Shot from 2006, before the condos started. Seems to be condos and a Nando's today as well as new Women's college building.. It's great they didn't tear this down, I've always loved this building.

Could just about make a panorama of the stairs, but looking down there are still some funny angles going on !!

I shot this back in 2011 and came across it by complete accident at the time. I've driven around twice now looking for it, never found it again. Half of the parking lot was flooded which you can see in the next shot. I'd love to see more buildings like this in my city."
Similar to another photo I uploaded. This is a photo of the postman (postie) at Mount Dandenong Garage, in Mount Dandenong, Victoria, Australia.
This was photographed using a 1990s camera called the Vivitar ECO35H, a fixed-focus, single aperture, single shutter speed camera with a plastic lens (and which still works after over 20 years, which is pretty good for such a cheap basic "throwaway" camera). The film used is Ilford HP5 Plus 400, a wonderful film.
The Grand Shaft is a unique structure in the Western Heights and a very rare example of a triple spiral staircase in fortifications of the same age (early 1800s). When work began in earnest on the Western Heights, it soon became apparent that rapid troop movement from the cliff top to street level was greatly hindered by the distance that the men would have to cover. If an attacking force had tried to make a landing on the harbour or beach at Dover, troops on the Heights would have had to make their way along from the Drop Redoubt or Citadel to the original South Entrance (now the site of the Western Heights Roundabout), along what is now Snargate Street to meet the enemy; a route of almost a mile and a half, when troops were barracked only some 300 feet above sea level! This was hardly an ideal scenario and in 1804 construction started on the Grand Shaft, which had been designed by Lieutenant-Colonel William Twiss. The triple staircase itself is 140ft deep and at the base is a tunnel leading out to a guard room and from there out into the town. At the top is a further single staircase leading up to the parade ground of the Grand Shaft Barracks. This top staircase is inside what is known as the bowl, and was excavated out of the cliff top. The shaft itself was then dug vertically through the cliff and revetted with brick. Windows line the central shaft to allow light into the staircases, approximately every 30 stairs. As the threat of invasion passed, the Grand Shaft became something of a local attraction, and there are stories of a Mr William Leith of Deal riding his horse up the Grand Shaft for a wager! What is clear is that in the Georgian period, there were no class distinctions attached to the triple staircase. It was simply to ensure rapid troop movement, when men of all ranks would have been deployed down any and all of the staircases in the event of an enemy attack. However, as the Victorian period progressed, class distinction became ever more apparent, and while no definitive documentation exists, the most popular theory states that the staircases were divided into “Officers and their Ladies”, “Sergeants and their Wives” and “Soldiers and their Women”. This has been supported by the fact that the Queen’s Regulations of the time clearly stated that there was to be no off-duty fraternisation between the ranks. As well as carrying troops, the Grand Shaft also had to carry the drainage from the Grand Shaft Barracks above. This had rather unpleasant consequences, and it was noted in a commission of 1858 that each time the privies were flushed, the force of the water would force sewer gas up through traps into the shaft, but also unfortunately into houses! The commission noted that a large tank with a foul air pipe was needed at the bottom of the shaft to counteract such obnoxious fumes! The guard room at the bottom of the shaft was part of a walled compound, which was found by the 1858 to be hopelessly inadequate as it was far too small to serve any function effectively. The original guardroom, coal bunker and ash pit were therefore demolished and a new compound constructed with an Officer’s guard room, two cells and a latrine and a gas meter house, which indicates the time that gas lighting was introduced to the Western Heights. Today only the gas meter house remains; all other structures were demolished.
On the third Sunday of the month between April and October, the Grand Shaft will be open free of charge for the public to visit. It will also be open for an extra weekend in September for the Heritage Weekend, and during the Western Heights Preservation Society’s open weekends.

Tripodless again, so rested it on a wall and guessed at the angle. It was also raining heavily!

Gázi Kászim pasa dzsámija.Az egykori Szent Bertalan-templom helyén épült fel a török dzsámi 1543-46 között. A török kiűzése után a jezsuiták kapták meg, a minaretet lebontották, az épületet átalakították, de az ma is őrzi az iszlám jegyeit.
Gazi Khassim pasha had it built between 1543-46.approximately in the place of the Medieval main church of the town, the St Bartholomew Parish Church, that was demolished at that time. Of its two main parts of the building, the original, Turkish one is which faces the square. Of the original interior - apart from some fresco fragments - only the mihrab (worship niche marking the direction of Mecca), also decorated with stalactite vaulting, has survived. The church gained a more and more Baroque aspect during the repeated reconstructions until the restoration in its original form took place; it regained its present appearance between 1939 and 1942. The ogee-arch windows were reconstructed and in place of the original entrance the new, semicircular, Bauhaus wing in the northwest was built at this time - the latter decorated by a local painter Ernő Gebauer. Presently it's Roman Catholic Curch.
Another view of the Grade ll* Listed church which was built in 1867 on the site of previous churches, It was renovated in 1887, not far from Holmrook and Santon Bridge.
Heritage Site: Fort built in 17th century at palakkad,Kerala , India.
The palace is protected by the outside walls and soldiers guard and build their ammunition in the circular walls. Water was allowed in canals for the horses to tip and fall.
This late Gothic style city hall in Wrocław's central market square is one of the best-preserved buildings of its type in Poland. It was built in multiple stages over a period of approximately 250 years (from the end of the 13th century to the 16th century). Between the 19th century and the 21st century it was repeatedly renovated, which influenced its current character. Today it houses the Bourgeois Art Museum. The basement features Świdnik Cellar — one of Europe's oldest restaurants.

This bird house park outside of Picton has been around since 1980 and has a great variety of bird houses on display that replicas of famous buildings in Prince Edward County. It's free and accessible. I haven't been in years but I will be back to check it out. These film shots are from 2006 and the rest of the roll where I had more closeups was destroyed by a local film lab.

Aqueducts moved water through gravity alone, being constructed along a slight downward gradient within conduits of stone, brick or concrete. Most were buried beneath the ground, and followed its contours; obstructing peaks were circumvented or, less often, tunnelled through. Where valleys or lowlands intervened, the conduit was carried on bridgework, or its contents fed into high-pressure lead, ceramic or stone pipes and siphoned across. Most aqueduct systems included sedimentation tanks, sluices and distribution tanks to regulate the supply at need.
