......eccomi qui questo mese con un aggioramento un po' piu' misero ma rigorosamente a tema:
La Siena Grosseto!!!!! Dopo le poco rassicuranti notizie di questi giorni, a proposito di una grossa incertezza su una prossima riapertura, dopo lo stop forzato per danni all'infrastruttura dopo i nubifragi di un paio di lunedi' fa, posto 4 foto di questa stupenda linea con la speranza che le notizie relative a questo tratto di ferrovia siano a breve piu' che positive.
Una immagine di archivio e incredibilmente 3 immagini di qualche giorno prima del disastro idrogeologico che ha colpito la tratta....realizzate per puro caso in concomitanza di una mostra in zona Roccastrada.
La prima foto e' relativa al navettone Grosseto - Firenze, in transito al pl che si trova tra Roccastrada e Paganico, dove possiamo ancora assistere alla presenza della vecchia abitazione del custode dei passaggi a livello , ancora ben messa e perfettamente curata in una giornata temporalesca con cielo plumbeo ma con sole a illuminara la scena.
The Sultan Ahmet Mosque is a historic mosque in Istanbul, Turkey. The mosque is popularly known as the Blue Mosque for the blue tiles adorning the walls of its interior.

.La gare de Tokyo (東京駅, Tōkyō-eki?) est une gare située dans le quartier de Marunouchi de l'arrondissement de Chiyoda, à Tokyo, au Japon. La gare se situe près de Kōkyo, le palais impérial, et du quartier de Ginza. La gare est le terminus des Shinkansen à Tokyo.
Dessiné par l'architecte Kingo Tatsuno, la gare a été mise en service le 18 décembre 1914. Elle fût détruite lors des bombardements de Tokyo en mai 1945. Reconstruite en grande partie en 1947, elle fût entièrement restaurée en 2012. La gare de Tokyo est un bien culturel important du Japon depuis 2003.
Marunouchi is bordered on the east by Tokyo Station, one of Japan's busiest railway stations and the terminal of multiple shinkansen lines. The station building on the Marunouchi side is a prominent red brick building, which dates from 1914 and was recently renovated and reopened in its pre-war appearance. Besides travel service it offers a hotel, restaurants and an art gallery.

The first four floors feature over 70 stores selling mostly fashion and interior goods, while the top two floors contain restaurants and a rooftop garden with views out over Tokyo Station. The Tokyo Central Post Office is located on the ground floor with its facade preserved from the previous building.

The wedding of Courage and Opportunity arranged for you to be sitting right in front of me.
Overwhelmed by my good fortune these words aimed precisely at your heart did shamelessly dance from my lips, "that mark on your face accents your beauty."
Like a Touch-Me-Not you did shrink.
In one mighty fell swoop I had managed to embarrass, delight, and make love to you in front of everyone's unsuspecting eyes.
Your absolute "from ear to ear" smile was proof enough.
The gods of Circumstance and Timing granted my wish; lifting the veil from your eyes. My naked desire was now revealed to you.
Having overcome all my fears, I smiled and drifted away.
What the future holds for us is shrouded in mystery. I am just happy that I finally have your attention.
History will always echo over space and time that we have ever so gently touched.
New Urbanist communities, Rosemary Beach is an architectural treasure trove, boasting influences from the West Indies, New Orleans, Charleston and St. Augustine, among others.
The grand homes (many with adjoining carriage houses that are just as extraordinary) are interconnected by a discrete network of pedestrian paths and boardwalks, which become even more charming at night, basked in the soft flicker of gas-lit lanterns.
Like most Traditional Neighborhood Developments (TNDs), the best way to explore Rosemary Beach is on foot (or on a beach cruiser). Wood-plank pathways meander through the town’s striking architecture, often revealing hidden amenities such as playgrounds, bubbling fountains, tennis courts or one of the community’s several cosmopolitan swimming pools.
The Windy City is such an adventurous place to shoot after dark. I'm sure I have hardly scratched the surface of what this place has to offer. I'll keep scratching though.

About
This is my 6th upload from our trip to Paris last weekend.
Somebody left a comment on my previous shot of the Notre-Dame Cathedral telling me it went to number 1, no such luck, but I am real pleased with the 5th place in explore and a front page appearance of course !!! ;-)
This is the interior of the Sainte Chapelle church, a very small church very near to the Notre-Dame cathedral with a splendid interior.
I've taken this on a tripod, although that was not allowed, We've paid 2x7.5€ to get in, there wasn't a notice anywhere that warned us that the usage of a tripod was forbidden, not on the ticket sales office, not on the tickets themselves, not on the entrance, really nowhere.
So I was quite upset that from the moment I put my tripod down to take a shot a lady of security came running to me waving no signs at me, she went right back to her seat aswell, well away from the crowd to avoid a discussion I guess. I call this teft, be clear about your rules before we pay a whopping 15€ to get in. So I decided they could stuff it and watched an appropriate moment to hide between a group with guide and set my tripod up in the narrowest configuration that would allow it to stand.
What is your opinion on such practices ???
The shot
Standard 3 exposures HDR [-2,0,+2EV] in RAW/ISO100 at f/9.1 using the Sigma 10mm fisheye lens on a tripod.
Photomatix
Tonemapped using the detail enhancer.
Photoshop
° Small rotation and stretched horizontally to get it dead straight and to lose a bit of the fisheye deformation
° Clone stamped away the blue ribbon that is used to keep the tourist to get too close.
° Curves masked away on the darkest areas.
° Desaturation of the reds.
° Deepening the blues ( more saturation and less lightness ).
° A bit of dodging on the darker areas and on the highlights.
° A Smart sharpen filter.

...después de haber derrumbado en 1785 la antigua iglesia gótica, los Caballeros Teutónicos mandarosn construir el edificio clasicista con su imponente cúpula de 50 m de altura. Cuándo en 1809 la Orden fue disuelta, el acabado interior se quedó sin terminar. Fue concluido en 1095 después de que la iglesia de Sta. Elisabeta hubiera sido entregada a la parroquia católica. La cruz de la Orden Teutónica recuerda a los constructores de la iglesia......
