One Christmas day a couple of years back, I saw one of these on the ceiling and while trying to get a photo at the top of a ladder fell off nearly killing myself. Who says macro photography is not dangerous!
An old shed on a beautiful spot, high above Zermatt. In the background the Dom (4545m), Täschhorn (4491m) and Alphubel (4206m).
Mulholland Point Light and remains of an old dock on Campobello Island, NB.
I am not sure why these old poles attract me so much, but they do, standing between flowers in the foreground and sunset in the background, all lovely and natural. A memento mori of sorts.
I am also not sure which album it belongs to, you see Canada and US in about equal measure. I put it in both.
While exploring Washington State back roads, I came across this abandoned silver mine known as the Old Ruby (Pyrargyrite) Mine. Along with the mill there are several other buildings on the property, maintenance shop, blacksmith shop and forge, office, bunkhouse and powder magazine. The mill is empty now, and so is the powder magazine.
Old Paria Badlands in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, an extremely colorful landscape that served as a film set for westerns several years ago. Unfortunately, the remains of the former Old Pareah Townsite and Old Paria Movie Set are gone (burned down).

Schleibrücke bei Lindaunis in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
Die Lindaunisbrücke ist eine Straßen- und Eisenbahnklappbrücke, die den Meeresarm Schlei an einer ihrer schmalsten Stellen überquert. Die Brücke wurde 1927 in Betrieb genommen und wurde seit dem von Fußgängern, Fahrzeugen und Zügen zur Überquerung der Schlei genutzt. Neben der Brücke entsteht ein Neubau, der die alte Brücke wegen ihrer Reparaturanfälligkeit im Jahre 2025 ersetzen soll. Zur Zeit kann die Brücke nur noch von Fußgängern und Radfahrern genutzt werden.
The Lindaunis Bridge is a road bridge and draw bridge which crosses the Baltic Sea inlet 'Schlei' at one of its narrowest place. The bridge was put into service in 1927 and was used by pedestrians, cars and trains to cross the Schlei. Alongside the bridge a new construction will be completed probably until 2025 to replace the old bridge due to its repair susceptibility. Until then only pedestrians and bicyclists are allowed to use the bridge.
The monastery was founded by St. Patrick in the 5th century and the remnants of the High Crosses and Round Tower are indicative of its importance. The monastery was linked to St Maelruns monastery of Tallaght and adopted the practices of the Ceile De movement. The Vikings raided the monastery in 932 and it was again burned in 1114. It was the threat from the Vikings, which led to the building of the round tower in the 9th/10th century. A town developed around the monastery with buildings of timber and mud which have since been obliterated by wind and weather.The Round Tower at Old Kilcullen is about 10m high and it has a round-headed doorway. This is less than 2m above ground level and about 1.7m high.
Ancient history books such as the Annals of the Four Masters tell of terrible Danish attacks on Kilcullen in 936 and 944 AD. This probably led to the construction of the Round Tower.
The tower is approximately 40 ft high and the top parts suffered a lot of damage in 1798. An account written in 1782 tells of there being four large windows in the upper part of the tower but only the semblance of one now remains. The village which developed around the edge of the monastery continued to exsist until it was distroyed in a battle on 24th May 1798.
Fiding old objects in the lake can make for nice photos when the light is just right. The rest of the day, it looks like old junk

Hope this joke won't be lost on some of my foreign-speaking friends... :)))) Do I dare add a hint??? :)
