At Frederiksborg Castle (Danish: Frederiksborg Slot).
This royal castle was built in a northern Renaissance style, for the Danish king Christian IV. The main building of the castle was built 1602-1620 (replacing an older structure). For a long time it served as a royal residence.
The castle was almost completely destroyed in a fire 1859. The castle was restored, using old plans and drawings to give it its proper look - with generous donations made by J.C. Jabosen (who made a fortune founding the Carlsberg brewery), to turn it into a National Museum, which it still is to this day.
Pumping station "de Vier Noorder Koggen". Built in 1869 to replace some polder mills for the draining of the polder land to the former Zuiderzee. The pumping station consists of two parts: the old pumping station from 1869 and on the left the new pumping station from 1907.
The old pumping station worked well, but that was not enough. The pumping station, and also the mills, were running at full power, but the area behind the dike remained too wet. There were also votes to build another pumping station, but the high costs were feared. The farmers complained of stone and bone. After a lot of talking, while meanwhile wet years caused a lot of damage, it was finally decided to expand the old pumping station with a new section in which a gas engine would be placed. The new building was completed in 1907. The mills were no longer needed. The millers were fired and had to leave their home and workplace. The windmills were sold for five hundred guilders each. Of the twenty mills, which were managed by the Vier Noorder Koggen, only the West-Uit 7 mill at Aartswoud was spared. The appearance of the Brakepolder changed considerably when fourteen windmills disappeared from the landscape there in just a short time.
During World War I, opponents of steam were proved right when the pumping station ran into problems because the coal supply stopped. It was decided to keep a large stock of coal available at all times.
Replaced the original portrait image with this landscape one as it suits the fine scene at the top of Padley Gorge better.
The spring is almost gone now, the new fresh green and moist atmosphere is unevitably replaced by humid warm, sick drying green and tons of insects. Yep, the summer is coming. Not a good season for the forest photography. But it is neccesary for life as every other season. And the walkies are still superb!

Interior from Garmo stave church at Maihaugen in Lillehammer, Norway. The baptismal font is made from soapstone and dates to the 12th century.
This stave church originally dates to the middle of the 12th century - later expanded in the 18th century. In the 19th century the church was replaced with a newly built on in Garmo and this one was dismantled and sold at auction(!) in 1880. It was bought by Trond Eklestuen, who spent much time buying traditional Norwegian objects (and buildings) and giving them away to museums for preservation. The church ended up at Maihaugen (the largest open-air museum in northern Europe, founded in 1904), a place dedicated to the preservation of Norwegian history and architecture. The church was rebuilt there in 1921.

Rock formations in northwestern part of Bulgaria, seen on an autumn afternoon, more to come from this place. My minor social media problems are being replaced by a psycho colleague at work (it's not a Harvey Weinstein/Kevin Spacey type of conflict in case anyone assumes that), which is much more serious, I'm sorry if my participation lessens in the coming days until i figure out a way to deal with that situation.
The Bridge....
Saturday Karen and I made our way to the south end of Heart Lake Conservation Area; The fall is a fickle time. some years the leaves changing colours are okay and others they don't change much at all. some years they last for a long time others a sudden storm and strong winds and its all over.
This is probably the last weekend for shooting fall colours in southern Ontario, the colour display is off the charts, so may varied shades of red, yellow and burnt orange.
this shot is of the bridge in the middle of the park, it is showing signs of its age and will probably be replaced with a much better newer one, but i do love the old worn out version.
Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

The Ilyushin Il-14 (NATO reporting name: Crate) was a Soviet twin-engine commercial and military personnel and cargo transport aircraft that first flew in 1950, and entered service in 1954. Il-14 was also manufactured in East Germany by VVB Flugzeugbau, in Czechoslovakia as the Avia 14. The Ilyushin Il-14 was typically replaced by the Antonov An-24 and Yakovlev Yak-40.
Deutsche Lufthansa (abbreviated DLH) was an airline serving as the flag carrier of East Germany from 1955 to 1963.
Because of the usage of the Lufthansa branding (the trademark rights were owned by West German Lufthansa) the East German company was under constant legal pressure, and was subsequently liquidated and replaced by Interflug.
Aw !!!!! As you can see in my today's photos, their blooms are soooo adorably and deliciously formed, so gracefully colored!!! The plants are so generously built and colored !! The Divine Creator was full of inspiration and joy , really, while creating the blooms of these Beauties : Hydrangeas or Hortansias! ( Hydrangea = Hydra+Gea = Filled with water + earth, in Greek, implies that Hydrangeas are really fond of humid soil and atmosphere!!)
In my garden, they replace in July certain large-bloomed Roses in blooming, while these first ones carry faded rose blooms, and are being prepared for their second wave of blooming!! Therefore, the garden remains colorful non stop!! Which was really my target-aim while organizing its creation and planting in the mixed borders.…
Hydrangeas are generally carrying two types of blooms in various sizes and colors, according to the unique characteristics of each plant! They are either round bloomed-– Hydrangeas Mopheads--- or disc-like bloomed –Lacecup Hydrangeas Macrophyllas!
You can read here in this BBC ’s special gardening website how to grow them successfully!! www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/how-to-grow-hyd...
Back rested and bright eyed and bushy tailed I am starting with one of my favorite views of Haarlem which is the backside approach to the Nieuwe Kerk the scene always appears to me as a picture waiting to be captured and a fitting end to my reworks of Haarlem.
Originally there stood a cramped and falling down gothic St. Anne's chapel which the Nieuwe Kerk replaced in 1649 by Jacob van Campen’s Gothic austere design as Haarlem’s first stone built protestant church but keeping the locally designed Renaissance tower by Lieven de Key by request of the city .
This style of protestant church was designed to focus the congregants attention on the pulpit instead of the ornamentation and the outside was to represent the temple keep in Jerusalem.
The Nieuwe Kerk also served a more practical reason as well, in the winter the Grote Kerk is freezing and there is not an easy way to heat it comfortably to make it bearable for the attendees so during the colder months of the year the congregation moves into a much smaller warmer space of the New Church.
I took this on Sept 13th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 1/10 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Born in 1776, William John Bankes was as a young man an aide-de-camp to the Duke of Wellington and became an active Member of Parliament.
While in residence at Kingston Lacy, William John made many changes, including the installation of the Egyptian obelisk that may be seen in the gardens to this day. One of the first things he did was to plant a beech avenue lining the road from near the house’s entrance drive to beyond Badbury Rings. The road was a turnpike, and the Bankes family enjoyed the revenue from it. The avenue was a birthday gift to William John’s mother, Frances, and there were 365 trees on one side of the road for each day of the year and 366 on the other, for a leap year.
Today the road is the B3082, the main route between Wimborne and Blandford. The trees are not surprisingly showing signs of age and disease. The National Trust have so far replaced some seventy of them with hornbeams, which are just as attractive but are better able to withstand the disadvantages of being alongside a busy road.

The plasterer has finished such a messy job. Mind I can’t the knock plasterer other than nailing him down to do the job in the first place. His boast was he’d been plastering for 65 years and it looked it. He was nobbling around on bad knees talking to Carla a lot of the time drinking tea, but I have to take my hat off to him still doing it at his age. The biggest part of our job was replacing ceiling boards which I ripped out after water Ingres problems with the sunroom roof a couple of winters back. I was concerned as the job involved some heavy lifting, but he managed and put in two days hard grafted, still having plenty of time to natter with Carla. Now the job is done, the cleaning starts. The sunroom facing northwest is freezing cold this time of year, so we use it as make shift fridge for extra Christmas food and drink. It give my visiting family some exercise to walk to the back of the house to get plate of Christmas leftovers or another can of beer. Todays photo was taken in early November, no clever composition, no dramatic lighting, just a pretty view, well I think it is.
Over time, something newer and flashier takes your place. Outrageous, in my opinion! Treasure these broken gems, they just need a little love to shine again.

Crimson Rosella
Platycercus elegans
Description: There are several colour forms of the Crimson Rosella. The form it is named for has mostly crimson (red) plumage and bright blue cheeks. The feathers of the back and wing coverts are black broadly edged with red. The flight feathers of the wings have broad blue edges and the tail is blue above and pale blue below and on the outer feathers. Birds from northern Queensland are generally smaller and darker than southern birds. The 'Yellow Rosella' has the crimson areas replaced with light yellow and the tail more greenish. The 'Adelaide Rosella' is intermediate in colour, ranging from yellow with a reddish wash to dark orange. Otherwise, all the forms are similar in pattern. Young Crimson Rosellas have the characteristic blue cheeks, but the remainder of the body plumage is green-olive to yellowish olive (occasionally red in some areas). The young bird gradually attains the adult plumage over a period of 15 months
Similar species: The adult Crimson Rosella is similar to male Australian King-Parrots, but differs by having blue cheeks, shoulders, and tail, a whitish, rather than red, bill and a dark eye. Immature Crimson Rosellas also differ from female and immature King-Parrots by having blue cheeks, a whitish bill and a more yellow-green rather than dark green colouring.
Distribution: There are several populations of the Crimson Rosella. Red (crimson) birds occur in northern Queensland, in southern Queensland to south-eastern South Australia and on Kangaroo Island. Orange birds are restricted to the Flinders Ranges region of South Australia, while yellow ones are found along the Murray, Murrumbidgee and neighbouring rivers (where yellow birds meet red birds they hybridise, producing orange offspring). Red birds have been introduced to Norfolk Island and New Zealand.
Habitat: Throughout its range, the Crimson Rosella is commonly associated with tall eucalypt and wetter forests.
Feeding: Crimson Rosellas are normally encountered in small flocks and are easily attracted to garden seed trays. Once familiar with humans, they will accept hand held food. Natural foods include seeds of eucalypts, grasses and shrubs, as well as insects and some tree blossoms.
Breeding: The Crimson Rosella's nest is a tree hollow, located high in a tree, and lined with wood shavings and dust. The female alone incubates the white eggs, but both sexes care for the young. The chicks remain dependent on their parents for a further 35 days after leaving the nest.
Calls: The Crimson Rosella has a range of calls, the commonest being a two-syllabled "cussik-cussik". It also has a range of harsh screeches and metallic whistles.
Minimum Size: 32cm
Maximum Size: 36cm
Average size: 34cm
Average weight: 129g
Breeding season: September to January
Clutch Size: 4 to 8 (usually 5)
Incubation: 20 days
Nestling Period: 35 days

Mary, Queen of the World Cathedral
1085 De la Cathedrale Street, Montreal
The Cathedral is the third largest church in Quebec and is Catholic denomination. It was built to replace the former St. Jacques Cathedral which had burned in 1852. Work began in 1875 it was completed in 1894 and consecrated as St. James Cathedral being the patron of the parish that it served.
However in 1955 at the request of Cardinal Paul-Emile Leger it was rededicated by Pope Benedict XV to Mary, Queen of the world. There have been a number of restoration works. In 2003 the enclosed porch and esplanade were restored. Another restoration in 2005 was the work done to Bishop Ignace Bourget’s statue on the outside of the building.
The Bishop’s Mortuary was completed in 1935, this was dedicated to Bishop Bourget where lays his tomb. The walls and floors are made from Italian marble.
The Chapel of the Assumption has a beautiful wood carved altar with gold leaf decoration. There is a wonderful painting of Our Lady painted in the 17th cent by a Spanish monk (unknown). The altar itself was discovered by Rololphe Messmer, an Austrian architect in France. He donated to the cathedral in 1994.
The Ciborium which covers the altar and is located under the dome was created in Rome in 1900 by Joseph-Arthur Vincent and is a reproduction of the famous one in St. Peter’s in Rome.
The Statues which atop the roof of the Cathedral represent the thirteen parishes of Montreal and again imitate those on St. Peter’s in Rome.
There are many treasures to see whilst there, there are many paintings, beautiful stained glass window and panels. The Great Organ was built by Casavant Freres and installed in 1893. The company also did the maintenance work in the 1950’s.
A truly wonderful Cathedral to visit.
I replaced the small perch wih a stick I had found at one of the rapids in the Rio Grande. I put the camera on the tripod a few feet way. Then I set up my Canon R7 to be controlled by the Canon app in my iPhone while I was inside the house. Then just waited, and waited. And then waited some more. Finally, my small friend showed up late in the day as the light was going down. In my excitement I did not raise the ISO. I was lucky to get one sharp frame at 1/15 sec.
Replaced another peacock photo I just posted that I deleted with this one as it came out better.
Seen at Pana'ewa Rainforest Zoo and Gardens located in Hilo, Hawaii [Big Island].
(Original uploaded photo replaced with this cropped version.)
Atlantic seaside resort town in Southern Maine. The town is home of Palace Playland, an amusement park that dates back to 1902 and occupies four acres of beachfront.
Attractions included "The Carousel," with hand-carved wooden horses from Germany, beautifully painted and gold-leaf accented. "The Jack and Jill“ consisted of a large bucket that hoisted two people to the top of a 50 foot slide and dumped them out. Dominating the park was “Noah’s Ark,” a huge ark-shaped funhouse that rocked back and forth while parents hung onto their little ones straining to run through the below-deck passages.
A fire in 1969, reportedly started by a penny that replaced a fuse, consumed the park.
I couldn't bring myself photograph the cookie-cutter attractions that now make up Palace Playland. Those childhood pictures of unique charm and character exist only in my mind.
Il terzo giorno a Bridgetown, di primo mattino, arriva un taxi dell'agenzia d'appoggio alla nave e mi conduce al porto. zona banchine per navi da crociera. La vedo ed è amore a prima vista, gran voglia di scattarle subito una foto, ma sarebbe indelicato, così salgo a bordo, mi presento al Primo Ufficiale che dovrò sostituire e disbrigo tutte le pratiche, prendendo anche conoscenza della nave che non conoscevo (mia prima volta a bordo di un veliero) Solo verso il tramonto mi prendo 5 minuti per scendere a terra e immortalarla. I velieri sono più belli in mare aperto, con le vele spiegate e gonfie di vento. Ormeggiate in banchina, come anche ancorate in rada, le vele sono raccolte e quasi invisibili. Ma io la guardo e il cuore mi batte più forte
On the third day in Bridgetown, early in the morning, a person from the ship's support agency arrives and takes me to the port. dock area for cruise ships. As I see her it's love at first sight, I really want to take a photo right away, but it would be indelicate, so I get on board, introduce myself to the Chief Officer who I will have to replace and take care of all the paperwork, also getting to know the ship that I didn't know (my first time on board a sailing ship) Only towards sunset I can take 5 minutes to go ashore and immortalise her. Sailing ships are more beautiful in the open sea, with their sails unfurled and billowing in the wind. Moored at the quay, as well as anchored in the harbor, the sails are gathered up and almost invisible. But I look at her and my heart beats faster
Hinksey Path, South Thamesmead.
Part of the wider Thamesmead Estate, built 1967-74 in a Brutalist style.
This part of the estate (low rise apartment buildings) is due to be demolished and replaced with newly built homes. Several of the other apartments near here are now unoccupied and have been boarded up.
The teal-coloured panel beyond the concrete staircase is part of a hoarding that surrounds a wide expanse of land where similar buildings have already been demolished in readiness for new construction work to begin.
After public pressure, Boots, the well known pharmacy chain relented, withdrawing their plastic packaging, replacing it with 100% recycled paper bags!
To Prologue of the Story "The Doors"
♫♫Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - Roll Me Away♫♫
As she clutched onto the firm grip behind her Ronnie, nestled snugly on the sleek motorbike, a wave of tranquility washed over her. The gentle hum of the engine became a soothing symphony, lulling her into a sense of absolute safety. The open road stretched out before them, beckoning them towards a horizon painted with endless possibilities.
The cool breeze weaving through their hair, carried with it the promise of new adventures. It whispered tales of dreams waiting to unfold, of aspirations that was soaring high like the eagles circling overhead. With her heart filled with boundless trust, she leaned into her partner and surrendered to the present moment.
Every mile of their journey they traversed became a testament to their unwavering bond. The rhythm of the bike beneath them echoed the synchronous beating of their loving hearts. The world outside faded away, replaced by a shared sense of purpose and an unbreakable connection. In this intimate embrace, she was enveloped by an unwavering belief that together, they could conquer any challenge that was lying ahead.
As the endless road continued to unravel before them, she was reminded of the enduring power of trust. It was the cornerstone of their partnership, the foundation upon which their dreams were built. With every mile they rode, she was filled with a deep abiding faith in her companion, knowing that she would always have their back, just as her partner had hers. And so, they journeyed on, carried by the wind, propelled by their dreams, and bound together by a love that knew no bounds.
(to be continued...)
Devoted to my Ronnie, a talented and amazing musician who touched my heart deeply with Love ღ
A quick phone snap as we were passing today. I'll replace it when I have remembered to bring my main camera with me. Later: now replaced!
This is St Michael's Church at the tiny village of Haselbech in Northamptonshire. It is Grade II*-listed and parts of it date from the 13th and 14th centuries. The beautiful west tower dates from around 1500. I always find it remarkable how so many relatively small English villages have beautiful medieval churches. The villages were clearly very much bigger in medieval times, and in the case of Haselbech this is confirmed at:
well there's been a few shots of the sunrise in Auckland already on Flickr today, here's my contribution - was a beaut morning, the ship was a very slow beast so managed to take out the tiny bit of blur from the exposure.
There was even a seal bobbing around, never seen one in the gulf before and bit to far out for my 10-22mm but so good to watch this seen unfold in total peace with this chap.
(not HDR), colours were quite strong this morning
FG @ 1.6sces f8, sky 1/10 @ f8, DRI,-currently replacing my crap filters even though I did use my 3stop GND on this (not quite enough though)!
Nylon strings are traditionally tied behind the bridge, but I've found that after years of use strings begin to saw through the wood where they are tied. I've found that using tiny blocks of wood to secure the wood avoids the issue.

The name "without" is because originally the church stood outside the city walls.
There had been a Saxon church on the site in the 11th century but by 1090 it had been replaced by a Norman one. In 1394 it was rebuilt in the perpendicular gothic style during the reign of Richard II. The stone tower was added in 1682.
The church has been badly damaged by fire on three occasions: In 1545, in 1897 and during an air raid of the Blitz of the Second World War . German bombs completely gutted the church but it was restored using the plans of the reconstruction of 1545. It is also one of the very few medieval churches left in London having survived the Great Fire of London in 1666.

La Butte-aux-Cailles est aujourd’hui un haut lieu du street art. Son ambiance de « village dans la ville », avec ses rues pavées et ses murs propices à l’expression artistique, attire depuis les années 1980 de nombreux artistes urbains. Des figures comme Miss.Tic, Invader ou Seth y ont laissé leur empreinte, contribuant à en faire un lieu emblématique.
La Butte aux Cailles tire son nom de Pierre Caille, qui en fait l'acquisition en 1543. On y trouvait des moulins sur les hauteurs et des tanneries, des teintureries, des blanchisseries plus bas, le long de la Bièvre. Le quartier était autrefois insalubre mais depuis la Bièvre a été canalisée et enfouie pour faire partie de Paris.
Le quartier a aussi une histoire militante héritée notamment de la Commune de Paris en 1871, durant laquelle le quartier fut un bastion des insurgés.
Des associations comme Lézarts de la Bièvre jouent un rôle important en protégeant certaines œuvres, en les signalant pour éviter leur effacement. Les œuvres sont souvent éphémères et sont remplacées au bout de quelques semaines ou quelques mois. Grâce à cette dynamique, le street art y est partiellement toléré, bien qu’il reste techniquement interdit. Ce mélange d’histoire, de créativité et de tolérance attire aussi les touristes et les passionnés, faisant de la Butte-aux-Cailles un véritable musée à ciel ouvert, en perpétuelle évolution.

La Butte-aux-Cailles is today a mecca of street art. Its "village in the city" atmosphere, with its cobbled streets and walls conducive to artistic expression, has attracted many urban artists since the 1980s. Figures like Miss.Tic, Invader or Seth have left their mark on it, contributing to making it an iconic place.
La Butte aux Cailles takes its name from Pierre Caille, who acquired it in 1543. There were mills on the heights and tanneries, dyeing factories, laundries lower down, along the Bièvre. The neighborhood was once unsanitary but since then the Bièvre has been channeled and buried to become part of Paris.
The neighborhood also has a militant history inherited notably from the Paris Commune in 1871, during which the neighborhood was a stronghold of insurgents.
Associations like Lézarts de la Bièvre play an important role in protecting certain works, by signaling them to avoid their erasure. The works are often ephemeral and are replaced after a few weeks or months. Thanks to this dynamic, street art is partially tolerated, although it remains technically prohibited. This mix of history, creativity and tolerance also attracts tourists and enthusiasts, making the Butte-aux-Cailles a real open-air museum, in perpetual evolution
