Crazy Yellow for Crazy Tuesday #YellowColourColorAmarillo
The Flickr Lounge, week 32 #Neglect
Detail of the "Glass Storage Marking" field of letters / pavement sculpture by Berlin architects Kühn Malvezzi in front of the Berlinische Galerie in Berlin-Kreuzberg. "The black and yellow field of letters accentuates the entire length of the plaza in front of the museum. It consists of the names of 160 artists who are represented in the Berlinische Galerie by notable works or groups of works, arranged in rows without breaks. Standing in the middle of the field, the visitor has trouble discerning the correct divisions between known and unknown names. Therefore, many peculiar and even humorous alienations and malapropisms arise. Read vertically or diagonally, the field yields meaningless sound poems, a tribute to the Berlinische Galerie’s one-of-a-kind collection of 1920s Berlin Dadaism. Children love to spell their names by hopping across the letters." (STRG/CTRL+ www.berlinischegalerie.de/en/museum-berlin/art-city-space...)
What fascinated me about this particular detail of the field of letters was that crack in the pavement going right through the capital "Y". I don't know whether the crack was caused by the weed growing there, or the weed grew there after the pavement broke, but since this is art, it might well have been an intended breaking point, or rather line. Taken with my little compact MFT-sensor camera, the Lumix LX100, and processed in LR and Luminar 3.
Happy Crazy Tuesday, Everyone :-)
Sollbruchstelle
Detail der Gehwegskulptur "Markierung Glaslager" auf dem Vorplatz der Berlinischen Galerie in Berlin Kreuzberg. Das "schwarz-gelbe Buchstabenfeld hebt den Museumsvorplatz in seiner ganzen Länge hervor. Es besteht aus 160 ohne Unterbrechung aneinandergereihten exemplarischen Künstlernamen, die mit herausragenden Werken oder ganzen Werkgruppen in der Berlinischen Galerie vertreten sind. Mitten auf dem Feld stehend, tut sich der Besucher in der Regel schwer, zwischen bekannten und unbekannten Namen die richtige Trennung zu vollziehen. Daraus ergeben sich oft eigentümliche, auch komische Verfremdungen und Verballhornungen. Senkrecht oder diagonal gelesen, ergeben sich Sinn-lose Lautgedichte, eine Reverenz an die einzigartige Sammlung zum Berliner Dadaismus der 1920er-Jahre in der Berlinischen Galerie. Kinder lieben es, ihren Namen über die Felder hüpfend zu buchstabieren." (STRG/CTRL+ www.berlinischegalerie.de/de/museum-berlin/kunst-im-ausse...)
Was mich an diesem Detail des Buchstabenfeldes besonders fasziniert hat, war der Riss im Asphalt, der genau durch das große "Y" geht. Ob er nun von dem ungestümen Unkraut verursacht wurde oder die Pflänzchen später nur die Gelegenheit, hier an Erdreich zu kommen, schlau genutzt haben, weiß ich nicht, aber da es sich um Kunst am Bau handelt, könnte dieser Riss auch als Sollbruchstelle eingeplant gewesen sein. Aufgenommen mit meiner kleinen "MFT-Kompakten", der Lumix LX100, und entwickelt in Luminar 3.
It was a foggy morning. I decided to go to the harbour to see the fishermen launch... i sent the drone up approximately 120m and took this image of the town. the amazing thing is that the fog in the background seemingly cuts Yzerfontein off from the mainland making it look like an island. the fog makes interesting patterns on the water. I feel so incredibly grateful for having been able to take this image. I was there in the morning, and its beauty if forever preserved.
This friendly young guy gives us a demonstration on one of the flutes he made.

North Wales is a land of high mountains, rugged crags, tumbling rivers, clear lakes, ancient woodland and a varied coastline.
Within this, the old kingdom of Gwynedd is the jewel in the crown, known in Welsh as Eryri and in English as Snowdonia.
The Snowdonia National Park has 15 mountains that sit over 3000 feet and Yr Wyddfa, meaning burial mound in Welsh, sits as the chieftain of them all.
Twin pano 5.13 sunrise mash up.
This statue at the top of a fountain in the center of the Plaza de Armas of Cuzco represents the Inca Pachacutec, 9th Inca emperor, and one of the greatests (reign : 1438 - 1471).
It dominates the ancient capital of the Incas, before this great empire was destroyed by those highwaymen who were called the Conquistadors.

HOJAS AL VIENTO:
Splinky is a small man, a prisoner of the demon of solitude, who deals with his sadness by clinging to memories of the past that he gathers from a huge chest. He lives in the illusion that his old love still exists, and every day becomes more enamoured by a heap of old, lifeless things, but "SÃrio" the guardian angel, will make our clown live in the present, he will be able to say goodbye to his past, and embark on a new life...
Thank you for your visits comments and favs! :-)

I wanted you to see the size of this place. When I found out it was purchased by and designed by the developers out of Austin, Texas, I wasn't surprised. The place is huge and they tried to touch on everything. It's positioned so people can sit out on the farthest deck and watch the sunset. Of course, small bars are out positioned in different areas of the deck. And sure, live bands..;) Sooooo Austin. Don't get me wrong, it's a great setup. It doesn't fit the rest of the city or coastal area, but that's the way it goes. I wonder how the locals feel about it?
We are here at the Patapampa pass, on the road back to Arequipa, in a place called Mirador de los Andes. This is one of the highest point of our trip, at 4910 m altitude. We had already been there the day before to reach the Colca valley.
It's cold, a little icy wind blows, and the weather is threatening. The great good weather of the morning is far away.

4910 m d'altitude !
On est ici au col de Patapampa, sur la route de retour vers Arequipa, à un endroit appelé le MIrador des Andes. C'est un des points culminants de notre voyage, à 4910 m d'altitude. On était déjà passé par là la veille pour rejoindre la vallée du Colca.
Il fait froid, un petit vent glacial souffle, et le temps est menaçant. Il est loin, le grand beau temps du matin.

The Colca Canyon is one of the deepest in America (about 3400 m - 11154 ft at its highest point), more than twice the depth of the Grand Canyon in the United States.
Here, at Condor's Cross, we already overhang the Colca river of more than 1200 m (3937 ft).

La profondeur du canyon
Le canyon du Colca est un des plus profonds en Amérique (environ 3400 m à son point le plus haut), plus de 2 fois la profondeur du Grand Canyon aux USA.
Ici, à la Croix du Condor, on surplombe déjà le rio Colca de plus de 1200 m.
