on the corner of Russel square
Russell Square is a large garden square in Bloomsbury, in the London Borough of Camden, built predominantly by the firm of James Burton. It is near the University of London's main buildings and the British Museum. Almost exactly square, to the north is Woburn Place and to the south-east is Southampton Row. Russell Square tube station sits to the north-east.[1]
It is named after the surname of the Earls and Dukes of Bedford; the freehold remains with the latter's conservation trusts who have agreed public access and management by Camden Council. The gardens are in the mainstream, initial category (of Grade II listing) on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.[2]

Buttercups flicker in the meadow; Königstein guards the skyline.
Dandelion clocks and buttercups freckle the grass—candle-flames at noon.
On the horizon rises Festung Königstein, an island of sandstone and legend.
From here it looks like a LEGO fort, but I know the tales:
– Bohemian raiders circled these walls.
– Swedish troops scorched the town below in 1639.
– Even Napoleon rode past in 1813.
Not once in eight centuries did the fortress surrender.
Would you have trusted those buttercups and stayed, or marched on?
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES
ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK
Een vissershaven nodigt erg uit voor detail shots ,ik kon die weerstand dan ook niet weerstaan :-)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ a fishing harbor is very inviting for detail shots, so I couldn't resist that resistance :-)
Lomagnupur mountain reflecting in a roadside pool. It helped that tourism was down during my visit. Otherwise, I may not have been able to pull over to make some of the photographs. There were not many pull-outs on the road, and virtually no shoulder; so no traffic was helpful in seeing ahead to make stops when possible. South Iceland, April 2021

Didden Village
A Roof extension project called Didden village in Rotterdam designed by architecture firm MVRDV. The blue volumes have an archetypical house shape and contain the bedrooms of the house each with their own staircase from the living room below. The space in between is a roof terrace with built-in flower pots, a table, bench and open-air shower.

A very rare evening: one without Michael! I went for a night away with my friend Jon, for the first time in about 14 years! It was a nice, short trip but the night time photography aspect wasn’t ideal. Jon wanted to stay in and so it was an adventure on my own!
Ie… not fun.
I was staying in a hotel on the grounds of Canterbury Cathedral, so headed out to wander around the area. First thing I encountered: ‘The War Horse’, a wicker statue. I liked the stoicism of it, standing firm against the strong winds that night.
Ravaged by fire on the evening of 12 November 2022, the Dundee retail premises known as Willison House were latterly the subject of a planning application for conversion to student flats.
The building, at the junction of Barrack Street and Willison Street, was erected around 1934 to the designs of architectural practice Findlay Stewart and Robbie, for the local house furnishing firm John L Robertson Ltd. The appearance of this arresting piece of Art Deco in one of the city's ancient thoroughfares probably raised a few eyebrows at the time.
Robertson's ceased trading in 2011 and the shop—by then looking a little the worse for wear—fell into abandonment.
Within days of the fire, demolition of the building's shell began.

Ci saranno momenti dolorosi della tua vita che cambieranno tutto in un minuto.
Fa' che ti rendano più forte, più arguta, più gentile. Ma non diventare ciò che non sei.
Piangi, urla, se devi. Poi rimettiti a posto e va' avanti
(Cit.)

Hi!
I did this little creature the day before yesterday. He is really small, very difficult to modeling, but it was so fun, I love to do little cute things xD.
I hope you like it! <3 He hasn't name and I don't know if I will paint him.

Il complesso, firmato dall'architetto César Pelli, è composto da una serie di palazzi eco-sostenibili (si calcola una riduzione del consumo di energia del 37%[2]) in vetro e acciaio, disposti attorno ad una piazza circolare da un diametro di 100 metri, detta "podio", interamente pedonale e rialzata di 6 metri rispetto al livello della strada. I tre edifici si dispongono a semicerchio intorno ad essa, innalzandosi su diversi piani:
La torre Unicredit, conta 32 piani ed è alta 231 metri, attestandosi così come il più elevato edificio italiano (l'edificio conta circa 146 metri, più gli 85 della guglia).
La torre B, conta 22 piani in circa 100 metri di altezza.
La torre C, conta 12 piani e misura circa 70 metri di altezza.
La guglia, o spire, sopra la torre A, posata a settembre 2011, è alta 85 metri ed è interamente rivestita di led che possono assumere diversi colori a seconda della ricorrenza (una delle combinazioni è il tricolore italiano); durante il periodo natalizio del 2013, la guglia era illuminata di verde a rappresentare un albero di natale[3], il 1º marzo 2014 era illuminata di lilla in occasione dell'apertura delle fermate Isola e Garibaldi FS della linea M5[4] e nella notte tra il 14 ed il 15 giugno 2014 era illuminata di rosso per celebrare i 150 anni di Croce Rossa Italiana.
L'area commerciale del complesso è di 6 370 m², con negozi su due livelli, e quella terziaria di circa 50 500 m². Il podio è collegato con corso Como da un passaggio pedonale che passa tra i complessi
