Travelling through the Ranohira district of Madagascar in 2011, this building certainly `caught my eye` .
When I was young the answer was "Poke him in the eye!" But these days I suspect traffic and parking are enough to make a Maltese very cross indeed. Around Valletta and Sliema traffic is horrendous and parking no better, both a real nightmare. For a change there was nothing in front of this garage, so I was able to get my photo. But this was probably the exception to the rule...

No, this is not my house. Although, I wouldn't mind living there. It is a house that I like in the city that I live in. I just think that it is a pretty cool house. And, I like all of the trees around it too. How about you?

I first visited this old Army Air Corps base in Wendover, Utah back in June of 2007 and recently returned for more exploration. In the years between visits much has happened by way of preserving and even restoring this fascinating piece of history. To see images from both this visit and the 2007 visit check out the album here: www.flickr.com/photos/19779889@N00/albums/72157601973705978

Appropriately the Pittsburgh Plate Glass corporate headquarters is a complex of buildings (PPG Place) created with 19,750 sheets of plate glass. The spires were designed to pay homage to the Cathedral of Learning, a gothic style skyscraper on the University of Pittsburgh campus.
"Upon completion of the project, architectural critics and the media called PPG Place 'the crown jewel in Pittsburgh's skyline,' 'the towering success of downtown Pittsburgh,' and 'one of the most ambitious, sensitive and public spirited urban developments since Rockefeller Center.' In 2006, readers of the Pittsburgh City Paper voted PPG Place as the best building in Pittsburgh."

Note that Pittsburgh has a history of buildings that have skins that are made from the corporation's own products. The 1953 Alcoa Building (now the Regional Enterprise Tower) was covered in aluminum, which greatly reduced construction costs due to aluminum being much lighter than other facade materials. The newer (1998) Alcoa Corporate Headquarters has an aluminum and glass facade. The 1971 U.S. Steel Tower is covered in Cor-ten steel, which resists rust and other corrosion caused by weather.

Kaysersberg, Alsace, France.
Kaysersberg es una pequeña ciudad entre Riquewihr y Colmar en el departamento de Haut-Rhin de la regiĂ³n de Alsacia. En general, se considera una de las ciudades mĂ¡s impresionantes de Alsacia, especialmente en el centro medieval de la ciudad.
La ciudad se encuentra en un entorno muy pintoresco, en un valle rodeado de viñedos y con colinas boscosas que se elevan por encima de la ciudad.
Tan pronto como entre en Kaysersberg, encontrarĂ¡ la agradable plaza principal, rodeada de muchos edificios pintados de madera y una calle principal muy agradable.
Al caminar por la calle principal y llegar al rĂo, aquĂ es donde la ciudad se vuelve realmente encantadora. A lo largo de las orillas del rĂo hay numerosas casas de madera medio pintadas de vivos colores, y el rĂo Weiss estĂ¡ atravesado por un precioso puente de piedra fortificado del siglo XVI que añade aĂºn mĂ¡s encanto a la encantadora imagen.
Otro punto de referencia notable dentro de la ciudad es la Iglesia Sainte-Croix de los siglos XIII-XV. La fachada frontal se encuentra entre las partes mĂ¡s antiguas de la iglesia, y en estilo romano: entre en la iglesia a travĂ©s de la puerta tallada para ver el impresionante retablo del siglo XVI de Jean Bongart.
Kaysersberg is a small town between Riquewihr and Colmar in the Haut-Rhin department of the Alsace region. It is generally considered to be one of the most impressive of the Alsace towns, particularly in the town's medieval centre.
The town is in a very picturesque setting, in a valley surrounded by vineyards and with forested hills rising above the town.
As soon as you enter Kaysersberg you fnd the nice main square which is surrounded by lots of painted half-timber buildings, and a very pleasant main street.
As you walk down the main street and reach the river this is where the town becomes really lovely. Along the edges of the river there are numerous brightly painted half-timber houses, and the Weiss river is crossed by a lovely 16th century fortified stone bridge further adding to the charming picture - delightful!
Another notable landmark within the town is the 13th-15th century Church Sainte-Croix. The front facade is among the oldest parts of the church, and in roman style - enter the church through the ornately carved doorway to see the impressive 16th century altarpiece by Jean Bongart.

I really like the sharpness and rendering from the $100 Nikkor 50mm 1.8D. It's susceptible to flare, but it's not a problem when the bright lights are far enough away.
