Macro mondays theme - stripes

 

Nearly the whole week I went mad, what to do with this theme; thought about spoons reflecting stripes, sheets of colourful paper, pencils of course - and then I saw my little daughter´s feather with stripes in all colours. And here it is. Hope, you enjoy!

Passing through a long “tree tunnel” approaching milepost 120 between Sommer/Hollis and Kolbe, Illinois, is a westbound Keokuk Junction Railway freight on April 7, 2016. Two EMD FP9s (Nos. 1750 and 1752) and GP20 No. 2003 power the train of “hot cars” picked up at an interchange yard at Bartonville and are returning to Kolbe station (located near Mapleton) on this former TP&W line.

HMBT !

HMBT!

True nostalgia is an ephemeral composition of disjointed memories.

[Florence King]

 

entre hier et avant-hier, entre aujourd'hui et après-demain ou encore plus loin. Il peut rompre à tout instant. Il suffit d'y déposer un pied trop sûr pour que la fine pellicule de glace se brise et ne réduise à néant le délicat équilibre sans cesse ré-inventé par la nature au fil des saisons, en haute montagne.

Strolling at the village of old Pedino (Lemnos island) an August morning during last summer, I was excited to see the wonderful transformation of a prior abandoned relic to this lovely art shop.

In case you're interested to see its prior state here's the link www.flickr.com/photos/nikoskotanidis/7823448936/in/datepo...

 

Location, Old Pedino village, Lemnos island, Hellas.

Toulouse nació a orillas del río Garona, fresca, hermosa y acuática.

 

Tal vez por ello la capital histórica de la provincia del Languedoc y del departamento del Alto Garona fue perdiendo murallas a medida que iba ganando canales, y tal vez por ello la Ciudad Rosa, así llamada por el color de sus ladrillos, invita a un recorrido por sus aguas centelleantes.

 

En ellas se reflejan árboles soberbios, puentes centenarios y molinos medievales.

 

Pasear por la orilla del rio Garonne entre el Pont Neuf y el puente de Saint Pierre y entre este y el de los catalanes es una delicia. Zona de ocio donde los jóvenes se sientan en la orilla del rio para pasar la tarde.

IC 443 (also known as the faint and elusive Jellyfish Nebula Jellyfish Nebula and Sharpless 248 (Sh2-248)) is a Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) in the constellation Gemini. Flanked by two bright stars, Mu and Eta Geminorum. Its distance is roughly 5,000 light years from Earth. At that distance, this image would be about 300 light-years across.

Τα Κορέστεια είναι μια ιστορική περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Πρόκειται για μια συστάδα ορεινών οικισμών (Άνω και Κάτω Κρανιώνα, Χάλαρα, Άνω και Κάτω Μελάς, Μακροχώρι, Μαυρόκαµπος, Άγιος Αντώνιος, Γάβρος) που παρουσιάζουν έντονο αρχιτεκτονικό και πολιτισμικό ενδιαφέρον. Η παραδοσιακή αρχιτεκτονική των χωριών είναι ιδιαίτερη για την περιοχή της Δυτικής Μακεδονίας. Τα παλαιά σπίτια είναι κατασκευασμένα με πλίνθους με κοκκινόχωμα και άχυρο, που δίνουν το κοκκινωπό χρώμα στο τοπίο της περιοχής. Ο τρόπος κατασκευής των σπιτιών διατηρήθηκε έως τα μέσα του 20ου αιώνα και έπειτα εγκαταλείφθηκε.

 

Korestia is a historic region of Western Macedonia in Greece. It’s a cluster of mountain villages (Ano and Kato Kranionas, Halara, Ano and Kato Melas, Makrochori, Mavrokampos, Agios Antonios, Gavros) exhibiting strong architectural and cultural interest. The traditional architecture of the villages is great for the region of Western Macedonia. Old houses are constructed with handmade bricks with red clay and straw, giving a reddish color to the landscape. The construction of the houses was maintained until the mid-20th century and then abandoned.

Found her during a fototrip in Darmstadt Park Rosenhöhe with my fotofriend Dagmar www.flickr.com/photos/137645690@N02/

on a dull day. At a time, the sun came out.... what luck !!

 

The Rosenhöhe (Rose Heights) is a beautiful garden, which was previously a vineyard in the possession of the royal house. It was transformed into a landscaped garden in the English style at the beginning of the 19th century. The royal architect Georg Moller decorated the park with tea-houses and pavilions.

The mystical park serves also as the cemetery for the Duches of Darmstadt with two impressive mausoleum buildings in its remote parts.

I get a deep sense of inner peace when I see a beautiful bird such as this roseate spoonbill feeding and preening in a glassy surfaced lagoon, bathed in early morning light.

 

Have a wonderful weekend!
