Kay Brothers Winery on our wine tour of the McLaren Vale September 6, 2013 South Australia.

 

Bordering St.Vincent's Gulf, 40 kms south of Adelaide, the Kay Brothers McLaren Vale Amery Vineyards grace the rolling foothills of the Southern Mt.Lofty Ranges. Established in 1890 by Australian born brothers Herbert and Frederick Kay the Heritage Listed Kays Amery Winery celebrated its first grape crush in 1895 and is the oldest McLaren Vale winery still in founding family hands with third generation Colin Kay continuing the family winemaking tradition. The winery is located at the top of a hill 5 kms from the McLaren Vale Township and the Cellar Door, which is part of the original Winery complex, boasts some stunning panoramic views of the surrounding picturesque valleys and hillsides. The welcome at Cellar Door is as friendly as the view is seductive so allow plenty of time during your visit to taste the renowned selection of traditional premium estate wines and explore the Kay Family diaries dating from 1891.

 

Kay's are specialist traditional red wine makers utilising grapes from their own 22-hectare Amery Vineyard. The grape varieties grown are Shiraz (including the 1892 Block 6), Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Viognier, Grenache, Mourvedre (Mataro) and Muscat Blanc. Colin Kay's winemaking philosophy is to make rich fullbodied fruit-driven wines (using the original Open Fermenters and Basket Press) with small oak cask maturation.

  

The Kay Brothers Amery Vineyard range of fine wines includes Block 6 Shiraz (from vines planted in 1892), Hillside

Shiraz, Basket Press Shiraz, Grenache, Moscato, Founders Very Old Tawny Solera, and Founders Grand Liqueur

Muscat.

San Giovanni Battista ( Hl. Johannes der Täufer ) ist ein modernes römisch - katholisches

Kirchengebäude in dem kleinen Bergdorf Mogno, Gemeinde Lavizzara, im Schweizer Kanton

Tessin. Die Kirche wurde von Mario Botta entworfen und in den Jahren 1992 - 1996 erbaut.

Vorgeschichte

***************************************************************************************************************

.

.

Hintergrund des Baus war die vollständige Zerstörung der alten barocken Dorfkirche von

Mogno zusammen mit zahlreichen Häusern durch eine Lawine im Jahr 1986. Nach einer

langen Phase der Planungen und Diskussionen entschied das Komitee für den Wieder-

aufbau, ein auffälliges, zukunftsweisendes Projekt zu wagen und den Plan des renom-

mierten Luganer Architekten Botta zu realisieren. Seit ihrer Fertigstellung hat die Kirche

zahlreiche Besucher angezogen.

.

.

Botta entwarf die Kirche als ein Zusammenspiel vielfältiger naturhafter und spiritueller Symbolik.

Er gab ihr die Form eines turmartigen, oben in 45 - Grad - Neigung abgeschrägten Ovals mit

kreisrundem Glasdach. Als Baumaterial wählte er Marmor und Gneis in lagenweisem Wechsel

und erzeugte dadurch einen reizvollen Hell - Dunkel - Effekt.

 

Der Innenraum ist im Grundriss rechteckig; die Wände vollziehen den Wechsel vom Dachrund

zum orthogonalen Boden in allmählichem Übergang. Der Altar steht vor einer quasi - byzantin-

ischen rundbogigen, abgestuften Durchgangsnische, hinter der sich die Sakristei befindet –

wegen der Hanglage unterirdisch und von aussen unsichtbar.

 

Der Eingang auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite ist aussen unter einem kleinen treppen-

förmigen Aquädukt, innen hinter einer Säule verborgen. Die Wassertreppe, über die bei

Regen das Wasser vom Dach abfliesst, setzt sich innen unter dem Glasdach in einer

bogenförmigen „Himmelsleiter“ fort. Zwei weitere Nischen an den Schmalseiten des

Raumes setzen in dem postmodernen Kontext zusätzliche archaische Akzente.

 

Nur wenige Bankreihen aus hellem Holz verstellen den ebenfalls im Hell - Dunkel - Wechsel

gestalteten Steinboden.

The Tennessee/Georgia state line at this point is about 12 miles south of where I grew up in Cleveland, Bradley County, Tennessee. Back before there was an interstate highway, this was the quickest way from Cleveland to Atlanta, Georgia, where my Conn grandparents and lots of other extended family lived. It was a 120 mile trip (one way) and we made it several times a year. Dad always honked the horn and my siblings and I yelled and clapped every time we crossed the state line, either going to Atlanta or returning home again.

A Canada Line test train destined for Oakridge-41st Station.

Today, I was snapping some pictures on the Red Line. When this couple got on at Wilson they exclaimed "Look at the guy with the camera!" Unable to ignore their proclamation, I said hello and asked them if they wanted me to take their picture. They said yes, so I quickly snapped a photo. He said that there were video surveillance cameras in the train already (and pointed them out to me), so why care about one more? He gave me a bit of education about which places on the train were shielded from the camera's gaze, and replied that he had spent a lot of time on the streets when I mentioned that he seemed to know a lot of interesting stuff about the train.

 

The lighting was bad, though--today was quite overcast--and the first shot came out very underexposed. But then, the clouds broke and the sun shone right on them, so I asked if I could take another. Unfortunately I seem to have been having focusing/camera shake issues today (several of my shots were out of focus), and these two folks came out a bit blurry. I've tried to rectify it with some selective sharpening in photoshop, and overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, despite its many problems (there are quite a few blown out areas as well, because I had accidentally left my camera set to overexpose by one stop when the lighting was bad).

 

My stop came before I was able to ask them their names.

The St.Ives branch line is one of the best train journeys in the UK, most of it runs alongside the best beaches of Cornwall.

 

The last of the evening sunlight falls on the 2A50 2003 St.Ives - Lelant Saltings service, as it runs above Porthkidney Sands, between Lelant and Carbis Bay.

 

For two weeks, the branch has been running between Lelant Saltings and St.Ives, due to reconstruction of the bay platform at St.Erth in connection with the new park and ride facilities which open on 3rd June. British Rail opened the original park and ride facility at Lelant Saltings in 1978, in conjunction with Cornwall Council. It is now no longer able to cope with traffic levels, so is being replaced by larger and better facilities at St.Erth, which has a direct road from the A30.

Great Western Railway Class 42xx 2-8-0T 4277 "Hercules" rolls into a relatively tranquil-looking Kingswear with the 15:30 from Paignton. There was little planning for this shot, I didn't have any knowledge of the timetable so in hindsight I was lucky that I heard a whistle just after parking and was able to locate a vantage point.
