watercolors 11×15” (Winsor & Newton Cotman and Loew-Cornell Metallics on Strathmore CP 300 series paper) Walt Whitman was a Revolutionary, so is part of my Revolutionaries Series. This portrait is inspired by parts of his book, Leaves of Grass. leaves of grass: / verse 41; / I am not an earth, nor an adjunct of an earth / I am the mate and companion of people, all just as / immortal and fathomless as myself; / They do not know how immortal, but I know. Messenger Leaves: / Walt Whitman’s Caution. / To The States, or any one of them, or any city of / The States, Resist much, obey little. / Once unquestioning obedience, once fully enslaved, / Once fully enslaved, no nation, state, city, of this / earth, ever afterward resumes its liberty. To A President. / All you are doing and saying is to America dangled / mirages, / You have not learned of Nature – of the politics of / Nature, you have not learned the great ampli- / tude, rectitude, impartiality, / You have not seen that only such as they are for / These States, / And that what is less than they, must sooner or later / lift off from These States. To You. / Stranger! if you, passing, meet me, and desire to / speak to me, why should you not speak to me? / And why should I not speak to you?

This was a shot I was lucky to get this morning at 6:16, this is what the sun looked like through the thick smoke….....this is the first time I have seen it like this…..I have been shooting every day for 30 days now (the smokey shots) and I have not seen this yet….........this is right out of the camera; I hope you all enjoy this one. The words I added from Walter Russell’s The Divine Iliad seem to suit this one well.

There is not much to this….(at least not on the surface) just a quick unedited shot of the sunset on 08 08 08 at 7:35 …..and a little wisdom from a wise and loving soul….. / __ / some words of Walter Russell from The Secret of Light, 1947: Look ye therefore, forever upward into the High-Heavens of inspiration, where glory awaits the fearless, all-knowing seekers of Beauty in the purity of the Universal Light. To him whose eyes are in the High-Heavens, the Light will forever come, and he will be forever transformed as he finds it. / / ___ / All The Materials Contained May Not Be Reproduced, Copied, Edited, Published, Transmitted Or Uploaded In Any Way Without My Permission.

A warm August day in East Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh, Scotland. Princes Street Gardens at the heart of Edinburgh’s City Centre were once a lake called Nor’ Loch. The Loch, which had been the trash dump of Edinburgh for centuries was drained in order to improve access from the New Town to the Old Town. Later, the Nor’ Loch was transformed into the beautiful Princes Street Gardens we see today. On the left, you can see some of the buildings on Princes street. In the middle of the shot you can see the Scott Monument. This monument to Sir Walter Scott is located on Princes Street. A little further to the right you can see the Balmoral hotel. The hotel is located in the very heart of the city at 1 Princes Street, the main shopping area overlooking Edinburgh Castle. The Balmoral is a landmark in its own right, its clock tower can be seen from all around. Given that the hotel is adjacent to the station, the clock is always set two minutes fast to ensure that people don’t miss their trains. Far right, you can just see the start of North Bridge. Lying at the East end of Princes Street, North Bridge was the catalyst which finally brought about a northwards expansion of the city with the New Town. It provided a link from the Old Town to the south. The original bridge was replaced by another built of steel girders by Sir William Arrol in 1895. This is now subject to the highest levels of protection as a structure of historical and architectural interest. Three bracketed JPGs converted to HDR in Photomatix. Camera: Canon EOS 450D BEST VIEWED LARGER Related shots can be found at: Edinburgh and Lowland Scotland or you can look at all my HDR shots. Sold a card on 4th Sep 08 /

The iconic view of The Borders. Scott’s View near Beamersyde. This was a favourite view of the author Walter Scott. Easy seen why in this early autumn view. The hills are The Eildons, the River is the Tweed and the field in the middle foreground is Old Melrose, the site of the original abbey before it was moved some 3 miles west (the original site being too constrained). There was an iron age settlement on top of the nearest Eildon. The Romans arrived and the locals worked with them rather than fight. A signal station was built on top and they called it Tri Montium. This was an extremely important area for the northern sector of the Roman Empire. Legend has it that The Eildons were formed when the wizard Michael Scot broke them into 3 from a single hill. The hills are also said to be the resting place for King Arthur who was laid to rest there after the battle of the vale of woes. He will rise again when the nation needs him again….so the legend says. Quite which nation I am not sure. On the northern slopes is the spot where Thomas the Rhymer fell asleep and was led by the fairy queen into her realm for 20 years. Rip van Winkle came after True Tamas. So, altogether a magical place. See also Eildons, south Featured in the “Mornings & Evenings—Sunbeams & Storms” group. .

Captured on Princess Stree in the darkness of the dawn light. I just love light-trails from vehicles in these kinds of pictures. I had to stand in the middle of the road with traffic flowing past in the early hours to get this shot, but I think it was worth the danger;) I was born in Edinburgh Scotland, and was always amazed as a child at the crowds of people along Princess Street. It always seemed to be teeming with life. Today Princess Street is being ruined by the local council’s traffic schemes and most of the high class shops have been replaced by tourist shops selling garbage. IMHO:-) One day it will spring back into life again, I’m sure. / Captured with Nikon D700 and 24-120mm: On a tripod with a small aperture and daylight WB setting, ISO 100. Long exposure.

Edinburgh Capital City of Scotland / Although I come from Edinburgh, I’d never ventured to the top of the Scott Monument before, what a view. Don’t know why I’ve never climbed it before. Captured on Nikon D700 with 50mm Prime f/1.4. This is the view from the top of the Walter Scott Monument on Princess Street. In the picture: Foreground Scotland’s National Art Gallery, leading to Princess Street Gardens, Princess Street on the right (notice them digging it all up to lay new tram lines), Edinburgh Castle to the right and St Mary’s Cathedral with three spires in the far distance. On a clear day from the top of the Scott Monument you can see for miles. / /

At the East end of Princes Street, New Town, Edinburgh, Scotland you will find the Scott Monument, the gothic spire which is the monument to Sir Walter Scott (on the left in the shot). Built during 1836-46. The architect was George Meikle Kemp (1795-1844), a joiner who entered the competition under a pseudonym to avoid prejudice; the joiner/architect sadly fell into the Union Canal in the fog and drowned before the work was completed. A little further along Princes Street is the Balmoral Hotel (on the right in the shot). Originally opened in 1902 it was designed by architect W. Hamilton Beattie and was known as the North British Hotel, a traditional railway hotel built for the North British Railway adjacent to their Waverley Station. It kept the same name until the late 1980s when it was renamed the Balmoral Hotel after refurbishment, despite being located over 100 miles south of Balmoral Castle. For travellers arriving by train, the hotel provided comfortable and elegant lodgings, before they continued their journeys. The building’s architecture is Victorian, influenced by the traditional Scottish baronial style. The hotel is located in the very heart of the city at 1 Princes Street, the main shopping area overlooking Edinburgh Castle. The Balmoral is a landmark in its own right, its clock tower can be seen from all around. Given that the hotel is adjacent to the station, the clock is always set two minutes fast to ensure that people don’t miss their trains. In February 2007 it was confirmed that author J.K. Rowling finished the last book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows at this hotel. Rowling left a signed statement written on a marble bust of Hermes in her room saying; “JK Rowling finished writing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in this room (552) on 11th Jan 2007”. The Scott Monument is an Historic Scotland Category A Listed Building (HB Number 27829). The Balmoral Hotel is an Historic Scotland Category B Listed Building (HB Number 30315).
