"Little Island at Pier 55 (stylized as Little Island @Pier55) is an artificial island park in the Hudson River west of Manhattan in New York City, adjoining Hudson River Park. Designed by Heatherwick Studio, it is near the intersection of West Street and 13th Street in the Meatpacking District and Chelsea neighborhoods of Manhattan. It is located slightly west of the Manhattan shoreline atop Hudson River Pier 55, connected to Hudson River Park in Manhattan by footbridges at 13th and 14th Streets.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Little Island, a new, free public park pier within the larger Hudson River Park, opened to the public on May 21, 2021, providing New Yorkers and visitors from around the world with a unique green space unlike any other in New York City. Planned in partnership with the Hudson River Park Trust, Little Island was funded primarily through Barry Diller and the Diller-Von Furstenberg Family Foundation through an extraordinary philanthropic gift to the Hudson River Park.
Components of the pier, nestled among more than 350 species of flowers, trees and shrubs, include a 687-seat amphitheater and an intimate stage and lawn space, along with dazzling views of other portions of Hudson River Park, New York City and the Hudson River.
Little Island was designed by Thomas Heatherwick of Heatherwick Studio, with landscape design by Signe Nielsen of MNLA.
Little Island’s distinct exterior is supported by concrete piles. On top of the piles, 132 concrete “tulips” make up the structure of the park. Each tulip’s shape is unique and has a different weight load capacity to hold the soil, lawns, overlooks and trees. The original Pier 54 piles remain to provide habitat for aquatic life."

Note: I finally visited here yesterday. It's something to explore when visiting NYC. Here you can see the WTC (World Trade Center) and Witney Museum in distance. BOY! even it's only in mid-80'sF yesterday, but, the humidly was unbearable. Was planning to visit "Witney Museum" nearby, it was closed (on Tuesdays). Here is close to the "High Line" and "Hudson Yards", so that you can also visit.
The best time to visit here is at dusk, you'd see the sunset in wide open view. My daughter & I were there around 3pm, when it was too sunny and humid.
The palace was built between 1729 and 1732, initially by the ruler of Amber. The architects achieved a fusion of the Shilpa Shastra of Indian architecture with Rajput, Mughal and European styles of architecture. I am particularly fascinated though by the red shawl on the left and the turbans inside the chamber and also the entrance of another building to the right.
Diwan-I-Khas as shown here was a private audience hall of the Maharajas (meaning rulers or kings), a marble floored chamber. There are two huge sterling silver vessels of 1.6 metres (5.2 ft) height and each with capacity of 4000 litres and weighing 340 kilograms (750 lb), on display here--they are officially recorded by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest sterling silver vessels. These vessels were specially made by Maharaja Sawai Madho Singh II, who was a highly pious Hindu, to carry the water of the Ganges to drink on his trip to England in 1901 (for Edward VII's coronation) as he was finicky about committing religious sin by consuming the English water. There are a number of crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling too.
Spring leaves and wildflowers were popping out everywhere we hiked.
a quotation:
"This is the most beautiful place on earth.
There are many such places. Every man, every woman, carries in heart and mind the image of the ideal place, the right place, the one true home, known or unknown, actual or visionary. A houseboat in Kashmir, a view down Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, a gray gothic farmhouse two stories high at the end of a red dog road in the Allegheny Mountains, a cabin on the shore of a blue lake in spruce and fir country, a greasy alley near the Hoboken waterfront, or even,
for those of a less demanding sensibility, the world to be seen from a comfortable apartment high in the tender, velvety smog of Manhattan, Chicago, Paris, Tokyo, Rio, or Rome
--there's no limit to the human capacity for the homing sentiment."

Esta cueva subterránea, cuyos tramos más antiguos se horadaron en piedra en el siglo XVI, es considerada como una de las catedrales del vino. Situada en Sotillo de la Ribera, Burgos, es la piedra angular de las Bodegas Ismael Arroyo cuya marca mas celebrada, Valsotillo, cría sus caldos en este histórico lugar.
Alrededor de 1200 metros cuadrados de galerías subterráneas, con paredes secas sin filtraciones de humedad, hacen de ella una bodega única en el mundo del vino, dotada de unas características especiales para la maduración y conservación del mismo.
En 1992 se realizó una ampliación para completar el parque de barricas y botelleros que incrementaron su belleza y que la conectaron con los edificios posteriores dedicados a las primeras fases de la elaboración del vino. Su visita es una delicia para los que llegan hasta aquí, ya que se encuentran ante unas instalaciones en las que se lleva criando el zumo de las uvas desde hace 400 años.
Los vinos de Ismael Arroyo, fundador de la marca ValSotillo así como de la denominación de origen Ribera del Duero en el último cuarto del siglo pasado, son envejecidos en esta histórica bodega en unas excelentes condiciones, de manera natural, a una temperatura constante de 11-12ºC. durante todo el año, junto a la ausencia de vibraciones, ruidos y luz, que permiten a sus caldos alcanzar una excelente crianza.
El proceso de crianza se realiza en barricas de roble americano y francés de 225 litros de capacidad y el resto del tiempo reposa en botella hasta su salida al mercado.
Estos caldos, elaborados ahora por los hijos y nietos de su fundador que continúan una larga tradición familiar, muestran una extraordinaria constitución, amplio bouquet y textura, que sólo puede alcanzarse en estas instalaciones singulares.
This underground cave, whose oldest sections were carved into stone in the 16th century, is considered one of the cathedrals of wine.

Around 1,200 square meters of underground galleries, with dry walls without moisture leaks, make it a unique winery in the world of wine, equipped with special characteristics for its maturation and conservation.
In 1992, an extension was made to complete the park of barrels and bottle racks that increased its beauty and connected it with the later buildings dedicated to the first phases of wine production. Their visit is a delight for those who come here, since they find themselves in front of facilities where grape juice has been raised for 400 years.
The wines of Ismael Arroyo, founder of the ValSotillo brand as well as the Ribera del Duero designation of origin in the last quarter of the previous century, are aged in this historic winery in excellent conditions, naturally, at a constant temperature of 11-12ºC. throughout the year, together with the absence of vibrations, noise and light, which allow their wines to achieve excellent aging.
The aging process is carried out in American and French oak barrels with a capacity of 225 liters and the rest of the time it rests in the bottle until it is released to the market.
These wines, now made by the children and grandchildren of their founder who continue a long family tradition, show an extraordinary constitution, broad bouquet and texture, which can only be achieved in these unique facilities.

Europe, Scandinavia, Norge, Oslo, Holmenkollen ski jump stadium (slightly cut from R & T)
The graphic goodness of the Holmenkollen ski jump stadium: here .
Holmenkollbakken is a large ski jumping hill at Holmenkollen in Oslo, Norway. It has a hill size of HS134, a construction point of K-120, and a capacity for 70,000 spectators. Holmenkollen has hosted the Holmenkollen Ski Festival since 1892, which since 1980 has been part of the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup and 1983 the FIS Nordic Combined World Cup. It has also hosted the 1952 Winter Olympics and the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in 1930, 1966, 1982 and 2011.
The hill has been rebuilt 19 times; important upgrades include a stone take-off in 1910, an in-run superstructure in 1914, and a new superstructure in 1928. The venue was used as a military installation during the Second World War but was upgraded in the late 1940s. Further expansions were made ahead of the 1966 and 1982 World Championships and in 1991. Between 2008 and 2010, the entire structure was demolished and rebuilt. Robert Johansson holds the hill record at 144.0 meters. The hill is part of Holmenkollen National Arena, which, in addition to cross-country and biathlon venues, has the normal hill Midtstubakken. (WikI)
In 2011, the stadium was renovated.
The top part of the stadium is shown here.

After an unusually dry 12 month, the water storage levels at Mill Pond Reservoir are extremely low. This time last year, the reservoir was almost at capacity - this rock was 3 or 4 meters under water.
I can no longer count the impacts. The shock I felt the first few times has given way to a slight tremor. And I'm not worth the energy you discharge on me. The source from which I draw my power exceeds your capacities, as if I only had a consciousness of mortality, in order to constantly revolt against it.

Jesus said in the gospels, "You can't put new wine in old wineskins". He was saying you can't go to a new level with an old way of thinking. For something new to happen, something has to resonate on the inside; your spirit man has to come into agreement with God and believe what the scriptures say. Psalm 115 says, "The Lord your God will increase you more and more."
In fact, Jesus said He came that we might have life to the full, in abundance, 'till it overflows. That means you're headed to three places; to a full life, an abundant life, an overflowing life. What type of container do you have ready to receive that overflowing life? If it's a little cup, it's time to get rid of that! You might think a barrel is big, but get rid of that, too! God has a barn load full of blessings in store for each one of you.
It's time to give God permission to increase you. God says that you are going to be most blessed. You're going to have the most peace, the most friends, the must fulfillment, the most resources, the most wisdom, and the most opportunity. Most blessed means you will not lack in any area. You may not have seen it yet, but if you'll stay in faith and make room, God says you're going to be the most blessed!
This one is not a crop, but if you look closely at the larger version you'll see just how much that ventral groove blubber attached to the lower jaw has been stretched! The pink stripes makes it easy to see how huge it is! Pretty amazing!
There are a number of humpbacks in this shot, but that is not a whale in the foreground, by the way. It's a wave breaking on the shore.
Pingmen or Ping Gate, Suzhou
Due to the account capacity constraints, this account will cease to be updated after 28 June, 2024.
I'm sorry to tell you friends that my new account (www.flickr.com/photos/runen3) was instantly cancelled just as I posted my first photo. I have written to enquire as to the cause. There is little hope of a resolution though. Maybe I will say goodbye to Flickr forever.
Good luck to all of you!
This city gate is called "Pingmen" or "Ping Gate", located in the northwest of the old city of Suzhou. The gate is said to have existed 2,500 years ago, but was blocked until 1928, when it was reconstituted to facilitate the traffic of the nearby railway station outside the city. Then in 1958, when all the walls of the city of Suzhou were demolished, the gate of course ceased to exist.
However, in 2011-2012, the Suzhou municipal authorities rebuilt a section of the city wall at the location of the gate, directly south of the Suzhou railway station, with three arches on the wall, known as the "Ping Gate", and built on top of the wall above the gate an pseudo-ancient city tower, which had never existed at the Pingmen before 1958.

Total capacity is 3,300 billion litres. The lake is currently just under 100% after many years of drought and has not been this full since October, 1996.
This photo was taken at approximately 95% capacity. Two years ago the lake was at 25% capacity and the lowest level ever was 5.3% in April, 2007 exposing many old homes, farms and bridges.
It is now once again a haven for boating enthusiasts who enjoy fishing and water skiing and has greatly revived the economies of the townships that surround the lake who rely on it for survival.

Our annual Harvest Fest for the backyard visitors was a huge success with all.
With four pumpkins, two of them carved, gourds, Indian corn, almonds, pecans, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, corn, brazil nuts, hazel nuts and sunflower seed setting the stage, everyone felt like a star whenever a treat or two was discovered.
In case of this chipmunk there's no telling how many treats are packed into those cheeks.
**For those of you who know me, if you saw the squirrel photos yesterday, then you probably guessed chippie shots were next!
"Our dignity or value or capacity is not tied to the way we look or how we dress. Or the size of our wallet or the digits of our zip code. Not by how we are judged by mankind, because our own souls are imbued with the power to work miracles to change water into wine, the meek into the mighty, to change base metal into pure gold." - Congressman John Lewis
The Theatre of Dionysus is an ancient Greek theatre in Athens. It is built on the south slope of the Acropolis hill, originally part of the sanctuary of Dionysus Eleuthereus. The first orchestra terrace was constructed on the site around the mid- to late-sixth century BC, where it hosted the City Dionysia. The theatre reached its fullest extent in the fourth century BC under the epistates of Lycurgus when it would have had a capacity of up to 17,000, and was in continuous use down to the Roman period.
A jeepney plying the route of Olongapo City and the municipalities of Subic, Castillejos and San Marcelino, Zambales, stops as it picks up a male passenger near the corner of the national road and a village street.
The most popular means of public transportation in the Philippines that can be seen nearly everywhere in the country which is composed of 7,100 islands, jeepney has a long history that dated back to the end of the Second World War. It's earlier plain version was just a modified US military jeeps left over from the war.
At present the traditionally designed jeepneys with refurbished diesel engines have various sitting capacities. Those that service long routes have a usual capacity up to 20 passengers, just like the one pictured here.
