Vertiginous pathway above Matlock Bath…not for the faint hearted or those of a wobbly disposition. The handrail is there so walkers can have something to hold on to whilst trying to push their lungs back inside their chest cavity.
Wow! I just want to thank everyone who took the time to comment and fav this image.
Haven't been out much this week - up late watching the Olympics
Can Little Britain really be 2nd in the medals table?
Must be something in the water!
One of my favourite views of London from Waterloo Bridge
I'm not a massive fan of very wide panoramas but there are so many great buildings here it's difficult to leave any out
Best to approach this from the South Bank
If like me, you park near the Embankment - better hold your breath as you walk up the stairs - I always find myself singing The Message by Grandmaster Flash to myself for some reason - if you follow my drift!
If you go to the Golden Jubilee bridges further down next to the Hungerford bridge there's a better view of Big Ben but it's a bit bouncy for longer exposures (unless your a fan of unintentional ICM)
(or known unknowns!) :)
Ami.e.s Français, ceci ne vous rappelle rien ?
Toujours est-il que le champ de bataille classé au patrimoine régional de Wallonie couvre une superficie de .... 1815 hectares !
Pour la "petite" histoire, la butte au fond est constituée d'un imposant tertre de terre surmonté d'un colossal Lion Belgique. Le monument est érigé en 1826, pour éterniser la gloire nationale, sur le site de la bataille de Waterloo, à Braine-l'Alleud, à la demande du roi Guillaume Ier des Pays-Bas qui voulut marquer l'endroit présumé où son fils ainé, le prince Guillaume II, fut blessé à l’épaule à la fin de la bataille.

"A four-faced clock hangs in the middle of the main concourse. Each panel has a diameter of 5 feet 6 inches (1.68 m). It was erected as part of the early 20th century rebuilding and designed by Gents' of Leicester. In 2010, the clock was fitted with technology to automatically switch to and from British Summer Time. Meeting 'under the clock at Waterloo' is a traditional rendezvous." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Waterloo_station
In a rare daylight appearance, Wisconsin & Southern train L464 runs westbound through Waterloo with it's train of ballast and local customer freight, under a summer bluebird sky.
Many thanks to Bruce S. and Josh D. for the intel on this catch.

Two more months before another goodbye. Three years flew by of waking up to this same light and brick view every day. Who knew a person could get so attached to four walls and a bed?
338 makes the daily trek towards Kirk Yard with a morning departure out of Waterloo. Here the train passes over Prairie Creek just outside of Masonville, about 40 mile east of Waterloo. Not alot of old wooden trestles left along the mainline in Iowa, but a few cool ones still holding up freight. The fog overnight has been coating everything in heavy frost for the past few days!
I love Waterloo Station! Another trip to London, this time for a Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk jaunt in Central London, around the Covent Garden precincts.
There was the most amazing waterloo sunset today, no wonder The Kinks wrote a song about it ;)

The Waterloo Monument near Ancrum in the Scottish Borders is a 150-foot tower, built between 1817 and 1824 to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo. It was designed by the architect Archibald Elliot, after the original monument collapsed. The monument stands on a small Plateau, atop the 781ft hill “Peniel Heugh”. Inside the monument is a 228 step spiral staircase (not for the faint hearted) leading to the balcony which encircles the top of the tower, giving a superb 360deg view of the surrounding Scottish Borders countryside.
