Long exposure shot of Mary's Shell at sunset shot in autumn / fall 2015. Mary's shell is a steel sculpture / public art on Cleveleys beach near Blackpool in Lancashire, England. It was installed on 25 September 2013. It is entirely exposed at low tide you can climb inside. At high tide only the highest part of the sculpture is visible above the waves. The sculpture is 4.6m tall, 8 m long and weighs 16.5 tonnes and has words from the story "Sea Swallow" etched inside.
1950 Buick Super convertible car in Havana photographed on the last day of my holiday in Cuba. It was a hot sunny day and ideal for tourists taking a tour of Old Havana in these old american convertible cars.
I have loved his rough look from the day I met him. His name suits his looks - and if he wore clothes, it had to be denim...
Many thanks to David for suggesting the music, which of course must be ZZ Top's Rough boy. :)

A typical Danish Christmas Eve in my childhood home. Father has lit the candles, the doors have been opened and the family let in for the traditional dancing and singing around the Christmas tree.
Left to right: Myself disguised as "Yule man", sister Lene, neighbour and occasional nanny Marie, uncle Richard, eldest brother Elon and our father Frode. The picture was shot by brother Leon - and our mother Lily had probably found an excuse for not being on the photo... ;)

Enrico Berlinguer.
La morte a Padova
Dopo una legislatura da parlamentare europeo (eletto nel 1979 per le liste del PCI), in vista delle successive elezioni del 1984 Berlinguer si recò a Padova il 7 giugno, sul palco di Piazza della Frutta, dove svolse un comizio. Mentre si apprestava a pronunciare la frase "Compagni, lavorate tutti, casa per casa, strada per strada, azienda per azienda" venne colpito da un ictus. Si accasciò in diretta televisiva, terreo in volto e tuttavia, palesemente provato dal malore, continuò il discorso fino alla fine[46][47], nonostante anche la folla, dopo i cori di sostegno, urlasse: "Basta Enrico!". Alla fine del comizio rientrò in albergo dove si addormentò sul letto della sua stanza, entrando subito in coma. Dopo il consulto con un medico, venne trasportato all'ospedale Giustinianeo e ricoverato in condizioni drammatiche. Morì l'11 giugno, a causa di un'emorragia cerebrale. Il comunicato del sovrintendente sanitario affermò che il politico sardo era venuto a morire alle 12:45.Il Presidente della Repubblica Sandro Pertini, che si trovava già a Padova per ragioni di Stato, si recò in ospedale per constatare le condizioni di Berlinguer. Fece in tempo a entrare in stanza per vederlo e baciarlo sulla fronte. Poche ore dopo il decesso, si impose per trasportare la salma sull'aereo presidenziale, citando la frase: "Lo porto via come un amico fraterno, come un figlio, come un compagno di lotta". Commovente fu il suo saluto al funerale (13 giugno), al quale partecipò circa un milione di persone[48], dove si chinò con la testa sopra la bara, baciandola tra gli applausi dei presenti.[49] Sonori fischi, che ricambiavano quelli subiti da Berlinguer al congresso socialista, si levarono quando Nilde Iotti citò il presidente del consiglio Craxi.
Il corteo con la bara, accompagnato dalla musica dell'Adagio in sol minore di Remo Giazotto sfilò dalla sede del PCI, in via delle Botteghe Oscure, a piazza San Giovanni[50], rendendo così palese l'ammirazione che una larga parte dell'opinione pubblica italiana aveva nei suoi confronti. Persino il segretario del MSI Giorgio Almirante si recò a rendere omaggio al feretro dell'avversario, suscitando lo stupore della folla in coda per entrare nella camera ardente[51]. A ricevere Almirante fu Giancarlo Pajetta, al quale venne dato l'incarico di pronunciare l'orazione funebre di Berlinguer.
Il giorno delle elezioni europee, il 17 giugno 1984 il PCI, nonostante la scomparsa di Berlinguer, decise di lasciare il suo segretario capolista e chiese di votarlo in modo plebiscitario. Le elezioni, forse anche per gli eventi precedenti, decretarono la vittoria del PCI che, per la prima e unica volta nella storia, sorpassò seppur di poco la DC, affermandosi come primo partito italiano (33,3% contro il 33,0%): questo "sorpasso" è ricordato come dovuto all'"effetto Berlinguer". Precedentemente, con Berlinguer, il PCI nel 1976 aveva toccato il massimo storico dei suoi voti, col 34,4%.
Per decisione della famiglia, seguendo la volontà che avrebbe espresso alla moglie, Berlinguer è stato sepolto a Roma nel Cimitero di Prima Porta, nonostante il Partito desiderasse che fosse tumulato al Cimitero del Verano, nel Mausoleo dove riposano i grandi dirigenti comunisti Palmiro Togliatti, Giuseppe Di Vittorio, Luigi Longo, e dove nel 1999 fu sepolta anche Nilde Iotti.
Soprannominato subito "il più amato" (a differenza di Palmiro Togliatti che era "il migliore"), Berlinguer fu seguito alla guida del PCI da Alessandro Natta; il suo posto alla Camera dei Deputati fu preso dal sindaco di Marino, Lorenzo Ciocci.

Je suis venu plusieurs fois à cet endroit admirer de près la Roche de Solutré et je ne me lasse pas de cette vue spectaculaire.
Ce jour là, au coucher du soleil, la Roche et les vignes environnantes étaient illuminées de belles couleurs.

Rock at sunset
I went several times to this place closely admire Solutre'Rock and I don't get tired of this spectacular view.
On that day, at sunset, the Rock and the surrounding vineyards were illuminated with beautiful colors.
