The Derelict Cottages on Carnane Hill
High above Douglas the silhouette of these derelict cottages on Carnane Hill can be seen from far and wide around the surrounding areas of Douglas.

The Great Union Camera Obscura – Douglas Head
The Great Union Camera Obscura is one of only four remaining camera obscuras in the British Isles. Unlike other structures, which were built for astronomical purposes, the Isle of Man’s camera obscura which nestles into the hillside on Douglas Head was built in the 1890s purely as an attraction for the flourishing Manx tourist industry. Here is a small article that I added to this website about the Camera Obscura in May 2005 Click Here The image was captured on my Nikon D80 DSLR with a Nikon 18-70 F3.5/5.6 G AFS DX lens, cropped and resized in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
