Continuing with my explorations in virtual geometric sculptural forms - This is my creation for Epicene's Round III
A beautiful perfect rose from my garden, thought I would do something different with it so put the frame round.

Tulips (Tulipa) form a genus of spring-blooming perennial herbaceous bulbiferous geophytes (having bulbs as storage organs). The flowers are usually large, showy and brightly colored, generally red, pink, yellow, or white (usually in warm colors). They often have a different colored blotch at the base of the tepals (petals and sepals, collectively), internally. Tulips originally were found in a band stretching from Southern Europe to Central Asia, but since the seventeenth century have become widely naturalised and cultivated. Flowering in the spring, they become dormant in the summer once the flowers and leaves die back, emerging above ground as a shoot from the underground bulb in early spring. The tulip's flowers are usually large and are actinomorphic (radially symmetric) and hermaphrodite (contain both male (androecium) and female (gynoecium) characteristics), generally erect, or more rarely pendulous, and are arranged more usually as a single terminal flower, or when pluriflor as two to three (e.g. Tulipa turkestanica), but up to four, flowers on the end of a floriferous stem (scape), which is single arising from amongst the basal leaf rosette. 11717
"L'art est toujours plus abstrait que nous ne l'imaginons. La forme et la couleur nous parlent de forme et de couleur, et tout s'arrête là."

En forme de carafe à décanter, de verre à dégustation ou...d'escargot, bref on y voit ce qu'on veut et on y boit du vin du monde entier dans ce temple-musée !
Dans la forêt de Haute-Sève un rocher à la forme étrange et attirante se détache de la végétation qui l'entoure. Le visage d'un être ancien semble émerger du sol.

LA FORMA DELL’ACQUA - Andrea Camilleri
"L’ingegner Luparello, esponente politico di spicco, viene trovato morto nella sua auto in una zona malfamata...la Mannara"...
La Mannara nella realtà è la Fornace Penna, un monumento di archeologia industriale che si trova in contrada Pisciotto a Sampieri, frazione del comune di Scicli in provincia di Ragusa.

Taken back in May, and to be honest, I've no idea as to what it was, not a clue, but the points of light were extremely tiny. Definitely a macro, just wish I could remember 'a macro of what'!
Thank you for visiting. Your comments and/or faves are greatly appreciated.
MLC Centre architecture cannot be overlooked. With elegantly contoured, stark white concrete, white quartz and glass, the façade presents itself as a handsomely moulded sculpture.
Harry Seidler AC QBE is a luminary of Australian architecture. Widely considered as the first architect to fully express the Bauhaus aesthetic here. The MLC Centre remains one of his most definitive works on the Sydney Skyline.
244m to antenna and 227m to roof. The MLC Centre was Sydney’s tallest building in Sydney from 1977 to 1992. It is currently the fifth tallest building behind the Meriton World Tower (230m), Deutsche Bank Place (240m), Citigroup Centre (243m) and Chifley Tower (244m). The tallest structure in Sydney is still the Sydney Tower at 309m.
Buckfast Abbey forms part of an active Benedictine monastery at Buckfast, near Buckfastleigh, Devon. Buckfast has been home to an abbey since 1018. The first Benedictine abbey was followed by a Savignac (later Cistercian) abbey constructed on the site of the current abbey in 1134. The monastery was surrendered for dissolution in 1539, with the monastic buildings stripped and left as ruins, before being finally demolished. The former abbey site was used as a quarry, and later became home to a Gothic mansion house.
In 1882 the site was purchased by a group of French Benedictine monks, who refounded a monastery on the site, dedicated to Saint Mary. New monastic buildings and a temporary church were constructed incorporating the existing Gothic house. Work on a new abbey church, which was constructed mostly on the footprint of the former Cistercian abbey, started in 1907. The church was consecrated in 1932 but not completed until 1938.
Buckfast was formally reinstated as an Abbey in 1902, and the first abbot of the new institution, Boniface Natter, was blessed in 1903. The abbey continues to operate as a Benedictine foundation today.

Heute verbindet die Oberbaumbrücke beide Spreeufer zwischen Kreuzberg und Friedrichshain. Von 1961 bis 1989, war die Brücke ein streng gesicherter Grenzübergang. 1864–96 wurde die Brücke in ihrer heutigen Form gebaut. Sie erinnert an ein mittelalterliches Stadttor, überbrückt die Spree auf 154 Metern mit sieben Gewölben unterschiedlicher Breite. 1902 fuhr die erste U-Bahn über die Brücke.
Das Schloss Morsbroich im Leverkusener Stadtteil Alkenrath ist eine ehemalige Kommende des Deutschen Ordens. Seit 1951 ist im Schloss das Städtische Museum für moderne Kunst beheimatet.
Das Museum Morsbroich ist das erste Museum in Nordrhein-Westfalen, das sich nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg der zeitgenössischen Kunst verpflichtet hat.
Um die verschuldete Stadt Leverkusen zu sanieren, schlugen Wirtschaftsprüfer im März 2016 Sparmaßnahmen vor. Das Gutachten empfiehlt u.a., "sämtliche Aktivitäten des Museums einzustellen und die Sammlung in ihrer bestehenden Form aufzulösen". Hiergegen gab es massive Proteste. - Wie der Stand der Dinge nun ist, konnte ich nicht herausfinden.
If you are familiar with the flowering tree called a dogwood, you might be surprised to learn this fact. What you are looking at is the true flower on a dogwood tree. The white petals of the dogwood flower are actually leaf-like growths called bracts rather than true petals. The actual flowers are in the cluster at the center of the dogwood bloom.
