The Realm of the Phantoma...Throughout my gallery, I have always made different concoctions referring to the fictional city of Artopolis...I'd thought I'd give the city itself an illustration this time...Thanks for stopping by...
I remember as a boy the tramp steamers and coal colliers berthing at the dock..Now all freight is handled downriver at North shields and Tyne dock south shields..Thanks R

Thank you John for your kind comments on my first upload for a while. "The Loss os Verena is Heavens Gain". I felt I needed to do something as I was shocked at the news of her parting as we all were. Life is so cruel at times.

Hi John and thank you for your kind comments on Horsechestnut in May. When you say you are amazed the photo's you get when you turn your camera skyward, so do you mean when you have fallen over again?? ha ha Or is it when you do turn it skyward, that is when you fall over something!!! ???? Either way, you are producing some fantastic images of late. Keep them coming!

Thank you John.Your comments are appreciated..I'm not entirely happy with the colour rendition or sharpness of them..I suspect it's the UV filter i have on the lens..I don't normally use filters,The last time i did i got the same effect.They will be coming off when i'm out and about again..R.

Thanks Shad for comments on Abandoned. I was trying not to sound like I was whining. I am just a little tired and think I need to take a break. Hopefully it will recharge me much like you have been recharged.
I have too many friends here to disappear intentionally.

Thanks for the comments on my rose photo John. "Ouch" is a good word for describing the emotion of something so beautiful it hurts. I am honored and humbled by that use. Thank you my friend.

Midnight Rendezvous
Save that from yonder ivy-mantled tower
The moping owl does to the moon complain
Of such as, wandering near her secret bower,
Molest her ancient solitary reign.
Beneath those rugged elms, that yew-tree's shade,
Where heaves the turf in many a mouldering heap,
Each in his narrow cell for ever laid,
The rude Forefathers of the hamlet sleep....
Count Biffo....SSSSSssss
