Para esta semana mi idea era otra, mucho más compleja, pero, después de hacer la foto no me gustó. Y una vez más, como otras veces me ha pasado, me convencà de que las fotos más sencillas funcionan mejor. Asà que me fui con mi madre a dar un paseo y de paso cazar la hora azul y atraparla en un péndulo.
Looking east from the Summit Street Bridge over Interstate 670, the Kansas City Convention Center and the Pylons of Bartle Hall.
The Bartle Hall Pylons are four, approximately 335-foot, concrete and steel columunar structures that support steel cables that suspend Bartle Hall Convention Center above Truman Road and Interstate highway I-670 in Kansas City, Missouri, USA. The pylons are topped by four sculptures that are part of the city's skyline.
The scuptural elements that crown the Bartle Hall pylons, called "Sky Stations", were designed by artist R.M. Fischer in 1994. Each of the works is made of aluminum and steel, approximately 24-feet by 15-feet in diameter, and 20 to 25-feet in height. They were primarily inspired by the 1930s Art Deco chandelier and decorative design elements throughout Municipal Auditorium, which is adjacent to Bartle Hall.
The "Sky Stations" were placed atop each pillar via helicopter.

I arose at dawn just in time to see the Super Moon going down as the sun was coming up. The clouds in the sky added a bit more interest to the shot.
The carousel in the boulingrin garden (opposite the Casino) sparkles brightly during the blue hour, before nightfall.
Monte Carlo, Monaco.
Le carrousel du jardin du boulingrin (face au Casino) brille de mille feux durant l'heure bleue, avant la nuit.

"I have learned
To look on nature, not as in the hour
Of thoughtless youth: but hearing oftentimes
The still, sad music of humanity."

Die Willemsbrücke (niederländisch Willemsbrug) ist neben der Erasmusbrug und der Van Brienenoordbrug eine der drei großen Brücken Rotterdams, die über die Nieuwe Maas führen.
Es handelt sich um eine auf zwei großen Pylonen stehende, 356 Meter lange Schrägseilbrücke. Sie verbindet das Zentrum der Stadt mit der Insel Noordereiland.
Lange Zeit galt sie als „Golden Gate Bridge von Rotterdam“, was sowohl an ihrer roten Farbe lag als auch an der Tatsache, dass sie bis zum Bau der Erasmusbrücke die letzte Brücke vor der Mündung war.

Wer ausreichen Mut gefrühstückt hat, traut es sich zu, auf dem immer schmaler werdenden Mittelstreifen zu stehen (bzw, in bevorzugter Rafi-Position zu fotografieren ;-), während links und rechts der Verkehr - je nach Ampelphase - vorbei braust...
Für alle diejenigen, die genau hingeschaut haben: es bestand Gefahr, dass die Brücke - zwar langsam, aber doch unaufhaltsam kippt ;-)
Werner hat mir geholfen, sie gerade zu richten, herzlichen Dank - du hast möglicherweise Schlimmes verhindert ;-)))

I don't usually post 2 shots in one day. I took this last summer and I thought it was worth another look. I have felt it got ruined with noise so I tried to clean it up.
I couldn't believe this view after I came off the beach after photographing at sunset, and with this awesome full moon. As luck would have it though, sand from the beach jammed and broke my tripod so I worked hard to get this slow shutter blue hour shot free hand.
If this is a scrap though, I would be so grateful to hear opinions. Thanks so much my friends!! Happy Sunday!
Just an FYI, my work is photography. I don't do digital art. The moon in this shot is natural. There was a full moon on August 18 of last year in Rhode Island so I was just lucky enough to be there to see and photograph the show. So while I appreciate invitations to groups, digital art groups are not appropriate for my work. Thanks so much!

Castelvecchio bridge at dawn, literally seconds before the nighttime illumination was switched off in the morning, this photo is unfortunately the last one I have to upload from Verona city.
