Morning clouds came up by lunch time, when we took Skyline Gondola ride, and we were rewarded by magnificent panoramic view to Queenstown, lake Wakatipu and Remarkables mountain range.
Do I need to say it was my birthday.. :)
Sorry for including the usually touristy postcard image but :-
a) I found a new view point that was high up, and not near the whale bones, looking at the view,
b) the afternoon light fell beautifully across the boats, harbour and view to the hills and
c) I thought those who may never get a chance to visit would like to savour this.
S'pose I should have added text to the image "Greetings from Whitby"
Explored (twice) #231 27/06/2011 and #171 28/06/2011
The iconic orange Staten Island Ferry! It is one of the best bargains in New York City. Round trip takes about 30 min to an hour and you have unbelievable views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty and to top it off it is absolutely FREE!!!

A rather pleasing scenic bus related Post Card which came to light during the last round of scanning. I regret that without reaching it out again, I've forgotten the location, but wherever it is, it looks mighty fine!
I presume the Mac Brayne's bus in shot is a AEC Regal III, though it could be a badge engineered Maudslay Marathon I suppose.

6x4lives challenge for January. Postcard to wish all my good friends a very "Happy New Year". The photo is poor - the felt is not really grubby!
Another in my now complete series of pretty, picture postcard shots of Newcastle. Normal service wil be resumed shortly with a black and white picture of the central motorway and a night time long exposure of a service station on the A1.
For now though, enjoy the magnificent Tyne Bridge and the buildings built beneath it.
Please do not add me as a contact without commenting or faving my photos. A non commenting contact is not what I desire and will be deleted. If you add me as a contact please feel free to make any thoughtful comment you wish. Faving a photo will be considered a comment. Thanks for understanding, sharing thoughts and ideas is what I would like to get out of flickr.
The view across The meadows is similar to how it was fifty years ago when I lived and worked here for a while. The path across here lead to the station and openair swimming pool

SEPTEMBER 23, 2014
Dear Mother Nature ...
I know how very busy you are, but just a reminder, ... today, September 23, is the "First Day of Autumn" ...
Not sure if you are aware, but it is still OVER 90 degrees F here, and HAS BEEN, every single day for the PAST 4 WEEKS IN. A. ROW. !!! ... and this week appears to have MORE of the same on your "schedule" ... per that world wide webby thing that is so popular these days, so that we may monitor your activities.
Please check your records, and if there has been an error, we fully understand, and won't be holding any grudges ... but as soon as you can get to this matter, it would be GREATLY appreciated ... by so many!
Thanks so much,
Concerned Residents of SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, U.S.A.

This was an interesting situation; in the center of the town where I live, there is a wonderful duck pond with great views. But because of the tight paths around it, there was no place to set up my models for a photo shoot; until now.
To do repair work on the nearby spillway, the town drained most of the water creating a fairly large mud flat. Boldly hauling my stuff on a luggage cart out onto the former bed of the pond, I set up the shot to include the town hall and the flowering flora.
As serendipity would have it, when I downloaded the photos, all of the images had the the look of postcards from the 1930's.
The only processing I did was filter it through the Kodacolor filter which muted the color palette. Plus I added the type to give it that old post card touch.
The convertible diecast car is a 1935 Chevrolet Standard Roadster by Danbury Mint. The 1932 Ford by The Franklin Mint can be seen on the right.
The beach where we spent much of our time swimming fishing and photographing during the final days of a 2 week holiday.
