Penrhyn is one of the most admired of the numerous mock castles built in the United Kingdom in the 19th century; Christopher Hussey called it, "the outstanding instance of Norman revival." The castle is a picturesque composition that stretches over 600 feet from a tall donjon containing family rooms, through the main block built around the earlier house, to the service wing and the stables.

Looking out of the living room window from our vacation home, where we spend quality time twice yearly as the sun was setting on a winters evening...There was a light dusting of very dry snow and there were sporadic gusts of wind blowing the snow off the ground....If the angle seems to be taken from an elevated position, it is. The living room is upstairs above the garage...When I look at this image, the song " A winters tale " By David Essex enters my mind...I always loved listening to that song whilst sitting in front of a blazing fire on a cold snowy winters evening....
Please press L on your keyboard for the best view...Thanks in advance for any faves and comments...Always appreciated. Andy :-}

The old town of Ljubljana, and especially the romantic surroundings of the Ljubljanica River, become an enchanting setting for the Christmas period, where many illuminations sculpt the cityscape. The magic recipe is to go early in the morning, before the massive arrival of tourists. Mist only adds to the charm of the place!
well, thanks to the folks who read my little tale, I get inspired every whipstitch, but I try and keep 'em short.
A funny thing happened on the way to Panther Creek Falls.... my GPS took me into Oregon and I accidentally came across Multnomah here, just about wrecked Gertrude, missed the left lane exit and had to come back to get it. Hordes of people there, all of which seemed to want the guy with the camera to take their pictures with their cell phones of them with the falls. After taking many I put them to work opening me a hole and allowing me to take two uninterrupted shots. I'll put the other in comments for those who haven't seen it.
I'm very grateful for all your visits and would like to thank you now for stopping by, and any comments you may leave. Much appreciated, John...

In search of a sunset on Koh Samui, I ended up at Taling Ngam at the southwestern end of the island. Unlike Koh Samui’s more popular beaches on the eastern side, this beach was pristine with few visitors wandering about.
So is Flickr really back online? I admit I have my doubts. :)

Sakura matsuri
さまざまのこと思い出す桜かな
Samazama no koto omoidasu sakura ka na
(Is it a cherry blossom that reminds me of various things?)
- Bashô Matsuo
In Japan, in late March and early April, they celebrate the Sakura matsuri, or cherry blossom festival.
All eyes will be on the light pink florets as they fill the city sidewalks, public parks, and temple gardens with quivering bursts of color in the gentle breeze of early spring. Picnicking under the blossoms is an ancient tradition. Then, all too soon, the petals begin to fall, and the scene becomes a distant memory.
One explanation of Bashô’s haiku is that he is recalling that he abandoned the way of samurai and decided to live the way of haiku. Or simply that cherry blossoms encourage random thoughts.
The sibilant repetition of the “s” and “z” sounds (samazama, omoidasu, sakura). The repeated consonants of “k” (koto, sakura, kana) produce a melodic sound to Bashô’s phrase.
“Do you remember many things?” is today’s colloquial understanding of the phrase.
A more literal translation is, “Various things, they call to mind, ah, cherry blossoms !”

Additional details on my blog.
I live in a fairy tale, that's for sure. I've been working like mad this past few weeks. With christmas season at work, I'm doing more book commercials than I care to mention. I've had no time what-so-ever to take pictures, but when I leave for work & come home from work, something like this greets me just right outside my apartment, every day. How can you NOT take a picture? Thankfully I've been keeping my camera gear with me at all times since I downsized from a big backpack to a medium shoulderbag, with fewer lighter lenses, so with the 1 1/2 minute I have while walking from the car to my apartment, I'm ready for something like this.
PS. Little to no post-processing, and no filters!
