There is the sundial - speaks from the corner
Reflects light, color shades
Chronos, lord of time? I'm thinking of my promise...
F l o w is a river. Life movement
Corner of the house. Do you see the bend?

Z nároží promlouvaj sluneční hodiny
Odráží světlo, barevné odstíny
Chronos, pán času? Myslím na slib
F l o w jako řeka. Žití pohyb

Listen to Poseidon's story
Perhaps a pinch of verses, saddling Pegasus horse
Brother Dia, the trident dives into the sea again and again
I love the rumbling of water, Neptune fountain... 💦

Zaposlouchat se do příběhu Poseidonova
Snad špetku veršů, osedlat koně Pegasova
Bratře Dia, trojzubec noříš do moře zas a znova
Miluju zurčení vody, kašno Neptunova...

Sighnagh, perched on a hilltop in Georgia’s Kakheti region, feels like stepping back in time. Known as the “City of Love,” it’s famous for its romantic charm and the unique tradition that couples can marry here any time of the day at the 24-hour open city hall. In this photo, you see one of the historic city gates, part of the 18th-century walls built under King Erekle II to protect the town from invasions. Today, visitors can walk along sections of these walls and take in breathtaking views of the Alazani Valley and the distant Caucasus Mountains. Rising behind the fortified wall is the Church of St. Stephen, its tall bell tower standing like a silent guardian over the town. The narrow cobblestone streets, the warm hues of the rooftops, and the tranquil atmosphere give Sighnaghi a timeless soul, where history, faith, and everyday life blend seamlessly. This scene captures the quiet elegance of a place that has preserved its spirit, surrounded by vineyards and centuries-old traditions.

With its cobblestone streets and peaceful atmosphere, it feels like a place where history and romance meet.
Sighnaghi, gelegen op een heuvelrug in het hart van de Georgische regio Kacheti, is een stadje dat aanvoelt alsof je terug in de tijd stapt. Het staat bekend als de City of Love, niet alleen vanwege zijn romantische charme, maar ook omdat je hier op elk moment van de dag kunt trouwen in het 24-uurs open stadhuis. Op deze foto zie je een van de historische stadspoorten, gebouwd in de 18e eeuw onder koning Erekle II. Deze stadsmuren en wachttorens werden destijds aangelegd om de inwoners te beschermen tegen invallen. Vandaag de dag kun je over delen van deze muur wandelen en genieten van het indrukwekkende uitzicht over de Alazani-vallei en het verre Kaukasusgebergte. Achter de stadsmuur rijst de kerk van St. Stephen op, met zijn hoge klokkentoren die als een stille wachter over de stad uitkijkt. De smalle, geplaveide straatjes, de warme kleuren van de daken en de serene sfeer maken Sighnaghi tot een plek waar geschiedenis, geloof en dagelijks leven naadloos in elkaar overvloeien. Dit beeld ademt rust en tijdloosheid – een charmant stadje dat zijn ziel heeft behouden, omringd door wijngaarden en eeuwenoude tradities.

“From the dome of St. Peter’s one can see every notable object in Rome. He can see a panorama that is varied, extensive, beautiful to the eye, and more illustrious in history than any other in Europe.” – Mark Twain
The Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican is a church built in the Renaissance style located in Vatican City, the papal enclave that is within the city of Rome.
It was initially planned by Pope Nicholas V and then Pope Julius II to replace the aging Old St. Peter's Basilica, which was built in the 4th century by Roman emperor Constantine the Great. Construction of the present basilica began on 18 April 1506 and was completed on 18 November 1626.
Designed principally by Donato Bramante, Michelangelo, Carlo Maderno and Gian Lorenzo Bernini, St. Peter's is the most renowned work of Renaissance architecture and the largest church in the world by interior measure.

Morning light bathes the ochre walls of Palácio Nacional da Pena in a soft, honeyed glow, bringing its fantastical architecture to life. The curves of the domes and turrets rise playfully against the deep blue sky, their Moorish arches and Gothic flourishes revealing Portugal’s layered architectural history. Every surface seems alive — from the weathered plaster that tells of coastal winds to the intricate stonework that frames each window with quiet precision.
Standing in the courtyard, surrounded by bold geometry and radiant color, you feel both transported and grounded — part of a dream built high in the hills above Sintra, where imagination once met monarchy.
The Cuypers Library is the largest and oldest historical art library in The Netherlands. Beams of sunlight spill through the 3 stained glass windows, bathing the books in a soft glow. A spiral staircase curls in the corner like a metal ribbon, letting bibliophiles and art history buffs wind their way throughout the different levels.
The Cuypers Library is a research library in Amsterdam’s famous Rijksmuseum. It is the oldest and largest of its kind in the country and aesthetically astounding. However, despite the streams of tourists that flow through the museum, far too few seem to trickle into its remarkable reading room.
The 19th-century library, which has recently been restored, has been collecting content since 1885. Its shelves are stocked with manuscripts bound to entice any art history lover. While browsing its extensive collection, you’ll come across books, journals, and periodicals, as well as catalogues about art auctions, exhibitions, trades, and collections.
Thousands of books crowd the shelves, creating what resembles a wallpaper peppered with colourful bindings.
Technical stuff
This is a 3xp HDR image. The shots span a range of + and – 2 stops. This resulted in: 2500ISO, f6,4, 1/15+1/60+1/250 and 16mils.
The post-production HDR work was done with Aurora HDR 2018. After that the final prep work was done with PS CC. This included using the Clarity tool, balancing the lighting with de Curves tool and converting the image to Black-and-White. Finally, I added some copyright signs (in PS). The latter is, alas, there to stay due to the fact that my photos were frequently copied. So, don't bother commenting on that.

I was perplexed by this photograph. It is fascinating that trains, cars, and pedestrians co-existed in the same environment. You would definitely want to look to the left and right before crossing the road. But what a cool photograph.
The original black and white photograph is called "Port Pirie - Train coming into town" (GN 15157). The image is from the History Trust of South Australia, The South Australian Government Photographic Collection (ca. 1890 - 1957). I have edited and colourised the picture, and the unedited black and white photograph can be accessed using the link below:

Port Pirie is located on the east coast of the Spencer Gulf, South Australia, 223 km north of Adelaide. The city has an extensive history dating back to 1845. I found an interesting article from "Port Pirie Recorder" paper titled "Nosey Parker finds an article about the last train: from the 1967 archives." It provides fascinating details about the history of the trains in the area.
