Canada square Canary Wharf.
15mm Fish Eye lens.
One of the famous clocks in the main square, framed against the tall buildings in the back ground . The security is really hot here, they must pick you up on the hidden camera's, as they were on to me even before I had time to set up the tripod. I have to say they were very polite and friendly and left me in peace once they explained that photographing the cameras and building entrances was not permitted.

The Szabadság Szobor or Statue of Liberty in Budapest, Hungary, was first erected in 1947 in remembrance of the Soviet liberation of Hungary from Nazi forces during World War II. Its location upon Gellért Hill makes it a prominent feature of Budapest's cityscape. The 14 metre tall bronze statue stands atop a 26 metre pedestal and holds a palm leaf. The monument was originally designed by Zsigmond Kisfaludi Stróbl.

Night view of Khara-Khoto ruins, located in Ejina Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China.
Khara-Khoto (Chinese: Heicheng, "black city") has been identified as the city of Etzina, which appears in The Travels of Marco Polo. The present banner Ejin Banner is named after this city.
Khara-Khoto is the largest existent fortress along the ancient Silk Road. It was first built in 1032 and later became a trade center of Tangut Empire (1038 – 1227). The place is named after the Eji Nai City (Black Water City) in Tangut language.
The walled military town was first attacked and taken by Genghis Khan in 1226. The ancient town continued to develop and flourish under Mongol Empire. In Yuan Dynasty (1271 – 1368), the city was expanded.
In 1372, the last general of Yuan Dynasty named Khara Bator was surrounded to the armies of Ming Dynasty ( 1368 1644). After the defeat, the city was abandoned and left in ruins.

Vista a partir da Praça Antonio Prado, na confluência das ruas Libero Badaró e Avenida São João, em São Paulo.
Destacam-se os edifícios clássicos do centro de SP. Entre os mais altos, à esquerda, o edifício do Banco do Brasil. No canto direito, o Edifício Martinelli.
Ao centro, o Edifício Altino Arantes, construção de 1947 e, em sua época, o mais alto edifício da cidade, servindo como sede do Banco do Estado de São Paulo. Ficou conhecido como Banespão e, atualmente, "Farol Santander", numa ação de marca do novo proprietário-patrocinador. Tem sua arquitetura inspirada no Empire State Building, de New York, ainda que com apenas 35 andares.
Vê-se, por entre o jardim, o relógio analógico instalado no local. Foto feita por Carlos Alkmin - www.carlosalkmin.com.br - todos os direitos reservados

About Lightning:
Lightning is an atmospheric discharge of electricity accompanied by thunder, which typically occurs during thunderstorms, and sometimes during volcanic eruptions or dust storms. In the atmospheric electrical discharge, a leader of a bolt of lightning can travel at speeds of 220,000 km/h (140,000 mph), and can reach temperatures approaching 30,000 °C (54,000 °F), hot enough to fuse silica sand into glass channels known as fulgurites which are normally hollow and can extend some distance into the ground. There are some 16 million lightning storms in the world every year.
Lightning can also occur within the ash clouds from volcanic eruptions, or can be caused by violent forest fires which generate sufficient dust to create a static charge.
How lightning initially forms is still a matter of debate: Scientists have studied root causes ranging from atmospheric perturbations (wind, humidity, friction, and atmospheric pressure) to the impact of solar wind and accumulation of charged solar particles. Ice inside a cloud is thought to be a key element in lightning development, and may cause a forcible separation of positive and negative charges within the cloud, thus assisting in the formation of lightning.
The irrational fear of lightning (and thunder) is astraphobia. The study or science of lightning is called fulminology, and someone who studies lightning is referred to as a fulminologist.

My last variation on the capture of the Cappella di Vitaleta at sunrise. Since I had to wake up at 3 am to take this shot, I made sure to have every angle and light condition covered before hitting the road back home for breakfast.
