The 'Dipping bridge' dates back to the late 15th or early 16th century, and straddles the River Ogmore near Merthyr Mawr, south Wales.
It gets its name from the two openings in the parapets, which were used for sheep washing.
Sunrise this morning (25/11) at my nearest beach. There's a group who go swimming at first light 365 days of the year, rain or shine. I often think they're mad, especially in stormy weather. This morning it was definitely shine, the sea as calm as it will ever be.
(The location data can't pinpoint the beach. It's Langland Bay, near Swansea.)
It’s rumoured that this was used to cleanse coins before transactions were made in plague ridden times. I don’t think I’ve touched real money in a year so in some ways it could be seen as an ancient alternative to Apple Pay.

Scotland and we discover Loch Lubnaig, a nice spot for a break, in between two showers... we are to get a lot of images.
Loch Lubnaig is a small freshwater loch near Callander in the Stirling council area, Scottish Highlands.
It lies in the former county of Perthshire.
It is part of the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park.
It is around 5 km long, and has depths of up to 44.5 metres.
The loch nestles in the space between Ben Ledi and Ben Vorlich.
Fed by the River Balvaig from the north and drained by the Garbh Uisge to the south, Loch Lubnaig offers fishing from the shore while canoes can be rented at the north end.
Alternatively, two car parking areas on the east shore offer perfect, albeit sometimes busy, canoe launching points.
But as it is raining, we are in luck, not many people around and, aaahhh, silent!
A golden Autumn branch decorates my view.
Hope that this will make you smile and have a wonderful Monday and thanks for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

A Yellow-jumped Warbler ( Audubon's) is thinking about a second dip after already enjoying one.
Did you know that the Yellow-rumped Warbler is divided into four forms?
The one shown is a Audubon's Warbler and breeds in western North America. Males sport a yellow throat and gray head and chest.
The Myrtle form breeds in eastern and norther north America. The male's white throat distinguishes it from the three other forms, along with other differences.
The Black-fronted warblers look like the Audubon's warblers but males have a dark face and breast. They live in Mexico and are nonmigratory.
The fourth but not least, the Goldman's Warbler males have a yellow throat bordered in white, and are nearly black on the head and ches. They live in Guatemala and are nonmigratory.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Previously unpublished image captured in March 2019.
BLU 31 negotiates the dip at Enka on their eastbound morning run to Asheville. Although they only have 13 cars on the drawbar, the rolling and at times treacherous terrain of the Murphy Branch can give even a trio of SD40s a workout.
On this one I used the sun peaking through the shade at a medium slow shutter speed 1/40 second to make little squiggly lines in the water ripples from the sun's reflection on the water, this is done in bright afternoon light in the shade, now you know how to do this trick,
it's about imagination and the love of light, break free, feel the light. you can do anything with a camera, get a idea in your head and then figure out how to do it, and bring it to life, might take a few try's, learn what went wrong as you attempt your creation, and end up with the image you wanted, it is not magic, it is you. be yourself, and use the light
A Water Dragon* enjoys a dip amongst the Water Lilies. Only the back of its head and part of its body are visible near the stalks of the Lilies.
* The Australian water dragon, which includes the eastern water dragon and the Gippsland water dragon subspecies, is an arboreal agamid species native to eastern Australia from Victoria northwards to Queensland. There may be a small introduced population on the south-east coast of South Australia.

The Dipping Stone on Whaley Moor is an example of an early medieval wayside cross which also functioned as a boundary marker. Though lacking its shafts and cross heads, it is reasonably well preserved and is important as one of the regional group of twin-socketed wayside crosses which also includes the Bow Stones and Robin Hood's Picking Rods.
that will last a lifetime...

An Eastbound BNSF autorack train rolls into Winslow, riding the iconic dips paralleling I-40 with the San Francisco peaks about 60 miles away providing a snow covered backdrop.
66513 has crested the significant dip in the line on the approach to Bermuda Park station heading 4M61 Southampton to Trafford Park.
