I went for a wonderful walk in the Lake District on Tuesday with a few friends. The weather was slate grey skies (typical weather for the lakes), but the banter and views were excellent.
This is a view of the amazing snow covered fell called Wetherlam which is 2,502 ft. It is the most northerly of the Coniston Fells, the range of fells to the north-west of Coniston village; its north-east slopes descend to Little Langdale. Little langdale tarn can be seen in the bottom of the valley.

City view of Embarcadero during the morning sunrise warm light with the long exposure to smooth the water in day light. You may still the light reflects from the buildings. This is the view from Pier 14. One of my favorite spot to take the city view picture in weekend when I have time :)
Walking through the countryside near Delft with my son, we passed this art project 'The Chairs', consisting of several chairs on staircases to enjoy the polder area from a 3.5-metres high perspective.

Mehtaplı bir gecede Tophane, İstanbul
"Boğaziçi mehtabının en güzel olduğu aylar, Temmuz, Ağustos, bazen de Eylül ayıdır. On üç, on dört ve on beşinci günlerde eğer hava uygunsa halk deyimiyle 'tepsi gibi olan' ay, Boğaziçi'ne akseder. Hemen hemen her bölgesinden aşağı yukarı görülmesine rağmen özellikle Bebek'te, Kanlıca-Mihrabad'da, Kalender'de, Tarabya'da, Büyükdere'de daha güzel olur."

A far corner of the driveway - with a view. Spring is beginning here in this part of Maryland.
For Our Daily Challenge topic - 'Where the sidewalk ends" - From Shel Silverstein's poem. Here's first verse:
"There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind."
Essaouira is a city in the western Moroccan economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-Al Haouz, on the Atlantic coast. Since the 16th century, the city has also been known by its Portuguese name of Mogador or Mogadore. The Berber name means the wall, a reference to the fortress walls that originally enclosed the city.
Essaouira has long been considered as one of the best anchorages of the Moroccan coast. The Carthaginian navigator Hanno visited in the 5th century BC and established the trading post of Arambys.
The Medina of Essaouira (formerly "Mogador") is a UNESCO World Heritage listed city, an example of a late 18th-century fortified town, as transferred to North Africa by European colonists. Major problems currently are deterioration of the extensive ramparts around the Medina; and widespread violation of laws against motorized vehicles (primarily mopeds) within the Medina.
The medina is home to many small arts and crafts businesses, notably cabinet making and 'thuya' wood-carving (using roots of the Tetraclinis tree), both of which have been practised in Essaouira for centuries.
The fishing harbour, suffering from the competition of Agadir and Safi remains rather small, although the catches (sardines, conger eels) are surprisingly abundant due to the coastal upwelling generated by the powerful trade winds and the Canaries Current. Essaouira remains one of the major fishing harbours of Morocco.
Essaouira is also renowned for its kitesurfing and windsurfing, with the powerful trade wind blowing almost constantly onto the protected, almost waveless, bay. Several world-class clubs rent top-notch material on a weekly basis. Parasols tend to be used on the beach as a protection against the wind and the blowing sand. Camel excursions are available on the beach and into the desert band in the interior.

I returned to Morocco on a short trip after seven years for a few days planned to be spent mainly in Marrakech and Essaouira - Morocco has remained as vibrant as I remembered and in some aspects is even more friendly to its foreign visitors.
Essaouira remains a gem on the western coast, with its marvelous old "Medina" quarter, picturesque harbor, busy small markets and narrow streets.
Seriously viewing on black adds so much to the image!!
