This guy looked an interesting character. It was the Easter Fair here in Tywyn, lots of people and lots of market traders about.
Visby Cathedral (Swedish: Visby domkyrka, officially Visby S:ta Maria domkyrka) is a cathedral in Visby in Sweden. Belonging to Visby Cathedral Parish of the Church of Sweden, it serves the Diocese of Visby. and was inaugurated on 27 July in 1225
Visby Cathedral was built as a church for German traders in Visby. It was financed by a fee that every German trader arriving in Visby had to pay. Construction started at the end of the 12th century, and the church was probably finished circa 1190. Rebuilding of the church seems to have started already in 1211 however, and in 1225 a new choir was inaugurated. Originally the church was probably only used by visiting Germans, but as some of these settled permanently in Visby, it developed into a church for both resident and visiting German traders, and with time also native Gotlanders. Therefore, when it was consecrated in 1225 by the Bishop of Linköping, it was declared a church for two congregations, each with their own priest: one for visitors, and one for natives. It developed into one of the most important churches of the city, and by the late Middle Ages it was the second largest church in Visby. It is today the only medieval church of Visby still in use, with twelve other churches in the town preserved as ruins only.
Following the Reformation, the church was transformed into a parish church for the town of Visby. All other churches were abandoned. Shortly after the Reformation, in 1572, Gotland was made into its own Diocese, and the church designated its cathedral.

Visby domkyrka, Sankta Maria kyrka (eller mer fullständigt Visby Sankta Maria domkyrka) är en kyrka i Visby, vilken är församlingskyrka för Visby domkyrkoförsamling och domkyrka för Visby stift.
Kyrkan, under medeltiden kallad "Vår kära frus kyrka", byggdes ursprungligen som gästkyrka för tyska handelsmän. Den 27 juli 1225 invigdes den som församlingskyrka av biskop Bengt från Linköping och anledningen till invigningen var sannolikt att den nya tyska församlingskyrkan S:t Nicolai förstörts av brand. Sankta Maria kyrka hade från 1225 inga bestämda geografiska församlingsgränser, utan var en församlingskyrka med två kyrkoherdar. Den ena kyrkoherden var för den tyska församlingen, den andra för den gutniska församlingen, vilken ända fram till 1400-talet bara var en tredjedel så stor som den tyska, sedan var de jämnstora. (Det är alltså fel att för tiden efter 1225 beteckna kyrkan som ”tyskarnas kyrka”.) På grund av krympande underlag bestämde sig församlingarna 1429 för att i fortsättningen bara ha en gemensam kyrkoherde. År 1533 eller 1534 blev kyrkan stadens församlingskyrka sedan Visbyborna tvingats överge S:t Hans. Vid Visby stifts bildande 1572 blev Sankta Maria domkyrka.

Kite Aerial Photography (KAP) on Elliot Bay. May 17, 2011. This image was taken by a camera lofted by a kite.
This image is of the waterfront north of downtown Seattle, showing the Louis Dreyfus grain terminal on Elliot Bay, and the Tetien Trader grain cargo ship.
Visible in this image is grain dust floating off the deck of the ship and out onto the water. Loading operations were occurring while I was there, causing this small dust cloud.
Also, for special bonus points, see the seagull flying well below my kite near the very bottom of the image. :)
Oh, and one more. Check out the satellite image of this location on the map. When that image was taken there happened to be a boat docked, so google maps looks pretty similar to what it looked like that night.
More about this vessel can be found here: www.marinetraffic.com/ais/shipdetails.aspx?mmsi=239875000...
Wind conditions were heavy, and a bit gusty for my Rok in this site, but the wind was out of the right direction to approach the ship.

North Yorkshire Police and trading standards officers from North Yorkshire County Council and the City of York Council joined forces with colleagues across the UK in April 2013 to deliver a concentrated multi-agency crack-down on doorstep crime.
Rogue traders and pushy doorstep sellers who use fraud to con vulnerable people into paying for unnecessary or vastly overpriced work to their homes were targeted as part of the national Operation Rogue Trader week of action.
The week of action ran from 22 to 26 April and was led by Operation Liberal, the national intelligence unit for distraction burglary and associated travelling criminality, and Trading Standards.
In York and North Yorkshire and across the UK, hundreds of officers were out on the streets executing warrants, identifying vehicles used by criminals through Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) and conducting intelligence-led patrols in areas where older or vulnerable people live.

This was a great old British Thames Trader 75 Diesel lorry in a 'groovy' shade of green taken at a recent classic car show in Bethersden in Kent, England. It was signwritten in the Gallagher Building and Civil Engineering livery from Maidstone. They certainly don't make 'em like that anymore! - pity!!!
