Acrópole de Atenas
Grecia
"This elegant building of the Ionian order is called the Erechtheion ( in Portuguese Erectheion), originating from the name of Erechtheus , the mythical king of Athens.
The construction of the Greek temple began before the beginning of the Peloponnesian War (431 BC) or after the conclusion of the “peace of Nicias” (421 BC) and ended in 406 BC, after the works were interrupted because of the war."

The Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia (Catalan: Catedral de la Santa Creu i Santa Eulàlia), also known as Barcelona Cathedral, is the Gothic cathedral and seat of the Archbishop of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
The cathedral was constructed from the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries, with the principal work done in the fourteenth century.
The cloister, which encloses the Well of the Geese (Font de les Oques) was completed in 1448.
In the late nineteenth century, the neo-Gothic façade was constructed over the nondescript exterior that was common to Catalan churches.
The roof is notable for its gargoyles, featuring a wide range of animals, both domestic and mythical.
The weather stated thunderstorms, solid cloud cover, and just awful weather to dominate the landscape for the next few days. Yesterday, while I was getting comfortable sitting around the house irritated that I wasn't going to get out the storm system broke, and while my first thought was it would be just for a few minutes, the weather amended itself and said it would be partly cloudy with a chance of storms. So, I left the house at 4pm and headed out into the mountains. At first I thought I would be lucky to get anything, but the longer I drove the more the sky broke for me. Though that wasn't the only issue at hand, in the peaks act like a cloud forest, so I was driving in and out of a dense wall of clouds through the various peaks and valleys until I broke through at last. I hadn't intended to drive from the end of the parkway to Craggy, but as a photographer, it's my job to chase the light. This valley stretched off into the distance, different mountains, and a road in the very rear of the image. I sat up there in high winds, high humidity getting soaked to the bone. Other photographers came and went, but I stayed, waiting for my perfect light... this is the best of the shots I got, I hope you enjoy.

No filters, sitting atop a wall in the one place my view wasn't obstructed by the trees bellow, and I decided to do a 5 shot exposure bracket here to try and get the best of the dynamic range.
My favorite shots can be purchased here:
L'amica Linda (che non è solo un' eccellente artista della fotografia, ma è anche ricca di conoscenza) con le sue parole sulla mia foto precedente ha suscitato vari ed interessanti commenti che mi hanno spinto a postare questa immagine del Ponte dei Draghi composta da tre sculture differenti, tutte rappresentanti il Drago sconfitto dal mitico argonauta Giasone, ma poi diventato il simbolo protettore della bella capitale della Slovenia

My friend Linda (who is not just an excellent photography artist, but also a wealth of knowledge) with her words on my previous photo has provoked various and interesting comments that have prompted me to post this image of the Dragon Bridge composed of three different sculptures, all representing the Dragon defeated by the mythical Argonaut Giasone, but then become the protective symbol of the beautiful capital of Slovenia

they roamed the earth both big and small
they traveled the land short and tall
but in all their stories lost in time
the cat is still the ghost of the of all rimes.
shot quickly...not the best quality, but it was a fun shot!
for those that ask: Is that real? or is it edited? ... this was taken while driving (i wasn't driving) and is a real cloud formation that appeared. It has only been cropped and some levels were changed to create more contrast...that's it.
nature did the rest! :)

Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence
The return to innocence
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Beautiful swans swimming in the Vltava River at sunset with view of the Prague city and the Charles Bridge.
Prague’s swans are photographed almost as much as some of the monuments, statues, cathedrals and buildings throughout the city.
This was shot at a slower speed (6 seconds).

Malin Head (Irish: Cionn Mhálanna) is located on the Inishowen Peninsula, County Donegal, Republic of Ireland and is the most northerly point of the island of Ireland. The northernmost tip is the headland named Banba's Crown located at latitude 55.38ºN. Malin Head gives its name to the Malin sea area. There is a weather station on the head, which is one of 22 such stations whose reports are broadcast as part of the BBC Shipping Forecast.
Ptolemy's Geography (2nd century AD) described a point called Βορειον (Boreion, "the northern") which probably referred to Malin Head.
Banba's Crown on Malin Head is the most northerly point of the Irish mainland. Banba was one of the mythical queens of Ireland. Banba's Crown is about 16 km (10 mi) north of the village of Malin. The island of Inishtrahull is further north, located approximately 10 km (6 mi) north east of Malin Head. Further north still is the most northerly landfall of Ireland, Tor Beg rock.
Tower at Banbas Crown that was used during war times.
Malin Head is home to small businesses such as pubs, restaurants, shops and a large call centre called Forward Emphasis International, which employs many of the local residents.

One of the grandest – and most photographed – landmarks in the United States, Monument Valley is a sprawling, sandy preserve that spans the border between Arizona and Utah, bathing the region in rich red hues. Dominated by crimson mesas and surreal sandstone towers – some as tall as 1,000 feet – the area is also known for dramatic, mesmerizing lighting, with the sun illuminating the towers and casting long shadows on the valley floor.
Located inside the Navajo Nation – one of the largest Native American tribes in the United States – Monument Valley is around four hours northeast of Flagstaff, near the Four Corners area.
Monument Valley provides perhaps the most enduring and definitive images of the American West. The isolated red mesas and buttes surrounded by empty, sandy desert have been filmed and photographed countless times over the years for movies, adverts and holiday brochures. Because of this, the area may seem quite familiar, even on a first visit, but it is soon evident that the natural colors really are as bright and deep as those in all the pictures. The valley is not a valley in the conventional sense, but rather a wide flat, sometimes desolate landscape, interrupted by the crumbling formations rising hundreds of feet into the air, the last remnants of the sandstone layers that once covered the entire region.
Thank you for your comments.

Starting a new project to build 20 mythical creatures. Will be in two parts so they can fit together with other mythical creatures to make a new one.
I keep meaning to return to my main storyline, but then I keep getting sidetracked playing with my avatars and finding new little nooks and crannies of cool sims.... Not sure if anyone cares one way or the other anyway, as long as the pics are cool, right? Anyway, this one was taken in Lost Unicorn.
