One of several shots I made from the Empire State Building.
Here you see the blocks around the Garment District, and to the extreme right, Hell's Kitchen, and planespotters might be able to make out the Phantom aboard the USS Intrepid ;-)
Behind is the Hudson River and Weehawken, New Jersey.
We were blessed with a gin clear sky, but my advice would be not bother paying the extra $$ to go to the very top as the view is no different really! The 86th floor is the main deck, being in open air. The 102nd floor is very small and totally enclosed.

CAT scan. On impact, the eye forces the relatively fragile bones towards the nasal cavity, resulting in a dramatic flow of blood from the nose. View is from below, so left (Impact side) is on the right here.
This beach picture was taken on the Applecross peninsula in North West Scotland. This beach is just a couple of miles north of Applecross and looks across to the Isle of Skye.
..............towards The Benett Arms (which has lost it's 'B'!) and was built in 1875. Tisbury, Wiltshire.
-------------------
The village has some historical significance. As in much of the Wiltshire downs, there is evidence of Bronze Age settlement and traces of a probable henge monument with some evidence of settlement 3–4000 years ago. To the southeast of the village there is a quite large hill fort, known as Castle Ditches.
The Saxon settlement came into the possession of Shaftesbury Abbey across the county border in Dorset. The administration centre was the monastic grange, still called Abbey Grange Place Farm. Its 15th-century thatched tithe barn, a Grade I listed building, bears the largest thatched roof in England. The old Wardour Castle lies approximately 2.5 miles (4.0 km) to the southwest of Tisbury.
The village's 13th-century prosperity came from the quarries that produced stone for the building of Salisbury Cathedral, and from the wool that supported a local cloth industry. The village suffered a serious setback with the Black Death in the mid-14th century but slowly recovered. Thomas Mayhew (31 March 1593 – 25 March 1682) who in 1642 established the first English settlement at Martha's Vineyard in North America, was born in Tisbury. On John Speed's map of Wiltshire of 1611, the village's name is recorded as Tilburye: the cartographer or the engraver clearly having mistaken a long s for an l.
Sir Matthew Arundell of Wardour Castle, a great landowner and a cousin of Queen Elizabeth, was entombed in the Tisbury parish church, St John's, in 1598. The churchyard also holds the graves of Rudyard Kipling's parents, John Lockwood Kipling and Alice Kipling (née MacDonald), and contains the second oldest tree in Great Britain, a large yew tree which is believed to be around 4,000 years old. According to one source, "After a long and distinguished artistic career in India, the Kiplings moved to a residence along Hindon Lane which they renamed 'The Gables'. Their famous son visited them here and, whilst working on his novel Kim, his father (his illustrator) used the drawings of one of the pupils from Tisbury Boys' School as the model for the main character."
Another photo of Hyacinth blooming towards spring. I wanted to make the "main" blossom pop out. Various techniques applied.

Before the US Navy Battleship USS Iowa (BB-61) found her new home in the POLA (Port of Los Angeles), a berth had to be determined. There were many, many possibilities. I was the LA photographer for Pacific Battleship Center, and we were still trying to get the U.S. Navy to award us the stewardship of the historic warship, as was the city of Vallejo. We also had to convince the Harbor Commission of the Port of Los Angeles to give us a berth that would accomodate the ship... including parking, and space for a land-based museum. I was assigned to photograph the many sites around the harbor, and that meant being out on the water! I tried to avoid red tape like it was a plague. As a retired Fire Captain, I went to the Captain in charge of Los Angeles City Fire Department's state-of-the-art Fireboat 2, the Warner L. Lawrence; within the hour we were out in the main channel, and I was getting my photos... including Berth 87, the USS Iowa's present berth in San Pedro, (southern) California, where she now resides as a museum ship. During this great trip around the harbor, I shot this video that shows the Vincent Thomas Bridge, the WWII Victory Ship SS Lane Victory (museum and memorial) a Cruise Ship at the port terminal.

John Swale uses a little body language to assist his bowl towards the desired destination. John is surrounded by teammates Tim Winnell, Brian Kingman and Val Chaney. In season 2013/2014 Mulgrave Country Club came to an arrangement with Pakenham that their usual "Saturday" Pennant matches (both Home and Away for Division 1 Sides only) would be played on a Friday night. First match was hosted by Pakenham on a cool October evening on their carpet green. Whilst narrowly beaten on this occasion, the Mulgrave players are already looking forward to the return match in late January when perhaps the weather might be a little warmer and the home ground advantage may help to reverse the result.
