Chirk Aqueduct (nearest) and viaduct. To the left is the English county of Shropshire and to the right is Wales. The River Ceiriog in the valley below marks the border.
Chirk Aqueduct is part of Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and the Llangollen Canal World Heritage site, which stretches from Chirk to the Horseshoe Falls at Llangollen.
Lessons learned from Berlin Wall: Borders exclude. Borders do not protect. Borders just reveal helplessness. Borders stir up hatred.

Ce paysage m'a vraiment attiré l'oeil... Et je pensais qu'il y avait vraiment quelque chose à faire avec. Je pense maintenant que j'aurai pu mieux l'exploiter (il y avait une rangé de peupliers qu'on ne voit pas vraiment ici...). Mais c'est aussi ça la photo !
Post-traitement important.
This is one of the remotest and most isolated farms I can remember visiting. It's so close to the US border that my cell phone started picking up cell towers in North Dakota. The house's windows still look out onto the great emptiness of the border country.

... this Black & White Border Collie is a working dog, herding sheep and other livestock on a farm. The breed evolved from dogs used to herd livestock on the Scotland-England border.

*[left-double-click for a closer-look - returning from border patrol]
The U.S. Coast Guard is recognized as a leader in the field of search
and rescue. To meet this responsibility, the Coast Guard maintains search and rescue facilities on the East, West and Gulf coasts,
as well as in Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and Puerto Rico.
U.S. Coast Guard patrols our southern border
throughout the 90 miles to Cuba and beyond.
*[On a personal note: my younger first-cousin Marty ALWAYS said when we were kids that when he grew up he wanted to work on
the water with the US Coast Guard. Well, he really lived that dream!
He worked for the US Coast Guard for the last 30+ years, enduring moves from Tampa Florida, to Alaska, to Hawaii and back to North Carolina. He will be retiring with many honors within the next year.
Great job, Marty! We're all very proud of you! - Ooh Rah! *salute*]
