Not yet ready for sunbathing and swimming but for an extended walk : Hvidbjerg Strand in March, Jylland, Denmark.
Local legend suggests that this bridge was started by Bishop Henry Cheyne in the late 13th or early 14th century and completed by Robert the Bruce. Whilst this may or may not be true, historical documents show that the bridge we see today was the result of rebuilding work in three phases in the early 17th century.
This was the main crossing on the Don leading to the north from Aberdeen and vice versa prior to the construction of the adjacent Bridge of Don in 1831. Today the Brig o’ Balgownie is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
This is a panorama of the Fischunkelalm with the Obersee, which is a lake beside the Königssee in the Berchtesgaden Alps. I was impressed by the clean reflections of the mountains and the complete scenery.
The pano is stitched from 6 vertical shots.

Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.
This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.
The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.
In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.
While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.
I took this on Sept 10th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 15 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Dies ist alles pure Malerei!
Die seit 2013 dauernde Generalsanierung der Mauritiuskirche in Wiesentheid wurde vor wenigen Tagen abgeschlossen. Und endlich kann wieder die erstaunliche Illusionsmalerei des italienischen Malers Giovanni Francesco Manchini bewundert werden, der 1728-1730 die Kirche ausmalte. Besonders das Deckengemälde (im Bild) vermittelt eine perfekte Raumtäuschung.

This is pure painting!
The general renovation of the Mauritiuskirche in Wiesentheid, which has been underway since 2013, was completed a few days ago. And finally, the amazing illusionary painting by the Italian painter Giovanni Francesco Manchini, who painted the church in 1728-1730, can be admired again. The ceiling fresco (in the picture) in particular conveys a perfect illusion of space.
I thought it might be nice to show you the finished product. The forms were removed the very next day.
The sequence was: footings were poured and leveled and rebar set vertically to tie in the walls. That was done a week or so prior. Then the metal forms went up with rebar between them. The concrete was then poured. After 12 hours the forms could be removed. So this is the result the very next day. This is the basement and garage. A two story house will be built on top of these walls. This is the back view.
ODC - complete obsession
I obsess about finding interesting light, this was taken as the sun was starting to peek over the mountain this morning. The flower is from my chive plant sitting on my front porch.
I'm sorry for the delay but I was very busy at work... Finally I can show you the transformation from tadpole to toad complete. A centimeter of beauty!
In the easter day I freed 3 of these in the field near the pond where I found them and I'm waiting that the last two tadpoles have finished the metamorphosis to free them also!

The Castle of Lindoso is a medieval castle in the civil parish of Lindoso, municipality of Ponte da Barca, in the Portuguese district of Viana do Castelo. It is classified as a National Monument. It is believed the fortress was started under the 13th century reign of Afonso III of Portugal and was of low importance. During the time of the Restoration of Portuguese independence, the castle and its location gained importance in view of its border location. For this reason, the location was used as a support base in the context of Portuguese incursions in Galicia by the military forces of Portugal in September 1641. As the war progressed, the castle received modernization and restoration works, which were completed around 1666 (date inscribed on the lintel of a door). The castle saw a defensive state in the Napoleonic Wars but never saw action. It has never been used since.

It's taking way too long, people. They shut this road down some time during trump's tenure. The Germans could have completed this in six months, at twice the thickness of a standard American road. On most days, no work is being performed here. On 9-21-2023, the bridge was finally completed and is open to traffic.

On our trip around Vancouver Island, we started in Victoria. While there, I took some time to travel down to the waterside to see the ocean. It struck me how calm it was at low tide. After composing and taking a shot of the now visible rocks, and smooth waters, I left thinking one comp was in the bag.
However, two kayakers soon appeared giving me an added idea that would contribute to that same image. I quickly returned to the same spot, and waited for them to enter my precomposed scene. Later it occurred to me how much more complete the shot was with these travellers than without them. And how thee narrative changed to something more interesting.
"A stunning 20-metre reconstruction of a 1,000-year-old Viking trading vessel, the Saga Farmann completes its epic two-year journey from Norway to London this August, retracing ancient Viking trade routes across Europe. Built using UNESCO-recognised traditional techniques with oak and pine wood, this remarkable ship represents the perfect marriage of ancient craftsmanship and modern maritime adventure.
The vessel’s brief London appearance offers a rare opportunity for enthusiasts to experience Viking maritime heritage first-hand. It will also be the star attraction at September’s Classic Boat Festival, held at St Katharine Docks on the 6th and 7th of September, alongside the famous Dunkirk Little Ships."

Completed in 1931, the Pittsburgh & West Virginia’s mainline to Connellsville became the final link in creating the famed “Alphabet Route”, which was designed to attract through-traffic off of the big time railroad empires of the century. After the fall of Robert Gould’s empire, the plan to expand had faded off. Years later, under new receivership was the mainline revitalized.
There was nothing wasted when it came to designing and laying this route, bulldozing through every hill and filling every land gap with these enormous steel viaducts. Having seen so many photos growing up and shooting it dozens of times, this line remains to be a favorite in my books, and in my opinion, one of the most photogenic lines on the East coast.
In this picture, Wheeling’s 618 job stretches their consist over Mingo Creek, probably the most iconic location on the entire route.
Interestingly enough, in April of 2025, this exact scenario had occurred. The 6348, 6354, and engines for SWP led this same job, in similar conditions, almost a year ago. Though I was not present for the April run, it’s an odd feeling to see this scene repeated almost verbatim, in a time where uncertainty rests upon this railroad. These coke trains really do have a special spot in my heart, and so the addiction to shooting them continues.

Thank you everyone.
This Victorian mansion was completed for timber baron William Carson in 1886. it is now home of the Ingomar Club. I restored the photo recovered from a film roll taken in 1988 by my wife Diane.
Little Bear just completed the puzzle and is so happy, putting that last piece in was always the best.
Urgh, I took tons of photos of her and none of them turned out well. Hopefully I can find time this week to get some better shots, 'cuz she's really a pretty gal.
Completed in 1810 by John Rennie, the spectacular Dundas Aqueduct carries the Kennet & Avon Canal over the River Avon and is a Scheduled Monument. It was the first canal structure to be designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument in 1951.
Named after Charles Dundas, the first chairman of the Kennet and Avon Canal Company, the aqueduct forms the junction between the Kennet and Avon Canal and the largely derelict Somerset Coal Canal. The short stretch of the Somerset Coal Canal still in water forms Brassknocker Basin, used for boat moorings, cycle hire and a cafe. A short walk further there is the Dundas Wharf where the small tollhouse, warehouse and crane still stand.

Located in Colmar, France, in the heart of the Alsace wine district, ‘la maison des têtes’ (or ‘the house of heads’ in english) is a historical and listed building completed in 1609. The name stems from the 109 small head sculptures that ornate its renaissance style façade.

When I begun to process this exposure bracketing, I thought that I knew what I wanted to attain. I was perfectly wrong. Indeed, these RAW files kept a few secret bits of beauty which I was not aware of when I selected them for processing – and they changed the course of the journey I had foreordained.
I was in a gloomy mood, for both personal and general concerns, and the RAWs looked rather duller than the average – taken: they appeared to accurately mirror the state of my soul. At worst, I would have wasted some hours of pointless procesing work before deciding to look for something better. Nobody would have known. However things were to contradict my expectations. I got some good news (a rarity in those tough days) about the health conditions of my brother and my “adopted brother-in-law” (i.e. my brother’s brother-in-law); on the other hand, Darktable – that wonderful software – gifted me with a few unanticipated treasures. My thoughts were growing more and more positive and the processing of this bracketing were proceeding accordingly: a hidden beauty was unfolding before me, my own persisting unawareness of it notwithstanding. At last I found myself with a picture that had apparently self-processed itself*, while I was busy exploring uncharted thoughts that kept emerging along the way
* Admittedly a bizarre phenomenon, which Maurits Cornelius Escher would have loved – think of his Drawing hands.
I would avoid to nag you about this incredibly wonderful location: you can take a look at my album Silent banks, the complete collection of the photos I have taken there; the attached narratives are rich in information about the place, if you are curious enough.
This location is especially renowned for its legendary morning mists, but only a thin layer of milky mist floated above the water that morning. On top of the hill in the distance, beyond the river, lays the sanctuary of the Madonna della Rocca ( = Madonna of the Rock), already brushed by the first light pouring from the Eastern horizon.
I have obtained this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1.7/0/+1.7 EV] by luminosity masks in the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal exposure" shot), then, as usual, I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.
I tried the inverted RGB blue channel technique described by Boris Hajdukovic as a possible final contribution to the processing. While this technique (which, its imposing name notwithstanding, is pretty simple to implement) often holds interesting results in full daylight landscapes, its effects on a low-light capture (e.g. a sunrise) are utterly unpredictable, so at the end of my workflow I often give it a try to ascertain its possibilities. In this picture I have exploited this technique in a very frugal, yet effective, way – just some touches where needed.
