am Oberpfälzer Jakobsweg im Naturpark Hirschwald

Bad Oeynhausen is a nice little town in East Westphalia, famous as a spa centre for more than a century. My favourite place in town is the Kurpark (spa gardens) with beautiful garden architecture and historical buildings of the early days of the spa era. This Saturday we made the best of the cloudy and grey weather.

Annual Review 2016 March

With this series I'm placing one picture from each month of 2016,

which has a special meaning or memory for me.

 

This photo chosen because almost after a winter season without snow or ice, it was suddenly white and wintry weather in March.

 

Jaar overzicht 2016 Maart

Met deze serie ga ik uit elke maand van 2016 één foto plaatsen,

die voor mij een speciale betekenis of herinnering heeft.

 

Deze foto gekozen omdat bijna na een winterseizoen zonder sneeuw of ijs, het in Maart opeens weer wit en winters was.

 

Bedankt voor de TIP Nadine.

El trencadís un tipo de mosaico, que se caracteriza por utilizar teselas irregulares, las cuales se obtienen al partir baldosas cerámicas a golpe de martillo. “Trencadís” es un vocablo catalán que significa “quebradizo.”

 

El trencadís se hizo popular luego de que lo utilizara Antoni Gaudí, arquitecto español para decorar el Parque Güell en Barcelona. Empleó para ello restos de cerámica y restos de vajilla de otras procedencias.

 

Al trocear las cerámicas en teselas más pequeñas, el trencadís, le permitió a Gaudí revestir las más diversas formas sobre todo las curvas y las ondulaciones, tan usuales en la arquitectura gaudiana.

La cubierta de cerámica, desempeñaba también la función de proteger las obras de albañilería de los agentes atmosféricos.

 

Un mosaico está realizado con la técnica del “trencadís” si cumple con lo siguiente:

Las teselas son de forma irregular.

Las teselas se articulan a modo de puzzle.

Las teselas poseen aproximadamente las mismas dimensiones.

Las juntas entre teselas deben ser del mismo ancho.

 

Estas chimeneas recubiertas con trencadís se encuentran en la terraza del palacio Güel, una de las obras maestras de Gaudí.

A sculpture of 15 wild horses has crowned a barren Central Washington hillside for more nearly two decades, but the rusted sheets of steel still are an inspiring sight to travelers along busy I- 90.

The 200-foot line of life-size charging horses, the creation of David Govedare of Chewelah, Wash., captures a mystical spirit from a time when real wild horses roamed the steppes.

Titled "Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies," the scene symbolically re-creates the Great Spirit turning loose a herd of wild horses above the Columbia River's Wanapum Lake.

My latest tessellation design in my Blocks-tessellation serie and I call this one "Little Blocks". You can see the 3 different phases, either follow the yellow or the blue path, starting on the left.

Snowy Egret. (Egretta thula)

Floris was put to sleep by the vet. 16 years old. He could not go on like this. He lost a lot of weight and strength and the inflamation of his nose got worser and worser .This was caused by a polyp in the nose against the eye socket that couldnot be operated. The antibiotics didnot work anymore. There was no longer any prospect of improvement.

The inflammation had become very bad. He was on painkillers the last two month.

 

De dierenarts heeft Floris laten inslapen. Net 16 jaar oud. Zo kon hij niet verder. Hij verloor veel gewicht en kracht en de ontsteking van zijn neus werd erger en erger. Dit werd veroorzaakt door een poliep in de neus tegen de bovenkant van de oogkas aan die niet kon worden geopereerd. De antibiotica werkten niet meer. Er was geen zicht meer op verbetering. De ontsteking was heel erg geworden. Hij gebruikte de afgelopen twee maanden pijnstillers.

 

See my pictures in Flickriver

Thanks for the well wishes

 

It is slowly better, hope to be back online more often

 

No new pictures recently, had to stay at home through my illness,

I hope with archival photographs and later with newer material more on flickr to be.

Took this one today down in Newport Beach. There is a heavy storm heading in my direction promising rain for the next 5 days. This is a look at it as it approaches from the west, unfortunately 5 mins after this shot was taken the sun plugged under the cloud layer and shut down any color left in the sky. You should have seen me and about 5 other photographers jaws drop in dismay as the color was sucked out of the clouds. Just 15 mins before sundown there were nice puffy clouds and we were all talking about how epic the sunset was going to be, and in nothing flat the sky turned gray. I have never really believed in jinxes but I think we jinx ourselves. Mother Nature can be a finicky Miss. :)

Cypresses are everywhere Tuscany, and so are roads that wind their way in serpentines across the hilly landscape. The combination of these two gives breathtaking subjects.

 

Zypressen sind in der Toskana allgegenwärtig, ebenso wie Straßen die sich in Serpentinen durch die hügelige Landschaft schlängeln. Die Kombination dieser beiden ergibt atemberaubende Motive.

Once again many thanks for visits, comments and faves, much

appreciated!
