2/5 National Gallery

Looking up at the central dome of London's #NationalGallery

#Laowa 6mm f2 (on my #OMsystems OM1). This is a slight #panorama as I didn't want to lie on the floor in the middle of a tour group.

This architectural photograph captures an ornate domed ceiling viewed from directly below. The composition features a magnificent central circular skylight with an elaborate geometric glass pattern radiating from its golden center. Surrounding this central dome are four partial domed sections positioned at the corners, creating a symmetrical cross-like arrangement. The architecture showcases lavish Baroque or Neoclassical detailing with intricate gold moldings, coffered panels, decorative medallions, and rich burgundy accents throughout. The geometric precision and ornamental craftsmanship demonstrate exceptional Renaissance-inspired design.

Robert Clothier was known across Canada as Relic on The Beachcombers.
But long before that show premiered, he was a decorated Second World War pilot who flew over 50 combat missions in Europe and had to learn to walk again following a crash.
This is his amazing story.

Mondsee
I thought, I would end this series with my favorite lakes in the Salzkammergut.
Lake Mondsee is nestled between the striking peaks of the Drachenwand Massif and rolling hills of the surrounding area.
Kreisten, is there to remember those who drowned in an accident in the 18th hundreds.

I have no idea why I am sharing this. If you know a miner give them a hug and a thank you

Trevor Henschel @northwindscold.bsky.social · 2d

The first time I went underground I was on a tour. My uncle took
My brother and I. I will never forget seeing where a miner had recently died. The machine he was operating was completely covered by a piece of rock. The guys lunch bucket was sitting on the fender of the machine.

This fox approached me this morning while I was walking. It wasn’t afraid of me and got within 10 feet of me. I assume someone had been feeding it. 😟

So many cool roots along the sides of this path in Wendover Woods today.

#WoodlandPhotography #Autumn #WendoverWoods #Bucks #CanonR6II

A view of a woodland path covered with brown fallen leaves. The main feature of the photo is the roots of a tree on the left hand side, above the path. In the distance are some yellow and green leaves on the trees.

More visible roots on some trees above brown leave-covered paths. There is a kinked branch from the right hand tree reaching across the path, and lots of pale yellow and green leaves in the distance.

In South Africa's Cape Peninsula a wave explodes against a cliff, in one of the world's highest impact zones. Freak waves occur rarely, but patience was rewarded and it came straight at my camera, exploding at least 5 m above sea level!⁠

Nancy Shea is at Halifax Harbour Waterfront. 4h • ..

So this is not Al generated. No need to research if it is
real. We were walking home from the gym along the waterfront, where of course there were 3 cruise ships in with many passengers. This is what we have waiting for non Canadian visitors. The passengers, we saw, were loving it and this guy was a great ambassador for Canada I*l.

It was for This Hour has 22 minutes and I will definitely be watching it next week a and he was talking with passengers which was fun to watch

In Greenland's Scoresby Sund, a deep blue iceberg seems to glow from within as it is illuminated by the late afternoon sun, while glittering ice fragments float within its soft reflections.

First snow storm of the season was a pretty extreme event. Lots of trees blown over and power outages. But it did make for some nice photos. #photograpy #iphone

After a snow storm the foreground has a stream that is partially frozen over with snow. Centred are some stunning Tamrack trees which have golden needles that have to drop off.

Probably my favourite place I've ever been. Elfol, Isle of Skye.

Taken around midnight, a 30 minute exposure with the aid of an extreme 10 stop filter. Cooked all the colours of the summer solstice.
