A colorful photograph taken at dusk in a harbor filled with boats and yachts, depicting their sails and masts. In the distance is a hill with lights on top of it while various other vessels dot the water surface which reflects some light possibly from a nearby source or city lights as well. The photo has an old look to it indicating its age could be around 1950s based on information provided in reference link.

One more batch of striking photos of the temples Nanzenji (南禅寺) and Eikandō (永観堂) along the Eastern Mountain Range of Kyōto or the Path of Philosophy (哲学の道).

The first batch, including climbing up the huge gate of Nanzenji, is at https://hcommons.social/@SteveMcCarty/115706568145190275

It hasn't been reported in the Japanese language news, but I heard sirens and ducked into the back of Nanzenji to walk along a little-known path along the mountainside by the old canal that runs from Lake Biwa to provide fresh water to Kyōto. But the rescue trucks went to the exact same place, and I saw rescue crew looking into the canal, and men going up with at least one stretcher. I didn't stick around, though, and I left, past gawking East Asian tourists. What did they want to see? I just wanted a contemplative walk, but it was an odd coincidence.

three wooden boats with people on them in a body of water. the boat on the right has two women and one man sitting at it, while the middle ship has three men standing up working to adjust sail. there are more ships off into distance but these ones appear closer as they take center stage within this photo.

I hear that hat the ""original" movie is going to be re-released for the 50th anniversary, but who knows what version they're considering "original" these days...

Leftover Star Wars Sets
Buildings from the fictional planet of Tatooine still litter the Tunisian desert, 50 years after the first filming began.

One of my favorite movies, too!

From the Atlas Obscura e-newlsetter:

You'll Shoot Your Eye Out
Place of the Day: Photo of the housed used as the location of the film A Christmas Story. It's two story, yellow clad siding with green window trim, a generous front porch with steps, and out front a black iron fence. The scene is winder and the bushes in front of the fence by the sidewalk are leafless. Snow is on the ground.

"There are maybe two dozen films I’ve seen as often as “A Christmas Story,” and “Ghostbusters” is one of them. So I have already visited that movie’s firehouse location in TriBeCa. I’d definitely take a detour in London to see this retro-futuristic spot from “A Clockwork Orange.” It’s kind of incredible that some original sets from the 1977 “Star Wars” are intact in Tunisia. And the real heads will know the significance of this sweeping staircase in Odessa, the setting for one of the most influential scenes in early cinema history."

Last of the changing leaves, well into December, at the temples Nanzenji (南禅寺) and Eikandō (永観堂) along the Path of Philosophy (哲学の道). I climbed up the huge gate of Nanzenji to get a panoramic view.

This is only a small sampling, so I can show more interesting scenes. See the captions for more details.

Абяцаны працяг пра склеп. Ён двухпакаёвы. Сучасны гаспадар пісаў, што тэмпература ў ім аднолькавая ўзімку і ўлетку. Люблю такія пабудовы. А вы?

The promised continuation about the cellar. There are two rooms in it. The current owner wrote that the temperature in it is the same in winter and summer. I love such places. And you?

Вёска Лесіна, Талачынскі раён. Лістапад 2025.
На месцы былой сядзібы Ренгартэраў зараз знаходзіцца прыватны двор, але гаспадар сабраў інфармацыю і надрукаваў для турыстаў. Машыну лепей пакінуць каля крыжа і пайсці глядзець былы двор. Але ж не праз прыватную тэрыторыю. Там ёсць дзе абыйсці. Там на ўскраіне вёскі ёсць могілкі з капліцай. Але я туды не хадзіў. Не было часу. Паглядзеў на руіны, захапіўся склепам і паехаў дадому. Для чаго ікона высока на дрэве - для мяне загадка. Калі прыедзеце туды, хутчэй за ўсё той гаспадар вас сустрэне. Тады спытайце ў яго.
Чакайце працяг...

Lesina Village, Tolochyn District. November 2025.
On the site of the former Rengarter estate there is a private yard now, but the owner has collected information and printed it for tourists. It is better to leave the car near the cross and go for sightseeing the former yard. But not through private territory. There is a cemetery with a chapel on the outskirts of the village. But I did not go there. I had no time. I looked at the ruins, admired the crypt and went home. Why the icon is high on a tree is a mystery to me. You can ask the owner, if you come there.
