Il Sas de Pütia (detto anche Sasso delle Putia e in tedesco Peitlerkofel) è una montagna delle Dolomiti alta 2.875 m. La cima si trova all'interno del parco naturale Puez Odle, nei pressi del Passo delle Erbe, in Alto Adige, all'incrocio tra la val Badia e la val di Funes.
La cima è famosa, oltre per il panorama a 360 gradi che offre, grazie al suo isolamento, anche per la semplice via ferrata che consente di raggiungerla. Infatti spesso, a chi non ha mai provato l'esperienza di una via ferrata, viene consigliato di percorrere questo itinerario.

Memorial to the fallen heroes of the Special Air Service often referred to as the SAS. The SAS is a 'special forces' unit of the British Army.
The stained glass window and sculpture together known as 'Ascension' was dedicated in 2017 in Hereford Cathedral.
Taken specifically for the Window Wednesdays group on Flickr.
Plenty of reading about the SAS is available on Wikipedia - and some interesting info about Ascension is on the Hereford Cathedral website.

Land Rover Owner International Show 2018, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England, United Kingdom, on Saturday 15th September 2018.
About this photograph.
The soft stuffed toy on a military Land Rover is the Pink Panther, a fictional animated character from The Pink Panther movie series.
Those who knows something about the British military could understand what it is about. But if you don’t know, I’ll explain. This is in reference to a series of military Land Rover painted in pink and used by Britain’s SAS.
The Special Air Services, best known by its abbreviation SAS, is a special forces unit of the British Army formed during the Second World War. They specialise in behind-the-lines raids and covert reconnaissance, some years after the end of WWII, they evolved to include counter-terrorism and hostage rescue.
In the photo, the Pink Panther is used as a reference to the vehicles they use, which is a Land Rover 1968 Series IIA, 109” wheelbase vehicle, register 10 FG 57.
The reason they were painted in that shade of pink was because the colour was found to be most effective camouflage for the operations carried out in Oman, hence leading to the nickname of Pink Panthers.
The whole Land Rover can be seen in one of my photos here www.flickr.com/photos/132335712@N05/50104457193/
About the event.
Land Rover Owner, often abbreviated as LRO, is a British monthly magazine aimed for the Land Rover enthusiasts. Sometimes the title is subtitled as Land Rover Owner International. The magazine is published by a company based in Peterborough, United Kingdom, and had been publishing the magazine for over 30 years.
The magazine would host an annual Land Rover show, known as Land Rover Owner International Show followed by the year the show is being hosted. The show is mostly hosted at the East of England Showground on the east outskirts of Peterborough.
The show would feature a Live Action Arena, where various Land Rovers would drive around the arena, while customised and modified Land Rovers would show their off-road capabilities over a rough ground in the middle of the arena. Included in the show are Club Stands, displaying various Land Rovers, which are often members of various Land Rover organisations (For example: South West Land Rover Club, Wales Land Rover Club, Ladies Land Rover Club, etc., in additional to G4 Challenge, Camel Trophy, RNLI, etc.). There would be stalls selling spare parts, merchandises, food and drinks, etc. Plus some funfair and events for the kids.

You are free to comment for yourself with your own words, but please do not use what I call Canned Comments which are the infamous copy-and-paste-comment-codes. Those are seen as adverting the groups, rather than saying something about my photos, thus counts as “spam” and therefore will be deleted.

Sás Creek (Sauce Creek in its anglicised form) is a 750m-wide bay backed by very steep 300 metre cliffs. Sás means a trap with a noose, and it's a pretty appropriate name. A place more hostile to human habitation would be hard to imagine. Despite that, almost unbelievably, three families farmed on a flat piece of land at the base of the cliffs during the 19th century.
The last family left the bay in 1910, when, reportedly, a local midwife fell to her death on her way down the cliffs to deliver a baby. They are incredibly steep, and it's hard to imagine people regularly making their way up and down to get in and out.
It's near Brandon Creek on the Dingle Peninsula, from where St. Brendan reputedly set sail on his voyage that many say included a 'discovery' of America.
This modern building replaces the 1960s brutalist glass and concrete one , that had fallen into disrepair.
Are we just replacing like for like? Although much more pleasing to the eye, will we still feel the same in 50 years time.
The original designs of James Craig's Square have all but gone. Elsewhere n the new town 200 year old buildings still stand magestically and are greatly admired.
What have today's architects forgotten about longevity?
