One of the iconic peaks along the Kananaskis Trail. Too many peaks to pick a favorite, but Mt. Kidd is high on the short list.
"Mount Kidd is a 2,958-meter (9705 ft) double-summit massif centrally located in Kananaskis Country in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. Mount Kidd is situated within Spray Valley Provincial Park." wikipedia
Have a wonderful weekend!

for an enjoyable 'Travel Tuesday'!
Managed to get this shot of the iconic gate when there was almost no one around. It pays to get up early!!!
London has two "high rise" districts, Canary Wharf, the new boy on the block out in East London, and what's called "the square mile", near the Bank of England, which is the old financial district of London and is still very vibrant today and continues to accrue some interesting new architecture. Here we see three of these iconic buildings from the square mile area - on the left, 52 Lime Street, called the Scalpel, in the centre, the Willis building, and on the right the Richard Rogers designed Lloyds building, the most well known and the oldest by quite some margin, having opened in 1985.
It would be interesting to know how many times the Lloyds building has been photographed. I know that i personally have added substantially to that sum as it's a building that I love to shoot, there's so much interesting detail.

The Landwasser Viaduct was constructed between 1901 and 1902 on behalf of the Rhaetian Railway, which both owns and operates it till today. The viaduct is part of the World Heritage-listed Albula Railway linking Thusis on the Hinterrhein (697 m) and Filisur (1,080 m) with St. Moritz in the Engadin (1,775 m). The Landwasser Viaduct is 65 m high and 136 m long. One of the striking features is its highly pronounced curve.
In 2009 the viaduct was renovated for the first time since its original construction.

Iconic reflection in winter of the icelandic mound affectionately known as Kirkjufell. Do you think the parking lot was actually empty?... It was February.
Almost abstract crop on a '41 Packard 120 Nose. Very oblique light exaggerates the shades.

Vintage, rustic-style entrance sign on Highway 61 at Gooseberry Falls State Park. This sign is one of my earliest memories of the North Shore.
The park is located in Castle Danger, about ten miles north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on the North Shore of Lake Superior. It is one of Minnesota's most popular and treasured state parks.
It was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the late 1930's/early 1940's as part of the New Deal getting men back to work during the Great Depression. There are several awesome historic buildings here along with lots of trails, many feet of rocky Lake Superior shoreline, a campground (book a year ahead of time for summer camping!), an awesome picnic area with CCC-built tables still in place and lots more.
It's a "must stop" place if you are going anywhere on the North Shore.
This is probably the most iconic and known ship of my Country's Navy.
Cheers everyone.

The wonderful iconic Wellington Cable Car. The sky was a fabulous colour but I decided to try and do selective colour process to show off the car.
3801 is a two-cylinder simple, non-condensing, superheated, ‘Pacific’ 4-6-2 express passenger steam locomotive. Operated by the New South Wales Government Railways between 1943 and 1976, it is arguably Australia's most famous steam locomotive. I took this shot at the 150th anniversary celebration of railways in New South Wales in 2005.
Here is a link to a video of these locos in action at the 150th Anniversary celebrations: www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1CAAsFBP2s
The morning was looking very fall-ish with mist in the woods, leaves on the ground, and shades of orange.
The Bixby Bridge is one of the most photographed bridges in the country. It is located about 15 miles south of Carmel, California along the Big Sur.

Another view of the icon of Stourhead the Palladian bridge and The Pantheon (Temple of Hercules). Wander around these lovely National Trust owned grounds at any time of the year but for me the autumn colours make for a splendid walk and photo opportunity of course.
Widely regarded as New Zealand's national flower, the Kowhai (Ko-fai) is native to this country and enjoys iconic status amongst Kiwis. Trees all over the country are currently covered with these small bright yellow flowers. It is a welcome harbinger of spring in this part of the world.

And here is Boz Scaggs with his incomparable 'Lowdown' track from the iconic 1976 album 'Silk Degrees':

This is the track that Robert Stigwood wanted to use on the soundtrack of 'Saturday Night Fever' but, for whatever reason, Boz Scaggs declined!! Many years later Boz Scaggs declared that this was a shocking mistake given the amazing success of 'Saturday Night Fever'. Nevertheless, Boz has done okay!!
