Nicht nur ich als Fotograf, sondern auch die Kohlmeise hat sich für Neues interessiert und sich der Gefahr des Neuen ausgesetzt. Ich hatte nur die Gefahr, dass sich die Tiere vor dem sonderbaren Gerät fürchten und meiden. Die Tiere wittern möglicherweise aber dahinter eine Falle, in der sie gefangen werden. Dem Mutigen, hier eine Kohlmeise, gehört die Welt, bzw. das bereit gelegte Futter.
Dare something new
Not only I as a photographer, but also the great tit was interested in new things and exposed to the danger of the new. I had only the danger that the animals are afraid of the strange device and avoid. However, the animals possibly smell behind it a trap in which they are caught. The brave one, here a great tit, owns the world, respectively the ready laid food.
i made this photograph on beautiful day in june 2016 while visiting a dear friend in mantova. her father is un maestro orologiaio, and this clockwork is one of his charges. i thought about this photo this morning, probably because the maestro has recently celebrated a birthday. buona giornata alla famiglia gorla.

Rathaus underground station in Cologne, Germany
A pleasing contrast of midnight blue and silvery gleam
When completed, the new north–south suburban railway line in Cologne will have eight stops. While the last stretch of the line is scheduled to come into operation in 2016, Rathaus station has already proven itself fit for everyday operation. Located directly beneath the historic market, Rathaus underground station provides quick and convenient access to the centre of Cologne's historic Altstadt (old town) district, which was previously only accessible by bus.
The station, covering almost 3,000 m², lies 16 metres below ground. Its design is characterised by a fresh contrast of midnight blue and silver. A large proportion of the wall area is velvety-smooth blue, while the ceilings and certain sections of the walls are a shiny silver. The walls and ceilings are clad in hot-dip galvanised and powdercoated steel sheet modules, which are perforated in the ceiling area so that they also absorb sound.
Above the entrances, main traffic areas and footpaths throughout the station, WE-EF DOC240 recessed exterior downlights ensure excellent visibility and safety as well as aid orientation. The luminaires had to be integrated into various building situations – either installed in circular sections of the expanded metal ceilings or combined with an installation tube and mounted directly on the concrete ceilings. The DOC240 downlights in the underground station have proven to be versatile, not just in terms of the installation and mounting options, but also in relation to lighting techniques.
While the stairways and escalators are illuminated from a relatively high position, the height between floors in the main traffic areas is rather low. With different light sources in varying wattages – in this case HIT and CFL lamps, and two symmetric light distributions [M] medium and [EE] very narrow beam – the WE-EF luminaires provide exactly the right amount of light for the unique spaces.
All DOC240 downlights used in this project are fitted with vibration protection in order to extend their service life. Luminaires mounted at especially high installation positions are equipped with a device to lower the luminaire to facilitate ease of maintenance.

Selon une légende reprise par plusieurs auteurs, l'histoire de ce château se raconte ainsi :
« C'est en contrebas et sur le flanc sud ouest de l'ancien fort médiéval d’Autoire, qu'un dénommé Lafon avait sa demeure.
Pour récompenser sa bravoure sur les champs de bataille d'Italie, le roi Charles VIII l'aurait récompensé en le faisant Chevalier et en lui donnant ainsi le privilège d'avoir un logis avec tours et mâchicoulis qui était un droit attaché à la noblesse.
Le nouveau Chevalier Lafon aurait alors ajouté à son logis de simples tours et gravé sur un linteau de l’une d’entre elle le blason qu'il s'était choisi, une étoile, peut-être celle qui porte chance. »
La demeure s'articule autour d'une tour d'escalier à vis, logée dans l'angle réunissant les 2 corps de logis. La porte principale, au bas de la tour, est ornée d'un arc torique sculpté en accolade, caractéristique de l'ornementation prisée dans le dernier quart du XVe siècle et le début du XVIe siècle.
Dans la partie haute de la tour qui permet à l'escalier distribue les cinq niveaux d'habitation, se greffe une guette en encorbellement surmontée d'une toiture en poivrière qui permettait d'atteindre la pièce aménagée au dernier étage.
La seconde tour est plus imposante : armée de canonnières elle participait à la défense de l'édifice dont le sommet était couronné de mâchicoulis, mais il ne reste plus rien de ce dispositif. Les deux corps de logis ont été remaniés aux XVIIe et XIXe siècles, lors du percement de fenêtres à l'emplacement d'anciennes croisées en pierre.
La tour fait l’objet d’une inscription au titre des monuments historiques depuis le 6 avril 1929.
According to a legend taken up by several authors, the history of this castle is told as follows:
"It is below and on the southwest flank of the old medieval fort of Autoire, that a man named Lafon had his home.
To reward his bravery on the battlefields of Italy, King Charles VIII would have rewarded him by making him a Knight and thus giving him the privilege of having a home with towers and machicolations which was a right attached to the nobility.
The new Chevalier Lafon would then have added simple towers to his home and engraved on a lintel of one of them the coat of arms he had chosen for himself, a star, perhaps the one that brings luck. "
The house is built around a spiral staircase tower, housed in the corner uniting the 2 main buildings. The main door, at the bottom of the tower, is adorned with a toric arch carved in an accolade, characteristic of the ornamentation prized in the last quarter of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century.
In the upper part of the tower, which leads to the staircase leading to the five levels of living, is grafted a corbelled lookout surmounted by a pepperbox roof which made it possible to reach the room on the top floor.
The second tower is more imposing: armed with gunboats, it participated in the defense of the building whose top was crowned with machicolations, but nothing remains of this device. The two main buildings were altered in the 17th and 19th centuries, when windows were drilled on the site of old stone windows.
The tower has been listed as a historic monument since April 6, 1929.

Español:
Repetimos el viaje de seguir por las costas de gallegas y degustar sus manjares con productos de la mar.
El problema es que debes proseguir el viaje por que no vas solo y llegas al destino fijado y allí no te acompallan las luces o el tiempo, pero debes mirar de capturar fotos interesantes.
En los viales que no estoy solo, suelo llevarme la Lumix FZ150 con lente Leica por su poco peso.
La foto la tomé en cuclillas para controlar con la flexión de las piernas, que la barca no me tapara el bonito paisaje que había detrás de ella.
Datos del disparo:
El Iso lo programé a 200 por que el cielo estaba cubierto y si de pronto salía el Sol podía jugar con la velocidad, por que tiraba con diafragma fijado en F/8 para lograr la máxima calidad de imagen de la lente.
Con un objetivo 24 m/m y a una velocidad en este caso por que salio el Sol, fué de 1/320.
English:
We repeat the trip to continue along the Galician coast and taste its delicacies with seafood.
The problem is that you must continue the trip because you do not go alone and arrive at the destination set and there you do not have the lights or the weather, but you must try to capture interesting photos.
In the vials that I am not alone, I usually take the Lumix FZ150 with Leica lens because of its light weight.
I took the photo squatting to control with the flexion of my legs, that the boat did not cover the beautiful landscape behind it.
Shot data:
I programmed the Iso to 200 because the sky was covered and if the sun suddenly came out I could play with the speed, because I would shoot with an aperture set at F / 8 to achieve the maximum image quality of the lens.
With a 24 m / m objective and at a speed in this case because the Sun rose, it was 1/320.
The Ministry of Time
Chapter III: The Saboteur's Plan
The style card and credits here
When Richard materialized in the bustling streets of New York in the year 2025, he immediately felt a disturbance in the temporal fabric. People were passing by in a hurry, unaware of the imminent danger lurking in the shadows. Following the coordinates provided by the Ministry, Richard and his companion headed towards the vicinity of a nuclear plant. As they approached, they saw a suspicious figure hunched over a device of peculiar appearance typing rapidly on it. With stealth and precision, Richard approached the saboteur, while his pulse throbbed with electric intensity. Suddenly, footsteps were heard resonating beside him, and Agent Pablo Torres emerged from the shadows, his weapon drawn and ready.
"We have you now," proclaimed Pablo with firm and authoritative voice.
The saboteur leaped and started running as Richard and Pablo chased after him. At a certain point, he abruptly stopped and with a cold smile on his face, rummaged in a pocket and pulled out a small device that he activated with a click. With a dazzling flash of light, a temporal distortion opened before him. Before Richard or Pablo could react, the saboteur disappeared into the temporal vortex, leaving the agents astonished and without clues to follow his trail.
Back at the Ministry, Richard and Pablo faced the harsh reality of their failure. The saboteur had escaped, leaving behind more questions than answers. As they discussed what had happened, Richard noticed that Pablo was out of breath, with a hand on his chest.
"Are you okay, Pablo?" asked Richard, concerned.
Pablo nodded with a weak smile. "I don't think I'll be able to join you in the next pursuit," he admitted.
Richard furrowed his brow, visibly worried about his friend's health. Later, after leaving Pablo in the infirmary, Richard reflected with amazement: "It's the first time we've seen interdimensional portals open wherever one desires. This complicates things a lot."
With time running out, they knew they had to redouble their efforts to stop the saboteur's sinister plans and protect the timeline at all costs.

The girls remained in Adrienne’s living room, but everything felt eerily altered.
“They can’t see us, but we can see them,” Kayla whispered. “I moved us between dimensions.”
Through the thick fog that now separated them from their previous reality, Adrienne clung tightly to Kayla’s hand, watching the two men enter the room. Their movements were sharp, calculated, as they began combing the house.
“No one’s here. Check the device,” one commanded.
The other rushed to the closet, his fingers trailing the empty space on the shelf where the device had been only moments ago. “It was here. Now it’s gone. They were here… and they have it.
A deep, guttural growl rumbled from the bald man as he surveyed the room.
Then, abruptly, he turned—his stare locking onto Adrienne and Kayla, as if he could see beyond the veil. His nostrils flared as he inhaled deeply… Adrienne held her breath.
“The stench is strong. They were here. Not long ago. Maybe they still are.” His voice was rough, primal, as his gaze scoured the space. “We will return. We’ll track their signal.”
Again, he took in the air, then slashed a hand through the space where the girls stood. It passed through harmlessly, though he swung again. And again.
Frustration boiled beneath his skin, erupting into another low growl. “I will have you both.” With that final promise, the two men turned and left.

So strange how when you change devices, the luminosity changes. For example, this photo looks too dark on my computer, but not on other devices! Hummm
One of three photos taken after I went for a walk, when the blue skies came out and drove away the rain and overcast skies. There were two bouts of rain showers but I felt so good to be outdoors trying to physically distance from other people enjoying the outdoors.
Stay hopeful and healthy!

I was rummaging through some stuff recently and came across a little demonstration circuit board that I obtained during my working career as a trade journalist. The board contained this device, which is smaller than my thumbnail, and I thought it might make a cool macro.
I don't remember a lot about it, but I think this device was intended to demonstrate the ability of the sponsoring company to construct tiny circuit connections. This would have been from the early 1990s, and must have been a device made for Sandia Labs and Aptos Corp. It was photographed at 2X magnification. You can zoom in for a closer look.

Absorbed in our devices, with our gazes lost, are we able to see each other anymore? Or have WE become the mannequins, just there to be looked at but without being really there?
