I had every intention of getting back to photograph these lovely alleys of trees a bit later as the color of the leaves advanced further. Then we had weeks of rain that detracted from trying to take photos along with knocking off all the leaves. Oh, well – next year.
Sculpture in that previously mentioned “Parc Royal” of Brussels. Sits right next to the actual royal palace, but I didn’t manage to get over there for a shot of it. Sorry…next time?
Look closely and you’ll see these two photos were taken in the same park, looking in different directions: above, looking back at KL’s iconic Petronas Towers; below, looking at the Christmas Tree from behind the towers, looking out at the park. (Tip: look in the water.)
As noted a few posts ago, I’ve been traveling again for work, thus a new photo of Penang Hill (of which we showed you lots and lots in posts from my last visit) as seen, this time, from the air as we approached our landing at Penang Int’l Airport on Tuesday evening two weeks ago, already. This photo taken, as it happens, more or less precisely three weeks after the photo in yesterday’s post, of different mountains on a different island off a different continent. And you wonder why my head gets mixed up sometimes…
So last week I flew off for some visits to our project locations again, changing planes in Doha. This meant we flew over some parts of Iraq I’ve come to know a bit, and I’m reasonably confident that the city you see here by night is Erbil, though the in-flight map didn’t identify enough cities to confirm this hypothesis.
Looking mostly north, I think, from the northwestern side of Inishmore, which may mean that some of those mountains are in Connemara National Park, of which we’ve shown you a taste in a prior post and have much more to share in future posts 🙂
