Una finestra al mar
petita i blanca
que ens obligui a somiar
enllà dels nostres absurds,
enllà d'aquest jo petit
que ens omple el cor però buida l'à nima.

Una finestra al mar de LluÃs Llach
El castillo de AlfajarÃn fue construido en el siglo XI por Aben Alfaje en la atalaya natural de los Montes Blancos, junto a la ermita de la Virgen de la Peña, con el fin de vigilar la ribera del Ebro y proteger Zaragoza.
El acceso era mediante un puente levadizo que estaba flanqueado por dos torres, una de arco apuntado que contenÃa la puerta de acceso y la otra de gran volumen con detalles góticos y planta cuadrada.
El muro sur ha desaparecido y en el muro norte, mejor conservado, se abre un portillo que lo une a la Torre del Homenaje. En su extremo del este presenta otro torreón pentagonal muy deteriorado.
La Torre del Homenaje, de grandes proporciones, fue construida en el siglo XIV sobre un espolón del muro oeste. Su planta es rectangular de 14 por 10 metros, y su obra de tapial árabe con revestimiento de ladrillo macizo hasta media altura. Sólo conserva dos paredes de gran espesor y el arranque de una tercera.
En el extenso patio interior quedan las ruinas de lo que pudo ser palacio de los Cornel, una serie de paredones y algunas estancias subterráneas abovedadas de gran longitud comunicadas por medio de un pasadizo
Au départ,il y a eu des feuilles du beau coleus de Clo que Lou a mises dans un petit pot afin qu'elles fassent des racines...J'ai vu grandir le coleus à une fenêtre de mon sous-sol...Nous avons même dû le couper en deux tellement il avait grandi...Le printemps dernier, Lou a planté les deux parties dans le jardin...L'une a dépéri et n'a pas survécu...La partie du haut est devenue ce coleus lequel continuera sa vie, au sous-sol,cet hiver...À l'an prochain...peut-être...

Doi Inthanon is the highest mountain in Thailand. In 1954, the forests around Doi Inthanon were conserved, creating Doi Inthanon National Park, as one of the original 14 national parks of Thailand.
On the main road to the summit of Doi Inthanon stand two adjacent chedis, one called Naphamethinidon, meaning "by the strength of the land and air", and the other, Naphaphonphumisiri, meaning "being the strength of the air and the grace of the land". These temples were built to honour the 60th birthday anniversary of King Bhumibol Adulyadej in 1987, and the 60th birthday anniversary of Queen Sirikit in 1992, respectively.
Now regarding the image: It is pano shot of 4 images each taken at 15mm, F/8, 1/125 Sec, ISO 100 with exposure bias set at +0.7 step - all handheld. This picture was taken from a small cliff near by the campus, one has to climb up here in order to capture the full panoramic view of this beautiful place!
The weather was very foggy and the views were not clear. We were waiting for the fog to get clear as it was constantly moving and clearing for few minutes in-between.

The thickest fog I've ever seen over the street.

Since I haven’t had much opportunity to shoot lately, I decided to revisit a shot and process it in B&W. I kept looking at the post of all my Flickr friends and wanted to get into the act somehow.
This is a stacked long exposure so the 25s in the EXIF is just a fraction of the actual exposure time. I got lucky with some good light and was able to capture a lot of detail which I think suits this architecture type photography.
One of those shots where if I managed to take two steps to the left the composition would have been perfect, unfortunately I was standing right of the edge of the loch as it was. I think it looks good in black and white to emphasise the mist and contrast with the trees in the distance.
Bald ist es wieder so weit und es wird neue Motive in "meinem" Makrorevier geben.
Den Aurorafalter (Männchen) entdeckte ich in der frühen Morgensonne an einer Wiesenschaumkraut-Blüte. Mit einem Reflektor machte ich dem Falter und der Blüte Schatten, während der Hintergrund der blütenreichen Wiese von der Sonne beschienen wurde (17.04.2014, 7:34 am).

Walkers strolling along the Boardwalk in the Yellowstone's Midway Geyser Basin. The Grand Prismatic Spring is magnificent as seen from the chalky, steep, treacherous hill to it's SW.
The Opal and Turquoise pools are above it with the Excelsior pool steaming to the right.
Thank you for taking a look!
