow is warning off the owl. Back road of central California.

Winter was a dark time, both literally and figuratively.
But in the darkest of times there is beauty, even if you can't see it at the time.
I had to wade in to the lake up to my navel wearing jeans and runners. My camera was about 10 inches off the water and I had to wait until the ripples I'd caused faded before I could take the shot.
I think it's funny how I spent 2 years in the Canadian Rockies praying for mist and getting none. Then like buses, all the mist I'd ever wanted sauntered into my shot in a matter of minutes.
Strange life eh?
Thanks for looking

Auntie Elk, ... always likes to 'have it' more than anyone else, indeed Mist and Paddy tend to 'play's her by either stealing it (paddy) or asserting top dog position (mist) .. both of them when they get bored of the game just drop whatever 'it' may be wherever they might be ....as they have an Elk that will always bring it back to me ..... such is life
Both odd for being white and lower spec than most surviving Leganzas. I don't think this colour works well on it, but few cars of the era suit it.
Only 53k. Bizarrely a manual as well, I suspect most owners opted for automatics.
Grindelwald is both a mountain and a town in Switzerland, a land-locked country which shares borders with Italy, France and Germany (also Austria and Liechtenstein), so it is no surprise to see cars from any of those countries while visiting Grindelwald.
***********************************
This however is the little town of Grindelwald in Tasmania just out of Launceston. It is a popular tourist town with a Swiss theme running through its resort, shops and housing. The three 1/18th scale model cars are from three of the countries mentioned. The Maserati Spyder from Italy, the dear old Renault 16 from France, and the Porsche 964 from Germany. The background was taken from the carpark of the Grindelwald Village resort and looks across to what is a private residence built to the Swiss theme.

The blue and the pink together!!
Really pleased with the effect of this. Difficult to do as the pink is so much brighter that the blue!!
(taken on one exposure, no additions after the exposure. I will adjust levels, saturation, white balance, brightness and some minor cropping if required.)

Mourning Dove fun fact: males and females both feed their new babies something called “crop milk” or “pigeon milk” for the first few days of their life. Rich in protein and fat, it resembles cottage cheese, is secreted by the adults’ crop lining, and is regurgitated to the little ones.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

This fantastic review has just come in!

or Read their wonderful review here:
"So this was it finally, the first part of the Hedy Patrucci’s Burlesque Show, long awaited and blanketed like the final training before a cup final. Hedy had invited her premiere guests to the Lyrics Ballroom, and the place was totally draped in matching decorations. After the big success she gained last year with her 2019 show, expectations were high for her this year’s show. And Hedy and her team delivered! – The costumes were glamorous, the dance acts fabulous and the different sets where creative and well chosen.
It was an extremely captivating show and best entertainment in SL. Though SL had its hick ups this evening for many, it couldn’t really harm the shining success of the evening. The enthusiastic applause at the end of the show was very well deserved.
Congratulations to Hedy and her team!"

This is the final performance SUNDAY 13 SEPTEMBER @ 12PM SLT, full production of professional dancers in Second Life with Hedy Patrucci singing live from The Netherlands
Hedy's performance at the opening night was nothing more than sensational!
She was truly sizzling on stage - and is truly an entertainer in every sense of the word.
Those that attended loved it and she had the audience captivated and dying of laughter with her seductive version of Dr Long John -
All the ladies are booked to see Dr Long John after hearing Hedy sing this song in her unique and brilliant way!
Every song she sang was a masterpiece - combine that with her humor - her tease - really this last performance of Burlesque should not be missed!
Last but not least, the Burlesque Dancers were absolutely sensational and our choreographer Faith Fromund is fantastic!
So blessed and proud to have these incredibly talented and professional artists in my life! Thank you each and everyone of you
A Special mention to Chandra @ !dM DeviousMind - the headdress and feathers come from this store, the creator Chandra is just wonderful and played a huge role in the wardrobe with her stunning costumes.
Lucky door prizes to be won!
Dress it up in Burlesque or wear cocktail or formal.
I have created a "memento gift box" of this special event.
They can be found on the tables in front of the bar, also dining tables are located along the runway for front row view - you will find the gift on these tables, also on the posters either side of the stage.
Come along, bring your friends to the best event in Second Life!

Clavo mi remo en el agua
llevo tu remo en el mio.
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
El dia le ira pudiendo
poco a poco al frio.
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
Sobre todo, creo que no todo esta perdido.
Tanta lagrima, tanta lagrima,
y yo soy un vaso vacio...
Oigo una voz que me llama,
casi un suspiro:
Rema, rema, rema!
Rema, rema, rema!
En esta orilla del mundo
lo que nos es presa es baldio.
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
Yo, muy serio, voy remando,
muy adentro y sonrio.
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
THE COWDRAY RUINS ARE ONE OF ENGLAND’S MOST IMPORTANT EARLY TUDOR HOUSES.
The History of Cowdray Ruins, located on the Cowdray Estate, in the heart of the South Downs National Park, Cowdray is known to have been visited by both King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I. In September 1793, whilst undergoing repairs and refurbishments for the impending marriage of the 8th Viscount Montague, a devastating fire took hold and most of the property was destroyed. The Kitchen Tower is the only part of the mansion to remain intact today.
