Definitively completed in the Swabian period, the Cathedral of Cefalù, which became a World Heritage Site in 2015, can now also be visited in its towers.

 

Built starting in 1131, its Romanesque style is enriched by Arab influences, and its appearance is pure wonder.

 

It is also possible to climb its Norman towers, which are different from each other: one is the square-plan tower, with battlements in the shape of flames, which would symbolize the papal miter and the power of the Church; the other is the octagonal-plan tower with Ghibelline merlons which would instead pay homage to the royal crown and the temporal power.

Definitivamente completato in età sveva, il Duomo di Cefalù, divenuto dal 2015 Patrimonio dell’Umanità può essere ora visitato anche nelle sue torri.

 

Costruito a partire dal 1131, Il suo stile romanico è arricchito da influenze arabe, e il suo aspetto è pura meraviglia.

 

E’ possibile salire anche sulle sue torri normanne, diverse l’una dall’altra: una è la torre a pianta quadrata, con merli a forma di fiammelle, che simboleggerebbe la mitria papale e il potere della Chiesa; l’altra è la torre a pianta ottagonale con merli ghibellini che omaggerebbe invece la corona reale e il potere temporale.

  

Ik heb de Noordzee nog nooit zo blauw gezien als afgelopen maandag. Een onwezenlijke kleur voor de Noordzee. De lucht was strakblauw, maar bij de horizon zat een soort beige band.

Windows Spur Road. Arches National Park is a US National Park in eastern Utah. The park is located on the Colorado River 4 miles (6 km) north of Moab, Utah. It is known for containing over 2,000 natural sandstone arches, including the world-famous Delicate Arch, in addition to a variety of unique geological resources and formations.

 

The park is located just outside Moab, Utah.

Turret Arch through the North Window in the Arches National Park, looking at the Turret arch. I posted a variant of this image a while ago, but I actually like this one better. This view is quite well known. But it requires that you are there quite early. The other point is that it requires some climbing, which is not hard, unless you are burdened with a tripod and other equipment. So be prepared when you go for it.

Early morning along the Columbia River.

I will be away for a several days, taking my first flight since the start of Covid. See you the middle of next week.

This was taken on our first trip since the lockdown, about 13 miles away.

… The Lodge in Fitzroy Park sits bucolically between Hampstead and Highgate along the Heath.

Although three lines run to London from Dartford, nearly all freight uses the route via Sidcup which meets the mainline at Hither Green and then provides access to the South London Line via Lewisham. This is known as the Dartford Loop line.

 

A working that still operates in 2021 is pictured here. Cliffe, Angerstein Wharf and Dagenham all forward sea dredged aggregates by rail. Here, approaching New Eltham station is 7y94, the 10:00 Purley to Cliffe empties behind 33012 on 31st March 1988.

A North American Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum) munching on the bark of a willow shrub along the roadside in the agricultural landscape east of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

 

There are three subspecies of porcupine in Alberta based on their range distribution and colouration with this one falling under the Alaska subspecies.

 

It appeared to be trying to blend in with the shrub by not moving, but it did not work as the light colour of the guard hairs made it very visible.

The 2000 foot north east face of Tom na Gruagaich (Beinn Allligin) emerging from the swirling mist. It is a wonderful place at the best of times, but in these conditions it takes on a majestic quality. The mountains in these parts are simply amongst the best in Scotland, and I am privileged to have been able to visit them many times and have seen many of their moods. That moment wehn the mountan starts to emerge from the fog is quite special.

A North American Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum) is observed in an open field, not often on the ground, feeding on dried vegetation in the apsen parkland region north of Thorhild, Alberta, Canada.
