Upper floor of the Chapel, Vesailles Palace Paris
Lower floor of the chapel , Versailles Palace, Paris
Shakespers Birth Place. Stratford Uopn Avon.
they charge 14 pounds to get in which is a bit much since he was only born there and lived else where. Apparently he had a house in Straford but the onwnere pulled it down as he was fed up with the vistors ( much later of course)

Another river view
One of the bridgs across the Seine. This river must have the best city views in the world.
Too many tourists though and this was not the summer!

Notre Dame view from the river seine. Since the Eiffel tower queue was too long we took the crusie

Watching life go bye for the madness of Humanity

Would love a better zoom for the camera. Shot in Warrickshire ( Autumn).
I believe the owl is not that old yet, but then I am no expert!

Major traffic in Chipping Camden, Cotswolds, England

A busy day for traffic in Chipping Camden!
A typical village in the Cotswolds, notice the standard stone used for the buildings.
Most villages in this area seem to use the same stone

Mosque at Lakemba NSW Australia

Lakemba Mosque. Very beautiful and a pleasure to visit it.
Photgraph taken with a wide angle lens so there is a bit of fish eye bend to the pillars.

Versailles Palace, France

Huge crowds fro a weekday but what a place!. What I like is they do not restrict photgraphy inside the building whereas elsewhere in the UK and germany they do.
I do not think there will ever be a place like this again

BlenHeim Palace


BlenHeim Palace. Birth place of Winston Churchill

Another Eiffel Tower from a different view

A nicer view I think!. Still a fantastic building since it was built in the late 1800's and was not expected to last more than 20 years.

Eiffel Tower, Paris

The Eiffel Tower is magnificent. The queues to go up are not though, they are just to big to bother with. I believe there is a time of day when they are not so long but decided to make use of the time better and do a cruise on the Seine.

Houses of parliament

Recent trip to the UK. Far to busy with people crammed every where on the river Thames bridge. It was difficult to take the required photograph with so many people around and this was a weekday in Autumn!. It is a shame one cannot visiti inside the houses but I guess security is an issue these days.
