Skye based photographer, Andy Stables, keeps bringing us different views of Neist point. So, truly inspired, I thought it was time to try a different angle myself.
Another large Italian 6 day tour. Eventful to say the least.
This place must have suffered an earthquake recently. There was a nearly new Fiat in the courtyard flattened with brickwork and many rooms falling down and evidence of huge cracks in the outer walls. Was unique and frightening at the same time.

Royal Stables - Córdoba - Spain.
Royal Stables ((in Spanish) Caballerizas Reales) are a set of stables in Córdoba, Spain. The building is situated in the historic centre and borders the Guadalquivir. The stables housed the best stallions and mares of the royal stud breed Andalusian horse.
By royal decree of Felipe II on November 28, 1567, the Spanish Horse breed with formalized standards was created, and a royal stable was established in Córdoba. The king commissioned Diego López de Haro y Sotomayor, 1st Marquis of El Carpio to build the stables on part of the site of the Alcázar fortress. The brand contained an "R" for Real ("royal") inside a C for Córdoba with a corona (crown) on top of the C; the royal stamp was placed on horses produced in the Royal Stables, being the "first brand used on the first horses of the now organized breed".
The building design is characterized by a distinct military style in keeping with its location by the Alcázar fortress. The main area features a cross-vaulted roof which is supported on sandstone columns and is divided into small stables. The building features a permanent equestrian display.

The Imperial Stables were designed by the architect Nicholas Benois and built between 1847 and 1852 in Peterhof. Huge, trapezoidal quadrilateral stables is a medieval castle on a plan. The red brick design was inspired by Hampton Court Palace.
Znamenka manor Stable housing located at the Peterhof road. Stabling was built in 1853-1855 under Bosse project for the Grand Duke Nicholas.
The Jacobean house was built for George Calvert, Secretary of State to James I and founder of Maryland, USA . Kiplin Hall was built in the early 1620s as a hunting lodge. He was born at Kiplin, where his father leased land, and bought the estate in 1619.
What is unusual is that he used red bricks instead of Yorkshire stone to build his country house.
In a sumo training stable, the person responsible for holding the salt bowl is usually a junior wrestler or a low-ranking member of the stable. This duty is considered a humble and essential task. Before a sumo match, it is a tradition for wrestlers to purify themselves and the ring by tossing salt as a symbolic gesture. The person holding the salt bowl provides it to the wrestler, ensuring they have an ample supply for the ritual before they enter the ring. The salt purification ritual is a significant part of sumo culture, symbolizing the purification of the ring and the removal of evil spirits.

WWI RE8 bi-plane taken at Old Warden.
Losses of aircraft and crew were massive, young lads barely 18 yrs old were given flying lessons, basic training, then sent to fight. Most were shot down and killed with a matter of days ...
During World War I, the lumbering Reconnaissance Experimental 8 was the most widely used British two-seater biplane on the Western Front. A descendant of the R.E.7, it was initially developed for reconnaissance work but also saw service as a bomber and ground attack aircraft. Nicknamed the "Harry Tate," after a well known music hall performer of the day, it provided a stable platform for photographic missions but suffered from poor maneuverability, leaving it vulnerable to attack by enemy fighters. Despite heavy losses, the R.E.8 remained in service throughout the war.
On the morning of 13 April 1917, 59 Squadron's ill fated flight of six R.E.8s was on a photo-reconnaissance mission near Douai when it encountered Jasta 11. All six R.E.8s were shot down within a matter of minutes, one of them becoming Manfred von Richthofen's forty first victory.
"Jastas 11" : (Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 11 ("No 11 Fighter Squadron") was founded on 28 September 1916 from elements of 4 armee's Keks 1, 2 and 3 and mobilized on 11 October as part of the German Air Service's expansion program, forming permanent specialised fighter squadrons, or "Jastas". It became the most successful fighter squadron in the German Air Service
A moment later...
Hannah: I don't know why, but I suddenly got an urge to shampoo Stella and put ribbons in her mane.
Gemma: Ha ha, how odd.
Hannah: I know right. I think I'll just rub her down before we go anyway.
Gemma: Sure. Do you think it's getting colder?
Hannah: No, not really.

Hannah: She won't put in the reverse. Back up Stella!
Stella: But we're not done. I'd like to visit the new neighbor first you see.
Dolly (off screen) : Just do as the human want's silly girl, or she might not feed you.
Stella: I don't need food.
Dolly (off screen) : Lovely! You've gone bonkers over a stud you never met. I'll have your carrots then.
Stella decided to do as "the human" wanted after all.

Sindy horse Stable 1981
The first of the Ex GWA orange locos to be repainted was ALF23 at Islington Workshops after overhaul. ALF23 had only been back in service for a couple of weeks here in the shot as it's stabled on the repair roads at Dry Creek on 5-1-23
A closer look at some trees I made for my winter landscape.
They are pretty stable and can even be held upside down without any problem (which is more than I could say for some of my other trees :P).
Looks wise I think the shape turned out ok, and I like the fullness of the tree. Not sure how easy it will be to mix other colors in with the white in order to represent the parts not covered by snow though.
