Crash landing instead of after work:
In Hornafjörður they delivered equipment for the nearby radar station in Stokksnes. Now, defying the winter storms, they rock anxiously in their Skytrain towards the end of the day. But nothing comes of it: Suddenly, the freighter's two Wright radial engines begin to stutter ominously. The carburetors are freezing! The hum of the engines subsides, ends in a wild rattle, until it is finally completely swallowed by the rustling of the airstream. An unreal silence breaks through. Wicke and Fletcher desperately try to restart the engines. Without success. When they emerge from the clouds at a height of almost 800 meters, it becomes clear to them that they will not get as far as Keflavik. You have to make an emergency landing. But where? The area here is anything but inviting - cold lava, stones, rocks. Death also lurks next door in the whipped sea. Shatter or drown? It doesn't matter. But what is this? A beach? Yes indeed. It has to work out here!

For years I have been suffering from dizzy spells, and have now been diagnosed with Hydrocephalus. In a couple of months I will undergo surgery at Rigshospitalet, which is the largest and most highly specialised hospital in Denmark. Needless to say, I'm looking forward to that.

I'll be sharing a few photographs of the skyline of NYC over a stretch of time. Here is the first image of this series.

The colors you see here are as found on a late afternoon of a particularly bright and clear day in the Chicago area. It's a street shot with a person, but I think this shot tells more of an urban, rather than a human story.

Astoria, Oregon
Oregon Coast
Hotel was Former Cannery site on Oregon Coast
"Formerly, a condemned dock and former cannery. Many thought he was a dreamer due to the complexity of building a hotel with old pier pilings as the foundation.
Undeterred Jake worked to develop a hotel that recreates the feeling of the canneries of yesteryear with smokestacks, exposed steel beams, and wooden trusses.
The rooflines and placement of the windows are like those of the old canneries. The siding and roof materials are authentic to the period. The hotel welcomed its first guests in August 2005. Robert "Jake" Jacob, an Astoria native, died in 2019, but his dream to create Astoria's first luxury boutique hotel on a a former cannery pier lives on.

A moment of reflection - A serene and calm view across Buttermere towards the sentinels and Char Hut with the changing light picking out the youthful greens of spring. A moment of stillness in the ever changing conditions as the last hint of dawn mist lifts, revealing some wonderful reflections across the lake.
A peaceful and tranquil view that now seems so distant from the horrors of the present day with the hard to comprehend shattering of peace within Europe.

The sky was so clear….
It was interesting to see how architecture could blend with nature this way as I witnessed the sun setting slowly behind the busy Ting Kau Bridge in West Kowloon, Hong Kong

Stave church in Heddal, Telemark, Norway
Shot with Tamron 17 mm manual lens @ f/11 on full frame digital camera.
The Cloisters at Lacock Abbey shot with a fisheye lens, I had to wait 20 minutes for the clositers to be clear and it was worth the wait, I did remove the distortion but preferred the curves the fisheye creates.
The cloisters and abbey have been used in a number of films but are most famous as part of Hogwarts in the Harry Potter films. The abbey was first built in the 13th century and is now home to the Fox Talbot photography museum.

Located on the northeast end of Jekyll Island, Driftwood Beach will amaze you with its beautiful driftwood and trees that look like a tree graveyard. It is due to the island's north end slowly eroding and being deposited on the south end part.
