a very dull day on the beach with washed out colour, so I thought he would look good in black & white!

On our first day in Alaska, we drove south on the Seward Highway and enjoyed epic mountain views across the Turnagain Arm. The weather was beautiful, but I was greedy and wanted to return the next morning to capture some stunning morning light. While at the hotel, I checked the weather forecast for the next day and realized my mistake. It was going to be 20°F, and gale-force winds were expected. Since we only had a few days in Anchorage, I decided to take the risk and brave the conditions. My wife and daughter decided not to join me on this adventure.
While driving on the highway to reach the viewpoints, nothing noteworthy happened. However, the cold weather was unbearable, particularly with the wind chill. I prepared the camera beforehand to capture the images and would quickly run out of the car with my camera & tripod once the light became interesting. After taking the shot, I would hurry back inside the car to warm up. Thankfully, the views were breathtaking; the taller peaks appeared to have received a light dusting of snow overnight. With the warm morning light reflecting perfectly on the mountains that were now covered entirely in snow, all I had to do was just point and shoot.
I've been having fun with the Prisma app, the more I use it the more I wish I had this as a Lightroom Plugin.
The Duke of Wellington statue in Glasgow has become an iconic site due to the construction cone on its head. What started as prank is now part of the Glasgow identify, highlighting that Glaswegians don’t take themselves too seriously.
Deficits are when adults tell the government what they want and their kids pay for it :-)

Duke's Place looking toward St. Botolph's Church with St. James Passage to the right. St. James Passage used to be Church Passage, & it used to be much narrower (I'm also using a very wide 14mm lens). It leads into Mitre Square. It was at this entrance to Church Passage where the three men (Joseph Lawende, Joseph Levy & Harry Harris) leaving the Jewish Imperial Club on Duke Street saw a man & a woman at around 1:35 AM on the 30th of September 1888. Catherine Eddowes was found murdered about 10 minutes later in Mitre Square.
Lawende was shown some of Eddowes's clothes & thought they looked the same as to what the woman he saw was wearing.

Duke Street in Bath and adjoining parts of North Parade were built in 1748 by John Wood the Elder. Several of the buildings have been designated as Grade I listed buildings. The street, which overlooks the River Avon, is pedestrianised with no vehicles permitted to enter.
Duke Street was part of a wider scheme to build a Royal Forum, including South Parade, Pierrepont Street and North Parade, similar to Queen Square, which was never completed. Wood designed the facade, of Bath stone, after which a variety of builders completed the work with different interiors and rear elevations. Many of the buildings are now hotels whilst some remain as private residences.
Behind it is the spire of the Victorian St John the Evangelist RC Church (1861-7); at 68 metres it has the tallest spire in the city, rather unusually for a Roman Catholic church in southern England.
Bath is the largest city in the ceremonial county of Somerset. With a history going back to Roman times, when it first became a centre for bathing, much of its famed architecture dates from the Georgian era, when it became a fashionable place for wealthy Londoners to take the waters, connected by the ever faster stagecoach network.
Many of the streets and squares were laid out by John Wood, the Elder. Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early 19th century. Further building was undertaken in the 19th century and following the Baedecker Blitz of 1942.

Fowler 10nhp Crane Engine No. 17106 was built in 1928 and spent most of its working life with Marstons Road Services in Liverpool hauling castings, dynamos and ship's gear around Great Britain. The engine gained the name 'Duke of York' in 1952 and was always known as 'the big engine' during its working life. The engine underwent major repairs in the mid 1990s and is seen here in the colliery yard at Beamish
This is my hedgehog I got this summer and he's my little buddy. He's 3 months old and is a spunky little man who has quite the attitude and I love him to pieces.
Star trails over the Duke of Lancaster shot a couple weeks ago my first star trails photo with a little help from @A_Cro who has a better photo from the same night

Sarah Duke gardens on a cold late Winter day and with a hard freeze predicted for tonight it might be the last color for awhile.

Mostyn, North Wales (the ship is now repainted all black)
From wikipedia
"The plan was to transform the ship into the largest open air art gallery in the UK. As of August 2012, the Latvian graffiti artist "Kiwie" was commissioned to spraypaint a design on the ship.[4] The ship was covered with graffiti described as "bright and surreal".[5] The first phase of the project saw Kiwie and other European graffiti artists paint murals on the ship between August and November 2012, and the second phase (starting at the end of March 2013) included the work of British-based artists such as Snub23, Spacehop, Dan Kitchener and Dale Grimshaw.[6] One of the artworks is a picture of the ship's first captain, John 'Jack' Irwin. However in 2017 both sides of the ship were painted black."

Another of my favourite places for a day out and good walk is Arnside and Silverdale.
I'll have to get into landscape photography to show how beautiful it is there, but that will mean carrying another lens on our walks!!
Swindon Bus Company's YN55 NHK, named Duke of Cornwall, sits at Flemming Way halfway through working a 5 through to Park North. It's been a while since I've seen these out and about in Swindon and was a pleasant surprise to have these over the usual Solar's I'd have ended up spending an evening on.
These Scania N94's, new to Transdev London Sovereign in October of 2005, were named after locomotives that came out of Swindon Rail Works when they were purchased by Thamesdown back in 2013.
