Visual interpretation of Newton's 3rd Law of Motion.
From a series I'm working on - visual representation of the laws, theories and hypothesis that govern the universe.
Lawers Dam was constructed in 1951-6 as part of the Breadalbane Hydro-Electric Scheme. The dam is of massive buttress type, and measures 344m in length and 42m in height. It has been constructed across the S end of Lochan na Lairige, whose water level has been raised by 27m. The reservoir is fed by a system of tunnels and aqueducts from a 45sq km catchment area, and from it the water drops 415m to the Finlarig power station on Loch Tay.
My late husband Brendan always managed this drive through St Ives to park with panache and so does Jonathan but my brother in law did it once saying "never again " lol.....mind you this car is much prettier than ours tbh....Sue ;)
"It states that, retrospectively, "short" intervals of time tend to be overestimated, and "long" intervals of time tend to be underestimated."
It was the 19th of August, 1745, and the rain came sideways across the grey Atlantic skies. The sea beyond Ardnamurchan boiled with salt and storm, lashing the heathered coast as if to wash away the sins of an empire. Bonnie Prince Charlie stood beneath the dripping bracken, cloak soaked to the bone, midges thick in the air like powdered ash, stinging the skin with every breath.
Behind him, the hills rolled like a sleeping beast — the rugged soul of the Highlands — and before him, the Glen of Dalilea stretched towards the heart of Glenfinnan. These were the lands of the Gaels, aye, but also lands left raw and bitter by years of misrule. And now, as the Prince had just arrived from France, he could feel the fire rising in the glen, the kindling of rebellion whispering in every gust.
“They’ve bled us dry, Your Highness,” said old MacIain of Glenaladale, his voice rasping with rage and rain. “Taxes we cannae afford, laws made in far-off halls for folk that ken nothing of Highland life. Speak out, and they throw ye in the cells. Fly a saltire, and they call ye traitor. The crime runs wild, and justice runs cold.”
Charlie nodded, his jaw tight. “And the common folk?”
“They suffer, sire. Two-tier justice. The lords dine on roast venison while the crofters boil roots. Speak your mind and ye’re silenced. Immigrants brought in, handed gold, while our own bairns go barefoot.”
The prince glanced skyward, where the clouds wept like widows. In his heart, he felt the weight not just of his heritage but of something heavier: a people’s broken faith.
“They say this is the price of peace,” MacIain added bitterly. “But it’s no peace. It’s quiet surrender.”
Charlie turned then, eyes fixed on the slope where the clans were gathering. Ragged men, some with swords, others with scythes. Faces hardened by frost, by hunger, by years of being told they were lesser. But they stood straight, proud, and waiting.
There, upon the hill of Glenfinnan, the standard was raised.
The wind caught it like a cry — gold and white, the lion rampant defiant against the storm — and a shout rolled through the glen like thunder, echoing off the lochs and stones.
“We ride,” Charlie said, voice clear. “Not just for a crown, but for every voice silenced, every hearth left cold. We ride to take back a land that once was ours. We ride to Starmer’s England, and we ride to win.”
The bagpipes struck up a wailing note as men drew steel and boots hit mud. The rebellion had begun.
And somewhere deep within the storm, Scotland remembered herself.

Excuse me, have you seen any ununsual ongoings?
Unusual? As in things I wouldn't want to happen? No officer, nothing of the sort!
But you look like...
Definitely not, officer! We're honest, law avoiding citizens!
Toy Project Day 1852
Today is the start of a new law in England. Cats have to be micro-chipped so they can be identified & their owners contacted if necessary. Obviously Bella is law-abiding!
Not everyone agrees with the new law. But I am happy that cats can be returned to their homes if found, potential owners will know that a cat doesn’t have an owner so it can be adopted & if the worst happens an owner can be notified. Yes, chips & registrations can be expensive - but charities & some vets don’t charge for this, especially when it’s done as part of the neutering & vaccination routine with a young cat. The chip takes only seconds to insert - years ago I held Charlie while his was replaced & he just gave one squeak! Bella already had her chip when I adopted her, so I only had to complete a form to give her new address & my contact details.
Seasonal colours - happy Caturday.

The super maxi Law Connect had won the previous two Sydney to Hobart line honours. This year however, there were problems with its sails, and it finished second behind Comanche with a time of 2 days 5 hours 50 minutes and 40 seconds.
I owe it to www.capturesintime.co.uk for the inspiration of his image "Pentland Hills View"
or I would probably never have ventured into this spot. The ground was mostly frozen and I took my wellies, but there were still plenty of boggy bits to jump.
Scald Law is the highest point in the Pentland Hills, Robert Louis Stevenson's “Hills of Home".
The eucalyptus green colour on the façade was chosen to honour Colonel Light's garden city plan, as well as the native eucalypt and dry grass vegetation of the Adelaide Plains.
The sienna and ochre colours on the façade represent the colours of the Adelaide Plains and the arid hinterland.
The axis of 'the Opal' (the imposing copper structure) runs in a line to the exact position of a traditional Aboriginal (Kuarna people) meeting point in Victoria Square.
The skin is made out of copper and it’s pre-weathered into a patina green. The ageing process of the copper has been accelerated so this is its parent colour. It’s not a painted on finish.
Law is a vintage figure I've always wanted but never got around to buying. He came out after I had stopped collecting Joes, but as soon as I heard of him I wanted one. God knows why it took them so long to add an MP to the Joe team!
This is the Sonic Fighters version from 1990, he's a nice paint variation over the original.
now its a helmet law in Cambodia and this driver had put it on , but the other on the moto ?
Pyjamas works evryday in Cambodia , many peole have it all day
The new law in Cambodia says that a moto can only have 2 people onboard ;-)
At 285m Norman’s Law is the highest point in the north of Fife. Around the summit cairn are the remains of an Iron Age hill fort and settlement. This is a view looking north, towards the River Tay, with Dundee visible on the right of the image.
Very thankful for my father in law Ken who is 101 and 102 middle of December. I've been honored to know this man since I was 18 and what a man this guy is. But lately he's failing and his heart is wearing down and he's been falling and I don't know how much longer he can be by himself down in the woods. We've all got to make some hard decisions soon. God Bless him.
The historic Palace of Justice in Béziers on Place de la Révolution
Like the protagonist in Kafka’s parable of the doorkeeper, our protagonist waits in vain, (because the district court moved to the modern Cité judiciaire near the railway station in 2016).

Ben Lawers (Scottish Gaelic: Beinn Labhair) is the highest mountain in the southern part of the Scottish Highlands. It lies to the north of Loch Tay, and is the highest point of a long ridge that includes seven Munros. It is the highest peak in Perthshire, and is the tenth highest Munro in Scotland. Ben Lawers was long thought to be over 4,000 feet (1,219.2 m) in height; accurate measurement in the 1870s showed it to be some 17 feet (5.2 m) short of this figure

In 1943, only one in a hundred crofts in the Highlands had electricity. But in just a few decades, affordable electricity would transform the way people lived. Hydro power made this possible.
Lawers Dam is part of SSE’s Breadalbane hydro-electric scheme. It holds back Lochan-na-Lairige reservoir – the main storage area for the Lawers section of the scheme. This reservoir collects water from 45 sq km. From here, it travels by pipeline to Finlarig power station on Loch Tay.
The Breadalbane scheme centres on Loch Lyon, Loch Ear and Loch Tay. It contains three sections with seven main power stations. The Lawers section began producing power in 1956, with the entire scheme in place by 1961.
The vertical distance between Finlarig power station’s turbines and its water source at Lawers Dam is 415m. This used to be the highest ‘head’ of any SSE hydro-electric scheme until the commissioning of the Glendoe Hydro station. Finlarig discharges water into Loch Tay.
Lawers dam co-exists with the surrounding Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve. Red deer, ptarmigan and black grouse can be seen as well as water vole – one of the UK’s most threatened animals. The area is also internationally important for its rare alpine plants.
