... im letzten Moment ...
das Idiom 'at the eleventh hour' (zur elften Stunde) entspricht im Deutschen der Redewendung 'Kurz / Fünf vor Zwölf' oder 'in der letzten Sekunde / im letzten Moment'
... bildlich konnte ich nur eine der Uhrzeiten darstellen, daher die Entscheidung für die 11-Uhr-Stellung :)
für die Gruppe Verrückter Dienstag - Thema: Zeit
Einen schönen Dienstag euch allen ... und bleibt gesund !

Instead of driving directly from Abbeville to Blonville Sur Mer we made a side trip to visit Jumièges Abbey. I am glad we did it's a remarkable ruin that sits in one of the bends of the River Seine west of Rouen . I particularly liked the delicate towers that reminded me of buildings I have seen it Italy . It has quite a history too.
The abbey was founded in 654 on a gift of forested land belonging to the royal family presented by Clovis II and his queen, Balthild. Under the second abbot, Saint Achard, Jumièges prospered and soon numbered nearly a thousand monks.
In the ninth century it was pillaged and burnt to the ground by the Vikings, but was rebuilt on a grander scale by William Longespee, Duke of Normandy. A new church was consecrated in 1067 in the presence of William the Conqueror.
Enjoying the patronage of the dukes of Normandy, the abbey became a great centre of religion and learning, its schools producing, amongst many other scholars, the national historian, William of Jumièges. It reached the zenith of its fame about the eleventh century, and was regarded as a model for all the monasteries of the province.
The church was enlarged in 1256, and again restored in 1573.
The fortunes of the abbey suffered somewhat through the English invasion of the fifteenth century, but it recovered and maintained its prosperity and high position until the whole province was devastated by the Huguenots during the Wars of Religion.
The French Revolution, ended its existence as a monastery, leaving only impressive ruins. These comprise the church, with its beautiful twin towers and western façade, and portions of the cloisters and library, the contents of which were removed to Rouen when the abbey was dissolved. In the middle of the former cloister, there is still a 500-year-old yew tree.

A few posts ago I included an exterior shot of Durham Cathedral . This is a shot of the Nave of the cathedral . You can see the massive pillars that hold up the ceiling of this Norman Church. In this shot the carving on the pillars is of lozenge design some of the other pillars use a motif of chevrons . There are rather a lot of people on the shot but the young woman in front of the pillar shows its scale quite well
Durham Cathedral is one measure of the swift and profound transformation brought about by the Norman Conquest in England in the eleventh and twelfth centuries: not only a new art and architectural style—what is variously referred to as Anglo-Norman or English Romanesque—but an unprecedented and almost military-industrial mode of construction.
The Cathedral was built between the late 11th and early 12th century to house the bodies of St. Cuthbert (634-687 AD) (the evangeliser of Northumbria) and the Venerable Bede (672/3-735 AD). It attests to the importance of the early Benedictine monastic community and is the largest and finest example of Norman architecture in England. The innovative audacity of its vaulting foreshadowed Gothic architecture. The Cathedral lies within the precinct of Durham Castle, first constructed in the late eleventh century under the orders of William the Conqueror.

This is the eleventh photo of my rain series from Prague. I took this photo series on the Charles bridge during a heavy rain.
This particular photo is both new and old. I have presented a photo of the lady with the broken umbrella before but this time it is masked in to another scene that is identical to the first scene but with no other people in it but her. It bugged me for a long time that I had to crop the photo of her really hard in order to eliminate other people from the picture until I found a photo of the same scene with no people in it and understood that I could mask her in to that scene instead :)
If you like this there is ten more from the same episode in my album "Prague rain series" Se below.
P.S. I have not used selective color. It is a color photo.
Thank you for viewing!
L'église Sainte-Radegonde est une église paroissiale catholique située dans le village de Talmont-sur-Gironde.
Édifiée sur une falaise surplombant l'estuaire de la Gironde, cette église est parfois considérée comme l'archétype du style roman saintongeais.
L'église Sainte-Radegonde est édifiée à partir du xie siècle à l'initiative des bénédictins de l'abbaye de Saint-Jean-d'Angély, lesquels auraient fait du sanctuaire une étape sur l'un des chemins de Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle. Ainsi, après avoir suivi la Via Turonensis jusqu'à Saintes, certains jacquets auraient-ils choisi de se rendre à Talmont d'où ils auraient embarqué pour la basilique de Soulac, sur l'autre rive de l'estuaire de la Gironde, poursuivant leur périple par la voie de Soulac.
Bien qu'une plaque commémorant le pèlerinage ait été apposée à proximité de l'église par la « Société des amis de Saint-Jacques », l'importance - sinon la réalité - de celui-ci se heurte à l'absence de preuves tangibles antérieures au milieu du xxe siècle.

___________________________________________
The church Sainte-Radegonde is a Catholic parish church in the village of Talmont-sur-Gironde.
Built on a cliff overlooking the Gironde estuary, this church is sometimes seen as the archetype of the Saintonge Romanesque style.
The church Sainte-Radegonde is built from the eleventh century on the initiative of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Jean d'Angely, which would have made the sanctuary a step on one of the ways of Saint-Jacques Compostela. Thus, after following Via Turonensis to Saintes, some jacquets would they chose to go to Talmont from where they embarked for the Basilica of Soulac, on the other bank of the Gironde estuary, continuing their journey through Soulac.
Although a plaque commemorating the pilgrimage was affixed close to the church by the "Society of Friends of Saint-Jacques," the importance - if not the reality - of it runs up against the absence of hard evidence prior to mid-twentieth century.

Abacab is the eleventh studio album by English rock band Genesis, released on 18 September 1981 by Charisma Records. After their 1980 tour in support of their previous album, Duke (1980), the band took a break before they reconvened in 1981 to write and record a new album. Abacab is the first Genesis album recorded at The Farm, a recording studio bought by the group in Chiddingfold, Surrey. It marked the band's development from their progressive roots into more accessible and pop-oriented songs, and their conscious decision to write songs unlike their previous albums.
The title is taken from the structure of an early version of the song. Guitarist Mike Rutherford explained in an interview in 2006: [There are] three bits of music in "Abacab" and we refer to them as 'bit A', [correcting self] 'Section A', 'Section B', and 'Section C'. And at different times they were in a different order. We'd start with section A and then have section C and then have section [pauses] and at one point in time, it spelt "ABACAB". And you've got the final version where it's not that at all, it's like "ACACACUCUBUBUGA".
Eleventh and last image in this Horicon Marsh Magic series...
The golden light of the rising sun was finally shining through
thick fog of the marsh as this Sandhill Crane took flight.
I was thrilled to capture this massive bird flying above the wetland grasses.
Thanks so much for joining me on this long Marsh series. Your views and comments have been so encouraging.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Eleventh and last image in this long Autumn Orange series...
Sitting proudly on an old branch and in front of a canopy of orange leaves, this Bald eagle allowed me to fire off a few shots before he lifted off and took to the skies.
It wasn't until I looked at this image on my computer that I realized just how striking the leaves were behind the bird. These big eagles are awesome on their own, but add the orange leaves of autumn and it goes to another level.
Thanks for joining me on this series. Your views and comments were much appreciated!
Tournus is a pretty town just north of Macon sitting on the banks of the River Saone . The town has a lot of historic though its jewel is the eleventh century church of St. Philibert, the main surviving building of a former Benedictine abbey, the Abbey of St. Philibert,
The earliest parts of the church are eleventh century. It is in the style of the early First Romanesque style of Burgundy. The barrelled ceiling is held up by massive columns . A note on the colour of the building there is not a colour cast the stone of this church has an unusual tones soft pink.

SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH IN CAMPRODON (2020)
EL ONCE DE SEPTIEMBRE EN CAMPRODON (2020)
CATALÀ
La Diada Nacional de Catalunya o Diada de l'11 de Setembre és la festa nacional de Catalunya i es commemora anualment recordant la darrera defensa de Barcelona l'11 de setembre de 1714 per part dels últims vigatanistes que defenien al monarca Habsburg de la casa d'Austria que respectava un model descentralitzat i prometia defendre les institucions local davant les forces que suportaven la monarquia borbònica i un model d'estat centralitzat.
ENGLISH
The National Day of Catalonia (Catalan: Diada Nacional de Catalunya is a day-long festival in Catalonia and one of its official national symbols, celebrated annually on 11 September. It commemorates the fall of Barcelona during the War of the Spanish Succession in 1714 and the subsequent loss of Catalan institutions and laws.
ESPAÑOL
El Día Once de Septiembre (en catalán Diada de l'Onze de Setembre, Diada Nacional de Catalunya, o simplemente Diada), también llamado Día de Cataluña, Día Nacional de Cataluña, Fiesta Nacional de Cataluña, o simplemente Diada, es la fiesta oficial de Cataluña, comunidad autónoma española.
Se conmemora la caída de Barcelona en manos de las tropas borbónicas al mando del duque de Berwick durante la guerra de sucesión española el 11 de septiembre de 1714, tras catorce meses de sitio. Esta victoria conllevó la abolición de las instituciones catalanas tras la promulgación de los Decretos de Nueva Planta, en 1716.
El Parlamento de Cataluña declaró el día Fiesta Nacional catalana en su primera ley tras su restablecimiento, en 1980. El artículo 8.1 del Estatuto de Autonomía de 2006 declara: «Cataluña, definida como nacionalidad en el artículo primero, tiene como símbolos nacionales la bandera, la fiesta y el himno». El artículo 8.3 establece: «La fiesta de Cataluña es el Día Once de Septiembre»

Armistice Day 2017.
The Royal British Legion this year wants the poppy seen as a symbol of peace as well as remembrance.
Found myself standing next to a soybean field the other evening in utter awe as this jaw-dropping sunset unfolded before my eyes. Not just the incredible color saturation, but the random chain of events that brought me here at this precise moment in time. A couple of minutes either way, and even a hundred yards in either direction and I would have missed the moment entirely. It often seems like I have to be in a very specific place and time to see the things I see, or at least in the way that I see them. It's another strong argument for staying observant and mobile as much as possible. It's not like I get text alerts on my phone about impending life moments. It's always up to me to go find them.
Back in the moment, I was amazed at the speed with which the color literally erupted. Probably less than a minute, and certainly in the realm of "right before my very eyes". And suddenly there it is and you really can't quite believe what you are seeing. There's often a spiritual quality to sunrise-sunset. To me it's enhanced by the sheer silence of the spectacle. Not to mention the desolation of the bean field and being the only one here to witness the scene.
The moment passed as suddenly as it began. The sun quickly dipped below the horizon and the rich color just evaporated. Only a fading orange glow was left to make the spot.
Witnessing 25 years of sunrises along the former Ohio and Mississippi in southern Indiana is soon coming to an end. Why CSX is replacing signals on a segment of track that sees one train a day is questionable but it's still amazing they lasted this long.
Ford introduced the eleventh generation, "new 2 seater" Thunderbird in model year 2002. It remained in production for 4 years, and ended with the 2005 model. Over the 4 years of production a total of 68,098 units were produced with nearly half that number produced the first year alone. It had declined steadily after that with under 10,000 produced in it's final year.
FORD Thunderbird (2002 - 2005)
With its retro-design look and modern features, the 2002 Thunderbird should have been a blast from the past and revive the brand name, but it was a flop.
It was based on the same platform as the Jaguar XF or the Lincoln LS. When it unveiled it, the whole market was enthusiastic, but that enthusiasm didn't last long, and the T-Bird sunk with slow sales. Its production ended in 2005.
The design was inspired by the first-generation of the T-Bird. The retro-design style could have been seen on the front fascia, with its big and round headlights and the flat, chromed grille with square-grid mesh. With a sloped silhouette, which started taller on the front fenders and descended toward the rear, the convertible inspired the old-style design theme, but in a modern interpretation. The hardtop featured an oval window on the C-pillar, resembling older Thunderbirds.
Ford chose to fit one engine under the Thunderbird's hood: a 3.9-liter V8 taken from Jaguar. It was paired to a standard 5-speed automatic transmission. Later on, in 2003, T-Bird received an updated version, which provided 284 hp.
InterActiveCorp's headquarters located at 555 West 18th Street on the northeast corner of Eleventh Avenue in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, is a Frank Gehry-designed building that was completed in 2007. The building was Gehry's first in New York and featured the world's largest high definition screen at the time in its lobby.

Promenade Anne d'Allègre :
Laval est une cité millénaire qui, dès le XIème siècle, a su tirer partie de sa situation géographique sur la Mayenne.
Sur la rive droite s’ordonne un bourg dynamique et prospère autour de son donjon qui porte encore ses hourds d’origine. Protégée au XIIIème par d’épaisses murailles percées de seulement 5 portes dont il ne reste que "la porte Beucheresse", la ville devient une place forte dont vous pourrez apprécier la puissance le long de la promenade Anne d’Allègre
Laval is an ancient city which, from the eleventh century, has taken part of its geographical location on the Mayenne.
On the right bank ordered a village dynamic and prosperous around his dungeon that still bears its original hourds. XIII protected by thick walls pierced by only 5 doors that there are only "the door Beucheresse", the city became a stronghold you can enjoy the power along the walking blithely Anne d'Allègre

Colchester Castle is a Norman castle in Colchester, Essex, England, dating from the second half of the eleventh century. The keep of the castle is mostly intact and is the largest example of its kind anywhere in Europe, due to its being built on the foundations of the Roman Temple of Claudius, Colchester. The castle endured a three-month siege in 1216, but had fallen into disrepair by the seventeenth century when the curtain walls and some of the keep's upper parts were demolished; its original height is debated. The remaining structure was used as a prison and was partially restored as a large garden pavilion, but was purchased by Colchester Borough Council in 1922. The castle has since 1860 housed Colchester Museum, which has an important collection of Roman exhibits. It is a scheduled monument and a Grade I listed building.
The attribution of the castle as a royal foundation is based on a charter of Henry I dated 1101, granting the town and castle of Colchester to Eudo Dapifer "as my father had them and my brother and myself", Henry's father and brother being William I, "William the Conqueror", and William II, "William Rufus". The somewhat unreliable Colchester Chronicle, written in the late 13th century, credits Eudo with the construction of the castle and gives a commencement date of 1076. The design of the castle has been associated with Gundulf of Rochester purely on the basis of the similarities between Colchester and the White Tower at the Tower of London; however, both keeps also resemble the much earlier example at Château d'Ivry-la-Bataille in Upper Normandy.
Between 1920 and 1922, the Castle and the associated parkland were bought by the Borough of Colchester using a large donation from Weetman Pearson, 1st Viscount Cowdray, a wealthy industrialist who had been the town's Member of Parliament. The Park is split into the Upper and Lower Castle Parks. A museum of artefacts owned by the borough had been on display at the castle since 1860, and the roofing over of the keep in the mid-1930s allowed for a considerable expansion. Between January 2013 and May 2014 the castle museum underwent extensive refurbishment costing £4.2 million. The programme of work improved and updated the displays with the latest research into the castle's history, and supported the repair of the roof.
Form, light, shade and aesthetic purity coalesce in the historic tenth century royal palace in Seville. Formerly the site of the Islamic era citadel of the city, the citadel was developed into a larger palace complex by the Abbadid dynasty and Almohads through the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A difficult image to capture.
