Procida is the smallest island of the Gulf of Naples; it is rich in attractions and archaeology. From the ground floor of Napoli Centro train station, you can take the metro to station Pozzuoli then get off and take the ferry at the port of Pozzuoli. The architecture of Procida has a Greek origin. In fact, the history of Procida is concentrated first of all on the medieval village “Terra Murata” and on “Corricella”, the fishing settlement. The island has served as the set for numerous films, such as The “Postman”, and some scenes in “The Talented Mr. Ripley” were shot on Corricella. The landmarks of Procida reflect typical Mediterranean pastel colours. Procida offers simply cooking and at least 10 excellent restaurants with plain cooking based on fresh fish. This simple style never fails, thanks to the 20 local fishing boats. The specialties of the cooking are: stewed rabbit (which goes back to the Borbonen who came on Procida to hunt the wild rabbit) and spaghetti with sea-urchin. Procida has 6 beaches with crystal-clear waters. Spent some relaxing days on this wonderful island. Experience the real Italy, lovely people, great views, great sand and great food.
Procida is an island of sailors and fishermen, Procida simplicity is well summed up by the combination of it's excellent fish, outstanding lemons and pleasant white wine. A working fishing village Corricella with a restaurant dock area. One gorgeous port that looks like time has stood still which only adds to it's charm. Traditional fisherman working hard for little money. In the morning they leave with their private little fishing boats. Each fishermen knows how to throw the giacchio, a special and traditional fishing net. Waiting for fish. At the end of the fishing day they bring the fish home. The local fishermen on the island know all the tricks of the trade and have learned how to use this skill over the years. The fisherman displays his caught fish on the pier. You can immediately buy fresh fish including: Atlantic Herring, Seabream, Pandora, Calamaro, Ombrina and Octopus.
Procida is het kleinste eiland van de Golf van Napels; het is rijk aan attracties en archeologie. Vanaf de begane grond van treinstation Napoli Centro kunt u de metro naar station Pozzuoli nemen, uitstappen en de veerboot nemen in de haven van Pozzuoli. De architectuur van Procida heeft een Griekse oorsprong. In feite is de geschiedenis van Procida allereerst geconcentreerd op het middeleeuwse dorp "Terra Murata" en op "Corricella", de vissersnederzetting. Het eiland heeft gediend als decor voor tal van films, zoals The "Postman", en sommige scènes in "The Talented Mr. Ripley" zijn opgenomen op Corricella. De herkenningspunten van Procida weerspiegelen typische mediterrane pastelkleuren. Procida biedt eenvoudig koken en minstens 10 uitstekende restaurants met eenvoudig koken op basis van verse vis. Deze eenvoudige stijl faalt nooit dankzij de 20 lokale vissersboten. De traditionele visser werkt hier hard voor weinig geld. 's Morgens vertrekken ze met hun eigen vissersbootjes. Elke visser weet hoe hij de giacchio moet gooien, een speciaal en traditioneel visnet. Wachten op vis. Aan het einde van de visdag brengen ze de vis naar terug van huis. De lokale vissers op het eiland kennen alle kneepjes van het vak en hebben door de jaren heen geleerd hoe ze deze vaardigheid moeten gebruiken. De visserman stalt zijn gevangen vis uit op de pier. Je kan gelijk zijn verse vissen kopen waaronder: haring, kustbaardman,
zeebrasem, pijlinktvis, ombervis en inktvis.

Helgoland is a German island in the North Sea.Helgoland was established around 4000 BC. an island due to rising sea levels after the last ice age. The island was colonized from Friesland in the 8th century. The current residents still speak a North Frisian dialect, the Helgolands or Halunder Freesk. It was incorporated into the Viking Empire. In 1720 a sandbank between Helgoland and the smaller island of Düne largely washed away due to a storm tide. The connection between the two islands was lost as a result. Heligoland remained in Denmark until 1814. The British conquered the island in 1807 from the Danes. The strategically important island. In 1890 the British exchanged Helgoland on Germany for East African Zanzibar. Emperor Wilhelm II converted Helgoland into a naval support point and it remained that way until after the Second World War. In the First World War all residents were forced to leave the island. At the end of World War II, a thousand airplanes from the Royal Air Force carried out a destructive bombing, dropping around seven thousand bombs, making the island uninhabitable and the population to be evacuated. In 1952 the population was allowed to return after long insistence.
The Helgoland museum offers a rich overview as to the history, the folklore and the nature of the island. Helgolander Franz Schensky (1871-1957) is one of the pioneers of black and white photography and has a permanent place in the history of German photography. Franz Schensky has his own place at the Helgoland museum. With his photos he takes you into the breathtaking world of the beauty of the North Sea. View of the west coast of Helgoland with the lighthouse, and its original church, built in 1685 on the Oberland. On the right the lighthouse built under English rule in 1811, demolished soon after the new lighthouse was built in 1902. The latter was destroyed in 1945. Photograph of Franz Schensky c. 1895.
Helgoland is een Duits eiland in de Noordzee. Helgoland werd rond 4000 v.Chr. een eiland door het stijgen van de zeespiegel na de laatste ijstijd. In de 8e eeuw werd het eiland vanuit Friesland gekoloniseerd. De huidige bewoners spreken nog steeds een Noord-Fries dialect, het Helgolands of Halunder Freesk. Het werd ingelijfd bij het Vikingrijk. In 1720 spoelde een zandbank tussen Helgoland en het kleinere eiland Düne door een stormvloed grotendeels weg. De verbinding tussen de twee eilanden ging daardoor verloren. Helgoland bleef tot 1814 tot Denemarken behoren. De Britten veroverden het eiland in 1807 op de Denen. Het strategisch belangrijke eiland. In 1890 ruilde de Britten Helgoland aan Duitsland voor het Oost-Afrikaanse Zanzibar. Keizer Wilhelm II bouwde Helgoland uit tot marinesteunpunt en dat bleef het tot na de Tweede Wereldoorlog. In de Eerste Wereldoorlog werden alle bewoners gedwongen het eiland te verlaten. Op het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog voerden duizend vliegtuigen van de Royal Air Force een vernietigend bombardement uit, waarbij circa zevenduizend bommen werden afgeworpen, waardoor het eiland onbewoonbaar werd en de bevolking moest worden geëvacueerd. In 1952 mocht de bevolking na lang aandringen terugkeren. Sindsdien leeft het eiland hoofdzakelijk van het toerisme. Het Helgoland-museum biedt een rijk overzicht van de geschiedenis, de folklore en de aard van het eiland. Je kunt ook genieten van films. De geschiedenis is opwindend omdat Helgoland is beïnvloed door Deense, Britse en Duitse inzittenden. Helgolander Franz Schensky (1871-1957) is één van de pioniers van de zwart-wit fotografie en heeft een vaste plaats in de geschiedenis van de Duitse fotografie. Franz Schensky heeft zijn eigenplek in het Helgoland-museum. Met zijn foto's neemt hij je mee in de adembenemende wereld van de schoonheid van de Noordzee. Uitzicht op de westkust van Helgoland met de
de vuurtoren en originele kerk gebouwd in 1685. De vuurtoren is nog gebouwd onder Engels bewind in 1811, afgebroken kort nadat de nieuwe vuurtoren werd gebouwd in 1902. De laatste werd verwoest in 1945. Foto van Franz Schensky ca. 1895.

Its history begins in the ninth century with military purposes, it was gradually expanding and in the thirteenth century, with the arrival of the first Nasrid monarch Mohamed ben Al-Hamar, the construction of the palaces that marked his time of greatest splendor began. The Alhambra was officially declared a World Heritage Site in 1984. Other pictures in Nasrid palaces album.
[ESP] La ciudadela de la Alhambra, asentada sobre el Cerro de al-Sabika, en Granada (España), es uno de los complejos arquitectónicos más importantes de la Edad Media y máximo exponente del arte islámico en Occidente. Su historia comienza en el siglo IX con propósitos militares, fue paulatinamente ampliándose y en el siglo XIII, con la llegada del primer monarca nazarí Mohamed ben Al-Hamar, se inició la construcción de los palacios que marcaron su época de mayor esplendor. Tras la conquista de Granada por los Reyes Católicos en el siglo XV se hicieron reformas y Carlos V inició la construcción del palacio que lleva su nombre. En el siglo XVIII quedó abandonada. Durante la dominación francesa parte de la fortaleza fue volada, y hasta el siglo XIX no comenzó su reparación y restauración, que aún se mantiene. Más fotografías en el álbum Alhambra.

Alligator snapping turtles (Macrochelys temminckii)
are the largest freshwater turtles in the world. Their heavy heads, strong jaws and hooked beaks give them a prehistoric appearance, and their carapace, or shell, is spiked.

An incredible light bathed Machu Picchu as we went down to the site. It illuminated and enhanced the unbelievable architecture of this outstanding Inca city, like a huge stone vessel on the mountain.

Lumière sur le Machu Picchu
Une lumière incroyable baignait le Machu Picchu alors que nous descendions sur le site. Elle illuminait et mettait en valeur l'invraisemblable architecture de cette cité Inca hors du commun, comme un immense vaisseau de pierre posé sur la montagne.

Skyline (II)- Canary Wharf, London, UK
Looking down from the summit of Ben MacDui into Glen Dee, with Carn a' Mhaim on the left of the Glen and The Devils' Point to the right. The river Dee flows down the Glen eventually reaching the North Sea through Aberdeen harbour. We now have to drop down to the end of the ridge, using the boulder strewn slope appearing left of picture, to start the climb to Carn a' Mhaim. It's a long drop!!
Ben Macdui is the UK's 2nd highest peak (second only to Ben Nevis) and stands at 1309m (4294ft). After descending from this Munro we make a climb to the 2nd Munro of the day, Carn a' Mhaim (pronounced Carn-ah-Vame) at 1037m (3402ft).

In my previous photo I was face to face with this herd of cattle, and really after our curiosity they went away, rest after a long day.
I have been an absentee for personal reasons, but I love being here sharing my works and admiring, also, the works of my friends.
* I'm grateful for the visit, faves and comments of my photo.
It was a long time ago that i desired to see Machu Picchu. This
dream was realized in 2018.
This incredible Inca city perched in the mountains appeared to my amazed eyes after one day of fantastic hiking on the Inca trail.
It was late afternoon and an exceptional light bathed the entire site.
Finally, the sunset behind the mountains gave us a breathtaking view of the city.
How not to think about Pablo Neruda's poem "The Heights of Machu Picchu" and what he wrote elsewhere on Machu Picchu:
"Machu Picchu is a trip to the serenity of the soul, to the eternal fusion with the cosmos, where we feel our fragility.
It is one of the greatest marvels of South America. A resting place of butterflies in the epicentre of the great circle of life. One more miracle."
Machu Picchu - Peru

Les Hauteurs de Machu Picchu
Il y a longtemps que je voulais voir le Machu Picchu. Ce rêve s'est réalisé en 2018.
Cette incroyable cité inca perchée dans les montagnes s'est découverte à mes yeux émerveillés à l'issue d'une journée de randonnée fantastique sur le Chemin de l'Inca.
On était en fin de journée et une lumière exceptionnelle baignait tout le site.
Pour finir, le coucher du soleil derrière les montagnes nous offrit une vue époustouflante sur la cité.
Comment ne pas penser au poème de Pablo Néruda "Les Hauteurs de Machu Picchu" et à ce qu'il a écrit par ailleurs sur le Machu Picchu :
« Machu Picchu est un voyage à la sérénité de l’âme, à la fusion éternelle avec le cosmos, là-bas nous sentons notre propre fragilité.
C’est une des plus grandes merveilles d’Amérique du Sud. Un havre de papillons à l’épicentre du grand cercle de la vie.
Un miracle de plus. »

Light painting with Sabine.R as the "grand finale" of a photowalk at the Zitadelle Spandau / Spandau Citadel. As before, Sabine painted the orb while I was operating our cameras. This time I managed to capture the whole orb (the one before taken at a previous photowalk had been only half an orb, because I had made a mistake with the exposure on my camera; please see first comment). This orb still isn't perfectly captured, because I was a little too late with stopping the long exposure on my camera, but I actually like the colourful, rhythmic "afterglow" of Sabine's multicolour light painting flashlight, because it reminds me of a heartbeat as seen on a medical monitor. The vital signs look good, don't you agree?
Light Painting mit Sabine.R als krönender Abschluss eines Besuchs der (ansonsten fotografisch nicht so ergiebigen) Spandauer Zitadelle. Wie schon zuvor hatte hier wieder Sabine das Zepter bzw. die Taschenlampe geschwungen, während ich unsere Kameras bedient hatte. Hier habe ich den Orb aber erstmalig ganz auf's Bild bekommen (beim ersten Orb im Dezember '18 hatte ich bei mir die Belichtung ja versehentlich zu früh abgebrochen und so nur einen halben Orb aufs Bild bekommen; siehe ersten Kommentar). Zwar war ich hier dieses Mal sogar ein Tickchen zu spät mit dem Beenden meiner Belichtung, aber das "Nachleuchten" von Sabines Taschenlampe mit Farbwechsel, als sie diese schon wegpackte, erinnert mich an eine Herzlinie wie auf dem Monitor - und die Vitalparameter sehen doch gut aus, oder?
