Heaven Ocean Green Backdrop - The Bearded Guy
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.
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.

Almost abstract crop on a '41 Packard 120 Nose. Very oblique light exaggerates the shades.

Vintage, rustic-style entrance sign on Highway 61 at Gooseberry Falls State Park. This sign is one of my earliest memories of the North Shore.
The park is located in Castle Danger, about ten miles north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on the North Shore of Lake Superior. It is one of Minnesota's most popular and treasured state parks.
It was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the late 1930's/early 1940's as part of the New Deal getting men back to work during the Great Depression. There are several awesome historic buildings here along with lots of trails, many feet of rocky Lake Superior shoreline, a campground (book a year ahead of time for summer camping!), an awesome picnic area with CCC-built tables still in place and lots more.
It's a "must stop" place if you are going anywhere on the North Shore.
The Bixby Bridge is one of the most photographed bridges in the country. It is located about 15 miles south of Carmel, California along the Big Sur.

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

Brownstone townhouses.The shot was taken on 46th St between 8th and 9th Avenues in Manhattan,a Hell's Kitchen neighborhood.Barbetta is an iconic Northern Italian Restaurant that opened in 1906.There was a 3-alarm fire there once back in 2013.It took 105 firefighters to put the fire out in one hour,150 diners were safely evacuated.Bill and Hillary Clinton are regular diners there.
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.
Port-en-Bessin (France) - Ce marin-pêcheur amarre son coquillard au quai. Dans quelques instants, la cargaison de coquilles-saint-jacques sera débarquée.
Pour compléter la série faite de plans larges de navires qui passent l’écluse après une nuit passée à racler les fonds marins, place à un plan plus serré d’un marin-pêcheur.
Ces professionnels de la mer font un métier difficile, très physique. Ils sont engagés dans une lutte incessante contre les éléments, souvent au péril de leur vie.
Cependant, contrairement à une idée largement répandue, ils gagnent très bien leur vie ; du capitaine au mousse. L’organisation à bord est collective et tous les membres d’équipage touchent un pourcentage sur les ventes. L’image iconique du marin attiré par une insatiable soif de l’aventure n’est plus ce qu’elle était.
Port-en-Bessin (France) - This fisherman moors his coquillard to the quay. In a few moments, the cargo of scallops will be unloaded.
Following wide shots of ships returning to port after a night spent scraping the seabed, a closer shot of a fisherman was essential.
Fishermen certainly have a difficult and very physical job. They are engaged in an incessant struggle against the elements, often at the risk of their lives.
However, contrary to a very widely held idea, they earn a very good living; from captain to ship's boy. The organization on board is collective and all crew members receive a percentage of the catch. The iconic image of the sailor drawn by an insatiable thirst for adventure is no longer what it used to be.
Highway 97-Kittitas County-Washington State
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.

I took this several years ago near Yellowstone National Park. The Grand Teton Mountain Range is in the background.
It is a composite of two images, one, a texture, by Distressed Jewel, and the other, the original photo.
