en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibellina
Gibellina (Sicilian: Gibbiddina) is a small city and comune in the mountains of central Sicily, Italy in the Province of Trapani. It was destroyed by the 1968 Belice earthquake.[1]
The new city, Gibellina Nuova, was rebuilt some 11 kilometres (7 mi) distant from the old one. The new city was designed by many of the most prominent artists and architects in Italy, but done in a piecemeal fashion so that the parts of the new city bear little relation to one another or to the indigenous architecture of Sicily.
Ruderi di Gibellina (as the ruins of the city are now referred to) remained just as it was after the earthquake, practically a ghost-town. Artist Alberto Burri covered the entirety of the ruins in concrete, while preserving the shape of the buildings and the streetscape. Additionally, Italian sculptor Pietro Consagra and Senator Ludovico Corrao formed an open air museum with a Consagra sculpture "Porta del Belice" or "Door to Belice" at the entrance. Consagra expressed a wish to be buried at Gibellina on his deathbed in July 2005.[2]
What's the first thing you do when you get to Las Vegas? Set up the tripod in the airport parking garage for plane trails, of course. Departures seemed to be on 19 which didn't line up with the Strip, so I shot arrivals on 19 instead. There are also some faint trails from helicopters giving tours.
The car trails on the right are taxis queuing up for the one taxi stand. It was an impressive operation.

The Manhattan Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the East River in New York City, connecting Lower Manhattan at Canal Street with Downtown Brooklyn at the Flatbush Avenue Extension. The main span is 1,470 ft (448 m) long, with the suspension cables being 3,224 ft (983 m) long. The bridge's total length is 6,855 ft (2,089 m). This is one of four toll-free bridges spanning the East River; the other three are the Queensboro, Brooklyn, and Williamsburg Bridges.

Muted sunset today. I accidentally left out something here, see if you can spot it!

O frio tem sido uma constante nestas últimas saídas, mas acho que tem valido o esforço e os pés gelados.
For a relatively small factory -- I could do a full tour in about 20 minutes -- the scale was wholly disproportionate to the rest of the town.
