Within the heart of Colombo is the Gangarama Buddhist Temple. Built during the late 19th century for the Buddhists who lived in the capital city of Colombo; the temple sprawled over a large area of land and included several outer structures. The Seema Malaka is one of these. Originally, it was built with a foundation within the floor of Beira Lake, and was the image of stolidity. However, it was not able to withstand the marshy ground underneath the lake. By 1970 the Seema Malaka had sunk completely under the waters of of Beira.
And then in 1976, Sir Geoffrey Bawa was hired to do this difficult construction design. He created three floating platforms interlinked by pontoon walkways and anchored to the base of the lake by way of stone pillars.
The light design ensured that the construction would not sink. The entire structure is connected to the shore using another pontoon bridge. He created a design that emulated the ancient monasteries of Anuradhapura, and added his own signature modern twirl to it. Bawa was one of the most influential Asian architects of the mid to late 20th century, and was well known for founding Tropical Modernism. This style is very apparent in the deep blue clay roof tiles of the main temple, the simplistic and yet delicate structure made of a collection of wooden spindles and banisters that lets plenty of air and light in, and the overall design that conforms to nature instead of fighting against it.
В центре Коломбо находится буддийский храм Гангарама. Построенный в конце 19-го века для буддистов, которые жили в столице Коломбо; храм растянулся на большой территории и включал в себя несколько внешних сооружений. Сима Малака является одним из них. Первоначально, он был построен с фундаментом в дне озера Бейра. Однако, он не смог противостоять болотистой местности под озером и к 1970 году Сима Малака полностью утонул в водах Бейры.
А затем в 1976 году сэр Джеффри Бава был нанят для выполнения этой сложной конструкции. Он создал три плавучих платформы, соединенных между собой понтонными дорожками и поставленных на якорь у основания озера с помощью каменных столбов.
Легкий дизайн гарантировал, что конструкция не утонет. Вся конструкция соединена с берегом с помощью другого понтонного моста. Он создал дизайн, который подражал древним монастырям Анурадхапура, и добавил к нему свой собственный современный стиль. Бава был одним из самых влиятельных азиатских архитекторов середины и конца 20-го века, и был хорошо известен как основатель тропического модернизма. Этот стиль очень очевиден в темно-синей глиняной черепице главного храма, в упрощенной и в то же время деликатной структуре, сделанной из коллекции деревянных шпинделей и перил, которая пропускает много воздуха и света, и в общем дизайне, который соответствует природе.

In the evening, even around the Louvre sometimes a bit of silence returns, after the long days when thousands of visitors visit the world-famous museum. So there is time and peace to look at the wonderfully illuminated historic buildings, enjoy and ponder what these walls would have already seen and experienced. What exciting stories that would be!
Man its cold outside! I had to defrost the car this morning... Winter is coming! Hereâs an image taken on another very cold winters morning.

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.

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.

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.

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.
