Trieste is a city and seaport in northeastern Italy. It is situated towards the end of a narrow strip of land lying between the Adriatic Sea and Italy's border with Slovenia, which lies almost immediately south and east of the city. Trieste is located at the head of the Gulf of Trieste and throughout history it has been influenced by its location at the crossroads of Germanic, Latin and Slavic cultures. In 2009, it had a population of about 205,000 and it is the capital of the autonomous region Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trieste province.
Trieste was one of the oldest parts of the Habsburg Monarchy from 1382 until 1918. In the 19th century, it was the most important port of one of the Great Powers of Europe. As a prosperous seaport in the Mediterranean region, Trieste became the fourth largest city of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (after Vienna, Budapest, and Prague). In the fin-de-siecle period, it emerged as an important hub for literature and music. However, the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Trieste's union to Italy after World War I led to some decline of its "Mittel-European" cultural and commercial importance. Enjoying an economic revival during the 1930s and throughout the Cold War, Trieste was an important spot in the struggle between the Eastern and Western blocs. Today, the city is in one of the richest regions of Italy, and has been a great centre for shipping, through its port (Port of Trieste), shipbuilding and financial services.

A wonderful calm walk along the Afon Mellte, on the quiet side of the valley led me to this tranquil spot. A place to reflect and take in the beauty of nature. The arms of the falls were wrapped around me . Can I sleep in your arms is covered by Phosphorescent on my playlist.
This white LED Light bulb is about 2.5 inches or 6.25 centimeters in diameter. I have severely cropped the original image.
Have fun everyone and have a happy Macro Monday🌹
Ok, maybe the colors inside the cave are not natural. I am so pleased with the many places that LED technology is changing our lives. This revolution in lighting is not getting the credit it deserves! Here they can add more lighting with no heat or other complications that lighting a cave can bring.
My family are suckers for a cave. We actually visited Great Basin National Park largely to see these caves. These are Lehman Caves. Normally a cave is far less interesting or even fun if it has to be a tour (as opposed to roaming free within the cave). This is especially true for photography, where everything needs to be by tripod. A tour is simply not that conducive to stopping and taking your time with an image. So this set of caves already had a long way to go to win our love. But, WOW. These ended up winning our hearts for sure. This cave system was second only to Carlsbad Cavers for us. At least as far as walkway-lighted-mass-of-people caves were concerned (we still have a soft spot for un-named natural caves too). The tour went slow enough to allow some slow photography, which was great. But the cool part was the narrow walkways that weaved between stalagmites, stalactites, columns, cave straws, cave bacon, cave popcorn, and unique to this cave, cave shields. You can see one of these just above the blue area in this image. Nerds? Yes, but excited to see cave shields? YES.
This image is a blend to tame the highlights. Always a problem with lit caves. I will be posting more form this cave for certain. Stay tuned.
For today's theme I put an old stove cable on a black plastic bag, the copper ends in bad hair day style ;) - a dark paper sheet and some glittery cocktail deco swirls in the background, with side light from an LED torch.
Do you like the electric Boogie dancers?
HMM to all participants 💃💃💃💃
Located in the Urubamba Valley, aka the Sacred Valley, most archeologists now believe that Machu Picchu was the private estate of the 9th Inca emperor Pachacuti or Pachacútec. Once the Inca emerged from their ancestral lands around the border area of modern Peru and Bolivia, and began to conquer vast tracts of land, they established their capital at the site of modern day Cusco, Peru around 1420. Just like all roads led to Rome in the Roman Empire, thousand of miles of roads and trails led to Cusco in the Inca Empire. Neither Machu Picchu nor Cusco were ever completed due to the Spanish conquest that began with a military campaign by Francisco Pizarro in 1532. It took 40 years to finally vanquish the Inca. Pizarro was only successful due to a civil war caused by the sons of Pachacútec. He was able to recruit the emperor's rival brother to his side. Machu Picchu was used as a stronghold by the Inca for many years but was eventually abandoned. Terraces below the main level were used to grow food especially maize which was used to make a fermented drink used in festivities and rituals. (There's little doubt that the beverage was called 'Hazy Maizy.")
Die adaptiven LED-Scheinwerfer passen den Winkel und die Helligkeit des Lichtkegels automatisch der Fahrsituation und dem Straßenverlauf an und wählen aus acht Lichteinstellungen die optimale aus.
The adaptive LED headlights automatically adapt the angle and brightness of the light cone to the driving situation and the course of the road, and select the optimum light settings from eight.
The back of the house is pitch black in winter as there are no street lights, so it's always handy to keep a torch around. This small LED torch is always in my pocket and has lit the way up the back path on quite a few occasions.
Gustaf Adolfs torg ("Gustaf Adolf's square") is a town square located in central Gothenburg, Sweden. It was named Stortorget (the Big Square) until 1854 when a statue of the founding father of Gothenburg, king Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden was raised. Surrounding the square are the city hall, the bource, including the law court extension and the main harbour canal of Gothenburg.
Gustav II Adolf (1594–1632) led Sweden to military supremacy during the Thirty Years' War, helping to determine the political as well as the religious balance of power in Europe.His most notable military victory was the Battle of Breitenfeld. He was poised to make himself a major European leader, but was killed at the Battle of Lützen in 1632. Within only a few years of his accession, Sweden had become the largest nation in Europe after Russia and Spain.

Treating a flower like a person means to take a portrait shot. This image was created by shooting through a frame (lead in this case) and by using five LED spotlights in various positions. I had to go indoors as there is currently too much wind outside. Processed in Fujifilm's raw converter and macOS High Sierra photo editor.
I am very proud to announce that I am now officially sponsored by Led Lenser, this is a very proud moment in my life and I only have good things to say and many thanks to the people at Led Lenser, within the sponsorship deal they send me torches to help with my work and help promote their products.
This is an honour for me, to be sponsored by the worlds best torch company. So Thanks Led Lenser, I shall be doing product reviews on all of Led Lensers products on my Youtube channel, to help light painters making the right desicion before buying a torch.
Thanks to my wife for helping me with the lighting and light writing.
This is a close-up photo that I took when pointing the camera into a half-full coffee pot that I had placed on top of an LED lantern.
De Sint-Quintinuskathedraal, toegewijd aan Quintinus, is in het centrum van Hasselt gelegen. De Sint-Quintinuskerk werd kathedraal bij de oprichting van het bisdom Hasselt in 1967. Tot dan waren de inwoners van de provincie Limburg leden van het bisdom Luik. Ze is tegelijkertijd parochiekerk van de Sint-Quintinusparochie. Het kathedraalkoor luistert er de pontificale vieringen op.
Geschiedenis
Met de bouw werd in de 11e eeuw begonnen. Uit die tijd stamt de uit ijzerzandsteen opgetrokken onderbouw van de toren (62 m hoog). Voor de rest is voor de toren mergel gebruikt (13e eeuw). De kerk zelf, zoals ze nu bestaat, is twee eeuwen jonger.
In de 16e eeuw bouwde men rond het reeds bestaande koor een omgang met vier kapellen.
Als rond 1560 hagenprekers uit Nederland in het prinsbisdom het protestantisme uitdroegen leidde Gerard van Groesbeek het verzet. Op 19 januari 1567 kreeg de kerk te maken met de Beeldenstorm en samen met Maaseik verklaarde deze stad zich kortstondig onafhankelijk. Sacramentshuis, beelden, zijaltaren en het hoogaltaar werden vernield. Gerard wist de orde te herstellen.
Zondagnamiddag 14 mei 1725 rond 19 uur sloeg de bliksem in op de torenspits, die vervolgens brandend door het noordwestelijk dakgebindte naar beneden viel. Hierbij werden beiaard, dak en orgel van de kathedraal vernield.
Nog datzelfde jaar werd de nieuwe, huidige torenspits op de toren geplaatst. Een restauratie volgde in de 19e eeuw en men plaatste neogotische glasramen. Enkele schilderijen komen uit de Abdij van Herkenrode. De Hasseltse kunstschilder Godfried Guffens versierde de kathedraal met muurschilderingen. Ze is voorzien van een beiaard.
De Sint-Quintinuskathedraal is sinds 1933 een beschermd erfgoed.
As part of the so-called Bourbon Reforms, devised to limit the powers of the Church and of unscrupulous nobility and to further the economic reconstruction of the Spanish Empire, Charles III (1716-1788), king of Spain, also set great store by the revitalisation of the sciences. One of his projects was the Expedición Botánica al Virreinato de Nueva España sent to Mexico 1787-1803. It was led jointly by a Spaniard, physician Martín Sessé y Lacastra (1751-1808), and a native Spanish-Mexican José Marino Mociño (1757-1820). Besides exploring and collecting it was their task to found a Botanical Garden at Mexico City. Obviously they garnered many plants, which were also relayed to Europe.
One of these - arriving in England by the early 1820s - was the pictured Fuchsia arborescens or arborea. Our botanists had found it near the city of Uruapán in the state of Michoacán. In England it was scientifically described in 1823 by John Sims (1749-1831), the first editor of Curtis's Botanical Magazine, on the basis of plants grown from the seed brought back to England by that curious English jack-of-all trades - jeweller, antiquarian, naturalist, miner, business man, traveller and even utopian - William Bullock (1773-1849), who'd gone to Mexico for an unsuccessful silver mining enterprise.
Took out the batteries and backlit the led end, I liked the reflections up the sides of the barrel.
Happy Macro Monday !
The Rochdale Canal in Hebden Bridge, Calderdale, West Yorkshire.
It is a broad canal because its locks are wide enough to allow vessels of 14 feet width. The canal runs for 32 miles across the Pennines from the Bridgewater Canal at Castlefield Basin in Manchester to join the Calder and Hebble Navigation at Sowerby Bridge in West Yorkshire.
The Canal was conceived in 1776, when a group of 48 men from Rochdale raised £237 and commissioned James Brindley to conduct a survey of possible routes between Sowerby Bridge and Manchester.
The promoters, unsure as to whether to build a wide or a narrow canal, postponed the decision until an Act of Parliament had been obtained. The first two attempts to obtain an act failed after being opposed by mill owners, concerned about water supply. The promoters, to understand the mill owners' position, asked William Jessop to survey the parts of the proposed canal that were causing most concern. Jessop gave evidence to the Parliamentary committee, and in 1794 an act was obtained which created the Rochdale Canal Company and its construction.
When an Act of Parliament was sought in 1965, to authorise the abandonment of the canal, the Inland Waterways Association petitioned against it, and when it was finally passed, it contained a clause that ensured the owners would maintain it until the adjacent Ashton Canal was abandoned. Discussion of the relative merits of restoring the canal or the Huddersfield Narrow Canal in 1973 led the formation of societies to promote both schemes in 1974.
The Rochdale Canal Society wanted to see the canal fully re-opened, as part of a proposed Pennine Park. They worked hard both to protect the line of the canal and to begin the process of refurbishing it. A new organisational structure was created in 1984, with the formation of the Rochdale Canal Trust.
In 1997, the Rochdale Canal Trust was restructured, in response to announcements that there might be large grants available as part of the millennium celebrations. The canal was still at this point owned by a private company, and the Millennium Commission would not make grants to a scheme which was for private profit, rather than public benefit. The restructuring would allow the Trust to take over responsibility for the canal. However, the plan was rejected by the Commission, and to access the grant of £11.3 million, the Waterways Trust took over ownership of the canal.
