Pequeño humilladero construido en el siglo XVI
Servía como lugar de oración para los viajeros que salían del pueblo y para albergar imágenes de la Pasión del Redentor, especialmente utilizadas durante los oficios de Semana Santa.
Hace tiempo que acabó la misa de ocho, ya no se escuchan las alocadas carreras de los niños ni el murmullo de los corrillos. Solo el eco de pasos de unos amantes resuenan en la distancia mientras hablan de eso que llamamos amor.

Yes, there are moments when you even have a city like Venice almost all to yourself, and not even necessarily in a small alleyway away from the hustle and bustle of the tourists. Just visit Venice in January and wait for a cool and rainy night and the city is almost deserted.

Brest, Brittany, France - May 2019: a bride dressed in wedding gown is climbing the steps of Brest’s townhall for wedding.
The abandoned Cinéma Normandie stands as a relic of another era, its faded sign and peeling paint hinting at a time when films flickered on the screen and crowds filled the seats. Now, the boarded-up entrance and weathered poster tell a story of a place left behind, yet the ghost of its cultural vibrancy lingers in the air. The empty walls seem to whisper memories of stories once told within, but now silence and decay have taken the stage.
Templo Kiyomizu-dera es quizás el más popular de los templos en Kyoto . La terraza del templo sobresale de la ladera de una montaña sostenida por columnas de madera de 13 metros de altura.
In January, the sun is already low above the horizon in the early evening. Its soon-to-be last rays make the clouds above the Grand Canal in Venice glow in warm, golden colours. The images Mother Nature conjures up in the sky are always spectacular.

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.

When I'm travelling to a place and have my camera in my luggage, I often have a few pictures in my head that I want to take. Sometimes I succeed and sometimes I don't. But I'm always surprised at the spontaneous motifs that appear when you just walk through the neighbourhood with your eyes wide open.
Like this mirror, for example, which was leaning against a wall in Venice and in which the backdrop of the lagoon city is wonderfully reflected. It's definitely worth getting down on your knees for and in front of it.

Much like traditional homes, even churches in the Faroes can have turf roofs. This one happens to be in Skálavík, a small village of less than 200 on the eastern coast of Sandoy. The town is home to a couple of famous Faroese authors, although honestly, famous by Faroese stands is unknown by global standards. The church itself was built way back in 1891.
There's not a ton of villages to see on Sandoy. Within a span of about 20 minutes you can drive from the ferry port in Skopun, through Magn, and into Skalavik. Of course, add some time to walk around a bit, but overall, that's like half the island. Add in time to drive to a couple more remote villages if you like, and you have yourself a nice little day trip.

I've always loved the look of film, but the idea of shooting it doesn't appeal to me at all. So, for something a little different this Christmas Eve morning I've tried to give this photo a more film-like look. Something about a the green-cast you see in certain film photos, and some movies/shows has always been really appealing to me, so that's the kind of look I went for.
Каркасная башня с часами. Они долгое время (каламбур) стояли, сейчас идут. Насколько известно, сделали каркас не по чьей-то прихоти, а как решение проблемы с разрушением здания.
The structure was covered with white and pink marble from the Candoglia quarry in Val D’Ossola. The Cathedral’s roof is covered in openwork pinnacles and spires crowned with sculptures that overlook the city.
Фасад здания, его шпили и внутренние помещения, украшены невообразимым числом статуй – 3400. В это число входят изображения исторических личностей, святых, мучеников, пророков и прочих библейских персонажей. Не обошлось и без верных символов средневековья – горгулий и химер. Они, как верные атрибуты готики, угнездились на стенах здания, отгоняя нечисть. Среди наружной отделки здания попадаются весьма любопытные экземпляры, например, изображение Муссолини или же древний прототип статуи Свободы, что ныне стоит в США.

"Castle Hill Lighthouse is a solidly built structure, and has needed little more than routine care and maintenance over the years. The original wooden stairs were replaced by concrete steps in 1992. Castle Hill Light remains an important active aid to navigation, showing a flashing red light every thirty seconds, and has been used countless times as a beginning and ending point for the famous yacht races taking place in Newport."

Szék is an island of Hungarian ethnicity in central Transylvania (Romania). The town received its name in the Middle Ages from the local salt mines (szik in the old language means salt).
The Szék community managed to preserve its unique folk traditions, distinctive styles of music, dance, embroidery, and costume through the centuries. Many of the older villagers still wear their traditional costume as they go about their everyday life
This Hungarian stilt village is built in a lake that never freezes over due to the power plant that uses it as a cooling pond.
The neighboring towns of Bokod and Oroszlány, have more than two linear miles of cabins and cottages suspended on stilts over Lake Bokodi. The little houses are mostly used by locals in the summer months, but they also cater to year-round anglers who take advantage of one weird fact about the lake — despite the frigid Hungarian winters, it rarely freezes over.
The Buonconsiglio Castle, splendid residence of the Prince Bishops and symbol of the city of Trento, is made up of different parts built in different ages: an older one, called Castelvecchio, includes Torre Aquila, with the frescoes of the Cycle of the Months, a masterpiece of Gothic art that takes us to the heart of courtly and peasant life at the end of the 14th century. Then there is a Renaissance part, the Magno Palazzo, commissioned by the Prince Bishop Bernardo Cles and richly frescoed, while another wing of the palace, the Giunta Albertiana, is from the Baroque age. During the First World War the trial against the irredentists Cesare Battisti, Fabio Filzi and Damiano Chiesa was held here.
Мощная цитадель с толстыми стенами, окнами-бойницами, оборонительными башнями, подъемным мостом – типичное строение XIII века в романском стиле. Внутри находились подземелья и камеры пыток. Через 200 лет была надстроена высокая Орлина башня (Torre dell’Aquila) – веяние готики; внутренние росписи башни – сцены времен года – ценнейший памятник готического искусства. В XVI в. к крепости был пристроен Парадный дворец (Magno Palazzo): фронтоны, галереи с колоннадами, росписи на темы античных сюжетов – это уже Ренессанс. Новая пристройка к замку – La Giunta Albertiana с элементами барокко была сделана в XVII.

Milan Cathedral, called Duomo di Milano in Italian, is a vast Gothic-style cathedral, located in the heart of Milan. It is 515 ft (157 metres) long and 302 ft (92 m) wide. It can house up to 40.000 people. Il Duomo di Milano is one of the largest Catholic churches in the world. The construction of Milan Cathedral began in 1386, which coincided with Gian Galeazzo Visconti coming into power. The purpose of this impressive construction was to modernize the area and to celebrate the expansion of the Visconti territory. The Cathedral took five centuries to complete. During this time, various architects, sculptors and artists contributed to the famous construction program known as the “Fabbrica del Duomo”. The result was an impressive and unique piece of architecture, which merged the international Gothic style with the Lombard Romanesque style.
С учетом всех декораторских работ строительство осуществлялось 579 лет. Мало какие сооружения могут похвастаться столь серьезным и длительным подходом к созданию уникального произведения искусства. В массивной церкви может вместиться около 40 000 человек. Если взглянуть на здание с высоты птичьего полета, то станет ясно, что оно напоминает католический крест, у которого вертикаль составляет 158 м, а горизонтальный неф – 92 м. Наивысшая точка собора – шпиль, украшенный статуей Девы Марии, высота самого высокого шпиля – 106 м.
