Church of St. Nicholas Nadzeіna - the first stone church built in the framework of urban tenements in Yaroslavl. His age - 390 years. According to legend, the temple was built on the same bank of the Volga, where the wave threw the icon of St. Nicholas, who is the patron of all seafarers.
The temple was built in the style of his previous century, but this is not surprising. Church of St. Nicholas Nadzeіna - one of the first buildings that emerged after the end of the Time of Troubles, during which the architecture is not worried about weight in the first place. Therefore, the builders did not seek to create something entirely new.
Пятиглавый четырехстолпный храм, окруженный с трех сторон открытой двухъярусной галереей-папертью, с восьмигранной шатровой колокольней над ее северо-западным углом был построен в 1620 — 1621 на месте деревянной Благовещенской церкви на средства богатого купца, государева гостя Епифания Андреевича («Надеи») Светешникова. Храм двухэтажный, с высоким подклетом под церковью, служившим и складом товаров Е. А. Свешникова, и усыпальницей его рода.

London, England - January 2, 2025: Long exposure of Westminster Bridge at night with a quarter moon over Parliament, the River Thames and Big Ben.
Before my visit to Lyon, during my research I came across a picture of the Hôtel-Dieu de Lyon lit up at night. And of course I wanted to take a picture myself at sunset and at night.
It was a cloudless sunset and the sun was setting behind the most beautiful building reflected in the Rhône River that runs through the city.
By the way, if you like French cities and have seen most of Paris several times, visit Lyon!
Thanks for your criticism and as always, favs, likes and comments are gratefully appreciated!
Кальтаджироне (итал. Caltagirone) - Площадь Умберто I (Piazza Umberto I) - the Norman Cathedral of San Giuliano
The museum was founded in 1872 by Ivan Zabelin, Aleksey Uvarov and several other Slavophiles interested in promoting Russian history and national self-awareness. The board of trustees, composed of Sergey Solovyov, Vasily Klyuchevsky, Uvarov and other leading historians, presided over the construction of the museum building. After a prolonged competition the project was handed over to Vladimir Osipovich Shervud (or Sherwood, 1833–97).
Государственный исторический музей (ГИМ) — крупнейший национальный исторический музей России[1]. Основан в 1872 году, здание на Красной площади Москвы было построено в 1875-м по проекту архитектора Владимира Шервуда и инженера Анатолия Семёнова[2][3]. Участок для строительства предоставила Московская городская дума, приказав снести стоявшее там здание Главной аптеки
En origen debió de ser un templo románico, aunque hoy sólo queda en pie su sencilla portada de entrada, sus muros maestros y la espadañuela. La imagen del santo se guarda en una de las casas del pueblo.

The Roman Catholic church of St Charles in Gosforth was built in 1911 (replacing an earlier iron-built structure) and is a handsome building with two small west steeples flanking the main facade and a wide cruciform body culminating in a shallow apse. The interior is partially enlivened by marble-cladding, particularly around the sanctuary.
The outstanding features here however are in glass, principally the two large windows that dominate the north and south transepts, the largest windows in the church and both filled with gloriously rich stained glass by Harry Clarke Studios of Dublin and installed in 1945 (long after the death of Clarke himself and most likely designed by his successor Richard King). The south window depicts the Nativity, whilst that to the north represents the Deposition, with Christ's body being removed from the Cross. There is a further window by the same studio in the south nave clerestorey depicting Christ before Pilate, somewhat smaller and sadly less accessible.
This is a thoroughly rewarding church to visit for lovers of stained glass, though it is best to check with the church about access as it isn't always open outside mass times.
The Cathedral of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is located not far from the Kremlin on the left bank of the Moskva River, in a place formerly called the Church. The existing structure is an external reconstruction of the temple of the same name, created in the XIX century, carried out in the 1990s. The original Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow was erected in gratitude to God for saving Russia from the Napoleonic invasion. It was built according to the project of architect Konstantin Ton. The construction lasted almost 44 years: the temple was laid on September 23, 1839, consecrated on May 26, 1883. December 5, 1931. the temple building was destroyed. Rebuilt in the same place by 1999.

This is a shot that I've been meaning to take for a while .... the foot of Pucks Glen framed by the lovely stone bridge that marks the start of the track.
This shot was both focus-stacked and exposure-stacked due to the use of a long lens and the hight dynamic range of the scene.

Universally known as Aragonese, it was actually much more ancient, since there is already mention of its existence in 1027, though it must have existed already in 536, probably on a preexisting stronghold of Roman times. Есть подтверждения, что этот замок уже возвышался на территории Реджо Калабрия в 1027 году, в норманнский период, однако временем его построения считается период с 536 по 549 гг. Замок был сооружен византийцами, а при норманнах он был отреставрирован и переделан под нужды местных правителей. Замок также переходил из рук в руки: от норманнов в анжуйским, и в конце концов перешел к арагонским.
Tolga Convent was founded in 1314 on the left bank of the Volga river, on the place of miraculous appearance of the Tolga Icon of the Mother of God. Against all odds of history, beginning with Mongol Yoke, Tolga Convent emerged from ruins and desolation and nowadays attracts thousands of pilgrims. The convent is located not far from Yaroslavl; on the left bank of the river Volga, at the place of confluence of a small river Tolgobolka (or Tolga) into Volga. White stone walls with high angle towers, cathedrals with multiple heads, glaring golden domes and crosses and a predominating massive bell-tower form one magnificent harmonious structure, captivating eyes of those travelling along Volga. The cedar grove has been planted here in the 16th century to commemorate the miraculous appearance of the icon after fire.
Епископ Прохор, возвращаясь по Волге в Ярославль из Белозерья, 7 августа 1314 года вместе с бывшими при нем священниками остановился ночевать на правом берегу Волги в 8 верстах от Ярославля. В полночь он увидел на противоположном берегу сияющий огненный столп и мост к нему. Утром 8 августа там была обретена икона Пресвятой Богородицы. На этом месте святитель начал строить церковь. В начале XV века здесь произошел пожар. Сгорели кельи, ограда, пламя мгновенно объяло и церковь. Спасти из церковной утвари ничего не удалось. Но когда огонь потух, святую икону обрели вне монастыря, в лесу, совершенно невредимую и сияющую светом. В Смутное время Толгская обитель была полностью разорена, но чудотворная икона уцелела. 1612 год отмечен в летописи монастыря древнейшим из известных крестных ходов с Толгской иконой Богородицы в Ярославль, назначенный тогда сборным пунктом для народных ополчений, собиравшихся для спасения Москвы и Русского государства.

Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, India, South Asia. Patwa-ki-Haveli (or Patwon-Ki-Haveli) is considered the most important haveli in Jaisalmer, firstly because it was the city's first ever haveli and secondly because it is not a single haveli but a cluster of 5 small havelis. The first among these havelis was commissioned and constructed in the year 1805 by Guman Chand Patwa with the remainder built subsequently over a period spanning 50 years.

The Petronas Twin Towers feature a double decker skybridge connecting the two towers on the 41st and 42nd floors, which is the highest 2-story bridge in the world. It is not attached to the main structure, but is instead designed to slide in and out of the towers to prevent it from breaking, as the towers sway several feet in towards and away from each other during high winds. It also provides some structural support to the towers in these occasions. The bridge is 170 m (558 ft) above the ground and 58 m (190 ft) long, weighing 750 tons. The same floor is also known as the podium, since visitors going to higher levels have to change elevators here.

On the opposite side of the narrow valley, one can see the unusual farm buildings of the monastery in the form of large Ukrainian huts. In fact, the roofs of these buildings are nothing more than protruding rocks, to which only one wall was added, and a large barn turned out. Monks breed there all kinds of livestock for food: chickens, turkeys, geese. There are also vegetable stores and other utility rooms.

На противоположной стороне узкой долины видны необычные хозяйственные строения монастыря в виде больших украинских хат. На самом деле крыши этих строений не что иное, как выступающие скальные породы, к которым только пристроили одну стену, и получился большой сарай. Монахи разводят там всякую живность для пропитания: кур, индюков, гусей. Там же расположены овощехранилища и другие подсобные помещения.
