La calle de Balborraz es una de las calles más antiguas de Zamora. Se encuentra ubicada en el casco histórico de la ciudad y tiene su inicio en la Plaza Mayor. La calle se denomina Balborraz del árabe "bab al ras" que se traduce como "puerta de la cabeza". Esta denominación proviene de la época del siglo X en el que se produjo la batalla denominada día de Zamora. Existía una puerta del mismo nombre que la calle, abierta sobre la murallas y que fue demolida en el año 1555 por amenazar ruina. La calle reúne una estampa puramente tradicional y artesana. Por su trazado han procesionado algunas de las comitivas más importantes de la Semana Santa. Vía de acceso al centro económico-administrativo de la ciudad desde el otro lado del río.
La calle supone una bajada en cuesta desde la Plaza hasta el Duero. Enlaza desde la Plaza Mayor, adyacente al Ayuntamiento Viejo la calle baja en cuesta pronunciada hasta enlazar, sin solución de continuidad, hasta la calle de la Plata. De recorrido quebrado y anchura variable. Es desde el siglo X una calle de artesanos que enlazaba la judería vieja con el casco antiguo de Zamora. Los artesanos más típicos: caldereros, carpilleros, alfamareros, herreros, laneros, lateros. La Puerta de Balborraz estuvo desde el siglo X en la calle que dio su nombre y en su dintel existía la cabeza esculpida de Ahmed-ben-Moavia (Posiblemente origen etimológico del nombre de la puerta). Existe en un lado de calle una placa conmemorativa al centenario del imaginero coresano Ramón Álvarez Prieto (La lápida pone Ramón "Álvarez Moretón" por error).en honor al taller que tuvo allí este coresano. Otro ilustre vecino de la calle (en el nº 16) vivió Manuel Boizas López escritor y erudito de la ciudad. Antaño vivió Men Rodríguez de Sanabria mayordomo real de Pedro I. En el número 54 estuvo un palacio denominado de las golondrinas.
Algunas de las ferias importantes de la ciudad como la anual de san Pedro se han celebrado en la calle, mercado de trillos. La mayoría de las casas actuales son de finales del siglo XIX, comienzos del XX. La aparición de nuevos medios de locomoción, incompatibles con la fuerte pendiente de la calle desplazó su protagonismo comercial. La rehabilitación realizada en la calle a mediados de los años noventa fue premiada por Europa Nostra en el año 1997. Mantiene parte de su calzada de cantos rodados.(Wikipedia)

Three Mile Island
This plant will close soon. I remember visiting it when it had a partial meltdown years ago. To say it's eerie, out in the night - is a bit of an understatement. You can hear the machinery softly whirring.
"A fisherman and his son are out on the sea at night. His son falls asleep while his father continues to sail. Soon, though, a soft call from the waves catches his attention. Numb and entranced, he solemnly wanders to the edge of the boat, embracing how the waves take him under.
The son, after a few hours, wakes up to see his father gone. He frantically looks over to see if he's fallen, and sees a woman watching him from below. She is more beautiful than Aphrodite herself, and had eyes that soothed even the most frightening of creatures. She smiles, and begins to sing her tune to the child. However, no matter how loud she sang or how melodic her voice was, the boy just stared at her quizzically. Confused, she reaches to the surface, asking him if he can hear her. The boy stares back at her, unsure of what she's saying, and only replies with hand gestures.
The mermaid now understands why he doesn't follow her call: he is deaf. Sweetly, she holds her arms out towards him, touching his ears gently. The child felt her fingers almost vibrate, and soon the boy could slowly start hearing a low rumble. Then, the distant sound of the water moving to and fro reached his ears. He smiles, amazed that he can hear for the first time in his life. He gestures a thank you to his mermaid friend, and she simply smiles back.
The beauty of the deep begins her call once more, seeing the child become fastened still in place. His eyes glazed over, and began walking closer to his helper. The mermaid continues her lulling tune, and warmly holds the child close, before dragging him to the depths."
macro shot of a calla bud, please view the original size for some amazing details ... I was going to crop this at first, but decided against it as I really liked the depth of field and bokeh ... so this is straight out of the camera with no post processing. I've been listening to the Lush Radio Edit of the song Umbrella by Rihanna too much :)

Don't hate me
I'm not special like you
I'm tired and I'm so alone
Don't fight me
I know you'll never care
Can I call you on the telephone now and then?

This gold pocket watch belonged to my late father in law. The glass cover has long gone and you might notice the short hand is broken. I wanted to do something different in photographing it. When I was done, I called it a day :)

Deadvlei called dead marsh was believed to be formed 600-700 years ago.The clay pan was formed after rainfall, when the Tsauchab river flooded. The flood created pools of water where the camel thorn trees grew. When the climate changed the trees died. They are not petrified but the wood does not decompose because it its so dry.

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)
