Castellón artist Juan Ripollés, painter and sculptor.

The figure, entitled "The Sun" is made of Murano glass.

Through the glass particles adhered by hand to its surface in colors such as yellow or red, the Ripollés bas-relief will project a different luminosity throughout the day, depending on the projection of natural light, to simulate the variable activity of the sun.

The creation of Ripollés to distinguish the building is made up of a face, weighing 3,000 kilos only at its base, as well as seven arms, equivalent to lightning, which run throughout the exterior of the apartment building.

The design of the sculpture, 38 meters wide and 15 meters high, the property has been painted in dark blue to represent the sea, as well as the exterior distribution of the windows.

La figura, titulada "El Sol" está elaborada en cristal de Murano.

A través de las partículas de cristal adheridas de forma artesanal a su superficie en colores como el amarillo o el rojo, el bajo relieve de Ripollés proyectará una luminosidad diferente a lo largo del día, en función de la proyección de la luz natural, para simular la actividad variable del sol.

La creación de Ripollés para singularizar el edificio se compone de una cara, de 3.000 kilos de peso sólo en su base, así como de siete brazos, equivalentes a los rayos, que recorren todo el exterior de la finca de pisos.

El diseño de la escultura, de 38 metros de ancho y una altura de 15 metros, el inmueble ha sido pintado en azul oscuro para representar el mar, así como la distribución exterior de las ventanas.

I was going to entitle this "Sunrise At Low Tide," but according to the official charts, the sun rose at 5:45 a.m., which was more than an hour earlier, so this doesn't even qualify as golden hour. It was a gray, overcast day, and a sliver of sunlight managed to break through the clouds in the east. As for the tides, low tide at Little Neck Bay was 7:18 a.m. that day so it went a little lower than this before reversing. Normally, I wouldn't even be out and about this early, but I was headed for the COVID-19 "special senior hours" at the local Stop 'N Shop; freshly stocked shelves and fewer, more compliant customers.

I saw one of my older photos when I was a few years into my digital photography hobby and while I was still a medical student, where I photographed my kitlens and one of my first Littmann Classic II SE stethoscope, and it was entitled "When Passions Collide" (I did say COINCIDE in the photo's description), and I felt that I need to do an updated shot, this time with my Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM lens and my Littmann Cardiology III stethoscope that I purchased when I became a full fledged physician back in 2016.

Plus, this gives me yet another reason to practice more off shoe flash photography with 2 external flashes as I am more adept with using only 1 external flash.

A sculpture entitled “Perhaps (An Investigation Outside the Laws of Thought)” which was temporary positioned in 2016 alongside Brayford Pool in Lincoln, Lincolnshire.

It was created by New Delhi-based Raqs Media Collective and it was inspired by George Boole, the Lincoln-born mathematician whose work laid the theoretical foundations for the digital age. It was commissioned by Gymnasium, the contemporary art commissioning programme that presents new works in public locations.

The artwork, composed of two interlocking arcs coated in a sheer reflective surface which mirrors both the structure itself and the surrounding water and foliage. Two arcs rise and fall by the water of the Brayford Pool, facing the University of Lincoln. Coated by a sheer reflective surface, the two arcs mirror each other, the water and their environs, creating an illusion of a fold in space, a thickening of air.

Lincoln was George Boole’s birthplace. He must have walked by Brayford Pool, asking questions that needed answers in yes, no, and perhaps, perhaps. This work remembers those moments outside the boundaries of yes and no, just outside the limits placed by the laws of thought.

Today I begin my series entitled Waterworld.

Shooting underwater has become such a passion of mine that I can’t wait for each shoot. Ironically I am such a baby when it comes to getting into cold lakes but once I’m in, I’m at home and ready to submerge myself into Waterworld.

This photo entitled Waterworld: “Enter” gives us our starting point. This unnamed character leaves her world of sun, earth and air to enter the unknown depths of the sea. In the weeks to come I look forward to sharing with you the unfolding story…..

Masaccio (Tommaso di Ser Giovanni di Mòne di Andreuccio Cassài -Castel San Giovanni in Altura, December 21, 1401 - Rome, June 1428) - the payment of the tribute (1423 circa) - Brancacci Chapel - Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence

Nel 1268 un gruppo di frati giunti da Pisa fonda a Firenze la chiesa della beata Vergine del Carmelo. I lavori di costruzione vengono portati avanti con il contributo del Comune e delle più facoltose famiglie fiorentine e si protraggono anche oltre la data della consacrazione (1422), terminando soltanto nel 1475.

Nel 1423 il ricco mercante Felice Brancacci , di ritorno dall’Egitto, commissiona l’esecuzione degli affreschi. Alle Storie di San Pietro, santo a cui era in origine intitolata la cappella, lavorano insieme Masolino e Masaccio; a causa della partenza del primo per

l’Ungheria e del secondo per Roma, nel 1427 gli affreschi rimangono però incompiuti.

In seguito all’esilio del Brancacci (1436), caduto in disgrazia per le sue simpatie antimedicee, i frati del convento fanno cancellare i ritratti di tutti i personaggi legati alla sua famiglia e nel 1460 intitolano la cappella alla Madonna del Popolo, inserendovi la venerata tavola duecentesca.

Soltanto negli anni 1481-1483 Filippino Lippi effettuerà il ripristino e il completamento delle scene mancanti. I dipinti rischiano più volte di andare perduti: nel 1680 la Granduchessa Vittoria della Rovere si oppone al proposito del marchese Ferroni di trasformare la cappella in stile barocco, ma alla metà del Settecento vengono effettuati interventi di ammodernamento che distruggono le pitture della volta e delle lunette. Scampata all’incendio che nel 1771 devasta l’interno della chiesa, la cappella è acquistata nel 1780 dai Riccardi, che rinnovano altare e pavimento. Gli affreschi, trascurati per tutto l’Ottocento, vengono sottoposti a spolveratura nel 1904; l’intervento di restauro effettuato negli anni Ottanta del Novecento ha finalmente permesso di recuperare la loro limpida e brillante cromia.

In 1268 a group of friars from Pisa founded the church of the Blessed Virgin of Carmel in Florence. The construction works were carried out with the contribution of the Municipality and of the wealthiest Florentine families and went on even beyond the date of the consecration (1422), ending only in 1475.

In 1423 the rich merchant Felice Brancacci, returning from Egypt, commissioned the execution of the frescoes. Masolino and Masaccio worked together on the Stories of Saint Peter, the saint to whom the chapel was originally dedicated.

because of the departure of the first for Hungary and of the second for Rome, in 1427 the frescoes remained unfinished.

Following the exile of Brancacci (1436), who had fallen into disgrace because of his anti-Medicean sympathies, the friars of the convent had the portraits of all the personages linked to his family erased and in 1460 they entitled the chapel to the Madonna del Popolo, inserting in it the venerated 13th-century panel.

It was only in the years 1481-1483 that Filippino Lippi carried out the restoration and completion of the missing scenes. The paintings were in danger of being lost several times: in 1680 the Grand Duchess Vittoria della Rovere opposed the intention of the Marquis Ferroni to transform the chapel in Baroque style, but in the middle of the eighteenth century are made modernization interventions that destroy the paintings of the vault and of the lunettes. Escaped the fire that devastated the interior of the church in 1771. of the church, the chapel was purchased in 1780 by the Riccardi, who renovated the altar and the floor. The frescoes, neglected throughout the nineteenth century, were subjected to dusting in 1904. 1904; the restoration work carried out in the 1980s restoration carried out in the eighties of the twentieth century has finally allowed to recover their their clear and bright colors.

Strictly speaking this should really be entitled "Old Lighthouses, Dungeness". The view is of the circular dwellings around the base of partially demolished Wyatt's Tower built in 1792. Wyatt's tower was demolished in 1904 to the level of the keeper's accommodation (if you look closely, the panicle of the conical roof capping off the tower can just be seen) and a new tower (the black tower behind) constructed around the same time. This was the fourth tower built on the Dungeness headland, the fifth and latest is out of shot.

The history is lengthy and worth reading; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeness_Lighthouse

I find the area absolutely fascinating and first visited back in the early nineties through contractual work at the nuclear power stations, now largely decommissioned. Right next to the lighthouse is the railway station and turn around loop of the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. Just down the road is an excellent RSPB wildlife reserve and also the iconic Sound Mirrors.

I cannot recommend this area more highly for exploring, it is absolutely fascinating.

Mural entitled "A Persistent Thread" by Jonny Alexander for "Murals in the Market" seen in Detroit, Michigan.

The artist explains the work as follows: This image is a personal interpretation of Detroit, where its been and where it's going. A narrative image you can read from left to right lends reference to Detroit's manufacturing past, it's present growth and it's future yet to be known. There is a banner that weaves its way through the whole image from past to future. It's meant to represent the cultural thread that has run through Detroit, with +80% of Detroit's population being black, I see this legacy as being the lifeblood that gives the city it's culture, vitality and creative energy. The banner serves as a reminder to the changing city to recognize and celebrate its cultural legacy.

The artist states "This mural reflects my feelings about the fleeting nature of time and the sense of loss that comes with it. I often feel overwhelmed by how short the days are, struggling to balance quality time with family while still pursuing my dreams. It’s as though a ticking clock constantly looms over me, reminding me how quickly life passes. But the looming clock isn’t necessarily negative, as it reminds to call my family and friends more and motivates me to create art that inspires and uplifts communities while my body is still able."
