At 08:15, October 3, 2025, a BNSF eastbound oil train is at Tolland, Colorado. The train is powered by seven units configured 4-0-3. The fall colors at this elevation are past peak, but there is still enough for some nice photography.
Seen from a distance across the airfield during RIAT 2023, this U-2 would fly a mission from Fairford the next day.
The dorsal radome fitted here is a satellite communications system known as either Senior Span or Senior Spur, depending on how the aircraft is configured. Senior Span enables the conveyance of signals intelligence collection data beyond line of sight and around the globe. Senior Spur is used for transmitting other forms of data, including image intelligence and electronic intelligence gathered by the U-2's sensors.
Avant de débarquer sur le sol namurois, le Pavillon a été le symbole de la Belgique à l’exposition universelle de Milan. Cette création de Patrick Genard, primée pour son éco-design, vient compléter avec audace le paysage de la Citadelle.
Aujourd’hui, perché sur son promontoire, le Pavillon se veut le totem d’une transformation numérique. le Pavillon recueille les visions de ceux et celles qui questionnent le présent à travers le numérique. Sa mission ? Permettre à tout un chacun de s’approprier les enjeux de notre époque à travers l’initiation, la découverte et l’expérimentation.
Curieux et audacieux : c’est le mode de configuration du Pavillon. De bois, de clous et de métal à l’extérieur, le Pavillon du dedans se construit comme une joyeuse créature organique, sans cesse en changement. Une évolution qui n’est pas sans rappeler celle du monde, faite d’essais et d’erreurs.

The best moments of the show started early. Luckily, I had already eaten dinner and went to the place that people recommended to get my camera ready, configuring the settings and framing the shot.
Last two days the weather was sunny and off I went to the local Botanic Garden to check out OM1 Pro Capture feature shooting at 120 and 60 fps with no blackouts. Surprisedly both did not disappoint. Here is 2 shots with 120 fps, the first and sixth. It captured 6 beautiful images within such a short distance. This is one useful use of such feathers when the bird is hopping and flying from one flower to another. All the images are cropped JPEG out of cam.
Bought the 40-150f2,8 since launch and have never used it until this week. Very please with the results.
Next posting I checked out the perforcemace of the OM1 with the Oly SHG 150f2 lens. Later I will check out with 300f2.8
Lucky me the OM1 is still not playing up despite all the customisations I have made. C1 is configured to include High Res and Focus Stacking. Pick this tip up from internet and this way it frees up 2 function buttons.
Cruising by at San Joaquin Marsh, a water treatment area in Orange County configured to attract wildlife.
UP 5730 brings a relatively short 3933' 64 car MASPB 6 by Harris Road on the UP Chester Subdivision. MASPB is often configured 1 X 1 and around 10,000', but not today. At 3787 tons, the lone GE was enough to pull the train across the flat landscape of southwestern Illinois, southeast Missouri, and eastern Arkansas.

For the Macro Monday theme of something starting with a vowel.
I created this embroidery on a black T-shirt about 20 years ago using my computerized sewing/embroidery machine. Scanned in the reindeer clipart and configured the machine to embroider it. Used silver foil thread to embroider with. Oh and for the heart, I used glittery dimensional fabric paint. I've washed the T-shirt many times. It's held up pretty good, but it does look better from afar and not in macro mode!! ;-) HMM! :-)
Photographed in my friend Laureen's yard, just down the street. I get Goldfinches in my own yard, but Laureen's trees are nicely configured for this species and provide some nice shooting angles and backgrounds.

It's another shot from the ski jumping competition that I recently attended at the Norge Ski Club, in Fox River Grove, Illinois. This shot not only shows a jumper in action, but also provides a better look at the plastic material that is used on the landing hill in warm weather when snow is not present.
The material is configured as mats that are laid out in overlapping fashion like shingles on a roof, and is said to provide a landing surface that simulates the surface of snow very well. The material is periodically sprayed with water during the competition.

Castillo, Berlanga de Duero, Soria, Castilla y León, España.
El castillo de Berlanga de Duero se encuentra en la población del mismo nombre, pertenece a la provincia de Soria y fue construido entre los siglos XV, cuando tuvo la función de castillo señorial, y en el XVI cuando se transformó en una fortaleza artillera. Con anterioridad, en los siglos X y XI, hubo una fortaleza musulmana que, en el XII, tras la conquista castellana, se amplió con el cinturón exterior amurallado que se conserva.
Bordeada por el río Escalote y abrazada por el Duero, se corona por la imponente silueta del castillo que la vigila desde el Coborrón. El conjunto monumental está formado por los restos de la fortaleza tardomedieval (siglo XV), la fortaleza artillera de época renacentista (siglo XVI), la muralla que ciñe el cerro en su base (siglo XII) y el Palacio de los Duques de Frías (siglo XVI).
El conjunto se inició entre los años 1460 y 1480 por encargo de D. Luis Tovar y doña María de Guzmán, que ordenaronn levantar el casillo señorial, para servir de fortaleza defensiva y residencia familiar, sobre un castillo anterior situado en lo alto del cerro, donde se localizaba la primitiva villa de Berlanga protegida por la muralla situada a los pies del cerro.
En el año 1512 se proyectó y comenzó a ejecutar el nuevo castillo, configurado como una fortaleza artillera, con fines militares. Esta nueva fortaleza se adaptó tanto a la topografía abrupta del terreno como a la construcción anterior (el castillo medieval señorial).
En el programa constructivo de los linajes Tovar y de los Duques de Frías se encontraba además la erección del palacio en el recinto interior de la muralla del siglo XII, adaptado a los nuevos modos de vida. Este palacio y sus jardines intramuros estructurados en diversos niveles sufrieron, en 1811, un incendio y una destrucción por parte de las tropas napoleónicas, por lo que en la actualidad solo se conserva su fachada principal.
Durante los años 2004-2005 se acometió por parte de la Junta de Castilla y León un Plan Director, un conjunto de planes y actuaciones orientadas a la mejor conservación, protección y revitalización de este rico patrimonio. Se incluyen estudios de investigación, consolidación y restauración de los restos del monumento o actuaciones en el entorno.
El castillo señorial (siglo XV) presenta planta rectangular, en la que destaca el cubo de planta circular, en el ángulo sur, y la torre del homenaje en el lado opuesto. En el interior, dos patios articulan el espacio: uno, a la entrada, más sencillo, funcionó como patio de armas; y el otro, se planteó como patio palacial porticado, con columnas góticas, tiene en el centro un aljibe con una conducción que lleva al depósito de agua.
A partir del castillo señorial medieval, en el siglo XVI se construyó la fortaleza artillera. Tiene planta rectangular con pontentes cubos en cada ángulo, orientados a los puntos cardinales, los dos delanteros albergan sendas casamatas para instalar la artillería de la fortaleza. Los muros, levantados con piedra de sillería de calidad, tienen cinco metros de espesor y se rematan con un parapeto inclinado para desviar los impactos de artillería.
The castle of Berlanga de Duero is located in the town of the same name, belongs to the province of Soria and was built between the fifteenth century, when it served as a stately castle, and the sixteenth when it was transformed into an artillery fortress. Previously, in the 10th and 11th centuries, there was a Muslim fortress that, in the 12th century, after the Castilian conquest, was extended with the outer walled belt that remains.
Bordered by the River Escalote and embraced by the Duero, it is crowned by the imposing silhouette of the castle that watches over it from the Coborrón. The monumental complex is made up of the remains of the late medieval fortress (15th century), the artillery fortress from the Renaissance period (16th century), the wall that surrounds the hill at its base (12th century) and the Palace of the Dukes of Frías ( century XVI).
The complex began between 1460 and 1480 by order of D. Luis Tovar and Doña María de Guzmán, who ordered the building of the stately castle, to serve as a defensive fortress and family residence, on top of a previous castle located on top of the hill. where the primitive town of Berlanga was located, protected by the wall located at the foot of the hill.
In the year 1512 the new castle was projected and began to be executed, configured as an artillery fortress, for military purposes. This new fortress was adapted both to the steep topography of the land and to the previous construction (the stately medieval castle).
In the construction program of the Tovar lineages and the Dukes of Frías was also the erection of the palace in the inner enclosure of the 12th century wall, adapted to the new ways of life. This palace and its intramural gardens structured on various levels suffered, in 1811, a fire and destruction by Napoleonic troops, so that today only its main façade remains.
During the years 2004-2005, the Junta de Castilla y León undertook a Master Plan, a set of plans and actions aimed at the best conservation, protection and revitalization of this rich heritage. Research studies, consolidation and restoration of the remains of the monument or actions in the environment are included.
The stately castle (15th century) has a rectangular floor plan, in which the circular cube in the southern corner stands out, and the homage tower on the opposite side. Inside, two patios articulate the space: one, at the entrance, simpler, functioned as a parade ground; and the other, designed as a porticoed palatial courtyard, with Gothic columns, has a cistern in the center with a conduit that leads to the water tank.
Starting from the medieval stately castle, the artillery fortress was built in the 16th century. It has a rectangular floor plan with powerful cubes at each angle, oriented to the cardinal points, the two front ones house casemates to install the fortress's artillery. The walls, raised with quality ashlar masonry stone, are five meters thick and are finished off with a sloping parapet to deflect artillery impacts.

C-GBHN, an Airbus A319-114, on approach to runway 06R at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario. It was arriving as ACA497 (Air Canada) from Ottawa, Ontario. The aircraft's cabin is configured with 58 Business Class seats. It is one of three A319s that are normally operated by Air Canada Jetz on professional sports team and concert tour related charters. The trio have been placed into scheduled passenger service on a temporary basis.
The example here is unique as it shows the luxurious interiors which were configured for Royal use by His Majesty The Sultan of Oman Qaboos bin Said Al Said who generously gifted the aircraft to Brooklands Museum on its retirement.

Had this sinking feeling one day last week. Years ago I configured my camera to emit a little chirp sound upon achieving focus lock. I figured my eyes were already full up with visual inputs, both from the camera but more importantly the scenes I was shooting. Engaging my sense of hearing to handle camera focus allowed me to free up my eyes for the creative aspects. Over the years it has become very instinctive to shoot this way. I am usually looking right through the viewfinder rather than at the actual display. It's also extremely handy when shooting blind (pointing the camera without using the viewfinder at all). The concept is to make the camera an extension of my own vision rather than allowing it to inhibit the creative process. So back to the other day, I noticed that the autofocus chirp had fallen silent. It wasn't that it had been disabled. It stopped because the lens was no longer locking up focus. I tried innumerable adjustments in the configuration screens thinking I had inadvertently bumped some setting. Nothing doing. The autofocus mechanism just wasn't working. I jumped onto youtube imagining this sort of thing was common and that someone would show me how to repair it. I was utterly overwhelmed by the sheer complexity inside of a modern lens. Electro-mechanical engineering at its finest, combined with advanced optics, and all packed into the narrowest confines. Just a few minutes into the first repair video showed me that I was way out of my league and DIY repairs were out of the question. I sent the lens off to a repair facility in hopes that it was something simple (and cheap). The estimate camera back yesterday and was way more than I bargained for. The lens would have to be almost completely rebuilt starting with the very pricey autofocus motor, and on and on. Simply not cost-effective to repair when a replacement lens could be had (think eBay) for less than half the repair estimate. Easy enough to purchase a replacement lens. But tough to let go of the old one. So many memories associated with old camera gear. The places I've gone, the experiences I've had; the sheer number of scenes visualized through that lens. Almost my entire flick photos stream was shot with this one lens. I probably won't part with it. I've still got nearly every camera I've ever owned. Very sentimental about these things. They are not packed away either. My old SLR film cameras are right here in my office and I look at them every day, though haven't used one in years. They mean that much to me.
At 4:19 p.m., August 12, 2025, with a temperature of 100º and humidity about the same, a CPKC loaded grain train bound for Mexico, slowly curves off Union Pacific's Cuero Subdivision onto the UP Angelton Sub at Placedo, Texas. Powering the train are three ragged-looking KCSdeM units configured 2-0-1.
In just three miles, the southbound train will roll onto the Brownsville Sub at Bloomington. CPKC's route from Houston to Laredo covers a patchwork of UP, ex-KCS and ex-Tex Mex trackage, and trains on CPKC's Rosenberg Sub make quite a zig-zag negotiating the route between Victoria and Bloomington.
The Cuero Sub is a former T&NO (SP) branch from north of Victoria to Port Lavaca on the Gulf Coast. Port Lavaca Junction, located near the distant road crossing in this photo, is a connection to Port Lavaca and several large industries.
The Angleton and Brownsville Subs are the former MoPac route from Houston to the Valley down to the southern tip of Texas at Brownsville.
This CPKC grain train will follow the UP Brownsville Sub to Robstown, Texas, where it will leave at Tex Mex Junction and travel over the old Texas Mexican Railway to Laredo on the Mexican border.
G-OBMN : Boeing 737-46B : British Midland Airways.
Arriving from Heathrow, approaching its stand on the west side of the terminal. These stands (1-5) were at this time solely configured for UK domestic flights.
Following terminal changes, they are now normally used for international traffic.
I discovered the Acorn Woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus) while scouting the moss-covered trunks at La Minga Ecolodge in Dapa, Valle del Cauca, Colombia. She held steady on a weathered branch, her vivid red cap and contrasting black-and-white plumage sharply outlined against the soft green understory. The mist-laden silence of the cloud forest allowed me to observe her alert posture and the intricate barring along her flanks before I raised the camera.
Technically, I had my EOS R5 configured for hummingbird action at ISO 800 and a blistering 1/4000 sec shutter speed when this woodpecker suddenly appeared. I fired instinctively, without time to tweak settings, and was pleased to find that the fast exposure beautifully froze her subtle head movements while retaining fine detail in shadowed bark. Framing her off-center with a narrow depth of field rendered the background into creamy bokeh, emphasizing the texture of both feathers and wood. This image underscores the value of readiness and adaptability in the field—sometimes the best shots come when you’re not thinking about settings at all.

Como un sueño
===================
TIP
(if you are interested / si le interesa.)
How to make a "dream" photo
1) Set the focus (light) to the Central point.
(usually the first of the three options.)
2) Focus the object with AF
3) Once focused switch to MF, do not touch the focus ring anymore.
4) Step ahead 1 inch and shoot.
(That way we achieve a natural blur where some parts may still remain in focus.)
Good luck
Cómo hacer una foto de "sueño"
1) Configure la cámara para enfocar (luz) el punto central.
(usualmente la primera opción de las tres.)
2) Enfoque el objeto con enfoque automático AF.
3) Ya enfocado el punto central cambie el enfoque a manual MF sin tocar más el anillo de enfoque.
4) Dé un paso adelante de apenas dos o tres centímetros y dispare.
(De esa manera logramos un desenfoque natural donde algunas partes aún pueden permanecer enfocadas.)

Le Tripode se trouvait sur l'île de Nantes, sur les rives de la Loire , le long du boulevard Louis-Barthou, près du pont Aristide-Briand et du boulevard Général-De-Gaulle. Le Tripode doit son nom à son plan configuré en forme d'étoile à trois branches. Après un an de désamiantage, le Tripode fut finalement démoli par dynamitage dans la matinée du 27 février 2005 devant 30.000 personnes, Sur l’emplacement qu’occupait l’immeuble « Le Tripode » avant sa démolition en 2005, le projet s'inscrit dans le plan d’urbanisme d’Alexandre Chemetoff. L’organisation du bâti de ce grand îlot a été faite pour y ménager un passage public traversant. Le quartier est organisé autour d’un canal ouvert sur la Loire, du nord au sud, avec des espaces publics prioritairement réservés aux piétons et aux circulations douces. La déclinaison du thème de l’eau, de sa gestion et de sa maîtrise, depuis les toitures des bâtiments jusqu’aux fils d’eau des trottoirs, en passant par des bassins et des jardins humides, contribue à l’identification de ce nouveau quartier et crée des liens avec les bâtiments épars qui le jouxtent.
The Tripode was on the island of Nantes, on the banks of the Loire, along the boulevard Louis-Barthou, near the Aristide-Briand bridge and the boulevard Général-De-Gaulle. The Tripod owes its name to its plan configured in the form of a three-pointed star. After a year of asbestos removal, Le Tripode was finally demolished by blasting on the morning of February 27, 2005 in front of 30,000 people. On the site occupied by the "Le Tripode" building before its demolition in 2005, the project is part Alexandre Chemetoff's urban plan. The organization of the building of this large block has been made to provide a through public passage. The district is organized around a canal open to the Loire, from north to south, with public spaces primarily reserved for pedestrians and soft traffic. The variation of the theme of water, its management and its control, from the roofs of buildings to the streams of the sidewalks, passing through ponds and wet gardens, contributes to the identification of this new neighborhood and creates links with the scattered buildings that adjoin it.

This morning at breakfast the sky configured to boast this great complete arc of a Rainbow. Here it straddles the befamed Wallace Line, purported by great naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace (1823-1913) to divide the western and eastern biospheres; he thought that his line ran exacty between Lombok and Bali. He was later shown to have been wrong...
Still this beautiful scene brought him to mind.

The Mileage Master - 1937 Chevrolet 1/2-Ton Pickup
Chevrolet's 1937 pickups proved their worth on the open road.
More than 80 years ago, Chevrolet needed to convince buyers that its light trucks were the most dependable, capable, and economical haulers on the road. So, the company cooked up a plan to send a new 1937 Chevrolet half-ton pickup, loaded with 1,000 pounds of weight, on a 10,000-plus-mile road trip, certified by the American Automobile Association. For the driving chores, they signed on race car driver Harry Hartz--a three-time Indianapolis 500 runner-up.
On December 23, 1936, Hartz wheeled the Chevrolet truck off the assembly line in Flint, Michigan, and headed northwest across Montana, Idaho, and into Washington. He then followed the West Coast south and traversed the U.S.-Mexico border to the Gulf of Mexico. After passing through the Gulf states and North Florida, he pointed the Chevrolet up the frigid East Coast, to Maine, then headed back to Michigan through New England. Hartz arrived back where he began on February 23, 1937--mission accomplished.
Some of the highlights from the truck's two-month-long, 10,244-mile odyssey are surprising even by modern standards. During 328 hours of running time, the Chevrolet averaged 20.74 mpg and a speed of 31.18 mph. It needed only a minor repair along the way that cost 73 cents, and oil consumption was reported to be more than 7 quarts, but that included an oil change en route to keep the truck's babbitt bearings protected.
Powering this road-proven Chevrolet was the new-for-1937 216.5-cu.in. Blue Flame six--the only engine offered in the company's trucks that year. The 216 was a more robust engine than its 206.8-cu.in. predecessor. The block was two inches shorter, with full-length water jackets, and its crankshaft spun in four main bearings. The oiling system, however, was still a low-pressure arrangement that Chevrolet described as "four-way" lubrication:
The 216 had a shorter stroke than its predecessor, at 33/4 inches, versus the 4-inch swing of the 207, but a larger 31/2-inch bore than the earlier six's 35⁄16-inch openings. For extra oomph, Chevrolet boosted the compression ratio a quarter of a point from 6:1 to 6.25:1. (Later 216s would have 6.5:1 compression). The new engine was factory rated at 78 hp @ 3,200 rpm and 170 lb-ft of torque. (In passenger cars, it was rated at 85 hp and 170 lb-ft of torque.) Rounding out the powertrain on Chevrolet's half-ton trucks was a three-speed manual transmission with a floor-shift and a 4.11:1 final-drive ratio.
The engine wasn't the only new feature Chevrolet was boasting about in its 1937 haulers. Also that year, it introduced an all-steel cab with taller front and rear glass, for a better view of the road or job site. The front end was restyled to strongly resemble Chevrolet passenger cars, with a similar (but not interchangeable) grille, as well as painted headlamp pods mounted to the sides of the radiator surround.
Inside the cockpit, a bench seat was divided into two sections with adjustable cushions and backs. In pickups, the fuel filler was accessed by raising the passenger side seat cushion and unscrewing a bung on the top of the tank. For 1938, a more conventional external filler pipe was routed outside the cab on the passenger side. To further blur the lines between its cars and light trucks, Chevrolet equipped both with similarly styled and configured instruments, switchgear, etc. As the company pointed out in promotional literature: "The same easy control that is yours in a passenger car is provided for the driver of a Chevrolet truck. The instrument dials are directly in front of him. Close by his right hand are the choke, throttle, and light controls. There is even a package compartment, with lock, in the panel. Clutch and brake pedals operate at light pressures."
The instrument cluster was well appointed, for the time, with a 100-mph, AC-branded speedometer in the center, gasoline and water temperature gauges to the left, and amperes and oil pressure gauges on the right. Simple paneling disguised most metal interior surfaces, and a rubber floor mat covered the floor.
Optional creature comforts indoors included a radio, a heater, a clock, a cigarette lighter, and seat covers. Outside, buyers could pile on extras like a rear bumper, a right-hand taillamp, an outside rearview mirror, fog lamps, a spotlamp, whitewalls, and more.
The half-ton's chassis was redesigned for the 1937 model year, too, and built rugged enough for light hauling chores. The reinforced frame rails were made from 9/64-inch #1025 hot-rolled, pressed steel, measuring 2¼ by 5¾ inches. Tying the frame together were five stout crossmembers, plus there were beefed-up engine mounts, spring hangers, and steering brackets.
In the rear, there was a "Monorail" spare tire carrier that clamped the tire beneath the bed with a locking bolt, to guard against theft. The carrier was also designed to make raising and lowering the spare tire under the truck easier on the operator.
Chevrolet's 1937 1/2-ton pickups were 183 inches long, from nose to tailgate, and rode on a 112-inch wheelbase. The whole package tipped the scales at 2,945 pounds, with a 4,400-pound GVW. When it came time to test that GVW, operators had a wood-decked box at their disposal that measured 77 inches long and 451/4 inches wide inside. The 1937 model's cargo box also benefitted from a redesign that stretched it out 5 inches from earlier trucks.
To shoulder whatever load owners might pile on, Chevrolet equipped its littlest pickups with eight-leaf springs front and rear, as well as Delco hydraulic shock absorbers to help smooth out the bumps. When it was time to stop, Chevrolet's light haulers relied on 11-inch hydraulic drum brakes, borrowed from the company's passenger-car line, fitted with 13/4-inch-wide linings, front and rear.
By 1937, light-truck sales in the U.S. were heating up, thanks to their versatility and low operating costs--as demonstrated by Harry Hartz's trip around the country for less than a penny per mile. Chevrolet moved 88,867 1/2-tons that year, 64,420 of which were pickups. The 1937 redesign rolled through 1938 with some minor updates, and in 1939, Chevrolet unveiled a made-over light truck, identifiable by its more modern V-shaped windshield.

The Lancia Delta were factory built, 4 wheel drive rally race cars, expensive and very fast. And not unlike NASCAR, to be qualified, a certain number of street versions had to be built in order to be approved. The race versions were 4 cylinder small displacements, and both turbocharged and supercharged, and put out an outrageous about of horsepower. The combined boost from both systems provided both excellent low rpm power and high rpm power throughout it's entire range. The suspensions were optimized for racing and the cars were configured with engines near mid point of the car. And they weren't cheap with prices over $300,000 dollars when new. Today, you likely would see one going for over a million dollars at auction. The one above, or the piece of it, was a street version of the car, one of few produced. I do have full pics of the car, and a few of a race version if the interest level warrants putting them up...let me know

Racing along the picturesque shoreline of Ghost Lake, a striking trio of A-B-A configured EMD FP9 locomotives lead the Royal Canadian Pacific westward into the foothills of the Rockies on a private charter bound for Banff. Later that day, I caught up with the train again at Lake Louise, where they performed a run-around move, as seen in my previous post.

A bit like London buses; you wait ages for one, then two come along together!
Here we see a Spitfire Mk 1a leading a Mk Vc onto the Duxford grass. The Mk 1 type had been in service since 1937 and the Mk V which was essentially a Mk 1 with a more powerful engine, introduced late in 1940.
In this picture, we can see the difference between the 'a' wing on the leading Spitfire, which could carry 8 machine guns and the 'c' wing on the Mk V which could carry either 4 cannon, or 2 cannon and 4 machine guns. This one is configured for the latter.
Note also how the markings changed during the course of the war; the Mk 1 has the Dark Earth with Dark Green topsides camouflage pattern, whilst the Mk V shows the later scheme introduced after 1941 which replaced Dark Earth with Ocean Grey, which was found to be more effective. The Mk V also carries a couple of 'friend or foe' visual identification aids; a pale band around the fuselage immediately in front of the tail plane, and yellow wing leading edges, so the plane could be identified when seen head on.
Castillo, Berlanga de Duero, Soria, Castilla y León, España.
El castillo de Berlanga de Duero se encuentra en la población del mismo nombre, pertenece a la provincia de Soria y fue construido entre los siglos XV, cuando tuvo la función de castillo señorial, y en el XVI cuando se transformó en una fortaleza artillera. Con anterioridad, en los siglos X y XI, hubo una fortaleza musulmana que, en el XII, tras la conquista castellana, se amplió con el cinturón exterior amurallado que se conserva.
Bordeada por el río Escalote y abrazada por el Duero, se corona por la imponente silueta del castillo que la vigila desde el Coborrón. El conjunto monumental está formado por los restos de la fortaleza tardomedieval (siglo XV), la fortaleza artillera de época renacentista (siglo XVI), la muralla que ciñe el cerro en su base (siglo XII) y el Palacio de los Duques de Frías (siglo XVI).
El conjunto se inició entre los años 1460 y 1480 por encargo de D. Luis Tovar y doña María de Guzmán, que ordenaronn levantar el casillo señorial, para servir de fortaleza defensiva y residencia familiar, sobre un castillo anterior situado en lo alto del cerro, donde se localizaba la primitiva villa de Berlanga protegida por la muralla situada a los pies del cerro.
En el año 1512 se proyectó y comenzó a ejecutar el nuevo castillo, configurado como una fortaleza artillera, con fines militares. Esta nueva fortaleza se adaptó tanto a la topografía abrupta del terreno como a la construcción anterior (el castillo medieval señorial).
En el programa constructivo de los linajes Tovar y de los Duques de Frías se encontraba además la erección del palacio en el recinto interior de la muralla del siglo XII, adaptado a los nuevos modos de vida. Este palacio y sus jardines intramuros estructurados en diversos niveles sufrieron, en 1811, un incendio y una destrucción por parte de las tropas napoleónicas, por lo que en la actualidad solo se conserva su fachada principal.
Durante los años 2004-2005 se acometió por parte de la Junta de Castilla y León un Plan Director, un conjunto de planes y actuaciones orientadas a la mejor conservación, protección y revitalización de este rico patrimonio. Se incluyen estudios de investigación, consolidación y restauración de los restos del monumento o actuaciones en el entorno.
El castillo señorial (siglo XV) presenta planta rectangular, en la que destaca el cubo de planta circular, en el ángulo sur, y la torre del homenaje en el lado opuesto. En el interior, dos patios articulan el espacio: uno, a la entrada, más sencillo, funcionó como patio de armas; y el otro, se planteó como patio palacial porticado, con columnas góticas, tiene en el centro un aljibe con una conducción que lleva al depósito de agua.
A partir del castillo señorial medieval, en el siglo XVI se construyó la fortaleza artillera. Tiene planta rectangular con pontentes cubos en cada ángulo, orientados a los puntos cardinales, los dos delanteros albergan sendas casamatas para instalar la artillería de la fortaleza. Los muros, levantados con piedra de sillería de calidad, tienen cinco metros de espesor y se rematan con un parapeto inclinado para desviar los impactos de artillería.
The castle of Berlanga de Duero is located in the town of the same name, belongs to the province of Soria and was built between the fifteenth century, when it served as a stately castle, and the sixteenth when it was transformed into an artillery fortress. Previously, in the 10th and 11th centuries, there was a Muslim fortress that, in the 12th century, after the Castilian conquest, was extended with the outer walled belt that remains.
Bordered by the River Escalote and embraced by the Duero, it is crowned by the imposing silhouette of the castle that watches over it from the Coborrón. The monumental complex is made up of the remains of the late medieval fortress (15th century), the artillery fortress from the Renaissance period (16th century), the wall that surrounds the hill at its base (12th century) and the Palace of the Dukes of Frías ( century XVI).
The complex began between 1460 and 1480 by order of D. Luis Tovar and Doña María de Guzmán, who ordered the building of the stately castle, to serve as a defensive fortress and family residence, on top of a previous castle located on top of the hill. where the primitive town of Berlanga was located, protected by the wall located at the foot of the hill.
In the year 1512 the new castle was projected and began to be executed, configured as an artillery fortress, for military purposes. This new fortress was adapted both to the steep topography of the land and to the previous construction (the stately medieval castle).
In the construction program of the Tovar lineages and the Dukes of Frías was also the erection of the palace in the inner enclosure of the 12th century wall, adapted to the new ways of life. This palace and its intramural gardens structured on various levels suffered, in 1811, a fire and destruction by Napoleonic troops, so that today only its main façade remains.
During the years 2004-2005, the Junta de Castilla y León undertook a Master Plan, a set of plans and actions aimed at the best conservation, protection and revitalization of this rich heritage. Research studies, consolidation and restoration of the remains of the monument or actions in the environment are included.
The stately castle (15th century) has a rectangular floor plan, in which the circular cube in the southern corner stands out, and the homage tower on the opposite side. Inside, two patios articulate the space: one, at the entrance, simpler, functioned as a parade ground; and the other, designed as a porticoed palatial courtyard, with Gothic columns, has a cistern in the center with a conduit that leads to the water tank.
Starting from the medieval stately castle, the artillery fortress was built in the 16th century. It has a rectangular floor plan with powerful cubes at each angle, oriented to the cardinal points, the two front ones house casemates to install the fortress's artillery. The walls, raised with quality ashlar masonry stone, are five meters thick and are finished off with a sloping parapet to deflect artillery impacts.
