It's All Good at the London Borough Market.
Les Anneaux de Buren (nommés aussi Les Anneaux) sont une œuvre de Daniel Buren et Patrick Bouchain située sur le Quai des Antilles à Nantes (sur l'île de Nantes).
Le long de la Loire et du hangar à bananes, l'œuvre est composée de 18 anneaux de 4 mètres de diamètre et de couleur argent, fixés à la rambarde du quai, situés à égale distance, les uns derrière les autres. La nuit, les anneaux s'éclairent, alternant rouges, verts et bleus.
Les Anneaux ont été créés pour laisser place à l'interprétation du visiteur. Néanmoins Daniel Buren a souhaité inscrire son œuvre dans l'histoire de la ville et sa géographie. Ainsi, les cercles formés font référence aux anneaux qui enserraient et emprisonnaient les esclaves, en référence au commerce triangulaire dont Nantes a été la plaque tournante au XVIIIe siècle.
De même, ils évoquent des anneaux de mariage unissant le fleuve, la mer et la terre sur un espace à la croisée des éléments.
Les anneaux sont installés sur d'anciens bollards dont l'artiste a respecté le nombre, le rythme et la disposition. L'œuvre a été imaginée de manière à ce que sa vision nocturne soit totalement différente de sa vision diurne : en journée, les anneaux constitués d'acier galvanisé invitent le regard du visiteur à balayer tout le paysage environnant, tandis que la nuit des éclairages aux leds proposent des jeux colorés et lumineux dominants qui s’entrelacent et se fondent les uns dans les autres.

Buren's Rings (also called The Rings) is a work of Daniel Buren and Patrick Bouchain located on the Quai des Antilles in Nantes (island of Nantes).
Along the Loire and the bananas shed, the work consists of 18 rings, 4 meters diameter, silver colored, attached to the railing of the pier, located at equal distance, one behind the other. At night, the rings are illuminated red, green and blue alternating.
The Rings were created to allow interpretation for the visitor. Nevertheless Daniel Buren wanted to include his work in the history of the city and its geography. Thus, circles refer to the rings which enclosed and imprisoned slaves, with reference to the triangular trade. Nantes was the hub of this eighteenth century trade.
Similarly, they evoke wedding rings uniting the river, sea and land on a space at the intersection of the elements.
The rings are installed on old bollards which the artist has met the number, timing and layout. The work was conceived so that his night vision is completely different from its daytime vision. During the day, the rings made of galvanized steel invite the visitor's eye to sweep all the surrounding landscape, while the night lights LEDs offer the dominant bright, colorful games that intertwine and merge into each other.

A cidade de Malmo, devastada por um passado industrial, é hoje conhecida por a sua universidade e os seus prédios verdes. Malmo foi uma das primeiras e mais industrializadas cidades da Escandinávia, mas teve de fazer um enorme esforça para se adaptar ao pós-industrialismo. Desde a construção da ponte de Oresund, Malmo sofreu uma grande transformação com a evolução arquitetónica, atraindo nova biotecnologia e empresas de topo e particularmente, alunos de todo o mundo para a Universidade de Malmo, fundada em 1998. A cidade tem muitos edifÃcios históricos e belÃssimos parques naturais que fazem dela uma cidade verde e bastante atrativa para se viver.
Como é belo o entardecer na cidade de Malmo, um entardecer que na maioria das vezes nos passa completamente ao lado, tal é a nossa ânsia de viver, um momento que deveria ser vivido com a mesma intensidade com que se vivem as grandes ocasiões da nossa vida. O pôr-do-sol é normalmente mais brilhante do que o nascer do sol, pois a matiz do vermelho e laranja são mais intensas e vibrantes. A atmosfera responde de diversas formas à exposição da luz solar, em particular, no final do dia, pois a atmosfera tende a reter uma quantidade maior de partÃculas em suspensão do que no inÃcio do dia. Durante o dia, o sol aquece a superfÃcie terrestre, diminuindo assim a humidade do ar e aumentando a velocidade e a turbulência dos ventos, o que acaba por levantar a poeira para o ar. Contudo, as diferenças entre o nascer do sol e o pôr-do-sol, em alguns casos, também dependem das peculiaridades geográficas do local de onde o evento está a ser observado.
Aqui em Malmo, o entardecer de repente tornou-se diferente, mais belo e chamativo que o habitual, mais mágico e encantador, mais atrativo luminoso e delicado, talvez por ter sido o pôr-do-sol mais a norte da Europa que tenhamos presenciado. Diz a ciência que a luz do Sol sofre um desvio gerado pela atmosfera, por isso, o sol ainda pode ser visto depois de já estar atrás do horizonte fÃsico. Este efeito também se manifesta durante o nascer do sol. Outra curiosidade gerada pela distorção da luz solar pela atmosfera é que o sol também aparenta ser maior no horizonte, uma ilusão de ótica similar a que ocorre com a Lua.

One Angel Square
One Angel Square[1] is an office building in Manchester, England. Construction work began in 2010 and was completed in February 2013. The landmark building is the head office of the Co-operative Group. Standing 72.5 metres (237.8 feet) tall, the building forms the centrepiece of the new £800 million NOMA development in the northern quarter of Manchester city centre. The building cost at least £105 million to construct and was sold on leaseback terms in 2013 for £142 million.
One Angel Square is one of the most sustainable large buildings in Europe and is built to a BREEAM 'Outstanding' rating. It is powered by a biodiesel cogeneration plant using rapeseed oil to provide electricity and heat. The structure makes use of natural resources, maximising passive solar gain for heat and using natural ventilation through its double-skin facade, adiabatic cooling, rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling and waste heat recycling.
The building's distinctive form has been compared to a sliced egg and a ship.[16] Its design was announced by architects 3DReid in May 2009 and construction began in July 2010 with a projected completion date in March 2013. In December 2012, the scheme surpassed its pan-European sustainability aims and achieved a world-record BREEAM score of 95.32%. It is also an energy-plus building, producing surplus energy and zero carbon emissions. The building has received numerous awards for its striking aesthetic and sustainability aims.

The Rainy Day
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
By Simran Khurana
.
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
,
And the day is dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark...
Ross Abbey, Headford, County Galway, Ireland
The Ross Errilly Friary is a medieval Franciscan friary located about a mile to the northwest of Headford, County Galway, Ireland. It is a National Monument of Ireland and among the best-preserved medieval monastic sites in the country. Though usually referred to by locals as "Ross Abbey," this is not technically correct as the community never had an abbot.
Like many other abandoned Christian sites in Ireland, Ross Errilly has continued to be used as a burial ground by area residents. In addition to tombs that date from the friary's active period, many graves dating from the 18th through 20th centuries can be found inside the church walls. In some cases, tombstones comprise the floors of walkways and crawlspaces.

"... Tenho um cuiudo picaço,
peito e anca que é um colosso,
que já me deu muito gosto
mandando corda em rodeio,
- quando eu abria pra fora
num armadão encopado
e acomodava o chumbado
lustrando a capa do olho ..."

The Sea Arch Stack, Crohy Head, Dungloe, County Donegal, Ireland
I didn’t even realise that this wonderful natural formation even existed until recently. I was in the western coast of Ireland when I found out and located this barely known arch stack!
It is located on a small peninsula called Crohy Head. Very difficult to climb down too and you even have to use a rope that is attached to some rocks on the cliff face! Amazing location with this very unique sea arch

Stuttgart is the only city in Germany where wine is grown within the urban area, mainly in the districts of Rotenberg, Uhlbach and Untertürkheim.
Stuttgart is still one of Germany's largest wine-growing cities with more than 400 hectares of vine area, thanks in main to its location at the centre of Germany's fourth largest wine region, the Württemberg wine growing area which covers 11,522 hectares (28,470 acres) and is one of only 13 official areas captured under German Wine law. The continuing importance of wine to the local economy is marked every year at the annual wine festival ('Weindorf'). (Wikipedia)
