Named after Hawaii's legendary Ambassador of Aloha – surfer and Olympic swimming champion, Duke Paoa Kahanamoku – this spectacular five-acre salt-water lagoon offers pure relaxation lounging under swaying palm trees and/or participating in many fun-filled family water sports. HHV
Originally called the "Calvert Street Bridge", it was designed by Paul Philippe Cret in a neoclassical style and built in 1935. It was rededicated as the Duke Ellington Bridge following the death of the Washington native and famous band leader in 1974. It is a limestone structure with three graceful 146-foot (45 m) arches. There are four sculptural reliefs on the abutments measuring three feet high by four feet wide. The classical reliefs by Leon Hermant represent the four modes of travel: automobile, train, ship, and plane.
The bridge replaced one built in 1891 by the Rock Creek Railway to carry streetcars. The bridge was a steel trestle bridge with wooden decking, 750 feet (230 m) long and 130 feet (40 m) high. To avoid streetcar service disruption, the old bridge was moved 80 feet (24 m) south during the construction of the new replacement Calvert Street Bridge; however, streetcar service was discontinued before the new bridge opened.

My cousin Duke is here again for a visit!
He is a German shepherd/Alaskan malamute husky mix, eleven years old, and a big old softy even though he pretends to be gruff with me sometimes.
He was born in northern Canada as a potential sled dog, but Dad's daughter adopted him, which is a good thing for us, and probably him, we like to think.
As soon as we got him today he was anxious to get out for a walk, as he remembers the off-leash fun of the Prescott-Russell Trail, shown here, and some of the tamer side trails we think he can handle.
We stayed out about an hour, which is max for him now, and took it easy most of the way, which means limited running and no ball playing, even for me. Still, he displays a genuine enthusiasm for adventure, and loped around like a much younger dog at times.
We'll probably have him for a few days, so a couple more photos should be upcoming.
Good boy, Duke!

Frozen Duke - Dawn breaks upon the frosty shoreline of Ullswater with the frozen Duke of Portland boathouse catching the early light as mist rolls down the lake.
The hoar frost on the foreground reeds just hints at what an artic dawn it was; experiencing such ethereal conditions a year ago made waiting around on Ullswater's shore in such Siberian temperatures surprisingly bearable, actually enjoyable to be honest.
Spectacular hoar frost conditions on a fiercely, bitterly cold dawn.

I visited Ivinghoe just after the rain hoping to find some of these and possibly some of the many species of bee to be found there. This Duke Of Burgundy was a little sluggish after the shower but only allowed me to take a couple of shots before fluttering off in search of love. Always a pleasure to see these in the very short window of opportunity we have, especially as there are not many locations left due to habitat loss. Fortunately the land these are on is quite save partly due to its geology and also the efforts of local wildlife trusts. This makes it a stronghold for many species of butterfly that are in decline elsewhere.

This is The Duke of Cumberland, Shepherd Neame in Whitstable. This pub stands at the northern end of the High Street with Sea Street to the West and Harbour Street to the east.
I quickly went down to the beach as the sky looked like it was going to be colourful from the sunset but this didn’t happen.
I walked through the town and noticed it was extremely quiet and no cars, so decided to stand in the middle of the road and get this shot.

Here is the second capture from Maxie Duke this time looking up the primary escarpment and the waterfall chute itself. If you remember the previous photo... that capture was taken about half way up from what you see here over on the left hand side. Behind me in this capture the waterfall continues downward for quite a while which is really cool. The area I was standing was much more cleared out than my previous visit, and we'll continue down the falls in the next captures. Pictures don't quite do justice to the breadth of this beauty! :) -H3
