The remains of one of the about 300 celtic tumuli in the small area east of Kaiserslautern and south of the Donnersberg mountain. During the Celtic La Tène period, around 150 BC, an important settlement (oppidum) was built on the Donnersberg, covering some 240 hectares.
It is easy to understand why the tumuli can still be seen. It is a forest area, no settlements or ploughs.
Framing with a box camera is a challenge. The "brilliant finder" is everything but brilliant, you have to frame in your head and use darker parts (the tree in the foreground) as guidance. Shooting freehand is easy with modern ISO 800 films, but must have been only possible in full sunlight with contemporary ISO 25 films.
I refused to raise contrast or other values here.
Lighthouses mean peace and peace of mind to me. They mean instruction and guidance on where to go. They flash and show light. Light. I'm currently listening to The Moody Blues: nights in white satin.
Castle De Haar is one of the most famous and visited castles in all of Holland and was originally founded in the late 1300’s by the Van de Haar family, whose standing in society allowed them the comfort of building a fortified abode.
By 1449, the castle became the property of the Van Zuylen family thru marriage. In 1482, the castle was destroyed due to differences of opinion (quarrels) between the city of Utrecht and its bishop
By the 17th century, the Van Zuylen family line had become extinct and the castle was inherited by the Van Stembors, who originated from the south of Holland - present day Belgium. French soldiers attacked and damaged the castle during the years 1672 and 73.
In 1801, Castle De Haar passed to JJ.van Zuylen van Nijevelt, a distant cousin of the Zuylen family. JJ had inherited a castle that was in a poor state of repair due to 200 years of neglect. Upon his death, these magnificent ruins passed to his son Baron Etienne van Zuylen van Nijevelt in 1890.
The rebuilding of the castle was started in 1892 under the guidance of one of Holland’s most famous architects Dr PHJ Cuypers. It is his influence on Castle De Haar that we see today. PHJ Cuypers rebuilt the castle as close as possible to the original outlines and were there was not sufficient material to work with he used his own ideas of what a medieval castle should look like. The interior was rebuilt to a luxurious standard with the inclusion of electricity. A new bailey with an entrance gate was built on its original foundations.
Today the castle is surrounded by parkland but this was not always the case. From the medieval period to the end of the 19th century, the village of Haarzuilens had been surrounded the castle. Haarzuilens was completely demolished and relocated some one and a half kilometres away to the west. The village chapel however was saved from this wilful destruction and incorporated into the new park.
Castle De Haar is now a museum and opens to the public except during the month of September when the Van Zuylen van Nijevelt family turn it back into a home for their month long stay.

“I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor”

MNNR 83 heads down Cleveland Street to the run around track under the guidance of Minnesota Commercial's Alco Adam at the throttle. The crew decided to stop and strategically place a bunny balloon on the locomotives nose once they discovered they had an audience.
While the team was working on their larger piece, they had a small section of parking lot which their youngest member could design her own work.

Dine with Shamu can be a bit tricky for sharp shots because mostly the only option is to shoot through the glass, so this isn't quite a good as I'd liked it to be, but I love seeing these two together.
Our Dine with Shamu on this trip, was a lot better than our previously one at Orlando. We dined with Katina's family, with the two kids working together and Katina performing some impressive aerial behaviours.
