Breaking! Loch Ness monster debunked!

#scotland #meme #lochness #mystery
A four-panel cartoon humorously depicts the Loch Ness Monster discovery in a simple, bold-lined style on a light blue background. In the top left, a stick-figure person on a brown wooden boat excitedly shouts "There it is Ness Monster!" pointing at a long green plesiosaur-like neck emerging from wavy blue Loch Ness waters. ​ Top right shows two figures panicking with "Oh no! We've been found out! Let's get out of here!" as the green serpentine neck looms nearby. Bottom left repeats the boat, neck, and monster fully visible with bubbles, heightening the reveal. ​ Bottom right zooms on the punchline: three green Nessies—one adult plesiosaur spitting water, a smaller yellow one, and tiny orange baby—crammed inside a yellow submarine, with "tikibarthell.com" watermarked below, satirizing cryptozoology myths. ​

Such a Lovely evening :) RAC degree :) #freemason #RAC #edinburgh
Indoor photograph taken in a traditional lodge room shows a person standing beside a cream stone pedestal carved with vertical characters, in front of a dark upholstered kneeling bench. The person wears a black tuxedo with bow tie, white shirt, black shoes, and distinctive regalia: a blue velvet jacket, a wide sash of alternating red and blue triangles worn from right shoulder to left hip, and an embroidered white apron with red-and-blue triangular border, golden tassels, and central emblem. The walls display framed coats of arms, plaques, carved wooden chairs, and statues holding lamps, with polished wooden floor and patterned black‑and‑white carpet beneath the subject. ​

🪬🧿 Memento Mori

#mementomori #mortality #death #graveyard #gravestone #skull #feather #somber #reflection #transience #alttext #scotland
A low-angle shot captures a weathered, moss-covered gravestone, epitomizing 'memento mori'. The stone, aged and worn, bears the inscription "MEMENTO MORI" at the top, a Latin phrase meaning 'remember you must die'. Below this inscription, a symbolic skull and crossbones are carved into the stone, serving as a stark reminder of mortality. A single, dark feather leans against the gravestone, adding a touch of poignant beauty to the scene. The foreground is filled with verdant grass and rich soil, highlighting the earthiness of the burial ground. In the blurred background, other gravestones stand, their details obscured by the depth of field. The somber yet reflective atmosphere of the image invites contemplation on the transient nature of life.

🪬🧿 Edinburgh view

#edinburgh #scotland #arthursseat #landscape #travel #history #architecture #alttext
An eye-level wide shot captures the historic landscape of Edinburgh, Scotland, with the iconic Arthur's Seat mountain dominating the skyline. The sky transitions from a vibrant blue at the top to a soft, golden hue near the horizon, speckled with a few wispy clouds. Arthur's Seat, a prominent geological feature, showcases a rugged, rocky face catching the sunlight. At the foot of the mountain, a cluster of buildings, including a distinct church, nestles amidst greenery. The church's architecture, with its steeple and arched windows, adds to the scene's historical charm. Below the buildings, a well-maintained cemetery is visible, with neatly arranged headstones and grassy pathways. A hint of foliage in the foreground adds depth to the composition, suggesting the vantage point from which the photo was taken. The overall ambiance is serene, reflecting the timeless beauty of Edinburgh's natural and architectural landmarks.

An eye-level long shot captures the rugged beauty of Glencoe, Scotland, under a dramatic, cloudy sky. The view is framed by towering, grassy mountains on either side, their slopes marked with natural terraces and a patchwork of green vegetation. These mountains create a natural valley that descends into the frame. A winding road traces its path through the valley floor, accompanied by a stream that mirrors its curves. In the distance, a small body of water reflects the subdued light, adding depth to the scene. The overall mood is one of remote wilderness, with the heavy clouds casting shadows that emphasize the landscape's contours and rugged texture.

Craigmillar Castle stands in ruins, a testament to its storied past. The weathered stone walls, bearing the marks of time and conflict, rise against a serene sky painted with shades of turquoise and adorned with soft, white clouds.

The ruins of a stone church stand silhouetted against the sun and trees. The front of the church is shaped like a triangle, and the stone is covered with lichen. The sun shines through a rectangular opening at the top of the church, creating a starburst effect. Trees are visible in the background, their leaves filtering the sunlight. The image is somewhat underexposed, which gives it a moody, atmospheric feel. Temple Village, Midlothian Scotland

🪬🧿 Grosvenor Crescent

#snow #winter #vintage #church #edinburgh #blackandwhite #architecture #gothic #cityscape #nostalgia #alttext
A vintage black and white photograph depicts a snow-covered street alongside a church with a prominent steeple. The scene is laden with snow, blanketing the ground and adorning the rooftops and trees. A row of multi-story buildings lines the left side of the street, their architecture characterized by evenly spaced windows and bay-like protrusions. In front of these buildings, snow-covered lampposts stand, with one particularly prominent in the foreground. A figure, likely a person clearing snow, is visible in the street, adding a sense of activity to the otherwise serene winter landscape. The church, with its imposing steeple, dominates the background, its gothic architecture detailed with pointed arches and intricate stonework. The sky is overcast, contributing to the monochrome palette of the image and enhancing the sense of a winter day. The overall composition emphasizes the stillness and quietude of a snow-covered urban scene in a bygone era.

A close-up studio shot shows an upright, rectangular carved stone or metal artifact attached to a yellow and brown stone surface, possibly a wall, with two metal mounting brackets. The carving depicts several animals and a long cross in low relief. Three deer stand above the cross at the top center. The deer on the right has large antlers. Two more deer stand below the cross. On the right side of the artifact, a vertical band of unreadable, carved text runs from top to bottom.

No bubbles! #memesdaily #cows
A cartoon meme shows a black-and-white cow standing in a grassy field while her calf nurses underneath. The mother cow looks annoyed, eyes narrowed and mouth open as if scolding, while the calf has cheeks puffed and small bubbles coming from his mouth, implying he is blowing air into her udder. ​ A white caption box below reads, "For the last time, Junior, stop blowing milk bubbles! ... You're giving me gas!" turning a barnyard scene into a playful joke about bloating. The bottom features the neon green slime-style "Memesponge" logo against a black background. ​

A comic strip shows The Hulk slurping soup noisily from a bowl at a diner table, with soup splattering everywhere and a speech bubble saying "Gesundheit." Captain America and Spider-Man sit across from him, reacting with surprise; Cap points at Hulk while Spidey holds a spoon. The diner window reads "SPIDEY DINE," created by Scott Hilburn in 2016. ​ ​

An aerial photograph shows the Dunmore Pineapple, a quirky 18th‑century stone summerhouse near Airth in Stirlingshire, Scotland, sitting at the centre of a long brick walled garden surrounded by trees and lawns. The low, orangey-pink classical building stretches horizontally with small sash windows and a pedimented central doorway, above which rises an ornate, oversized stone pineapple cupola sculpted with layered spiky leaves that dominates the scene against the green grass and woodland backdrop.

🪬🧿 Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, Scotland

#scotland #dunfermline #travel #beautiful #history
The interior of Dunfermline Abbey in Scotland, showcasing grand Romanesque architecture. The perspective is from a low angle, looking down a long nave lined with massive, cylindrical stone pillars. One prominent pillar is carved with a deep zigzag chevron pattern. These columns support heavy, rounded stone arches that create a rhythmic tunnel effect toward the back of the church. To the left, stained glass windows glow with soft light, while a large, rectangular leaded window at the far end illuminates the stone walls. The ceiling features dark wooden beams against a light-colored surface. The atmosphere is quiet and historic, with warm light hitting the textured, sandy-colored masonry of the ancient abbey.
