The Pont du Gard was built by the Romans around AD50. It is an aqueduct and part of a system to supply water from the source of the Eure to the city of Nimes, over a distance of 50Km with a vertical drop of only 17 metres...an astonishing civil engineering feat. The Pont du Gard is 48 metres high and has a span of 275 metres. Built in 3 tiers, it crosses the river Gardon at its narrowest point. An incredible and awe-inspiring structure.

Re-upload met een reden. Op 24 en 25 mei zijn delen van de NoordZuidlijn weer open voor wandelingen. Je moet je hiervoor wel inschrijven. De inschrijving start op 14 mei om 12.00u. Lees hierover alles op de website van de NoordZuidlijn. Het is zeer waarschijnlijk dat dit de laatste keer is dat de wandelingen plaatsvinden. De werkzaamheden zijn volgend jaar te ver gevorderd. Gelukkig maar, die metro zal toch echt eens gaan rijden.
Wees erbij en wellicht kom je Harry nog tegen als vrijwilliger, met helm, geel of oranje vestje, grote schoenen en natuurlijk met de camera in de aanslag!
Schrijf je in!

A couple sits by a lake in central park. Two architectural icons can be seen - to the left partially cropped out the Dakota building (built in 1882), and to the right the San Remo Building.
The architectural style easily outdates the 1930's art deco styles seen in Midtown. These buildings are constructed in a style called German Renaissance.

Took this shot straight at the midsection of the tower. There's symmetry all over it. Gustave Eiffel was a visionary. It was supposed to be just a 20 year contract putting this tower up -- and when it is turned over to the city, it was supposed to be demolished after the 20 years has lapsed. but its more than a hundred years now since 1889, the tower is still here, and has become a world icon.

Scene captured during a day trip to the Waterloopbos in the Netherlands: a stream banked with concrete.
مکین خوش تھے کہ جب بند تھے مکانوں میں
کھلے کواڑ تو تالے پڑے زبانوں میں
درخت ماؤں کی مانند انتظار میں ہیں
طیور لوٹ کر نہ آۓ آشیانوں میں
ہوا کی زد پے بھی دو ایک چراغ روشن ہیں
بلا کے حوصلے دیکھے ہیں سخت جانوں میں

This picture has some personal history for me. I first saw this room when I was a kid traveling with my parents. Dad took a slide but there wasn't a lot of light, he had a SEARS 35mm camera and there's a lot of vibration in the room. So his shot was, well let's just say it was kind of shaky.
So when I was there some 50 years later, I made sure I got a sharp picture. In fact, I took the tour specifically to get this shot.
There are millions upon millions of versions of this picture out there. It's a stop on the tour. Some of you know I dislike taking the same shot as everyone else. But this is an exception. It has some history for me, I solved a technical problem that my Dad had, AND it checks a LOT of boxes as far as photo composition goes. It's now one of my all time favorites.
