Consisting of two interconnected ogival shells, the cathedral's octagonal dome was erected between 1418 and 1434 to a design which Filippo Brunelleschi entered in a competition in 1418 and completed in 1434.
A masterpiece capable of withstanding lightning, earthquakes and the passage of time, it continues to enchant all those who observe it from afar. The dome has a diameter of 45.5 metres.*

Each of us is interconnected in the web of existence, and we are deeply affected by each other’s suffering. If Christ’s suffering brings a Christian to see the cross in everyone’s suffering, then the Christian will do all he or she can to help relieve that suffering. It’s then that the gospel has done its job. If Israel’s suffering brings a Jew to see his or her suffering in the suffering of everyone else, it’s then that the Torah has done its job. Without taking action to relieve suffering there can be no Jew; there can be no Christian.

In downtown Calgary, we have more than 18 km's of interconnected indoor walkways. It's called the Plus 15 system, because the pedestrian bridges that link many buildings are 15 feet above the ground. There are more than 60 bridges in the system. There's lots of art and several indoor gardens.
93-99 Pratt St
A century-old downtown Hartford retail-office building with the potential for conversion to apartments straddling the corner of Pratt and Trumbull streets is for sale at $2.9 million, brokers say.
Trumbull Towers Management owns the six-story, approximately 100,000-square-foot edifice on about a half-acre at 93-99 Pratt St. and is representing itself in sale talks, according to the building leasing broker Amodio & Co. Real Estate.
Built in 1910, the property is comprised of two interconnected buildings whose tenants include Caribbean bar-restaurant The Russell and Max Bibo’s On Trumbull St. delicatessen.

Rising from the bottom of what was once an ancient lakebed, the Trona Pinnacles are one of the most unique geologic landscapes in the California Desert. Over 500 of these tufa spires, composed of calcium carbonate, are spread out over a 14 square mile area across the Searles Dry Lake basin. These formations range in size from small boulders to topping out at over 140 feet tall.
The Pinnacles were formed between 10,000 and 100,000 years ago when Searles Lake formed a link in a chain of interconnected lakes flowing from the Owens Valley to Death Valley. At one point during the Pleistocene, the area was under 640 feet of water. These days, the area has less than 4 inches of annual rainfall.

Jorcks Passage is a passageway and associated 19th century buildings in central Copenhagen. It connects the pedestrian street Strøget to Skindergade. A part of Jorcks Passage is covered with a glass and steel roof. The steel construction is made up of coned steel tubes interconnected by steel hubs creating a grid supporting the glass.
The Rock Garden of Darjeeling offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the town, providing visitors with an opportunity to relax amidst nature's beauty and enjoy the serene ambiance of the hills.
The Rock Garden Darjeeling was developed by the Gorkha Hill Council Tourism Department to boost tourism in the region. The garden is built on a steep hillside, incorporating terraced gardens, stone pathways, and small bridges. The main attraction is the Chunnu Summer Falls, a natural waterfall that flows through the garden.
Landscape and Flora: The garden is adorned with a variety of flowers, shrubs, and trees, creating a vibrant and colorful environment. The terraced levels are interconnected by winding pathways and steps, allowing visitors to explore different sections of the garden and enjoy the scenic views.
The true understanding of dynamic balance lies not in viewing sand and water as separate but as a dynamic, single system where the whole is greater than its parts.
Just as the yin-yang symbol has a dot of the opposite color in each half, the sea is full of countless grains of sand suspended within it, and the beach holds pockets of moisture and marine life. This highlights that everything contains the essence of its opposite and has the potential to become its opposite. When in balance, the interplay between the sand and the sea creates the peaceful, restorative environment of the beach that soothes the soul.
In essence, the sand and the sea illustrate the fundamental principle of yin and yang: that seemingly opposite forces are interconnected, complementary, and necessary for a harmonious, dynamic universe

One of the most iconic monuments of Brussels, Belgium. Built in 1958, 102 m high and consisting of nine spheres 18 m across that are interconnected with huge steel tubes, it represents a cubic iron crystal.
The yellow meadow ant feeds on the honeydew from root aphids, which they breed in their nests. During winter, the aphids themselves are sometimes eaten. As a consequence of their feeding habits, the species only occasionally forages outside the nest. Evidence of their underground lives is their lack of pigmentation and the smaller size of their eyes,[3] compared to closely related species like the black garden ant. They are a timid species and will often simply barricade their tunnels to fight off invaders.
Alates (winged, unmated queens and males) can be seen on warm days and evenings of July and August. This is one of the rare times that they are seen, as workers open up their nest entrances and herd the young winged ants out of the nest. Colonies are often founded by multiple queens (pleometrosis). Later on, when the first workers emerge, fights between the founder queens will erupt, with only one queen left (monogyne). However, this species is also known to have single colonies with multiple queens and up to 250,000 workers, when they are spread out over multiple interconnected nests.[4]
This is another sunrise shot from that enchanted corner of our busy world, the meanders of the river Adda near Airuno. If you think that it is very similar to the previous one, The Round of the four Elements, you are right: this is the very same view, taken some minutes later with a different lens, so that it is classifiable as a "detail landscape".
In the previous wideangle shot I felt strongly the intimate interplay of the traditional four Elements - whence the title. Here, correspondingly, I was impressed by the feeling that the river and the wetland beyond were transpiring forgotten tales together with the mist. Tales told in the secret language of Nature, which we can obscurely understand since we are among Nature's children. Tales as ancient as the world. Tales from the Earth.
I was a blessed beholder of this little miracle - when I deeply felt that the whole universe is an infinitely interconnected totality, where everything is in intimate relationship with everything else - as modern physics teaches us. I am glad to have had a chance to capture at least some scraps of the magic of this moment and offer it to other people.

POMPEI
The thermopolium of Vetutius Placidus opens on via dell’Abbondanza and represents social mobility in Pompeii in Roman times, where merchants and craftsmen also held a high social status, reserved only to landowners in older times. Drinks and hot food were served in this place, as the name indicates, stored in large jars placed in the richly decorated masonry counter of the tavern.
The news stand on the back wall is of great interest; extremely well-maintained, it consists of a lararium dedicated to the protectors of the household(Lari), the Genius protector of the owner, as well as the god of trade (Mercury) and the god of wine (Dionysus). The house is at the rear, interconnected with the shop, decorated with precious frescoes and a triclinium for outdoor dining.
A hoard of nearly 3 kg (6.6 lb) of coins was found in one of the large clay jars placed in the counter, probably the last collections of the host, thereby attesting the profitable activity of the tavern.
Date of excavation: 1912; 1939.
Natural ice in the Netherlands is a rare occurrence. In fact, some winters there's no natural ice at all. Maybe that explains why the Dutch love to skate outdoors. They hardly ever get the chance! But when a cold wave hits, and the interconnected maze of canals, rivers and lakes freeze over, it's a spontaneous celebration, a national holiday. Businesses close their doors and everyone goes skating.
The Alblasserwaard tour starts in the town of Kinderdijk, a tourist mecca famous for its windmills. (Molentocht means windmill tour.) The Krimpenerwaard is one of the oldest polders in Holland, dotted with ancient villages, and you can skate through nine of them in a day. (Negendorpentocht means Nine Villages Tour.) You can read about the area's history in this Krimpenerwaard site.
Aside from the scenery, the joys of Dutch skating are the companionship of other skaters, and the delicious food served up along the canals. With so many skaters on the ice, you're guaranteed to find someone who skates at your speed, and gets hungry or thirsty with the same regularity.
The center of Monaghan town is the Diamond, one of four interconnected squares, and in the center of the Diamond is a Victorian memorial to the then Lord Rossmore, the chief landowner in the area. Erected in 1876, the structure houses a fountain with pillars holding up the octagonal dome. Each of the 8 corners spell out Rossmore, a letter at a time.
For such a small town, it's a very ornate structure, with a lot of detail that is, unfortunately, starting to crumble and disappear, such is the plight (until recently at least) of emmotive memories such as these.
A tree standing alone is only seemingly alone; its roots are interconnected with the rest of the forest and the surrounding nature. Plants can warn their neighbors of danger (such as pests) or coordinate their growth through these connections; they transmit electrical signals through their tissues in response to stimuli like touch or changes in light. This network allows the transfer of nutrients like sugars, nitrogen, and phosphorus, as well as hormones and genetic material, between plants... a wonderfully supportive world.
Wild came to mind while I was viewing this scene, I can easily see why it is grizz country. This is where I'd be if I was a grizzly bear far away from people....
“Those who have packed far up into grizzly country know that the presence of even one grizzly on the land elevates the mountains, deepens the canyons, chills the winds, brightens the stars, darkens the forest, and quickens the pulse of all who enter it. They know that when a bear dies, something sacred in every living thing interconnected with that realm… also dies.” — John Murray
Excerpt from ontariotrails.on.ca:
Terra Cotta Lane is a great way to introduce yourself to this conservation area and is a major access route to some of our other trails. Starting near the parking area, the trail follows an old road along the eastern shore of a pond and eventually loops back to the parking area. Although this trail is a loop, there are a number of one- way arms that allow you access to the Vaughn and McGregor Spring Pond trails. This easy trail is good for nature enthusiasts of all ages. At Terra Cotta, we have created a network of interconnected hiking trails, footpaths and old roadways that will take you to different parts of the conservation area where you can experience a mosaic of natural and cultural settings.
the creative process of 40% -80% is the most enjoyable thing for me, like a fetus in the womb developing and forming a whole and ready to enter the new world through birth.

BEAT is the sound of a kinetic ball (pendulum) colliding and beating like the pump of our heart which supports our existence (existence) in the world. The kinetic ball (beat) starts to move, the color travels, and it starts moving in LEVEL 2021. The kinetic ball as a symbol of the world that is interconnected with time moves to change towards maturity.
"... SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND OURSELVES TO DIVINE LIFE ..., because we are not alone and connected to each other towards the life-giving Creator ..."
BEAT - Existence, is the first painting of my rebirth in Traditional Art (oil painting) after 5 years of being empty (vacuum)

Your vision connects you to the earth and all that it contains. To stop and gaze upon the simplicity and complexity of this world is to merge with it, not to the extent of losing your identity in that merging of a moment in time, but to recognise that in the carbons and atoms of all creation, there is an interconnected life.
The King Stone at Garry Beach, with its crystal heart of quartz, is one of these natural monuments which seem to reflect that reciprocity of man and nature. We gaze upon it, touch it and feel its touch upon our own souls. 'Here I stand upon shifting sands and rolling waves, yet I will not be moved'.
As I looked at the beauty of this, I also noted the complexity and the parallels in our technical world. The 'web' is appropriately named, a network of interconnected nodes and pathways. Just like the spider web, the 'internet web' has a nasty spider at the core of it. the tech giants (Google, Facebook, & Twitter) who are sucking information from its unwary users, just like the spider sucks the juices out of its ensnared prey. Own your data; it's yours, not theirs.
The Diamond was built to be the new home for the Department of Engineering at the University of Sheffield. Completed in 2015, it took two years to build, at a cost of £81 million. The six-floor building takes its name from its unique facade, which comprises a cellular pattern of interconnected diamond shapes made of anodised aluminium, inspired by the form of diamond at a molecular level, over a frame of reinforced concrete and exterior glass cladding.

The American Museum of Natural History (abbreviated as AMNH), located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, New York City, is one of the largest[clarification needed][citation needed] natural history museums in the world. Located in Theodore Roosevelt Park across the street from Central Park, the museum complex comprises 26 interconnected buildings housing 45 permanent exhibition halls, in addition to a planetarium and a library. The museum collections contain over 34 million specimens[4] of plants, animals, fossils, minerals, rocks, meteorites, human remains, and human cultural artifacts as well as specialized collections for frozen tissue and genomic and astrophysical data, of which only a small fraction can be displayed at any given time, and occupies more than 2 million square feet (190,000 m2). The museum has a full-time scientific staff of 225, sponsors over 120 special field expeditions each year,[5] and averages about five million visits annually.[6]
The one mission statement of the American Museum of Natural History is: "To discover, interpret, and disseminate—through scientific research and education—knowledge about human cultures, the natural world, and the universe."
Note: If you ever visit NYC, a wonderful place of such to see. My daughter in law had some project displayed here a few years back. The day we (her, her two daughters - my granddaughters and my daughter, had a great time visiting here. So much to see, so many people as well).

Although the old logo appears to be a Star of David, it isn't - apparently. It may be two triangles for the Greek letter Delta (D for Dodge). It may be representative of law enforcement. The interconnected spirits of John and Horace Doge. Or perhaps they just liked how it looked.
The Tranquille Sanatorium was built to treat tuberculosis patients and then eventually to house the mentally ill. This is only one building of the dozens that sit vacant and abandoned on the old sanatorium grounds. All the buildings are interconnected with a network of underground tunnels that facilitated the movement of people and supplies when the cold winter snows fall. This location is reputed to be one of the most haunted locations in the country.

Rosemary Beach is an unincorporated master planned community in Walton County, Florida, United States on the Gulf Coast. Rosemary Beach is developed on land originally part of the older Inlet Beach neighborhood. The town was founded by Patrick D. Bienvenue as President of Leucadia Financial Corporation in 1995, and was designed by Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company. The town is around 105 acres (0.42 km2) and upon completion had just over 400 homesites and a mixed use town center with shops, restaurants, and activities. The town is a master-planned community located on a beachside road, CR 30A.
New Urbanist communities, Rosemary Beach is an architectural treasure trove, boasting influences from the West Indies, New Orleans, Charleston and St. Augustine, among others.
The grand homes (many with adjoining carriage houses that are just as extraordinary) are interconnected by a discreet network of pedestrian paths and boardwalks, which become even more charming at night, basked in the soft flicker of gas-lit lanterns.
Like most Traditional Neighborhood Developments (TNDs), the best way to explore Rosemary Beach is on foot (or on a beach cruiser). Wood-plank pathways meander through the town’s striking architecture, often revealing hidden amenities such as playgrounds, bubbling fountains, tennis courts or one of the community’s several cosmopolitan swimming pools.
