The Royal Crescent is perhaps the most famous place in Bath, built in 1767-1774 by John Wood the Younger. The exterior today remains very much what it always was. In the beginning this was a very fancy address, but as the social status of Bath diminished so did the status of the inhabitants here (though that is not to say it still wasn't fancy). Eventually some of the houses were split into flats to more suit modern tastes and needs. There is also offices and a 5 star hotel - and number 1 is a museum.
The first inhabitant of this address was a Henry Sandford, an MP, who lived here to his death in 1796. The house is now turned into a museum to show how it might have looked like when Sandford lived there - it had been bought in 1967 Bernard Cayzer and he donated it to the Bath Preservation Trust (including money for preservation and to furnish the place in a suitable manner).
The row of houses is today considered one of the best examples of Georgian architecture preserved in Britain.

Gin by Tanqueray No 10. Not a reference to our current dire political system, but that is enough to turn anyone to drink.
47.3% ABV @ ISO 1000. :-)
From Expert Reviews:
"This very-small-batch London dry gin is citrussy, fresh and full-bodied; arguably, it’s the best martini gin around. Made from pink grapefruit, orange and lime, as well as chamomile flavours and other botanicals including coriander, angelica and liquorish, it’s named after Charles Tanqueray, who made the world’s first gin back in 1830, later creating this one which is distilled four times. It’s the only gin in the world-renowned San Francisco Spirits Hall of Fame, which tells you all you need to know about its standing in the world of spirits. A magnificent gin."

This week's been about Soccer and Marching Band. Number 6 came about the other night while I was processing some soccer game shots for a friend. Number 6 is the daughter of a friend and a fantastic soccer player. I processed a few shots but wanted something a little special, maybe a little different. This shot caught my eye and off I went!!!! I printed on Hahnemuhle, Baryta and gave her the print, we were happy. 10-23 216

A number of rivers flow into the Moray Firth, including the River Ness, the River Findhorn and the River Spey. Various smaller firths and bays are inlets of the firth, including the Cromarty Firth and the Dornoch Firth. The Pentland Firth has its eastern mouth at the Moray Firth's northern boundary.
The Moray Firth is effectively two firths, the Inner Moray Firth 57°33′N 04°09′W, which was traditionally known as the Firth of Inverness, and the Outer Moray Firth which is more open North Sea water. The name "Firth of Inverness" is rarely found on modern maps, but extended from the Beauly Firth in the west, to Chanonry Point in the east.
The Moray Firth is visible for considerable distances, including a long range view from as far to the east as Longman Hill.[1] From Buckie, on a clear day it is possible to see Wick in the far north of Scotland more than 80 km (50 mi) away. From Lossiemouth it is possible to see the hills of Caithness and the hills are easily identified, one being Morven and the other being Scaraben. From Burghead, the white mass of Dunrobin Castle can just be made out in the distance on a very clear day; from Nairn, the two red bands on the Tarbat Ness Lighthouse around 30 km (20 mi) away, can be seen with binoculars.
The Great Channel in the Inner Moray Firth, was dredged by engineers in 1917 for the safe passage of ships that wanted to avoid the long and dangerous passage around the north of Scotland, by transiting the Caledonian Canal. The Channel went from the entrance of Munlochy Bay to the Meikle Mee Starboard Hand Mark, but was not maintained and filled in very quickly.
Number 41 for 52 Flowers of 2015.
She is definitely one of the very strongest and most reliable roses I have ever grown, and is always healthy and vigorous,
Bred at Harkness and widely available, I heartily recommend it to anyone looking for a good wall or arch plant.
One of the keys to shooting Epic Landscape Photgraphy is exalting the photograph's soul via golden ratio compositions, thusly wedding the art to the divine proportion by which life itself was designed and exalted.

Greetings flickr friends! I am working on several books on "epic photography," and I recently finished a related one titled: The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Why the Fibonacci Numbers Exalt Beauty and How to Create PHI Compositions in Art, Design, & Photography: An Artistic and Scientific Introduction to the Golden Mean .

The Golden Ratio also informs the design of the golden revolver on all the swimsuits and lingerie, as well as the 45surf logo!
The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Dr. E’s Golden Ratio Principle: The golden ratio exalts beauty because the number is a characteristic of the mathematically and physically most efficient manners of growth and distribution, on both evolutionary and purely physical levels. The golden ratio ensures that the proportions and structure of that which came before provide the proportions and structure of that which comes after. Robust, ordered growth is naturally associated with health and beauty, and thus we evolved to perceive the golden ratio harmonies as inherently beautiful, as we saw and felt their presence in all vital growth and life—in the salient features and proportions of humans and nature alike, from the distribution of our facial features and bones to the arrangements of petals, leaves, and sunflowers seeds. As ratios between Fibonacci Numbers offer the closest whole-number approximations to the golden ratio, and as seeds, cells, leaves, bones, and other physical entities appear in whole numbers, the Fibonacci Numbers oft appear in nature’s elements as “growth’s numbers.” From the dawn of time, humanity sought to salute their gods in art and temples exalting the same proportion by which all their vital sustenance and they themselves had been created—the golden ratio.
Ansel Adams is not only my favorite photographer, but he is one of the greatest photographers and artists of all time. And just like great artists including Michelangelo, Monet, Degas, Renoir, Leonardo da Vinci, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Botticelli, and Picasso, Ansel used the golden ratio and divine proportions in his epic art.
Not so long ago I discovered golden regions in many of his famous public domain his 8x10 aspect ratio photographs. I call these golden harmony regions "regions of golden action" or "ROGA"S, as seen here:

And too, I created some videos highlighting Ansel's use of the golden harmonies. Enjoy!

More golden ratio and epic photography composition books soon! Best wishes for the Holiday Season! Dr. Elliot McGucken :)
Possibly one of the few decent sunsets left before the harshness of winter strikes.
It's going to be a cold one this year in South Australia i feel.
Well the Final YouTube video is up and live at the channel feel free to pop over and check it out.
I finish my Lake District adventure in Windermere then on the way home had over to Fleetwood where the carcasses of many shipwrecks scatter the landscape thanks Chris
Für mich wäre Kopenhagen die Nummer 1 :)
"Most liveable city: Helsinki
Helsinki claims the number 1 spot in Monocle’s 2011 Quality of Life survey, which ranks the top 25 cities in the world to call home. Rising from fifth position in 2010, Helsinki outperformed Zürich at number 2 and Copenhagen at number 3 to claim the mantle as the world’s most liveable city."
Erie Mining caboose No. 1 brings up the rear of a 96-car pellet train headed for Taconite Harbor. EMCO's original cabooses were bay-window but were converted to extended vision as shown here. Erie was an early adopter of EOT devices so it wouldn't be much longer after I took this shot that pellet trains would operate sans caboose.

It took me 12 hours from the Bay Area down to Santa Barbara. The question is not whether to stop every 20 miles. It is more like whether to stop every 5 miles. Or less. Or you miss another beautiful spot.
Number 1 in my series Project 52. An ongoing project for 52 weeks. Every week 1 image. All self portraits.... Hope you will enjoy the ride!
