Linda and I just got home from three days at Jackson, Wyoming and Grand Teton National Park. We were too late for good fall color but we had a great time anyway. These buildings were the Thomas Murphy homestead located on Mormon Row, now a historic district within the National Park. Murphy laid claim to the land in 1908 and took title in 1915. The background is part of the base of the Grand Teton mountain range.
The reason I am looking at old photographs of Thomas is that I'm making a needle-felted portrait of him and I need to check some of his markings. This is a scan of an 8x10 print (analog). I like Thomas's "pyramid" stance with the triangle of the pennant, and the edges of the curtains.
Wer hier rein will muß äußerst viel Glück haben und die richtige Tür wissen. Diese Kirche ist meistens verschlossen. Der schon recht strenge Frühklassizismus wird durch Johann Baptist Enderles Fresken im Rokokostil abgemildert. Wieder aufgebaut nach einem Brand 1790 - 91 und danach bis Anfang des 19. Jhs ausgestattet. Hier die SW-Variante; die Farbvariante

On the left, the church of St Thomas of Canterbury, built 1874-5. On the right, the tower of the church of St Mary Magdalene. This church was begun in Norman times, with the tower being rebuilt in 1503. The tower is now the only remaining part of St Mary, the rest having been demolished in 1871 with some of the stone being used to enlarge the nearby St George’s which itself was destroyed, apart from its tower, in WW2.
Built originally in 1904 by Hunslet of Leeds.
Rebuild later in 1988 and in 2020.

At the outdoor jazz and blues festival I was standing at the edge of the stage ... just waiting for the players to begin so that I could make some images during their performance …. as I glanced to my left I saw Thomas beside me … and asked if I could make his picture … happily he let me … it was only later in the afternoon that I’d come to realize that he was mentally unbalanced and disruptive … but I’m grateful I didn’t notice that before I made this shot … all I saw then was gentle and vulnerable and kind... and the sweet beauty of his presence … and I’m sharing this portrait of Thomas cause I think that you’ll be able to see that in him too .......
I loved the little fluffy cloud, but the light was much to bright and straight onto the church, making it 2D. But as a place to be on a November day, it was heavenly.

I posted a rusty locomotive image into several groups a few days ago, and someone in another group mentioned Thomas, so I couldn't resist throwing this together.
Another image from Thomas, Oklahoma on June 15th. This storm produced a tornado before this that damaged the town of Putnam, and then would drop another shortly after we left this spot. The anvil lightning was out of control!
Die St.Thomas Kirch, 1864 bis 1869 erbaut, ist die letzte Magistratskirche Berlins. Wunderschön am Mariannenplatz gelegen..
This candle marks where the Tomb of Thomas à Becket previously stood in Canterbury Cathedral's Trinity Chapel. The tomb was destroyed on the orders of King Henry VIII in 1538 as ‘he had been a traitor to his king, and defied his honour’. All the tomb’s gold and jewels were taken and Thomas’s bones were burnt. One of the jewels, a large ruby given by the King of France, is now part of the crown jewels in the Tower of London.
Thomas Becket (also known as Saint Thomas of Canterbury, Thomas of London, and later Thomas à Becket; (21 December c. 1119 (or 1120) – 29 December 1170) was Archbishop of Canterbury from 1162 until his murder in 1170. He is venerated as a saint and martyr by both the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion. He engaged in conflict with Henry II, King of England, over the rights and privileges of the Church and was murdered by followers of the king in Canterbury Cathedral. Soon after his death, he was canonised by Pope Alexander III.

The European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) is the European Space Agency's main technology development and test centre for spacecraft and space technology. It is situated in Noordwijk, South Holland, in the western Netherlands.
At ESTEC, about 2500 engineers, technicians and scientists work hands-on with mission design, spacecraft and space technology. ESTEC provides extensive testing facilities to verify the proper operation of spacecraft, such as the Large Space Simulator (LSS), acoustic and electromagnetic testing bays, multi-axis vibration tables and the ESA Propulsion Laboratory (EPL). Prior to launch, almost all of the equipment that ESA launches is tested in some degree at ESTEC.
