Mallow (lat. Malva), or kalachik, or stem-rose - the type genus of the Malvaceae family - a herbaceous plant, usually annual, sometimes biennial and perennial. Today, about 30 species of mallow grow naturally in the temperate climates of North Africa, North America, Asia and Europe. Mallow was cultivated in Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece: a description of the healing properties of the plant was found in the writings of Hippocrates and Pliny the Elder. In the twenties of the last century, scientists discovered ecological plasticity and high fodder qualities in mallow. And large bright pink flowers have always aroused the admiration of artists who depicted them in paintings, and poets who sang about them in verse.
Mallow has long been known in folk medicine. The beneficial properties of mallow have been studied by healers in many countries. For example, an infusion of mallow flowers and leaves cures stomach inflammation and intestinal disorders. Hot baths with steamed leaves or flowers of mallow (mallow) help relieve swelling of the spleen. The forest mallow grass is a constant component of chest collections.
This image was created from multiple exposures blended together in Photoshop CS6 layers using the "Lighten" blend mode. All exposures were taken with a single Paul C. Buff Einstein strobe with a 22" beauty dish attached to a Elinchrom boom arm. If you send me a FlickrMail message, I'll be more than happy to send you some information on mostly how I photograph this style and what equipment I use, along with some YouTube video links that help explain this process.

Die Sperlinge (Passeridae, von lat. passer, „Sperling“) sind eine Familie der Vögel, die zu den Singvögeln gehört.
Es werden insgesamt acht Gattungen mit 43 Arten zu dieser Familie gerechnet. Das Wort „Sperling“ wird vom althochdeutschen sparo (mittelhochdeutsch dann spar ‚zappeln‘) mit der Endsilbe -ling abgeleitet. Ihre Verbreitung ist vorwiegend Eurasien und Afrika, wobei Afrika der Verbreitungsschwerpunkt ist. Einige wenige Vertreter dieser Gattung wurden auch in anderen Kontinenten eingeführt. So kommt der auch als Spatz bekannte Haussperling (Passer domesticus) beispielsweise in weiten Teilen Nordamerikas und Südamerikas vor, nachdem europäische Siedler ihn dort gezielt eingeführt haben. Auch in Australien und Neuseeland ist der Haussperling mittlerweile weit verbreitet.

Hay lugares concebidos para la soledad. Pequeños reductos de aislamiento anímico que, incluso rodeados de vida y agitación, resultan perfectos para aparcar la realidad en segunda fila y sumergirse en uno mismo, sin importar que a escasos centímetros la existencia siga fluyendo a un ritmo frenético. Un banco en la calle, un asiento en una estación de metro, un trozo de césped de un parque cualquiera: escenarios que llevamos dentro, donde poder desahogar nuestra tristeza. Yo soy un asiduo visitante.

PALAZZO TARUGI
Sul lato nord della piazza, di fronte al campanile del Duomo al n.3, si eleva l’imponente Palazzo Tarugi, già Nobili, bella costruzione attribuita in passato al San Gallo, più recentemente si pensa al Vignola come progettista. Il palazzo, tutto rivestito in travertino, spicca per il poderoso impianto e il rigoroso uso degli apparati decorativi cinquecenteschi. I prospetti sono divisi da una balaustrata in due ordini, quello inferiore comprendente il piano terra e il piano nobile, ritmato da semicolonne ioniche poggianti su alti piedistalli. Nella campata centrale, più ampia, una fascia rigonfia incornicia il portale, alla cui sinistra le arcate si aprono in un loggiato angolare, mentre a destra sono chiuse e accolgono due finestre. Il piano nobile presenta finestre con timpani curvi su mensole. Nell’ordine superiore, dove la balaustra sostituisce la trabeazione, la partitura è ottenuta con mezzi pilastrini dorici, le finestre ripetono, nelle cornici, quelle sottostanti. In corrispondenza del loggiato inferiore si apriva anche qui una loggia angolare oggi murata.
Plaza de la Constitución, Donostia, Guipúzcoa, España.
La plaza de la Constitución es una plaza situada en la Parte Vieja de la ciudad de San Sebastián, en el País Vasco, España. En esta plaza, con sus soportales como característica principal, se suelen celebrar las grandes fiestas y eventos de la ciudad, como la tamborrada de San Sebastián o la feria del día de Santo Tomás. Su edificio central fue, hasta 1947, casa consistorial de la ciudad, siendo ocupado por las instalaciones de la Biblioteca Municipal (1951-2000) y, posteriormente, por dependencias administrativas del área de cultura del Ayuntamiento.
Sobre el espacio que ocupa la actual plaza de la Constitución ya existía una plaza realizada según el proyecto de Hércules Torrelli de 1723. La nueva plaza de estilo neoclásico se levantó tras el incendio de la ciudad en el contexto del asedio de San Sebastián de 1813. Sus dimensiones se encuentran moduladas en 20 arcos iguales en cada uno de los lados mayores y 9 arcos, iguales a los primeros, en el lado menor.
Los balcones de la plaza están numerados, puesto que sirvieron como palcos para las fiestas taurinas celebradas en la plaza.
The Plaza de la Constitución is a square located in the Old Part of the city of San Sebastián, in the Basque Country, Spain. In this square, with its arcades as its main characteristic, the city's big parties and events are usually celebrated, such as the tamborrada de San Sebastián or the Santo Tomás day fair. Its central building was, until 1947, consistorial house of the city, being occupied by the facilities of the Municipal Library (1951-2000) and, later, by administrative dependencies of the area of culture of the City council.
Over the space that occupies the current Plaza de la Constitución there was already a square made according to the project of Hercules Torrelli in 1723. The new neoclassical square was built after the fire of the city in the context of the siege of San Sebastian in 1813. Its dimensions are modulated in 20 equal arcs in each one of the greater sides and 9 arcs, equal to the first ones, in the smaller side.
The balconies of the square are numbered, since they served as boxes for bullfighting celebrations held in the square.
Thank you in advance for all your faves and comments. I might answer several days later. And I might post other photos in the meantime.
Merci d'avance pour tous vos faves et commentaires. J'y répondrai peut-être plusieurs jours après. Et je posterai peut-être d'autres photos entre temps.
France. Vosges. Alsace. Haut-Rhin. Photo prise lors d'une rando en boucle, effectuée seul, au départ de Katzenthal, en passant par le Neuberg, le Sommerberg, le Galtz et la croix de Meywihr. Comme le lendemain vers l'Ungersberg, j'ai pu y voir une ribambelle de parcelles de vignes teintées de magnifiques couleurs (jaune, vert et rouge).
Merci à tous les viticulteurs alsaciens de régaler nos yeux à chaque automne par leur travail acharné de toute l'année !!! 🙏😉
En 2019, je n'aurai pas réussi à faire de rando dans les vignes alsaciennes pendant le magnifique mois d'octobre. Mais à la place j'ai découvert avec bonheur les environs du Hohneck à cette même période et je n'ai aucun regret d'avoir fait ce choix. Et puis qu'à cela ne tienne, c'est l'occasion d'aller rechercher les photos prises au cours de cette rando le 13 octobre 2017, dans les vignes autour de Niedermorschwihr, Katzenthal et Ammerschwihr.
Cette photo a été prise depuis les vignes du Sommerberg. On y voit le village de Niedermorschwihr en contrebas, qui est à mon sens l'un des villages les plus photogéniques du vignoble alsacien.
Au fond à droite, on voit les sommets situés au sud du début de la Vallée de Munster avec :
- À gauche, le sommet sans nom (645m) sur lequel est perché le Château du Hohlandsbourg. Il est singulier car de loin, on n'aperçoit ni tour ni donjon mais juste son vaste mur d'enceinte carré ...
- À droite, le joli sommet du Stauffen (898m), qui est le point culminant du secteur et que l'on aperçoit très souvent depuis la Vallée de Munster quand on regarde en direction de la plaine d'Alsace.
