The Westmorland Dales In The Yorkshire Dales National Park

 

This is an area of tremendous history and there are stone circles, remains from the romans and medieval villages to be found.

 

In the Mallerstang valley you will find the atmospheric ruins of Pendragon Castle with its reputed connection to Uther Pendragon – the father of King Arthur. Towering over the castle is Wild Boar Fell where Sir Richard de Musgrave is thought to have killed the last wild boar in Britain. There could be something in this as his tomb is in Kirkby Stephen church and, when it was examined, in addition to his bones there were two wild boar tusks.

 

More modern history was created by the building of railways. The Settle to Carlisle railway cuts through the Westmorland Dales as part of its dramatic journey through the Dales with its stunning examples of Victorian engineering. There was also Stainmore Railway which was built to bring coal from the Tees Valley over to Cumbria for use in making iron. Although this railway closed in the 1960s it has left some tremendous reminders of its existence such as the viaducts over Podgill and Smardale and the station at Kirkby Stephen East.

A Great White Egret has been reported here on Saltmarsh Pool, since 1st November. Today was the first opportunity we have had to view it and were fortunate, on arrival at 10.30 am, to see it immediately.

 

Although there were several birders in Maryland Layby, it showed no nervousness and continued to hunt both on the Saltmarsh and the Pool … very active but continually under attack from the resident Lapwings and, to some degree, the Gulls - although all kept a healthy distance away, not pressing home the attack. Two Grey Heron were present and from time to time made sudden and determined attacks but it merely moved 20 or 30 yards and proceeded to feed again.

 

A large group of Snipe now resident on the Pool, were very wary of it and on its approach, quickly scuttled away or occasionally went into a couple of fear flights. Even Teal and Wigeon were clearly intimidated by its presence.

 

The Egret was clearly recognised as a strange and potentially dangerous interloper. Its dramatic stride and obvious height, coupled with its quickness, illustrated its potential as a hunter - obviously finding food in the grass, water and in the air. Its method in the water was to trample quite vigorously to stir up mud to release food - continuously pacing quickly forward - then backtracking.

 

We had a very entertaining couple of hours with this graceful adroit visitor to Campfield and have made a video of the session, as the weather and lighting conditions were good and presented a unique opportunity.

Smailholm Tower is located at Smailholm, around five miles (8 km) west of Kelso in the Scottish Borders. Its dramatic situation, atop a crag of Lady Hill, commands wide views over the surrounding countryside. The tower is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument in the care of Historic Scotland. In June 2007 it was awarded the maximum "five-star" status as a tourist attraction from VisitScotland, a rating bestowed on only eight other sites in Scotland.

The beautiful and now tranquil setting of Augustinian Lanercost Priory belies an often troubled history. Standing close to Hadrian's Wall, it suffered frequent attacks during the long Anglo-Scottish wars, once by Robert Bruce in person. The mortally sick King Edward I rested here for five months in 1306-7, shortly before his death on his final campaign.

 

The east end of the 13th-century church survives to its full height, housing within its dramatic triple tier of arches some fine monuments.

Le Bassin de Latone (Latona Fountain), located along the central east-west axis of the Versailles gardens between the Château and the Grand Canal, was designed by André Le Nôtre and first constructed between 1668 and 1670. Its dramatic sculptural centerpiece, executed by Gaspard and Balthazar Marsy, depicts Latona, mother of Apollo and Diana, shielding her children from Lycian peasants whom Jupiter transforms into frogs—an allegory reflecting royal authority and divine protection. The fountain’s structure features tiered marble basins surrounded by an abundance of sculpted figures, including frogs, turtles, and peasants mid-transformation, all arranged in concentric symmetry. Renovated in the 18th century and again in the 21st century, the fountain remains one of the most emblematic water features at Versailles, anchoring the Grande Perspective that stretches from the palace through the gardens to the horizon.

 

The Jardins du château de Versailles (Gardens of Versailles), a vast formal garden extending over nearly 800 hectares west of the château of Versailles, was originally designed by André Le Nôtre for Louis XIV between 1661 and 1700. Structured around a strict geometric axis and grand perspective, it features a meticulously organized layout of parterres, groves (bosquets), and the immense cross-shaped Grand Canal framed by clipped hedges and tree-lined paths. The garden is adorned with over 2100 sculptures, monumental fountains with mythological themes, and engineered waterworks that once powered elaborate hydraulic displays.

Canyonlands National Park in southeastern Utah is known for its dramatic desert landscape carved by the Colorado River. Island in the Sky is a huge, flat-topped mesa with panoramic overlooks. Other notable areas include the towering rock pinnacles known as the Needles, the remote canyons of the Maze and the Native American rock paintings in Horseshoe Canyon. Whitewater rapids flow through Cataract Canyon.

The Afghan Hound epitomizes elegance. This one-of-a-kind, historic canine breed stands out with its dramatic silky coat, unusual face, and slim, fashion-model physique. Aside from its appearance, Afghan fans describe this dog as both aloof and humorous.

 

The Afghan is a dog breed that originated in Afghanistan and was formerly known as Tazi. It is thought to date back to the pre-Christian era and is one of the oldest canine breeds. Afghan Hounds can be found in shelters or in the care of rescue groups, despite the fact that they are purebred canines. If you think this is the breed for you, consider adopting!

 

These dogs are affectionate and versatile, and they can live in almost any size home with any size family. However, you'll need to devote a significant amount of time to keeping that luscious coat, as well as enough of exercise to keep up with their high energy levels. You'll have a loving companion who will turn heads with their stunning appearance if you can provide the care they require.

 

This large, spacious crate is recommended by DogTime for giving your large Afghan a place to rest and unwind. For your long-haired dog, you should also get this dog brush and massager!

 

Is an Afghan Hound a good family dog?

The Afghan Hound has a low threshold for pain.

Rodeo Beach is one of the most stunning beaches available in California's Bay Area. It draws throngs of photographers who come for its dramatic sea-stacks and sheer cliffs. These were the things that captivated me most on previous visits, but this time, I was far more intrigued by the giant rocks that line the beach. I could not help but think that if the beach wasn't protected as part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, sculptors and artists would have taken these rocks long ago, for the beautiful veins and intricate patterns. But just sitting on the shore, they are reserved for the world's oldest sculptor, slowly and methodically being fashioned into a living work of art, unequaled by any carved by human hands.

Llao Llao, Río Negro: The jagged, mist-draped peaks of the Andes rise dramatically above the deep, obsidian waters of Nahuel Huapi Lake. This serene perspective captures the profound tranquility of the Patagonian wilderness, where the dense, temperate rainforest presses tightly against the shoreline. Soft, diffused daylight filters through the heavy cloud cover, muting the vibrant greens of the southern beech forests and emphasizing the rugged geological layers of the mountainside. The composition employs a natural framing technique, utilizing the overhanging boughs of native cypress trees to draw the eye toward the atmospheric depth of the distant, rain-kissed summits. Every element of the landscape reflects the iconic geography of the Nahuel Huapi National Park, an area celebrated for its dramatic transition from lush forest to towering glacial remnants. The absence of human presence in this frame allows the viewer to fully appreciate the raw, undisturbed scale of Argentina’s most storied lake district. Such vistas serve as a testament to the enduring allure of Patagonia, illustrating the region's unique ability to blend luxury accommodation with wild, untamed ecological beauty. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

Llao Llao, Río Negro: Los picos escarpados y cubiertos de niebla de los Andes se elevan dramáticamente sobre las aguas profundas y color obsidiana del lago Nahuel Huapi. Esta perspectiva serena captura la profunda tranquilidad de la naturaleza patagónica, donde la densa selva templada presiona contra la costa. La luz del día, suave y difusa, se filtra a través de la densa capa de nubes, silenciando los verdes vibrantes de los bosques de hayas del sur y enfatizando las escarpadas capas geológicas de la ladera. La composición emplea una técnica de encuadre natural, utilizando las ramas colgantes de los cipreses nativos para dirigir la mirada hacia la profundidad atmosférica de las cumbres distantes besadas por la lluvia. Cada elemento del paisaje refleja la geografía icónica del Parque Nacional Nahuel Huapi, un área celebrada por su transición dramática de bosque exuberante a imponentes restos glaciares. La ausencia de presencia humana en este encuadre permite al espectador apreciar plenamente la escala cruda e inalterada del distrito de los lagos más famoso de Argentina. Estas vistas sirven como testimonio del encanto perdurable de la Patagonia, ilustrando la capacidad única de la región para combinar el alojamiento de lujo con la belleza ecológica salvaje e indómita. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

Views from Podere al Salcio.

Podere al Salcio is an 18th century stone and brick country house originally built in the local tradition as a farming building, with animals in the low building on the left, haystack, granary and deposit on the ground floor of the main house. The first floor used to hosts the farmers' families.

It enjoys the most stunning views 360° degrees round, changing in colour throughout the day and seasons. Val d'Orcia is a Unesco World Heritage region for its dramatic beauty and untouched landscapes.

Extremely rare in cultivation, Nernstia mexicana is one of the most beautiful flowering plants in the world. Native to San Luis Potosí and Hidalgo, Mexico between ~1000-3600m elevation, this slow-growing shrub has tidy grey-green leaves with recurved margins and a matte finish. These serve as a perfect backdrop to its dramatic pure white trumpet flowers which emit a fantastic fragrance. This species has considerable horticultural potential and it is my hope that it will someday be available to plant collectors and gardeners in all climates suitable to its cultivation.

 

Nernstia mexicana belongs to the Coffee-Gardenia family (Rubiaceae) and more specifically to the Portlandiinae subtribe of the Chiococceae tribe, which means that it is a close relative to other glamorous genera such as Osa and Portlandia.

Iceland, a Nordic island nation, is defined by its dramatic volcanic landscape of geysers, hot springs, waterfalls, glaciers and black-sand beaches. The capital, Reykjavik, home to the majority of the population, runs on geothermal power and offers a renowned nightlife scene as well as Viking history museums. The glaciers in Vatnajökull and Snæfellsnes national parks are popular for ice climbing, hiking and snowmobiling.

Ronda is known for its dramatic location, built on a mountain plateau bisected by the El Tajo Gorge.

This elegant and refined specimen ornamental is prized for its dramatic and attractive foliage changes. It’s deeply divided leaves flush bright red in spring and then gradually turn purplish in fall. It is a magnificent heirloom tree renowned for it’s graceful and charming presence.

Calvary — or more specifically First Calvary, the part south of the Long Island Expressway and west of the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway — is best admired for its dramatic setting: tucked in among highways, residential neighborhoods, industrial buildings and Newtown Creek, with views of Manhattan rising as a backdrop.

The best views are from Sections 7 and 48 — use the posted map to help you. Section 7 is more spectacular, as elegant obelisks and other monuments point skyward in the foreground, blending in seamlessly with the skyscrapers of Midtown far beyond, as if Ms. Chrysler and Mr. E. S. Building were buried in the distance. Section 48 has cleaner city views, but its headstones are mostly smaller and simpler, reducing the drama quotient.

St. Dominic's Church is one of the intriguing performance venues for the yearly held Macau International Music Festival (MIMF) . Despite its dramatic past, St. Dominic's Church now serves as a serene, inviting setting for performances attended over the years by almost half a million music lovers.

 

St. Dominic's Church has an imposing façade of cream-coloured stone with white stucco mouldings and green-shuttered windows. Inside, white pillars support a flat ceiling and apron balconies hug the walls. The bell tower, at the back of the building, has been converted into a small museum housing a “Treasure of Sacred Art” exhibiting a collection of some 300 artifacts.

 

White Sands National Monument is in the northern Chihuahuan Desert in the U.S. state of New Mexico. It's known for its dramatic landscape of rare white gypsum sand dunes. Trails through the dunes include the raised Interdune Boardwalk and the Dune Life Nature Trail, dotted with interpretive exhibits on wildlife and other features. Dunes Drive is a looped road from the White Sands Visitor Center to the dune field.

The Düsseldorf Media Harbor, or Medienhafen, is a striking example of urban regeneration that has transformed a derelict industrial port into one of the city's most fashionable and dynamic districts. Once a bustling commercial harbor filled with warehouses and disused buildings, the area began its dramatic makeover in the 1990s. City planners embarked on a strategic project to rejuvenate the waterfront, focusing on a plot-by-plot approach that blended new, avant-garde architecture with the preservation of historic industrial elements. The result is a vibrant hub that seamlessly combines the old and the new, attracting both locals and tourists with its unique atmosphere and creative energy.

 

The architectural landscape of the Medienhafen is its most prominent feature, showcasing the works of some of the world's most renowned architects. The most iconic structures are undoubtedly the "Gehry Buildings," officially known as the Neuer Zollhof. Designed by the visionary Frank O. Gehry, these three asymmetrical, sculptural high-rises—clad in stainless steel, red brick, and white plaster—have become a symbol of modern Düsseldorf. Other notable buildings include the Colorium, with its eye-catching kaleidoscopic glass facade by William Alsop, and the sleek Stadttor by Helmut Jahn. These architectural masterpieces stand alongside renovated historic warehouses, creating a visually captivating and diverse urban environment that has made the area a must-see for architecture enthusiasts.

 

Beyond its architectural appeal, the Media Harbor is a thriving economic center. As its name suggests, it is home to over 800 companies, primarily from the media, advertising, and creative sectors. The area's revitalization was driven by a vision to create a hub for these industries, and the project has been a resounding success. The modern office buildings and refurbished industrial spaces provide a unique and inspiring setting for creative work. This concentration of innovative firms has not only revitalized the district but has also solidified Düsseldorf's reputation as a major player in Germany's creative economy.

 

The cultural and leisure offerings in the Medienhafen are as diverse as its architecture. The waterfront is lined with a variety of trendy cafes, upscale restaurants, and vibrant bars, catering to the district's sophisticated crowd. Visitors can enjoy a wide range of culinary experiences, from Mediterranean cuisine and gourmet burgers to fine dining with stunning views of the Rhine River. The area is also a popular spot for leisure activities, whether it's a stroll along the promenade, a sightseeing cruise on the river, or simply enjoying the lively atmosphere. The fusion of business and pleasure makes the Medienhafen a destination where people can work, dine, and relax in style.

 

In essence, the Düsseldorf Media Harbor is a testament to the power of thoughtful urban redevelopment. It has successfully transformed an aging industrial zone into a modern, stylish, and economically significant district. By preserving its historical character while embracing cutting-edge architecture and new industries, the Medienhafen has created a unique identity. It stands as a symbol of Düsseldorf's reinvention and a vibrant, forward-looking neighborhood that attracts a mix of creatives, business professionals, and tourists alike, all drawn to its dynamic blend of art, commerce, and culture.

Kirkjufell, or 'Church Mountain', is a distinctly shaped peak found on the north shore of Iceland’s Snæfellsnes Peninsula, only a short distance away from the town of Grundarfjörður. It is often called ‘the most photographed mountain in Iceland’ due to its dramatic formation and perfect coastal location.

Winter Landscape by Li Shan (active ca. 1150–1200)

China

 

Despite the invasion of North China in 1127 by the Jurchen Jin dynasty (1115–1234), which brought to an end the reign of the Northern Song (960–1127), northern Chinese landscape painters held fast to their traditions, often employing an eclectic mix of exaggerated techniques derived from earlier masters. This evocative winter scene, with its dramatic windswept trees, sharply contrasting ink tones, and diagonally divided composition, bears the hallmarks of a Jin-period work. A modern label attributing it to the Jin artist Li Shan supports this assessment.

Iceland is sometimes called "The Land of Contrasts" for the rich, sharp colours of its mountains, rocks and vegetation, its dramatic waterfalls, glaciers and geysers, its massive ice and its hot springs for bathing and space heating. Iceland measures 103,000 km2 in area but less than one-quarter has any vegetation cover. Glaciers cover 12%, lava fields 11% and lakes 3%, while 54% is barren rock and sand.

Dunes Drive is a looped road from the White Sands Visitor Center to the dune field.
