Water, rocks and trees: these are a few of my favourite things.
The river runs for a few miles out of Wester Camghouran into the Rannoch Forest uplands; the gorge accompanies the path for an impressively long stretch of waterfalls and cascades.

Love the MadPea Games and events. This one was so much fun, and even better then the spy hunter game. I left it late to start but still managed to squeze in all the achievement. Thank you Madpea for another awesome adventure.
The Catherine Palace is a Rococo palace in Tsarskoye Selo (Pushkin), located 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of central St. Petersburg. It was the summer residence of the tsars. The palace is part of the World Heritage Site Saint Petersburg and Related Groups of Monuments. The display of the Catherine Palace (known until 1910 as the Great Palace of Tsarskoe Selo) covers the 300-year history of this outstanding edifice and presents the work of architects involved in its construction and decoration in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and also with the achievements of the restorers who returned the palace to life after the Second World War. Of the 58 halls destroyed during the war years, 32 have been recreated.
In 1717, while St Petersburg was being created on the banks of the Neva, the architect Johann Friedrich Braunstein started supervising the construction of the first masonry royal residence at Tsarskoe Selo that has gone down in history as “the stone chambers” of Catherine I. During the reign of Empress Elizabeth (the daughter of Peter the Great and Catherine I) in late 1742 or early 1743 it was decided to enlarge the building. From late 1748 until 1756 the construction of the Tsarskoe Selo residence was directed by Bartolomeo Francesco Rastrelli (1700–1771), the chief architect of the imperial court. On 10 May 1752 Empress Elizabeth signed a decree on the complete reconstruction of the old building and on 30 July 1756 Rastrelli was already presenting his new creation to his crowned mistress and foreign ambassadors.
The next stage in the decoration of the state rooms and living quarters came in the 1770s. The new mistress of the residence, Empress Catherine II, was fascinated with the art of the Ancient World and wanted to have her apartments finished in keeping with current tastes. She entrusted the task to the Scottish architect Charles Cameron (1743–1812), an expert on ancient architecture. The interiors that he created in the Zubov Wing and the North Part of the Palace are marked by refined beauty, austere decoration and especially exquisite finishing. In 1817, on the orders of Emperor Alexander I, the architect Vasily Stasov (1769–1848) created the State Study and a few adjoining rooms that are finished in a commons style – all these rooms were devoted to extolling the brilliant victories that the Russian army won against Napoleon in 1812 and afterwards. The last note in the symphony of palace state rooms was struck by the new Main Staircase created in 1860–63 by Ippolito Monighetti (1819–1878) in the "Second Rococo" style.
From the South Bank looking across The Thames towards Cannon Street Station and beyond to landmarks commonly known as The Cheese Grater, The Gherkin and The Walkie-Talkie. Under construction I think that is The Pinnacle. Adding to the extraordinary architectural and engineering achievements of the city of London.

I keep hearing some international travelers condemn Tokyo Tower because it's largely a copy of the Eiffel Tower. Photo Wise, I'd wager Tokyo Tower is by far the better of the two. I mean, the Eiffel Tower is really only ever shot from the front cause there aren't a whole lot of good compositions, but with the Tokyo Tower you could shoot it from almost any position and get a good shot. The grounds are far more vivid and detailed.
When I was in Japan I actually went out to shoot the tower on multiple nights, primarily because my second time around I was accommodated just a few blocks away. There wasn't a whole lot of leeway because apparently they turn the lights off at midnight (and I had other night shoots to get to).
The plan was to shoot inside the stairway tunnel, which is a more well known shot then I thought cause there was a literal LINE just to get it. That instantly spoke to me saying it just was not worth it (and the guy who was down there when I arrived was taking his own sweet time) so I circled the perimeter of the park a few times before I found this walkway to the northeast, and it was just perfect.
This is one of the better shots I got in Tokyo, the composition could not have been better, and there wasn't a line for this one. In the editing process I saw quite a bit of noise in the sky still, and there was also a bit of construction material down the middle of the walkway which I went to great lengths to get rid of (redrew the tile lines myself) and the lamps leading to the tower were impeccably placed. So my advice to other photographers, don't try to get the same angle and composition that you've seen other people do, you could shoot the Tokyo Tower from almost ANY angle and make it look amazing. Be willing to think outside the box a bit.
The independence of the human being is manifested from early childhood and in the smallest things that can be transformed into great achievements.
Thankful for: Pride in country
A sense of belonging somewhere. A sense of pride of where you are from.
We all stand on the shoulders of the giants who came before us.
Our history is not perfect but neither is it a litany of crimes and sins. What happened in the past, good and bad, made us who we are.
We must not wallow in the achievements of those who preceded us and claim them as our own, nor need we be ashamed of the things we did not do personally.
We must remember the events of the past and learn from them as we strive in our lives.
We are the people who must shape our future through our actions today.
You do not live just anywhere. It is your neighbourhood.
