Zwischen dem Großmeisterpalast und der Kirche Panagia tou Kastrou erstreckt sich mit der Odos Ippoton bzw. Ritterstraße auf eine Länge von etwa 250 Metern eine der wohl besterhaltenen mittelalterlichen Straßen Europas.
Hier reihen sich einige imposante Gebäude aneinander, die alle einheitlich aus ockerfarbenem Stein errichtet wurden und größtenteils aus dem 15. und 16. Jahrhundert stammen, als Rhodos der Hauptsitz des Johanniterordens.
Between the Palace of the Grand Masters and the Church of Panagia tou Kastrou, the Odos Ippoton or Street of the Knights, one of the best-preserved medieval streets in Europe, stretches for about 250 meters.
Here are a number of imposing buildings, all of the same ocher stone, dating mostly from the 15th and 16th centuries, when Rhodes was the headquarters of the Order of Saint John

Body armor, also known as body armour, personal armor or armour, or a suit or coat of armor, is protective clothing designed to absorb or deflect physical attacks. Historically used to protect military personnel, today it is also used by various types of police (riot police in particular), private security guards or bodyguards, and occasionally ordinary civilians. Today there are two main types: regular non-plated body armor for moderate to substantial protection, and hard-plate reinforced body armor for maximum protection, such as used by combat soldiers.
Plate armour is a historical type of personal body armour made from bronze, iron, or steel plates, culminating in the iconic suit of armour entirely encasing the wearer. Full plate steel armour developed in Europe during the Late Middle Ages, especially in the context of the Hundred Years' War, from the coat of plates worn over mail suits during the 14th century.
In Europe, plate armour reached its peak in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The full suit of armour, also referred to as a panoply, is thus a feature of the very end of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period. Its popular association with the "medieval knight” is due to the specialised jousting armour which developed in the 16th century.
Full suits of Gothic plate armour were worn on the battlefields of the Burgundian and Italian Wars. The most heavily armoured troops of the period were heavy cavalry, such as the gendarmes and early cuirassiers, but the infantry troops of the Swiss mercenaries and the Landsknechts also took to wearing lighter suits of "three quarters" munition armour, leaving the lower legs unprotected.

Silence reigned over the castle that night. Once the screams of fear had stopped, only the sounds of the forest echoed in the darkness until the sounds of hooves and iron were heard on the pavement of the ruins, the Dark Knight had struck

Knights Ferry is a town in Stanislaus County, California. It is about 40 miles (64 km) east of Modesto on the Stanislaus River. Nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, it was an important mining town during the gold rush. It is home to the longest covered bridge west of the Mississippi at 330 feet (100 m) in length.[1] Today, it is home to a museum about the history of the town and also about local wildlife. The towns ruins include a mill and a prison.
Knights Ferry is the "put in" location for Class I-II rafting trips on the Stanislaus River. Rafting most often occurs through the months of May through October. Water in the lower Stanislaus is discharged from the base of Goodwin Dam, resulting in clear and cold water even in the warmest months of summer.
A lone knight enters the dragon valley at sunset, overlooking the valley on top of the mountain is a mysterious keep, nobody dares to approach, for the dragons are guarding it, rumor has it that many treasures are hidden there.

This was a fun one. I am starting to understand night sky photography takes practice and forethought. Just showing up to a strange location at 3am thinking you’re going to nail an amazing keeper is not really reality. I'm still learning, making mistakes on this Milky Way stuff, was happy to pull this one off.
This is twenty-three (10 second) exposures stacked in Sequator.
