There is no pier.
They look for the best place to disembark and board small boats. The smaller boats take us to the yacht, Galápagos Shark II.
We will sail to Mosquera Island between the islands, North Seymour and South Seymour (Baltra Island).

If he comes to your door on Halloween just throw a bunch of marshmallows at him.
He LOVES toasted marshmallows.

The Lord Line building opened in 1949 and was at the heart of Hull’s fishing industry. Sadly up to the 1980’s, 6000 fishermen lost their lives at the hands of the sea. The Lord Line building began winding down in 1975 when the dock closed and became completely derelict in 1990. Several fires have damaged parts of the building since 2010.
Lord Burghley’s Hospital consists of a historic set of almshouses situated beside the River Welland in the Stamford Baron area across the river from Stamford’s town centre and close to Stamford Bridge.

Today the almshouse is still in use and is home to both men and women who have lived and worked in Stamford for a number of years.

A Christmas family scene window display at Lord & Taylor!! I had promised you to post L&T's window displays and realized that this years theme at L&T is the same as last years. I guess they change the theme every two years or so. Lord & Taylor after displaying and season is over, they donate every to a charity to be auctioned. I think this is a very noble concept!! Don't you!!
To see more of my shots of the window displays you can browse my 2008 set at:

This 'Saxon lord' was a living example of Saxon life at the Butser Ancient Farm, where they have recreated structures from various periods. Such a lovely place to visit.
Ganesha or Ganesh, also known as Ganapati and Vinayaka, is one of the best-known and most worshipped deities in the Hindu pantheon. His image is found throughout India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Bali (Indonesia) and Bangladesh and in countries with large ethnic Indian populations including Fiji, Mauritius and Trinidad and Tobago. Hindu denominations worship him regardless of affiliations.Devotion to Ganesha is widely diffused and extends to Jains and Buddhists.
Although he is known by many attributes, Ganesha's elephant head makes him easy to identify.Ganesha is widely revered as the remover of obstacles, the patron of arts and sciences and the deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rites and ceremonies. Ganesha is also invoked as patron of letters and learning during writing sessions. Several texts relate mythological anecdotes associated with his birth and exploits.
Ganesha likely emerged as a deity as early as the 1st century CE,but most certainly by the 4th and 5th centuries CE, during the Gupta period, although he inherited traits from Vedic and pre-Vedic precursors. Hindu mythology identifies him as the restored son of Parvati and Shiva of the Shaivism tradition, but he is a pan-Hindu god found in its various traditions. In the Ganapatya tradition of Hinduism, Ganesha is the supreme deity. The principal texts on Ganesha include the Ganesha Purana, the Mudgala Purana, and the Ganapati Atharvashirsa. Brahma Purana and Brahmanda Purana are other two Puranic genre encyclopaedic texts that deal with Ganesha.

The Lord Howe Island Group is an outstanding example of oceanic islands of volcanic origin containing a unique biota of plants and animals, as well as the world’s most southerly true coral reef. It is an area of spectacular and scenic landscapes encapsulated within a small land area, and provides important breeding grounds for colonies of seabirds as well as significant natural habitat for the conservation of threatened species. Iconic species include endemics such as the flightless Lord Howe Woodhen (Gallirallis sylvestris), once regarded as one of the rarest birds in the world, and the Lord Howe Island Phasmid (Dryococelus australis), the world’s largest stick insect that was feared extinct until its rediscovery on Balls Pyramid.

Another from that perfect day on Lord Howe Island.
I went to LHI as part of a fundraising trip for the Climate Council of Australia:

Due to the new Pawtucket Station construction project Providence and Worcester PR3 made a rare trip down the Amtrak Shore Line down to Groton on Thursday and Friday. Here we see Friday's PR-3 heading east by Lord's Point in Stonington, CT.
Imagine a tiny outcrop in the Pacific Ocean, covered in lush greenery, surrounded by aquamarine waters home to an untouched coral reef teeming with marine life, where only 400 visitors are allowed at any one time. It’s little wonder National Geographic named Lord Howe Island one of the world’s best destinations, and it's only one hour's flying time from where I live.

Lord Shiva is one of the principal deities in Hinduism, revered as the "Destroyer" in the holy trinity, or Trimurti, which also includes Brahma (the Creator) and Vishnu (the Preserver). Shiva is a complex and multifaceted god, embodying both ascetic and householder aspects. He is often depicted with a third eye, a crescent moon on his head, and a snake wrapped around his neck. His primary consort is Parvati, and together they have two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya.
Some key aspects of Lord Shiva include:
The Destroyer and Transformer: While he is known as the destroyer, his role is to remove the old and make way for transformation and new creation.
Meditation and Asceticism: Shiva is often shown in deep meditation, symbolizing detachment and spiritual wisdom.
Lord of Dance (Nataraja): One of the most famous representations of Shiva is as Nataraja, the cosmic dancer, who is believed to represent the cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Symbols:
Trident (Trishul): Represents the three forces of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Damaru (Drum): Symbolizes the cosmic sound and rhythm of the universe.
Ganga: The river goddess Ganga, which flows from his matted hair, signifies purity and divine flow.
Blue Throat: This is due to the legend where Shiva drank the poison during the churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan) to protect the world.
The federal government's response to the Hurricane Katrina disaster stands as a testament to Our Leader's ability to pick the right people for the vitally important job of blaming Democrats for the Administration's failures.

My prayer goes to those who were affected by the latest massive earthquake in China. It was reported to be as strong as 7.9 magnitude and almost 9,000 now were reported dead and 10,000 injured.
Once again in charge of a Statesman tour - 47593 is pictured heading South at Forteviot on 21/10/2019. This was the Southbound return working of the Statesman Rail 'Lord of the Isles' excursion that gave passengers the chance to spend 3 days on the luxury train as it travelled up the East Coast and through the Highlands to Inverness and Kyle. 47810 was assiting on the rear.
This was a new spot for me but familiar territory for the loco. This loco was in the batch of Class 47's delivered new to Haymarket depot in 1965 (as D1973) and has made numerous trips up and down the Highland Main Line during it's time as a Scottish loco. It now spends it's days hauling railtours and excursions such as this.
We have a few Baltimore Orioles coming to our backyard this year. They keep coming almost daily which is a treat for us. They now feel somewhat comfortable with us sitting on the deck and they will perch in our taller cedars to watch us before they go to the feeder. The name for these birds apparently comes from the resemblance to the black and orange colors of Lord Baltimore’s coat of arms. Eventually, most of the birds will be renamed in the next few years. That is the plan. I wonder what name he will have next.

The "Lord of Darkness" strikes again! HA!
I saw on one of the Nikon sites that someone posted that title to go along with the D3S, and I suppose it fits me and what I like to photograph at Disney very well. ;-)
Yes I posted a similar shot of this scene a while ago, but this is a completely different frame, and if you look at it large you will see just how sharp this shot is along with some amazing details, especially with the ghost on the right.
Thanks for looking. Oh, BTW...this was NOT a ride stoppage! I shot this while the Doom Buggy was moving. :-D
