A very cold afternoon at The Point, Portsmouth, England.Too cold for a beer so I went to The Canteen by the Round Tower and enjoyed a very good caffe latte and some cake instead of going to the Still & West pub which is pictured.HSS.
Met up with Adam Randell at Point Cartwright. We had hoped for a few more clouds but maybe next time. There are some amazing rock formations on the headland.

Some description in addition: you never know what awaits you on another side of the world. Departing point from/to was a journey to the place which I intuitively chose and where I got a lesson of life. Probably, this choice was mutual in respect of the law of attraction. The lesson has been accepted, and I back home not the same as I was before...
Setting up for this one and a lady walked past... coffee in hand, enjoying the quiet and the moment, "Morning", was just a murmur. Fond memories of this place, years ago I did some alterations to the lighthouse.... 12 hour days... but good ones.
19th of June, South Wales UK coast. I took this picture today morning. I rode my bicycle to the lighthouse this morning, and I found lovely lights and fantastic atmosphere over the High. It’s been absolutely lovely 😊 with my iPhone 7
For those of you who are not American. This is where the Railroads from the East and West met, and connected our great country by rail.
The mill is located in Cedar Point, Kansas.
Here's the link I found about this property can be seen here: kansastravel.org/drinkwatermill.htm.
I can't say "abandoned" here, but from my POV it looks like it is abandoned. If you are familiar of this place, please leave the comment below.
From my perspective, I am not 100% happy with this picture. I think it'd be best if I happen to be at this location in the morning, where the sunshine'd hit the side of the building, with no overexposure. I got there was like 2:30 where the sun was located south-southwest of this place, and it was overexposure from where I shot, so I have to change the set to avoid the overexposure in the background, caused this building looked darker. I felt so struggled with that. But I am glad I have the Lightroom to make it looked better ... but still ... I am not 100% happy with it.

The Alki Point Light is an active aid to navigation located on Puget Sound's Alki Point, the southern entrance to Seattle's Elliott Bay, King County, Washington. It is listed as Alki Point Light number 16915 in the USCG light lists.
The first, unofficial, light established at Alki Point was a kerosene lantern said to have been hung on the side of a barn in the 1870s by farmer and property owner Hans Martin Hanson. In 1887, the United States Lighthouse Board recognized the need for an official light and placed a lens-lantern atop a wooden post at the point. As Hanson remained the property's owner, he was assigned to be lightkeeper at a salary of $15 per month.
Hanson's son Edmund sold the point to the government in 1910. By 1913, the present structure comprising a 37-foot (11 m) octagonal brick tower with lantern and gallery, attached to a
1-story brick fog signal building, was complete. It is the twin of Point Robinson Lighthouse on Maury Island, built two years later.
The tower held a fourth order Fresnel lens that was visible at no less than 12 miles (19 km). Other site improvements included two residences for the lighthouse keepers. In 1962, the original Fresnel lens was replaced by a modern optic device (VRB-25 aerobeacon). The station was automated in 1984. Following modernization, the principal keeper's quarters became the home of the Commander of the Thirteenth Coast Guard District.
The active light station remains in the hands of the U.S. Coast Guard. Tours are periodically offered by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.

Ja, das ist er, der letzte Blick in die Berge. Mein eigentliches, das Grasköpfl, das wäre noch weiter, irgendwo da rechts oben, aber, wie gesagt, dem Hang rechts vor mir, dem habe ich nicht recht getraut. Was ich erreichen wollte, das habe ich erreicht: Sonne, frische Luft, eine Auszeit vom anstrengenden Verwandtschaftsbesuch 😉, ein wenig Sport, ein klein wenig Abenteuer und so manch schönes Foto.
Im Hintergrund, etwa in Bildmitte, das ist der Schafreuter, auch Schafreiter genannt (2.102 m).

Well, how would you look at Osborne House, the private residence Victoria and Albert had built for themselves around 1850 and in Italianate style on the Isle of Wight? A place of calm where they would recover from the strenuous business of being Queen and representing the royal and quite imperial first family of what then was a world power. I find the boar, this symbol of wilderness and ferociousness (the pig, profoundly unacceptable in some traditions), quite adequate. After all, imperial rule and colonialism were brutal in essence. But then, you would perhaps expect me to say this because I am an old republican. In this matter, one can have many points of view. Fuji X100F.
