Berlin Television Tower was built during the years of the GDR, the iconic TV Tower is now a symbol of the entire city. Enjoy the stunning panoramic views from the viewing platform!.East Germany, though, has long been history. But the TV Tower is still drawing the crowds – and is ranked among the top sights in twenty-first century Germany. After German reunification, the TV Tower took on an entirely new significance. No longer just a symbol of East Germany, the TV Tower quickly became an integral element of Berlin’s new cityscape, and soon came to symbolise the city – both nationally and internationally.

A normal day in Dusseldorf, Germany. The view is amazing and the weather was great!

在清冷浦,到处都被高大的松树所围绕,即使是白天,也很难见到阳光。其中高30公尺并有600年树龄的观音松最为有名。而观音松树名的由来是当时被流放的端宗,满腹的凄楚却无人诉说,只好对着大树抒发而来。虽然清冷浦有着另人腕惜的历史但这的幽美景色还是吸引了很多的观光客前来。

Imagine in the clear cold Pu, everywhere surrounded by tall pine, even during the day, it is difficult to see the sun. Which is 30 meters high and 600 years old Guanyin Song is the most famous. The origin of the name of Guanyin pine was exiled Duanzong, full of desolate but no one to tell, had to express to the trees. Although Qinglupu has a history of the other hand, but this beautiful scenery or attract a lot of tourists to come.

Last time when I was at City Temple of Shanghai, I saw the lotus bloomed in such a beautiful colour and shape that I've never seen before in the pond that was in quite distance. I shot this image using my powerful zoom lens pushing to max. When I got home, I noticed that it was a deceit that I didn't notice on site. Perhaps I need to correct my cataract ASAP.

Hay que fotografiar con el corazón y narrar aquellas historias visuales que nos emocionan y nos importan.

The Angel Glacier is an extensive glacier which flows down the north face of Mount Edith Cavell in Jasper National Park, Canada. It is named as such because it has the appearance of an angel with out-swept wings. It was significantly larger when it was named in the 19th-century and is melting rapidly. It is not expected to maintain its shape, and will most likely disappear.

At the Macedonia Square, there is a stone bridge across the Vardar River in Skopje, you'll see a statue of a lady swimmer in a pose of jumping in the water and a feet sticking out from water.

If you spend any time in Zagreb, you’ll certainly find yourself on the city’s main square at one point or another. Trg bana Josipa Jelacica, as it’s officially called, was named after Ban Josip Jelacic, the chief government official presiding over what is now modern-day Croatia during Hapsburg rule. Though on paper he worked for the throne, Jelacic actually supported Croatian independence, so he’s largely regarded as a national hero in Croatia.

 

That’s why a huge, regal equestrian statue of him dominates the main square. Today, the statue mainly serves as a popular meeting point, but it’s worth noting that for years, the statue was something of a controversy. It originally pointed north, with his sword pointing toward Hungary – allegedly a symbolic gesture of commemorating his invasion of Hungary in 1848. Then, in 1947 the Communist regime removed the statue since it had become a symbol of Croatian nationalism. It wasn’t until after the fall of Yugoslavia in 1990 that the statue was returned to the square, this time facing south.

Te invento en mis sueños coloreados hacia el camino del horizonte

Saboreo la dulzura de las olas que se mezclan con el perfume del mar,

Abrazado con ternura, besando el sol, acariciado por la brisa,

Busco tu cuerpo y el elixir de tus besos …. Que no me besan…, si no en sueños.

 

Flores de colores adornan la arena que brilla en tu respirar, dorados y húmedos…. Brillos.

Playa enmarcando mi caminar, con las huellas y rumores, secretos apasionados,

Y abrazos tiernos como tus palabras cuando las suelo escuchar.

 

Que profundo y extenso es este mar que te viste a lo lejos siendo testigo de tu desnudez. Envidia que siento en poderte acariciar.

 

Invention in my dreams I colored the way to the horizon

I savor the sweetness of the waves mixed with the smell of the sea,

Embraced tenderly kissing the sun, caressed by the breeze,

Seeking your body and the elixir of your kisses .... Do not kiss me ... if not in dreams.

 

Colorful flowers adorn the sand that shines on your breathing, golden and moist .... Gloss.

Playa framing my walk with the traces and rumors, passionate secrets,

And hugs and your tender ground words when listening.

 

That deep and widespread this sea saw you away witnessing your nakedness. I feel envy in poderte cherish.

Taihei-kaku is a beautiful wooden bridge crossing over the pond at Shin-en Garden in Heian Jingu Shrine. This bridge is not just a bridge, but a very sophisticated wooden structure featuring a small tower in the middle. The roofed passageway has long benches for sitting while you are walking over the bridge. The garden was designed and created by Ueji VII in 1895. He used water from Biwako Canal built in the Meiji Period (1890), stones from the legs of old bridges built in the Tensho Period (1573-1592), and the entire Taihei-kaku Bridge which was granted to the shrine as an Imperial gift. The best time to visit here is during cherry blossoms season in early April, and in June to enjoy the iris and water lilies.

“南禪寺”是京都名剎之一,為臨濟宗南禪寺派的大本山,正式名稱為“瑞龍山 太平興國南禪禪寺”。現在仍可從巍峨聳立的三門樓上俯瞰京都。南禪寺因與德川幕關係密切得以重建和興隆,從樓上可以望見御所的結構,似乎蘊涵著某種意圖。

 

("Nanzen-ji Temple" is one of the famous temples in Kyoto. It is the head temple of the Nanzen-ji School of the Rinzai sect. Its official name is "Zuiryuzan Taipingxingguo Nanzen-zen Temple". You can still overlook Kyoto from the towering Sanmon Tower. Nanzen-ji Temple was rebuilt and prospered due to its close relationship with the Tokugawa shogunate. The structure of the Imperial Palace can be seen from the upper floor, which seems to imply some kind of intention.)

The Robin , a familiar sight in British gardens and parks is a small rounded bird with a distinctive red plumage on its breast. A firm favourite in our garden and a regular visitor to the wildflower meadow hide this little bird sometimes called the Robin Redbreast is embedded deep into British folklore, and has a strong association with winter life here and in particular the traditional British Christmas.

 

The Robin is a year round resident in the UK, but a small minority of female Robins migrate to southern Europe during winter, a few as far as Spain. Both the male and female feature similar plumage, both with the distinctive red breast. The male bird is extremely territorial and will aggressively defend his territory, attacking any similar sized birds that try to muscle in on their patch.

 

The adult European robin is 12cm long and weighs between 15 to 22 g with a wingspan of 20–22 cm . The male and female bear similar plumage; an orange breast and face lined by a bluish grey on the sides of the neck and chest. The upperparts are brownish, or olive-tinged in British birds, and the belly whitish, while the legs and feet are brown. The bill and eyes are black.

 

Juveniles are a spotted brown and white in colouration, with patches of orange gradually appearing. Male robins are noted for their highly aggressive territorial behaviour. They will fiercely attack other males and competitors that stray into their territories and have been observed attacking other small birds without apparent provocation. There are instances of robins attacking their own reflection. Territorial disputes sometimes lead to fatalities, accounting for up to 10% of adult robin deaths in some areas

 

The Robin is a member of the thrush family , a distant relative of the Blackbird and Nightingale.

 

In the 1960s, in a vote publicised by The Times, the robin was adopted as the unofficial national bird of the UK. The bird also is associated with several British sporting clubs including the professional football clubs Bristol City, Crewe Alexandra, Swindon Town, Cheltenham Town and Wrexham FC, as well as the English rugby league team Hull Kingston Rovers.

Inside the monument contains two floors. The first floor is known as the crypt and features eight statues representing fallen warriors in the form of massive medieval knights. These knights are joined by a number of other figures known as the Guards of the Dead. The second story, known as the Hall of Fame contains four more giant figures, each standing over 31 feet tall representing the four legendary historic qualities ascribed to the German people: bravery, faith, sacrifice, and fertility. If you continue up the stairs (over 500 of them), you will get a scenic view of Leipzig.

 

Un lugar con mucho misterio por su nombre...

Juego de elementos en un montaje para unir cielo, mar, pájaros y un bote a la deriva.

Es una sensación la conjunción de cosas que generan una atmósfera nueva, como un lienzo en blanco donde se plasma lo que el artista expresa.

 

A place with a lot of mystery by name ...

Set of mounting elements for joining Sky, sea, birds and a boat adrift.

It feels a combination of things that generate a new atmosphere, as a blank canvas where the artist expresses what he says.
