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.
In campagna il silenzio non è mai silenzioso: c’è sempre un frinire di cicale, un cinguettare d’uccelli, un frullo d’ali, il ronzio di un insetto, un fruscio fulmineo nell’erba, il singhiozzo di una goccia d’acqua. Eppure non c’è silenzio più bello.

In the countryside, silence is never silent: there is always a chirping of cicadas, a chirping of birds, a flutter of wings, the buzz of an insect, a lightning rustle in the grass, the hiccups of a drop of water. Yet there is no more beautiful silence.

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.

I have been sitting on this shot for a couple of months. Usually, when I go to take night photos, I take a few "throw-aways" at the beginning just to make sure the camera's settings are correct. However, I kind of liked how this one came out so...here it is.
Taking a walk along the fortress of Hellevoetsluis. This city once was an important naval base and home port of the Dutch naval fleet in the 17th Century. The city's name literally means the Lock at the Foot of Hell, although it is probably not really the etymological origin.

We finally got some snow - not loads, but enough for some shots. And it was fun to be out when it was actually coming down.

While looking up windy quotes, this one felt good to me, & when I read who wrote it..I had to laugh, thinking of his version of the quote...soaring through the sky on his motorcycle :)
