I love this Art Nouveau style peacock stained glass window on Fitzroy Place in Glasgow. The door handle is pretty special, too.

For #WindowsOnWednesday I have one that I've driven and walked by thousands of times and only just finally saw how this one plays with the mural across the way.

Yes. It's complicated here too, but at least the purchase of weapons is severely limited and there are no squads of men with their faces covered hunting for immigrants 😒 I try not to watch the videos of the arrests because they are shocking to me 🫣

Good morning! ☕️ Happy Wednesday to everyone! 🤗 🌹
"Shall we go into the garden? I'll show you to the roses..." R.Sheridan
#RoseWednesday #Rose #DailyFlowers #flowersphotography

The photograph shows a close-up of a rose bloom, possibly the 'Pierre de Ronsard' variety.

Flower: Large, double, with creamy or pale yellow petals at the edges and a bright pink center. Drops of water are visible on the petals.

Background: The background is blurred, revealing green leaves and perhaps part of a structure, creating the impression of a garden or park.

Lighting: Soft lighting accentuates the delicate color transitions on the petals.

The maple tree stands in bright, colorful attire, reliable, as if it wants to convince everyone that it is the main beauty of autumn 🍁
#ColorADay #RedWed #Autumn #Fall #EastCoastKin #mobilephotography #tress

Central Subject: A large tree with a dense canopy stands at the center of the composition. Its leaves are painted in vibrant autumn colors: green, yellow, orange, and red.

Details: The collage consists of several shots showing the tree from different angles. Some sections of the photograph feature close-ups of the leaves, highlighting their rich color and shape.

Background: A bright sky is visible in the background, while the lower shots show gray paving stones strewn with fallen yellow, orange, and red leaves, as well as a small patch of green grass.

Overall Impression: The photograph conveys the atmosphere of autumn, focusing on the beauty and variety of colors of the fall foliage.

Todays #BirdofTheDay is the beautiful 'Kestrel'
Hope you all have a wonderful day 🫶🪶

In the picture, a common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) can be seen sitting on a bare branch of a tree. The kestrel is looking to the right of the image. The bird's plumage is reddish-brown with dark spots on its back, and its head is gray. The sky in the background is bright blue.

Museum Display case, from August 2025
The Waistcoats of Sir John Fleming Leicester (1762-1827) are beautiful examples of silk and embroidery with silk buttons. Sir John liked a beautiful waistcoat!

A colour photograph in landscape format. It shows an illuminated display case at a country house in Cheshire. There are five incredible pale silk men's waistcoats with embroidery and silk buttons. They are very small, the owner must have been a slight build.

A far shot of the Looking Glass Falls, surrounded by thick forest and imposing rock cliffs. Difficult to tell from this vantage, but the falls are 60 feet tall.

#WaterfallWednesday
Aros Park Upper Falls, near Tobermory, Isle of Mull, Inner Hebrides, Scotland (September 2025)
Spectacular in full spate.
#arospark #isleofmull #hebrides #scotland #nature #trees #rivers #rocks #geology #photography #eastcoastkin

A waterfall view at Aros Park Upper Falls near Tobermory, Isle of Mull, Inner Hebrides, Scotland on a bright September day.
The Aros Burn in full spate cascades over the crest of the waterfall and down the rock face until it tumbles over many large boulders at the bottom as it makes its way downstream.
In the background, behind and above the falls are pine trees.
The sky is blue with thin white clouds.
