When driving Alberta's stunning Icefields Parkway one must stop at iconic Peyto Lake.
This "dog headed" lake is glacially fed by the Peyto Glacier, which provides the rock flour that creates these striking blue/teal tones.
Thanks for any comments, faves and suggestions.
The Kaiserkapelle is a prime example of romanesque architecture and also one of the most complete such structures. Built in the 13th century, part of Nuremberg Castle.
The chapel is a so-called "double chapel". This is the upper level, reserved for the emperor. The hole right in front connects this level to the lower level, for "ordinary" people, so they could enjoy mass together with the emperor.
Consequently the upper level is only accessible from the inside of the castle's palace, while the lower level only has an entrance from the outside of the palace.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Los Uros, son un pueblo ancestral que actualmente se concentra en la meseta del Collao y en el Perú en las islas flotantes ubicadas en la bahÃa de Puno sobre el lago Titicaca.
El término «uros» proviene de la palabra aimara «qhana uru» («qhana» quiere decir claro; «uru» significa dÃa, por lo tanto significa dÃa claro). «Uri», que significa indómito, chucaro, bravo, por lo que los uros fueron uri urus, es decir hombres indómitos, claros y salvajes, descendientes de un grupo étnico llamado «qapi», cuya lengua era el pukina, hoy extinta. Actualmente los habitantes de los uros hablan el aimara, y castellano.
Las islas flotantes son un conjunto de superficies artificiales habitables construidas de totora (jucos), una planta acuática que crece en la superficie del lago Titicaca.
La construcción de estas islas se hace tejiendo las totoras en las zonas en donde crece más densa, formando una capa natural a la que los uros denominan khili. Sobre esta capa construyen sus viviendas, también de una malla tejida de totora a la que denominan "estera". Cada vivienda está compuesta por una sola habitación. Cocinan al aire libre para evitar incendios.
En el Perú existen más de 20 islas de la etnia uro chulluni. El número de familias que ocupan una isla es variable, pero en general oscila entre tres y diez. Entre las principales islas, destacan: Tupiri, Santa MarÃa, Tribuna, Toranipata, Chumi, ParaÃso, Kapi, Titino, Tinajero y Negrone.
Según la última encuesta, las Islas Uros tienen una población de 272 familias identificadas.
En marzo del 2007, la etnia uro irohito inicia la construcción de 4 islas en la zona boliviana. AsÃ, la primera isla flotante de totora en Boliviadenominada Pachakamak, ve la luz, seguidas de Phuwa, Balsa Hampus e Inti Huata, gracias a un plan turÃstico dirigido desde La Paz.

The sky around the Kelpies was mostly cloudy, but was clearer further east, so the sunrise created this colourful backdrop for me.

And sorry, due to flickr's inability to properly save local language tags since late Sept. 2022 and no fix in sight (no UTF-8 support in tags, it appears only characters from the stone-age "Code Page 437" work correctly), the tags are incomplete - I had to omit some tags, because the 场 character in IAPM广场 and 上海环贸广场 causes flickr's tag parser to create gibberish in all following tags.
The "Nanshi Qu" assigned by flickr as location name is also wrong, a long standing issue with flickr's trashy location database.

Well, taking photos out in nature - but trying out a monochrome treatment for a nature shot. But if you don't practice, you can't get any better at it. So... practice makes perfect. In the long run.
