The Lighthouse stands out at Portland Bill. I love it out there. If the wind is blowing? It blows away the cobwebs!!
View from the balcony. Just messing around in BBC New Broadcasting House after dark.

Even on a cold and grey day, Macs Hotel, looking as proud as ever in the main (Bentinck) street in Portland, Victoria, Australia.
Portlandia's artist was Raymond J. Kaskey. The theme for the statue is; Lady Commerce, based on the City of Portland seal. She's made of hammered copper, weighs 6.5 tons and is 36 feet 10 inches in height. She was dedicated on October 8, 1985 and is still as beautiful today!
I was in Portland this morning to drop my daughter and her husband off at the airport and took advantage of that by visiting the harbor area. The sun had not yet appeared when I took this photo.
Self-Portrait Series I - Portland Portraits - 05 - Faces
1.3 Megapixel Samsung Camera Phone
This is from a series of close-up self portraits I took with my 1.3 megapixel camera phone in downtown Portland, Or, around 7 in the morning on Saturday, June 16th, 2007.
I liked the framing I made of my face in the window on this shot. The small head acts as a reflection of inner self, whereas the larger head is the outer shell of self. The expression seems to shift from the foreground 'real' face, upon which I seem to have a calm expression, to the reflected face in the window, upon which is a more intense and aggressive look.
Once again I am happy with the texture of the shirt.
The Portland wind farm is one of Australia's largest wind farms. Located on the coast of south-western Victoria near the city of Portland, it consists of four separate sites, all of which have been completed as of 2015. Completion of the entire 195 MW project was expected in 2011, at a capital cost of A$330 million.

A single bridge or multiple bridges as long as it bridges the gap then it’s good for this week.

This is a photo I shot at Portland Bill, the southernmost point of Dorset, UK. I must admit I had high hopes for it, as I remember I liked it already from the moment I "saw" the frame in reality and then into the camera's viewfinder. But I was kinda avoiding to process it as the light was too soft and the atmosphere too hazy and I knew it would take me lots of time to get where I wanted - if I ever managed to...
After some initial trials and failures a few days ago (that did show me though the right way to follow), yesterday I decided to go all the way and settle this in a "now or never" fashion. Took me a couple of hours to finish but I must say I'm quite pleased by the result, very close to what I had in mind as I took the photo.
Μια φωτογραφία που έβγαλα στο Portland Bill, το νοτιότερο σημείο του Dorset στην Αγγλία. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι είχα υψηλές προσδοκίες απ' αυτήν καθώς θυμάμαι ότι μ' άρεσε πολύ απ' την πρώτη στιγμή που "είδα" το κάδρο στην πραγματικότητα και κατόπιν στο σκόπευτρο της μηχανής. Απέφευγα όμως συνειδητά να ασχοληθώ μαζί της καθώς το φως της σκηνής ήταν υπερβολικά αντίξοο και η ατμόσφαιρα θολή και ήξερα ότι θα μου έπαιρνε πολύ προσπάθεια και χρόνο για να φτάσω στο αποτέλεσμα που είχα φανταστεί (αν τα κατάφερνα και ποτέ...)

Τελικά μετά από μερικές μάλλον αποτυχημένες αρχικές προσπάθειες πριν από μερικές μέρες (που όμως μου έδειξαν το δρόμο που έπρεπε να ακολουθήσω), χτες αποφάσισα ότι ήρθε η ώρα να ασχοληθώ σοβαρά και με πατριωτική έξαρση του στυλ "ή τώρα ή ποτέ" στρώθηκα στη δουλειά. Μου πήρε 2-3 ώρες για να τελειώσω αλλά ομολογώ ότι το αποτέλεσμα με ικανοποίησε και σίγουρα είναι πολύ κοντά σ' αυτό που "είδα" όταν πρωτοαντίκρισα την σκηνή.

Portland Head Light is a historic lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. The light station sits on a head of land at the entrance of the primary shipping channel into Portland Harbor, which is within Casco Bay in the Gulf of Maine. Completed in 1791, it is the oldest lighthouse in the state of Maine. The light station is automated, and the tower, beacon, and foghorn are maintained by the United States Coast Guard, while the former lighthouse keepers' house is a maritime museum within Fort Williams Park.
