The best time to visit London is before the masses, this was the sunrise at 6am and only a few people to share it with (other photographers!!)
You never know what you're going to get when getting up at 3am but this sunrise as definitely worth the effort!
Pretty old stair in a small tower of castle Kaltenstein.

A bit of a classic but seeing as I was walking over Tower bridge I thought why not!!
Typically, as soon as I set up, no buses came along and more and more people stopped in front of me, but still, I'm reasonably happy with the result!
Nghinh Phong Tower is located at Nghinh Phong Square in Phu Yen. located on Nguyen Huu Tho beach in Ward 9, Tuy Hoa city. This place is a symbol for the city as well as the tourism architecture of Phu Yen Province. The tower work will be divided into two parts, each part will have 50 adjacent stone blocks. These stone blocks are the image representing 100 children in the legend, divided into two halves with the meaning "to the forest - to the sea".
The Głogów Tower is a remnant of the former Głogów Gate. It is a 6-storey building with a clock and numerous loopholes. It was built in the 15th century and was part of the city's defensive wall system. After 1770, the partial liquidation of the fortifications began.
In 1962, attempts were made to save the surviving fragments of the walls, sections of the walls and the tower were rebuilt.

Wieża Głogowska jest pozostałością po dawnej bramie Głogowskiej. Jest to budowla 6-kondygnacyjna z zegarem oraz licznymi otworami strzelniczymi. Została zbudowana w XV wieku i wchodziła w system murów obronnych miasta. Po 1770 przystąpiono do częściowej likwidacji umocnień.
W roku 1962 podjęto próby ratowania ocalałych fragmentów murów, odbudowano część murów oraz wieżę.

Perched on a hill above the village of Llanarthne, Paxton’s Tower looks out on the Towy Valley. Built over 200 years ago, the majestic tower is in fact a folly built in memorial to Admiral Lord Nelson and to impress the people of the valley.

I shoulda taken my tripod with me .....here's a shot of this special falls in Yellowstone. The trees cut off the rest of it.
"Approximately 1,000 yards (910 m) upstream from the creek's confluence with the Yellowstone River, the fall plunges 132 feet (40 m). Its name comes from the rock pinnacles at the top of the fall. Tower Creek and Tower Fall are located approximately three miles south of Roosevelt Junction on the Tower-Canyon road.
In August 1870, the Washburn-Langford-Doane Expedition camped near and explored the Tower Fall area for several days en route to Yellowstone Lake. In his 1871 report to Secretary of War Gustavus C. Doane, a member of the expedition described Tower Falls thus:
"Nothing can be more chastely beautiful than this lovely cascade, hidden away in the dim light of overshadowing rocks and woods, its very voice hushed to a low murmur, unheard at the distance of a few hundred yards. Thousands might pass by within a half mile and not dream of its existence; but once seen, it passes to the list of most pleasant memories. In the afternoon the remainder of the party arrived, having lost the trail on the previous day."
A well-known painting of the falls by Thomas Moran in 1871 helped persuade Congress to set aside Yellowstone as the world's first national park in 1872." Wikipedia
The Tower of the Winds or the Horologion of Andronikos Kyrrhestes is an octagonal Pentelic marble clocktower in the Roman Agora in Athens that functioned as a horologion or "timepiece". It is considered the world's first meteorological station. Unofficially, the monument is also called Aerides (Greek: Αέρηδες), which means Winds.
