One of the ornate Victorians in Ferndale, California.
From Wikipedia:
"Ferndale, sometimes also referred to as "Cream City", is known for well-preserved Victorian store-fronts on main street and homes throughout the community, which are also known as "Butterfat Palaces," due to their construction wherein considerable wealth was generated in the dairy industry. Many of these buildings date from the 1880s. The entire town is registered as California Historical Landmark #883."
This blue coloured luxury hotel in Surfers Paradise is known as,'SOUL'.(Rooms start at around A$500.00 per night).
Thought there would be more interesting buildings on this site in Edinburgh but this was the best I could find.
Long exposure with B&W ten stop filter of 120 seconds. The eagle eyed might notice I have flipped and mirrored the building as there was a big sign to the right and a balcony on the left.
Thanks for all the comments asking about my recovery. It's a slow process but getting there. Hopefully in about three more months things will be almost back to normal
Fontevraud Abbey
Fontevraud Royal Abbey, situated where the three regions of Poitou, Anjou and Touraine meet, is one of the largest surviving monastic cities from the Middle Ages.
The first permanent structures were built between 1110 and 1119. Then located within what is sometimes referred to as the Angevin Empire, the King of England, Henry II, his wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and son, King Richard the Lionheart were buried here at the end of the 12th century. Disestablished as a monastery during the French Revolution, it served as a prison from 1804 to 1963.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is situated in the Loire Valley between Chalonnes-sur-Loire and Sully-sur-Loire within the Loire-Anjou-Touraine French regional natural park (Parc naturel régional Loire-Anjou-Touraine).
The Abbey was listed as a Historic Monument in 1840, and, as part of the Loire Valley, as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. In a green valley just a few kilometres from the Loire River, near Saumur, Fontevraud is one of the unmissable stops on a visit to the Loire Valley.
