Lake Atanasovsko is a salt coastal lake north of Burgas, Bulgaria
Due to the water of Lake Atanasovsko's high salt content that increases every year because of the link with the sea, salt has been produced in it since 1906, with 40,000 tons of sea salt being obtained a year.
“Tú no eres para mí todavía más que un muchachito igual a otros cien mil muchachitos. Y no te necesito. Tampoco tú tienes necesidad de mí. No soy para ti más que un zorro entre otros cien mil zorros semejantes. Pero si me domesticas, entonces tendremos necesidad el uno del otro. Tú serás para mí único en el mundo, yo seré para ti único en el mundo…”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry “El Principito"
El Cortijo del Fraile es una edificación que está situado al Sureste de Níjar (Almería), dentro del Parque Natural de Cabo de Gata-Níjar. Las localidades más cercanas son Los Albaricoques y Rodalquilar. En sus proximidades tuvo lugar el 22 de julio de 1928 el suceso conocido como Crimen de Nijar que inspiró el drama en verso de Federico García Lorca titulado Bodas de Sangre.
La noticia sobre el Crimen de Nijar aparecida en ABC del 25 de julio de 1928, que titulada “Crimen desarrollado en circunstancias misteriosas”, decía:
“Almería, 24, 1 tarde. En las inmediaciones de un cortijo de Níjar se ha perpetrado un crimen en circunstancias misteriosas. Para la mañana de ayer se había concertado la boda de una hija del cortijero, joven de veinte años.
En la casa de hallaban esperando la hora de ceremonia el novio y numerosos invitados. Como la hora se acercaba y la novia no llegaba ni aparecía por la casa, los invitados se retiraron contrariados. Uno de éstos encontró a una distancia de ocho kilómetros del cortijo el cadáver ensangrentado de un primo de la novia que iba a casarse, apellidado Montes Cañadas, de treinta y cuatro años. A las voces de auxilio del que hizo el hallazgo acudieron numerosas personas que regresaban de la cortijada y la Guardia Civil, que logró dar con la novia, que se hallaba en un lugar próximo al que estaba el cadáver y con las ropas desgarradas.
Detenida la novia, manifestó que había huido en unión de su primo para burlar al novio. La fuga la emprendieron en una caballería, y al llegar al lugar del crimen les salió al encuentro un enmascarado, que hizo cuatro disparos, produciendo la muerte de Montes Cañadas.
También fue detenido el novio, quien niega toda participación en el crimen, que hasta ahora parece envuelto en el mayor misterio.”

Machu Picchu is possibly the most famous archaeological site in all of the Americas, and is also one of the most beautiful places anywhere on earth. It is often referred to as the Lost City of the Incas because it lay undiscovered until 24th July, 1911.
Machu Picchu is actually the name of the tall mountain to the south of the ruins, and means ‘old peak'. This is in contrast to Huayna Picchu, the sugarloaf mountain to the north of the ruins, which means ‘young peak'.
Machu Picchu was built by the Incas during the 15th century but was mysteriously abandoned.
Archeologists believe that Machu Picchu was built, occupied and abandoned all within the space of about 100 years and it didn’t take very long for the jungle vegetation to completely reclaim the mountain and hide the existence of the city for hundreds of years.
The site was never looted by the Spanish, and it is therefore the best-preserved Inca complex in existence.

En compañia de nuestro amigo Shadi nos trasladamos hasta el concejo de Cudillero a esta preciosidad de playa para hacer amaneceres que es Gueirua.
Es una pequeña playa escondida, de dificil acceso, pero que brinda uno de los paisajes costeros mas bonitos que jamas haya visto que se encuantra en el pueblo de Santa Marina.
Espero sea de vuestro agrado

Our past molds the person we are. We cannot choose our family and their influence, but we can make the most of our circumstances in a positive light.
Family is weird thing. Some families are close, some have profound disagreements and rifts. Ultimately they are part of your life, even if only in the past tense.
Family dynamics are wrought with emotional drama and all the baggage that comes with it. Often if requires diplomacy of great magnitude to maintain some peace and stability, not unlike politics.
On my lap beautiful Queen with the big green eyes. She is part of my present joy!

Taken at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in the wing that has the Temple of Dendur, which is an Egyptian monument built ~ 15 BC. There is a reflecting pool in the room, and great glass walls, and always lots of people milling about.
Took lots of pictures that day! :-)
Hope everybody is doing great!
He was so happy to see the sunrise! It has been a very long time since I photographed Plankton! He was very miffed and uncooperative, but finally I got him to oblige. Even toys can't resist a good sunrise over the lake!
It has also been a long time since I posted a Toy on Thursday! *gasp* In fact ... the last time I posted was way back in January, and ... incidentally, that one was taken in Chicago too!
Happy Toy-in-the-Frame Thursday!!
...rebellion in the street...have a excellent weekend my friends, remember not to compromise on having fun :-)
We thought that this W.D. Hogan photograph was taken during the Irish Civil War. The title on our catalogue was: "A prayer vigil, during the Irish Civil War, possibly in London" - at least we were partly right!
It had been suggested that this was taken in London, because it was stamped on the back with "Photo by The Press Photographic Agency, Johnson's Court, Fleet St., E.C.4.". Have to admit I wasn't initially convinced about London, but am absolutely happy to say that I was entirely wrong...
Have a look through the comments below, to see how the location of Downing Street in London was established by our Fantastic Flickroonies, and hence an accurate date for this photo... So we've achieved two of our Triumvirate of Terrificness - Date established and Location identified. If we identify any of the people, I may faint away with happiness! :)
Date: Thursday, 14 July 1921 (at approximately 17:30)

Nomi comuni della ROSA CANINA:
*Rosa di macchia
*Rosa selvatica
*Rosa di bosco
Questa pianta deve il nome canina a Plinio il vecchio, che affermava che un soldato romano fu guarito dalla rabbia con un decotto di radici.
La Rosa Canina è una varietà di rosa selvatica, che può crescere spontaneamente nei boschi e nei dirupi. Fin dall'antichità è stata considerata un fiore dalla doppia valenza; da un lato, infatti, la Rosa Canina si caratterizza per la bellezza e soavità del profumo dei propri boccioli, dall'altro per il tronco ed i rami pieni di spine, piccole e appuntite, che rappresentano un ostacolo per chiunque si avvicini e desideri cogliere una rosa. Per questi motivi il significato attribuito al fiore è duplice: delicatezza e piacere ma la tempo stesso anche sofferenza e dolore fisico. Da non dimenticare sono poi le proprietà calmanti e rilassanti associate agli infusi ed estratti ricavati con i petali del fiore.

It’s great to finally post again! My new website has kept me very busy. So many photographers have amazing websites now. My new venture has been a surprising success so far, and if anyone is interested I would be happy to share what I have learned. I have a “My Blog” link on my website, where I will include steps I have taken to make the site work, including how I have been able to sell prints internationally. This was a nightmare at first; however I figured out a system for almost all sales.
The Shot: I scouted out The Marin Headlands Area to the north of San Francisco, for a spot where I could capture an image of the fireworks show, which was to be the finale of The Golden Gate Bridge 75th anniversary celebration. The Headland hills were littered with people wanting to witness the display, including many other photographers. I chose to set up on Wolfback Ridge, where I was joined by about 200 other excited individuals. This was a great spot and not bad at all for shooting the fireworks; however I soon realized that I was not set up at the best possible location to capture what I had envisioned.
While waiting for the show’s finale, I became captivated by the colorful little boats that had gathered in the harbor. I decided to attempt a 6-shot pano of the scene to include the boats, city skyline and the car light trail that snaked from The Golden Gate Bridge along Highway 101. While I kept my camera aperture setting at a constant f/8, I realized that I needed to adjust the shutter speed setting as I panned across the scene. Doing this would give me a better chance of maintaining even lighting throughout the sky.

The buttes of the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park are icons of the Wild West.
They have been the background of many movies such as John Ford’s Stagecoach with John Wayne and have had bit parts in Easy Rider, 2010 Space Odyssey, The Eiger Sanction and Forest Gump.
You will see vehicles on the road in the foreground. If you had looked a short while before this photo was taken, you would have seen my red Toyota proceeding in a cloud of dust along the road.
This is the view from the visitor's center.
I would like to return and spend much more time to see and capture the beauty of the park.
Not something I'd normally post, but two together, especially the diversity between the two GT-R's, was pretty different...
I'm not going to pretend that I really like GT-R's, because I don't. I once did, when they first came out a few years ago, but somehow they lost all 'coolness' to me. What do you think of the GT-R? Also, what year GTR's are these? I think that the white and red are 2011 and 2010, respectively. Correct me if I'm wrong though :P (probably!)
Anyway, I threw this up because I just saw it there, and wondered if anyone would be interested. I took this shot quite a while ago while on a group photo shoot with "MSCC". I've got some more cool stuff coming *soon*... :O
C&C appreciated!

Not even room for a little 'un on this packed day car in Sligo town. Destinations advertised outside Walsh's were Ballina, Bundoran, Enniskillen, Ballyshannon and Roscommon.
Thanks to John Spooner, we now know this photo was taken on Corcoran's Mall in Sligo and he found great info on Walsh's schedules from Slater's 1870 directory for Sligo:
"To BALLINA, from Corcoran's Mall, a Mail Car, every morning at fifty-five minutes past six, and a Van at halfpast two afternoon.
To BALLYSHANNON, from Corcoran's Mall, a Mail Car, every morning at six; also a Day Car at twenty minutes past two afternoon, during summer months only.
To ENNISKILLEN, Cars leave WALSH'S Office, Corcoran's Mall, every day (Sunday excepted) at seven in the morning." See comments below for how John worked out that the trip from Sligo to Ballyshannon worked out at an average of 6.75 mph!
Date: 1880s?

The Ultaran, being the decendants of Makaan, are firm believers that superiority over 'inferior races' is achieved through the construction of giant, powerfull war machines. The Ultaran Dreadnoughts are feared in every corner of the galaxy because their sniping power is immense. They deliver fantastic damage over great distances. However these ships lack the electronics to deliver that pain so far on their own. They require a couple scouts (housed within the ships docking bay) to 'target-paint' coordinates. Therefore, ironically, the immense power of these ships rely on the very fragile nature of the scouts.
------------------------------------
It's finally finished! This one is a bit bigger and more complex than what im used to, and required a couple BL orders of light grey bricks. Its inner structure is quite sturdy and the armor pannels are angled using many different techniques.
I will detail and compare the evolution of the ship through sketches and pictures at a later time. Inspired at first by Vaygr Battleships, i realize that it has more of a Sajuuk shape.

The New City Hall or New Town Hall in Hanover, Germany at night, is a city hall and was opened on July 20th, 1913, after having been under construction for 12 years.
It is a magnificent, castle-like building of the era of William II in eclectic style at the southern edge of the inner city (outside of the historic city center of Hanover).
The building is embedded in the 10 hectare Maschpark. The Old City Hall is no longer used as the main seat of administration, but houses businesses and the registry office.
also known as "tic-tac-toe" :)
apologies, I'm a little behind - I'll be catching up soon

This beautiful spring landscape is taken on the pathway leading out of my neighborhood and into Fish Creek, facing south and east.
When snapping this photo, I was about two steps beyond where the fence line ends and from here it is just pure, gorgeous nature pathways and trails for just about as long as you care to explore!

The tomb of Shah Rukn-e-Alam was built between 1320 and 1324, is an unmatched pre-Moghul masterpiece. The Mausoleum of Rukn-i-Alam could possibly be considered as the glory of Multan.
From whichever side the city is approached, the most prominent thing that can be seen from miles all around is a huge dome. This dome is the Shrine of the saint. The tomb is located on the southwest side of the Fort premises. This elegant building is an octagon, 51 feet 9 inches in diameter internally, with walls 41 feet 4 inches high and 13 feet 3 inches thick, supported at the angles by sloping towers. Over this is a smaller octagon 25 feet 8 inches, on the exterior side, and 26 feet 10 inches high, leaving a narrow passage all round the top of the lower storey for the Moazzan, or public caller to prayers. The whole is surmounted by a hemispherical dome of 58 feet external diameter. The total height of the building, including a plinth of 3 feet, is 100 feet. As it stands on the high ground, the total height above the road level is 150 feet.[4]
Besides its religious importance, the mausoleum is also of considerable archaeological value as its dome is reputed to be the second largest in the world. The mausoleum is built entirely of red brick, bounded with beams of shisham wood, which have now turned black after so many centuries. The whole of the exterior is elaborately ornamented with glazed tile panels, string-courses and battlements. Colors used are dark blue, azure, and white, contrasted with the deep red of the finely polished bricks.
