Form, light, shade and aesthetic purity coalesce in the historic tenth century royal palace in Seville. Formerly the site of the Islamic era citadel of the city, the citadel was developed into a larger palace complex by the Abbadid dynasty and Almohads through the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A difficult image to capture.

Beim Streifzug letztes Wochenende durch den Bergwald war ich fasziniert, wie viele verschiedene Formen und Farben von Pilzen es gibt. Wie dieser Bewohner heißt, weiß ich nicht, aber er hat schon ein faszinierendes Aussehen....ich wünsche Euch Allen einen schönen Sonntag

The Winter Palace was the official residence of the Russian Emperors from 1732 to 1917. Today, the palace and its precincts form the Hermitage Museum. Situated between Palace Embankment and Palace Square, in Saint Petersburg, adjacent to the site of Peter the Great's original Winter Palace, the present and fourth Winter Palace was built and altered almost continuously between the late 1730s and 1837, when it was severely damaged by fire and immediately rebuilt. The storming of the palace in 1917, as depicted in Soviet propaganda art and Sergei Eisenstein's 1927 film October, became an iconic symbol of the Russian Revolution.
As completed, the overriding exterior form of the Winter Palace's architecture, with its decoration in the form of statuary and opulent stucco work on the pediments above façades and windows, is Baroque. The exterior has remained as finished during the reign of Empress Elizabeth. The principal façades, those facing the Palace Square and the Neva river, have always been accessible and visible to the public. Only the lateral façades are hidden behind granite walls, concealing a garden created during the reign of Nicholas II. The building was conceived as a town palace, rather than a private palace within a park, such as that of the French kings at Versailles.
The palace was constructed on a monumental scale that was intended to reflect the might and power of Imperial Russia. From the palace, the Tsar ruled over 22,400,000 square kilometers (8,600,000 sq mi) (almost 1/6 of the Earth's landmass) and over 125 million subjects by the end of the 19th century. It was designed by many architects, most notably Bartolomeo Rastrelli, in what came to be known as the Elizabethan Baroque style. The green-and-white palace has the shape of an elongated rectangle, and its principal façade is 215 metres (705 ft) long and 30 m (98 ft) high. The Winter Palace has been calculated to contain 1,886 doors, 1,945 windows, 1,500 rooms and 117 staircases. Following a serious fire, the palace's rebuilding of 1837 left the exterior unchanged, but large parts of the interior were redesigned in a variety of tastes and styles, leading the palace to be described as a "19th-century palace inspired by a model in Rococo style".

I was impressed with how balanced and symmetrical this pole and wires looked. Yet I'm sure functionality was their first concern.
Happy Telegraph Tuesday.
Misty mountain tops rise above the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie on a December Day. When I first crawled out of the bush and stickers I thought I was looking directly into the eye of the river. The river formed a perfect bend from mysterious upriver to mysterious down river with a peninsula of bare and evergreen trees in the middle. The clouds and fog were barely moving but at five or ten minute intervals dramatic changes in the atmosphere were still noticeable.

Hornbeam foliage forms a veil of green leaded like stained glass with black branches. For how many millennia has the sun illuminated spring leaves for eyes comprehending or otherwise? Just doing the math very roughly, it has been millions of mornings like this, and many thousands in recorded history. But how many of them do you want to see in your life? At this time of year, at similar latitudes, there is one continuous, glorious morning gliding around the planet as it revolves.
And who knows what beauties coalesce silently near where you live every week — enough that the message is the same: go outside! Quick!
There's time to fav this photo when you come back. 😁
