Todos los años, durante el mes de Julio, se celebra en Igualada el "European Balloon Festival", una especie de homenaje a una ciudad de curiosa y sorprendente tradición aerófila.

Como ya había realizado alguna sesión fotográfica en el lugar desde el que despegan, quise variar el punto de vista y fotografiarlos desde las alturas, en la Tossa de Montbui.

Pero el día amaneció con una densa neblina veraniega, que amenazaba con imposibilitar cualquier intento de conseguir buenas tomas.

Poniendo en práctica aquella máxima de "cuando no puedas vencerle, únete a él", me propuse convertir la niebla y el intenso color dorado del amanecer en aliado en vez de enemigo y esperar el despegue de los globos pensando en cómo componer cuando llegase el momento.

Y el perfil de la montaña del Puig Aguilera como horizonte, la ciudad de Igualada despertando por debajo y el perfil siempre atractivo de la hilera imaginaria de aerostáticos ascendiendo hacia la luz, me ayudaron cuanto pudieron.

Common Buzzard [Buteo buteo]

 

Unseated from his (?) perch on this tall conifer, the buzzard took off, almost vertically, as we were driving past.

 

I love seeing these majestic creatures!

This capture was taken about halfway up to the top of the dunes.

Close up of a peak of Korengesan showing the transition of vegetation with altitude. Dakekanba birch and other shrubs are gradually replaced by shrubs of Haimatsu or Siberian dwarf pine along with the fading of autumn colour.

 

The altitude of the highest peak of Korengesan is 2,766m, which is above the forest limit of around 2,500 m in Kita Alps.

There is a controversy as to the definition of forest limit in Japan, which hinges on the categorisation of Siberian dwarf pine.

Haimatsu or Siberian dwarf pine is less than 1 m tall. If it is categorised as a tree, the forest limit would be pulled up to 3,000 m.

On my way back to the house I saw this and had to pull over...at a local cemetary. I've always believed that acsending rays were the angels ladders earthbound to help and save. Descending rays were ladders for lost souls to find there way home.

Inside the Abbott School in Castine, Maine.

 

Abbott School

Castine High School, 1927The stately Abbott School was built by the Castine School District in 1859, in the then-fashionable Italianate Style, to function as a high school. The building also served as the Eastern State Normal School from 1867 to 1873, and closed its educational doors in 1961. The building was privately owned for several decades, and on April 29, 1994, the Castine Historical Society signed the agreement for purchase of the building. In July of 1994, the Society, embarked on a three year campaign to raise $400,000 for the purchase and renovation of the Abbott School as the new home of the Society.

 

By December 31, 1994, renovations had begun, and the Abbott School’s grand opening as the home of the Castine Historical Society occurred on July 1, 1996. The building housed both exhibits and the administrative offices until 2015, when the administrative offices and archives moved to the newly restored Grindle House, located next door.

 

The ground floor is used for exhibitions devoted to the history of Castine which are open to the public without charge. Future plans call for expanded exhibition galleries to accommodate both permanent and changing exhibitions.

Petra Theater (Arabic: مسرح البتراء) is a first century AD Nabataean theatre situated 600 m from the centre of Petra. Substantial part of the theater was carved out of solid rock, while the scaena and exterior wall were constructed. The theater's auditorium consists of three horizontal sections of seats separated by passageways and seven stairways to ascend. The theater could accommodate a number of approximately 8500 people, more than the estimated number of Amman theater. Petra Theater follows similar architectural patterns of Roman theaters, which enhances superior acoustics
