This small plate belonged to my grandmother. They are very old and are small and can be used to eat soup out of them. I appreciate them as my mother also did.

This is the third time I have gone to Krampnitz, and this time everything was different. Lots of places were bricked, and it was impossible to get in.

Sweetheart Abbey is one of a pair of amazing sites about 20-minutes drive south of Dumfries near the Solway Coast. Caerlaverock Castle completes the pair, but the maddening thing is that the River Nith separates the two sites and there’s no bridge – you literally have to drive all the way back up to Dumfries and then south again to reach the other site. First world problems, I know, but you should plan accordingly if you mean to visit the area.
Sweetheart Abbey has escaped time and again the ravages of history. In 1300, Archibald the Grim, Lord of Galloway and Threave Castle, protected the abbey from invading English armies who had come to fight Lady Devorgilla’s son and King of the Scots, John (of course). John Balliol quickly lost out to Scotland’s most famous king, Robert the Bruce, as the two fought for power throughout Dumfries & Galloway. As the English army slowly went bankrupt and its troops started deserting, King Edward I was notified that his invasion of Scotland was deemed illegal by the Papacy, and he set up camp at Sweetheart Abbey as he began to retreat.
Sweetheart Abbey did not escape this fate, but its dissolution was more gradual than in other places as it was under the care of a Catholic lord ( The Maxwells) at the time of the so called Reformation. (Western Iconoclasm) Still, many of the abbey’s stones were recycled into buildings in New Abbey, though, incredibly, what remained of the abbey was protected in 1779 as an “ornament to that part of the country.” This must be one of the earliest acts of preservation in Scotland.

Dungeness is one of the largest expanses of shingle in Europe.[2] It is of international conservation importance for its geomorphology, plant and invertebrate communities and bird life. This is recognised and protected mostly through its conservation designations as a national nature reserve (NNR), a Special Protection Area (SPA), a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and part of the Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) of Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay.
There is a remarkable variety of wildlife living at Dungeness, with over 600 different types of plants: a third of all those found in Britain. It is one of the best places in Britain to find invertebrates such as moths, bees, beetles, and spiders; many of these are very rare, some found nowhere else in Britain.
Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it’s much appreciated.

I put my toy photography spin on the Us movie poster and as simple as it was, it is still one of my personal favorite pics
I was playing around with a light box and using some principals from Light - Science and Magic.
The knife is a hunting knife given to me by my father, to my knowledge it isn’t anything special. The sheath was custom made by my grandfather.
