A look back to the Fallen Moon ,in Bridgwater Docks i stood behind a lady taking a shot on her phone and it felt like an opportunity for some unusual foreground interest! The Fallen Moon is a creation by artist Luke Jerram, Created from NASA data, the sculpture is a giant 10m diameter replica of the Moon, presented on water. The artwork is 350,000 times smaller than the real Moon with each centimetre of the internally lit sculpture describing 3.5 km of the Moon’s surface. The installation is a fusion of lunar imagery, moonlight and surround sound composition created by BAFTA award winning composer Dan Jones. Large view recommended and thanks for the visit!

Totney Drove, A Rhyne and a distant "Isle of Avalon" topped by Glastonbury Tor, from my beloved Somerset Levels, A "drove" on the Somerset Levels is a historic, unpaved or single-track rural trackway originally used for moving livestock. Today, they serve as quiet, scenic country lanes flanked by traditional ditches (rhynes) and are great for peaceful walking, cycling, and wildlife viewing across the moors, Driving or cycling a drove road offers a quintessential Somerset Levels experience, but requires some specific local knowledge, No bench from me this week routine hospital visits could take some time . will catch up on my return, A good week to all,,,,,,,,,, Large view recommended,,,,,,

Gentle waves reach the shore and provide a relaxing coastal view of the Sound of Jura, from Port nan Clachan, Kintyre, Cool water for a hot day! In 16.9 format therefore a large view should be better,

Back to one of our local harbours for this weeks wall, a low tide capture of the inner harbour which is now a 150 berth Marina at Watchet on Somerset’s, Bristol Channel Coast, The high walls have to cope with the second highest tidal range in the world, often exceeding 12 to 14 metres (approx. 40 to 50 feet) during spring tides. This extreme fluctuation is caused by the funnelling shape of the estuary and resonant amplification of the Atlantic tide, HWW to all!

Unable to upload a HWW image,IP not playing! This is the Calanais Standing Stones on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides and the most famous of several related stone settings in the Calanais area (including Calanais II, III, and others), forming part of a broader prehistoric ritual landscape. Often called the "Stonehenge of the North," the site features a distinctive cross-shaped arrangement of standing stones made from ancient Lewisian gneiss (some of the oldest exposed rocks on Earth). The main monument (Calanais I) includes:A central stone circle with 13 stones surrounding a tall central monolith (about 4.8–5 meters high). An avenue of stones extending northward (roughly 83 meters long, formed by two parallel-ish rows that fan out slightly). Rows of stones extending east, west, and south from the circle, creating the cruciform (cross-like) pattern The stones were erected around 2900–2600 BC during the Neolithic period—predating the main phases of Stonehenge by several centuries (roughly 500 years earlier than its famous sarsen circle). The central stone circle is shown in the image,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, It really does need a large view for the full effect !

A 16.9 image from across the harbour at Tarbert, Loch Fyne. It's a peaceful, scenic spot — less crowded than some other Scottish coastal towns — ideal for relaxing, boating, exploring Argyll's scenery, or as a base for whisky trails and island hopping. Often described as one of Scotland's most attractive wee harbours! Also known as the gateway to Kintyre! HWW ! and a large view recommended!

Section of the harbour at Crail, Often described as one of the most photographed harbours in Scotland (and arguably one of the prettiest in the UK), it features a small, sheltered basin enclosed by sturdy red sandstone walls, with traditional whitewashed cottages, stepped gables, and colourful fishing boats clustered around it. HWW, to all!

Very basic benches outside of the ice cream shop and firewood left over from the winter plus a glimpse of the Castle Walk through the mist! This is King Street, in the very attractive fishing village of Crail in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland, HBM and a good week to all!

The site has been fortified since ancient times due to its strategic position guarding the lowest crossing point of the River Forth, which historically separated the Lowlands from the Highlands. The castle dates back to at least the early 12th century, with most of the present buildings constructed between the late 15th and early 17th centuries under the Stewart (Stuart) monarchs.It played a pivotal role in Scotland's Wars of Independence:It changed hands multiple times between Scots and English forces. In 1304, it was the last major Scottish stronghold held by the English. Nearby battles include William Wallace's victory at Stirling Bridge (1297) and Robert the Bruce's triumph at Bannockburn (1314), both fought for control of the castle.

Another view from the beautiful Loch Katrine, One of the many lochs in the Loch Lomond and the Trossochs national park. A backdrop that offers an alternative view of Ben Venue! , The loch is 8 miles (13 km) long, and one mile wide at its broadest point, with a surface area of 3059 acres (13.26 km2 ). The loch also supplies water to the city of Glasgow! HFF and a great weekend to all!
