Anoche te vi, Santa María

Yo recuerdo la perla ay gitanita mia cuando no estabas en via

Mira que pelito, mira que carita, que andares llevabas

Flores a tu paso los balonces tiraban, ¡ay! tiraban.

 

For the record... There is nowhere (!!!!) a well made flamenco dress! So i had to impro it somehow!

 

YES! Im homesick! [♥]

View at the side of Llyn-y-Gader

Looking at Llyn y Gader on my way up Cadair Idris.

Le châtelet d’entrée a été transformé en musée et le château Egeskov slot est situé au Egeskov Gade 18, Kværndrup, île de Fionie au Danemark.

 

Une vue à partir des jardins du château.

 

Majestueux et privé, le château, débuté au 14e siècle, a été achevé en 1554 sur une île, au milieu d'un lac bordé d'une forêt. Sa construction sur une grande quantité de pilotis de chêne aurait « coûté la vie à toute une forêt de chênes », d'où son nom Egeskov signifiant forêt de chênes. Ce château Renaissance à vocation initialement défensive est passé aux mains des ancêtres de l'actuel propriétaire en 1784. Celui-ci, le comte Ahlefeldt-Laurving-Bille, un grand collectionneur d'engins mécaniques l'habite toujours et le château n'est visitable qu'en partie.

 

Le château est reconnu en Europe comme le mieux préservé des châteaux Renaissance bâtis sur une île. On y admire notamment la Grande Salle de banquet, restaurée en 1975, et, disséminés ici et là, des trophées de chasse rapportés d'Afrique par l'avant-dernier propriétaire. À proximité, un musée de 3 000 m2, créé par le propriétaire, présente sa collection de voitures anciennes, d'avions, de motos et de voitures à chevaux.

 

Mais ce sont les jardins privés du domaine de 15 ha, créés au 18e siècle et entourant le château, qui constitue son joyau. Les jardins ont évolué grandement au fil des ans mais le plan date de 1730 lorsque Niels Krag conçut le jardin à la française qui en 1962 fut remplacé par le jardin actuel de style Renaissance par le français Ferdinant Duprat avec ses topiaires en forme de pyramide et de spirales. Un pont-levis datant de la fin du 19e siècle relie le château à une superbe avant-cour où errent des paons blancs. On découvre au-delà une partie des 750 ha de terres cultivées qui font depuis longtemps la fortune d'Egeskov.

The visit to the Museum of the Future is an amazing experience. Its architecture and materials make it an unmissable view in the city of Dubai.

 

The structure, with seven floors, is covered in steel and glass with the glass pieces, that serve as "windows", forming excerpts of poetry in arabic caligraphy.

This was the last bitterly cold morning of the winter. I hiked up in the dark and found the early morning light reflected on the ice - exactly what I’d hoped for!

Locomotive: 334 023

Location: Gádor

 

Between Guadix and Almería trains pass the Desierto de Tabernas - the only (semi-)desert in Europe. The railway line to Almería with its many viaducts and exraordinary landscapes really shows what rail vehicles are capable of. Between Santa Fe and Gádor the only Talgo-Intercity train on the line passes the Puente de Huéchar.

Thank you for your visit ;-)

East to Hammat Gader is the place of two crucial battles in the Holy Land - fought in the Yarmuk valley. The Arabs battled against the Byzantine armies in two battles - the 1st Yarmuk battle (634 AD) and the 2nd Yarmuk battle (August 20, 636). The 2nd battle was an important milestone - it signaled the end of the Roman/Byzantine presence of 560 years.

   

The site was destroyed after the Arab conquest. Many years later it was rebuilt and the town was named El-Kham

After a 2.5 mile hike in really strong wind Andy Farrer and I got to this point close to Gad Cliff and decided this was the spot for todays session.

Unfortunately sunrise was a bit of a disappointment but the dark clouds and sky made for a quite moody scene and after walking all that way I was not going back with an empty memory card !!!

I recently received a message from Dom Haughton www.flickr.com/photos/126574513@N04 /who very kindly asked me to join him at Trevose Head for a photoshoot as he would be in a nearby town for the afternoon being looked after by his 2 year old grandson.

 

Very sadly I had to decline Dom’s kind offer as Mrs P and I were going to be up country gadding around for a couple of days, wink, wink.

 

However the mention of Trevose got me thinking (steady, I know what’s going through your minds, thinking, that’s above your pay grade Bri).

 

So I went out into our garages to see what was in our deep freeze, can you see where this is going. Well Mrs P stores raw meet in the deep freeze, therefore I thought there might be some RAW files of mine in there chilling out and sure enough I came across this one for you to have a gander at.

 

Before I go, must tell you this. We were in a local shoe shop trying on some of those hands free slip in things you see on TV adverts, ideal me thinks, save all that bending over and faffing around following a few glasses of falling down juice when a frog came leaping into the shop.

An assistant asked the frog if they could help, yes he said have you any open toad shoes!

 

Have a lovely weekend, hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoy taking them.

Your comments and banter are so appreciated 👍🍺🍺🍺😎🍷🍷🍷😂😂😂
