The Old Dee Bridge, City of Chester, shot during a cold snap, a couple of weeks ago. There has been a crossing here since Roman times, the present structure dates from 1387, and is still doing the exact same job it was built for Happy New Year everyone, best wishes for 2023 📷
Omnizorg in Apeldoorn (NL) is a very nice complex for me as an admirer of façades. The building's destination is a shelter for the homeless, drug addicts and people with psychiatric disorders. In spite of this noble, yet challenging function, the façade expresses a bright and structured playfulness through the colourful window shutters in many different positions in combination with the reflective / glazed surface of the bricks.
A detail of the Academy of the Arts in Berlin, which is, in my belief, a wonderful architecture - unlike the newer building close to the Brandenburg Gate.
Also I love this tiny camera. Always to have with me, extremely fast to shoot with and still under my control.

Electric power companies tend to build large and very heavy, structurally sound buildings because they sometimes contain elements like transformers that deal in very large amounts of energy. It is protection and strength, in case of a malfunction. Photograph taken in Sacramento, California.
Le QG 501 négocie la courbe appelée "Breslay", à l'est de la gare du Parc, alors qu'il est en route vers le triage Saint-Luc du CPKC avec un bon train. À droite, l’ancien portique, où étaient présents des signaux de type « searchlight » jusqu’à la démolition du triage d’Outremont, témoigne de l’existence d’une troisième voie évidemment retirée au début du siècle.
QG train 501 negotiates the curve called "Breslay", east of EXO Parc station, while enroute to the CPKC Saint-Luc yard with a good train. On the right, the old signal bridge structure, where “searchlight” signals were present until the demolition of the Outremont yard, testifies to the existence of a third track obviously removed at the beginning of the century.

Stonehenge is a prehistoric megalithic structure on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England, two miles (3 km) west of Amesbury. It consists of an outer ring of vertical sarsen standing stones, each around 13 feet (4.0 m) high, seven feet (2.1 m) wide, and weighing around 25 tons, topped by connecting horizontal lintel stones, held in place with mortise and tenon joints, a feature unique among contemporary monuments. Inside is a ring of smaller bluestones. Inside these are free-standing trilithons, two bulkier vertical sarsens joined by one lintel. The whole monument, now ruinous, is aligned towards the sunrise on the summer solstice and sunset on the winter solstice. The stones are set within earthworks in the middle of the densest complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred tumuli (burial mounds).

These small circular rock pools, only a few feet across, are built by local beach-goers. Resembling miniature loko (fishponds) of old, these modern-day constructions are built by fishermen to keep their catch alive. They also are used by families as a "kiddie pool" for toddlers.

Concrete things with holes in them, at the edge of a Lincolnshire field. I don't know what these things are. There are several of them in one location, quite big, probably been there a long time and no obvious purpose. One on its own might have been an artwork I suppose. Get the sun behind one of them and you can make silly effects.

Last image, for now, in the series of piers around Denmark. Think this one must be under repair or stowed away for the winter. Rough windy day but such a joy to be out and about.
Part of my 'Duffus Castle through the seasons' project.
The castle is situated on the Laich of Moray, a fertile plain that was once the swampy foreshore of Spynie Loch. This was originally a more defensive position than it appears today, long after the loch was drained.
The motte is a huge man-made mound, with steep sides and a wide ditch separating it from the bailey. The whole site is enclosed by a water-filled ditch, which is more a mark of its boundary than it is a serious defensive measure.
Duffus Castle was built by a Flemish man named Freskin, who came to Scotland in the first half of the 1100s. After an uprising by the ‘men of Moray’ against David I in 1130, the king sent Freskin north as a representative of royal authority.
He was given the estate of Duffus, and here he built an earthwork-and-timber castle. Freskin’s son William adopted the title of ‘de Moravia’ – of Moray. By 1200, the family had become the most influential noble family in northern Scotland, giving rise to the earls of Sutherland and Clan Murray.
In about 1270, the castle passed to Sir Reginald Cheyne the Elder, Lord of Inverugie. He probably built the square stone keep on top of the motte, and the curtain wall encircling the bailey. In 1305, the invading King Edward I of England gave him a grant of 200 oaks from the royal forests of Darnaway and Longmorn, which were probably used for the castle’s floors and roofs.
