The Scottish Great Highland bagpipes are the best known in the Anglophone world; however, bagpipes have been played for a millennium or more throughout large parts of Europe, northern Africa, and western Asia, including Turkey, the Caucasus, and around the Persian Gulf
Monterey at the California coast is always a treat to visit. We went for dinner at the Inn at Spanish Bay, an upscale resort and golf course. A piper entertains guests with a bagpipe, apparently every evening.
I processed a balanced and a photographic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

On a blustery summer afternoon, 33111, one of 8 preserved class 33/1 locomotives climbs away from Corfe Castle towards Harmans Cross while working the 1720 Norden to Swanage service.
The locomotive is in rather better external condition than when I captured it nearly 30 years earlier at Yeovil Junction (flic.kr/p/RPwX45).
With class 33/1s operating Weymouth to Bournemouth trains from 1967, 33111 almost certainly visited the Wareham to Swanage line in British Rail days prior to closure in 1972.
Note also the correct use of headcode '98': the Southern Region headcode that was used to denote Wareham to Swanage trains.
The Royal Mile (Scots: Ryal Mile) is a succession of streets forming the main thoroughfare of the Old Town of the city of Edinburgh in Scotland. The term was first used descriptively in W M Gilbert's Edinburgh in the Nineteenth Century (1901), "...with its Castle and Palace and the royal mile between", and was further popularised as the title of a guidebook, published in 1920.
From the Castle gates to the Palace gates the street is almost exactly a mile long and runs downhill between two significant locations in the royal history of Scotland, namely Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, hence its name. The streets which make up the Royal Mile are (west to east) Castlehill, the Lawnmarket, the High Street, the Canongate and Abbey Strand. The Royal Mile is the busiest tourist street in the Old Town, rivalled only by Princes Street in the New Town.

We were at the lock in Phoenixville PA and as we were walking back from the dam we heard music. This woman was playing her bagpipes and it was awesome!
On the 28th August 1991 Class 33/1 no. 33101 1nd 33106 arrive at Exeter Central with the 1V09 0915 Waterloo to Exeter St.David's.
Miles from home; a proud Scotsman plays a tune to earn a few pennies from the passers by on Westminster Bridge.
Mini bagpipe was brought to me from Scotland by DDSalica :3 So thankful as I love bagpipes!!!
However this is only for show, as Coltrane has no musical ear at all.
