The last morning of the cold days early 2017. The oak tree still standing and illuminated and the weather was beautiful. The art is a cloud texture which fits for my purposes quite well.

A view from the bridge of the 'John 1' spacecraft as she travels through the galaxy on a continuing mission to explore strange new worlds and other stuff like that.
(Actually a neck-craning look skywards up the Petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur).
According to a song from Whtiney Housten: "And in that moment of time I will feel, I will feel eternity". Now, here we have one short moment inside St. Peter's Basilica. It may be a photographic approach to bridge past and presence with the captue of movement, with the capture of one single moment in time.
Love is in the air, in the whisper of the tree,
Love is in the air in thethunder of the sea,
And I don't know if I'm just dreaming,
Don't know if I feel safe,
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name...

Taking a water taxi around Venice as the sun is setting is a joy! Let the captain of the boat chose the route. Then just sit back and enjoy all of Venice in as little as one and half hours.
Sorry about all of the typos lately! I'm uploading photos a different way and it seems to misplace letters!
Königssee
by Martin Schmidt (www.schmaidt.de)
Die Automatik des Passats ist auf D eingeloggt, Google Maps sagt uns, wie es zurück nach Nürnberg geht und unsere Blicke haben nur ein Ziel: die Rückspiegel. Auftrag: die letzte Sicht auf die Berge, die letzten Gipfel mitnehmen. Es braucht nicht lange bis so ein paar Bäume auf Steinbrocken an See einem so richtig Appetit gemacht haben. Mich haben Sie auf jeden Fall infiziert. Ich hätte saumäßig Bock direkt wieder umzudrehen, mich mit Wanderschuhen, meinen beiden Damen, Kamera, Stativ und Filtern zu bewaffnen und wieder irgendwo hochzugehen oder irgendwo einen See zu finden, in den ich stundenlang Stöcke werfe, die mit Begeisterung wiedergeholt werden, während die Kamera belichtet.
Die Zeit in den Berchtesgardener und Chiemgauer Alpen war sehr schön - man muss schon fast "kitschig" sagen. Die Beweise folgen. Hoffentlich sind sie nicht nur für uns, die wir die Szenen vor Ort gesehen und durch Anstiege erkämpft haben, eindrucksvoll.
Den Alpenstart macht der Königssee bei Schönau - direkt umgeben vom König Watzmann. Von Letzterem wird dann später noch mehr zu lesen und sehen sein.
Alle Infos gibt wie immer im Blog auf www.schmaidt.de/blog

The nyala or inyala /Tragelaphus angasii/ is a spiral-horned antelope native to southern Africa.
Il Santuario di Loreto conserva, secondo un'antica tradizione, oggi comprovata dalle ricerche storiche e archeologiche, la casa nazaretana della Madonna. La dimora terrena di Maria a Nazaret era costituita da due parti: da una Grotta scavata nella roccia, tuttora venerata nella basilica dell'Annunciazione a Nazaret.
l rivestimento marmoreo è il capolavoro dell'arte lauretana. Esso custodisce l'umile Casa di Nazareth come lo scrigno accoglie la perla. Voluto da Giulio II ed ideato dal sommo architetto Donato Bramante, che nel 1509 ne approntò il disegno, fu attuato sotto la direzione di Andrea Sansovino (1513-27), di Ranieri Nerucci e di Antonio da Sangallo il Giovane. In seguito furono collocate nelle nicchie le statue delle Sibille e dei Profeti.
The Sanctuary of Loreto preserves, according to an ancient tradition, proven today by the historical and archaeological research, the Nazareth home of Our Lady. The earthly dwelling of Mary in Nazareth was made up of two parts: a cave carved into the rock, still venerated in the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth.
the marble facing is the Loreto masterpiece. It preserves the humble house of Nazareth as the casket welcomes the pearl. By Julius II and designed by the great architect Donato Bramante, that in 1509 he readied the design was implemented under the direction of Andrea Sansovino (1513-27), Ranieri Nerucci and Antonio da Sangallo the Younger. Later they were placed in niches statues of Sibyls and the Prophets.
A long exposure shot taken at the Belem tower in Lisbon as the sun rose, and before the tourists arrived. It reminds me what a wonderful spot Lisbon is. Must get back there pronto.

The Laugavegur is a famous trekking route in South-West Iceland from the hot springs area of Landmannalaugar to the glacial valley of Þórsmörk . It is noted for the wide variety of landscapes on its 55 km (34 mi) path. The route is typically completed over 2–4 days with potential stops at the mountain huts at Hrafntinnusker, Álftavatn, Hvanngil and Emstrur. An ultramarathon is held on the route each July. It is possible to combine the trek with the Fimmvörðuháls route which goes over the pass from Þórsmörk to Skógar for an additional one or two days or an additional 25 km (16 mi). Landmannalaugar, Þórsmörk, and Skógar are all reachable by bus during the summer. A bus from Hella connects with Álftavatn once a day during the summer.
