"This handsome pile of masonry occupies a block in the center of Olympia, fronted by a small park occupying a city block. It is however to be succeeded by a magnificent group of capitol buildings, well worthy the progressive commonwealth of Washington, at Capitol Place, facing Budd's Inlet, with only the outlook covering portions of Puget Sound and the serrated Cascades."

Das Schloss Oberhofen ist ein Schloss in der Gemeinde Oberhofen am T.hunersee im
Berner Oberland im Kanton Bern in der Schweiz.
.
.
.
Es gehörte einst Walter IV. von E.schenbach, der 1308 zusammen mit weiteren
Verschwörern König Albrecht von H.absburg ermordete.
.
.
Der Bergfried stammt aus dem 12. Jahrhundert, der Palas mit der K.apelle aus dem
15. Jahrhundert.
Im 14. Jahrhundert gelangte das Schloss an die H.absburger und wurde nach der
S.chlacht bei S.empach von bernischen Truppen besetzt.
Die Burg und die dazugehörende Herrschaft gingen zuerst an die Familie von
S.charnachtal und danach an andere bernische Patriziergeschlechter über.
1652 bis 1798 war das Schloss Sitz eines bernischen Landvogts und gelangte 1801
in P.rivatbesitz.
1954 wurde hier eine Z.weigstelle des H.istorischen M.useums B.ern eröffnet.

Der Thunersee ist ein Alpensee im Berner Oberland am nördlichen Alpenrand im Kanton Bern
der Schweiz.
.
.
.
Der See ist 17,5 km lang und max. 3,5 km breit. Seine F.läche beträgt 48,3 km² (er ist damit
der grösste ganz in einem Kanton Bern liegende See ), die maximale Tiefe 217 m.

G.eographie und G.eschichte

An seinem nördlichen A.usfluss, der A.are, liegt die namengebende S.tadt T.hun.
Nach der letzten E.iszeit bildete sich dort, wo heute zwei Seen liegen, der so genannte
Wendelsee. Durch A.blagerungen von G.eschiebe der verschiedenen B.ergbäche (vor allem
durch den L.ombach und die L.ütschine) bildete sich ungefähr in der M.itte des Sees eine
E.bene, das „B.ödeli“, auf der heute die G.emeinden I.nterlaken, M.atten und U.nterseen
liegen. Diese S.chwemmebene teilte den See in den Thuner- und den B.rienzersee.
.
.
Bei Normalwasserstand liegt der Seespiegel auf 558m. Der Thunersee hat ein E.inzugsgebiet
von 2500 km². Bei längeren, starken N.iederschlägen kann er über die U.fer treten, da die
A.bflusskapazität der A.are nur beschränkt ist.
Diese wichtige Staufunktion des Thunersees erspart der tiefergelegen S.tadt B.ern
einige Ü.berschwemmungen, führt in T.hun hingegen hin und wieder zu Problemen.
Der maximale A.bfluss beträgt 345 m³ pro Sekunde, der mittlere A.bfluss liegt bei 110 m³/s.
Sein H.auptzufluss, die A.are, wird im S.üdosten vom 6 Meter höhergelegenen B.rienzersee
gespeist.

Von der F.ischerei im Thunersee leben mehrere B.erufsfischer. Im Jahr 2.0.0.1 betrug ihr
G.esamtertrag 53'048 Kilogramm.
Seit 1.8.3.5 gibt es auf dem See eine P.assagierschifffahrt. Heute betreibt die B.L.S A.G eine
F.lotte von zehn S.chiffen, darunter der h.istorische S.chaufelraddampfer B.lümlisalp sowie
von 2.0.0.1 bis 2.0.0.3 das weit über die R.egion hinaus bekannte D.rachenschiff (umgebautes
M.otorschiff S.tadt T.hun).
An den U.fern des Thunersees wird in den G.emeinden T.hun, S.piez, O.berhofen und
H.ilterfingen W.einbau betrieben. Weisse S.orten sind M üller - T.hurgau und C.hardonnay,
rote Sorten sind G.aranoir und P.inot N.oir. Das R.ebbaugebiet Thunersee besitzt seit dem
1. J.anuar 2.0.0.8 den gesetzlichen Status einer A.OC.
Die R.üstungsbetriebe des B.undes versenkten nach dem 2. W.eltkrieg rund 3000 T.onnen
M.unition und M.unitionsbestandteile im Thunersee, da dies als sicherer und günstiger
Entsorgungsweg galt. Zurzeit ( 2.0.0.7 ) läuft ein Untersuchungsprogramm, das die
V.erschmutzung des Sees durch den M.unitionsinhalt und die B.ergungsmöglichkeiten
abklärt.

From the website;
Feldkirch is a medieval city in the western Austrian state of Vorarlberg on the border with Switzerland and Liechtenstein. It is the administrative center of the district Feldkirch.
This branck of TFB has invested in a complete change to their once modern building. Located in the heart of Phuket Old Town just opposite the On On Hotel (Phuket's oldest hotel) the new facade fits in perfectly with the historic buildings dating back over 100 years to the era of tin mining and the birth of Phuket Town
Built in the 1950s, houses ceramics, photo, packaging and many other subjects I can not recall right now.

This reminds me of 1501 Seminole, though it looks more substantial because of the tile roof set against the stucco wall cladding.

Chatsworth House aka Pemberley from Pride and Prejudice. This was our last day trip in England... so sad that my study abroad is over now.
We recently had a week’s holiday to take – Jayne’s job dictates my holidays – we went through the usual process of leaving it late and then desperately selecting a shortlist of cities where we thought the weather might be ok, after a reasonably short flight and we can fly from the north of England. Budapest was the chosen destination.
Budapest is touted as possibly the most beautiful city in Europe and we had a stream of people tell us that it was fantastic. It is. I was looking forward to getting there, no agenda other than walking, photographing the sights and trying to get off the beaten track. We certainly walked – over 70 miles – I photographed it ( I’m a bit embarrassed to say how many shots but it was a lot ) but I’m not sure we got off the beaten track as much as I wanted to.
We flew over Eastern England (and home actually – a first for us) and out over Europe. It was a late afternoon flight on a stunning day, one of the more interesting flights I’ve had. I was glued to the window watching the world go by, wondering about all of lives being played out beneath us. It was dark when we arrived. We were staying on the Buda or Castle Hill side of the city. What we didn’t know was, we were staying in one of the most prominent hotels in the city, sat on the hilltop overlooking Budapest. The Hilton sits on an historic sight and features in every photo taken of the Castle District from Pest. We had time to get out before bedtime and photograph the Matthias Church next door – floodlit – like all of the major buildings in Budapest.
Unfortunately after leaving the best weather of the year in the UK, Budapest was forecast to be a bit dull and cool – not what we wanted. There was occasional sun over the first two days but it was generally grey. Now I have to admit, I let the dullness get me down, I took photos because I wasn’t sure how the week would unfold but I was fairly sure that I was wasting my time. The photos would be disappointing and if it was sunny later we would have to revisit all of the famous landmarks again to get something that I was happy with. This is essentially what happened. The next four days were gorgeous and we did revisit, more than once all of the places that we walked to in the first two days. This meant that we didn’t have the time to go “off piste” or venture further afield as much later in the week.
The sun was rising before seven and we were staying in the best location for watching it rise. By day three I was getting up at 6.00 (5.00 our time) and getting out there with my gear. By day four I was using filters and tripod, not something I usually bother with despite always having this gear with me, and dragging it miles in my backpack. One morning I was joined by a large and noisy party of Japanese photographers, they appeared to have a model with them who danced around the walls of the Fisherman’s Bastion being photographed. Once the orange circle started to appear above the city they started clicking at the horizon like machine guns. We all got on well though and said goodbye as we headed off for breakfast – still only 7.15am.
By 8.00am everyday we were out on foot wandering along the top of Castle Hill wondering where to go that day. We tend to discover the sights as we walk on a city break, frequently discovering things as we head for a distant park or building and research it afterwards with a glass of wine. It works for us. We walked out to Heroes’ Square and beyond, returning by less well known streets. We walked along the Danube to Rákóczi Bridge a couple of times then back into Pest using a different route. Having been under the thumb of Russia for so long and considering its turbulent past there are lots of large Russian style monuments, tributes to great struggles, or the working man – very socialist and very much like Prague in a lot of respects. The Railway stations were also very similar to Prague, you could walk across the tracks and no one bothered. In the main station, now famed for the migrant crisis a few weeks previously, there was a mixture of very new and very old rolling stock from the surrounding countries, all very interesting. Considering that this station is the first thing some visitors to the city will see it is an appalling state. One side of the exterior is shored up and fenced off. This contrasts with the expensive renovation work that has been well executed in the city centre. It really is like stepping into the past when you enter the station building. It all seems to work efficiently though, unlike the UK.
Transport in Budapest is fascinating. Trams everywhere, trolley buses, ancient and new, bendybuses, again, very old and very new, the underground metro, yellow taxis in enormous numbers and of course the river and boats. This never ending eclectic mix seems to operate like clockwork with people moved around in vast numbers seamlessly. The trams looked packed at any time of day. Anyone dealing with tourists seemed to speak very good English, which is just as well as we didn’t have any grasp of Hungarian. Cost wise it was a very economical week for us in a capital city.
Once the weather (or light, to be precise) improved, I cheered up and really enjoyed Budapest. A common comment after visiting is that , although you’ve “done Budapest” you wouldn’t hesitate to go back, which isn’t always the case after a city visit. As ever, I now have a lot of work to do to produce a competent album of work. I think I will end up discarding a lot of the early days material – but then again, I’m not renowned for my discarding skills.
Thank you for looking.
Closed in 2003, Medfield State Hospital was used to film Shutter Island, directed by Martin Scorsese. In my opinion, along with others, it is one of many films that is underrated. Spread across 900 acres this hospital was used for psychiatric rehabilitation. Built in 1892, it included 58 buildings and had roughly 2,200 patients.
Deze 19de-eeuwse hoeve ligt aan de Werkenstraat, ten zuidwesten van de parochiekerk van Bovekerke (Koekelare). De hoevesite is al aangeduid op de Ferrariskaart. Het huidige, witgeschilderde bakstenen boerenhuis dateert volgens jaarankers in de zijgevel uit 1828. In het achteruitspringend gedeelte links bevindt zich de paardenstal. Ten zuiden van het erf bevindt zich een bakstenen stalling uit 1868. De dwarsschuur ten oosten van het boerenhuis dateert uit de jaren 1920. In 2011 werd de hoeve voorlopig beschermd als monument.
