Jethro Tull, the father of modern farming, has a memorial here and there is a moving marble statue of two young brothers in swimming trunks who drowned in the Thames in 1886.

Macro walk @ Lower Peirce Reservoir, Singapore
Finally after a lot of exchange of photo comments, I was able to meet eye to eye a couple of great macroholics and street photographers here on flickr.
Thanks to Cakka a.k.a. Cakkarudie for arranging the meet up! It was nice meeting you and Thomas, Xingjian, Vin, Choomee, Weng. Thanks to Thomas a.k.a. Mio Cade for the tips about street photography. Thanks to Weng's magnificent vision for spotting nice subjects.
I'm looking forward to a repeat of the group shoot... What a great company!
Don't let me forget to thank Cakka and Weng for the sumptuous fish curry lunch, loved the treat!
The Lower School Parents Association hosted a hot lunch for the School in the Fieldhouse on November 20. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, students wrote down what they were grateful for on colorful pieces of paper and hung them on the Peace Tree. The trappings of fall, including pumpkins and acorns, adorned the tables as students, faculty, staff and parents shared a delicious meal together made by the Café. Later the students ran outside to play.

Early morning chorus that day: Wolves. First a distant couple, then a couple closer, then another pair much closer. Nice alarm clock.
Some of the very handsome old cottages and houses in Lower Largo in the East Neuk of Fife, rich farmland behind them inland while they mostly look out onto the mighty Firth of Forth and the North Sea. Took more pics than I meant to, mostly because the light was so gorgeous today that I couldn't resist these lovely old homes, mostly whitewashed, many with the red pantile roof slates, a trend brought back from the trade routes from this part of the coast to the Low Countries centuries ago (the tiles were often used as ballast on return trips by Scots merchant ships, hence why a number of old buildings on the east coast have these very European style roofs.
Most of the mills in Mumbai used to be in this area till some years ago. Now, most of these mills have shut down.

Lower Yellowstone Falls. Unfortunately, we a solid gray sky and some snow. Not the best light for photography, but still a great place.
