Gacha apples (from Pakistan) are sweet, grainy, with a mild flavor and a thinner skin than most apples. Known for their firmness, crispness, and sweetness.

The remaining stones of an ancient Celtic roundhouse and Viking long house in the Isle of Man.
The Braaid is believed to have started as a stone circle site and later became a Norse farmstead set in a low valley, where good grazing and climate was likely to have existed. The site consisted of a Celtic stone roundhouse and two rectangular constructs of Norse origins, believed to be from Iron Age, with the earlier Neolithical or Bronze Age periods for the stone circle site not ruled out.
The site uniquely brings together buildings of Iron Age and Viking styles that were used together and survive to the present. It is the best above ground preserved site on the Isle of Man for a settlement from this period.

Union Pacific’s Skyline - Los Angeles export coal train squeals around the Barry Curve near Santaquin, Utah on May 21, 1989. Leading the 84-car train are C40-8s No. 9234, 9152, and 9233. New EMD SD60Ms will soon supersede these relatively new GE units on unit coal train movements out of Provo.
We see a whole lot of barns traveling the back roads of Virginia and West Virginia. There aren't too many of the round top version though.

Some photography expert told me that a few years ago - always turn round and look behind you - you may get a totally new perspective. Well - never more true here. We were facing east and mesmerised by the amazing sunrise in front of us and getting off a few shots. I turned round 180 degrees to face west and luckily witnessed this incerdible sky reflecting the sunrisee
Ravensbourne University Building, London, England
Another Open House London has come and gone last week, didn't seem that long ago I was down in the capital doing the same things last year.
My apologies for not getting my Open House photos uploaded sooner as I know some of you have been keen to see them but I have been so busy since coming back from Open House I haven't had chance to edit the photos until recently.
This is looking out from one of the portals within the Ravensbourne University building next to the O2, is the building with circles all over it, you can't miss it!
For the first time ever, the whole Open House London experience was a little disappointing. Don't get me wrong, some tours were excellent like this one at Ravensbourne where you got to know the finest detail of every part of the building but other places I visited were such a let down. For example Lloyds Register building. My girlfriend and I queued first thing to get in but still was around 30 mins and I was looking forward to seeing the modern part of the building. We were allowed in on opening time then to be ushered through a small art gallery and then to the older part of the building, there was no chance of seeing or photographing the Richard Rogers part of the building. Other places got cancelled at last minute, upon arriving at one venue for roof top tours we found a small sign to say that they had been cancelled!
Luck wasn't on my side with regard to pre book events this year so I wanted to really try hard at places that didn't need pre booking but another disappointment was to happen. We went to Somerset house to go on a tour of the building and no where in the guide said you had to pre book the tour. Upon arriving we were told the tour was fully booked, that word booked!! How is it fully booked when it was a first come first served basis? It seemed they were advertising the fact they were doing the your and normal visitors to Somerset House could go on it too as well as Open House visitors which I didn't think was right. We did manage to get on another tour which was the film tour, not my first choice by any means but was very enjoyable.
Sadly this year I have heard similar stories from other Open House visitors and photographers, don't get me wrong I still got a few good photos but felt that some of the tours were not as good as other years that I have been on.
