La primera noticia documental que se conserva del edificio data del año 1122,el Alcázar segoviano ha sido castro
romano, fortaleza medieval, palacio real, custodio del tesoro real, prisión de estado, Real Colegio de Artillería y Archivo General Militar.
Construido en el siglo XII sirvió de inspiración en algunas de las películas de Disney más icónicas. Las similitudes entre Segovia y Cenicienta se pueden encontrar en la fachada de ladrillo de los edificios, las torres y la ubicación, pero no se queda sólo ahí, pues también sirvió para levantar el castillo de la Reina en Blancanieves.
He first documentary news that is conserved of the building dates from the year 1122, the Alcazar of Segovia has been Roman castro, medieval fortress, royal palace, custodian of the royal treasure, state prison, Royal College of Artillery and General Military Archive.
Built in the 12th century, it inspired some of the most iconic Disney movies. The similarities between Segovia and Cinderella can be found on the brick façade of buildings, towers and location, but not only is it there, but it also served to lift the Queen's Castle in Snow White.
The Church was built in 1799 on the former Caminho dos Pinheiros, today Rua da Consolação, with the help of alms from devotees to Our Lady of Consolation and with the endorsement of the diocesan bishop Mateus de Abreu Pereira were able to begin its construction, with the technique of taipa, quite common at the time. The oldest record of its construction is a document transcribed by Jacinto Ribeiro, in which it attributes the idealization of the temple to the faithful Luiz da Silva and his brothers. Located in a boggy and marshy region there is another document proving the Church's ancient existence: on November 23, 1803, an office was registered that showed the need for drinking water for the residents of the neighborhood "Nossa Senhora da Consolação". In view of the custom of baptizing the district with religious names, mainly related to sanctuaries, the Church, besides already existing, corresponded to an important piece for the functioning of the region. And, in the year 1810, a plant in the city of São Paulo contained the chapel.
Document capture, great to see one !

Thank you very much for your kind comments, favorites and looking and please stay safe !
This is one of the most photographed abandoned vessels in western Ireland, being as it sits in the heart of Galway where every tourist can see it. The county council says they have no power to remove it, so we've all been treated to documenting the deterioration year after passing year.

The leader but never wants to miss out on anything.
I'm going to miss these mini cats but I still have them for another couple of weeks.
Met-up with Mart a couple of weekends ago at this simple but impressive folly which has been on the list for a couple of years. Just a simple shot using the LACE Backlight Scanner and some side lighting provided by Klarus XT11GT. Captured on Sony A7iii with adapted Olympus Zuiko lens 24mm f2.8.

Shrugging off the weather, the CP business train was on the Sabula draw bridge as the rain poured down and the Mississippi was on the rise. Also shrugging off the weather were the many photographers out chasing this thing.
Since the CP business train most likely will never have a GP20C ECO splitting a pair of FP9s again, this was a consist that required documentation.
And yes, Guss forged that water like a nimble ninja to perch himself on those slick rocks like a professional documentary photographer should.
My cousin has some Matilija poppies growing on his property so I documented the one that I could get closest to.
Lighting stuff: Lit with one manual Yongnuo flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box, hand held at 10 o'clock above the flower. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set that has over 1300 images in it. In the description for each image, I describe the lighting setup that I used. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/

La Puerta Norte (a Porta Norte -port.) del recinto amurallado de origen romano de Idanha-a-Velha (Idanha la Vieja - cast.), una aldea histórica y freguesia del concelho de Idanha-a-Nova, situada en el Distrito de Castelo Branco, Región del Centro, subregión de la Beira Interior Sur, antigua provincia de la Beira Baixa, Portugal.
En el recinto fortificado de Idanha-a-Velha queda un tramo de 745 m de la muralla romana fechada de los siglos II-III-IV. Posteriormente esta muralla fue remodelada por los musulmanos en el siglo IX y reforzada por los templarios a finales del siglo XIII-principios del siglo XIV cuando Idanha-a-Velha formaba parte de las posesiones de la Orden del Temple.
LA LEYENDA SOBRE EL RELOJ SOLAR DEL ROMANO:
Idanha-a-Velha es una de las poblaciones más antiguas de Portugal y de toda la Península Ibérica, pero el primer documento que la menciona es una lápida con la inscrpción del año 16 A.C., cuando esta localidad era una ciudad romana llamada Civitas Igaeditanorum.
Este documento pétreo fue descubierto en 1905 entre las piedras del muro medieval construido por los templarios. En la lápida está escrito que un tal Q.Lallius mandó construir por su cuenta un reloj (ORARIUM) y lo donó a los IGAIDITANIS (habitantes de la ciudad Igaeditanorum). Desde aquel momento los expertos intentan averiguar quién fue este enigmático Q.Lallius, por qué él decidió hacer este regalo a los vecinos de esta ciudad y conmemorar este hecho, así como, si se trataba de un reloj de agua (clepsidra) o un reloj solar...
Pero la única respuesta por el momento ha aparecido sólo en la leyenda que ha interpretado aquella historia de modo propio:
Esta historia que tuvo lugar en la época de las invasión romana cuenta cuán complicado puede ser el contacto con las personas de otras culturas. Al principio los lusitanos que vivían en estas tierras resistían a la imposición de las costumbres romanas. Pero cuando las barreras culturales fueron superadas, se aclaró que en el conocimiento de las tradiciones ajenas había sus ventajas y beneficios…
Un día a Civitas Igaeditanorum llegó Quintus Lallius, constructor romano de estradas y puentes, hombre hábil, inteligente, ingenioso y competente en la organización de su trabajo. El maestro fue enviado a Civitas Igaeditanorum para construir un puente y una muralla. Inicialmente su misión se realizaba muy bien, pues los vecinos IGAIDITANIS eran amables, simpáticos y dispuestos a colaborar. Pero pronto empezaron los problemas.
Quintus Lallius estaba habituado a un determinado ritmo de vida, cumplía lo que acordaba y no tenía paciencia para las demoras inútiles. Mientras tanto los IGADITANIS vivían despreocupadamente y cuando prometían entregar las piedras necesarias para la construcción por la mañana, a lo mejor aparecían por la tarde o al día siguiente. Y había una impresión de que a ellos no les importaban en absoluto aquellos atrasos, pues ellos siempre estaban sonrientes y tranquilos como si no pasase nada desagradable o inconveniente.
Los IGADITANIS consideraban que se podía perder a un cabrito, una oveja o una gallina, mas el tiempo no se perdía, porque aquel hecho no era visible y palpable - y además, después de un momento temporal venía otro tiempo…
Entonces, casi desesperado, Quintus Lallius entregó a los vecinos de la ciudad los gallos y les convenció que se despertasen al oír por la mañana el canto de gallo. Durante unos días parecía que aquella sugerencia llevó a los resultados positivos. Pero al cabo de poco tiempo volvió el desorden anterior: los vecinos ya acostumbrados al canto de gallo simplemente se olvidaban de sus promesas o preferían dedicar esta hora al desayuno, o encontraban otras cosas que hacer…
Pobre Quintus Lallius, que estaba tan orgulloso de su sabiduría, no encontraba solución para este problema. Entonces vino de Roma su esposa y al ver la desesperación de su marido le aconsejó que él regalase a los trabajadores un reloj de sol, pues tal vez así ellos se acostumbrasen a respetar el tiempo. Quintus Lallius se apresuró a mandar que se tallase un reloj de sol y los vecinos del pueblo, sorprendidos y atraídos por aquel objeto tan curioso, poco a poco se habituaron a distinguir las horas y cumplir con el horario. El maestro, muy contento, para conmemorar aquel éxito ordenó grabar en una piedra el texto siguiente:
"Quintus Lallius, ciudadano de Merida Augusta, dió de buena voluntad un reloj de sol a los IGADITANIS"...
La lápida con la inscripción conmemorativa en latín, así como el puente y unos tramos amurallados costruídos por Quintus Lallius resistieron al tiempo y todavía pueden ser admirados en Civitas Igaeditanorum que cambió de nombre y ahora se llama Idanha-a-Velha...

PICCOLO MONDO MARITTIMO.
Nonostante il crescente sviluppo dell'attività alberghiera, Caorle conserva sempre il suo caratteristico aspetto di città marinara e la pesca rappresenta ancor oggi una delle attività preminenti della popolazione.
La pesca nella laguna di Caorle ha una storia importante. Uno dei primi e più interessanti documenti risale al XV secolo. Nel 1439 il doge Francesco Foscari, con la Dogale del 15 dicembre "Sul Privileggio delle Acque", riconosce alla comunità caorlotta il possesso ed il godimento di tutte la acque comprese tra le foci dei fiumi Livenza e Tagliamento, con diritto esclusivo di pesca e caccia.
Nel secondo decennio del 1900 l'impoverimento della pesca in laguna consiglia i pescatori a trasferirsi in mare. Vengono acquistati i primi Bragozzi, le tipiche barche da pesca lagunari, che ormeggiano nel Porto della Sacheta (davanti al Santuario della Madonna dell'Angelo) o nel Porto Peschereccio interno.
I Bragozzi rappresentano l'ultimo traguardo della pesca tradizionale, quella compiuta a vela e con pesanti fatiche umane. Nella seconda metà del XX secolo nel Porto Peschereccio di Caorle iniziano ad arrivare i grossi motopesca, imbarcazioni che, oltre a garantire una maggior sicurezza ai marinai, riducono di molto la fatica fisica degli uomini.

Возвращаясь к вопросу о заброшенном кинотеатре «Энтузиаст»
(www.behance.net/gallery/168238573/zabroshennyj-kinoteatr-...)
I really had to crank down and draw a self portrait during the course of one night, so i decided to document it.
Quick snapshot & staying safe - Knoxville, TN USA - efforts to minimize the risk (COVID-19). Picking up a pup cone for my pup.
The girls were indeed smiling..can you tell by the eyes?
I was really pumped to get out and shoot some cars this weekend. My weekend goal was to do at least one car session, and document it for hopes of blogging it later.
This was the first shoot of the weekend and one of the most fun rig sessions I have done in a while.
It was also frustrating at times; I underestimated just how busy it would be down this back alley in the heart of Regina's downtown district.
We had to take off the boom once and direct several other cars around our area.
Before long, we were able to get the shots we wanted and move on.
I love the brick along the left side of the frame, it creates those strong parallel lines and the angle is just wide enough to get some of the buildings on the other side of the frame to get that balance and draw the eye back through the rest of the image.
Air Force Master Sgt. Todd Davis from the Kapisa/Parwan Provincial Reconstruction Team takes photos to document construction progress on Masab High School near Mahmood Raqi, Afghanistan, March 14. An Air Force non-commission officer, Staff Sgt. Timothy Bowles, and three Soldiers were killed on a similar PRT mission in Nangarhar Province one day later when their convoy vehicle was destroyed by an improvised explosive device on the way to visit a local school near Jalalabad, Afghanistan.
No photo album documenting operations at the Nevada Northern Railway Museum would be complete without photos of this most famous member of the museum crew. This guy first turned up in the East Ely engine house as a kitten in 2008. Whether an orphan or a stray, the crew noticed him around and eventually took pity on the little guy. They fed him and eventually adopted him, taking him to the vets for shots and getting him neutered. He was initially named "Dirtball or Dirtbag", simply because of his obviously filthy appearance. Later, his name was shortened to simply "Dirt."
For years, he quietly existed as the crew's private pet until one day, someone got the idea to show him off on social media, and a star was born. There was a point in time when people, who really didn't care about railroads, would tune into Facebook and other social media outlets to see the many cool photos of him. He even became a sort of spokeskitty for safety topics.
I first encountered him during a 2015 winter photo shoot. Although not the world's friendliest cat, he was kind enough to pose for pictures. I wasn't about to drag him around and pose him with steam engines as some apparently did. I guess I just felt sorry for the little guy as cats are habitual groomers and licking all of that grime off his fur could not have been good for him. That said, despite the dangerous environment, he lived for an amazing 15 years, passing in 2023. Other cats have since taken on his role. He certainly had mastered the look of an engine house cat.
This guys are in charge to control motos crossing the barangays (districts) in PH. After they controlled me they noted that I had my camera and asked me to picture them :) funny moment !

Das Augsburger Rathaus, ein Werk des Baumeisters Elias Holl, wurde von 1615 bis 1624 an der Ostseite des Rathausplatzes von Augsburg errichtet. Der 57 Meter hohe Profanbau gilt als einer der bedeutendsten der Renaissancearchitektur nördlich der Alpen und stellt zusammen mit dem Perlachturm das Wahrzeichen der Stadt dar. Bis 1917 war es das höchste Gebäude Deutschlands. Bei dem Bombenangriff auf Augsburg im Februar 1944 wurde das Rathaus von mehreren Spreng- und Brandbomben getroffen und brannte bis auf die Außenmauern vollständig aus. Nach dem Krieg wurde das Gebäude – äußerlich in historischer, im Inneren in vereinfachter Form – wiederaufgebaut und ab 1955 wieder als Rathaus genutzt. In den Jahren 1980 bis 1984 erhielt die Fassade des Rathauses im Zuge umfassender Sanierungsarbeiten ihre (nach historischen Unterlagen rekonstruierte) ursprüngliche Farbgebung wieder. Am 9. Januar 1985 konnte das Augsburger Rathaus im Rahmen des 2000-jährigen Stadtjubiläums zunächst äußerlich in neuer alter Pracht wiedereröffnet werden. Im Inneren des Renaissancebaus wurde der im Krieg vernichtete Goldene Saal bis 1996 originalgetreu wiederhergestellt.

Augsburg City Hall, a work of the architect Elias Holl, was built on the east side of the Augsburg City Hall Square from 1615 to 1624. The 57-metre high secular building is considered one of the most important Renaissance buildings north of the Alps and, together with the Perlach Tower, is the city's landmark. Until 1917 it was the highest building in Germany. During the bombing raid on Augsburg in February 1944, the town hall was hit by several high explosive and incendiary bombs and burnt out completely, except for the outer walls. After the war, it was rebuilt - on the outside in its historic form, on the inside in a simplified form - and from 1955 it was used again as a City Hall. In the years 1980 to 1984, the façade of the town hall regained its original colouring (reconstructed according to historical documents) in the course of extensive renovation work. On January 9, 1985, as part of the 2000th anniversary of the city of Augsburg, the City Hall was reopened in its new, old splendour. Inside the Renaissance building, the Golden Hall, which was destroyed in the war, was faithfully restored to its original state by 1996.

First of 8 visits to Quarry Falls.
We actually 'discovered' this waterfall on this visit as it had never been documented or known before thus Christian Montfield of Hamilton Conservation Authority is doing GPS at the waterfall.
Quarry Falls is located in the Clappison area of Hamilton.
THE ‘O’ WORD — Just minutes before a midnight deadline, the Justice Department filed a stunning response to former President DONALD TRUMP’s request for an independent review of the documents seized from his Florida home earlier this month.
The 36-page document is chock-full of previously unknown information, providing an extensive timeline of how the government worked to recover classified material before the unprecedented search of Mar-a-Lago. It is the clearest and most detailed account yet offered of what preceded the Aug. 8 seizure and forcefully rebuts attacks from Trump and his allies — going so far to claim that “government records were likely concealed” from prosecutors and “efforts were likely taken to obstruct the government’s investigation.”
The DOJ filing says Trump’s request for a special master “is unnecessary and would significantly harm important governmental interests,” dismissing it as an attempt to slow down the investigation. It also claims Trump has no standing to sue because the records belong to the government, not to him. And, notably, prosecutors placed a photo of some of the seized documents — strewn across a Mar-a-Lago carpet with their classified markings plain to see — into the public court record.
Trump and his allies have claimed executive privilege over the documents, but prosecutors rejected that assertion — arguing that executive privilege is usually invoked to protect communications from the legislative or judicial branch, not within the executive branch itself. The prosecution team, led by DOJ counterintelligence chief JAY BRATT, also points out that Trump never once asserted executive privilege or declassified the documents prior to the search.
As our Josh Gerstein and Kyle Cheney write, “Even if there were circumstances in which a former president could assert privilege, Bratt argues, this scenario would not come close. Intelligence officials are currently reviewing the recovered files to assess risks to national security, and any disruption to that could jeopardize the review DOJ contends.”
In an eye-popping statement that underscores how sensitive the documents were, the prosecutors write that “even the FBI counterintelligence personnel and DOJ attorneys conducting the review required additional clearances before they were permitted to review certain documents.”
An interesting nugget from NYT’s Glenn Thrush, Charlie Savage, Alan Feuer and Maggie Haberman : “The department’s decision to use a court filing as a vehicle to provide a more extensive explanation of the government’s actions — and a rebuke of Mr. Trump’s rotating roster of legal representatives — evolved over the last few days and lawyers wrangled over small details until moments before it was filed, according to people familiar with the situation.”
The most serious revelation … In the filing, the DOJ says the reason they sought a warrant to search Mar-a-Lago in the first place was only after (1) they obtained evidence that classified material was likely moved and concealed and (2) Trump’s lawyers worked to mislead the government about their cooperation in identifying and recovering the sensitive docs.
“That the FBI, in a matter of hours, recovered twice as many documents with classification markings as the ‘diligent search’ that the former President’s counsel and other representatives had weeks to perform calls into serious question the representations made in the June 3 certification and casts doubt on the extent of cooperation in this matter,” Bratt wrote, referring to an unnamed Trump rep’s affidavit.
The filing also challenges Trump allies’ claims that the former president’s team was cooperative, as WaPo’s Devlin Barrett writes : “In parts of the filing, using only their job descriptions, prosecutors paint Trump’s lawyer, EVAN CORCORAN, and custodian of records, CHRISTINA BOBB , as so uncooperative as to lead agents to suspect the Trump team might be obstructing the investigation.”
