Up on Boreas Pass waiting for night to fall, took a quick snapshot of the light on the mountian. As it turned out the night shoot was not good,(my fault not the cameras) and this turned out to be the best of the evening. Oh Well!

Brian and I are finally getting back into the Tuesday and Thursday after work ride. And today was the maiden voyage of my new GoPro.
A casual test of the newly acquired Canon 50mm dreamlens shot wide open with Leica SL2. Surprised me with beautiful palette. My girl reading her favourite storybook
I'm on holiday in Greece and today has been a very hot day. Too hot even for wearing satin, but now it's evening and it's a lot cooler and much more comfortable. I take the opportunity for a nice girly evening stroll in satin to check out the hotel gardens and enjoy views of the Mediterranean. Look, it's beautiful here with the plants and trees, the sea, the sunset and the wonderfully colored sky.
Sitting with a beer watching the sun go down I saw this guy and his dog coming up the beach{i nearly had him walking up a tree-spell checker would not have helped}
In the far we can see Kópavogur and Garðabær, suburb towns of Reykjavik. Taken from Kópavogskirkja.
I can only guess that this was somewhere in Orange Free Sate, with the onset of a storm. My notes for this photo are sadly lacking. One of those negs that at the time was just too difficult to print, but all that has changed with the enlarger being superseded by the scanner. South Africa Early 1976. © David Hill
Early evening at the Reichstag.
The Reichstag – home to the German Parliament – is one of the most famous buildings in Berlin and the site of several historically significant events.
Built in the 19th century to house the parliament answerable to the Kaiser, it was from here that the German Republic was declared in 1918. The republic lasted just 14 years before the Nazis claimed power.
The Reichstag – the parliament which operates from the building is known as the Bundestag – was gutted by fire in 1933, an event blamed on the Communists and used by the Nazis as an excuse to suspend civil rights and take dictatorial control of Germany.
The building stood half-destroyed for many years, the Allies flying the Soviet flag from its roof as they battled to take control of Berlin in 1945 and only by 1971 was restoration work carried out.
For years, the Reichstag – which stood right on the border of East and West Berlin – was home to a museum and only in 1990 after the reunification of Germany, was it decided it should house the country’s parliament once more.
Reconstruction – including the building of a large glass dome on the roof – was overseen by architect Sir Norman Foster and was completed in 1999. Since then, parliament has sat within and tourists have flocked to the dome and the roof terrace above for views of the city and down into the chambers below.
Evening Standard's sole comic strip is now a reprint of Modesty Blaise from 1963. Things are that bad now.
This evening on the walk home from work, passing the front of the Royal Scottish Academy on the mound, dusk fading into full night, didn't have the tripod with me so I improvised sitting the camera on the handily flat-topped railings and taking a couple of shots on either side of the junction in front of the Academy.
