If there is one place that is famous in the Seine-Maritime region, it is Saint-Georges de Boscherville Abbey. Its Romanesque style and authentic setting give it a very special charm. It is the result of a perfect blend of nature, art and history. Its roots are ancient, and it was built on a sacred site whose origin dates back to Gallo-Roman times.

Harran is famous for its traditional "beehive" adobe houses, constructed entirely without wood. The design of these makes them cool inside, suiting the climatic needs of the region, and is thought to have been unchanged for at least 3,000 years. Some were still in use as dwellings until the 1980s. However, those remaining today are strictly tourist exhibits, while most of Harran's population lives in a newly built small village about 2 kilometres away from the main site.

The photo shows how these houses look from inside since they are now mostly used to attract tourists as cafes and souvenir shops.
Famous for the spectacular Elora Gorge and its 80 foot limestone cliffs descending into the Grand and Irvine Rivers. Adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers regularly flock to Elora, Ontario to enjoy some fun and take in the natural beauty. Many original stone buildings from the 1800′s still make up the downtown village centre. Over the decades, Elora has maintained its old world charm and the century-old buildings have been transformed into unique galleries, gift shops, artists studios and charming restaurants creating the perfect four-season shopping and dining destination.

Among many luxurious and less luxurious hotels on the island, the currently closed Hotel Formetor at Cala Pi de la Posada was the first luxury hotel on the island.
Built in 1929, it has been home to the rich, the famous and the celebrities, including Princess Soraya, Plácido Domingo, Audrey Hepburn, Charly Chaplin and John Wayne, Winston Churchill and Helmut Schmidt, Michael Douglas, Mikael Gorbatchow and the Dalai Lama. I am sure that many others have visited this beautifully located place.
We were able to spend a few beautiful hours on the pine-lined beach and swim in the turquoise blue water.

Tower Bridge is the most famous building in London, built in the Victorian style. Its history began in 1872, when the English Parliament passed an act to build a second bridge over the Thames. However, a condition was set that the style of the bridge should harmonize with the style of the castle. It is a drawbridge near the "Tower of London", where it gets its name.
The bridge was completed in 1894; it allows the passage of ocean-going ships up to about 40.5 m above the water level.
A characteristic element of the bridge are two main towers, connected at the top by two pedestrian bridges.

Tower Bridge jest najbardziej znanym obiektem w Londynie, zbudowanym w stylu wiktoriańskim. Jego historia zaczęła się w roku 1872, kiedy to parlament angielski uchwalił ustawę dotyczącą budowy drugiego mostu nad Tamizą. Postawiono jednak warunek, aby styl mostu harmonizował ze stylem zamku. Jest to most zwodzony w pobliżu "Tower of London", skąd bierze swą nazwę.
Budowę mostu ukończono w 1894 roku; umożliwia przepływanie statków oceanicznych do około 40,5 m wysokości powyżej poziomu wody.
Charakterystycznym elementem mostu są dwie wieże główne, połączone u góry dwoma pomostami dla pieszych.

秋の源光庵: 悟りの窓と迷いの窓
The famous Poldark backdrop of the engine houses at the Botallack mines in Cornwall. The weather that day did not make it easy for me to take a photo - just when I had scrambled down to take a photo a large blanket of clouds took away any good light but I was determined to wait this one out. This waiting game took far longer than I had hoped for and the rest of the family grew annoyed of having to wait....the never ending story of managing the hobby together with the family...not easy, that's for sure! I eventually got the light through a tiny break in the cloud cover and I really like how the colours of the heather, the sea and the lichen on the rocks brings this scenery alive...I just hope I won't feel like the weather is against me all the time during our next outing ;-)
The Laugavegur is a famous trekking route in South-West Iceland from the hot springs area of Landmannalaugar to the glacial valley of Þórsmörk . It is noted for the wide variety of landscapes on its 55 km (34 mi) path. The route is typically completed over 2–4 days with potential stops at the mountain huts at Hrafntinnusker, Álftavatn, Hvanngil and Emstrur. An ultramarathon is held on the route each July. It is possible to combine the trek with the Fimmvörðuháls route which goes over the pass from Þórsmörk to Skógar for an additional one or two days or an additional 25 km (16 mi). Landmannalaugar, Þórsmörk, and Skógar are all reachable by bus during the summer. A bus from Hella connects with Álftavatn once a day during the summer.

Those famous words, uttered by Dr. Strange in Marvel's Avengers Infinity War, have now become true for the big blue western railroad. Today, the railroad officially filed its intent to terminate its lease with the Surface Transportation Board. We are now down to the final months of the railroad. Need to make it a great final stand.
Finding an undamaged Rose around here in December is a difficult task, but one I love to take on. I didn’t find a beauty this day but did find a Rose that is lovely in its own slightly tattered way.
Have a Very Merry Christmas !

Reddish Egret (egretta rufescens) ~ Pinellas County, Florida
A small fish just moments before its demise courtesy of a reddish egret. Looking at the fish, there appears to be a final statement being made. Perhaps those words are, "I egret nothing!"
Thanks for visiting!
Pleiten, Pech und Pannen. Am 12. Februar 2023 hoffte ich auf eine geschlossene Schneedecke am bekannten Grünten-Motiv bei Altstädten. Vergeblich - zweistellige Plusgrade hatten der weißen Pracht bereits den Garaus gemacht. Auch vergeblich wartete ich auf den IC 2085 - die Zuglok 218 429 hatte in Kempten den Geist aufgegeben und die Fahrt fiel letztlich aus. So blieb ein Bild vom 612 149 als RE 7884 von München HBF nach Oberstdorf die einzige Ausbeute des Tages.
Bad luck and mishaps. On 12 February 2023, I was hoping for a blanket of snow at the famous Grünten motif near Altstädten. In vain - double-digit temperatures had already ruined the white splendour. I also waited in vain for IC 2085 - the locomotive 218 429 had broken down in Kempten and the journey was cancelled. So a picture of the 612 149 as RE 7884 from Munich HBF to Oberstdorf was the only result of the day.
Just a quick post from our FFF+ FotoWalk today. These Lava Lamps were for sale at the South Melbourne Market for $AUD28. (£16, $US22). I haven't seen Lava Lamps since the seventies!
Viewed from the Point Lonsdale jetty with the FFF+.
Back later to catch up, I have a lot on my plate today.

The field is not famous by a fight between the Austrians and the Napoleonic army. There are many kits rusty French soldiers. Fields made famous scene from the movie POSTRIZINY. Brewery manager with hands on top rides around and waits until there petrol
Pole se neproslavilo díky bitce mezi Rakušáky a Napoleonskou armádou. Nachází se tu mnoho rezavé výstroje francouzských vojáků. Pole proslavila scéna z filmu Postřižiny. Správce pivovaru s rukou nahoře jezdí dokola a čeká až nebude benzín

Thanks to the coronavirus, I find myself looking back at some of my old raw files and wondering what I can do with them now that I have more experience with photo editing. This is one example. Thanks for stopping by!

This photo of the famous Stonehenge was not taken by me. It was actually taken by my talented sister recently with her new iPhone XS Max while on vacation during November in London, England. This was the best picture she took out of hundreds of photos she took, so I asked if I could share on FLICKR and she agreed.
The famous words of Pontius Pilate might lead one to think there are no absolutes, and while that might be true of photography, where we can alter what comes out of a camera, there ARE absolutes in most everything in life.
This sky was much prettier than what my camera captured, which is why I took the shot in the first place. A little post processing, and now it's probably prettier than the actual scene was. What is Truth? The truth is there's a lot of beauty in this world, and we can choose to look up away from our cell phones and notice it, or not. God paints pretty pictures and I, for one, love to appreciate them!
If you notice the cloud formation towards the bottom in the center, you'll see it's quite unusual! I have no idea what kind of cloud that is. Anyone know?
Famous Hats or infamous ones, I am happy I never experienced one of these, I survived class room humiliation though, this was found at a Pioneer Village.
Schrodinger's cat is a famous theoretical thought experiment in quantum physics
If even remotely interested......
There's something called The Copenhagen Interpretation that posits that "things" at the subatomic level don't have any determined properties, only possibilities. A particle can be in two places at the same time, the atom can be in both an excited and unexcited state at the same time, and a photon can be both a particle and a wave.
What determines what we see is our measurement and observation,
Then all the probabilities collapse into one, the one being observed.
Schrodinger wasn't a fan of that theory, so he devised a thought experiment to show how absurd it would be to apply to the gross world of stuff.
He said imagine we put a cat in a box. Also in the box is a radioactive particle which might, or might not begin to decay and emit radiation. If it does, there's a gieger counter which will trigger the release of a noxious gas that will kill the cat.
Then we put a lid on the box.
But until someone opens the box, the cat is both alive and dead.
That's hugely oversimplified, but it's the layman's gist.
This little cat was sitting under a curb on a recessed sewer grate.
So,, is it coming or going or both?
I'm happy to say it was alive. ;-))
