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.

A long weekend down in Kent / Sussex produced a mixture of fabulously warm and sunny weather and, more typical for the time of year, dull days with a biting wind. One of the sunnier days was last Friday, which also came with some early morning mist to add to the atmosphere.
In this shot, framed by the signal gantry, a Southeastern 10-car train catches the sun trying to break through as it approaches Sevenoaks station with the 9.51am Tunbridge Wells - London Charing Cross (2H74).
Built by GEC Alsthom at the Metro-Cammell plant in Birmingham, 2-car 'Networker' unit 466009 is leading, with a pair of 4-car class 465s, units 465927 and 465931, on the back.
Looks best full-screen.
Apologies for tardy responses recently - should catch up over the next couple of days.

"The artist nodded, sighed and joined the little boat.
Excited to find out where the Phoenix would guide him through the sea of Neverending, he sat and started to draw on his papers.
Some flowers and trees popped up in his mind and on the horizon, he could see Sakura Tales.
The new adventure of his history began....."

Old and broken pillions become a thing of interest for my camera. As i lean over a bridge to compose a shot, the once useful pier is little more than sticks in the mud. Their combined direction contributes to the notion of time and looking back on a different era. However, the interplay of colors, textures, and shapes make and engrossing tale of change.
After a quick unload at the pit, the North Shore Mining Tailings Job, led by NSMX 651 is now headed back down the grade for a quick trip back to Silver Bay for another refill of tailings from the iron ore making process.

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 !”
Chiwa is a city of approximately 50,000 people located in Xorazm Region, Uzbekistan. According to archaeological data, the city was established in the beginning of the Christian era. It is the former capital of Khwarezmia and the Khanate of Chiwa. Itchan Kala in Khiva was the first site in Uzbekistan to be inscribed in the World Heritage List (1991).
The Islom-Hoja Minaret at Khiva is the tallest, 57m tall minaret, in Uzbekistan. Most of Chiwa's monuments are hundreds of years younger than those in Bukhara and Samarkand.
Islam-Hoja Minaret was built in 1908 by Islam-Hoja of the Prime Minister of Khan. The minaret is a symbol of the country, is an early example of the architecture of the XIV century. The construction was completed in 1910. The tapered shape makes up more slender minaret and strength. The famous Kalyan Minaret is inferior to the height of Islam-Khoja Minaret. Its height is 56 meters and a base diameter is 9.5 meters. Trunk of the minaret is made of bricks, decorated with white and blue tiles made of glazed ceramic.
Islam-Khoja Minaret is the tallest structure in Khiva, visible from anywhere in the city. After rising to the top of the minaret, you will see the most beautiful panorama of the eastern fairy tale city Khiva.
