From information sign...
A fort has stood on this spot since at least 1680 to protect the southern half of Rocquaine Bay.
At that time it was armed with two 'sakers' (31⁄2 inch calibre cannons). During the 18th century the gun platform was extended and musket steps were added.
During the early years of the 19th century, with the threat of French invasion at its height, the present magazine was added and the parapet strengthened.
A signal mast was sited on the bastion at the south-western corner of the fort. The fort was armed with three 18-pounder guns.
By 1842 Fort Pezeries had fallen into disrepair. During the Second World War the German occupying forces built an earthwork machine gun position on the shortened western wall.
Maybe yes, mabe not. We found this bust in an old classroom. It was completely ravaged. The young students had opened holes in his eyes, had broken the nose and one hear. They even did drawings and lettering with graffiti ink impossible to erase. I thought I could use it as a mannequin, while I do not have one that suits my purposes. Cristina is restoring it and giving it a new life. We are willing to share the Atelier with this fellow, as he seems to be quiet and nice. We decided to give him the name of Caesar.
The original photo was of a tacky statue that graced a hall on the cruise ship we traveled on to explore parts of Alaska. Personally, I feel that my Photoleap editing greatly improved its appearance.
There are fountains and statues galore at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
Happy Flare Friday!

Still building on, a long way from Luckenbach Texas; and even farther from Las Vegas.
One thing I know for sure: tomorrow, the clouds will be beautiful.
Little Caesars (2,614 square feet)

Opened in 2006; originally Bojangles' (1982-2005)
One of the statues outside the Quirinal palace, the residence for the President of Italy, in Rome, lit by the setting sun.
Widely reported to be a young Julius Caesar, however he appears un-armoured and carrying the horn of plenty. I haven't been able to find a good source, but am aware that Caesar's political career didn't begin til his mid 30s, and this feels like a more youthful depiction.
Shot with a Nikon D7000 and a Nikkor AFS DX 18-200mm F/3.5-5.6G lens, and processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
Person or persons unknow had collected copper containing rocks - didn't want you thinking that Caesar had hewn them himself!
Copper ore has been mined and wrought in the area since ancient times. Discoveries prove the existence of first settlements 6300 years ago and findings document the beginning of copper mining from the local deposits approx. 3500 years ago. Scattered findings around the Kaiserbründl and Gratlspitze also indicate prehistoric ore mining in this area. The name Thierberg (former name for Gratlspitze) is specifically mentioned towards the end of the middle ages in a list of goods from 1416 as a copper ore source. The mines on Gratlspitze are several kilometers long. Numerous tunnels and shafts were dug in order to find the ore. Towards the end of the middle ages, the silver found in the ore was of greater importance than that of prehistoric times as it was used in the minting of coins.
Mining ceased here in the mid-19th century.
The is part of Caesars Palace, the largest and best known casino operations in Las Vegas. It opened in 1966 and has over 4,000 rooms and suites. While still opulent, the famous statues and buildings ae showing signs of age. Rooms at Caesars Palace average $615 per night.
This is one of my favorite overlooks. This is looking at Table Rock from Caesar's Head. B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l.
On a recent business trip to Las Vegas I was roaming around at the Forum Shops at Caesars, an upscale mall in the Caesar Palace casino. The mall is modeled after the old Rome at the time of Caesar. For me it was more interesting hunting around with my camera than shopping.

Caesars Palace construction began in 1966. It was instrumental in establishing the era of lavish casinos. It has over 4,000 rooms and is renowned for creating a Greco-Roman fantasyland featuring reproductions of classical statuary. The goal was to create an atmosphere in which everyone staying at the hotel would feel like a Caesar. Since we didn't stay there I can't assess as to whether this goal has been achieved!
On this day (13th), or perhaps on this day yesterday (12th) in 100 BC, or perhaps not 100 BC, sources don't all agree, the Roman general and statesman Julius Caesar was born. A member of the First Triumvirate, Caesar led the Roman armies in the Gallic Wars before defeating his political rival Pompey in a civil war, and subsequently became dictator from 49 BC until his assassination in 44 BC. He played a critical role in the events that led to the demise of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire.
Anyway, here he is with his troops in a Roman city, maybe Rome.
My son in law is very proud of his roses. When they moved into the house the roses were in very bad shape. He took his time and nurtured them back to life. It shows the love he has for nature and my daughter.
Our last Wainwright of the day. After this there were 10 to go to complete the round we started in 2015.
