This is a panorama of Dunedin NZ

For some reason these didn't work too well, but when the images come up click on them again to enlarge.

WOW your so lucky to live near such a lovely looking beach

A view from the "Michel" showing a part of the Harbour: Hamburger Hafen

Our City park: Stadtpark

The Alster: Binnenalster

A bit old, but an overview of the terminals where our vessels call (the right one, with the red and white striped funnel; the other one is a vessel of our grand alliance partner):
Container Terminal Altenwerder (CTA)

I'm loving the matisse on the side of those buildings
And that city forest park place looks cool too
And that containement area in the last one looks like lego



Ha haaa, was out taking Nugget for a walk the other day and took a few pics of Parys mountain an ancient copper mine in Amlwch on Anglesey. I LOVE going up there and climbing around places that i shouldnt ...Its an incredible atmousphere, you feel like your on a different planet, and everyehere you look there are different colours of rock...its superb


A different planet

The many different shades of rock....






View towards the mainland (20 miles away)

Fantastic Pics everyone. I really enjoyed the tour. Makes my life seem so mundane. By the way JohnWho, I did a painting from your photo, my hubby loves it,he says he can see it in the dark as well as the daytime so now he can enjoy my art 24/7 nn I love your pics of your rocky place, the colors are wonderful, I'd love to be there & get some pics. that I could have here at home to maybe do a painting or 2 from--u ever notice the different things u can see in the rocks depending on the angle & color of where u are viewing from?? YouHighness,thank you so much for the pics. from Germany, I've friends in Berlin & have been over twice, I really miss it so. I love it over there & would move there in a heartbeat were it possible. It is a beautiful & diverse country. Darthy your pic of the Wisteria is beautiful!! Makes my mother-in-laws plant look down right puny!!
Maybe I can come up with something to contribute before long, although dumb ole me may need a little help on the where fors & how to's of sending so they get to the right place!!
Later all, thanks for the show---Iodine

Each to their own Iodine.

I shudder to think what would happen if I ever ventured to pick up an artist's brush. LOL

This is the most notable feature near where I live:

York Minster

Nothing that good around here, I'd happily trade the minster for one of those nice beaches that people have been showing.

Than you are more or less in the same biz as I am Johannes... I work for a NVOCC

Cool, which one? For those that dont know what it means: NVOCC = Non vessel operating common carrier ;)

This is Kirk in the Hills, a beautiful old church in Franklin, MI.





Also in Franklin is an old fashioned cider mill. You can't actually see the mill in this shot, but this is the creek it sits on that actually powers the mill's water wheel.






Not far from it is the Cranbrook school grounds.
