A large cedar of Lebanon sat obstinately in front of the Great Pagoda.

 

These elegant and stately trees would have first arrived in the UK in the mid 17th century and therefore, back in the 1840s this tree might still have been regarded as an exotic rarity. It probably dates from about 1760.

 

Perhaps for these reasons, Nesfield left it where it was and where it remains to this day.

 

A mature cedar of Lebanon can exceed 35m in height and has nearly horizontal branches which add greatly to its aesthetic appeal.

 

They are native to the Eastern Mediterranean and have always been commercially valuable due to their excellent wood, which is hard, resilient, reddish-orange and delightfully fragrant.

 

Cedars can withstand both hard winters and dry summers and thus may prove to be resilient to climate change.

The Cedars of God (Arabic: أرز الربّ‎‎ Arz ar-Rabb "Cedars of the Lord") is one of the last vestiges of the extensive forests of the Lebanon cedar, that once thrived across Mount Lebanon in ancient times. Their timber was exploited by the Phoenicians, Israelites, Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Romans, and Turks.

On one of my trips to Lebanon to visit family members, this scene captured my eyes.... It was a November scene where the tree colors take on the fall foliage. The cloud was charged but it had some peeks of lights going through it. The assortment of light and distant rainbow made for a beautiful nature painting.

Brant's Hardware has been a running family business since 1929.

The Golden Lamb Inn is the oldest hotel in Ohio. It was established in Lebanon, Ohio, in 1803.

 

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 12, 1978.

 

Lebanon is located on the old road between Cincinnati and Columbus. For this reason, many notables have visited the inn. The Golden Lamb has been visited by twelve American Presidents: William Henry Harrison, Benjamin Harrison, John Quincy Adams, Martin Van Buren, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, Warren G. Harding, William Howard Taft, Ronald Reagan, and George W. Bush.

 

Other famous guests include Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Daniel Webster, Robert A. Taft, and Lord Stanley, who later became prime minister of the United Kingdom.

Landscaped gardens and tree plantings by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown

The new statue in front of the Solid Rock Church in Lebanon, Ohio. In 2012, this statue, titled Lux Mundi (Light of the World), replaced the former statue, officially titled King of Kings. The latter had a number of nicknames due to various aspects of the statue itself, most famously:

 

Touchdown Jesus due to the pose of the statue, which resembled the signal that an American football referee uses to indicate a touchdown; and

 

Butter Jesus due to the color of the statue, which was made of styrofoam coated with fiberglass.

 

The latter was destroyed in 2010 in a lightning strike that set it on fire, leaving only a metal frame. US media had a lot of fun with this. One headline was "Butter Jesus is Toast," and others claimed that even God himself disliked the statue.

 

Wikipedia says that the new statue, also known as Hug Me Jesus is made of polymer composite and steel, and was mainly fabricated by Display Dynamics of Clayton, Ohio. Since the original statue at Solid Rock Church was destroyed by fire, the new statue incorporates fire resistant materials including a lightning suppression system. Following several months of work, the major pieces of the statue were assembled together at the site on September 19, 2012, and it was dedicated eleven days later.

BNSF 282 leads train H-STLTUL westbound on the BNSF Cuba Sub in Lebanon, MO. This is a shot almost 9 or 10 years in the making, as I typically am only here about once a year to go trout fishing in nearby Bennett Spring State Park, and trains are normally very hard to snag here.

This photo was shot on a sunny but cold winter day on Kodak Gold 200 in 135 (35mm) format. It was developed and digitized at home by yours truly. This is part of my continuing quest to achieve the best results possible from film at the lowest possible investment of production time and money. I'm not there yet, but I am quite happy with the improvements so far.
