Le Lac des Mines d'Or, est un lac artificiel, situé en Haute-Savoie, sur la commune de Samoëns en France 1 390 m).
Les Mines d'Or au Col du Coux : C’est au XIXe siècle que le col de Coux a connu sa mini ruée. Vers 1850, des Suisses creusent une mine à quelques encablures du col. L’histoire ne dit pas s’ils ont fait fortune. Par la suite, dans les années 1890, ce sont quatre Stéphanois qui tentent de poursuivre l’exploitation, toujours, à la recherche d'un filon. La fortune n'était toutefois pas au rendez-vous, les difficultés d’exploitation dues au manque d’eau et surtout la mort accidentelle d’un des compagnons provoqua l’abandon définitif de la mine quelques années plus tard.
The Lac des Mines d'Or, is an artificial lake, located in Haute-Savoie, in the commune of Samoëns in France 1 390 m).
The Gold Mines at the Col du Coux: It was in the 19th century that the Col de Coux experienced its mini rush. Around 1850, some Swiss dug a mine a few hundred yards from the pass. History does not say whether they made a fortune. Subsequently, in the 1890s, four people from St. Etienne tried to continue mining, still looking for a vein. However, the fortune was not there, the difficulties of exploitation due to the lack of water and especially the accidental death of one of the companions caused the definitive abandonment of the mine a few years later.
Selva de Irati, Navarra, España.
El bosque o la selva de Irati (Iratiko oihana en euskera) es un bosque repartido entre el norte de Navarra (España) y los Pirineos Atlánticos (Sola y Baja Navarra) en el suroeste de Francia.
Por su parte española está situada en el valle del río Irati, entre los montes de Orzanzurieta y Roncesvalles al oeste, y el monte Orhi al este. El límite sur lo pone la imponente mole de la Sierra de Abodi. Los principales accesos son por el oeste por Orbaiceta (Valle de Aézcoa) y por el este por Ochagavía (Valle de Salazar).
Se trata de la mayor masa forestal de Navarra y uno de los mayores y mejor conservados bosques de hayas (Fagus sylvatica) y abetos (Abies alba) de toda Europa. A pesar de ser un bosque explotado forestalmente desde los siglos XVI-XVII, el respeto y el buen hacer de los habitantes de estos valles ha hecho que se conserve en total plenitud. Existen dentro de la zona diversos espacios protegidos: todo el Irati es una ZEPA (Zona de Especial Protección de Aves), así como zonas protegidas como Reserva Natural o Reserva Integral del total de 17.000 ha del bosque.
The Irati forest or jungle (Iratiko oihana in Basque) is a forest distributed between the north of Navarra (Spain) and the Atlantic Pyrenees (Sola and Lower Navarra) in southwestern France.
For its Spanish part, it is located in the valley of the Irati river, between the Orzanzurieta and Roncesvalles mountains to the west, and the Orhi mountain to the east. The southern limit is set by the imposing mass of the Sierra de Abodi. The main accesses are to the west through Orbaiceta (Valle de Aézcoa) and to the east through Ochagavía (Valle de Salazar).
It is the largest forest mass in Navarra and one of the largest and best preserved beech (Fagus sylvatica) and fir (Abies alba) forests in all of Europe. Despite being a forest exploited by forestry since the 16th-17th centuries, the respect and good work of the inhabitants of these valleys has made it fully preserved. There are several protected areas within the area: the entire Irati is a ZEPA (Special Bird Protection Area), as well as protected areas such as Natural Reserve or Integral Reserve of the total 17,000 ha of forest.
Sirocco is a warm wind from the southeast. In the maps, the wind rose was positioned within the Mediterranean and specifically between the Ionian Sea and the island of Malta. Thus the wind that came from the North-East came from Greece and took the name of Grecale. the libeccio wind from Libya.The one that came from the South-East came from Syria and took the name of Scirocco. According to some Sicilian popular beliefs, this wind was considered a harbinger of misfortune and disease. These beliefs had their roots in the distant past, when North Africa was the permanent site of outbreaks of endemic infectious diseases whose germs were transported to southern Italy by mosquitoes and midges, bad flyers but very skilled in exploiting the Sirocco air currents .

L’exploitation d’une carrière conduit à la création d’habitats devenus rares en Belgique tels que des falaises et arènes rocheuses ou sablonneuses, des éboulis, des mares temporaires, des pelouses calcaires… Ces milieux générés par l’activité extractive permettent l’installation et le développement de nombreuses populations d’espèces pionnières à haute valeur biologique.
L’objectif général du projet LIFE in Quarries est de développer et de pérenniser ce potentiel d’accueil de la biodiversité dans différents sites d’extraction en activité en Wallonie. L’originalité du projet repose sur la mise en œuvre des mesures de gestion de la biodiversité durant la phase d’exploitation de la carrière et non pas uniquement dans le cadre de la réhabilitation en fin d’activité.

Celle ci a une saveur tout à fait particulière puisque c'est enfin mon tout premier Martin 2020 , après m'être cassé les dents à plusieurs reprises sur mes spots habituels ces derniers temps , j'ai donc décidé de changer de tactique en exploitant d'autres endroits , armé d'une paire de jumelles j'ai cherché les indices m'indiquant ses lieux de pêche , et je suis tombé finalement sur une grosse branche de saule qui surplombe la rivière et c'est depuis cette branche que j'ai pu observer mon gaillard en action de pêche , ni une ni deux j'ai mis en place mon fameux mode opératoire habituel en fichant sur la berge un perchoir non loin de la branche et finalement ce matin là il est venu à deux reprises prendre possession de son tout nouveau plongeoir .
Image prise depuis la tente affût et dans un milieu naturel .
PS : Un grand merci à toutes celles et ceux qui choisissent de regarder , de commenter et d'aimer mes photos .

This one has a very special flavor since it's finally my very first Martin 2020, after having broken my teeth several times on my usual spots lately, so I decided to change tactics by exploiting 'other places, armed with a pair of binoculars I looked for clues indicating its fishing grounds, and I finally came across a large willow branch overlooking the river and it is from this branch that I I was able to observe my fellow fishing, neither one nor two I set up my famous usual operating mode by tying a perch on the bank not far from the branch and finally that morning he came twice to take possession of its brand new diving board.

"The political decision-makers who (will) meet at COP26 in Glasgow are urgently summoned to provide effective responses to the present ecological crisis and in this way to offer concrete hope to future generations...
Moments of difficulty like these also present opportunities, opportunities that we must not waste. We can confront these crises by retreating into isolationism, protectionism and exploitation. Or we can see in them a real chance for change, a genuine moment of conversion, and not simply in a spiritual sense."
(Pope Francis)
Les explotacions d'espígol no són llocs per passejar-s'hi, en canvi a l'estiu és frequent veure-hi estranys personatges fent-ho.
"Las explotaciones de lavanda no son lugares para pasear, en cambio en verano es frecuente ver extraños personajes haciéndolo".
"Les exploitations de lavande ne sont pas des endroits pour se promener, alors qu'en été, il est courant de voir des personnages étranges le faire".

Situé au cœur du parc naturel Scarpe-Escaut, le site de Chabaud-Latour est classé au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO.
Ces 450 hectares ont été façonnés par l’industrie d’extraction. 3 terrils (terril Ledoux, Ledoux-Moulineaux, Ledoux-Lavoir) ont profondément modifiés cette zone marécageuse.
Les affaissements miniers, l’exploitation des schistes ont remanié le paysage en donnant naissance à 2 vastes plan d’eau : l’étang de Chabaud-Latour qui fait face à la ville de Condé-sur-l’escaut côté ouest et l’étang de la Digue Noire, côté nord-est.
Quant aux étangs Sarels, traversés par la drève Felix Szpruta où nous sommes sur la photo, ils sont apparus ultérieurement lors de l’assainissement du site dans les années 1980...

Mutations agricoles :
"Les agriculteurs de la commune de Salignac ont droit à trois labels appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC), dont le banon et à huit labels indication géographique protégée (IGP) (miel de Provence, agneau de Sisteron, alpes-de-haute-provence (IGP) blanc, rouge et rosé et VDP de Méditerranée blanc, rouge et rosé). Cependant, la vigne, composante de la triade méditerranéenne, n’est guère présente dans la commune. Au XIXè siècle, elle était cultivée pour l’autoconsommation. Actuellement, il ne reste que quelques hectares exploités.
L’olivier n’était pas cultivé à Salignac au début du XIXè siècle. Le terroir de la commune se situe en effet à la limite altitudinale de l’arbre, qui ne peut que difficilement être exploité au-delà des 650 mètres. Actuellement, l’oliveraie communale compte plus de 1000 pieds. L’huile produite à partir des olives récoltées dans la commune peut bénéficier des AOC huile d’olive de Provence et huile d’olive de Haute-Provence."

DON JUAN DE NARBONA 1732
It was declared a National Historic monument.
It was a property of Juan Narbona who exploited it like limekiln.
In the year 1738 there was constructed an oratory and a chapel that were the only ones between Montevideo and Villa Soriano
The Estancia de Narbona, (Narbona’s Farm), built by Don Juan de Narbona in 1732, is an archeological relic. Its Chapel and Oratory were the only ones that existed at those times between Montevideo and Villa Soriano. They were related to the Camacho family, and they are near the Camacho Bridge, surrounded by a beautiful park.

Noisy and gregarious, these cheerful exploiters of man's rubbish and wastefulness have managed to colonise most of the world. The ultimate avian opportunist perhaps. Monitoring suggests a severe decline in the UK house sparrow population, recently estimated as dropping by 71 per cent between 1977 and 2008 with substantial declines in both rural and urban populations. While the decline in England continues, Breeding Bird Survey data indicate recent population increases in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Bernard's Bridge is a well detailed bridge forming the entrance to part of an outstanding example of early 19th century urban planning with a classical design scheme by prominent architect James Milne. The bridge was designed to provide easy access to the Raeburn Estate which Milne was developing, and provided a processional entrance to the estate at Dean Terrace. The provision of a bridge made access to and from the area easier as Telford's high level crossing upstream (see separate listing) had not yet been completed and the Stock Bridge, 200metres downstream, was not widened until circa 1830. The large Jacobean stairs may have been planned as part of the 1888 restoration and improvement work of the nearby St Bernard's Well (see separate listing) which was funded by the publisher William Nelson. The bridge is an integral part of Edinburgh's New Town, which is an outstanding example of classical urban planning that was influential throughout Britain and Europe.
The bridge was designed as a key part of the development of the land of Sir Henry Raeburn. The design exploits a prominent site on the river with a broad bowl of flat land to either side providing the ideal place for a crossing. It is likely that Milne was the architect for the bridge as he was working elsewhere on the Raeburn estate, most notably at Ann Street (see separate listings).
Henry Raeburn was born in Stockbridge and acquired the house and grounds of Deanhaugh through marriage, before adding adjacent land at St Bernard's. He occupied St Bernard's House until his death in 1823 when it was demolished to accommodate the growing residential development of the estate, making space for the eastern side of Carlton Street. The authorship of James Milne for the whole development is not certain, but the elevations for the principal streets bear the characteristic features of his designs elsewhere, such as Lynedoch Place (see separate listing) where the streetfronting gardens found on Ann Street are also used.
James Milne was an architect and mason working in Edinburgh between 1809 and 1834 (when he moved to Newcastle). His other works in Edinburgh also include Lynedoch Place and Saxe-Coburg Place (see separate listings). Milne was also the author of The Elements of Architecture only the 1st volume of which was published in Edinburgh in 1812.

Ce qui explose, quand explosent les censures imposées par les dirigeants, c'est un ordre moral fondé sur l'exploitation de tous. La famille, la virilité guerrière, la pudeur, toutes les valeurs traditionnelles visent à assigner chaque sexe à son rôle. Les hommes, en cadavres gratuits pour l'État, les femmes, en esclaves des hommes. Au final, tous asservis, nos sexualités confisquées, fliquées, normées. Il y a toujours une classe sociale qui a intérêt à ce que les choses restent comme elles sont, et qui ne dit pas la vérité sur ces motivations profondes.

Parys Mountain is located south of the town of Amlwch in north east Anglesey, Wales. It is the site of a large copper mine that was extensively exploited in the late 18th century
Les Mines d'Ocre de Bruoux, souvent appelées Mines de Bruoux, sont un ancien site minier situé sur la commune de Gargas, dans le département du Vaucluse, en France. Il est transformé en musée et site touristique naturel depuis 2009.
De par son ancienneté et ses dimensions, c'est un site unique au monde.
L’utilisation de l’ocre remonte à la période Paléolithique. C’est en 1785, à Roussillon en Vaucluse, que débute l'exploitation de ce minerai avec Jean-Etienne Astier, qui découvre le moyen de l'extraire. Ici à Gargas, c’est en 1848 que commence l’exploitation industrielle de l’ocre, qui sera utilisé principalement pour des peintures, colorations et revêtements.
L’épopée industrielle des mines de Bruoux durera plus d’un siècle. Durant cette période, des mineurs – appelés ocriers – creusaient des galeries à coups de pioche, manipulant des wagonnets tirés par des chevaux et extrayant les sables ocreux. Sans l'intervention de l'homme et l'exploitation industrielle, ce minerai serait resté caché sous une végétation de garrigue, typique de Provence.
Aujourd’hui, la Société des Ocres de France, basée à Apt, exploite la dernière carrière d’ocre à ciel ouvert d’Europe à Gargas.

Lagos de Covadonga, Asturias, España.
Los lagos de Covadonga son dos pequeños lagos, el Enol y el Ercina, de origen glaciar situados en la parte asturiana del parque nacional de los Picos de Europa, en el macizo occidental de dicha cadena montañosa. Existe un tercer lago, el Bricial, que solo tiene agua durante el deshielo, pero también pertenece al conjunto
Se sitúan en el concejo de Cangas de Onís y se accede a ellos a través de una carretera de 14,5 km que nace en el Real Sitio de Covadonga para llegar en primer lugar al lago Enol, incluyendo también una pequeña carretera que les llevaría hasta el Lago Ercina. Su frecuente uso desde 1983 como final de etapa en la Vuelta ciclista a España ha popularizado internacionalmente el paraje.
La afluencia masiva de turistas, sobre todo aficionados al ciclismo, ha obligado a limitar el desarrollo de pruebas ciclistas en el entorno de Los Lagos. No obstante, la zona cuenta con una infraestructura turística.
La excesiva afluencia de visitas, en especial en temporada alta, también ha supuesto que el acceso en coche a los Lagos esté restringido, pudiendo acceder únicamente utilizando el transporte público habilitado para ello. Los vehículos particulares no pueden circular por la carretera de acceso a Los Lagos durante 6 meses al año, en temporada alta. En temporada baja, no hay restricciones de acceso con vehículo particular.
En las proximidades del lago Ercina, en Buferrera, hasta 1979 se explotaron minas de hierro, manganeso y mercurio. Las personas que visitan dicho paraje tienen a su disposición un aparcamiento "aparcamiento de Buferrera", un centro de visitantes , un refugio y dos bares restaurante para su disfrute.
The lakes of Covadonga are two small lakes, Enol and Ercina, of glacial origin located in the Asturian part of the Picos de Europa national park, in the western massif of said mountain chain. There is a third lake, Bricial, which only has water during the thaw, but also belongs to the group
They are located in the municipality of Cangas de Onís and are accessed through a 14.5 km road that begins in the Royal Site of Covadonga to first reach Lake Enol, also including a small road that would take them to Lake Ercina. Its frequent use since 1983 as the end of the stage in the Cycling Tour of Spain has made the place internationally popular.
The massive influx of tourists, especially cycling fans, has forced the development of cycling events in the Los Lagos area to be limited. However, the area has a tourist infrastructure.
The excessive influx of visitors, especially in high season, has also meant that access by car to the Lakes is restricted, with access only possible using public transport enabled for this purpose. Private vehicles cannot circulate on the access road to Los Lagos for 6 months a year, during high season. In low season, there are no access restrictions with a private vehicle.
In the vicinity of Lake Ercina, in Buferrera, iron, manganese and mercury mines were exploited until 1979. People who visit this area have at their disposal a parking lot "Buferrera parking", a visitor center, a shelter and two restaurant bars for their enjoyment.

Se sitúan en el concejo de Cangas de Onís y se accede a ellos a través de una carretera de 14,5 km que nace en el Real Sitio de Covadonga para llegar en primer lugar al lago Enol, incluyendo también una pequeña carretera que les llevaría hasta el Lago Ercina. Su frecuente uso desde 1983 como final de etapa en la Vuelta ciclista a España ha popularizado internacionalmente el paraje.
La afluencia masiva de turistas, sobre todo aficionados al ciclismo, ha obligado a limitar el desarrollo de pruebas ciclistas en el entorno de Los Lagos. No obstante, la zona cuenta con una infraestructura turística.
La excesiva afluencia de visitas, en especial en temporada alta, también ha supuesto que el acceso en coche a los Lagos esté restringido, pudiendo acceder únicamente utilizando el transporte público habilitado para ello. Los vehículos particulares no pueden circular por la carretera de acceso a Los Lagos durante 6 meses al año, en temporada alta. En temporada baja, no hay restricciones de acceso con vehículo particular.
En las proximidades del lago Ercina, en Buferrera, hasta 1979 se explotaron minas de hierro, manganeso y mercurio. Las personas que visitan dicho paraje tienen a su disposición un aparcamiento "aparcamiento de Buferrera", un centro de visitantes , un refugio y dos bares restaurante para su disfrute.
The lakes of Covadonga are two small lakes, Enol and Ercina, of glacial origin located in the Asturian part of the Picos de Europa national park, in the western massif of said mountain chain. There is a third lake, Bricial, which only has water during the thaw, but also belongs to the group
They are located in the municipality of Cangas de Onís and are accessed through a 14.5 km road that begins in the Royal Site of Covadonga to first reach Lake Enol, also including a small road that would take them to Lake Ercina. Its frequent use since 1983 as the end of the stage in the Cycling Tour of Spain has made the place internationally popular.
The massive influx of tourists, especially cycling fans, has forced the development of cycling events in the Los Lagos area to be limited. However, the area has a tourist infrastructure.
The excessive influx of visitors, especially in high season, has also meant that access by car to the Lakes is restricted, with access only possible using public transport enabled for this purpose. Private vehicles cannot circulate on the access road to Los Lagos for 6 months a year, during high season. In low season, there are no access restrictions with a private vehicle.
In the vicinity of Lake Ercina, in Buferrera, iron, manganese and mercury mines were exploited until 1979. People who visit this area have at their disposal a parking lot "Buferrera parking", a visitor center, a shelter and two restaurant bars for their enjoyment.
Broto, Sobrarbe, Aragón, España.
Broto es un municipio de España en la provincia de Huesca, Comunidad Autónoma de Aragón. Tiene un área de 128,50 km² con una población de 531 habitantes (INE 2018) y una densidad de 4,28 hab/km².
La villa de Broto es la cabecera natural del Valle de Broto, y tradicionalmente ha sido el lugar de reunión del Conzello de Broto, una institución del valle que antiguamente hacía las veces de parlamento y diputación de todos los pueblos del mismo, donde se debían tomar todas las decisiones que implicasen a los vecinos de éste; concesiones de explotaciones forestales y agropecuarias, regulaciones económicas y arrendamientos, facerías (especialmente importantes en este lugar las que lo unían con el valle francés de Barèges), tribunal, etc. La institución todavía es funcional hoy en día, aunque en un grado mayor de como lo estaba antiguamente, hoy en día es gobernada sobre todo por los núcleos de Broto y la vecina Torla-Ordesa. Sus funciones están hoy muy menguadas respecto al grado de autonomía de que gozaba con los antiguos fueros, dado que contaba con auspicio de la casa real aragonesa, siendo por primera vez regulado su funcionamiento en el siglo XIII.
El Conzello efectuaba sus reuniones dentro del edificio de la Cárcel, que además incluye dependencias que se utilizaron hasta el siglo XVIII como prisión, y donde algunos de los reclusos realizaron grabados en las paredes, algunos de ellos con singular destreza, que se han convertido en uno más de los múltiples atractivos de la villa, siendo visitables en fechas concretas.
El núcleo de Broto se estructura en torno a la carretera nacional, llamada Avenida de Ordesa a su paso por la villa, con todos los comercios abiertos a ella. La iglesia se encuentra en la parte más elevada del pueblo, al mismo lado de la carretera que la cárcel, aunque esta segunda se encuentra más cerca del río. Por el lado sur de la carretera cabe buscar la Plaza de las Herrerías (también llamada "de la Santa Cruz" o "de los Porches") que constituye una de las visiones más hermosas de la población.
Los dos barrios que componen Broto están separados uno a cada orilla del Ara, con el barrio de la Santa Cruz en el norte, y en el sur el llamado Barrio de los Porches. Es una costumbre muy arraigada en los pueblos del Alto Aragón considerar y nombrar como barrios diferentes simples agrupaciones de casas que, como en este caso, están separadas únicamente por un curso de agua sobre el cual se levanta un puente. Antiguamente ambos barrios estaban unidos por un único puente medieval que fue desgraciadamente destruido en el transcurso de la Guerra Civil (cabe destacar la crudeza que alcanzó dicho conflicto en esta zona de Aragón, llegando a su punto cumbre con el fenómeno llamado la Bolsa de Bielsa). Hoy en día entre ambos barrios la carretera circula por un puente de hormigón.
Actualmente, puente románico sólo se conserva el que cruza por encima del río Sorrosal junto a la llamada Cascada del Sorrosal, un salto de agua que se precipita de una pared de roca hasta caer por debajo de la villa de Broto. El puente del Sorrosal está hoy en día cerrado al tránsito de personas que tienen que pasar por un puente paralelo habilitado a pocos metros y que, así mismo, conduce al vecino lugar de Oto.
Broto is a municipality of Spain in the province of Huesca, Autonomous Community of Aragon. It has an area of 128.50 km² with a population of 531 inhabitants (INE 2018) and a density of 4.28 inhabitants / km².
The town of Broto is the natural head of the Broto Valley, and traditionally it has been the meeting place of the Conzello de Broto, an institution of the valley that formerly served as parliament and deputation of all the towns of the same, where they had to take all decisions involving its neighbors; forest and agricultural exploitation concessions, economic regulations and leases, faceries (especially important in this place those that linked it with the French valley of Barèges), court, etc. The institution is still functional today, although to a greater degree than it was in the past, today it is governed mainly by the towns of Broto and neighboring Torla-Ordesa. Today its functions are greatly diminished with respect to the degree of autonomy it enjoyed with the old fueros, since it was sponsored by the Aragonese royal house, its operation being regulated for the first time in the 13th century.
The Conzello held its meetings inside the Prison building, which also includes rooms that were used as a prison until the 18th century, and where some of the inmates made engravings on the walls, some of them with singular skill, which have become one more of the multiple attractions of the town, being visited on specific dates.
The nucleus of Broto is structured around the national highway, called Avenida de Ordesa as it passes through the town, with all the shops open to it. The church is located in the highest part of town, on the same side of the road as the jail, although the latter is closer to the river. On the south side of the road, you can look for the Plaza de las Herrerías (also called "de la Santa Cruz" or "de los Porches") which constitutes one of the most beautiful views of the town.
The two neighborhoods that make up Broto are separated, one on each bank of the Ara, with the Santa Cruz neighborhood in the north and the so-called Barrio de los Porches in the south. It is a deeply rooted custom in the towns of Alto Aragón to consider and name as different neighborhoods simple groupings of houses that, as in this case, are separated only by a watercourse over which a bridge rises. Formerly both neighborhoods were linked by a single medieval bridge that was unfortunately destroyed in the course of the Civil War (it is worth noting the harshness that this conflict reached in this area of Aragon, reaching its peak with the phenomenon called the Bielsa Stock Exchange) . Today between the two neighborhoods the road runs over a concrete bridge.
Currently, the only surviving Romanesque bridge is the one that crosses over the river Sorrosal next to the so-called Cascada del Sorrosal, a waterfall that falls from a rock wall until it falls below the town of Broto. The Sorrosal bridge is nowadays closed to the transit of people who have to go through a parallel bridge enabled a few meters away and that, likewise, leads to the neighboring place of Oto.

Les moines de Cîteaux sont devenus propriétaires de vignes à Meursault en 1098, par donation du Duc Eudes Ier de Bourgogne à l'Abbé Robert de Molesme, fondateur de l'Abbaye de Cîteaux. Les caves, les celliers et les granges furent construits dans la vigne du "Vieux Clos" pour devenir La Maison de Cîteaux. Ce domaine fut la propriété de l'Abbaye de Cîteaux jusqu'à sa vente comme bien national en 1792. Les bâtiments restèrent inchangées jusqu'en 1865, date à laquelle le nouveau propriétaire, Jules Bernard, fit bâtir l'actuel château, au-dessus des constructions des moines. Jusqu'à l'arrivée du "Phylloxéra", le marché fut prospère. A cause de cette maladie, le Clos de vignes entourant le château de Cîteaux dut être arraché. C'est en 1995 que Philippe et Liliane Bouzereau firent l'acquisition du château pour y établir le siège de leur exploitation familiale. Le parc du château fut à nouveau planté en vigne comme jadis et les caves du XIIe siècle furent elles aussi restaurées...
N’ayant pas l’usage de toute la propriété, les Bouzereau mettent en vente le château en conservant leur activité viticole.
En 2009, Monsieur Garnier et son épouse achètent le château. Après deux années de travaux et de restauration historique, l’établissement « Le Château de Cîteaux La Cueillette » ouvre ses portes en septembre 2012. Il regroupe un hôtel, un restaurant et un spa de Fruititherapie.
Édifice de plan en T composé d'un corps central flanqué de deux pavillons, implanté au sein d'un parc arboré. Toiture, composée de toits brisés à croupe et de toits en pavillon, couverte d'ardoises. Lucarnes à couronnement rectangulaire et lucarne à baies jumelées et fronton cintré orné d'un chiffre "JB" (Jules Bernard). Édifice comprenant un rez-de-chaussée et deux étages dont un étage de comble. Moellons de pierre enduits et chaînes d'angle en pierre de taille formant pilastres. Baies rectangulaires, parfois surmontées d'une corniche moulurée ou d'un fronton triangulaire. Baies à arc déprimé. Garde-corps à balustres en pierre formant des motifs divers. Rez-de-chaussée, édifié en pierre de taille, en saillie (excepté sur la façade nord du corps central) formant terrasses avec garde-corps à balustres en pierre. Au sud, terrasse accessible par un vaste escalier en pierre à montées convergentes. Travée centrale surmontée d'un fronton-pignon cintré orné d'un cartouche sculpté portant le chiffre "JB" (Jules Bernard).
Lagos de Covadonga, Asturias, España.
El conjunto de los lagos de Covadonga está formado por dos pequeños lagos, el Enol y el Ercina de origen glaciar situados en la parte asturiana del Parque Nacional de los Picos de Europa, en el macizo occidental de dicha cadena montañosa.

The excessive influx of visitors, especially in high season, has also meant that access by car to the Lakes is restricted, and can only be accessed using public transport enabled for this. Private vehicles can only circulate first thing in the morning (before 8:30 a.m.) and late in the afternoon (after 20:00 p.m.). In low season, there are no access restrictions with a private vehicle.

Tunnel de l'ancienne voie ferrée, dite "ligne du charbon" sur laquelle transitaient les trains de transports de l'anthracite des mines du bassin d'Alès vers la vallée du Rhône, Lyon. L'ancienne voie ferrée est devenue "voie verte" et relie le département de l'Ardèche à celui du Gard. Les deux régions Occitanie et Rhône-Alpes-Auvergne, semblent bien ne pas s'accorder sur la politique de réhabilitation et d'exploitation de la plupart des moyens de transports interrégionaux, dont la voie ferrée de la rive droite du Rhône dont l'exploitation commerciale pourrait se poursuivre après la gare d'Aramon-Pont-du-Gard.
Another image from a productive day out to Nottingham visiting family this week.
DB Cargo Tug 60039 'Dove Holes' passes through the station and disappears east with the 12.20pm Toton Sidings - Boston Steel 'pig-pens' (6E02). Meantime, Cross Country unit 170114 stands at platform 4 after arriving with the 9.45am ex-Cardiff (1M60).
Bay platform 5 is to the near right, and currently empty. Once a through platform it was turned into a bay during the track modifications made a few years ago intended to increase the station's capacity.
I couldn't resist exploiting the shape and rippled texture of those 'pig-pen' wagons, and who knows how long they'll be around.
Apologies for the obscure title - those in the know will know, maybe.

RE4098 Freudenstadt Hbf-Ludwigshafen
Circulant chaque week-end à la belle saison entre Ludwigshafen et Freudenstadt, le "Murgtäler Radexpress" était le dernier train DB exploité avec des voitures de type N-Wagen en Allemagne. L'ultime circulation commerciale a en effet eu lieu en ce mois d'Octobre 2022.
L'habituelle 111 189 rouge d'ordinaire affectée à la traction de ce train était à l'arrêt depuis le début de l'été, il a donc fallu trouver des solutions alternatives. En juillet, la 111 074 en livrée "Touristik" a rassemblé bon nombre de photographes, tandis que le premier week-end d'Août, c'est la 218 460 en livrée bleu beige qui a été dépêchée.
Alors qu'elle laisse derrière elle le massif de la forêt noire, la 218-460 s'apprête à desservir la gare de Rastatt avant de filer plein nord sur la Rheintalbahn.
"È vegetariana o vegana solo una percentuale bassa della popolazione italiana (circa l’8%), ma l’ultimo rapporto dell’IPCC (Intergovernamental Panel on Climate Change) è molto chiaro nel sollecitare la popolazione mondiale “a favore di diete che implicano un minor uso di risorse.” Secondo il rapporto, un deciso cambiamento delle nostre diete in senso vegetariano potrebbe liberare milioni di chilometri quadrati dallo sfruttamento intensivo, riducendo le emissioni di CO2 fino a sei miliardi di tonnellate l’anno rispetto ai livelli attuali.
Ma chi sceglie di diventare vegetariano o vegano non lo fa per un astratto amore verso l’ambiente o per il futuro dell’umanità, quanto piuttosto per la raggiunta consapevolezza della simile sensibilità delle altre specie con la nostra, e del pari diritto alla vita. E’ del 1975 il saggio del filosofo Peter Singer “Liberazione animale”, un testo fondamentale dell’animalismo e dell’anti-specismo.
Ho fotografato alcuni miei amici vegetariani o vegani."
"Only a low percentage of the Italian population is vegetarian or vegan (about 8%), but the latest report by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) is very clear in urging the world population" in favor of diets that involve less use of resources. " According to the report, a decisive change in our diets in the vegetarian sense could free millions of square kilometers from intensive exploitation, reducing CO2 emissions by up to six billion tons per year compared to current levels.
But those who choose to become vegetarian or vegan do not do so for an abstract love for the environment or for the future of humanity, but rather for the awareness of the similar sensitivity of the other species to ours, and of the equal right to life. 1975 was the essay by the philosopher Peter Singer "Animal Liberation", a fundamental text of animalism and anti-speciesism.
I photographed some of my vegetarian or vegan friends. "
