"Buscando las aventuras por entre las duras peñas, maldiciendo entrañas duras, que entre riscos y entre breñas halla el triste desventuras; hirióle amor con su azote y no con su blanda correa, y en tocándole el cogote aquí lloró don Quijote ausencias de Dulcinea del Toboso."
Don Quijote de La Mancha. Capítulo XXVI.
my first capture for 2017 was just fabulous! The after glow was so beautiful it seems unreal. What an amazing Sunday!
The U Bein bridge in Mandalay. This bridge is probably Mandalay's most visited attraction, it is made entirely out of teak wood and is thought to be the longest in the world of it's type. Building was started in 1849 and it took 2 years to finish, it's purpose was to connect 2 monasteries on either side of the Taungthaman Lake.
The Khan's Palace in Bakhchisaray was built in the 16th century and served as a residence for a succession of Crimean Khans. The Crimean Khanate was a Turkic vassal state of the Ottoman Empire from 1478 to 1774 -- the longest-lived of the Turkic khanates that succeeded the empire of the Golden Horde.

Строительство дворца началось при Менгли-Гирее I в 1503 г. параллельно с новой Ханской столицей, к этому периоду времени относится возведение Демир-Капы. Но основные работы по его созданию велись в период правления Сахиб-Гирея I: с 1532 по 1551 гг. было построено большинство прекрасных зданий.
Однако говорить, что возведение его закончили незадолго до смерти Сахиб-Гирея, было бы неправильно. Фактически каждый из ханов добавлял что-то свое – так и продолжалось до ликвидации Крымского ханства в 1785 г. Во время русско-турецкой войны 1735-1739 гг. в 1736 г. Бахчисарай был взят русскими войсками, а ханская резиденция сожжена по приказу фельдмаршала Миниха.

Iceland can be rather large or small depending on your perception of it. The way maps are projected can distort its size. Kentucky is only slightly larger than Iceland for instance, but with a population density 13x that of the island. With the small population, the whole place just seems much larger.
Over 1/3rd of the population of Iceland call its capital city of Reykjavik home, and if you include the Capital Region as a whole, you've got over 60% of the population living in just over 1% of the size of the country. With that kind of urban density, the rest of the island is suddenly even more sparsely populated.
I really wish I had time to explore Reykjavik, but realistically I just had a few meals and didn't do any sightseeing as I was either working or touring outside of the city. One week in Iceland is enough time to take in the major sights in the West and South, especially if you're on a true vacation and not just working remotely like I was. If you really want to see the country though, I'd recommend a minimum of two weeks so that you can either explore the parts in depth you're interested in, or do a drive around the ring road. 3-4 weeks, and now you're talking about really seeing Iceland as it deserves to be seen. Well, I only spent a week, so I guess that means I have to keep returning till I see it all, right?
This view of Reykjavík was taken from Perlan. I ate a rather expensive below-average dinner where I can only assume my money was spent more for the view inside a rotating restaurant than for the food itself. Food in Iceland can be fairly expensive, but it can also be quite delicious - just not at Perlan. The ginormous Lutheran church Hallgrímskirkja dominates the skyline. Its design is meant to resemble the basalt lava flows you can find around the island.

I spent an early morning at the Taj Mahal to take in sunrise and rush around in a desperate attempt to get a few key photos before the place was overwhelmed with tourists. On my eventual way out, I came across this geometrically pleasing hallway.

This is not a built structure, but just a painting on a plain sheet appropriately cut to shape. This shot was taken in the sculpture park, National Mall, Washington DC
A view of Neuschwanstein Castle with storm clouds behind, you can understand how this palace famously inspired Disney's Sleeping Beauty castle. Neuschwanstein Castle or Schloss Neuschwanstein is a nineteenth-century Romanesque Revival palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. Translated into English, New Swanstone Castle was built between 1869 and 1886, the castle was intended as a home for king Ludwig II of Bavaria until his death in 1886. The palace was commissioned by the king a as a retreat and as a homage to Richard Wagner. The King didn't use the Bavarian public funds for this extravagance, instead Ludwig funded the building of the palace from his personal fortune and some extensive borrowing.

Slightly enhanced using Apple camera edits. These nuts appear to clamp the lower jaw or anvil into place using these large nuts. The steel rod to the left is solid steel and measures approximately 10-12 inches in diameter. This a massively built structure; very impressive. One observer suggested it might be a cotton bale press for making large cotton bales. Because it is located beside a major railroad yard that seems likely.
The Galleria built between 1865 and 1877 is formed by two arcades shaped like a Latin cross covered by a glass and iron dome. The structure of the Galleria is 32 metres high, comprises 353 tonnes of iron utilised for the skeleton of the cover, and its octagonal-shaped roof reaches a height of 47 metres. If you walk around the galleries, the central dome has a stunning mosaic that represents the continents of Asia, Africa, Europe and America.
Расположенная в самом сердце города, эта торговая галерея соединяет две красивейшие площади «столицы моды» — площадь перед собором Дуомо и площадь перед театром Ла Скала. алерея носит имя короля Витторио Эммануэле II (или Виктора Эммануила), а построена она была в 1865—1877 гг. по проекту архитектора Джузеппе Менгони, который, увы, до окончания работ не дожил — упал со строительных лесов и погиб. Пассаж имеет удивительно гармоничную в архитектурном плане форму латинского креста с восьмиугольным центром. Его главная изюминка — стеклянные крыши и гигантский 47-метровый купол посередине. Украшенную мозаиками, изображающими четыре континента (кроме Австралии), галерею можно назвать поистине архитектурной жемчужиной столицы Ломбардии. Внутри — яркие фрески, изящные скульптуры, причудливая лепнина и мозаичный пол с гербами Милана, Турина, Рима и Флоренции.

When nature takes over; the hauntingly beautiful former convent, former hospital, former sanitorium, now a wasteland for nature to run wild.
This is the one time residence of a relatively successful farmer. Built of local limestone, this substantial two story survives after decades of abandonment. Typical settlers were eastern European Catholic families that broke the sod and attempted to till the soil in a climate with too little precipitation for the acreage the government supplied via the Homestead Act. Eventually the rural population shrunk to a small portion of the original, leaving abandoned farmsteads. In this case the only surviving built structure is the home built of stone. Remember the story of the tree pigs and the one built of "brick".
