#6283 - 2025 Day 73/365: Sometimes the world is just monochrome and naturally toned. No further processing required - though I feel in there is a lesson for us in seeing.

Sea defences almost look like tyre tracks

A type 26/FW3 pillbox sits atop the soft cliffs at Happisburgh. It knows its fate. Like everything along here, it will be consumed by the North Sea.

This mech came to me Dec. 2019, and on uptil now (June 2020) i have done 10 to 15 robots and mechs, i will upload in the near future, for your enjoyment!

 

The idea behind this one, is a farmers rebuilt farmermech, for defense against alien invasion. it was meant to part of my 'Predator* series, (you can see the first parts in my stream), but due to pandemic restrictions as you know all events was cancelled, and i stopped building for baseplate displays....... bla bla bla

 

Here is a mech, enjoy! ;-))

The light catches the water droplets perfectly at Hartlepool Battery sea defences

Berwick was captured or sacked 13 times before 1432 when it fell into the hands of the English - in its Elizabethan Town Walls that were built to keep the invading Scots out of the town. Built in 1558, the walls were the most expensive building project of England's Golden Age.

 

From the top of these walls you can take in some spectacular views over the wide estuary of the River Tweed including Stephenson's famous viaduct bridge, hailed as one of the finest in the world.

Some recent scrub clearance means you can now clearly see these Iron Age defences on the hillside.

We all have defence mechanisms.

Please do not insert images, or group invites, thank you!

 

Orford is a small town in Suffolk, England, within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths AONB. Like many Suffolk coastal towns it was of some importance as a port and fishing village in the Middle Ages. It still has a fine mediaeval castle, built to dominate the River Ore. The main geographical feature of the area is Orford Ness, a long, wide shingle spit at the mouth of the Ore. Orford Ness has in the past been used as an airstrip testing facility and in the early 1970s it was the site of a powerful radar station as part of the Cold War defences against low flying attacking aircraft; today it is a nature reserve run by the National Trust. Orford provides the only point of access to the nature reserves of Orford Ness and Havergate Island. Both sites can only be accessed via ferry boat from Orford quay. The Orford Ness ferry runs on selected days between April and October and the Havergate Island ferry on selected Saturdays. The population of Orford greatly increases during the summer months due to its flourishing sailing club. As well as the Castle, Orford's attractions include river cruises, three pubs, a traditional post office which sells fresh bread, a traditional bakery, a smokehouse and a restaurant; the Butley-Orford Oysterage.

No information at all on this vehicle.

Nothing on the DVLA website appears for this registration.

It looks like Plaxton Panther body work.

I reckon its an MOD (Ministry of Defence) vehicle similar to FE14 DGF which I have photographed and is believed to be MOD.
