Muchísimas gracias a Dani por sus consejos e ideas, y a Fran por prestarme su objetivo.

Every autumn the Michaelmas Fair crams itself into the Market Place, Cow Market and surrounding lanes. The rides whizz alarmingly close to the buildings, and the noise, chaos and smells make it feel like a medieval experience.
Banbury’s Michaelmas Fair originated as what was called a Hiring fair and it dates back some 600 to 700 years. Farm workers, labourers, domestic servants and some craftsmen would work for their employer for a year at a time, from October to October. At the end of their employment they would attend the Hiring Fair dressed in their Sunday best clothes. The prospective workers would gather in the street or market place, often sporting some sort of badge or tool to denote their speciality; shepherds held a crook or a tuft of wool, cowmen brought wisps of straw, dairymaids carried a milking stool or pail and housemaids held brooms or mops, hence the derivation of the term “Mop Fair”.
Banbury was known for its fairs and by 1836 there were 13, several of which were connected with the buying and selling of livestock. Four years earlier 4,600 sheep, 1,220 cows, 300 pigs and 200 horses were brought to a Michaelmas Fair otherwise known as the great hiring fair.
It's long been a rowdy fun event. In 1855 some 20,000 visitors (1851 population of Banbury 8,793) descended on the Thursday. Inevitably this produced a dense mass of people who were drawn especially to the front of the town hall where they discovered Sangers Royal Circus and not far away swinging boats, a shooting gallery, peep shows and more than 100 nut stalls. It’s small wonder that the local paper of the day claimed “a tolerable picture of our Michaelmas Fair was the usual din of music, hooting, bawling, singing, laughing and firing”.
Nothing seems to have changed!
Expérience photo: j'ai essayé de visser mon Tamron 70-300 mm sur mes bagues macro pour voir ce qui ça donne, toujours sans autofocus. Le résultat n'est pas mal! (Toujours dans le Queyras)
Photo experiment: I have tried to put my objective Tamron 70-300 mm on my macro tube just to see what happens, always without autofocus. The final result is not so bad! (Always in Hautes Alpes, South of France)
Not knowing whether to be scared or to be content
Make your judgment
Halo or devil
We describe our persona of creepy
In our religious manifestations
In our children books
In our stories
In our movies
Our hell on earth
Permitting the dead to guide our fear and vision

Fremont Street dates back to 1905, when Las Vegas itself was founded and was the first paved street in the city in 1925. It provides the address for many of the original and most famous casinos such as Binion's Horseshoe, Fremont Hotel and Casino, Golden Gate Hotel & Casino and the Golden Nugget. It was the picture of Las Vegas that was included in virtually every television show and movie that wanted to display the lights of Las Vegas. The abundance of neon signs, like cowboy Vegas Vic, earned the street the nickname of Glitter Gulch.
The Fremont Street Experience was conceived in the 1990's. The attraction is a barrel vault canopy, 90 ft (27m) high at the peak and four blocks, or approximately 1,500 ft (460m), in length along the historic street that started it all. The world-famous, one-of-a-kind entertainment venue is home to Viva Vision, the largest big screen on the planet. There are more than 12 million lights in the Viva Vision canopy and 550,000 watts of concert quality sound are pumped to speakers throughout the venue to produce an incredible array of eye-popping imagery and heart pounding music. Viva Vision shows appear nightly on the hour beginning at dusk and are free and open to the public. Concerts, special events, and roaming street performers entertain nearly 17 million visitors who come to experience the Vegas attraction each year.

In the smallest details you can find the most magnificent beauty. In the most ordinary moments, you can know the extraordinary experience of being.
Consider the warm golden glow of sunlight as it falls upon autumn leaves. Let the thought of such unassuming beauty bring peace into your heart. Feel the cool, crisp mountain air as dusk falls quietly upon the land. And let the experience energize your spirit.
Your life is more than making judgments and accumulating trophies. Let yourself remember how truly magnificent it is to simply be alive and aware. You have to make yourself aware of the beauty that surrounds you, which you have been missing for all your life. It is time to take a time out and sit beside the mightiest mountains and then only you came to know how small you really are, and how big you can really become.

Amsterdam is the capital city and most populous municipality of the Netherlands. Its status as the capital is mandated by the Constitution of the Netherlands, although it is not the seat of the government, which is The Hague. Amsterdam has a population of 851,373 within the city proper, 1,351,587 in the urban area and 2,410,960 in the metropolitan area. The city is located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country but is not its capital, which is Haarlem. The metropolitan area comprises much of the northern part of the Randstad, one of the larger conurbations in Europe, with a population of approximately 8 million.
Amsterdam's name derives from Amstelredamme, indicative of the city's origin around a dam in the river Amstel. Originating as a small fishing village in the late 12th century, Amsterdam became one of the most important ports in the world during the Dutch Golden Age (17th century), as a result of its innovative developments in trade. During that time, the city was the leading centre for finance and diamonds. In the 19th and 20th centuries the city expanded, and many new neighbourhoods and suburbs were planned and built. The 17th-century canals of Amsterdam and the 19–20th century Defence Line of Amsterdam are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Since the annexation of the municipality of Sloten in 1921 by the municipality of Amsterdam, the oldest historic part of the city lies in Sloten (9th century).
As the commercial capital of the Netherlands and one of the top financial centres in Europe, Amsterdam is considered an alpha world city by the Globalization and World Cities (GaWC) study group. The city is also the cultural capital of the Netherlands. Many large Dutch institutions have their headquarters there, including Philips, AkzoNobel, TomTom and ING. Also, many of the world's largest companies are based in Amsterdam or established their European headquarters in the city, such as leading technology companies Uber, Netflix and Tesla. In 2012, Amsterdam was ranked the second best city to live in by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and 12th globally on quality of living for environment and infrastructure by Mercer. The city was ranked 3rd in innovation by Australian innovation agency 2thinknow in their Innovation Cities Index 2009. The Port of Amsterdam to this day remains the second in the country, and the fifth largest seaport in Europe. Famous Amsterdam residents include the diarist Anne Frank, artists Rembrandt van Rijn and Vincent van Gogh, and philosopher Baruch Spinoza.
The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, the oldest stock exchange in the world, is located in the city centre. Amsterdam's main attractions include its historic canals, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, Hermitage Amsterdam, the Anne Frank House, the Scheepvaartmuseum, the Amsterdam Museum, the Heineken Experience, the Royal Palace of Amsterdam, Natura Artis Magistra, Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam, NEMO, the red-light district and many cannabis coffee shops. They draw more than 5 million international visitors annually. The city is also well known for its nightlife and festival activity; several of its nightclubs (Melkweg, Paradiso) are among the world's most famous. It is also one of the world's most multicultural cities, with at least 177 nationalities represented.
