Ritz-Carlton as seen from the broad walk at Las Olas beach. I am intrigued by the palm trees on the rooftop - I bet it must be a beautiful view from up there.

A friend loaned me his bachelor pad on the outskirts of Kathmandu while he was back in his home country. His place is on the very top floor of a house similar to the one in the foreground of this photo, with expansive views of the city.
A heavy monsoon rain darkened the sky and brought out the bright colours on some of the buildings, which is when I took this panorama from the balcony.
Een maand lang mooie vergezichten: van 26 mei t/m 24 juni 2022 beleef je hoe dakgebruik kan bijdragen aan een betere toekomst voor stadsbewoners. Rotterdamse Dakendagen organiseert naast het gelijknamige festival de Rotterdam Rooftop Walk, een route op dakniveau inclusief een loopbrug tussen WTC Rotterdam en de Bijenkorf.
The Asian Art Museum in Seoul is located at the top of the road to Bukchon Hanok Village. On the front gate, you will see a picture of a dragon, which the founder and director Gwon Young-du personally drew on the old wall tiles of the building. Inside, there are three other compounds and are related to Confucianism, Buddhism, and virtue. With its location at the peak of Bukchon, the second-story terrace offers a spectacular view of the entire city, just unfortunate it was cold and overcast on this day.

The Rooftop Express is a pretty funky show involving a truck and gooseneck caravan setup with great colourful lights, horses, cattle, men on the horses, commentary from a man on the horse, all good fun. It is a good show and I recommend you see it somewhere, have seen it in Sydney, Toowoomba and Brisbane of course. This particular group of frames delivered some really cool smoke action as well as the light trails and some fireworks.
This is a view from the only public window of Chichester's Novium museum. The Novium is a museum in Chichester, West Sussex, southern England. The name comes from the Roman name for the city, Noviomagus Reginorum.
The museum, designed by the architect Keith Williams following an architectural design competition managed by RIBA Competitions, has an area of 1,300 sq m which is approximately 2.4 times the size of the previous museum in Little London. The building is divided into three floors each of which will contain a gallery for exhibition. It contains a research and learning room as well as a collection store for the social history collection. The museum is built directly over the top of the Chichester's Roman Bath House complex which are displayed in the ground floor gallery.
The museum has over 350,000 objects of geological, archaeological and social historic interest. The social history and geological collections is made up of some 50,000 objects which are housed within the new building, whilst the archaeological collection is contained in a purpose built store within the Discovery Centre located at Fishbourne Roman Palace.
The museum was opened on 8 July 2012.
The most promenent building in this view is Chichester Cathedral. Construction of the cathedral probably started in the 1070's. A number of disasters including subsidence, partial collapse and lightning strikes have affected the Cathedral over the years. The most serious incident occurred in 1861 when the cathedral spire collapsed in on itself. The new spire, designed by George Gilbert Scott, was rebuilt over a 5-year period and is slightly taller than the previous spire at 85 metres tall. The Cathedral is now home to a pair of peregrine falcons, who have been nesting in the cathedral turrets since 2001.
To the right of the Cathedral is the Chichester cathedral bell tower. Chichester is the last remaining city in the UK to have a Cathedral with a detached medieval bell tower. The tower stands 36 metres high and 11 metres square at the base. The octagonal bell chamber is home to 8 bells dating from the 16th to 18th centuries. An hour bell was added in 1877 and is named 'Great Walter'. They require a team of 15 bell ringers to climb 84 steps every Sunday and Wednesday to ring the bells in a call tp prayer.
On the far right can be seen part of the church of St Peter the Great which was constructed in 1850 and consecrated in 1852, it's designer, Richard Carpenter (1812-1855) also worked on Chichester Cathedral. At one time St Peter the Great was the 'mother church' of the city.
As a result of being overshadowed by the Cathedral, a dwindling congregation and the need for major repairs, the church fell into disuse by 1979. Since that date the church has been used as an antiques market, shopping centre and tourist information point. In 1997 it was converted into a pub, 'The Slurping Toad', is currently known as Wests Bar and Lounge.

I got up on Margréts and Davys roof one morning; A cold spell had been hitting europe and the trees were frosted to... well, they were very frosted!
Unfortunately I didn't have the willpower to go out for fresh air so I just went back to bed allowing my headache to recide.
Next day this beautiful weather; blue clear skies, frosted trees, grass and hobos. All gone. Melted away to a gray, cloudy January.
Moral of this story; if you see something you see worth shooting.
Go out and TAKE the damn picture!
Just a regular "filler" shot as we'll call it since I'm not currently at Disney shooting! I was going through a bunch of old photo's from last May's trip to the World and came across this little guy. I thought it was kind of cool and caught my eye, so I gave it a little editing and this is what came of it!
On the 11th day of our 20-day trek to the north and south sides of Kangchenjunga we enjoyed a rest day at our camp in Ghunsa (elevation 3,415 m, 11,204 ft.) where I photographed these colorful prayer flags. Blue represents sky and space; White, air and wind; Red, fire; Green, water; And yellow, earth. The mantras and prayers printed on the flags are believed to be spread by the wind throughout the world.
That spot on top of the chimney is popular among the larger birds, such as that huge seagull - VÃ¥lerenga Oslo Norway
