HWW Baden-Baden Baden-Württemberg Germany 4th August 2026

Well it's a ceiling and 3 walls really!

We came across the closed railway station in Baden-Baden (although my wife didn't believe me it wasn't on purpose) which we first took for an Opera House because La Boheme was advertised on the frontage. Certainly the interior was opera-house in splendour but the sign above the ticket booth reads "Fahrkarten".

HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.

Der Kleine Feuerfalter - The Small Copper

In diesem Sommer sah ich ziemlich häufig den Kleinen Feuerfalter (Lycaena phlaeas). Hier im Bild an einem Blütenstand vom wilden Majoran (Origano vulgare) Nektar saugend. Das Männchen verteidigt sein Territorium gegen andere Männchen und verjagt auch deutlich größere Falter wie zum Beispiel das Tagpfauenauge. Diese Falterart kommt in Deutschland noch relativ häufig vor.

This summer I saw the Small Copper (Lycaena phlaeas) quite often. In the photo it is nectaring on an inflorescence of wild marjoram (Origanum vulgare). The male defends its territory against other males and even chases away much larger butterflies, such as the Peacock butterfly. This species is still relatively common in Germany.

HBM Stone Greenhithe Kent 19th August 2026

Park Lane, a bench and Ihe Waterstone Park Obelisk.

The monument celebrates a son of Greenhithe, Sir Erasmus Wilson (1809 - 1894), a renowned Dermatologist & philanthropist. It is described thus :-

"The 15ft sculpture erected in 2007 has been meticulously made from over 13,000 individual pieces of recycled glass taken from the river Thames foreshore at Greenhithe. The glass comes from the remains of old factories and wharves that at one time lined the river. The length of time the glass has been in the river results in each piece of glass possessing a unique translucence. At night the glass sculpture is lit by Low Energy Diodes".

HBM to everyone. Have a great start to the new week.

World Photography Day 19th August 2026

Returning back home after 2 weeks vacation in Germany I made a short detour to capture this image of Stone Castle in Greenhithe Kent, England. The 3 storey square tower of the building on the left is medieval, probably late 12th century while the rest of the building dates from 1825.

I'm submitting this photo for World Photography Day because it represents an important event in my life; 56 years ago (almost to the day) I began working here in my first job after graduating from University. Significantly it also records my first visit to Stone Castle for almost 56 years because the Geology Department of Blue Circle & I relocated to Leicestershire 3 weeks after starting here. It also represents the passage of those years because it is clear that the building and gardens are now derelict!

As a life-long railway enthusiast & photographer I admire the iconic British lensman Colin Gifford who pioneered the "New Approach" to railway photography in the 1960s during the declining years of UK steam. American photographer O. Winston Link is also high on my list of favourites.
