Lake Moraine, Banff, Canada

You were in Banff and didn't stop by to visit me? Harumph lol
Lovely picture!

53rd & 3rd - The Ramones

Ohh Jake I had no idea you lived there! Somehow I always assumed you were in Calgary. Anyway I'm sure I'll make another trip sometime since the Rockies are just so beautiful.

Martin did you go all the way there just for that picture?

Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice



Hubbard Glacier, Alaska

Oh dear me, no. There was this one as well:-

MacArthur Park - Richard Harris



(SerioUsly, it was on my 'to-do' list. And yes, I do know it's not the one in the song. )

Zorba, I have almost the identical picture from when we visited in 2004. When were you in Alaska?

Last week. Fortunately we had good weather throughout the trip.

The Pub with No Beer Slim Dusty

Sweet Leaf - Black Sabbath

Kingdom of Rust - the Doves

"Jar of Hearts" - Christina Perri

This picture was taken specifically for the song. It was edited, too. Took awhile for me to make all the hearts and get them in there.

Flopsy - What a sad looking pier. Where is it?

Zebra - Well worth the effort, it's works perfectly.

It's the West Pier in Brighton & Hove. It was one of the most elegant of the traditional English piers, perhaps even the most elegant. But from the 1970s onwards it suffered a series of disasters - it was damaged by a devastating storm, a terrible fire, then another storm.

Brighton has another pier - former residents like me still call that one the Palace Pier but it has now been renamed as the Brighton Pier, no doubt a sad recognition that the West Pier will never be restored.

However, the photographer in me can't resist the West Pier as it is now - a derelict, burned, rusting hulk that absorbs light and makes the sea sparkle in contrast. Near every dead pier there's a camera waiting to pan out.

It's always a great shame when one of those magnificent structures is allowed to decline like that. We had a huge fire at the closest pier to me - Weston-Super-Mare - a few years ago. Fortunately only the building was lost so the owners were able to replace it. It's not as good as the original I'm told but it has to be better than letting it become another victim.
