“There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad with radiance.” William Sharp
Restaurant clad in corrugated sheet metal. Probably a good idea when it's snowing.
Possibly not when it's 36°C.
The 2-ft 6-in railway of William Sinclair Horticulture Ltd at Cladance Moss, near East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, on 29th March 2011. Andrew Barclay 4-wheel diesel-hydraulic 'Old Nick' (Works No.556 of 1970) stands at the loading point on the moss as its last peat car is loaded. Upon takeover of the company by Westland Horticulture in August 2015, all narrow gauge railway operations on the Scottish peat railways ceased. At this time, two trains were in operation removing peat from the stockpile, but finding trains in operation here was a matter of good fortune.

These are the aluminium cladding panels of the University of Leeds multi-storey car park. It was designed by CJCT Architects and built by Wates Construction at a cost of £9.5m
The remains of Carn Praunter mine, now partially restored and cleared by the National Trust in 2005. The works were built in the early 1800s and operated until the mine closed in the 1890s. The draught provided by the tall chimney stack would have been fierce - a hurricane of sulphurous gases being disgorged into the atmosphere. In a southerly wind the fallout dropped in the fields over the valley brow and it was said that the ground was poisoned and would not yield a good crop of corn - it is still known as 'the arsenic field'.
The tall chimney stack topped by its distictive brick-cowl has now been replaced after being toppled by a gale in the winter of 1993. The stack served the arched ore roasting chambers where the arsenic was driven off and condensed on the walls of the adjacent 'condensing chambers'. The other ivy-clad buildings dotted around the works housed waterwheel driven crushing/stamping mills
The domed arsenic calciners can clearly be seen. How different this site must have looked less than 100 years ago!

Not completely sure why she was dressed like this (for the attention? was at a more adult party? dunno) but I definitely admired the view and very politely thanked her for taking a few moments to pose for me.
FYI: This came very close to my comfort level limits for photography.

Commentary.
Looking south-east from near to Loch Garry Viewpoint,
temperature inversion and a rapid dawn-time evaporation
created Glen and Loch Garry’s own cloud.
On the climb to this col separating Lochs Garry and Loyne
the views south-east and west towards Kinlochourn
early on an Autumn morning can be so atmospheric.
This usually signifies a dry day ahead, and it was!
The top halves of Ben Tee, left, and several other peaks over 900 metres above Loch Lochy in the Great Glen form a blue line under salmon-pink clouds. This is a heavily wooded glen so transpiration would have added to the finger of low cloud.
The sun has just risen enough to highlight a purple haze from the heather-clad moorland.
A silent, mystical moment of solace.
Classical residential building like in many towns in Transylvania, where many balconies are usually modified in loggias.
