This sim closed last night. Thankfully, I found out before had and went to get some last minute shots!
On the stone slabs of the panels in the Menin Gate, on the walls of the stairs and under the galleries, about 55 000 names of missing and unidentified persons from WOI....

Une autre vue du Golden gate de San Francisco. La brume habituelle sur une partie du pont.
Another view of the Golden Gate in San Francisco. The usual fog covering part of the bridge.
Strong gate - weak fence! I don’t know what this gate is protecting because the road back into the property seems to be the “road less traveled.” I’ll tell you one thing, by the time one gets finished reading all the signs the dog will be upon you. Apparently, you can’t do anything on this property. Everything fun is forbidden - how boring to live there. They do make signs now that say ‘Trespassers will be Violated’. At least a sign like that is good for a laugh.
There are several ways into this secret property. You could just climb the gate or cut the wire on the fence. I don’t believe that there is a dog, but I’m not that curious to see what is back this overgrown road. If it is a pristine Jaguar in a barn, I will be kicking myself later. If there is indeed a dog, you would see him coming a long ways away and be back over the gate before he gets in attack mode. HFF
The iconic house on the way to Molson Washington. I'm sure there must be hundreds of pictures of this house with as many compositions. My favourite one is the one with a cougar sitting on the porch, appearing to be looking at the photographer.
37884 rolls through Stanton Gate on the Erewash valley line, hauling 730027, with Colas Rail's 37116 (on hire to ROG) bringing up the rear. The train was 5Q99 10:11 Worksop Yd-Brush works - lucky with the sun as a cloud just cleared as the 37 was a couple of loco lengths further back.
The entrance to "Woodbrook" on the Balranald Road, Moulamein, NSW.
Moulamein, NSW (ABCTV Victorian viewing area)
This small town in the NSW Southern Riverina is at the junction of two rivers, the Edward River and Billabong Creek both of which have recently experienced severe flooding, the worst for many years, perhaps on record.
Flooding on the vast plains abutting the Murray River in the Riverina and northern Victoria is a slow motion affair often taking weeks to arrive from further upstream, rising slowly and falling slowly. They are no less devastating for that inundating many farms and threading to inundate stream side towns most of which are fairly well protected by levees (but not all of them).
The town of Moulamein has fared better than some in that the town itself has not been flooded but all points of access have been cut off to all but local 4WD vehicles. I was lucky enough to be able to get into town last week with my brother who lives on a farm south of the town doing so in his Toyota HiLux.
Featured here is flooding at the main gate of a property which abuts the Edward River several kilometres out of Moulamein.
Shihmen Dam (Chinese: 石門水壩; literally: "Stone Gate Dam"; also spelled Shimen or Shihman) is a rock fill dam across the Dahan Creek in northern Taoyuan City. The dam's main purposes are water supply, flood control and hydroelectricity generation, and it holds the Shihmen Reservoir (石門水庫), Taiwan's third largest reservoir and artificial lake. Completed in 1964, the dam and reservoir now supply water to more than three million people in northern Taiwan. However, sedimentation issues have impacted and continue to threaten safe dam operations.
The open gate was to a farmer's field. The closed gate to the left enabled us to continue on The South Downs Way. It is a very attractive area and a great place to walk.

Cloud Gate is a public sculpture by Indian-born British artist Sir Anish Kapoor. Constructed between 2004 and 2006, the sculpture is nicknamed The Bean because of its shape, a name Kapoor initially disliked, but later grew fond of. Made up of 168 stainless steel plates welded together, its highly polished exterior has no visible seams. It measures 33 by 66 by 42 feet (10 by 20 by 13 m), and weighs 110 short tons (100 tonnes or 98 long tons).
I was bowled over by this magnificent sculpture; there will be more photos, rest assured. This is a five photo stitch taken at the end of the sculpture.
