Das historische Haus wurde 1859 vom Besitzer der Osterburg E. van Wingene für seinen Großknecht Berend Reints Valkema und dessen Braut Jantje Janshen gebaut. Der Großknecht kaufte gleichzeitig das Gartengrundstück. Rückkauf 1862, da das Ehepaar Valkema nach Amerika auswanderte. Das Landarbeiterhaus gehörte zum Hof „Groot Plaats“ bis zu seinem Verkauf an Professor Bunse (anerkannter Denmalpfleger und Architekt u. a. der à-Lasco-Bibliothek in Emden), der das Haus Ende der 1990 Jahre mit größter Sorgfalt und Liebe zum Detail restaurierte. In der Wohnstube und im Flur wurde der Originalfußboden mit Tonfliesen bzw. Ziegelsteinen in Flachlage erhalten. In der Wohnstube befindet sich noch eine typische Butze und ein offener Kamin. Die Feuerstelle wurde mit alten ostfriesischen Bibelfliesen ausgekachelt.

Close to Wolvesey Castle is Wharf Mill, the principle grain mill in Winchester which is built across the Itchen Navigation Canal.
There has been a mill on this site since the Twelfth Century, the medieval mill took it's name from Segim's Font, a nearby stream which was diverted to increase the water power for the mill, the existing mill was built in 1885, and has been converted into flats, the upper ones of which have lovely views up and down the canal, it was also used in the Sophia Loren, Richard Burton remake of the film Brief Encounter.

Fisherman's Wharf is a neighborhood and popular tourist attraction in San Francisco, California, U.S.
It roughly encompasses the northern waterfront area of San Francisco from Ghirardelli Square or Van Ness Avenue east to Pier 35 or Kearny Street. It is best known for being the location of Pier 39, San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, the Cannery Shopping Center, Ghirardelli Square, a Ripley's Believe it or Not museum, the Musée Mécanique, the Wax Museum at Fisherman's Wharf, Forbes Island and restaurants and stands that serve fresh seafood, most notably dungeness crab and clam chowder served in a sourdough bread bowl. Some of the restaurants, like Pompeii's and Alioto's #8, go back for three generations of the same family ownership. Nearby Pier 45, there is a chapel in memory of the "Lost Fishermen" of San Francisco and Northern California though it might not always be open every day. Once a year, the chapel has a service for the lost fishermen.
Transportation to Fisherman's Wharf can be provided in a variety of ways. The F Market streetcar runs through the area, the Powell-Hyde cable car lines runs to Aquatic Park, at the edge of Fisherman's Wharf, and the Powell-Mason cable car line runs a few blocks away. Other popular areas in San Francisco, such as Chinatown, Lombard Street and North Beach are all located in proximity to Fisherman's Wharf.
Fisherman's Wharf plays host to many San Francisco events, including a world-class fireworks display for Fourth of July, and some of the best views of the Fleet Week air shows.
One of the city's most popular figures is a harmless but controversial resident of Fisherman's Wharf called the World Famous Bushman, a local street performer who sits behind some branches and startles people who walk by. He has gained notoriety during the 28 years he has been doing this.
DENYSE'S FERRY
THE SCENE OF THE FIRST RESISTANCE TO BRITISH ARMS IN THE MIDDLE STATES
A stirring scene was enacted at Denyse's Ferry on the 22d
of August, 1776, when a fleet of British vessels arranged
themselves a half-mile distance from the Long Island shore.
Across on Staten Island thousands of Hessians
marched to the water's edge to embark, and twice as many British
soldiers followed them. A signal gun roared out, and simultaneously
hundreds of oars tossed up the water, and the great vessels prepared
to come closer to the shore. Ships' boats advanced, spitting flame
into every thicket and toward every point where Patriots might
be concealed. At Denyse's Ferry, which is
now Fort Hamilton, there were three houses, the dwelling
of Denyse DENYSE, that of Adrian BENNET, and the house of
Simon CORTELYOU, violent Loyalist. A ball fired from one
of the British ships passed through BENNET's kitchen;
another tore away part of a fence in front of the house of
Denyse Denyse; but the house of Simon Cortelyou, where a
woman is supposed to have waved a red petticoat as a signal
for the British to land, remained unscathed. Up on the bluff
near the landing at Denyse's Ferry a tiny battery spit at the
boats of the advancing horde. Soon the shore was dense with
the landing troops, and Long Island paralyzed, knowing not
where to turn. The country people dwelling on the plain bordering
Gravesend Bay had the choice of placing themselves under the
protection of unwelcome invaders or of abandoning their farms.
Most of the neighborhood in the vicinity of Denyse's Ferry were
Loyalists, who hailed the coming of the troops as their natural
protectors. 15,000 strong the British came, Bringing fear to
the inhabitants and spreading their forces like a pestilence over
Long Island. "Thus," it is recorded, "commenced the first resistance
to British arms in the Midd1e States, on the spot where Fort Hamilton
now stands."
Robert E. LEE, when he was stationed at Fort Hamilton, was a
vestryman at old St. John's Church, and "Stonewall" JACKSON was
baptized in this church. It is said he was a rigid keeper of the Sabbath,
never travelling on that day nor attending to any details. of business.
He attended church morning and evening, and taught in the Sabbath school.
11 x 14"/28 x 35cm. There is an Asian story that butterflies carry the souls of the dead to heaven. Early Native Americans believed that part of the human soul was captured in photographs. Combining these two ideas, I used media war images to create butterflies after having a dream in which human created patterns became so pervasive that butterflies started mimicking them. Could war images be turned into something beautiful? Dangerous thought. This is one of many butterflies I have designed using computer graphics then hand painting and drawing on the computer print. The butterfly's pattern is a digitally enhanced war image of an armoured bulldozer. 2000-present.

I took a single frame above my head in a crowd and got a very underexposed image. After tweaking in Lightroom and then processing in HDR Efex Pro I am pretty happy with the outcome. I need to learn the right way to process for skin tones when doing these HDR images but this is the limit of what I can do right now.
Macao se compose de la péninsule de Macao et de deux îles, Taipa et Coloane, qui sont reliées ensemble par des terres gagnées sur la mer (l'isthme de Cotai), totalisant une superficie de 29,5 km2. Macao est situé sur la côte sud de la République populaire de Chine, à l'ouest de l'embouchure de la rivière des Perles et à 60 km de Hong Kong, qui se trouve approximativement en face de Macao. Les frontières Nord et Ouest communiquent avec la zone économique spéciale de Zhuhai qui fait partie de la province de Guangdong.
