The Platte river view looking north from the Lied Bridge is just as fantastic as the south view. It is wide and shallow, and lots of sandbars both above and below the water surface. Crossing this expansion by car or on feet can't compare to how Lewis and Clark crossed it. It is a view!

I went for a wonderful walk in the Lake District on Tuesday with a few friends. The weather was slate grey skies (typical weather for the lakes), but the banter and views were excellent.
This is a view of the amazing snow covered fell called Wetherlam which is 2,502 ft. It is the most northerly of the Coniston Fells, the range of fells to the north-west of Coniston village; its north-east slopes descend to Little Langdale. Little langdale tarn can be seen in the bottom of the valley.

Spiderman view over the endless city. From the Twin Towers of the Metropolitan Office, by Kenzo Tange, completed 1990.
For the lower hull markings, I wanted to have what the Constitution had, but things needed to be rearranged. The yellow circle, to my mind, is for the warp core or antimatter pods. So that is placed directly underneath the aft pylons, where I would put main engineering (the upper nacelle would have its own warp core in the saucer section). The irregular shape I assume is for deuterium tankage, so that is placed in the same relationship as on the Constitution. The small red square I assigned as the main tractor beam (used for towing other starships), so it too went in the same place as the Enterprise.
However, the remaining long grey rectangle had to be moved forward. On TOS-R, it opens like bomb bay doors to launch satellites. Furthermore, on the Enterprise there is a larger red square underneath the shuttlebay, on the undercut. I figured that was the main cargo bay hatch. So these two things still needed to be associated with the shuttlebay on the Dreadnought, which is forward instead of aft.
Taken at Greenwich Park, near the General Wolfe Statue, a perfect spot to see London from.
Note the Gherkin and St Paul's plus Tower Bridge are all viewable from here as is The Shard.
Thanks for all the views, Please check out my other photos and albums.
When in Bratislava, don't miss the trip to Devin castle!
The castle which witnessed the glory and fall of Great Moravia was blown up by Napoleon's army. The view from the top of the ruïn however is marvellous!
On high ground and seated above the rolling gardens of Wave Hill, you can view the Hudson River and the New Jersey Palisades.

Mehtaplı bir gecede Tophane, İstanbul
"Boğaziçi mehtabının en güzel olduğu aylar, Temmuz, Ağustos, bazen de Eylül ayıdır. On üç, on dört ve on beşinci günlerde eğer hava uygunsa halk deyimiyle 'tepsi gibi olan' ay, Boğaziçi'ne akseder. Hemen hemen her bölgesinden aşağı yukarı görülmesine rağmen özellikle Bebek'te, Kanlıca-Mihrabad'da, Kalender'de, Tarabya'da, Büyükdere'de daha güzel olur."

A far corner of the driveway - with a view. Spring is beginning here in this part of Maryland.
For Our Daily Challenge topic - 'Where the sidewalk ends" - From Shel Silverstein's poem. Here's first verse:
"There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind."
I think a realtor would call this a partial view. This is another test shot with my new Olympus 75mm lens. I checked before posting this shot, and there are hardly any people visible through the apartment windows.

Essaouira is a city in the western Moroccan economic region of Marrakech-Tensift-Al Haouz, on the Atlantic coast. Since the 16th century, the city has also been known by its Portuguese name of Mogador or Mogadore. The Berber name means the wall, a reference to the fortress walls that originally enclosed the city.
Essaouira has long been considered as one of the best anchorages of the Moroccan coast. The Carthaginian navigator Hanno visited in the 5th century BC and established the trading post of Arambys.
The Medina of Essaouira (formerly "Mogador") is a UNESCO World Heritage listed city, an example of a late 18th-century fortified town, as transferred to North Africa by European colonists. Major problems currently are deterioration of the extensive ramparts around the Medina; and widespread violation of laws against motorized vehicles (primarily mopeds) within the Medina.
The medina is home to many small arts and crafts businesses, notably cabinet making and 'thuya' wood-carving (using roots of the Tetraclinis tree), both of which have been practised in Essaouira for centuries.
The fishing harbour, suffering from the competition of Agadir and Safi remains rather small, although the catches (sardines, conger eels) are surprisingly abundant due to the coastal upwelling generated by the powerful trade winds and the Canaries Current. Essaouira remains one of the major fishing harbours of Morocco.
Essaouira is also renowned for its kitesurfing and windsurfing, with the powerful trade wind blowing almost constantly onto the protected, almost waveless, bay. Several world-class clubs rent top-notch material on a weekly basis. Parasols tend to be used on the beach as a protection against the wind and the blowing sand. Camel excursions are available on the beach and into the desert band in the interior.

I returned to Morocco on a short trip after seven years for a few days planned to be spent mainly in Marrakech and Essaouira - Morocco has remained as vibrant as I remembered and in some aspects is even more friendly to its foreign visitors.
Essaouira remains a gem on the western coast, with its marvelous old "Medina" quarter, picturesque harbor, busy small markets and narrow streets.
