Thanks for views,faves and comments:-)
There are many vantage points to photograph the Bombo Quarry pillars. The best that I have found requires climbing atop an adjacent structure to see the surf breaking over the rocks and creating waterfalls. Waves must be 4 metres or less otherwise you could get soaked up there. It helps to have a cloudy day as well otherwise there is too much contrast. One could easily spend a day there and enjoy the experience. This was on Sunday where the surf wasn't as extreme as Saturday.

I'm out at work at the moment so can't look up the term for an 18 point stag.
Photographed at Studley Royal two days ago. I cant help thinking that in this mornings snow these Red Deer would have made for a very different photo.

This is the new shopping centre in Las Vegas. The building on the right is a Prada store. I took a similar shot in a different orientation which I will put in the comments.
“The reason mankind was brought into being by God was so that they might apprehend with their senses the sky, the earth, and everything they contain, as visible objects, and by means of them go beyond them with their minds to invisible beauties, that they might sing the praises of God, the one Creator of all.”
-Palamas, Mary the Mother of God, 421.
Crampons are overkill for Abraham Lake, but they do offer the best traction transitioning from lakeshore to the lake over sloped ice.
Concept started with a low boot shot (thanks Song!). Extending the idea, I thought a GoPro under the crampon points would offer a different perspective. Turns out the GoPro is too tall for the clearance, so I placed my regular camera on the ice and this is the result.
San Miniato al Monte is a basilica in Florence, central Italy, standing atop one of the highest points in the city. It has been described as one of the finest Romanesque structures in Tuscany and one of the most scenic churches in Italy. There is an adjoining Olivetan monastery, seen to the right of the basilica when ascending the stairs.
St. Miniato or Minas was an Armenian prince serving in the Roman army under Emperor Decius. He was denounced as a Christian after becoming a hermit and was brought before the Emperor who was camped outside the gates of Florence. The Emperor ordered him to be thrown to beasts in the Amphitheatre where a panther was called upon him but refused to devour him. Beheaded in the presence of the Emperor, he is alleged to have picked up his head, crossed the Arno and walked up the hill of Mons Fiorentinus to his hermitage. A shrine was later erected at this spot and there was a chapel there by the 8th century. Construction of the present church was begun in 1013 by Bishop Alibrando and it was endowed by the Emperor Henry II. The adjoining monastery began as a Benedictine community, then passed to the Cluniacs and then in 1373 to the Olivetans, who still run it. The monks make famous liqueurs, honey and herbal teas, which they sell from a shop next to the church.
The interior exhibits the early feature of a choir raised on a platform above the large crypt. It has changed little since it was first built. The patterned pavement dates from 1207. The centre of the nave is dominated by the beautiful freestanding Cappella del Crocefisso (Chapel of the Crucifix), designed by Michelozzo in 1448. It originally housed the miraculous crucifix now in Santa Trìnita and is decorated with panels long thought to be painted by Agnolo Gaddi. The terracotta decoration of the vault is by Luca della Robbia.
The crypt is the oldest part of the church and the high altar supposedly contains the bones of St Minias himself (although there is evidence that these were removed to Metz before the church was even built). In the vaults are frescoes by Taddeo Gaddi.
The raised choir and presbytery contain a magnificent Romanesque pulpit and screen made in 1207. The apse is dominated by a great mosaic of Christ between the Virgin and St Minias on its vaulted ceiling dating from 1297; the same subject is depicted on the façade of the church and is probably by the same unknown artist. The crucifix above the high altar is attributed to Luca della Robbia. The sacristy is decorated with a great fresco cycle on the Life of St Benedict by Spinello Aretino (1387).
