A monochrome interpretation of the "Double reflections" image processed in TOPAZ B&W. In monochrome, the texture of the granite surface is much more apparent.
This was taken in Temagami ON. In this area, the biomass at the bottom of the pond makes the water look black and it provides nice reflections as a result. Temagami is a region in Northern Ontario, about five to six hours north of Toronto, well north of North Bay.
Well did you think I could go to Holy Island and not visit the Priory? Of course not. Here's the history.
Lindisfarne Priory on Holy Island was one of the most important centres of early Christianity in Anglo-Saxon England. It is still a place of pilgrimage today, the dramatic approach across the causeway adding to the fascination of the site.
St Aidan founded the monastery in AD 635, but St Cuthbert, prior of Lindisfarne, is the most celebrated of the priory's holy men.
From the end of the 8th century, the isolated island with its rich monastery was easy prey for Viking raiders. In 875 the monks left, carrying Cuthbert's remains, which after long wanderings were enshrined in Durham Cathedral in 1104, where they still rest. Only after that time did Durham monks re-establish a priory on Lindisfarne: the evocative ruins of the richly decorated priory church they built in c. 1150 still stand, with their famous 'rainbow arch' - a vault-rib of the now vanished crossing tower. The small community lived quietly on Holy Island until the suppression of the monastery in 1537.
Walking past the Queen Elizabeth Hall, I came across this window reflection, looking into a concert inside. I loved the combination of the group performing, superimposed with the reflection of the Embankment scenery and Hungerford Bridge.
The performance was part of a free event called Writings on The Wall featuring a number of bands. I did walk in during this performance which was actually quite good. I have included a photo in the comments from the exact opposite pov looking towards the same window from the inside.
This was The Samantha Durnan Band, if you are interested you can find them at www.myspace.com/samanthadurnanmusic
Enjoy the rest of the weekend, and thanks for your visit, comments and faves!
Only found in the Kafue Flats area of Zambia, Kafue Flats lechwe have long elegant legs and huge dark eyes. It is only the male Lechwe that have beautiful swept back horns. Kafue Flats lechwe typically live in swampy floodplains, they are extremely well adapted for this habitat with hooves that spread wide, allowing them to move easily in swampy conditions.

This image is a four image wide (landscape orientation) panoramic stitch of Loch Nah-Achlaise on Rannoch Moor in Scotland.
The shot was taken on the way home from a family visit - I had never seen water so still before this moment and have never seen any so still since then!

I took a quick walk through Bundek park, hoping for some inspiration. Inspiration came, but it was short-lived - just a bunch of dry branches and a whole lot of reflections. December 2018.
