España - Málaga - Ronda - Baños árabes
ENGLISH
This thermal building of the arab time is the best conserved of its kind at the Iberian Peninsula. It is located at the old arab quarter of the city, today called San Miguel Quarter, being the formerly outside quarter of the arab medina (city) of Ronda.
The bahts were built near the Arroyo de las Culebras (snakes' stream), a perfect place in order to be provided of water, which was moved by a waterwheel, in an current perfect conservation state.
The chronology of the Ronda arab bahts starts at the 13th-14th centuries. The bath is divided into three main zones, following the Roman model of thermal buildings:cold water, warm water and hot water bathrooms. The hydraulic system of the thermal bath has arrived to our days almost complete. The central room is the biggest and has got three parts, separated by four pairs of horseshoe arches above bricks and stone columns, which have the function of holding up barrel vaults, with nice skylights forming stars, closed with glass.
The building is surrounded by one wall with blind arches (no light can be seen through them) and has got at its end a tower containing the waterwheel structure. The boiler area is also conserved, where the water was heated, as well as rests of a tannery, which was the main activity of this place after the christian conquest of the city, which meant that the use of the building as thermal baths was neglected.

ESPAÑOL
Los Baños Arabes de Ronda, de época nazarí (s. XIII-XIV), están situados en la zona de la antigua judería y, a pesar de su extraordinario interés arquitectónico, fueron abandonados (la moral cristiana no permitía ciertas prácticas), y las crecidas del río Guadalevín acabaron sepultándolos. Al encargar la Duquesa de Parcent la construcción de unos jardines en esta zona, aparecieron sus primeros restos, aunque se obviaron hasta que en 1935 el yacimiento fue adquirido por el Estado. Las excavaciones realizadas hasta ahora han permitido rescatar las tres salas de baño (fría, templada y caliente) y las cubiertas con bóvedas de cañón (horadadas por tragaluces en forma de estrella), que se comunican por arcos de medio punto. Se conservan, además, parte de las calderas y de los sistemas de conducción de agua.
Cuentan con la singularidad de conservar completa su estructura, con las diferentes estancias e instalaciones que lo organizaban, siendo los más grandes y mejor conservados de la Península Ibérica. Curiosamente se situaban extramuros de la ciudad, en el Antiguo Arrabal Islámico de la Ciudad, actualmente denominado Barrio de San Miguel en el extraradio de lo que fue en su momento la Medina Musulmana de Ronda. Fueron construidos junto al Arroyo de las Culebras, lugar perfecto para el abastecimiento de agua, que se desplazaba a través de un sistema de noria, perfectamente conservado en la actualidad.
La sala central es la más grande y consta de tres cuerpos, separados mediante cuatro pares de arcos de herradura sobre columnas de ladrillo y piedra, que sostienen bóvedas de cañón (semiesféricas) con bellos tragaluces en forma de estrella cerrados con cristales. El edificio está cercado con un muro de arcos ciegos, que forman el acueducto, y tiene una torre al fondo con una caja de noria. Del mismo modo conserva el área de calderas donde se calentaba el agua, así como restos de las curtidurías, actividad principal en el lugar una vez que se abandonó el uso como baños tras la conquista cristiana de la ciudad.
Look another custom! This is my Black Bolt, (and was not based on an picture) an I like it. I used the Ronan torso and with a little silver paint, I think it looks nice. I would have used the wings from the bat minifigure, but alas I do not have the figure. So I tried my best to sculpt on something that looked like wings. The "wings" on the side of his arms look as if they are closed, not open. The hardest part about the figure was probably that little thing Black Bolt has on his head.
I like it, so hope you guys do.
Commentz r appreciate?
This is 30 sec exposure. We have seen similar shots in past but this is my version.
The Singapore CBD contains the core financial and commercial districts in Singapore.
This is a picture of the Radio Tower (Funkturm) here in Berlin during festival of light 2014. I decided to create a composition based on a) a long exposure shot of the Radio Tower, b) a shot of a star scape over Berlin processed with StarStax and c) a picture of the super moon I shot some time ago. The post processing and blending of all the three shots was done with Photoshop, the pictures where taken with my Canon EOS 40D.

De Pont Valentré is een 14e-eeuwse zes-span versterkte stenen boogbrug over de rivier de Lot ten westen van Cahors, in Frankrijk. Het is een symbool van de stad geworden.
Nadat op 30 april 1306 werd besloten het te bouwen, begon de bouw op 17 juni 1308. Het werd gebouwd tussen 1308 en 1378 met zes gotische bogen en drie vierkante brugtorens. Het werd geopend voor gebruik in 1350. Het was oorspronkelijk aan beide uiteinden versterkt; de westelijke toren heeft het niet overleefd.

----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

You may notice that this green iguana is not in fact green! She came to The Living Rainforest after being a pet for a number of years. It is common in the pet trade to selectively breed individuals with more desirable traits, and artificially create different colour morphs. This can cause issues within the captive population of the species, as it often involves in-breeding.
The green iguana (Iguana iguana), also known as the American iguana or the common green iguana, is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard of the genus Iguana. Usually, this animal is simply called the iguana. The green iguana ranges over a large geographic area; it is native from southern Brazil and Paraguay as far north as Mexico, and has been introduced from South America to Puerto Rico and is very common throughout the island, where it is colloquially known as gallina de palo ("bamboo chicken" or "chicken of the tree") and considered an invasive species; in the United States, feral populations also exist in South Florida (including the Florida Keys), Hawaii, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. Green iguanas have also successfully colonised the island of Anguilla, arriving on the island in 1995 after rafting across the Caribbean from Guadeloupe, where they were introduced.
A herbivore, it has adapted significantly with regard to locomotion and osmoregulation (the maintenance of constant osmotic pressure in the fluids of an organism by the control of water and salt concentrations) as a result of its diet. It grows to 1.5 m in length from head to tail, although a few specimens have grown more than 2 m with bodyweights upward of 9.1 kg.
This animal is a resident of The Living Rainforest which is an indoor greenhouse tropical rainforest that is located in Hampstead Norreys in Berkshire, England. It is an ecological centre, educational centre and visitor attraction consisting of three glasshouses, operated and run by the Trust for Sustainable Living. The glasshouses are named Amazonica, Lowlands and Small Islands respectively.
The Living Rainforest has been accredited by the Council for Learning Outside of the Classroom and awarded the LOtC Quality Badge. Each year around 25,000 children visit the Living Rainforest as part of their school's curriculum. It is open 7-days a week from 09:30 to 16:00.

"Winter Is Coming" is the motto of House Stark, one of the Great Houses of Westeros. The meaning behind these words is one of warning and constant vigilance. The Starks, being the lords of the North, strive to always be prepared for the coming of winter, which hits their lands the hardest.

Shot with my 105mm macro lens and heavily cropped. :-) I will post an uncropped version in a day or two.
I apologize for my lack of participation lately. I’ve been going through a major slump, plus have been dealing with some health issues and stresses that have sapped my creative energy. Plus I am in the process of house hunting with plans to have a house built and move next spring. Exciting, but also stressful as I have been living in the same home for 35 years. I am trying to post to the group at least once a week, and comment as much as I can. I miss the group and hope to be back soon. Hopefully things will settle down soon. :-)
Karren is the name given to the distinctive fluted and ridged formations of limestone, eroded by the elements along natural fissures in the sedimentary rock. Limestone is the remains of marine organisms, deposited on ancient seabeds, and the alkaline rock is susceptible to corrosion by rainwater which has absorbed carbon dioxide from organic material, turning it into a weak carbonic acid. When acidic rainwater permeates fissures in limestone, it dissolves the rock, creating channels through which water can carry slit,sand and other material, which, in turn, erodes an even wider channel, carrying even more corrosive water, and more eroding material. This is how caves form, and, over thousands of years, massive passageways and caverns can form in the deepest and hardest limestone. In shallower, softer limestone, collapses and blockages are far more common, and caves, often, do not reach such massive proportions. Areas of limestone topography are known as karst landscapes, after an area of the former Yugoslavia, characterised by such topography.
Hassendorf is a municipality in the district of Rotenburg, in Lower Saxony, Germany.
Hassendorf belonged to the Prince-Bishopric of Verden, established in 1299.
Except lonely trees there are farm houses, a federal highway... and one of my best friends is living there - hello Simone!
Hassendorf (plattdeutsch Hassendörp) ist eine niedersächsische Gemeinde in der Samtgemeinde Sottrum im Landkreis Rotenburg (Wümme). Der Ort wurde erstmals im Jahre 1299 als Hercenthorpe in einer Urkunde der Erzbischöfe von Bremen erwähnt.
Außer einsamen Bäumen gibt es dort hübsche Bauernhäuser, eine Bundesstrasse führt hindurch... und da eine sehr gute Freundin dort wohnt, habe ich den Ort besucht - hallo Simone!

This is my LC Verse Carnage, I decided to keep the torso and legs for him because I thought it suited him more than anything I tried out. I gave him a more "Superior Carnage" look to his head and tentacles rather than the simple venom looking one. I also changed his name to something I found kind of interesting. The people who created Carnage were apparently going to call him "Ravage" but decided to change it to "Carnage". I thought this suited him quiet well however so decided to go with it.
Tell me what y'all think! My version of his backstory is below!
LC Verse Spider-Man
Ravage - Cletus Kasady
- Normon Osborn realised after the "betrayal" of Parasite (Agent Venom) he needed a more savage version of the creature. One who doesn't have a cool head to gather his thoughts, because that's what caused him to lose Parasite to join Spider-Man when he was convinced by the hero to be good. So Norman used his OSCORP facilities to genetically alter Banshee (Scream) so she produced 1 offspring through Asexual reproduction. He then realised that the symbiotes mimicked their hosts personalities so he decided to select a crazed individual and who better than a psychopath?
- Cletus Kasady was approached by OSCORP and was fused with the symbiote, immediately it took on the savage personality and radiated with rage. He called himself Ravage and now follows Norman Osborns orders to kill Spider-Man.
I’m having a hard time believing this one is real. Not even five minutes after heading out to photograph my first new snowflakes of the season, I discover this nearly perfect beauty. This is the reason why I head out to photograph new snowflakes even though I have many hundreds from previous years that I haven’t had the time to edit. View large!
Slow, stable growth gives is broad-branched snowflakes, and this one shows some signs of spinning in a fairly stable way. This is the only way I can explain the side-branches always being larger on their right side when looking up at them from the center. If this crystal was rotating in a clockwise manner, then more water vapour would be available to build up the branches like this, but it wouldn’t have an appreciable impact on the order branches where the building blocks were more abundant. Just a theory!
The center ties it all together, and it’s very hard to explain. The large hexagon is sitting above the lower plate (you can see underlying features of the snowflake below it), and the darker dot in the center is usually a symbol of a start as a “capped column” type of snowflake. It’s very rare for this to result in a very large hexagon in the center, but more like the smaller one in the middle, gem-like in appearance… So where did these two hexagons come from? I don’t know.
I suppose the mystery would be easier to solve if I had the opportunity to flip it over and photograph the opposite side, but as soon as the photos were taken it caught a whisper of wind and disappeared.
I’m going to say that this snowflakes makes it into my all-time top 10 list. I contemplated saving it for later in the series, but if this is how the season starts I’m sure I’ll have plenty more gems to share as winter takes hold. :)

From ancient times to the present, philosophers have repeatedly emphasized the importance of living a frugal or minimalist life. The ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes said, “True wealth is not in increasing possessions, but in reducing one’s needs.” Mahatma Gandhi pointed to the destructive side of human greed, stating, “The Earth has enough for everyone’s needs, but not enough for everyone’s greed.” From the Buddha to Karl Marx, across the passage of time, many have expressed similar ideas. This minimalist concept in philosophy has greatly influenced the photographer, and its mark is clearly visible in his vision and framing.
The absence of color or the use of minimal composition in framing reflects the photographer’s inclination toward a minimalist approach. The fog, wrapped like a thick winter blanket, creates a serene atmosphere. In this calm and pure dramatic setting, human presence becomes secondary. Before nature, even humanity’s vast achievements become insignificant. That is why the photographer has kept humans and their architectural achievements in the background, framing the scene in a minimalist style. Here, nature is the primary subject—not humans or their constructions.
According to nihilism, or the philosophy of pessimism, human life does not has inherent purpose. Evolutionary theory has shown that humans are an unintended outcome of nature’s evolutionary process. Yet human beings, regarded as the finest of creations, continue to exploit all their knowledge and effort into seeking meaning in life. They establish ever-greater architectural structures upon the heart of nature. In proving their superiority, they seem to challenge nature itself. Viewing nature as an adversary, humanity gradually distances itself further and further from it.
This is another bird I've seen plenty of times but never managed to photograph decently. I spent New Year's Day visiting a new refuge, San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge. It was packed with many thousands of birds--and I'm sure it serves a vital conservation role, which is most important--but unfortunately the refuge is bisected by an extremely (insanely!) noisy highway. Only at the far end of a trail, when I sat down to watch these avocets and other birds, was I able to find a measure of tranquility. American avocets, San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge, California.

Chloé is a badass. This shoot was rainy, cold, dirty and pretty physically intense. She was totally down with it all. Champ.

Thank you for letting me take your picture lady, you were wonderful. Think up some way to equally torture me and I'll do it no questions asked.
This is the superb view from Stanage Edge which is located in the High Peak area of the Peak District Nation Park. It was an incredibly windy February afternoon but always worth the hike up.
This is the nebula rich region in the constellation of Monoceros the Unicorn with the dark Cone Nebula (left of centre) and the small V-shaped and bright Hubble’s Variable Nebula at bottom, a reflection nebula that varies in form and brightness. Above the Cone Nebula is the triangular Christmas Tree Cluster, NGC 2264, here upside down as the bright blue star 15 Mon is the base of the tree. The large region of nebulosity is Sharpless 2-273. The V-shaped dark nebula above centre is LDN 1603.
Near 15 Mon is a blue reflection nebula. Another blue reflection nebula IC 2169 and associated star cluster Collinder 95 is at left — I framed the field to contain this nebula. Other bits of reflection nebulosity surround it - clockwise: NGC 2245, NGC 2247 and IC 446 above the main nebula. The rich faint cluster near centre is Trumpler 5.
This is a blend of 8 x 5-minute exposures at ISO 800 unfiltered with 6 x 8-minute exposures at ISO 1600 shot through an Optolong L-Enhance dual-band nebula enhancement filter (it lets through only Oxygen III blue-green and Hydrogen-alpha red to really enhance the nebulosity). All exposures with the Canon EOS Ra mirrorless camera through the SharpStar HNT150 Hyperbolic Newtonian Astrograph at f/2.8, from home on a very clear moonless night January 26, 2020. All stacked, aligned and blended in Photoshop 2020.
I know this is not the best evening flight shot but for the Nikon Coolpix B700 it is as good as it gets, the sun has set, aperture is set to 5.6 and the ISO 3200 to squeeze out a 160 shutter speed, Today the Inspire Me Thursday goes to this little camera. The geese are waiting for that last light to leave and fly to roost on the river. I know they are about to leave out, they are swimming to formation, they are cackling to each other, they are raising and flapping, they are honking in excitement then boom they take flight all in a group.
Yes indeed, Autumn is a feast of color, shapes and beauty. So much to do as a photographer in this season, it truly is an inspiration. I keep remember what my photographer teacher tells me once in a while, "don't let color fool you, you need light too to have a good photograph". Of course it has to be the appropriate light, no too much, not too little...
I've been absent of Flickr for a while taking care house renovations, trips and more. I missed you all, and hope that all of you are doing well.
Have a fantastic season, and for the ones that celebrate Halloween, have a great time, and be safe, most of all...
Somehow Fall brings peace and serenity, take a look at this, and enjoy this awesome song...

I enjoy nature photography the most, since I love the outdoors and long hiking trips. Macro photography is a true passion for me, since I get to watch a miniature world that opens without limits, before the camera makes the funny sound.
Graphic design is another way to express myself. I love reinventing a photo that I have seen in different ways. Sometimes, I use my own textures to do so.

Summer is fading away. This spot was filled with beautiful, golden light all around when the northbound dinner train would pass through earlier in the summer. A small amount of light is present tonight, illuminating Mass Coastal 2007 with the dinner train like a spotlight. Enjoy the last bit of summer, as winter will be here before you know it.
The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live
