Looking east down the nave & north aisle rebuilt in 14c . The nave was heightened in 15c with clerestory windows and a five-light window over a new chancel arch. The doorway to the now lost rood loft can be seen behind the pulpit. The south arcades and aisle are late 12c. The north arcades are c1300
The chancel survives from the earlier church thought to have been built in the 1070s by Robert d'Oilly in cruciform design. - Church of St Peter, Hook Norton Oxfordshire
This lone hook sits attached to the rear wall of the Stewart Livery Stable (1909) in Inglewood, Calgary. An amazing building!!
Here's some history on it:
This rare example of an early Calgary livery barn was built in 1909 for James A. Stewart, one of the proprietors of the Grand Union Livery in downtown Calgary. Livery stables rented horses adn vehicles, and provided a place for people from out of town to shelter their horses while in the city. A local contractor, R.A. Brocklebank, constructed the two storey building according to up-to-date ideas in barn design. The gambrel roof allowed for maximum storage space for feed and equipment, and the timber frame construction followed the trend away from heavy timbert to standard dimensional lumber.
By 1915, the barn had become a feed and sale barn. As automobiles replaced horses, livery barns such as this became obsolete. From 1925 until the early 1940s, and independent mail contracting company which delivered and picked up the mail for the Post Office, used the barn as a garage for their fleet of trucks. Since 1952, the Stewart Livery Stable has been used for storage.
We were given a phone number for a local mobile home park when we asked at a service station about local RV parks. They only had a few RV spots but the owner drove over to where we were to lead us back to a spot and then only charged us $15 for one night with full hookups. That's half what we usually pay so we were happy. GoPro still shot.
Had no new pictures to process so got around to some old ones. This is a HDR from a while back I just never really worked on it. Think it's ok for a HDR considering I usually try to keep it as minimal as possible.

First established in the 12th centuary,this is one of the oldest Lighthouses in Europe.
The last lighthouse keepers were withdrawn in 1996, and the station is now fully automated.
The houses of the former lighthouse keepers have now been converted into a heritage / visitor centre, which is one of the foremost tourist attractions in the South East. See www.hookheritage.ie

This was a rural public footpath, converted to a wind farm. Something very other worldly about it now with 5 huge 125m turbines, but still a lovely walk and quite dramatic on a windy day
Hook of Holland... I caught a ferry from here to Harwich once ages ago as a backpacking college student.
