Stadhuis, city hall, van Velsen, IJmuiden, Netherlands, holland
Good morning,
Today here are a couple of images of the City Hall of IJmuiden. I liked how this building has a different style to the rest of the Dutch aesthetic in the local area.
Thanks,
Lee
Zuidpier, IJmuiden.
Good morning,
Here are some images which were worth the wait. I have previously posted a grey dull morning in this location. This is a perfect example of why you should revisit the same site as the weather and light make all the difference.
I hope that you enjoyed the early morning drone images.
I would love to see your drone photos.
Thanks

North Pier, IJmuiden at early sunrise, Netherlands
Good morning,
Whilst working out in the Netherlands, I was setting my alarm to get up earlier than when I was due to work to catch the sunrises. I hired a bicycle from the hotel so that I could reach further places.
These images are not what I set out to achieve, but I do enjoy them.
In true landscape style, it is a roll of the dice and down to the weather gods.
Thanks.

Montrose Quay.
Good morning,
Here are a couple of images that were taken early one morning of Montrose Quay.
Who Uses Montrose Port?
As one of the largest Chain and Anchor ports globally and with the world’s largest chain inspection companies, InterMoor and First Marine Solutions, calling it home, Montrose Port is strategically placed to work with supply vessels servicing wind farms, oil rigs and other destinations in the North Sea and far beyond.
They have long been trusted by some of the biggest names in the oil and gas industry as well as the renewables sector, supporting the different stages of their ventures from operations and maintenance to decommissioning.
Thanks,

St Vigeans Church
in Church
Good morning,
Today I’d like to share some photos of St Vigeans Church.
This Church of Scotland parish church serves the parish of the ancient village of St Vigeans on the outskirts of Arbroath, Angus, Scotland. The church was rebuilt in the 12th century but not consecrated until 1242 by David de Bernham, Bishop of St Andrews
These images are another edition to my church project where I am enjoying shooting different churches.
Do you have an ongoing project? I would love to see it.
Send me a message on Instagram.

Blackpool Promenade.
Good morning.
I like to share some images of Blackpool front.
Blackpool’s sea front, with its dazzling lights and timeless charm, has been a beloved destination for generations. Stretching along the Fylde Coast, Blackpool’s sea front is famous for its piers, the iconic Blackpool Tower, and a lively promenade filled with attractions.
Standing tall since 1894, Blackpool Tower is an enduring symbol of the city’s heritage. As the sun sets, the tower lights up, creating a spectacular sight against the evening sky.

Edinburgh Castle
Hello,
I hope that you have had a good week.
I want to share with you an image of the One O’clock gun at Edinburgh Castle.
What is the One o’Clock gun?
The firing of the gun dates back to 1861, when businessman John Hewitt brought the idea to Edinburgh from Paris. It’s now an Edinburgh tradition, but the one o’clock gun originally came into being out of necessity over 150 years ago. It has been 158 years since the first audible indication of the time was made during bad weather at Edinburgh Castle. The citizens of Edinburgh, as well as the ships docked in the ports of Leith and Firth of Forth over two miles away, were able to hear the signal, quickly making it a curious visitor attraction. With an electric cable stretching over 4,000 feet from the rear of the gun to the Royal Observatory on Calton Hill, the original 18-pound gun was operated via a mechanical trigger at precisely 1pm each day apart from Sunday, Good Friday and Christmas Day. The 94-pound artillery weapon was provided by the Royal Artillery. The weapon of choice is now a L118 Light Gun. This particular weapon has been in service approximately 15 years, and is traditionally fired by a volunteer District Gunner from the 105th Regiment Royal Artillery.
Have a good weekend.

Lecropt Kirk Parish, Church of Scotland
Hello,
This is the Lecropt Kirk Parish, Church of Scotland 🏴.
What an Amazing building, and interesting contrast between the old and modern.
It was built in 1825 now with the M9 adjacent.
Bonus random fact for you, the founder of the special air service (SAS) Major David Stirling was from Lecropt.
Have a great weekend

Neptune Energy Aberdeen
Good morning,
Another Aberdeen office. This is one of the first photos taken with my drone. It was a nerve wrecking flight that’s for sure ha!
Some information on the building.
This commercial building was completed in 2015 for energy firm GDF Suez, designed by the award winning Halliday Fraser Munro. The project value was £8 million. This distinctive building in Aberdeen city centre was winner of the BCO award for ‘Best Commercial Workplace’ in 2015. Judges in the British Council for Offices’ (BCO’s) Regional Awards said the 40,000 square feet riverside development showed what can be achieved by a “clear vision that puts the needs of the occupier centre stage”, while at the same time benefiting the wider community.
The building is now occupied by Neptune Energy, who are an independent exploration and production company in the oil and gas industry, who have a regional focus on the North Sea, North Africa and Asia Pacific with a diverse, gas-weighted portfolio and deep industry expertise.
Have a great weekend.
