**Burke County Courthouse** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 80000980, date listed 9/18/1980
Courthouse Sq.
Waynesboro, GA (Burke County)
Date of Construction: 1857
Built of red brick covered with a red cement-looking mixture (gritty in texture) and scored to look like very perfect brick, this structure exemplifies an evolution of styles. The original courthouse is a carpenter Romanesque style with a round arched entry surmounted by tiny panes of glass in the transom. Above this, on the second floor, are arched triplet windows. A brick stringcourse encircles the building at the second floor level. Stone is used as a water table and as trim around the windows. At the roof line are square brackets. On the northwest corner, the Victorian clock tower rises in five stages culminating in a pyramidal cap and pedimented clocks. A street sign is actually affixed to the tower on the ground floor. A neo-classical annex was constructed at the rear of the building and joined to it by an open bridge on both levels in 1940.
The cement-looking finish that is scored to look like perfect brick is on the 1857 and 1900 portions of the building. This is not found on any other Georgia courthouse, but is on the Hay House in Macon, Georgia (A National Historic Landmark). (1)

A traveling circus arrived at the town of Deadpool. When children started vanishing, the townspeople turned their gaze on the circus performers. They were horrified to discover sick and twisted marionettes and other unspeakable acts. It's been said that people still hear the screams emanating from the abandoned carnival.

German WWII Tank
Panther Tank
The Panther was a response to the Soviet T34.
This tank was produced post-war under British supervision in Hanover from parts available. Chassis is a late model with the turret a recycled early model.

Paint job is anothe oddity - Bovington page says it's undercoat with added camoflage scheme from available paint.
Sources vary - possibly this paint job is a restoration oddity and not seen on the tank as produced.

"Yours may go fast, but mine can go anywhere."
To me, few vehicles look good in brown, but Jeeps are the exception. One of my cousins had one of these
when we were kids. The fact that I can still remember that 30 or so years later, means it made an impression on me.
I've been looking for a vehicle to do in brown, and since I'm not really happy with the TJ I did earier, I thought I'd give the Jeep another go.
Dear Lego, if you could go ahead and produce a 2x5 tile with clips in trans-blue, so we can have a 5-wide windscreen, that'd be great.

I'm sharing here on Flickr a (long) series of photos, taken in early August this year, during a short vacation in Calabria, at a holiday village located near a beach I've been frequenting with my family for several years now, during our short summer vacations. The setting, however, is very different from the beaches I normally frequent near my home in Taormina, with very crowded beaches and a sea that is also very popular with yachtsmen of all kinds. In this part of Calabria, the beaches are rarely crowded (except on weekends, but not too much). In short, it's a sort of almost tropical paradise, with very little yachting. Adjacent to the holiday village is a kitesurfing club, very popular with enthusiasts of this wonderful sport, which thrives on the sea and the wind. I photographed an 84-year-old kitesurfer, whose mettle is steely, still giving athletes much younger than him a run for their money. A friendly and sweet horsewoman from the nearby stables arrived unexpectedly in the beach village, accompanied by her father, both astride two magnificent colts. This created a moment of joy and curiosity for both the parents and their little ones, who were likely seeing these magnificent and docile animals up close and personal for the first time. Unexpectedly, a very special party broke out on the beach. Seeing it made me feel like I was no longer in Calabria, but rather transported to the other side of the globe, to the Hindu festival called Holi, with its throwing of colored powders (in India, this festival marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring, as well as symbolizing the victory of good over evil). I know it thanks to the evocative photographs often published on various photography websites.
I'll end by briefly mentioning the photographic technique I've often used in my photographs. I've created "blur" photographs—blurry, slightly blurry, and unfocused—at the time of shooting, simply by lengthening the exposure time and then also using some panning. Finally, I'd like to thank the sweet and beautiful models who posed for me, allowing me to further enhance this (long-winded) photographic story.

Propongo qui su Flickr, una (lunga) serie di foto, realizzate nei primi giorni di Agosto di quest’anno, durante una mia breve vacanza in Calabria, in un villaggio vacanze sito a ridosso di una spiaggia che oramai frequento insieme alla mia famiglia, durante le nostre brevi vacanze estive, da diversi anni, fotografie quindi aventi per tema la “beach photography”; purtuttavia l’ambientazione è molto diversa rispetto alle spiagge che frequento normalmente vicino casa mia a Taormina, con spiagge molto affollate, il mare anch’esso super frequentato da diportismo nautico di ogni tipo, in questa zona della Calabria le spiagge sono invece poco frequentate (tranne il fine settimana, ma neanche troppo), insomma, una specie di Paradiso quasi tropicale, con pochissime imbarcazioni. Adiacente al villaggio vacanze c’è un club di Kitesurf, molto frequentato da appassionati di questo meraviglioso sport, sport che si nutre di mare e di vento. Ho fotografato un kitesurfer di 84 anni, la cui tempra è di acciaio, che dà ancora molto filo da torcere ad atleti molto più giovani di lui. Nel villaggio a sorpresa è arrivata una simpatica e dolce cavallerizza proveniente dal vicino maneggio, con lei anche il suo papà, entrambi a cavallo di due magnifici puledri, creando un momento di allegria e curiosità, sia per i genitori, che per i loro piccoli, per i quali, molto probabilmente, era la prima volta che potevano vedere da vicino, e poterli anche toccare, questi magnifici e docili animali. A sorpresa, inaspettatamente, sulla spiaggia ha preso vita un party molto particolare, nel vederlo mi sembrava di non essere più in Calabria, ma di essere stato proiettato dall’altro lato del globo, in quella festa Indù chiamata Holi, con lancio di polveri colorate (in India questa festa segna la fine dell'inverno e l'arrivo della primavera, oltre a simboleggiare la vittoria del bene sul male), festa che conosco grazie a fotografie molto suggestive spesso pubblicate sui vari siti fotografici.
Termino accennando brevemente alla tecnica fotografica che ho spesso adottato nel realizzare le mie fotografie, ho realizzato al momento dello scatto fotografie del tipo “blur”, cioè mosse, un po’ confuse, non incise, ottenute allungando i tempi di esposizione. Infine ringrazio le dolcissime e belle modelle, che hanno voluto posare per me, consentendomi di rendere più grazioso questo mio (prolisso) racconto fotografico.

**Central Building, State Lunatic Asylum** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 78000960, date listed 7/20/1978
Broad St.
Milledgeville, GA (Baldwin County)
The Powell Building is significant because it was not only the world's first institution to jointly serve lunatics, idiots, and epileptics, but also continues in a similar capacity today by remaining the central focal point of Georgia's State mental hospital. With its antebellum facade relatively intact, it is a symbol of the State's continuing Involvement with the wellbeing of her citizens.
Contractor's proposals were advertised in early 1855 and work began later that year. The building was occupied during the summer of 1858. (1)

**Cooper, C. L., Building** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 85000684, date listed 3/22/1985
5B and Harrison
Eufaula, OK (McIntosh County)
The C.L. Cooper Building is historically significant because: (1) it is the only remaining commercial building associated with the black business district of Eufaula, Oklahoma and (2) its historic association with Dr. C.L. Cooper, the first and only black physician in Eufaula from ca. 1908 to mid-1930s.
Prior to statehood in 1907, approximately 8,000 blacks moved into Oklahoma and Indian Territories seeking homesteads. Moreover, the all-black towns in Oklahoma resulted in additional black migration. Three of the twenty-nine all-black towns were located in McIntosh County (Rentiesville, Vernon, and North Fork). The population of Eufaula has remained relatively stable hovering around 2,000-2,500 inhabitants from 1910 to present with roughly 15 percent of that total being black residents. (1)

Westminster, MD (Carroll County)
Westminster, in the piedmont region of Maryland, is centrally located in Carroll County, at the convergence of major transportation routes connecting to Pennsylvania, Washington, and Baltimore, now U.S. Route 140, and Maryland Routes 97, 32, 31, and 27. Geographically, the area consists of gently rolling hills of fertile soil. Westminster is situated on Parr's Ridge, a north-south oriented ridge that once served as the boundary between Baltimore and Frederick Counties. (1)
Carroll County was formed in 1837 from Baltimore and Frederick Counties by Constitutional amendment. The County was named for Charles Carroll of Carrollton (1737-1832), Revolutionary War statesman and a Maryland signer of Declaration of Independence. (2)

…………………………………………………………………
The late Pope Francis left us a memorable phrase, referring to the tragic events of our current history, he said "build bridges, not walls", and almost paraphrasing Pope Francis, here in Sicily we tear down walls, let me explain... there is a traditional religious festival, during which the wall of a house, always the same wall, is torn down, to then be built again in anticipation of the celebration that will be held in the new year. But it is not so much the wall itself, even more characteristic is the way in which this wall is broken down: it is struck over and over again with the arms of the float, those used by the bearers to hold the float, on which sits the statue of Saint James, an incredible tradition whose origins are not unanimous. Many, many years ago, I was perhaps 20 years old, walking with a few friends one evening along Corso Umberto in Taormina, I learned from one of them about this incredible tradition. I remember it as if it were yesterday. He said, “In Sicily, there is a celebration in which, during the procession, the float with the Saint, loaded with provola (cheeses), is used like a battering ram to break down the wall of a house, which is then rebuilt (the battering ram, a medieval assault weapon, used to break down gates and castle walls).” This year, I was able to witness (and photograph) this very particular and unique tradition, which is celebrated every year on July 26th in the town of Capizzi (Messina), a celebration that commemorates the transfer of the relics of Saint James from his sanctuary. As mentioned, the most characteristic moment of the celebration is the "rite of miracles": the float with Saint James on it is violently hurled against the wall of a house adjacent to the church of Sant'Antonio, and each impact against this wall is interpreted as "a miracle of Saint James". The number of blows needed to overcome the wall is interpreted sometimes positively (if the blows are even), sometimes negatively (if the blows are odd). The "Miracles of St. James" do not have a certain origin, some think it could originate in ancient times from the destruction of a small pagan temple, or a synagogue, someone else instead traces this tradition as a form of revenge of the inhabitants of Capizzi (Capitini), this because the relics of the Saint were stolen from Capizzi to be kept in the city of Messina, by the Spanish nobleman Sancho de Heredia, in obedience in 1435 towards Alfonso V of Aragon, nicknamed "the Magnanimous" (he was king of Aragon, Valencia, Sardinia, Majorca, Sicily, titular king of Jerusalem, Corsica and Hungary, he was count of Barcelona and of the Catalan counties, and from 1442 he would also become king of Naples), therefore the demolition of the wall would be a form of revenge towards what was perhaps the house of the nobleman Sancho de Heredia, finally someone else traces this tradition to a legendary event, which recalls the defeat of a handful of Saracens, who They had barricaded themselves in that place. Currently in Capizzi, in the Sanctuary of San Giacomo Maggiore, the oldest relic of Saint James the Apostle in Sicily is housed: a finger of the saint. Another characteristic aspect of the festival is the presence of numerous provola cheeses placed on the roof of the float. These are offered by the population to Saint James. The presence of these typical cheeses is indicative of the type of economy in Capizzi, primarily linked to agriculture and livestock farming, with significant dairy and pork production, particularly that of the Nebrodi black pig, with typical cheeses such as provola capitina and maiorchino. Some residents told me that sometimes the donations of provola cheeses, even large ones, become so abundant that the float ends up becoming exceptionally heavy, severely testing the bearers' ability to support all that weight.

Il compianto papa Francesco ci ha lasciato una memorabile frase, in riferimento alle tragiche vicende della nostra attuale storia, ha detto “costruite ponti, non muri”, e quasi parafrasando Papa Francesco, qui da noi in Sicilia i muri li abbattiamo, mi spiego meglio ….c’è una festa tradizionale religiosa, durante la quale il muro di una casa, sempre lo stesso muro, viene abbattuto, per poi venire costruito in attesa della festa che si terrà il nuovo anno, ma non è tanto il muro in se, ancor più caratteristico è il modo in cui questo muro viene sfondato: esso viene colpito più, e più volte con i bracci del fercolo, quelli che servono ai portatori per reggere la vara, sul quale siede la statua di San Giacomo, una incredibile tradizione sulle cui origini non c’è unanimità di pensiero. Io tanti, tanti anni fa, forse avevo 20 anni, passeggiando con pochi amici di sera sul Corso Umberto di Taormina, venni a sapere da uno di questi, di questa tradizione che ha dell’incredibile, lo ricordo come fosse ieri, disse “in Sicilia c’è una festa nella quale durante la processione, la vara con il Santo, carica di provole (formaggi) viene utilizzata come fosse un’ariete per sfondare il muro di una casa, che poi verrà ricostruito (l’ariete, arma medioevale d’assalto, utilizzata per sfondare portoni e muri dei castelli),”. Quest’anno, ho potuto assistere (e fotografare) questa tradizione così particolare ed unica, che si celebra ogni anno il 26 luglio nel paese di Capizzi (Messina), festa che commemora il trasferimento delle reliquie di San Giacomo dal suo Santuario, e, come anticipato, il momento più caratteristico della festa è il “rito dei miracoli”, la vara con sopra San Giacomo viene violentemente scagliata contro il muro di una una casa adiacente la chiesa di Sant'Antonio, ed ogni urto contro questo muro viene inteso come “un miracolo di San Giacomo”, il numero dei colpi necessari per avere la meglio sul muro viene interpretato ora in maniera positiva (se i colpi sono pari), ora in maniera negativa (se i colpi sono dispari). I “Miracoli di San Giacomo” non hanno una origine certa, qualcuno pensa possa originare anticamente dalla distruzione di un piccolo tempio pagano, od una sinagoga, qualcun altro invece fa risalire questa tradizione come una forma di rivalsa degli abitanti di Capizzi (Capitini), questo perché le reliquie del Santo furono sottratte a Capizzi per essere custodite nella città di Messina, da parte del nobile spagnolo Sancho de Heredia, in obbedienza nel 1435 verso Alfonso V d'Aragona, soprannominato "il Magnanimo" (era re di Aragona, Valencia, Sardegna, Maiorca, Sicilia, re titolare di Gerusalemme, Corsica e Ungheria, era conte di Barcellona e delle contee catalane, e dal 1442 sarebbe diventato anche re di Napoli), quindi l’abbattimento del muro sarebbe una forma di vendetta verso quella forse era la casa del nobile Sancho de Heredia, infine qualcun altro fa risalire questa tradizione ad un evento leggendario, che ricorda la sconfitta di un manipolo di saraceni, che si erano asserragliati in quel luogo. Attualmente a Capizzi, nel Santuario di San Giacomo Maggiore, si trova la più antica reliquia di San Giacomo Apostolo Maggiore che abbiamo in Sicilia, si tratta di un dito del Santo. Un altro aspetto caratteristico della festa, è la presenza di numerose provole messe sul tetto della vara, queste sono offerte dalla popolazione a San Giacomo, la presenza di questi tipici formaggi è indicativa del tipo di economia che c’è a Capizzi, principalmente legata all'agricoltura e alla pastorizia, con una importante produzione casearia e di carne suina, in particolare quella del maiale nero dei Nebrodi, con formaggi tipici, come la provola capitina e il maiorchino. Mi dicevano alcuni abitanti che a volte la donazione delle provole, anche di grosse dimensioni, diviene così abbondante, che la vara finisce con acquisire un peso eccezionale, mettendo a dura prova la capacità di reggere tutto quel peso da parte dei portatori.

I'm sharing here on Flickr a (long) series of photos, taken in early August this year, during a short vacation in Calabria, at a holiday village located near a beach I've been frequenting with my family for several years now, during our short summer vacations. The setting, however, is very different from the beaches I normally frequent near my home in Taormina, with very crowded beaches and a sea that is also very popular with yachtsmen of all kinds. In this part of Calabria, the beaches are rarely crowded (except on weekends, but not too much). In short, it's a sort of almost tropical paradise, with very little yachting. Adjacent to the holiday village is a kitesurfing club, very popular with enthusiasts of this wonderful sport, which thrives on the sea and the wind. I photographed an 84-year-old kitesurfer, whose mettle is steely, still giving athletes much younger than him a run for their money. A friendly and sweet horsewoman from the nearby stables arrived unexpectedly in the beach village, accompanied by her father, both astride two magnificent colts. This created a moment of joy and curiosity for both the parents and their little ones, who were likely seeing these magnificent and docile animals up close and personal for the first time. Unexpectedly, a very special party broke out on the beach. Seeing it made me feel like I was no longer in Calabria, but rather transported to the other side of the globe, to the Hindu festival called Holi, with its throwing of colored powders (in India, this festival marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring, as well as symbolizing the victory of good over evil). I know it thanks to the evocative photographs often published on various photography websites.
I'll end by briefly mentioning the photographic technique I've often used in my photographs. I've created "blur" photographs—blurry, slightly blurry, and unfocused—at the time of shooting, simply by lengthening the exposure time and then also using some panning. Finally, I'd like to thank the sweet and beautiful models who posed for me, allowing me to further enhance this (long-winded) photographic story.

A sorpresa, inaspettatamente, sulla spiaggia ha preso vita un party molto particolare, nel vederlo mi sembrava di non essere più in Calabria, ma di essere stato proiettato dall’altro lato del globo, in quella festa Indù chiamata Holi, con lancio di polveri colorate (in India questa festa segna la fine dell'inverno e l'arrivo della primavera, oltre a simboleggiare la vittoria del bene sul male), festa che conosco grazie a fotografie molto suggestive spesso pubblicate sui vari siti fotografici.

**Wheelock Academy** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 66000949, date listed 10/15/1966
E of Millerton on U.S. 70
Millerton, OK (McCurtain County)
A National Historic Landmark (www.nps.gov/subjects/nationalhistoriclandmarks/list-of-nh...).
Wheelock Academy is the archetype for the tribal school system established by the Five Civilized Tribes in Indian Territory. As the first national academy founded under the Choctaw Nation's Act of 1842, Wheelock set precedent for some 35 academies and seminaries maintained by the Five Tribes.
Wheelock Academy is still owned by the Choctaw and is administered by the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Though the school is no longer open, several residences are located nearby and the grounds are maintained by local Indians. The academy is located three miles east of Millerton, Oklahoma.
Wheelock began as a mission school, established in 1832 by Reverend Alfred Wright. A graduate of Williams College and Andover Theological Seminary, Wright was missionary to the Choctaws from 1853 until his death in 1889. He named the school after Eleazar Wheelock, founder of Moor's Indian School, later to become known as Dartmouth College. It was Wright who reduced the Choctaw language to writing and published some 60 books in that tongue. (1)
The Old Seminary (1883) constructed as the first of the buildings built after the destruction of the campus by fire. It is a two story structure with three wings. There is a tower which rises above the south facade. (1)

321 Park Ave.
Oklahoma City, OK (Oklahoma County)
The Oklahoma County Courthouse, built in 1936-37, is a thirteen-story building constructed of Indiana limestone. The stepped-back massing, bas-relief murals, and abstract floral/corn ornamentation executed in aluminum exemplify the Art Deco style. Sited alone on a landscaped block of downtown Oklahoma City's Civic Center, the courthouse is surrounded by modern high-rise and historic buildings, including the Municipal Building/City Hall, the Municipal Auditorium, the Center Theatre, and the Harbour Longmire Building (NR, 1980). The Oklahoma County Courthouse possesses an unusually high degree of architectural integrity. (1)

**Johnson County Courthouse** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 70000338, date listed 6/15/1970
Old Public Sq.
Warrensburg, MO (Johnson County)
The Old Johnson County Courthouse, under design and construction 1838-1841, has primary significance as one of the few surviving second quarter, nineteenth century, Federal style courthouses in Missouri. This significance is greatly enhanced by the fact that a high proportion of the original material is extant and the building is being restored. The courthouse has further significance as the scene of the somewhat unusual trial of Burden vs. Hornsby which occurred in 1869-1870.
The estimated cost of the building was $2,500, but the actual cost has been determined at $3 ,533.33. (1)

**Col Alto** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 89001925, date listed 11/19/1990
Nelson and Spottswood Dr.
Lexington, VA (Independent City)
Col Alto's stately Classical Revival house with its numerous additions and handsome grounds is one of several important early residences surrounding the historic community of Lexington and is significant as an example of the type of home favored by the region's leading families for over a century. The house is also significant for its associations with two of the area's most prominent citizens: James McDowell (1795-1851), for whom the house was built, and Henry St. George Tucker (1853-1932), whose family has a long tradition of distinguished service to the state and nation.
Completed in 1827, Col Alto's design is attributed to the local amateur architect, Samuel Reid McDowell, McDowell's first-cousin. James McDowell represented Rockbridge County in the Virginia General Assembly and served as governor from 1847 to 1849. In 1898 Col Alto was purchased by Henry St. George Tucker, dean of the Washington and Lee University law school and later acting president of the university. From 1921 until his death he represented the district in Congress. (1)

Broadway and Main Sts.
La Jara, CO (Conejos County)
The whistle stop railroad station, is a local example of the influence that Frank Wright, the American architect, was exerting on architectural thought. As an old railroad station, the style of design employed is somewhat unique. Many other stations utilized the more traditional and acceptable design motifs such as renaissance, romanesque, southwestern mission, Greek classical or chatesque revivals. Wrights's modern prairie style, as popularized by the famous Robie House of Chicago, lacked the historical perpective which was so often required for public buildings. It is unusual, to say the least, to have this kind of style employed for this 1911 building. (1)

**DeSoto National Memorial** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 66000078, date listed 10/15/1966
5 mi. W of Bradenton
Bradenton, FL (Manatee County)
The De Soto National Memorial commemorates the landing of Hernando De Soto in Florida in 1539. Locally called Shaw's Point, it was established by the United States De Soto Expedition Commission in 1939 as the general area in which De Soto disembarked. In 1948, the National Park Service acquired 30 acres of Shaw's Point to establish the De Soto National Memorial.
Although there is no agreement among reputable historians that the Point was the actual landfall of the De Soto expedition, it is generally accepted that Shaw's Point, situated at the mouth of the Manatee River, would have been a convenient landing place. De Soto himself made no reference to the landing point, but went on to describe the immediate wooded area as swampy and thick with vast and lofty forests.
Presently, the De Soto National Memorial encompasses 30 acres of landscaped area and tidal mangrove swamp. The swamp does not contain a "virgin" mangrove growth of 400+ years of replenishment; almost all growth is only 31-36 years old or less. The water's edge is naturally buttressed with different types of surface materials and a ridge of deposit shell atop the beach face. (1)

**Roosevelt County Courthouse** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 08001136, date listed 12/3/2008
100 W. 2nd St.
Portales, NM (Roosevelt County)
The Roosevelt County Courthouse occupies an entire block of the Original Townsite plat in the center of downtown Portales. The county’s earlier courthouse, constructed in 1903 when Roosevelt County was formed, previously occupied the same block. In order to accommodate citizens with county business, the grounds surrounding the new courthouse were reduced to permit parking and traffic circulation within the perimeter of the courthouse block. The remaining grounds are landscaped and include two small structures, a picnic gazebo and storage structure, and two objects, all dating within the last 25 years and considered non contributing for this nomination.
Shortly after its creation in 1903, Roosevelt County completed a two-story courthouse consisting of a frame construction with cement block walls. By the 1930s, many of the county's leaders felt that the building was inadequate, and in 1935 the county’s Board of Commissioners applied to the Public Works Administration (PWA) for a grant to construct a new courthouse and jail. Although voters initially rejected a bond issue that would have added county funds to the Public Work Administrations (PWA) grant, in 1937 they approved a larger bond issue, and architect Robert E. Merrell supplied plans for a new courthouse. In December 1937 construction began, at times employing as many as 60 workers, with the new courthouse completed in January 1939. Funded, in part, with a grant from the PWA and a project that created jobs for some of the unemployed in Roosevelt County, the building is a good example of a New Deal public works project. (1)

I'm sharing here on Flickr a (long) series of photos, taken in early August this year, during a short vacation in Calabria, at a holiday village located near a beach I've been frequenting with my family for several years now, during our short summer vacations. The setting, however, is very different from the beaches I normally frequent near my home in Taormina, with very crowded beaches and a sea that is also very popular with yachtsmen of all kinds. In this part of Calabria, the beaches are rarely crowded (except on weekends, but not too much). In short, it's a sort of almost tropical paradise, with very little yachting. Adjacent to the holiday village is a kitesurfing club, very popular with enthusiasts of this wonderful sport, which thrives on the sea and the wind. I photographed an 84-year-old kitesurfer, whose mettle is steely, still giving athletes much younger than him a run for their money. A friendly and sweet horsewoman from the nearby stables arrived unexpectedly in the beach village, accompanied by her father, both astride two magnificent colts. This created a moment of joy and curiosity for both the parents and their little ones, who were likely seeing these magnificent and docile animals up close and personal for the first time. Unexpectedly, a very special party broke out on the beach. Seeing it made me feel like I was no longer in Calabria, but rather transported to the other side of the globe, to the Hindu festival called Holi, with its throwing of colored powders (in India, this festival marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring, as well as symbolizing the victory of good over evil). I know it thanks to the evocative photographs often published on various photography websites.
I'll end by briefly mentioning the photographic technique I've often used in my photographs. I've created "blur" photographs—blurry, slightly blurry, and unfocused—at the time of shooting, simply by lengthening the exposure time and then also using some panning. Finally, I'd like to thank the sweet and beautiful models who posed for me, allowing me to further enhance this (long-winded) photographic story.

Propongo qui su Flickr, una (lunga) serie di foto, realizzate nei primi giorni di Agosto di quest’anno, durante una mia breve vacanza in Calabria, in un villaggio vacanze sito a ridosso di una spiaggia che oramai frequento insieme alla mia famiglia, durante le nostre brevi vacanze estive, da diversi anni, fotografie quindi aventi per tema la “beach photography”; purtuttavia l’ambientazione è molto diversa rispetto alle spiagge che frequento normalmente vicino casa mia a Taormina, con spiagge molto affollate, il mare anch’esso super frequentato da diportismo nautico di ogni tipo, in questa zona della Calabria le spiagge sono invece poco frequentate (tranne il fine settimana, ma neanche troppo), insomma, una specie di Paradiso quasi tropicale, con pochissime imbarcazioni. Adiacente al villaggio vacanze c’è un club di Kitesurf, molto frequentato da appassionati di questo meraviglioso sport, sport che si nutre di mare e di vento. Ho fotografato un kitesurfer di 84 anni, la cui tempra è di acciaio, che dà ancora molto filo da torcere ad atleti molto più giovani di lui. Nel villaggio a sorpresa è arrivata una simpatica e dolce cavallerizza proveniente dal vicino maneggio, con lei anche il suo papà, entrambi a cavallo di due magnifici puledri, creando un momento di allegria e curiosità, sia per i genitori, che per i loro piccoli, per i quali, molto probabilmente, era la prima volta che potevano vedere da vicino, e poterli anche toccare, questi magnifici e docili animali. A sorpresa, inaspettatamente, sulla spiaggia ha preso vita un party molto particolare, nel vederlo mi sembrava di non essere più in Calabria, ma di essere stato proiettato dall’altro lato del globo, in quella festa Indù chiamata Holi, con lancio di polveri colorate (in India questa festa segna la fine dell'inverno e l'arrivo della primavera, oltre a simboleggiare la vittoria del bene sul male), festa che conosco grazie a fotografie molto suggestive spesso pubblicate sui vari siti fotografici.
Termino accennando brevemente alla tecnica fotografica che ho spesso adottato nel realizzare le mie fotografie, ho realizzato al momento dello scatto fotografie del tipo “blur”, cioè mosse, un po’ confuse, non incise, ottenute allungando i tempi di esposizione. Infine ringrazio le dolcissime e belle modelle, che hanno voluto posare per me, consentendomi di rendere più grazioso questo mio (prolisso) racconto fotografico.

I'm sharing here on Flickr a (long) series of photos, taken in early August this year, during a short vacation in Calabria, at a holiday village located near a beach I've been frequenting with my family for several years now, during our short summer vacations. The setting, however, is very different from the beaches I normally frequent near my home in Taormina, with very crowded beaches and a sea that is also very popular with yachtsmen of all kinds. In this part of Calabria, the beaches are rarely crowded (except on weekends, but not too much). In short, it's a sort of almost tropical paradise, with very little yachting. Adjacent to the holiday village is a kitesurfing club, very popular with enthusiasts of this wonderful sport, which thrives on the sea and the wind. I photographed an 84-year-old kitesurfer, whose mettle is steely, still giving athletes much younger than him a run for their money. A friendly and sweet horsewoman from the nearby stables arrived unexpectedly in the beach village, accompanied by her father, both astride two magnificent colts. This created a moment of joy and curiosity for both the parents and their little ones, who were likely seeing these magnificent and docile animals up close and personal for the first time. Unexpectedly, a very special party broke out on the beach. Seeing it made me feel like I was no longer in Calabria, but rather transported to the other side of the globe, to the Hindu festival called Holi, with its throwing of colored powders (in India, this festival marks the end of winter and the arrival of spring, as well as symbolizing the victory of good over evil). I know it thanks to the evocative photographs often published on various photography websites.
I'll end by briefly mentioning the photographic technique I've often used in my photographs. I've created "blur" photographs—blurry, slightly blurry, and unfocused—at the time of shooting, simply by lengthening the exposure time and then also using some panning. Finally, I'd like to thank the sweet and beautiful models who posed for me, allowing me to further enhance this (long-winded) photographic story.

Propongo qui su Flickr, una (lunga) serie di foto, realizzate nei primi giorni di Agosto di quest’anno, durante una mia breve vacanza in Calabria, in un villaggio vacanze sito a ridosso di una spiaggia che oramai frequento insieme alla mia famiglia, durante le nostre brevi vacanze estive, da diversi anni, fotografie quindi aventi per tema la “beach photography”; purtuttavia l’ambientazione è molto diversa rispetto alle spiagge che frequento normalmente vicino casa mia a Taormina, con spiagge molto affollate, il mare anch’esso super frequentato da diportismo nautico di ogni tipo, in questa zona della Calabria le spiagge sono invece poco frequentate (tranne il fine settimana, ma neanche troppo), insomma, una specie di Paradiso quasi tropicale, con pochissime imbarcazioni. Adiacente al villaggio vacanze c’è un club di Kitesurf, molto frequentato da appassionati di questo meraviglioso sport, sport che si nutre di mare e di vento. Ho fotografato un kitesurfer di 84 anni, la cui tempra è di acciaio, che dà ancora molto filo da torcere ad atleti molto più giovani di lui. Nel villaggio a sorpresa è arrivata una simpatica e dolce cavallerizza proveniente dal vicino maneggio, con lei anche il suo papà, entrambi a cavallo di due magnifici puledri, creando un momento di allegria e curiosità, sia per i genitori, che per i loro piccoli, per i quali, molto probabilmente, era la prima volta che potevano vedere da vicino, e poterli anche toccare, questi magnifici e docili animali. A sorpresa, inaspettatamente, sulla spiaggia ha preso vita un party molto particolare, nel vederlo mi sembrava di non essere più in Calabria, ma di essere stato proiettato dall’altro lato del globo, in quella festa Indù chiamata Holi, con lancio di polveri colorate (in India questa festa segna la fine dell'inverno e l'arrivo della primavera, oltre a simboleggiare la vittoria del bene sul male), festa che conosco grazie a fotografie molto suggestive spesso pubblicate sui vari siti fotografici.

**Cottle County Courthouse Historic District** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 04000948, date listed 9/10/2004
Roughly bounded by N. 7th, N. 10th, Garrett and Easly Sts.
Paducah, TX (Cottle County)
The Cottle County Courthouse Historic District contains a high concentration of properties that represent significant aspects of the economic, physical, and architectural development of the city. With a spectacular Art Deco courthouse dominating the center of the square, the surrounding streets are lined with commercial buildings representing several phases in the economic and architectural development of the city. These commercial properties are typical of those found throughout the state and illustrate the development of commercial buildings from the early twentieth century to the Depression era.
Cottle County Courthouse 1930 contributing
The Cottle County Courthouse rises four stories within a rectangular mass at the core of the building from which projects a series of stepped building blocks. Although the courthouse is entered from all sides, the main fa9ade faces south. This main entrance features a large, stepped wing that projects from the central block and is framed by flanking, two story pavilions. A large arched window over the entry is flanked by stepped pylons serving almost as buttresses. From these pylons emerge two stylized figures representing justice and liberty. (pg 13) (1)
