San Diego, California.
When the sun is setting and there is no marine layer to obstruct it, the light from the setting sun illuminates the highrise buildings in downtown San Diego. The reflecting warm colors of the setting sun contrast nicely with the blue hues of the sky and water.
This is another older photo that I reprocessed in Lightroom 4.4 and CS 6. This image was taken with my second DSLR - Nikon D200.

El Palacio Real de Olite, o Palacio de los Reyes de Navarra, o Castillo de Olite, es una construcción de carácter cortesano y militar que se construyó promovida por Carlos III "El Noble" y su esposa doña Leonor de Trastámara en el siglo XV. El Palacio es un complejo conjunto irregular de torres, estancias, galerías, jardines y patios inspirados en el estilo gótico francés, con algunas características catalano-mallorquinas e inglesas, que le confieren un aspecto anárquico, lo que no le resta encanto, ni majestuosidad y elegancia a su singular silueta que sobresale sobre el caserío de la ciudad. Fue una de las sedes de la Corte del Reino de Navarra, y estaba considerado uno de los castillos medievales más lujosos de Europa. En 1512, con la conquista de Navarra y su incorporación a la Corona de Castilla, empezó su paulatino deterioro, proceso que culminó con el incendio ordenado por el guerrillero Espoz y Mina durante la Guerra de la Independencia Española (1813) para evitar que se fortificaran las tropas francesas de Napoleón. En 1937 se inició su restauración (aún no finalizada) dirigida por los arquitectos José y Javier Yárnoz.

I shot this image yesterday morning after trying to get it a couple of times on Saturday and Sunday afternoons (you can see my Saturday attempt over on the photoblog). Although this was taken from public land, I suspect the John Hancock security folks will be unhappy since it shows the top corner of one of the doors to the building and, as far as I can tell, that means I'm a terrorist. I feel so much better knowing that we are surrounded by people who take our security seriously enough to hassle photographers.

Photo taken in Atlanta, GA. This is the Hurt Building built in 1913, one of the oldest skyscrapers in Atlanta. For more info, see this website - www.thehurtbuilding.com.
It is not just Tokyo Station, but the surrounding commercial facilities and a large in-station (ekinaka) shopping area below at the basement 1, makes the whole area like a satellite town.

One of my favourite photos from 2010 was taken from a simple point and shoot. For this reason i wanted to get the same shot by with a better camera, longer exposure and sharper details. I feel it was a good result.

I came for another look at this impressive circular building right in the heart of Oxford. It was quite busy with tourists when I arrived so I waited for a quieter moment. It is the principal reading room for the Bodleian Library. Dr John Radcliffe was Queen Anne’s medical advisor and his books are stored in this building. The library is not open to the public sadly.

This trip gave me the chance to see parts of the nations capitol that i have not yet seen. Our hotel was just a few blocks from the Capitol Building and the Congressional Library. We did a tour of the one and a self guided tour of the other.
The night before, we met my youngest daughter for dinner with her boyfriend, and his parents (who i have never met before). They live if Manassas and my daughter complains that i never visit her...because she has no kids to babysit for....just dogs!!! I chose a place for dinner on the recommendation of the concierge at the hotel, and used the GPS in my husbands phone to navigate the walk to it. The GPS took us a block too far, and corrected itself to make us take a right in the direction that we had just come from. i was puzzled, as this seemed to be walking in circles to get to the restaurant. When we turned the corner, there were a couple standing at the corner of the overpass, casually leaning on it.... and maybe 10-15 feet further up was a person....a young girl in her 20’s maybe...standing ON the overpass with one foot behind the railing and one foot in front of it................staring at the cars flying by on Route 395 below. straight down....staring and not flinching. i stopped dead in my tracks, my eyes wide as saucers, and quietly said “THIS looks not good at all”. My husband asked the couple that was there what was going on....they shrugged and just brushed it off as nothing. i was simply paralyzed. i could not walk past and NOT try to help. My husband said “Excuse me” a few times as we got closer and she did not budge....just stared at the passing cars below. Finally she turned her head to look at us. He asked if she was ok...her eyes stared back at us. empty and devoid of life....i have never seen eyes that looked like that. Absolutely no expression at all. i wanted to cry. she simply turned her head and began to stare at the traffic below again. i began to feel panic and started to trot to the corner to stop a police car or find someone to help us. My husband began dialing 911 as he tried talking to her, telling her to come down and we would try to help her. As i approached the corner, miraculously a patrol car rolled up to the light...i ran to it and when he saw me coming to tap his window he rolled it down to help me. I told him there was a girl poised on the bridge as tho to jump. his response was “You are shi^^ing me!” I was too afraid to even laugh!! i showed him where she was and told him to PLEASE HURRY.
A few people also out walking had strolled by and never stopped to help....but when they got to me they asked if i had spoken to the police....they said someone was talking to her trying to convince her to come down....i told her i knew that...and yes i had gotten the police to go there. We turned in time to see the police officer approach her quietly and say something and at just the right moment, grab her and take her to the sidewalk. i was never so relieved in my whole life. Within 3 minutes there were at least 5 other officers, in police cars, several on foot and on segways or bikes there to assist....oh...and a fire engine!!! we were detained to give a statement.
It has bothered me so much that i did not ask to speak to her as she sat on the ground....those eyes, so vacant have haunted me since then, and i regret not sitting on the sidewalk and just telling her that she was a valuable person with so much to live for, if she would just begin to believe that. She needed something to cling to....i feel like she needed just a tiny speck of kindness and hope. i still feel a twinge in my heart that i could have done more.... i have said a prayer that she will get help...and that the fact that i stopped to try to help might make her see that SOMEONE thought she was valuable enough to do that.
I honestly believe that there is no such thing as coincidence and that this glitch in the GPS was meant to happen....a God Wink, if you will. i hope that i passed the test....altho i still so wish i had asked to speak to her for just a moment. Just in case i could have put a spark back into her eyes.
El órgano barroco es otro elemento destacable. Fue construido entre los años 1771 y 1773, con dos teclados, veinticuatro registros y tres fuelles, y la caja la realizó José de Incera y Juan Antonio Herrera. Tiene siete calles de tubos y trompetería –que cuando suenan llenan por completo el templo– adornadas con guirnaldas y medallones de rocalla. Está dorado y los fondos presentan tonos azules y rojos.
La Iglesia de la Asunción del El Barco de Ávila, originalmente levantada en el siglo XII, fue reformada profundamente en el siglo XIV y es uno de los mejores ejemplos del gótico abulense. Se trata de un voluminoso templo de fábrica berroqueña de tres naves de igual altura y diferente anchura unidas a una cabecera de tres ábsides poligonales cuyos vértices están reforzados por contrafuertes escalonados. Sin transepto, posee tres puertas, torre campanario y espadaña. El ábside está coronado por la espadaña del “reloj suelto”. Las tres naves muestran bóvedas de crucería que apoyan en pilares cruciformes con columnas adosadas.
El Barco de Ávila es un municipio de 2.652 habitantes (censo 2014) situado en la provincia de Ávila, comunidad autónoma de Castilla y León (España), a los pies de la Sierra de Gredos. Declarado Conjunto Histórico-Artístico, es la puerta abierta a los pueblos del Alto Tormes y El Aravalle, a sus paisajes y a todas las posibilidades de ocio que ofrecen en contacto con la naturaleza. Conserva tres monumentos medievales de relevancia: el castillo de Valdecorneja (siglo XV), el puente medieval (Puente Viejo o Puente Románico) del siglo XIII y la iglesia gótica de la Asunción (siglo XIV).
