I haven't seen a decent sunset for some time, there always seems to be a bank of low cloud sitting over Devon. It had been a wonderful afternoon, with not a breath of wind to stir the surface of the rock pools . Even the fish were behaving themselves. It was just the best place to be at that moment of time, as the sky slowly took on hints of purple and pink :)) I absentmindedly wandered across the beach in a euphoric state, checking out the various rocks for possibilities. I then realised i hadn't done a sunset in my immersing myself in
nature series. So Citizen of Glass by Agnes Obel it is, I'm hoping I'm almost transparent :)))
Spiral staircase at the Citizen M hotel in Southwark, South London.
Thanks to Sean Batten for sharing a map of spiral staircases across London.
Looking forward to seeing you on YouTube on the 5th December when I'll upload a video of some of my best photos to my channel, Sights and Scenes.
ENG: The Pankow Citizens' Park is a 12 hectare park area along the Panke (small river) in Berlin. It was renovated as a country estate in 1864 and acquired by the community of Pankow in 1907. The public green area offers a lot of recreation, playgrounds or a small library as well as a beer garden and is located in the immediate vicinity of the Pankow Town Hall in the district of Pankow. But the park is without direct connection to the special train to Pankow. 😀
GER: Der Bürgerpark Pankow ist ein 12 Hektar großes Parkgelände längs der Panke (kleiner Fluss) in Berlin. Er wurde etwa 1864 als Landsitz hergerichtet und 1907 von der Gemeinde Pankow erworben. Die öffentlich zugängige Grünanlage bietet viel Erholung, sowie Spielplätze oder auch eine kleine Bibliothek sowie einen Biergarten und befindet sich in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Pankower Rathaus im Bezirk Pankow. Aber der Park ist ohne direkter Verbindung zum Sonderzug nach Pankow. 😀
What I want to challenge people so limited in thinking that they want every country to only include rich white wealthy folks is not just how much we benefit from an exchange of ideas but also how everyone is a citizen of the world and if we do not work together in terms of conserving resources and combatting climate change, that world will cease to exist for everyone but Elon Musk orbiting forever in his rocket ship. So, if you are reading this and you aren’t Elon Musk, start asking yourself what you can do as a citizen of the world and stop falling prey to ideas manufactured by the government to keep you hateful and distracted from what really matters. They say there is never money for the environment or for refugees but as soon as people need to be killed in war, they always seem to find some serious cash in the government couch cushions.

閑静な住宅地なのにゴミ捨て場はデザインされてないない。住宅に統一性がないのと同じくゴミ箱も各家庭が個々に違うものを使用している。同じデザインなら街の風景も違うのだろうけど。そこが日本らしさなのかもしれない。
The Georgia-Pacific mill in Toledo is owned by the Koch Brothers. I guess whatever it spews forth is protected speech.
Macro Mondays them for June 2 is "Watch." You'll note that the only hands in this picture belong to this watch.
"Yay! Another spiral staircase" I hear you shout, It is but this is one of my favourites from my trip to London last week.
This lovely spiral is in the Bankside Citizen M hotel in Southwark. I didn't set up any appointments for this one, I just walked in and spoke to the girl at the desk and she was more than happy for me to spend a bit of time to get the photos I wanted. It's a fun and challenging location to shoot at as there isn't much room underneath the staircase and it involves a bit of crawling around on the floor.
I set up my camera on my mini tripod and with the omnidirectional screen on my camera I was able to find my composition without breaking my back in the process.
citizenM is a Netherlands based hotel chain. It opened its first hotel at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport in 2008, followed by one in city of Amsterdam itself in 2009. Its first overseas hotel in Glasgow opened in 2010, followed by one in London in 2012.
The staircase itself was built in Leiden in Holland and then shipped over to the UK and installed into the hotel.
The town of St Andrews on the east coast of Scotland lies within the Kingdom of Fife. Pictured here are a couple of locations from the town.

Έντεκα έτη φωτός μακριά βρίσκεται ζωή ανθίζουσα ομοίων μας, που προσπαθούν και αυτοί μα πιο ειλικρινά.
Παραπάνω δεν γνωρίζω μα και να γνώριζα τίποτα δεν θα έλεγα, γιατί τα μυστικά σε τούτο τον πλανήτη αξίζουν χρυσάφι.
Νύχτα τώρα περπατώ και αφοσιωμένος φυσικά στη γυναίκα που αγαπώ, μα τα μάτια μου τρεμοπαίζουν στη φούστα της ηδονής.
Πεινασμένος δηλαδή για γρήγορο φαγητό, ώστε να ξεχαστώ κάπου που να μην υπάρχει το στοιχειωμένο μαύρο της νυφικό.
Και αν με ρωτάτε που, σε έναν εγκαταλειμμένο καναπέ στην άκρη του δρόμου ταλαιπωρημένο και ευνουχισμένο.
Βράδυ ούτως η άλλος είναι και κανείς δεν με βλέπει, και να ξεκουραστώ κάμποσο μέχρι να χωνέψω δεν πειράζει.
Τι στο σπίτι τι εδώ μονάχος είμαι, και αν δω γυναίκα να περπατά θα σφυρίξω κλέφτικα μήπως και με καταλάβει.
Γιατί αν σφυρίξω κανονικά καμία σημασία θαρρώ πως δεν θα μου δώσει, παρά θα με προσπεράσει με αρχοντικό το βλέμμα της.
Αποφεύγω να της κοιτώ κατάματα, γιατί πρώτες αυτές σαν χαμηλοβλεπούσες αθώες περιστέρες περπατάνε και χαμογελάνε.
Εγώ νυχτερίδες κουβαλώ στους ώμους μου, και τη μία την έχω στείλει στη γυναίκα που αγαπώ για την άνοιξη που έρχεται.
Κοντός ψαλμός αλληλούια λένε, και αν ακόμα δεν την έχει δει τότε από κάπου αλλού τρέφει το κορμί της.
Ελπίζω να με αγαπά και να μη με παραπλανά τόσο καιρό, σε τούτο το βάλτο που περπατώ και που παρά της δόξας της την αγαπώ.
Και τούτο το λέγω γιατί αν όχι τότε ο ήλιος θα αλλάξει όψη θα σκοτεινιάσει, και φουρτουνιασμένες καταιγίδες θα κατεβάσει.
Έχω χορτάσει και χωνεύω τώρα σφυρίζοντας αδιάφορα, σε δρόμο που περπατούν ολίγοι άνθρωποι και μοναχοί ψέλνουν.
Πάντως αν είναι κάποτε να περπατήσω σε δρόμους διαφορετικούς, τότε και διαφορετικά ρούχα θα φορέσω που αρμόζουν.
Αργότερα θα επιλέξω το σημείο εκκίνησης της καινούργιας μου αρχής, και επί του τάφου μου θα σταθώ σαν αναστημένος.
Υ.Γ...Φασκόμηλο..."Η Ανάσταση Του Λαζάρου"
This illustration simply shows a typical Ancient Roman family c. 150 AD.
The Father wears a toga over his tunic, which was the typical dress of adult male citizens. His is plain white, because he is an ordinary citizen, however senators had a purple stripe on their tunic and toga. Sometimes other colors of Togas were worn, like black for funerals. Only the Emperor could wear an all purple toga, which was extremely expensive.
The Mother wears a stola. This dress is very similar to the chiton of Ancient Greece. It could be either sleeveless like the one pictured or with long, fasten up sleeves.
The children wear tunics. The boy and baby both wear bullas around their necks. These are good luck charms believed to ward off evil spirits. When the boy turns 14, he will go to the Forum, where he will have his bulla removed and given a Toga, a sign of becoming an adult male citizen.
