I drove up to Glen Etive yesterday morning just as the sun came over the hill on my right. Decided to climb down into the valley for this shot.
St. Nikolai, Greifswald
"With its almost 100 meter high tower, the medieval brick Gothic church towers over the Hanseatic city of Greifswald. From its viewing gallery you have an impressive view over the old town to the island of Rügen. [...]
Church construction began as early as the middle of the 13th century and the hall church was enlarged to a basilica during the construction period in the 14th century. In 1456 the Greifswald University was founded in the church. [...]
As in many northern German cities, the Gothic brick church bears the name of Saint Nicholas of Myra (around 285 - around 350), who was very popular as the patron saint of seafarers and merchants in the Middle Ages."

Eigentlich bin ich ja im Urlaub eher in Norddeutschland unterwegs. Da ist das mit den Sonnenuntergang ja recht einfach. Aber hier in den Alpen ist die Sonne ja schon eher hinter den Bergen verschwunden. Am letzten Abend bin ich dann noch früh genug zu dem bekannten Fotospot gegangen und habe noch etwas von dem schönem Licht eingefangen.
St James is a small, tranquil church on the outskirts of Oddingley village, surrounded by beautiful Worcestershire countryside. An earlier wooden church was first mentioned in 1288. In the 15th century the wooden construction was replaced with the current stone building, constructed from limestone that was probably quarried nearby. Originally there was no tower, but the wall at the back of the nave was removed and a tower introduced in the 17th century.
The church is the final resting place of many souls, most famously the Reverend Parker, the village parson who was gruesomely murdered nearby in 1806. The hunt for his killer gripped the attention of the nation, but the case remained unsolved for nearly three decades before the truth was, at last, revealed…

When your job demands working outside in very cold weather, it's nice to have a warm office on site.
St Andrews Castle is a ruin located in the coastal Royal Burgh of St Andrews in Fife, Scotland. The castle sits on a rocky promontory overlooking a small beach called Castle Sands and the adjoining North Sea. There has been a castle standing at the site since the times of Bishop Roger (1189-1202), son of the Earl of Leicester. It housed the burgh’s wealthy and powerful bishops while St Andrews served as the ecclesiastical centre of Scotland during the years before the Protestant Reformation. In their Latin charters, the Archbishops of St Andrews wrote of the castle as their palace, signing, "apud Palatium nostrum." Quoted from Wikipedia
