These steps are no more. The sea front in Scheveningen (The Hague) has been undergoing restructuring. The beach is being widened and the dyke is being strengthened: one of the steps that need to be taken to help protect us from from rising sea levels - and living below sea level we need plenty of help to keep our toes dry :)
This shot is part of my first SoFoBoMo project - if you haven't heard of it, then take a look here: www.sofobomo.org/HomePage It's a fun challenge and it's free.

This is the first picture taken with my new Sigma 30mm prime. (Well actually it was the second, but the first was taken just a moment before, of the same subject, but at a different angle). I must say I really like the new prime.
These steps lead to the dept. of mathematical sciences at my university.

Exploring a small side street in Cow Hollow today, I found these very unusual steps! It seems when it comes to Victorians, I keep finding new and different features to admire. I find them a source of never-ending joy!
During a trip back to Boston, my parents took me to Newport, RI where my dad enjoyed fishing at his usual spot, and my mom and I explored downtown. We took the famed Cliff Walk, and I caught pictures of the New England coast, snails, and giant houses of the rich and famous, circa 1900.
Thurs. the 21st out for Morning Walkabout. Just a few clicks in North Park Blocks. Then the rain came.
Each side of the stone steps is lined with the hydrangeas.

The Sixty Steps were designed by Alexander "Greek" Thomson in the 1870s to provide access to the origianl Queen Margaret Bridge, connecting Kelvinside Terrace and Garriochmill Road. Unfortunately the Queen Margaret Bridge no longer stands and all that remains are the brick foundations on either side of the River Kelvin.
