A lovely little walk in Knockbarron Wood. I'm quite fond of what the locals call the middle of nowhere.

From my day trip last week to #Toledo #Spain. What can I say - I'm a sucker for a highly defensible city (with escalators)

I call these the Spanish-Adjacent Steps as they're right around the corner and lead to the same place (Piazza della Trinità dei Monti). #photography #rome

📍Roma, Italia
A historic stone staircase ascends between two aged buildings under a partly cloudy sky. One side features an ivy-draped brick wall with vintage lanterns, while the other shows a classical yellow façade with shuttered windows. The composition captures old-world European charm, depth, and architectural contrast in warm, earthy tones.

The view of #Acropolis from Lycabettus Hill at dusk. Saharan sand was particularly heavy on this day in March, which made it hard to see where the Gulf ended and the sky began. Or, maybe my vision was just blurred from climbing ~60 flights of stairs. Either, or, really. #photography #Athens #Greece
A stunning aerial view of Athens at dusk, featuring the Acropolis illuminated against a sprawling urban landscape. The golden hour sky casts warm hues over the city, blending seamlessly into the Aegean Sea in the distance. The Parthenon stands prominently, symbolizing ancient Greek heritage amid modern architecture.

I really enjoyed walking around here.

📍National Gardens, Athens, Greece #photography
A monochrome photograph captures a classical stone angel statue seated gracefully on a manicured hedge in a formal garden. The angel’s wings are delicately sculpted and its posture evokes serenity and introspection. The blurred background of tall trees and hedgerows enhances the statue’s prominence and timeless, contemplative mood.

Packing up for the next leg of our long journey today. #Athens has been a blast!

This image is of a happy little trail somewhere south of Temple of Olympian Zeus. #photography #HitTheRoad
A serene, narrow dirt trail winds through a lush landscape of wildflowers and dense greenery. Yellow flowers carpet the scene, contrasting with the darker, leafless tree branches in the background. The soft light and natural surroundings create a peaceful and inviting atmosphere, ideal for nature walks or quiet exploration.

These bitter oranges in #Athens remind me of basketball in March... Madness! #photography

Pardon my pandering and #WPS 🐗
This photograph captures an orange tree laden with ripe fruit in a lush garden. The branches, some bare and others with leaves, contrast against a blurred background featuring greenery and a classical-style building. The vibrant oranges stand out against the soft natural tones, evoking a warm, Mediterranean atmosphere. Sunlight filters through the foliage, adding depth and texture.

For this #TowerTuesday, I feel like I'm in Legend of Zelda. Please enjoy, the Tower of the Winds.

This is pretty much the only Greek structure in the Roman Agora and looks unique amongst the other structures of the site. #photography

Out scouting for some views in #Athens... Just a few steps and stairs away. I miss my younger knees right now, but I'll miss them even more when I come back with gear later.

A rainy day on the outskirts of #Rome yielded some of my favorite images from February.

The ruins of Parco degli Acquedotti #photography
This photograph captures an ancient stone ruin rising from a field of overgrown grass, with dark, cloudy skies looming overhead. The weathered structure, partially covered in ivy, shows the passage of time, and birds are seen flying near the top, adding a sense of movement to the scene. The dramatic sky enhances the mood of isolation and history.

Sitting in a bar in Athens and @npr.org's #TinyDesk is streaming. Don't tell me our taxpayer investment in NPR has no value; it's an export of our culture.

Soft power is a real thing.

Please enjoy Mt. #Vesuvius as framed by the ruins of #Pompei. #photography

I'm sure this could be an analogy for something, but there are just too many options to pick just one...
This image shows a view of ancient ruins framed by two large, weathered stone columns, with a distant mountain visible under a clear blue sky. The scene depicts the remains of Pompeii, with Mount Vesuvius in the background. The composition captures the intersection of history and natural beauty, framing the destroyer with the ruins of the destroyed.

Captured near #TreviFountain #Rome #Italy #Photography
This photograph captures a moment on the streets of Rome, Italy featuring a religious shrine with two angel statues flanking a golden sunburst around an image.

The scene reflects a contrast between rich and poor, local and tourist, and tradition vs new technology.

Sometimes, it's better to follow than to lead.

(This is a hiking post, not a political one, btw) #photography
The image shows a close-up of a spider resting in the center of a web, featuring intricate silk patterns. The spider's legs are visible, and the web structure appears dense and symmetrical. The background is blurred with natural green and brown hues, drawing focus to the detailed web and the spider itself. The lighting emphasizes the delicate texture of the web strands.

It's Monday.

#inauguration #photography #StoryPic
This image depicts a quiet, empty street lined with trees and buildings, leading to a historic clock tower. The architecture is classic and evokes a small-town or suburban setting, with an American flag visible on the right side. The overcast sky and calm atmosphere give the scene a still mood. The image text reads: The streets were mostly empty that day. I watched the flag tangle round itself in the wind. Some folks had a faint memory of what the first Tuesday in November meant; most didn't know or couldn't be bothered to care. Our lives were in service to The Providers, and the frivolities of remembrance weren't within our grasp.
