Honfleur is a commune in the Calvados department in Normandy en.normandie-tourisme.fr/normandy-tourism-109-2.html in northwestern France. It is located on the southern bank of the estuary of the Seine across from le Havre and very close to the exit of the Pont de Normandie. Its inhabitants are called Honfleurais. It is especially known for its old, beautiful picturesque port, characterized by its houses with slate-covered frontages, painted many times by artists, including in particular Gustave Courbet, Eugène Boudin, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind, forming the école de Honfleur (Honfleur school) which contributed to the appearance of the Impressionist movement. The Sainte-Catherine church, which has a bell tower separate from the principal building, is the largest church made out of wood in France. The first written record of Honfleur is a reference by Richard III, Duke of Normandy, in 1027. By the middle of the 12th century, the city represented a significant transit point for goods from Rouen to England. Located on the estuary of one of the principal rivers of France with a safe harbour and relatively rich hinterland, Honfleur profited from its strategic position from the start of the Hundred Years' War. The town's defences were strengthened by Charles V in order to protect the estuary of the Seine from attacks from the English. This was supported by the nearby port of Harfleur. However, Honfleur was taken and occupied by the English in 1357 and from 1419 to 1450. When under French control, raiding parties often set out from the port to ransack the English coasts, including partially destroying the town of Sandwich, in Kent, England, in the 1450s. At the end of the Hundred Years' War, Honfleur benefited from the boom in maritime trade until the end of the 18th century. Trade was disturbed during the wars of religion in the 16th century. The port saw the departure of a number of explorers, in particular in 1503 of Binot Paulmierde Gonneville to the coasts of Brazil. In 1506, local man Jean Denis departed for Newfoundland island and the mouth of the Saint Lawrence. An expedition in 1608, organised by Samuel de Champlain, founded the city of Quebec in modern day Canada. After 1608, Honfleur thrived on trade with Canada, the West Indies, the African coasts and the Azores. As a result, the town became one of the five principal ports for the slave trade in France. During this time the rapid growth of the town saw the demolition of its fortifications on the orders of Colbert. The wars of the French revolution and the First Empire, and in particular the continental blockade, caused the ruin of Honfleur. It only partially recovered during the 19th century with the trading of wood from northern Europe. Trade was however limited by the silting up of the entrance to the port and development of the modern port at Le Havre. The port however still functions today. On August 25, 1944, Honfleur was liberated together by the British army - 19th Platoon of the 12th Devon's, 6th Air Landing Brigade, the Belgian army (Brigade Piron) on 25 August 1944.[1] and the Canadian army without any combat. en.normandie-tourisme.fr/articles/honfleur-278-2.html
According to the National Park Service, recent rates of erosion along parts of North Carolina's Outer Banks have been as high as 10 to 15 feet in a year.

Mille Miglia, 15. Mai 2009, SR 258 Via Alpe,
Viamaggio near Sansepolcro, Toscana, IT.
Ich fotografierte an einer tollen, bereits am Vortag ausgesuchten Stelle am Ende einer langen Bergab-Geraden, direkt vor einer scharfen Haarnadelkurve. Plötztlich, wie ein Blitz aus heiterem Himmel, war besonders lauter Motorenlärm zu hören. Gleichzeitig kamen DC im Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR (mehr als 10 Millionen EUR Versicherungswert!), Stirling Moss' Original-Siegerauto, und knapp dahinter Mika Häkkinen mit dem brandneuem, am Vortag erstmals in Brescia präsentierten Mercedes McLaren SLR Edition Stirling Moss mit hohem Renntempo auf der Geraden daher gerast. Das Foto zeigt den konzentrierten DC beim starken Abbremsen vor der Haarnadelkurve. Ich drückte reflexartig den Auslöser und schon waren die beiden ultra raren Super-Autos auch schon wieder hinter der anschließenden Kurve in Richtung Sansepolcro verschwunden. Der ganze Spuck dauerte nur wenige Sekunden. Mir erschien es wie ein Angriff zweier tieffliegender Kampfjets... Ein wirklich beeindruckendes und unvergessliches Erlebnis.

A photo taken on the return leg of our hike along the PR1 footpath through the mountains of Madeira. As can be seen most of the sections of track that offer sizeable declivities now have some degree of fencing to protect the unwary.
This really was a popular route and I guess that the authorities do have to content with more than their fair share of accidents and injuries so I cant really blame them. That being said it would have been so much better without the paving and fencing.

‘I was non-committal. Nowadays, one never knows who is a secret agent.’
(From: Julian, by Gore Vidal, 1964).
SHE emerges from the secret time portal and like a shadow SHE moves through the megacity’s aqueduct system, silently and deadly. Overhead the muffled sound of the metropolis when, unexpectedly, SHE encounters a fellow agent of the shadowy Mardie Industrial Complex moving in the opposite direction. It is Mission Sunday. Silently they pass each other, like ships in the night, a short nod and a discrete salute, and on they continue on their respective missions, their futuristic night vision goggles signaling goodbye and Godspeed. These are the true professionals, helping us to sleep soundly at night as we browse our Flickr feeds before bedtime. They are Major Tom and ….

From our developing, highly unstable and explosive series 'Série Noire'. Welcome to Megatropolis - raw, hungry, at dusk, at dawn, always on the edge of darkness - surreal, expressionist, ripe with the smell of danger and the scream of victims. This megacity is always ready to pose for a movie director, a starlet and a loaded gun. Film noir shot in hardboiled color and occasional B&W. You have been warned.

Our incipient web page:
I took a picture of Tommy, the steel sculpture on Seaham sea front two years ago, and have merged it with a picture of wild poppies I took earlier this year.
I think it important we remember our forefathers who served our country and gave their lives to protect our families, our nation, our traditions and our values. I've no time for those white and purple poppies. It was a human war . And it's the red poppy that symbolises the blood spilt in the torn up fields of the battlefields.
And I shall always respect the unselfish duty and sacrifice those men gave for our tomorrows.
in the winter the irrigation ditches flood the bog with water thereby protecting the plants from frost as well as providing an excellent place for ice skating.
For John and Jane...both gone from us too soon. They would have loved to sit here.
Check it out on black...thanks.

Looking up at some Red and White Pines in Algonquin Park this past December.Some of these trees were over 100 ft tall with a trunk of 5-6 feet across. This may not be significant for someone from the west coast, but in Ontario, the only place you would find this is in the oldest protected forest in the region. This is the only thing resembling what Ontario used to be hundreds of years ago before the Canadian logging industry took over.
