Inverbrackie, South Australia
Former Inverbrackie Caledonian Church.
Land was slowly taken up here from the early 1840s. One of the first residents was Dr William Innes, a Scot who named the locality Inverbrackie after his home in Scotland near Invergordon which is across the Firth of Moray from Nairn. The Scottish McLeods had owned Inverbrackie or Inverbreakie (spellings vary) castle from the 1300s. They were related to the Innes family. In 1699 the McLeods sold Inverbrackie Castle to Sir William Gordon who was part of the Earls of Sutherland family. Sir William Gordon renamed the castle Invergordon, hence the name of today’s Scottish town. In 1873 the remains of the 14th century castle were absorbed into a newly constructed Elizabethan style mansion. Unfortunately this was totally destroyed by fire in 1928 and the castle grounds are now the Inverbreakie Golf course on the outskirts of Invergordon. Dr Innes, James Johnston of Oakbank and others met at the tiny Payne’s Inn at Inverbrackie SA in 1846 and decided to ask the colonial government for a land grant to establish a Church of Scotland there. They got a free grant of 20 acres and £150 towards the construction of the church. The Scottish church subsequently opened in 1849 and Dr Innes was the first burial in the attached cemetery that year. The church was also used as a school as the Scots placed great importance on education. 24 children were attending the Inverbrackie School by 1851. The school closed in 1857 when the first Woodside School opened. In 1852 parishioners guaranteed a stipend to entice John Macbean from Scotland to come out as the local Presbyterian minister. A manse was built on the glebe lands for him. In 1868 Macbean got the Inverbrackie church into the Presbyterian Union of SA. He finished up as minister at Inverbrackie in 1884. Later ministers served both the Inverbrackie and Woodside Presbyterian churches. Reverend Stewart was the last minister to serve Inverbrackie between 1922 and 1926 but it is not known how often services were conducted there as the Presbyterian church in Woodside was the main one from 1878. The manse and glebe lands were sold in 1925 and the church closed permanently soon after. Miraculously this 1849 church still stands on lands adjacent to Woodside Army Barracks but it is covered with ivy. It deserves restoration by the government.
Lost when Flickr ate 124 of my 148 photos last year...they found them after three days and a team of 6 searching...but all the text...the journaling was gone...
All I have left is the images, but for this one I was thinking of a special friend who I love very much. For this one "Little Girl", I remembered the song that was in my head for you...it speaks enough for me through it's lyrics and they are as true now as they were in fall of 2022. If I told you.....oh how I want to tell you...the saddest part is you will never see this post...or know how I feel...I hope you are ok wherever you are...
I love you Little One....

"It's a full moon, L.A
And we're alone for the first time
On Venice beach under the palm trees
Tell me your dreams and I'll tell you mine
What would you say if I told you
You're my last thought at the end of each night?
Would you believe me
Or would you even reply?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
I am a loner, I am stubborn
Can you handle this world I live in?
I know I can't change, but for you I'd compromise
I'd be on your side if you'd be on mine
Yes, you're anxious and you're stubborn too
But I'd learn to love the worst parts of you
Could be the full moon or this cheap wine
But I'm hoping you'll reply
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
Is it in the stars or some age old truth?
Why did the universe draw me to you?
You're so magnetic, I am hypnotized
Feels like I've known you since before this life
I hope I always see you this way
Here's to wondering if you feel the same
But I can tell when your eyes meet mine
That the truth isn't your reply
You do
You do
You do
You do"
"If I Told You" by Courtney Marie Andrews
Als besonders erstrebenswert gilt es für strenggläubige Hindus, in Varanasi im Ganges zu baden, sowie dort einmal zu sterben und verbrannt zu werden. Entlang des Flusses ziehen sich kilometerlange, stufenartige Uferbefestigungen hin, die Ghats, an denen auf der einen Seite die Gläubigen im Wasser des für sie heiligen Flusses baden und wenige Meter weiter die Leichen der Verstorbenen verbrannt werden. Die Asche streut man anschließend ins Wasser. Ein Bad im Ganges soll von Sünden reinigen, in Varanasi zu sterben und verbrannt zu werden, ist der hinduistischen Mythologie zufolge, der Ausbruch aus dem ständigen Kreislauf der Wiedergeburt.
The Ghats in Varanasi are world-renowned embankments made in steps of stone slabs along the river bank where pilgrims perform ritual ablutions. The ghats are an integral complement to the Hindu concept of divinity represented in physical, metaphysical, and supernatural elements.[90] Varanasi has at least 84 ghats, most of which are used for bathing by pilgrims and spiritually significant Hindu puja ceremony, while a few are used exclusively as Hindu cremation sites. Steps in the ghats lead to the banks of Ganges, including the Dashashwamedh Ghat, the Manikarnika Ghat, the Panchganga Ghat, and the Harishchandra Ghat, where Hindus cremate their dead. Many ghats are associated with Hindu legends and several are now privately owned.
Many of the ghats were constructed under the patronage of the Marathas, Shindes (Scindias), Holkars, Bhonsles, and Peshwas. Most are bathing ghats, while others are used as cremation sites. A morning boat ride on the Ganges across the ghats is a popular tourist attraction. The extensive stretches of ghats in Varanasi enhance the riverfront with a multitude of shrines, temples, and palaces built "tier on tier above the water's edge".
St. Aldhelm's Chapel,
Isle of Purbeck,
Dorset.
88sec Exposure with Kase Filters
TAKEN - 6.53p.m. Sat 29th Aug'20
St Aldhelm's Chapel is a Norman chapel on St Aldhelm's Head in the parish of Worth Matravers, Swanage, Dorset. It stands close to the cliffs, 108 metres (354 ft) above sea level. It is a Grade I listed building.
The square stone chapel stands within a low circular earthwork, which may be the remains of a pre-Conquest Christian enclosure. The building has several architectural features which are unusual for a chapel; the square shape, the orientation of the corners of the building towards the cardinal points, and the division and restriction of the interior space by a large central column.
The lack of evidence for an altar or a piscina suggests that the building may not have been built as a Chapel. It may have originally been built as a watchtower for Corfe Castle, covering the sea approaches to the south. Its identification as a purpose-built chapel rests on records of payments to a chaplain in the reign of King Henry III (1261–1272).
I have seen so many snaps of fog, but this is the 1st time, I witnessed it in person.
It was such a divine feel seeing that thin layer of fog linger around the valley floor until the sun hit them. It was a wonderful day in Yosemite!

week.45 : The sun was out and the snow was gone, so I whipped out my IR camera. This is a shot of the Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School. I thought the tree's shadow looked like a sinister arm with many fingers reaching out toward the chapel.
"His arm has grown long indeed," Gimli said, "if he can draw snow down from the North to trouble us here three hundred leagues away."

I love this shot. I wish I had done more detailing on it, but it came out so smooth, and clean. And I love the way the flame effects come up in the background. A combination of the fallen angel character and some of my old tech pieces.
Her name is Divinity (yes, an interesting name!), waitress in a 50's themed restaurant.
A chain burger restaurant was down the block but this place is so much better. The price was about the same too, but they used locally sourced meats and vegetables, cooked deliciously to order.
I couldn't resist also getting a milkshake to complete the experience!

A tranquil early morning walk through Fushimi Inari-taisha in Kyoto, Japan. A morning I will not forget.
We did the guided tour of the Bodleian while we were in Oxford and I'm so glad we did. The guide was so knowledgeable and we got to go to all kinds of areas that you can't access normally (and many of which you can't photograph!) We started here in the Divinity School, a building that has evolved from its beginnings in the C15th until Wren (himself an Oxford scholar) added the door bottom left to line up with the Sheldonian Theatre opposite in the C17th It is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures, oral exams and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, more recently it was used as the Hospital Wing of Hogwarts in the first two Harry Potter films.
Abdul Kalam in his book Ignited Minds says that, “Only children will have these innovative ideas... I personally feel that young have the most powerful minds. They can overcome the negativity of the bureaucracy and some self-centered policies of the state government to enrich the people of the country."
