The rock formation "Twelve Apostles" in morning light. Australia is still closed for most tourists. So, all we have left are "postcards" like this one.
"Die zwölf Apostel" strahlen in der Morgensonne. Australien ist immer noch für die meisten Touristen geschlossen. Also, bleiben uns nur "Postkarten" wie diese.
Beer crates form the table's support structure. Fellow at bottom left looks interesting.
The top right corner is strange, I think it may have been a double exposure or some developing accident. I actually photoshopped out some weird dark streak that made no sense. How do you say "bon appetite" in Spanish??

La iglesia pertenece al convento de las Madres Agustinas de San Mateo (provincia de Castellón, España) con el que es limÃtrofe.
Este convento fue formado en 1590 con monjas venidas del monasterio de Agustinas de Mirambel. (Teruel)
El edificio conventual se construyó en terrenos cedidos por la Villa que estaban ocupados por el hospital que tuvo que ser trasladado. La parte trasera del convento abarca en sus muros una de las antiguas torres de las murallas, llamada la torre de las Agustinas que flanqueaba el portal de la Vedella.
La congregación ha estado ininterrumpidamente desde la fecha de fundación en el convento, excepto el breve perÃodo de la guerra civil en que el convento fue expropiado por la C.N.T.
La iglesia empezó a ser construida en 1701 y fue terminada en 1704.
La iglesia es de planta de cruz latina, con capillas laterales y deambulatorios.
Cubierta con bóveda de medio punto con lunetos y cépula sobre el crucero.
Interesante dentro de la funcionalidad de un convento de clausura son el coro y el matroneo protegidos por celosÃas de madera.
Las torres iban cubiertas por cuatro aguas a teja.

FrigorÃfico Anglo del Uruguay
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FrigorÃfico Anglo del Uruguay was a meatpacking plant located at Fray Bentos, Uruguay, on the Uruguay River bank.
In 1924, the Vestey group purchases the old installations of Liebig Extract of Meat Company and the production goes on under a new name.
During its peak period, El Anglo had 5,000 workers whose ranks included English, Belgians, Russians, Spanish and Italians. It finally closed in 1979 after Europe and the United States had cut back their purchases from Latin America. Small brick houses with thick walls running along the river's edge in Fray Bentos form the "Barrio Anglo," a city-within-a-city where meatpacking workers lived that featured a hospital, a school, a social club and a football squad.[1]

El proyecto Metropol Parasol es una estructura en forma de pérgola de madera y hormigón ubicada en la céntrica plaza de la Encarnación de la ciudad de Sevilla. Cuenta con unas dimensiones de 150 metros de largo, 70 metros de ancho y una altura aproximada de 26 metros. Su base alberga un mercado tradicional y locales de restauración en la planta baja, una plaza de espectáculos y el museo arqueológico Antiquarium. La estructura se corona con una terraza y un mirador que ofrece una vista panorámica del casco antiguo de la ciudad.
La obra, compuesta principalmente de madera laminada, está formada por una gran retÃcula en forma de parasol sostenida sobre seis pilares que abarcan tanto la plaza de la Encarnación como la Plaza Mayor de la ciudad. Cada una de sus costillas componen una distribución espacial donde cada nervadura ofrece una curvatura propia, lo cual aporta al conjunto una sensación de movimiento ondulatorio. Aunque su diseño está inspirado en las bóvedas de la Catedral de Sevilla, por su perfil fungiforme, pronto recibió por parte de los ciudadanos el nombre de ‘Las Setas’.
El proyecto fue el ganador del concurso abierto por el Ayuntamiento de Sevilla para llevar a cabo la rehabilitación de la plaza en la que se ubica. Su diseñador fue el arquitecto berlinés Jürgen Mayer. Por su diseño vanguardista y funciones turÃsticas, se ha convertido en un icono del centro histórico y de la ciudad de Sevilla. En enero de 2013, el espacio Metropol Parasol fue elegido, entre los 335 proyectos candidatos, como uno de cinco proyectos finalistas del Premio de Arquitectura Contemporánea Mies van der Rohe que conceden bianualmente la Unión Europea y la fundación Fundación Mies van der Rohe.
Las obras comenzaron el 26 de junio de 2005. Las múltiples dificultades que surgieron sobre las obras produjeron controversias y retrasos que triplicaron el coste previsto de la obra hasta llegar a los 100 millones de euros. Finalmente, el Metropol Parasol fue inaugurado el 27 de marzo de 2011 y desde entonces se ha consolidado como uno de los principales atractivos turÃsticos de la ciudad, llegando a alcanzar el millón de visitantes en su primer año.

Grand dog, Izzy with a ball on the beach
I petali degli Iris, che risplendono al sole di maggio, somigliano a vele, dispiegate a catturare la luce. Una soluzione adattativa enfatizzata, quest'ultima, per attirare l'attenzione, ma che presenta evidenti limiti. Con i primi temporali primaverili, infatti, le vele, collocate all'estremità di lunghi steli, finiscono per catturare le raffiche di vento e per causare l'abbattimento del fiore. In realtà , a ben vedere, non è stata la Natura a "inventare" queste forme, ma l'uomo ..... ..
An image I’ve been pondering over for a while. It was nearly the first photo to post on my return from the Lakes early November but for some reason I didn’t and moved on to other images, now with 4 seascapes in row it was time to move inland.
The sensuous forms of the huge leaves of the Sierra Corn Lilly plant. I never tire of the amazing patterns. Hopefully, before I pass on from old age, I can master enough of Topaz etc. to change the background...........hopefully.

Great Egret on Wildwing Lake.
Between 35 to 41 inches long with a wingspan of 4 fewet 7 inches. A large, all white heron with a yellow bill and black legs. In breeding plumage has long lacy plumes on back. In southern Florida, white form of the Great Blue Heron, known as "Great White Heron" is similar but larger with greenish-yrllow legs. Much smaller Snowy Egret has black bill and black legs with yellow feet.
The Great Egret can be found in both freshwater and salt marshes, marshy ponds and tidal flats.
They breed locally from Oregon south to western Mexico, from Minnesota to the Mississippi Valley and Southeast, and along the Atlantic Coast north to southern New England. They winter regularly north along the Pacific Coast to Oregon, the Southwest, Texas and the Gulf Coast states. On the Atlantic Coast, north to New Jersey. Also in tropical America and warmer parts of the Old World.

The red kite calls
Across an empty sky.
No one comes, no one goes.
A thousand ancestors
Breathe through a single breath.
The bell fades into silence.
Form is emptiness.
Emptiness is form.
A child asks for another story.
The kettle boils.
The bills remain unpaid.
I bow and smile.

The Himalayas, or Himalaya, form a mountain range in Asia separating the plains of the Indian subcontinent from the Tibetan Plateau.
The Himalayan range has many of the Earth's highest peaks, including the highest, Mount Everest. The Himalayas include over fifty mountains exceeding 7,200 metres (23,600 ft) in elevation, including ten of the fourteen 8000m peaks. By contrast, the highest peak outside Asia – Aconcagua, in the Andes – is 6,961 metres (22,838 ft) tall.
The Himalayan range is bordered on the northwest by the Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges, on the north by the Tibetan Plateau, and on the south by the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The Himalayas are distinct from the other great ranges of central Asia, although sometimes the term Himalaya is loosely used to include the Karakoram and some of the other ranges. The Himalayas – inhabited by 52.7 million people – are spread across five countries: India, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Pakistan, with the first three countries having sovereignty over most of the range. Some of the world's major rivers, the Indus, the Ganges, and the Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, rise in the Himalayas, and their combined drainage basin is home to roughly 600 million people. The Himalayas have profoundly shaped the cultures of the Indian subcontinent; many Himalayan peaks are sacred in Hinduism and Buddhism.
Lifted by the subduction of the Indian tectonic plate under the Eurasian Plate, the Himalayan mountain range runs, west-northwest to east-southeast, in an arc 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) long.
