The Old Harry Rocks are one of the top drone-spots in the UK but unfortunately the wind was way too strong to fly that morning. Turns out the white coast has some awesome 'normal' perspectives to offer as well :)

Dogwood 52 week challenge. WEEK 8. Landscape: Wide Angle/PanoramaThis is a great opportunity to explore panorama stitching and create a wide sweeping landscape.
Amazingly, as I shaped to take this photograph of a frenetically busy entrance to a crammed Old Delhi road, a motorcyclist (front left) sped headlong into the melee. I am still surprised and relieved no-one was hurt.
Clifton, Arizona, USA. Once a booming copper mining town but now mostly declining or already in decay and the majority of people and business have moved just up the road to Morenci. The Freeport McMoRan copper mine located in Morenci is one of the largest in the world
Cliff dwellings along the San Francisco and Gila Rivers are evidence of an advanced civilization that existed long before Caesar ruled Rome. Many specimens of pottery and stone implements are still to be found in these ancient dwelling places. In the mid-1500s, both Fray Marcos de Niza and Francisco Vasquez de Coronado passed through the area, following the San Pedro north to the Gila River. Geronimo was born in 1829 near the confluence of Eagle Creek and the San Francisco and Gila Rivers.
In 1856 the first mineral discoveries of the Morenci/Clifton area were found by California volunteers pursuing Apaches, and conflicts between the Apaches and advancing Anglo settlers touched off a 26-year-long war. Mining for gold and silver began in 1864, followed by copper in 1872, and the mine at Morenci quickly grew to become the largest copper producer in North America. Clifton's population ballooned from 600 in 1880 to 5000 by 1910, and it quickly earned its reputation as the wildest of the "Wild West" boomtowns. Neighboring Morenci was swallowed up by an open pit mine in the 1960s, but Clifton was preserved, and today Chase Creek Street is still graced with lovely Victorian-era buildings from the town's halcyon days as the place to quickly make and lose a fortune.
In 1983, Clifton survived two nearly fatal blows, first a nearly three-year-long strike that began on June 30, 1983. Then later that same year, on October 2, 1983, Tropical Storm Octave sent 90,900 cubic feet of water per second into the San Francisco River, which burst its banks, destroying 700 homes and heavily damaging 86 of the town's 126 businesse

We had nice weather so I pulled out my camera and makes some great photos with my NikonD7000.
Old Boats, near Tobermoray now not needed, such a shame to see them like this, but what else can they do with them as they move on.

Old Economy Village, a museum & historic site that interprets the history of the Harmony Society. It is situated in Ambridge, Pennsylvania. The buildings are approximately 200 years old.
I stumbled across this old barn as I was travelling from one marked site to another. Sometimes that's the way I find the most interesting sites. It sure looks like it would have been a beautiful barn in its day.
Saskatchewan, Canada.
I wrote a blog post about my springtime Saskatchewan trip that has some behind-the-scenes pics and stories which you might enjoy.
I love photographing on the Canadian Prairies and I've been travelling there to do so since 2013. If you'd like to see my other Prairie images, feel free to take a look at the album.
