A shrine even to Romanticists Roslin Chapel achieved world renown by the Da Vinci Code which claimed it to hold the Holy Grail and thus making a once private medieval chapel the centre of absolute legend.

Today Apple named their new OS El Capitan. Couldn't be happier to have these legendary National Park monuments valued and promoted for world to know about them. Almost five years back I didn't even know about Yosemite which is before I arrived to the US. My ignorance. But if you lived in a country right on the other side of the globe of the United States, its was not that big of a surprise. But now Apple putting them on the 'Map' makes it easier for the people everywhere to know and admire these legends.
This is the tunnel view of the valley, with El Capitan on the left and the Half dome peeping right in the middle across the valley. This is a very popular spot in the park but you can never have enough of them! :)
A McDonnell Douglas/Boeing F-15E Strike Eagle from the 335th Fighter Squadron (335 FS) out of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina launches from the South EOR during a Red Flag 16-1 sortie. In 1991, During Operation Desert Storm, this aircraft (89-0487) was credited with downing an Iraqi Mil Mi-24 Hind helicopter in the air using a GBU-10 laser-guided bomb. In 2012, this aircraft became the first F-15 of any type to log over 10,000 hours.

Two legends, one shot.
Longtime Flickr friend and legend on the film circuit, here's Richard Pilon in a rare moment without a Leica in his hands. That day we had been on a photowalk to Rideau Hall in the New Edinburgh neighbourhood of Ottawa with Eric Delorme (emrold), and stopped for some refreshments at Tavern on the Falls on Sussex.
Ricklerocker (Richard Pilon) works in both film and digital, shooting with Leica, Rolleiflex, and Hasselblad cameras, and his main focus is documentary and street photography. Give his page a follow - you won't be disappointed!

There is a legend related to Háifoss waterfall. It goes like this: "An ogress lived in Háifoss (which used to be called Fossárfoss before it got its name in 1912). She lived on trout, which she caught in the waterfall. Once a teenage boy travelling with other travellers threw a rock into the river. That night the ogress went to the tent, where the travellers were sleeping, and tried to pull the teenage boy by his legs out of the tent. But his mates pulled him in the other direction by the upper part of his body. After a lot of tussle the ogress let the boy go and went away, but the boy was bedridden for a whole month from this maltreatment". (Translated from the Folklore of Jón Árnason).
Haifoss waterfall, situated near the volcano Hekla in the south of Iceland. The river Fossá, a tributary of Þjórsá, drops here from a height of 122 m. This is the second highest waterfall of the island.
I know that technically this probably isn't up to scratch, but it does somehow capture what this place feels like. The loneliness of hills, forested bogland.
Legend - Moeraki. 🇳🇿
Whether you subscribe to the Māori legend that sees these as ancient ‘eel baskets’, washed ashore after the sinking of the Arai-te-uru canoe, or the more recent scientific explanations of rock formation – I’m yet to find a single person who doesn’t find the Moeraki Boulders simply fascinating when they’re revealed by the ocean.
Embedded within the beach and surrounding cliffs on the east coast of New Zealand’s South Island, these 6-8ft wide natural sculptures are still forming, moving and eroding – presenting a landscape that shifts with time as well as the ebb and flow of the Pacific waves.
Catch the tide at the wrong time, and you’ll struggle to see any of them. Catch an approaching wave on this incredibly shallow beach, and you’ll find both you and your camera soaked to the core. Click the button at the right time, however, and you’re rewarded with one of the most serene views in the natural world.
