Pisa is a city in Tuscany, Central Italy, on the right bank of the mouth of the River Arno on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower (the bell tower of the city's cathedral), the city of over 88,332 residents (around 200,000 with the metropolitan area) contains more than 20 other historic churches, several palaces and various bridges across the River Arno.

The photo was taken somewhere between Danbury Ct and some point in New York east of the Hudson River.
The film was processed in June of 1997 but I suspect the photo was taken earlier than that.

This is my sister's kitty. Her name is Jasmine and she's getting old, but is still very sweet.
Added to MSH, "Sometimes I wish I were a" ...cat. A housecat, at least. Someone to feed you, someone to clean up your poop, lots of attention, comfy place to sleep. And you don't have to pay them for it.

Event organisers go through great strides to think outside the box on how to be ‘green’, they have loads of press releases about how they’ve ‘greened’ the event and people who attend have a warm fuzzy feeling that they are being green. However, it isn’t long before people choose convenience over reading by putting plastic in the closest bin rather than the designated one. While some people go the whole nine yards on recycling, being sustainable and buying only organic, the mass of society is still interested in instant gratification, convenience and having a comfortable lifestyle.
The cities of South Africa had a lot of good ideas on how to green the World Cup, but can society implement the concepts and actually stick with the plan. Being ‘green’ might be trendy, but another current trend happening right now is displaying country flags on cars and blowing vuvulezas.
Flags stuck on cars show our pride for our countries, but there is a reason Cape Town is known as the Cape of Storms. Already a few have found their way to the gutters and trees on the side of the roads. The question is also even if the flags hold on through the winter, will they still be used after the hype is over, or will our cities dumps and waste piles be decorated with cocktail flags. Then there are the vuvuleza’s; regardless of the obvious flaws, with noise pollution and the amount of plastic which has been used to create them, where will these plastic creations of chaos be dumped after the game?

Guanajuato, Mexico, is one of the more picturesque cities you'll find in the entire country. Beautiful, colorful houses, plazas, and churches make up this town that's set amidst mountains that make for a great backdrop.
It's an incredibly photogenic city for both macros and panoramas and, while not shooting, there are plenty of options to have a traditional Mexican meal (or something like pizza, if you prefer).
There are some quirky things here, too, like the Inquisition Museum (a little tacky, but usually part of any package day tour), a mine, and the Guanajuato Mummies.
The mummies are both tragic and fascinating. They may even possible give you nightmares. These are folks who died during a cholera outbreak in the mid-19th century and were buried. Then the government decided to tax families for burial in perpetuity and, if you couldn't pay, your poor ancestor was disinterred.
Upon disinterring these poor souls, they found that they were (partially) mummified...due to the climate and conditions. In many cases, it looks like the mummies are screaming, and it seems one or two may have even been buried alive.
The panoramic view of the city from the Pipila Monument is also breathtaking, especially in the afternoon.
Also, the many statues and ties to Cervantes around town are quite charming. This city went all in on Don Quijote a long time ago and you find that they're still proud of the Spaniard here to this day.
Finally, there is a bit of nice street art around, though most of the pictures I have in this regard are very much temporary (all in chalk, as you can see) and from a competition. The quality, though, was impressive.
This is a poster I made back in High School that still is hanging in the garage at my parents home....I drew it from a magazine then painted it with my hippie day glow psychedelic paint.
The People’s Vote March - 23 March 2019
The UK, in political terms, is in a right pickle. A mess. A dilemma. And, dare I say it, divided.
I make no bones about it. I’m a remainer. The EU, far from taking away anything from me (except around £20 odd per annum as my personally contribution to the costs of the EU) has given all UK citizens something to be proud of.
The EU is more democratic than the UK. All countries have to vote unanimously to any law to become law; one dissenter and the law is binned.
The UK in the 2016 referendum (advisory not binding) was voted for by two countries to leave and two to remain. So a 50-50 split.
Enough of the politics. Let’s focus now on the pictures I’ve put up in my flickr ‘stream today.
The People’s Vote March in London on 23 March 2019 was a great opportunity for the genre of street photography. I will let the pictures to do the talking. Not all masterpieces of course but they represent the day and the meaning of it…for more than a million people who gave up their time to express their views.
I have some favourites. But I will let the viewer decide their own favourites, if any!
I hope you enjoy them and I’ll leave you to browse and to ponder.
Final words: with four grandchildren now, aged 14 down to three months old it’s their future we were marching about, and the generation above them.
I want us all to go back to being friends again and to not continue being divided. It’s not a lot to ask is it?
Dylan is an old fashioned boy, enjoying the simple delights in life. For him a perfect day is starting with a bowl of cornflakes with nice cold milk and then taking a stroll with his shiney red bucket and spade down to the beach. His name Dylan is of Welsh origin and means "son of the sea", really it couldn't be more appropriate for this little teddy bear. You should see just how happy his face is when he is making one of his grand sand castles, waiting for the sea to rise and fill the moat! His cute little button nose twitches with delight as the sand tickles his paws!
I designed and created him and he is available for adoption. Send me an email if you'd like to join my mailing list or give Dylan a new home.
This photograph is from a Flickr album for Easton Lodge Gardens. Full descriptions of this and each image in the album can be found here: Easton Lodge and Easton Lodge Gardens.
Easton Lodge Gardens, or the 'Gardens of Easton Lodge', are the garden remains of a 1947 demolished house with estate at Little Easton, Essex, England. The gardens are conserved by The Gardens of Easton Lodge Preservation Trust, and are open a few days each season, plus special events days.
Easton Lodge was built by Henry Maynard in 1597. A later-built Victorian Easton Lodge, with gardens designed by Harold Peto, was occupied by Daisy Greville, the Countess of Warwick, a champagne socialist, socialite, serial adulteress, and lover of the Prince of Wales. Daisy is described by Jonathan Meades as "the champagne socialist and horizontal socialite". She held soirees in Easton Lodge Garden, entertaining her select 'Warwick Circle' of fellow upper class and privileged socialist political and literary friends.

Zhaoling Tomb is located in Beiling Park, the largest park in Shenyang. It is the mausoleum of Huang Taiji (Emperor Taizong) of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) and his queen Bo'erjijite. Huang Taiji was the eighth son of Nurhachi, a great leader who established the Later Jin State and laid the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. He was an outstanding politician and strategist of Manchu, like his father. As the tomb lies to the north of Shenyang City, it is usually called Beiling (North Tomb). Its total area is 4,500,000 square meters (1,112 acres).
Construction of the mausoleum began in 1643 and was finished after eight years. Zhaoling Tomb, together with Fuling Tomb in Shenyang and Yongling Tomb in Xinbin are called the Three Mausoleums of the strategic pass (referring to the area between the east of Shanhaiguan Pass and the west of Jiayuguan Pass). Zhaoling is the largest and most magnificent. It is also one of the best preserved imperial mausoleums of China. In March, 1982, it was listed in the second group of Key Cultural Relics Units under the State Protection by the State Council. Its long history as well as classical architecture attracts thousands of visitors every year.
The layout here can be divided into three parts from south to north by three buildings: the Horse Dismounting Tablet, the Red Gate and the Square City. The first two parts are used for worship and festivities, while the third part is the burial place of the Emperor.
The tomb and surrounding park cover an area of 3,300,000 square metres making it the largest of the three imperial tombs north of the great wall. The area around the tomb was originally set aside for imperial use and ordinary people were forbidden entry. This forbidden area was opened to the public in 1928 and now forms Shenyang's Beiling Park.

Described as the following: A tall, wooded ridge is the most prominent natural feature of this park south of Mitchellville. Thomas Mitchell, a native of New Hampshire, built his cabin here along Camp Creek in 1844. His cabin site is no longer visible, but Polk County's first settler of European descent is still remembered by a park monument and the town of Mitchellville which bears his name.
In addition to its many recreation opportunities with over 175 acres to explore. The park sustains an oak-hickory woodland filled with mushrooms, wildflowers, and wildlife that attracts campers, picnickers, and hikers.

This is the biggest white-tail buck I've seen this year. I've seen a lot of little ones, many of the 6-8 pointers, but this guy is the biggest with at least 9 pts...and he's still growing until about september. Love to see big bucks. Apparently I missed a monster because my grandpa was trying to get my attention but it was too late. He said it was at least 10 pts already with its velvet. Wabash River Bottoms.

This is my cat Boston, he is old, very old, in fact in cat years he is a lot older than me and I'm pretty old.
He can still jump a 6 foot fence, hasn't a grey hair in sight and has more of his teeth than I have.
But....
He sleeps a lot (80% of the day), smells really bad (all of the time) and can only stomach really soft and squishy food.
So life's not so bad as a human! But there again I have a few more years to go before I catch up with him.

The Louvre Museum is the world's most-visited museum, and a historic landmark in Paris, France. It is the home of some of the best-known works of art, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo. A central landmark of the city, it is located on the Right Bank of the Seine in the city's 1st arrondissement (district or ward). At any given point in time, approximately 38,000 objects from prehistory to the 21st century are being exhibited over an area of 72,735 square meters (782,910 square feet). Attendance in 2021 was 2.8 million due to the COVID-19 pandemic, up five percent from 2020, but far below pre-COVID attendance. Nonetheless, the Louvre still topped the list of most-visited art museums in the world in 2021.
The museum is housed in the Louvre Palace, originally built in the late 12th to 13th century under Philip II. Remnants of the Medieval Louvre fortress are visible in the basement of the museum. Due to urban expansion, the fortress eventually lost its defensive function, and in 1546 Francis I converted it into the primary residence of the French Kings. The building was extended many times to form the present Louvre Palace. In 1682, Louis XIV chose the Palace of Versailles for his household, leaving the Louvre primarily as a place to display the royal collection, including, from 1692, a collection of ancient Greek and Roman sculpture. In 1692, the building was occupied by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres and the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, which in 1699 held the first of a series of salons. The Académie remained at the Louvre for 100 years. During the French Revolution, the National Assembly decreed that the Louvre should be used as a museum to display the nation's masterpieces.
The museum opened on 10 August 1793 with an exhibition of 537 paintings, the majority of the works being royal and confiscated church property. Because of structural problems with the building, the museum was closed in 1796 until 1801. The collection was increased under Napoleon and the museum was renamed Musée Napoléon, but after Napoleon's abdication, many works seized by his armies were returned to their original owners. The collection was further increased during the reigns of Louis XVIII and Charles X, and during the Second French Empire the museum gained 20,000 pieces. Holdings have grown steadily through donations and bequests since the Third Republic. The collection is divided among eight curatorial departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; Prints and Drawings.
The Musée du Louvre contains more than 380,000 objects and displays 35,000 works of art in eight curatorial departments with more than 60,600 square metres (652,000 sq ft) dedicated to the permanent collection. The Louvre exhibits sculptures, objets d'art, paintings, drawings, and archaeological finds.
Kuanzhaixiangzi is a gentrified tourist spot in downtown Chengdu, China. Also known as “The Alleys” (by me, at least), it’s made up of three alleys within a five minute walk of Tonghuimen Station in the heart of Chengdu. The three alleys are Kuanxiangzi (Wide Alley), Zhaixiangzi (Narrow Alley), and Jingxiangzi. Someone told me “Jing” has something to do with a well (water-drawing well, that is).
I’m not sure whose idea this was, but it is a pretty nice area. If you could step back in time about ten years (2004, from what I can figure based on signs and pictures in the area), these were just three ordinary alleys: slightly run-down, though inhabited and typical of the area.
Fast forward ten years to the current and there is absolutely nothing that shows that people lived here except the pictures on the walls of Jingxiangzi. (I always found this an incredibly ironic aspect of tourism: destroy the old, replace it with inauthentic, and sell pictures of the old to make people think of what used to be…though the people who seem to lament the past are the ones who didn’t want to live in the past. Selective recollection…)
Psychology aside, what you’ll find in the alleys now are usually lots of tourists. Though, being an outsider, I have a hard time knowing who’s local and who’s not. Besides hordes of people, you’ll find quite a few teahouses (for which Chengdu is famous) where they seem to be trying to outdo each other in terms of decor. Art galleries, boutiques, souvenir shops, a few restaurants, bars with live music, and even an upscale hotel or two also abound here. The majority of those are located on Kuanxiangzi and Zhaixiangzi. Jingxiangzi, on the other hand, is the “afterthought” alley (perhaps why it’s not listed in the main Chinese name?).
Jingxiangzi is predominantly food stalls for local food and also stalls for local wares: handmade jewelry, paper cuttings, etc. Jingxiangzi is also the only one of the three that at least has – and tastefully done, in my opinion – pictures of the way the Alleys were before gentrification.
Lastly, the Alleys come replete with the one thing that makes this a truly authentic experience: Starbucks, right smack in the middle of the area. If you can clear your conscience of the fact that this is inauthentic and gentrified, this is a very, very photogenic area, by day or night. I’d recommend early morning (before 10:00, when tourist buses start to arrive) or slightly later in the evening (8:00-10:00) for shooting with less of a crowd. Personally, I’m glad that I live less than a five minute walk from here.

The baldacchino is a 19th century restoration by Virginio Vespignani. It is in a pseudo-medieval style and has four Corinthian columns, which are described as porphyry, with gilded capitals, though it's not imperial porphyry.
The altar itself is the original 12th century one, and is made up of ancient marble slabs. On display is a modern icon of the Holy Face in the very ancient Byzantine tradition.
The mosaics on the conch or semi-dome of the apse, together with the wall into which it is inserted, were executed soon after the church was finished, perhaps 1148.
On the right is the prophet Jeremiah, and his scroll reads: Christus Dominus captus est in peccatis nostris ("Christ was caught in our sins"). At the top of the arch is a cross with the Greek letters A and Ω (Alpha and Omega), and this is flanked by the Seven Candlesticks of the Book of Revelation. The symbols of the Evangelists are to the left and right.
The main mosaic depicts Christ enthroned with Our Lady at his right hand, flanked by saints and popes. The Hand of God emerges from a wreath above his head. On the left side are Pope Innocent II, holding a model of the church, St Lawrence and Pope St Callixtus. On the right side are Peter the Apostle, Pope St Cornelius, Pope St Julius and St Calepodius.
Below this in turn is a frieze with the Lamb of God and the Twelve Apostles represented as a herd of sheep in procession. Behind the last lamb on each side are the two holy cities Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
In the area below the sheep, and on each side, the series of mosaic panels are the work of Pietro Cavallini (1290-1291). They form a strip broken by three round-headed windows in the apse, and show scenes from the life of the Blessed Virgin.
