we are not sure he can pull this off, but we figure it might be good for his morale.
he is still absolutely devastated after losing ms. bubble.

The Merwede Canal was realized between 1882 and 1891 as a connection for freight traffic between Amsterdam , Utrecht, the major rivers and further to Germany. Numerous works of art have been constructed along and in the Merwede Canal , including the Muntsluis (officially ‘Sluis Bewesten Utrecht’). The shipping route attracted activity on the quays; the Royal Dutch Mint established itself on the Leidsekade in 1907 and a year later the Stichtse Olie- en Lijnkoekenfabriek Cereol was erected across the street. Soon the canal could no longer cope with the growth of shipping. The new Amsterdam-Rhine Canal took over the function of the Rhine navigation in the middle of the last century. The Merwede Canal lost its significance and is no longer of importance to shipping.

The Channeled Scablands at one time were a relatively barren and soil-free region of interconnected relict and dry flood channels, coulees and cataracts eroded into Palouse loess and the typically flat-lying basalt flows that remain after cataclysmic floods within the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Washington. The channeled scablands were scoured by more than 40 cataclysmic floods during the Last Glacial Maximum and innumerable older cataclysmic floods over the last two million years. These cataclysmic floods were repeatedly unleashed when a large glacial lake repeatedly drained and swept across eastern Washington and down the Columbia River Plateau during the Pleistocene epoch. The last of the cataclysmic floods occurred between 18,200 and 14,000 years ago.
Guernsey is an island in the English Channel off the coast of Normandy. With several smaller nearby islands, it forms a jurisdiction within the Bailiwick of Guernsey, a Crown dependency. The jurisdiction is made up of ten parishes on the island of Guernsey, three other inhabited islands (Herm, Jethou and Lihou), and many small islets and rocks. The jurisdiction is not part of the United Kingdom, although defence and most foreign relations are handled by the British Government.
The entire jurisdiction lies within the Common Travel Area of the British Isles and is not a member of the European Union, but has a special relationship with it, being treated as part of the European Community with access to the single market for the purposes of free trade in goods. Taken together with the separate jurisdictions of Alderney and Sark it forms the Bailiwick of Guernsey. The two Bailiwicks of Guernsey and Jersey together form the geographical grouping known as the Channel Islands

One of the later sunset shots I took on this evening, one thing I had forgot to do was change my settings from shooting hand held during the day, to be honest I was rather late getting to this spot after being indecisive about where to shoot the sunset. However, I got some shots but had not noticed my ISO was still at 400 doh,I prefer to shoot at 100 or if I can get away with it 50 for the quality and latitude it gives me .
So this is one of a number of compositions I made before it got a bit too dark on our last night in Cornwall, more to come from Cornwall in due course .
Beachy Head Lighthouse is located in the English Channel below the cliffs of Beachy Head in East Sussex. It is 33 m high and became operational in 1902. Beachy Head was built to replace the 1834 Belle Tout Lighthouse on top of the cliffs. For 80 years it was manned by a crew of 3 lighthouse keepers at any time - I hope they received a good pay, as it seems to have been a less-than-ideal job. In 2011 the operators said they could no longer afford painting the lighthouse white and red, but a funding campaign helped keep the distinctive colour of this historic landmark.

The Channel-billed Cuckoo lays its eggs in the nests of other large birds such as the Australian Magpie, the Pied Currawong, and members of the crow family. Unlike many other cuckoos, the young birds do not evict the host's young or eggs from the nest, but simply grow faster and demand all the food, thus starving the others.
They are notorious for calling all night long during the breeding season. This species is sometimes known as the Storm-bird.
