The General Assembly is coming up or being thrust upon New York City. So I figured, I would share this picture I took of the United Nations complex, as seen from Hunters Point.
Red Industrial Buildings. Mare Island Naval Ship Yard, Vallejo, California. April 5, 2014. © Copyright 2014 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
Red industrial buildings, one of brick and the other of painted metal, at the historic Mare Island Naval Ship Yard
Almost all of my photographs of the historic Mare Island Naval Ship Yard near Vallejo, California were made at night. This has been my primary and frequent subject for night photography over a period of about a decade. I typically show up there at the very end of the day and go straight to the locations where I'll shoot in darkness, and most often I don't even really look for photographs much when there is light. There have been a few exceptions, mostly when I have arrived a bit early. I have a few golden hour photographs from the upper end of the island where there are a number of very dilapidated old buildings, and a few years ago I once photographed one of the industrial streets at sunset.
This time I was there with my friends from the San Francisco Bay Area night photography group, The Nocturnes, who were gathering for an "alumni night" event. Since daylight savings had begun recently, it seemed like our schedule was off a bit, and we had finished all of the pre-night-photography events an hour before sunset! So I went out with camera and tripod and made a few photographs of non-night subjects. Many areas on the island seem a bit plain in daylight once you have seen their appearance under the varied illumination found here at night. The night light can turn a boring tan building into a structure of bright yellow or green, with shadows playing over its surface. I decided to look mostly for textures, shape, and color as I walked around in the brighter light, and these buildings, with their combination of metal and brick walls, red colors from bricks and peeling paint, and angles of roof lines seemed like an interesting subject.

Kanematsu Building looks like 4 legs robot. Ceiling height 8.0m is to ensure wide entrance hall.
Adding, shooting long exposure, there are car light trail and stars. :)
めっちゃ気になっていた兼松ビル。重厚な四足ロボットのような形状がイケています。ここは本社ではなかったんですね。いい角度がなかったので、星と車の光跡を一緒に撮りました(^^;)
he Basilica of Saint Mary Above Minerva (Latin: Basilica Sanctae Mariae supra Minervam, Italian: Basilica di Santa Maria sopra Minerva) is a titular minor basilica and one of the most important churches of the Roman Catholic Dominican order in Rome, Italy. The church, located in the Piazza della Minerva in the Campus Martius region, is considered the only Gothic church in Rome. It houses the tombs of the St. Catherine of Siena and the Dominican painter Fra Angelico. The father of modern astronomy Galileo Galilei, after tried for heresy in the adjoining monastery, abjured his scientific theses in the church on the 22nd of June 1633.
The basilica gets its name because, like many early Christian basilicas, it was built directly over (sopra) the foundations of a temple dedicated to the Egyptian goddess Isis, but erroneously assimilated to Minerva. Behind a self-effacing facade, its arched vaulting is painted with brilliant red ribbing, and blue with gilded stars, a 19th century restoration in the Gothic taste. The basilica is located on the small piazza Minerva close to the Pantheon, in the rione Pigna.

De Basilica Santa Maria sopra Minerva (Ned.:Basiliek van de heilige maagd, gebouwd over de tempel van Minerva) is een basiliek in Rome. De kerk is de titelkerk van de Britse kardinaal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor.
De kerk is gebouwd op het Piazza Minerva op het Marsveld, vlakbij het Pantheon. De Santa Maria sopra Minerva wordt beschouwd als de enige gotische kerk in de stad, de voorgevel stamt echter uit de Renaissance.
De kerk werd oorspronkelijk in de 8e eeuw gebouwd door Griekse monniken over de resten van de een antiek bouwwerk waarvan met dacht dat dit de Tempel van Minerva Chalcidica was, die rond 50 v.Chr. door Pompeius Magnus was gebouwd. In werkelijkheid stond de Tempel van Minerva 200 meter verderop is de kerk gebouwd over een deel van de Saepta Julia. Mogelijk staat de kerk ook deels op de fundamenten van de Tempel van Isis en Serapis die ook in deze buurt stond. In de tuin van het bijbehorende klooster werd namelijk in 1655 een Egyptische obelisk opgegraven die ooit in deze tempel heeft gestaan.
The hotel is surrounded by rice fields completely. No rice-planting in this year because the site is development now.

The ruins of what was once the second largest hat maker in the north east. Later the buildings were expanded and it became a fabric recycling plant. It now sits empty by Madam Brett Park in Beacon, NY.
西新宿の高層ビルの中では三井ビルがお気に入り。なんたって横のバッテンデザインのセンスが抜群ですよね。

The one of the three ex-First Hampshire Eclipse-branded Volvo B7RLE that I had yet to photograph... until now.

this is wudaokou. i spend a lot of time here. i think that when i return to the states, and think of beijing, i will think of this area first. this place is my second home.
best viewed large, by the way. actually, if you feel like waiting, i'd suggest the original, even though it's a bit grainy. you can get a pretty good look onto the street, read street signs, etc. there are actually a lot of people in this photo, which isn't evident from this size.
Das Schloss Freudenberg in der hessischen Landeshauptstadt Wiesbaden, Stadtteil Dotzheim ist seit 1993 ein Erfahrungsfeld zur Entfaltung der Sinne und des Denkens.
Geschichte
Das Schloss wurde 1904 vom Architekten Paul Schultze-Naumburg als Palais inmitten eines Parks errichtet. Auftraggeber waren der Maler James Pitcairn-Knowles (1863–1954) und Marie Eugénie Victoria Guérinet (1870–1959). Das Paar bewohnte das Schloss nur drei Jahre lang bis 1908. Danach hatte es bis 1984 insgesamt vierzehn verschiedene Hauptnutzer. Einige Nutzer ließen sich ermitteln:
Um 1920 richtete der Landkreis Essen ein Kinderheim ein, das später von der Stadt Essen übernommen wurde. Der Betrieb endete 1931.
Während der Zeit der Nationalsozialisten wurde Schloss Freudenberg erst als „Kinderheim Taunusblick“, und dann von der NS-Frauenschaft Essen als Mütterheim genutzt und gehörte zum Lebensborn e.V., um durch Nationalsozialistische Rassenhygiene und Gesundheitsideologie die Erhöhung der Geburtenrate „arischer“ Kinder auch aus außerehelichen Beziehungen herbeizuführen.
Nach 1945 bis in die 70er Jahre betrieb die US-Armee für die nahegelegene Kaserne Camp Pieri in dem Schloss ein Offizierskasino. Danach nutzte die amerikanische Pfingstgemeinde das Gebäude.
1973 übergab die US-Armee das Schloss an die Bundesvermögensverwaltung. Das Gebäude befand sich in einem extrem sanierungsbedürftigen Zustand.
1993 konnte die Gesellschaft Natur & Kunst gemeinnütziger e.V aufgrund einer Initiative von Matthias Schenk und Beatrice Dastis Schenk das Schloss sowie den Park übernehmen, um eine inzwischen außergewöhnliche Sanierung des Gebäudes zu beginnen. Es ist ein Sanierungsprojekt, das bis 2030 dauern soll.
Leitsatz
Zu Beginn der Gebäudesanierung im Jahr 1994 hat Emil Hädler, Professor an der Fachhochschule Mainz und Experte für Altbauinstandhaltung, den Leitsatz Sanierung = Heilung durch Kunst formuliert. Dieser Leitsatz, die heilende Wirkung der Kunst einzubeziehen, ist inzwischen zu einem Modell auch für andere Projekte geworden.
Ein weiterer Leitsatz ist in einer Verknüpfung von Sanierung und gleichzeitiger Nutzung der vorhandenen Ressourcen zu sehen. Im traditionellen Sanierungskonzept wird eine Gebäudenutzung für die Zeit der Maßnahmen komplett eingestellt oder nur unter erschwerten Bedingungen fortgeführt. Im Schloss Freudenberg dagegen laufen Nutzung und Sanierung kontinuierlich parallel, so dass hieraus ein Erfahrungsfeld eigener Art entstanden ist: ein sich ständig änderndes Provisorium eröffnet jeweils neue Möglichkeiten der Wahrnehmung.

Finally arriving at its nest behind a lot a small branches with its stick after flying all the past the other nests. Mom looked a bit alarmed on the nest when he arrived. :-)
Great Blue Heron rookery active again this year, about 14-15 nests. About 125 yards from the road, about 75 feet high and only a small window to shoot through the trees between us. Only there a short time, extremely windy and got overcast so detail and exposure off on many. Will be going back check on them from time to time.
Local wedding venue. I was headed to the house and noticed the clouds when I passed this place. Turned the car around and came back. Began searching for someone to ask permission to take a picture. Nary a soul to be found. This is a shot from the backside that I have never been to before. My wife called me when I was standing in the grass taking this to see why I wasn't home yet. It kinda cut short my little daydream. This is a cool old house and must be a great place to get hitched.
