Sir William Hill.
After Padley I had a wander around Surprise View and came back to the car park via Millstone Edge. Very cloudy with the odd break letting the sun peep through.
This was taken near the foot of Millstone Edge, looking over to Sir William Hill. It was supposed to be a five shot pano but the fifth shot to the right wouldn't stitch. I still quite like the light though even if the image looks slightly unbalanced to me.
Gambling was a very serious activity and often there was a lot at stake. For example, the Roman soldiers gambled for Jesus' clothes after they had crucified him. The Roman soldiers also often found gambling more important than standing guard! When faced with difficult choices, the Romans liked to put fate in the hands of the dice. The word 'dice' comes from the game 'dicing'. Gambling is derived from the French 'doble', which means double. willemwever.kro-ncrv.nl/vraag_antwoord/geschiedenis/wie-h...

Here's one that I've had around since our road trip to Florida last April. Built in the 1840s, this antebellum mansion, located in Ellenton, Florida, near Bradenton, was the home of Major Robert Gamble, who oversaw an extensive sugar plantation. At its peak, the plantation included 3,500 acres, and Gamble likely held more than 200 slaves to work the property and process the sugarcane, according to Wikipedia. The structure is said to be the only surviving plantation house in South Florida.

I have seen many birds fluffed out but never quite as much as this Gamble’s Quail. There are a few reasons why birds do this, according to the internet: To look more threatening; to stay warm; to cool down; courtship ritual. By process of elimination, I would say this guy was trying to impress the ladies.
Gambling is popular in desperate times. There is a report today talking about online gambling so to me as attractive as this building is your money is better used elsewhere.
Going through some unprocessed photos and found this one. I don't normally see them in trees. They are birds and they fly so one in a tree should not be that unusual.
I just discovered this place a couple of weeks ago and it has become my new favourite place. I say "discovered" but I had actually been to the park that it's in many times to attend the Highland Games (love bagpipes so much!). However, I had never ventured over to the far side of the park where this beautiful pond area is.
The pond is home to a lot of different birds including many species of ducks, Canada geese, american coots, red-winged blackbirds, yellow-headed blackbirds, marsh wrens and song sparrows. I'm no birder but it's lovely to sit on a bench near the pond and watch & listen. I was also delighted to see a couple of muskrats. First time I've ever seen one.

Under dirty ceilings a row of bright lusters
And enormous oil-lamps casting their rays
On the tenebrous brows of distinguished poets
Who come there to squander the blood they have sweated;
Insert from "Le Jeu" by Charles Baudelaire

A six minute exposure of Loch Katrine and Ben Venue.
The climb up Ben A'an for sunset wasn't rewarded with much in the way of good light, but it's a decent view from the top nonetheless.
A big part of landscape photography is, of course, gambling on the weather. If you only head out with your camera when the forecast's perfect, something I'm often guilty of, all your shots will end up looking the same and you're likely to miss out on the really dramatic light that comes before, after, and sometimes during, storms and rain showers.
On the other hand you can easily end up with overcast skies, not much light to work with and a climb down a mountain in near darkness as your reward.
So you just enjoy the walk, appreciate the view as it is and vow to come back.
Next time.
