The view over Westminster from the London Eye, with Battersea Power Station making an appearance on the horizon.
We ventured out to the Lilydale Memorial Park today as there was an ANZAC Day display of around 2,200 handcrafted poppies on the front lawn. They looked amazing in the dew on a misty but sunny morning.
One of the joys of an evening dogwalk, the chance of sunbeams! This is a great spot on the Carrum to Warburton Trail for sunsets and cloudy skies.
I’m loving the early summer evenings. Cool evenings before the killer heat of late summer and the longer days or daylight savings.
The Iron Bridge the first cast iron bridge of it’s kind, and one of the first iron bridges. The main span is 100 feet and 6 inches. The inscription reads: “This bridge was cast at Coalbrook-Dale and erected in the year MDCCLXXIX”.
Warwick‘s Old Castle Bridge over the River Avon seen from the Waterwheel.
Looking down on the Engine House, Mill and Weir on the River Avon. Behind this is the ruined Old Castle Bridge, and in the background the replacement Castle Bridge opened in 1793.
Looking down from Warwick Castle and over the River Avon, we can see the trebuchet in the castle grounds. This 2005 built replica is one of the largest siege engines in the world. This monster machine needs a team of eight people to load and fire it. Two people run in each wheel to wind the massive arm back down.
Another Warwick Castle panorama with a missing bit. This time it is the Watergate Tower and the Castle Mound on a gloriously sunny day.
A bit of a dodgy panorama of Warwick Castle. I obviously didn’t make sure that I had enough coverage of the tree and sky on the left.
