The TSS Duke of Lancaster was a railway steamer passenger ship which operated in Europe from 1956 to 1979, and is currently beached near Mostyn Docks, on the River Dee. Unfortunately in the meantime the ship has been painted black (by "unknown people") and all the graffiti are gone.

This superb Renaissance equestrian statue of Duke Antoine of Lorraine (1489-1544) adorns the gatehouse of the palace of the Lorraine's Dukes in Nancy. It took as a model the famous equestrian statue of King Louis XII in Blois.

 

The original statue, which dated from 1511-1512, was destroyed during the french Revolution. The current statue dates from 1851.

Sleutelbloemvlinder (Hamearis lucina) Eifel Germany. The Duke of Burgundy, the only member of the genus Hamearis, is a European butterfly in the family Riodinidae. For many years, it was known as the "Duke of Burgundy fritillary", because the adult's chequered pattern is strongly reminiscent of "true" fritillaries of the family Nymphalidae.

The plant is Water avens (Geum rivale)

Built in 1956 at Harland and Wolff, Belfast, the ship was used mainly as a ferry from Heysham to Belfast, although also cruises to Denmark, Norway, Spain and around Britain. In 1978 it was laid up in Barrow in Furness. Then in 1979 Sold to Empirewise Ltd who intended to use her as a static Leisure Centre. She was brought into a permanent dock and surrounded by sand for the Dee Estuary and known as the Funship. After a battle with the Local Authority, the owners halted the Funship Business. After it was used as storage, it was then sold again in 2012 but never used. 2024 the vessel is known to be land-locked in North Wales in poor condition and in contention with Flintshire County Council as to its ownership and future use.

It will never work ;-)

Frozen Duke - Dawn breaks upon the frosty shoreline of Ullswater with the frozen Duke of Portland boathouse catching the early light as mist rolls down the lake.

 

The hoar frost on the foreground reeds just hints at what an artic dawn it was; experiencing such ethereal conditions a year ago made waiting around on Ullswater's shore in such Siberian temperatures surprisingly bearable, actually enjoyable to be honest.

 

Spectacular hoar frost conditions on a fiercely, bitterly cold dawn.
