Gazing at the Temple of Poseidon from a hotel window and thoughtfully sipping the God's nectar while reading Lord Byron's poems ...
Place me on Sunium's marbled steep,
Where nothing, save the waves and I,
May hear our mutual murmurs sweep;
There, swan-like, let me sing and die;
Here comes a video to see what my camera couldn't catch ...

We have a few Baltimore Orioles coming to our backyard this year. They keep coming almost daily which is a treat for us. They now feel somewhat comfortable with us sitting on the deck and they will perch in our taller cedars to watch us before they go to the feeder. The name for these birds apparently comes from the resemblance to the black and orange colors of Lord Baltimore’s coat of arms. Eventually, most of the birds will be renamed in the next few years. That is the plan. I wonder what name he will have next.
Vintage Carriages Trust Museum, Keighley, West Yorkshire. Exhibit dedicated to the 1970 film, The Railway Children. The small four wheeled locomotive 'Lord Mayor' (built in 1893) was used to promote the film in photographs but did not actually feature in it.
The "Lord of Darkness" strikes again! HA!
I saw on one of the Nikon sites that someone posted that title to go along with the D3S, and I suppose it fits me and what I like to photograph at Disney very well. ;-)
Yes I posted a similar shot of this scene a while ago, but this is a completely different frame, and if you look at it large you will see just how sharp this shot is along with some amazing details, especially with the ghost on the right.
Thanks for looking. Oh, BTW...this was NOT a ride stoppage! I shot this while the Doom Buggy was moving. :-D

I believe these must be Anemone coronaria St Brigid 'Lord Lieutenant' (Double Poppy Anemone) which I just discovered today at the Christchurch Botanic Gardens. Quite a different petal structure from the other single Anemones (also Anemone coronaria) I recently posted from Mona Vale, so more creative possibilities.

The wharf in Coupeville Washington was built in 1905 to export grain produced on Whidbey Island. The town sits on Penn Cove, a sheltered bay that provided a safe, sheltered harbor during the early settlement of the area. In 1792 Capt. George Vancouver named the harbor in honor of, as he wrote, “a particular friend.” It is thought that the person honored was either John or Richard Penn, both of whom were grandsons of William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania.
Before European settlement, 3 permanent villages inhabited by the Lower Skagit People were located around Penn Cove. The largest village called at bəc̓adᶻali, or “snake place" occupied the site of present day town of Coupeville.
Cmdr. Charles Wilkes of the US Navy charted the small bay in 1841. Wilkes was the American born great nephew of the former Lord Mayor of London John Wilkes. He led US Expeditions to the South Pacific (including Antarctica) and Puget Sound. He was an important and controversial naval leader during the Civil War and ended his career with the rank of Rear Admiral (retired).
In 1850 Issac Neff Ebey became one of the first non-native American settlers and farmers in the area. Others soon followed and made land claims as provided by the Donation Land Act of 1850. Also, in 1850 Captain Thomas Coupe laid out a town on the shores of Penn Cove which today bears his name, Coupeville. It became the center of commerce for the Island, an important port, and during the late 1800s, home to many active and retired sea captains and mariners.
The wharf is a contributing property to the Central Whidbey Island Historic District which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. To better protect the unique history and landscape, Coupeville and its wharf was included in Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve in 1978. This one-of-a-kind unit of the National Park System preserves and protects the historical record of the exploration and settlement of central Whidbey Island from 19th century to the present.

Lizard People through history:
Renaissance through the 19th century
As every child knows, an alien species of reptilians has long ruled over us in secret, taking the guise of humans and replacing them in key positions of power to ensure their continued rule over us. For many years, scorn and derision have been heaped upon the few erudite humans who have seen the truth and patiently tried to explain it to other, less enlightened souls. Now, through the help of AI, the true truth can emerge.
Yes, Lizard people once lived openly among us. It was only in the early 20th century that the reptilians started hiding their existence among us, taking the guise of humans. Witness them in their true glorious form in medieval ages through the late 19th century and the advent of photography. Wallow in the ugly but oddly beautaeous, reptilian, Truth.

Newburgh is a large stone-built village on the wide sandy estuary of the River Ythan, close to the point at which it is bridged by the A975. he origins of the village date back to 1261 when a charter was drawn up by Lord Sinclair establishing a settlement here. A little later it acquired the Chapel of the Holy Rood and St Thomas the Martyr in Inch Road. The Chapel is long gone, but the Udny Family Mausoleum which formed part of it can still be seen in the Holyrood Cemetery. art of the name of the original chapel also survives, in the imposing Holyrood Chapel on Main Street. This was originally built as a school in 1838, and the clock tower was added in 1892. The village itself developed as a centre for salmon fishing, and later as a small port. By the 1850s there was a steady traffic of boats and barges calling at the newly built quays on the River Ythan. And by the 1880s there was a small fleet of sailing vessels based here, alongside a dozen resident fishing boats. A little earlier, in 1828, Newburgh became the first port in Scotland to have a Lifeboat Station, then called the Shipwreck Institution. The RNLI, as the Institution became, based a lifeboat in Newburgh until 1961, when it moved to Peterhead. In the 1950s Newburgh remained an active port with quays and a mill. Much of its economic base had declined by 1970, but the corner was turned - as with so many settlements in north east Scotland - with the discovery of oil under the North Sea. Newburgh, with its attractive setting and within commuting range of both Aberdeen and Peterhead rapidly became a desirable place to live. Today's Newburgh is an active and thriving settlement. At its centre is the Udny Arms Hotel providing accommodation, great views over the River Ythan, and an excellent restaurant. Beyond the River Ythan lies one of the oddest landscapes in Britain. Forvie Sands comprises an area of dunes some three miles long and a mile wide. At its heart are the remains of Forvie Kirk, built in the 1100s. This is all that can now be seen of the village of Forvie, once a thriving community but buried by shifting dunes during a storm in 1413. www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/newburgh/newburgh/
Sands of Forvie Nature Reserve: www.visitscotland.com/info/towns-villages/forvie-national... Shifting sands and seabirds The stark beauty of empty sand dunes is complemented by the call of eider ducks, wafting like gentle gossiping across the Ythan estuary. With the constant shifting of the dunes, layers of history have come and gone, revealing the half buried remains of a twelfth century church. Bird life is plentiful and you can watch the summer acrobatics of diving terns or the determined stabbing of the carrot-coloured beaks of wading oystercatchers.

As you can see, if you open the link or have a look into your own bible, this isn't a story about people in distress, but a story about faith. I don't exactly like these hocus-pocus stories in the bible, but I like many details in this beautiful church, the Altlerchenfelder Pfarrkirche in the 7th district of Vienna, very much.

Lord Edward Street is a historically significant street in Dublin, opened in 1886 as part of a scheme to provide a more direct route between Dame Street and Christchurch Place.
Namesake: It is named after Lord Edward FitzGerald (1763–1798), an Irish aristocrat and revolutionary who was fatally wounded while resisting arrest for treason. FitzGerald is buried in the nearby St. Werburgh's Church.
Location: The street is particularly notable for its close proximity to Christ Church Cathedral, offering views of the iconic Gothic-Romanesque building.
Notable Buildings: The street features historic buildings with late 19th and early 20th-century architecture, such as the Lord Edward Pub (located on Christchurch Place) and the former Dublin Working Boys Home & Harding Technical School (now Kinlay House Hostel).
Well, at least I'm laughing, and if I can make just one person laugh, well, then I'm doing better than Tony Danza.
