Moment at San Monique:
Long Meg and Her Daughters is a Bronze Age stone circle near Penrith in Cumbria, North West England. One of around 1,300 stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, it was constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from 3,300 to 900 BC, during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age. The stone circle is the sixth-biggest example known from this part of north-western Europe, being slightly smaller than the rings at Stanton Drew in Somerset, the Ring of Brodgar in Orkney and Newgrange in County Meath.
It primarily consists of 59 stones (of which 27 remain upright) set in an oval shape measuring 100 m on its long axis. There may originally have been as many as 70 stones. Long Meg herself is a 3.6 m high monolith of red sandstone 25 m to the southwest of the circle made by her Daughters. Long Meg is marked with examples of megalithic art including a cup and ring mark, a spiral and rings of concentric circles.

I was excited to see the Red-headed Woodpeckers returned to my neighborhood for a sixth year... Unfortunately they didn't stay to nest and moved on in about a week.
Underneath the 6th street bridge leading out to the Los Angeles Aqueduct (Viaduct) which unites the Boyle Heights community to the east and the Arts District and Downtown (DTLA) to the west.
Erected in 1932, the 6th Street Viaduct Bridge became an icon, winding up in movies such as Terminator, The Mask, Repo Man, SWAT, Grease, Armed and Dangerous, Batman, and many others. It has also been featured in numerous music videos (Madonna, INXS, Bruno Mars, Kanye West) and television shows. You will even see it if you play Grand Theft Auto. In 1986, this Hollywood icon was entered on the National Register of Historic Places.
Despite its historical status, the bridge was closed for demolition and replacement last month due to concerns over seismic instability. Demolition began just 5 days ago (5 days after this photo was taken).
And here is the future of the bridge:
Got this LE shot of Sixth Avenue in downtown Pittsburgh at the blue hour. Tried to capture the light trails from the traffic and the old architecture from the buildings in this shot.

Zoom in to view the odd spacing and sizing of windows on the rear left hand side of Trident 3Bs. The fourth and sixth windows from the rear were smaller-sized than the others!
Sixth image in my current series featuring single birds...
I caught this Willet in mid-flight, with a crashing Lake Michigan wave frothing in the background.
This was one of about 50 Willets that stopped by our shore to rest and feed for a day or two during their migration northward.
The Belpre Industrial Parkersburg Railroad Marietta Turn crosses the former CSX/B&O St Louis Main bridge over the Ohio River, headed from Belpre, Ohio back into Parkersburg, West Virginia, less than a mile from the High Yard.
The moment of completion.
As to Biblical lore, after this moment, life was granted on this planet.
A morning in December with Carlo Olegario and Colin Bates on the South Coast shooting what seemed to be creation! Enjoy the shot I love this one!!! I think I might actually put this on my wall!!
Another lie--I said I'd stop at photo #4 of this particular perfume bottle--this is now the 6th one (hence the title).
Proof that you don't even have to leave your computer desk to take photos. I shot this the other night right in front of my computer using the light from my monitor and overhead fluorescent lamps.
I'll be back later to catch up on your streams.
Less than a mile from the Logan depot, the Cache Valley Local rolls northward along Sixth West street through an industrial park.
At this location, the right of way (or is it fright of way?) flips to the east side of the two lane road, making passage a bit of a nail biter for the engineer and conductor. Flashing lights would certainly help.
Sixth build in my Iron Builder round against Kit using the Friends Horse Saddle in dark azure. The seed part was used 18 times.
This also serves as my final entry in Vignweek 2022 for the prompt Classic/Star Wars, revisiting the trash compactor escape scene in Aquanauts style.
My sixth image on explore (16/05/2016) reaching No. 166!
Wollaton Hall, backlit by the Winter sun, on a snowy day in Nottingham.
Built in the 1580's for Sir Francis Willoughby, Wollaton Hall was designed by Robert Smythson, (who also built Hardwick Hall and Longleat), and is built from ancaster stone, from Lincolnshire. The Willoughbys had originally become rich though the ownership of coal mines, but as the coal began to run out, the family fortunes suffered. The hall fell into disuse in the late 19th century, and was bought from the by Nottingham Council and re-opened in 1925 as a museum. Recently, it featured as the new Wayne Manor in the final part of Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy, The Dark Night Rises.
Taken with a Nikon D40, fitted with a Nikkor AFS DX 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6G II lens, and processed in Picasa, GIMP, and Photoscape.
The Sixth fall,indeed, is one of the series of seven falls in Shir Abad Village which is a tourist magnet. This village is in Khan Bebin city in Golestan Province in the North of Iran

Yesterday at lunch time, as the snow came steadily down, I snapped a quick shot of Sixth Ave here in Manhattan.
Laura was kind enough to humor me and hold the umbrella as I waited for the right moment to snap the shutter - and before all those taxis ran us down!
Nope, we ain't in Saint Lucia anymore!
