Bamburgh Castle is a castle on the northeast coast of England, by the village of Bamburgh in Northumberland. It is a Grade I listed building. The site was originally the location of a Celtic Brittonic fort known as Din Guarie and may have been the capital of the kingdom of Bernicia from its foundation in c. 420 to 547. After passing between the Britons and the Anglo-Saxons three times, the fort came under Anglo-Saxon control in 590. The fort was destroyed by Vikings in 993, and the Normans later built a new castle on the site, which forms the core of the present one. After a revolt in 1095 supported by the castle's owner, it became the property of the English monarch. In the 17th century, financial difficulties led to the castle deteriorating, but it was restored by various owners during the 18th and 19th centuries.
The modern heart of Singapore: Central Business District (CBD).
It is hard to believe that a few decades ago Singapore was still a Third World country.

A view of the Financial District from Old Pier 1 in Brooklyn. For several years, I have wanted to take my camera here to capture this image (even though it's been photographed countless times by others). I guess you could call it a bucket list item. Anyway, this year, I finally did it. We were staying in Connecticut to visit family for Christmas. On the 26th, I left the house shortly after 4 am and made my way to Brooklyn before 6 am. I found street parking (much easier on a Sunday morning, I'm guessing), and spent a few hours wandering around and photographing this beautiful skyline. But this was the location I really wanted to visit. Most of our time that week had been cloudy, but on this day, there were clear skies and eventually, golden light as the sun rose. It made for a very rewarding morning for me. 17
I was making the best of the sunshine in Glasgow - there were lots of deep black shadows and every building in the financial district glowed with amazing reflections. Hopefully I managed to get some of that vibe in. Was also delighted it was accepted into the LFI online gallery Architecture / Cityscape
Was never happy with the original image so when we went past thought I'd give it another go, quite pleased with it.

The architectural masterpiece that of course is the well photographed Lloyds Insurance building flanked by other buildings which in part make up the financial district in London.
The final photo from this visit to Mexico City.
Each visit to Mexico City we walk to this building but have yet to go inside.
It is Poliforum Siqueiros on Av. de los Insurgentes Sur.
It’s unique architectural design is known for bearing the extensive work of muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros on just about every available surface.
The “Polyforum Theater,” inside, is circular in the ancient Greek style, and the centre hosts frequent art exhibitions and similar events.
Originally part of the World Trade Center complex, today it’s an independent cultural centre.
The building is believed to have been commissioned as a mural in 1960. But by the middle of the decade, it had been re-planned as not just a painting, but as an entire building.
An international team of architects, engineers, painters, sculptors, and acoustics people assembled the project.
Significant political and financial complications involved in the project delayed its final opening until 1971.
David Alfaro Siqueiros was a Mexican social realist painter, best known for his large public murals using the latest in equipment, materials and technique.
Along with Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco, he was one of the most famous of the "Mexican muralists".
