I was in #Amsterdam this week and decided to stop by the #eyemuseum to see If I could capture this awesome building in a long exposure. The location was awesome and the conditions were perfect, great light, great skies with fast moving clouds in the right direction! I decided on the composition, made a testshot and all was perfect¦ I took my HighTech 10-stopper out and if I could only find my filter holder i’d be all set!

St. Bernard de Clairvaux Church is a medieval Spanish monastery cloister which was built in the town of Sacramenia in Segovia, Spain, in the 12th century but dismantled in the 20th century and shipped to New York City in the United States. It was eventually reassembled at 16711 West Dixie Highway, North Miami Beach, Florida, where it is now an Episcopal church and tourist attraction called Ancient Spanish Monastery. It is the oldest European-built structure in the Western Hemisphere.

Alexander Nevsky Orthodox chapel was built by the architect NI Pozdeyeva in 1892 in an area where previously housed the Customs market. It was erected in memory of how the October 17, 1888 during a train accident miraculously manner saved the family of Alexander III. Soon it was dedicated in honor of all heavenly patrons of the royal family. Laying ceremony was held by the clergy of the Cathedral of the day October 17, 1889 with the participation of the city authorities.
Часовня на Екатерининской улице (на территории существовавшего здесь Мытного рынка) была устроена в память о чудесном спасении семьи Алек¬сандра III при крушении поезда 17 октября 1888 года. Церемония закладки производилась днем 17 октября 1889 года духовенством собора, с крестным ходом, в при¬сутствии городских властей.
Construction of the church and the monastery alongside was begun by the Carmelite Order, and the first Mass was celebrated there on 25 May 1268 even before the church had been completed. The buildings underwent a long series of changes that radically modified their appearance. In 1330 the church was almost completely destroyed by a fire and partially rebuilt, before being abandoned by the Carmelites who moved elsewhere. Plans for rebuilding began in 1400, and work started under Gian Galeazzo Visconti’s rule, but in 1446, when the buildings were at an advanced stage of completion, both church and monastery collapsed. The architect Pietro Antonio Solari was commissioned with rebuilding in 1449, and the vaulting and the external parts of the transept visible today are can be ascribed to this period. In 1654, extensive refurbishment began, on the floor, tower and main door.
Церковь Санта-Мария-дель-Кармине получила свое название от ордена основателей отцов-кармелитов, который построил ее в 1269 году, и ее история перемежается рядом неудачных пожаров и обвалов, которые разрушили ее первоначальный облик. Церковь была оставлена кармелитами и вылилась в запущенное состояние до тех пор, пока она не была восстановлена в начале пятнадцатого века соларскими рабочими, которые придали ей типичный стиль миланского возрождения, все еще заметный сегодня. Храм церкви снова рухнул, и работа снова началась; в середине пятнадцатого века церковь стала особенно священной для аристократических семей, чьи часовни были построены внутри, по-разному украшенные произведениями на холсте, скульптуры и фрески, из которых вы все еще можете увидеть прекрасные образцы, начиная с пятнадцатого до восемнадцатого века, в том числе сделанные в рамках борромейских модификаций конца шестнадцатого века. Экскурсия продолжается в монастыре, где собраны римские и средневековые надгробия и скульптуры из благородных часовен внутри церкви. Сегодняшний фасад является результатом реставрационных работ девятнадцатого века в эклектическом стиле Карло Макиачини, известного тем, что построил монументальное кладбище Милана.
Often called "Gothic Bridge" because of its reference to Gothic design, it is officially known as Bridge No. 28. It was designed in 1864 and made of cast iron and steel. Spanning the bridle path between northern Reservoir and the tennis courts, it is one of the most impressive bridges designed by Calvert Vaux.

New York City - September 29, 2023: In camera motion creates a moody Times Square at night in the rain, Manhattan.
I was drawn into the mesmerizing symmetry of these vaulted arches. Each line and shadow seemed to weave a silent rhythm, creating a pattern that felt both intricate and infinite. There’s something almost hypnotic about the way the light touches the edges, casting soft contrasts that give depth to the design. It’s as if the architecture whispers stories from centuries past, yet remains timelessly serene.
As I strolled along the limestone path that has been bathed by sun and rain for 1,000 years, I felt I entered a world like fantasy that came to life, that took me back in time a thousand years.
