Hawa Mahal is made of red and pink, red stone and is a fusion of Rajput and Islamic styles of architecture. These systematically built red domed canopies with golden tip and the arches pictured against clear beautiful blue sky are very eye catching!

This historic building can be found at Exeter Quay side. Built in 1680 it handled the trade along the River Exe and is now a visitor centre. It apparently is the oldest brick building to survive in Exeter. The canons in the front are popular with the kids. There's some yummy ice cream just opposite this building from where I was taking the photo (Salted caramel and chocolate are the favourites!).
A real challenge to get these timid birds to venture out in the open...
Dutch:Waterral (Rallus aquaticus)
With a combined service life of over eight decades, a pair of 1979-built EMD SD40-2s - still in their iconic factory-delivered "multimark" paint scheme - are seen hustling train 3BAL along CPKC‘s Aldersyde Subdivision near Kirkcaldy, Alberta.
Although once ubiquitous as mainline power, today, these fan-favorite locomotives have largely been relegated to work train and yard unit status. Occasionally, as evidenced on this particular day, work trains will have mixed freight tacked on to the head-end, giving the illusion of a typical road train of days gone by; harkening back to a time when the SD40-2s were king.
Crouched down in the water in Pucks Glen I was nicely sheltered from Storm Dennis, and while there grabbed this shot below the swollen river tumbling over rocks. The shot isn't quite as sharp as I would like due to the water hammering against the legs of the tripod..

**Prompt :**
Un être extraterrestre humanoïde à la peau texturée, fine et légèrement translucide, avec des nuances gris-ocre et des veines subtilement visibles, se tient au premier plan d’un paysage désertique alien baigné d’une lumière dorée de fin de journée. Son crâne est allongé, lisse et chauve, avec des plis organiques naturels. Ses yeux sont larges, noirs, brillants comme du verre poli, reflétant les lumières célestes environnantes. Son visage exprime une fascination douce et presque humaine, un sourire discret révélant des dents fines et irrégulières.
Il tient délicatement un smartphone moderne (type iPhone, finition métallique bleutée), qu’il observe avec une curiosité presque enfantine, comme s’il découvrait une technologie étrangère. Ses doigts longs et articulés, légèrement noueux, présentent une texture réaliste avec des détails de peau, micro-rides et imperfections.
Il porte une tunique simple, en tissu légèrement usé, aux tons bleu profond, avec une écharpe rouge sombre drapée autour du cou, flottant légèrement sous un vent chaud et sec.
En arrière-plan, un désert rocheux s’étend à perte de vue, avec des formations géologiques irrégulières, baignées dans une lumière chaude et cinématographique. Plusieurs vaisseaux spatiaux gigantesques en forme de disques lévitent dans le ciel, certains proches, d’autres lointains, créant une profondeur de champ impressionnante. Ils émettent une lumière douce et circulaire, avec des halos lumineux et des reflets atmosphériques.
Le ciel est spectaculaire : un coucher de soleil multiple avec plusieurs astres visibles, générant des lens flares, des reflets anamorphiques et une diffusion volumétrique de la lumière dans une atmosphère légèrement poussiéreuse.
**Style visuel :** hyperréalisme, rendu 8K, ultra-détaillé, textures photoréalistes, éclairage cinématographique type blockbuster sci-fi, profondeur de champ maîtrisée (focus net sur le visage et le smartphone, arrière-plan légèrement flouté), color grading chaud (oranges, ambres, rouges), contraste élevé, lumière volumétrique, effets de glow subtils.
**Caméra :** plan rapproché (medium close-up), angle légèrement en contre-plongée pour donner de la majesté au personnage, objectif 50mm ou 85mm, bokeh doux en arrière-plan, grain cinématographique léger.
**Ambiance :** mélange de solitude cosmique et de banalité technologique, contraste entre l’extraordinaire (extraterrestre + vaisseaux) et le quotidien (utilisation d’un smartphone), sensation de calme suspendu, presque contemplatif.

**Prompt:**
A humanoid extraterrestrial with finely textured, slightly translucent skin in gray-ochre tones stands in the foreground of an alien desert landscape bathed in golden hour light. Subtle veins are visible beneath the surface, adding to the hyperrealism. Its elongated, smooth, bald skull features natural organic folds. Its large, glossy black eyes resemble polished obsidian, reflecting celestial light sources. The creature’s expression conveys a gentle, almost human curiosity, with a faint smile revealing thin, slightly irregular teeth.
It delicately holds a modern smartphone (iPhone-style, metallic blue finish), studying it with childlike fascination, as if encountering unfamiliar technology for the first time. Its long, articulated fingers are slightly knotted, with realistic skin textures, micro-wrinkles, and imperfections.
The alien wears a simple, slightly worn tunic in deep blue tones, paired with a dark red scarf loosely wrapped around its neck, subtly moving in a warm, dry breeze.
In the background, a vast rocky desert stretches endlessly, filled with irregular geological formations glowing under warm cinematic lighting. Massive disc-shaped spacecraft hover in the sky at varying distances, creating dramatic depth. Some are close and imposing, others distant and ethereal. They emit soft circular light patterns, surrounded by glowing halos and atmospheric reflections.
The sky is breathtaking: a multi-sun sunset scene with several celestial bodies visible, producing intense lens flares, anamorphic light streaks, and volumetric lighting diffused through a slightly dusty atmosphere.
**Visual style:** hyperrealistic, 8K resolution, ultra-detailed textures, cinematic blockbuster sci-fi lighting, shallow depth of field (sharp focus on the alien’s face and smartphone, softly blurred background), warm color grading (gold, amber, red tones), high contrast, volumetric lighting, subtle glow effects.
**Camera:** medium close-up shot, slightly low angle to enhance the subject’s presence, shot on a 50mm or 85mm lens, smooth bokeh in the background, subtle cinematic film grain.
**Mood:** a poetic blend of cosmic solitude and everyday banality, juxtaposing the extraordinary (alien being and hovering spacecraft) with the ordinary (smartphone usage), creating a calm, contemplative, almost surreal atmosphere.

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
Scheveningen, The Hague, South Holland, The Netherlands:
Beach clearing activities are taking place along the coast. Instead of seeing pavilions, now containers filled with the contents of those pavilions are lined up on the beach and are waiting to be removed.
This offers such a different view on the Kurhaus from this angle....

Port Quin is a small cove and hamlet close to Port Isaac at the Cornish coast. In medieval times, the harbour was used by boats to sail to Wales for trading. Nowadays, the village is mostly abandonded and the harbour is maintained by the National Trust. It was a breezy and crisp day on our visit but we enjoyed the quick stop.

This month the theme was chosen by Jette, who has chosen "Low Angle and 'L is for..." for the monthly challenge. This is my contribution a low angle shot of a Lilac coloured flower with a liquid raindrop reflecting the flowers around it. I had to lie on the ground to get the low angle required.
Jette, our thoughts are with you.
A Gomphrena globosa or Globe Amaranth flower.
Sun climbs high,
early summer morning sky.
Green heron, a silhouette,
perched on a rustic snag,
silver outline backlit bright,
caught in the morning's early light.
Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
I am grateful for your continued support and appreciate every view, fave, and comment!
he sat on the bench with his backpack, his dog, and his ferret. the ferret looked at strangers the way a diplomat looks at customs officers — with patience, and the quiet certainty of knowing it would be let through.
