The Smile on Saturday theme is ORANGE! For those of us who have been teachers or parents or artists, this is a well known staple in the creative kit!
There are four orange possibilities in the photostream along with a collage of the four.

Here's a photo of the iconic lighthouse bathing in the early sunlight, I got there by 5:30am and had the lighthouse all to myself and one other photog. Walking around and finding this small puddle, I was super happy with even just a partial lighthouse reflection.
Many thanks to your visit, favs and comments; wishing you a wonderful holiday season!

London has two "high rise" districts, Canary Wharf, the new boy on the block out in East London, and what's called "the square mile", near the Bank of England, which is the old financial district of London and is still very vibrant today and continues to accrue some interesting new architecture. Here we see three of these iconic buildings from the square mile area - on the left, 52 Lime Street, called the Scalpel, in the centre, the Willis building, and on the right the Richard Rogers designed Lloyds building, the most well known and the oldest by quite some margin, having opened in 1985.
It would be interesting to know how many times the Lloyds building has been photographed. I know that i personally have added substantially to that sum as it's a building that I love to shoot, there's so much interesting detail.
The Landwasser Viaduct was constructed between 1901 and 1902 on behalf of the Rhaetian Railway, which both owns and operates it till today. The viaduct is part of the World Heritage-listed Albula Railway linking Thusis on the Hinterrhein (697 m) and Filisur (1,080 m) with St. Moritz in the Engadin (1,775 m). The Landwasser Viaduct is 65 m high and 136 m long. One of the striking features is its highly pronounced curve.
In 2009 the viaduct was renovated for the first time since its original construction.
Thank you for your visits / comments / faves!
I'll bet these are two of the most photographed building in the Old Town area of Stockholm. This is my version. Severely straightened and processed with textures.

The truly spectacular Quiraing is an icon of Scotland. Many people visit only the first short section of path. My intention was to walk around it, but heavy rain prevented me from doing so. A real shame, as the site is so spectacular.

Eilean Donan Castle is undoubtedly a Scottish icon and certainly one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Highlands. When you see it for the first time, it's easy to see why so many people flock to its sturdy gates year after year. Strategically located on its own little island, overlooking the Isle of Skye, at the meeting point of three great sea lakes, and surrounded by the majestic splendour of the wooded Kintail Mountains, Eilean Donan's setting is truly breathtaking.

A picture I took one morning of the iconic Maroon Bells at Maroon Lake as the sun started to rise and the stars began to disappear.
Almost abstract crop on a '41 Packard 120 Nose. Very oblique light exaggerates the shades.

The morning was looking very fall-ish with mist in the woods, leaves on the ground, and shades of orange.
3801 is a two-cylinder simple, non-condensing, superheated, ‘Pacific’ 4-6-2 express passenger steam locomotive. Operated by the New South Wales Government Railways between 1943 and 1976, it is arguably Australia's most famous steam locomotive. I took this shot at the 150th anniversary celebration of railways in New South Wales in 2005.
Here is a link to a video of these locos in action at the 150th Anniversary celebrations: www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1CAAsFBP2s

Another view of the icon of Stourhead the Palladian bridge and The Pantheon (Temple of Hercules). Wander around these lovely National Trust owned grounds at any time of the year but for me the autumn colours make for a splendid walk and photo opportunity of course.

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain. Valencia is located on the Costa del Azahar on the Mediterranean Sea and is considered the birthplace of paella, one of the most famous dishes in Spanish cuisine. Valencia is also known as the orange city. Valencia is Spain's third economic engine, after Madrid and Barcelona. Valencia was founded in 138 BC. under the name Valentia Edetanorum, by a Roman leader. Valencia has a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and very mild winters. Valencia, like the entire region of Valencia, is officially bilingual; they speak both Spanish and Valencian. Valencian is very closely related to Catalan. Spanish Valencia is more than beach and paella. The highlight that you do not want to miss are the modern buildings of Calatrava. The 'Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències' or 'the City of Arts and Sciences' is a cultural and scientific complex of seven special buildings designed by Calatrava and is located in the drained Turia River of Valencia. It includes Spain's finest aquarium L'Oceanographic, a planetarium, an IMAX theatre, a science museum and a striking event hall. This science park is definitely the number one attraction of Valencia!
The Science Museum - Ciències in Valencia presents scientific exhibitions that will surprise you from the moment you arrive. A Foucault pendulum hangs from the glass ceiling of the museum. This invention proves that the earth rotates on its own axis. The third floor is home to another major attraction: an array of flying machines, including a Mirage III, a reproduction of Gaspar Brunet's plane, which flew the first in Spain; and a model of an invention by Leonardo da Vinci. This is the great 21st century science museum to learn all about life, science and technology in a didactic, interactive and entertaining way. Full interactivity is one of its special features, with the motto: "Forbidden not to touch, not to feel, not to think". In order to generate a pleasant learning process in which the visitor always actively participates.
Valencia is twee na grootste stad van Spanje. Valencia ligt aan de Costa del Azahar aan de Middellandse Zee en geldt als geboorteplaats van de paella, een van de bekendste gerechten uit de Spaanse keuken. Valencia wordt ook wel de sinaasappelstad genoemd. Valencia is de derde economische motor van Spanje, na Madrid en Barcelona. Valencia werd gesticht in 138 v.Chr. onder de naam Valentia Edetanorum, door een Romeinse leider. Valencia heeft een mediterraan klimaat met warme zomers en zeer milde winters. Valencia is, net als de gehele regio Valencia, officieel tweetalig; men spreekt er zowel Spaans als Valenciaans. Het Valenciaans is zeer sterk verwant aan het Catalaans. Het Spaanse Valencia is meer dan strand en paella. Het hoogtepunt die je niet wilt missen zijn de moderne bouwwerken van Calatrava. Het Wetenschapsmuseum Ciències in Valencia stelt wetenschappelijke tentoonstellingen tentoon die u zullen verrassen vanaf het moment dat u aankomt. Een slinger van Foucault hangt aan het glazen plafond van het museum. Deze uitvinding bewijst dat de aarde om haar eigen as draait. De derde verdieping is de thuisbasis van een andere grote attractie: een reeks vliegmachines, waaronder een Mirage III, een reproductie van het vliegtuig van Gaspar Brunet, dat als eerste in Spanje vloog; en een model van een uitvinding van Leonardo da Vinci. Dit is het geweldige 21e-eeuwse wetenschapsmuseum om op een didactische, interactieve en vermakelijke manier alles te weten te komen over leven, wetenschap en technologie. Volledige interactiviteit is een van de speciale kenmerken, met als motto: "Verboden om niet aan te raken, niet te voelen, niet te denken". Om zo een aangenaam leerproces te genereren waarin de bezoeker altijd actief deelneemt.

This is probably the most photographed barn in Washington State
Built in 1974, the sign became known as the “gateway to the Cross”, featuring on music videos, TV, famous photographs and as a landmark meeting point.
Considered the largest billboard in the Southern Hemisphere at 41 metres long and 13 metres high, the sign is comprised of two sides – the right being the traditional red and white Coca-Cola sign and the left being a flex-faced sign that’s used to display the latest Coke campaigns.
