The Derelict Cottages on Carnane Hill

Posted on February 6, 2013February 7, 2023 by Peter Killey

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. Maybe someone can tell us a bit more about their history?? The image was captured on my Nikon S8200 Camera resized and cropped in Adobe Photoshop CS6.

The Great Union Camera Obscura – Douglas Head

Posted on July 16, 2012July 16, 2012 by Peter Killey

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.
