Shot while dining outside in the Northern Liberties neighborhood of Philadelphia. Although outdoor dining is not unusual, we sat in a blocked off area of the street, arranged due to covid restrictions in the city. Ordering online and picking up our food through a window. An enjoyable meal in a unusual circumstance, capped off by a wonderful sunset.
Some liberties were taken....
Well, a lot of liberties. It bears only a minor likeness (mines the one on the bottom) so I lost the game but gained some PS and SL skills.
Btw, if you read that title, you just lost The Game!

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
I've taken some liberties with this piece of photo art. The lighthouse is of course the Low Head Lighthouse at the entrance to the Tamar River in northern Tasmania. The bronze sculpture which I call here "The Lighthouse Keeper" is in fact a piece of work by the late Irish sculptor, Jeanne Rynhart (1946-2020). I put them together because the colour palette seemed so complementary.
The bronze is in our personal collection, number 6 of just 250 of "The Old Seaman" cast at her County Cork studio. It is a delightful piece standing at 18cms high. Rynhart is most famous for the public sculpture of Molly Malone in Dublin (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molly_Malone), and of Annie Moore at Ellis Island in New York. In 1892 Annie Moore was the first immigrant to the United States to pass through federal immigrant inspection at the Ellis Island station in New York Harbor. www.history.com/news/remembering-annie-moore-ellis-island...
Sadly, Jeanne Rynhart passed away at the age of 74 just last year. www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/people/jeanne-rynhart-o...
A quick snap driving by in Northern Liberties.
"Brazilian artist Claudio Ethos and Spanish artist Ru8icon1 were in Philly for a couple of months. With support from Mural Arts Philadelphia (@muralarts) and the local community they painted multiple murals"
Anyone who knows this lighthouse at Pendeen will know it's spoiled by poles and power lines running down the length of the site, probably not for the purist but I had to edit them out.
Windows serving drinks and food orders at one of the many establishments in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia. New dining set up due to covid restrictions.
Couldn't resist the reference.
Some liberties were taken, obviously.

OK, lets be clear right up front: This photo has been altered. We have ALL stood at the Bartonsville bridge cursing the abomination that is the power pole which otherwise mars this perfect Vermont shot. So I took it upon myself to see if I *could* remove it through the magic of photoshop. I am fairly thrilled with the results. While I took some creative liberty, ultimately, it's still pretty dang cool.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Enjoy!
Liberty Place was one of the first of the new developments built alongside the city centre canals of Birmingham.
My 'While you were sleeping' project is starting earlier and earlier now. I had to leave home at 4:30am to get this one. I shudder to think what my alarm will be set for in a month or so's time
I have taken some liberties with the title (the color is more golden than yellow and the road is asphalt not bricks) but it captures my feeling when I drive down one of my favorite roads.
This is US Highway 385 between Marathon, Texas and the North Entrance to Big Bend National Park.
It is particularly handsome in the late afternoon with warm golden, light. The low clouds from a clearing storm add drama to an already interesting scene. This road passes through some intriguing geology even before you enter the Park. It is almost as if it is trying to prepare you for the wonders that await you inside the Park.
The low hills on the left of the road are folded and thrusted sediments of the Caballos Novaculite formation. These same rocks out crop in Arkansas but then dive below the surface and tunnel around the old Pre-Cambrian rocks of the Llano region only to pop back out near Marathon. They appear once more in the Big Bend Ranch State Park in the center of the Solitario Dome.
The flat-topped mountain to the right is Santiago Peak, an extinct Tertiary Volcano. It is hundreds of millions years younger than the rocks on the left but forms a prominent landmark visible throughout the Big Bend region.
The lower mountains to the left and right of Santiago Peak are the topographic marker of the Laramide Thrust System that extends all the way north to the Front Range of The Rockies.
Finally, Big Bend National Park with its beautiful vistas lies just down this road like Oz beckoning us onward on our journey

The General Charter of Jewish Liberties, known as the Statute of Kalisz was issued by Boleslaw the Pious, September 8, 1264. The Statute granted wide-ranging and unprecedented legal rights to the Jews of Poland, including freedom of worship, and the right to trade and travel. Arthur Szyk reminded both Poles and Jews in the 20th century of this historic precedent through his seminal work, a visual interpretation of the text Statute of Kalisz (published in 1932), executed in the style of a medieval illuminated manuscript; the 45 paintings were exhibited widely in Poland. This Polish and French title page or frontispiece shows Casimir III the Great enthroned.

Taking liberties with the actual wording on the door just to amuse myself. This is the defunct Knights of Pythian Hall in Weatherford, TX
I’ve been stuck here in this town, if you could call it that, a year or two / I never do what I’m supposed to do / I don’t even need a name anymore / When no one calls it out, it kinda vanishes away / No one gives a damn about the things I give a damn about / The liberties that we can’t do without seem to disappear like ghosts in the air / When we don’t even care, it truly vanishes away (Jason Isbell)
