Nice Photos

Lovely shot pb. The buildings in Strand looked lovely today in the sunshine. Followed by a stroll in the calm of Temple Chambers…feels like spring :slightly_smiling_face:

Spring is in the air but I fear winter hasn’t finished yet. It’s still only mid February but we are loving the sunshine :blush:

Just giving passengers a nice view of The Shard as it circles into its landing approach…

It is forever busy given the flight path into Heathrow and London City Airport just beyond Canary Wharf in the background.

Nah ! it’s simply turning to intercept the one ahead that is below and to its right, and below and to the left of the moon.

And BASE jumping…

It’s a Russian dive bomber, but it’s okay he’s only practising.

Hi Fabio1, I too have an interest in organs. The photo’s are the two sided pipe casement in Wells Cathedral, Wells is in Somerset UK. The first photo is the view from the cathedral entrance, the second photo is looking towards the entrance from the high alter end.
The original organ dates back to 1857 but includes some pipes from 1786.
The instrument was enlarged in 1910 & then rebuilt including the new casement you see in the photo during 1973/4. It now consists of 67 stops – five divisions spread across four manuals.

Hi Mike-B,
that’s a pure beauty and your reply is very interesting,thank you, but let me specify: I meant to say that I like music in general.I am not an expert in organs though I like them.Ciao

I realised, or at least guessed, that to be the case Fabio. Its the same with me, my interest is music in general. But I cannot resist the interest in church organ engineering & my perceived beauty of some of them.
Buon ascolto, Ciao

We spent the weekend in wonderful Montreuil-sur-Mer which I highly recommend , it’s lovely. Taking the D roads back to Calais you pass by Étaples Military cemetery , it’s hard to describe a cemetery as beautiful but it is a wonderful monument to brave souls and terrible loss . This picture is the entrance yesterday .
