I'm Back! I must admit I have been a bit remiss in adding some new photos on here, I had intended to post some more from the Lyndhurst Meeting but I thought I would break it up by adding the ones from December's Totton Disco first, along with an assortment of other photos and another addition to the Historic Winchester series.
A big thank you to all the people that have commented on the previous pictures, your support is much appreciated! Thanks also To Grace King and Linda Long for taking the photos at Totton!
My neighbor's dog, Kayla, the white Chihuahua, and Ali, my neighbor's sister's older mixed Australian Cattle Dog, watch me pass by their window as I walk my dog. Ali has since crossed the rainbow bridge prior to me releasing this image. She's definitely watching over her pack here on earth.
Holy Trinity Church, a Russian Orthodox church in Karakol.
The first church in Karakol, built when the city was founded, in 1869. Its purpose was to serve the troops stationed in Karakol, which it did until it was destroyed in an earthquake in 1889. A new wooden church was built on the same spot over the course of six years, and was consecrated in 1895.
Upon its completion, the spire of the new Holy Trinity Church was the tallest building in Karakol, at 26m tall. The church was active until 1917, when it became property of the state, and was used as everything from a theater to warehouse. In 1947, the church started holding services again, but in the 1960s was again used for other purposes.
After independence in 1991, the building was returned to church authorities, who started repairs and reconstructions for the damaged interior and exterior.
California's first theatre was built in Monterey, California. It was originally built in 1844 as lodging for sailors by John "Jack" Swan. Behind the building formerly used as a theater sits this smaller adobe building. I do not know if it was built the same year. It served as a Curio Shop for a while.
No, I am not going to straighten this photo. Why? Because the window was put in crooked. They must not have had a level.
See link to an article from last year that details some of the theatre's history and plans for restoration.

so you're tryin' to do what they did
your friends that turned to liquid
and got lost in a sea
now you're drowning me
with your talk of 4-leaf clovers
you turn to rocks and omen
to beat the ambient harm
that is bruising your karma
oh I wish my arms were wider
I wish that I could hide you
so you could rest and repair
without the blanket of sorrow
the thick and the grey
your blanket of woe
is so heavy and stained
and it only weighs you down
so you thought that getting sober
would mean your life was over
I don't think it's that bad
I don't think it's that sad
just you sleep a little, baby
leave the world alone and later
if you wake up alive
that old blanket of sorrow
could be feathers and down
your blanket of woe
would leave you alone
and I could love you 'til you drown...
come to me, let's drown
come baby, let's drown
in feathers and down

I saw a great foto here on flickr.com - not so long ago.
One of these "I must paint this one" things, I find sometimes by just passing through the internet.
So I saved it and made a note "clefon" ... Well there is a member of this name, but there are no photos (anymore?)...
But whatever happens to the orginal - here is my Version of this sad looking girl. I added the windowframe and changed the jacket for my painting.
Sometimes the best photographs happen in the gaps between plans.
On a work trip to Northern Norway, I suddenly found myself with time to spare. A rental car, a camera bag, and a few unscheduled hours before my own flight turned into an open invitation to explore. This spot is located roughly 2.2 kilometers in front of the runway at Evenes Airport, placing incoming aircraft surprisingly close as they descend toward landing.
Instead of pointing the camera at the planes, I turned it inward—using a single car door as a frame, a window within a window. What started as a playful idea became a visual pause: a moment of stillness, curiosity, and quiet humor, set against open landscape, spring light, and northern airspace.
Sometimes photography is not about the destination, but about what you notice while waiting.
Fun fact: Evenes Airport is one of Norway’s key strategic airports in the north, serving both civilian traffic and military operations—meaning aircraft approaches here are often lower and closer than many travelers expect.
Quiz: Can you spot what car this door belongs to? Give your answer below!
In Norway we have many jokes about our neighbors to the east, Sweden and Swedes. Here's one of them:
Do you know why the Swedes bring a a cardoor when they are out on a picnic? Because, when it gets too hot they can just roll down the window to ventilate........

A summary of events:
1. Door to residence is locked
2. Guy working the bar says "Are you with the film crew?"
3. Liger says "yes"
4. Door opens
5. Another man who was previously wearing a box on his head escorts us into the elevator
6. I pretend to talk on the phone with someone in the building hoping the elevator escort doesn't actually follow us onto the 20th floor
7. Escort talks about how Detroit is built on cantilevers (we pretend to be interested)
8. Elevator door opens and the escort says his goodbyes (a relief)
9. Pretty much wide open to the roof
10. Successful rooftop experience

Sunderland has a remarkable history of innovation in shipbuilding and marine engineering. From the development of turret ships in the 1890s and the production of Doxford opposed piston engines after the First World War through to the designs for Liberty ships in the 1940s and SD14s in the 1960s. Sunderland has much to be proud of.
Tyne & Wear Archives cares for tens of thousands of photographs in its shipbuilding collections. Most of these focus on the ships – in particular their construction, launch and sea trials. This set looks to redress the balance and to celebrate the work of the men and women who have played such a vital part in the region’s history. The images show the human side of this great story, with many relating to the world famous shipbuilding and engineering firm William Doxford & Sons Ltd.
The Archives has produced a short blog to accompany these images.

Doing street photography in The Philippines was amazing. Having a camera around your neck in the rural provinces draws a lot of attention and oftentime, an invitation to take a picture, capturing a moment, one with laughter, humor, and curiosity.

As the frost crystals on my window melt in the warmth of the rising sun, the light, passing through the now wet glass, projects these interesting, elongated reflections / shadows,
Cheers and thanks for coming by.
Now seeing a few windows of our neighbours with their Christmas ornaments and lights on their windows and balconies.
Just a windowframe, nothing more.

The iron window frame on the top floor and filled-in window on the middle floor, mentioned in the previous photo, can be clearly seen.
I made my annual pilgrimage to the City of Liverpool over the last few days, while there I paid a visit to the Liverpool Maritime Museum and Slavery Museum. While I was there, I spotted this window frame and the stark nature of the black sillhouette and white light made an impact while reading the story of slavery and the affect that it had on so many millions of people who were forced from their homes, family and country. Sadly, slavery didn't end, it still goes on today. We all have a responsibility to eradicate it for the benefit of us all.
