The Boss with the Boss, plus the obligatory walking around with a coffee, the alfa male no doubt about it.
Helper Utah. see Geotags. This area is now famous for newly discover pictograms and petrogyphs from native americans living here previous to Fremont people. There are many artifacts left on the land from every civilization since. Native Americans have older non-running cars in the yard-environment as a good memory of the times that were before. i sometime wish I had my old XK-150, or the Mystang MachOne in my yard. I was much younger then, fun times were had. Shot with Nikkor 12-24mm. I think it's interesting because the forground does not REALLY look wide angle, but the sky certainly does!
En 1870 la Empresa del Ferrocarril Urbano de Santiago habilitó talleres y galpones para los tranvías, en el linde del río Mapocho, sector que ocupa actualmente la «Vega Chica», en calle Artesanos. El puente, antiguamente de madera con tensores de acero, servía para transportar los tranvías al taller. De ahí deriva su apodo «Puente de los Carros», aunque su nombre oficial era Puente del Ferrocarril Urbano.
Durante el gobierno del presidente José Manuel Balmaceda fue creado el Ministerio de Industria y Obras Públicas, al que se le asignó una parte destacada del presupuesto fiscal para impulsar la construcción de un canal en el río Mapocho. Esto permitió encauzar las aguas durante la época invernal, pero también una mejor conectividad entre la Chimba y Recoleta y el centro y sur de la ciudad, ya que también comenzaron a construirse puentes de acero que reemplazaron a los viejos puentes de madera.
Dentro de las obras de canalización mencionadas, se incluyó construir un nuevo puente metálico que reemplazaría al antiguo puente Los Carros que ocupaban los tranvías. Este nuevo puente ferroviario se haría al igual que los demás proyectados por Valentín Martínez y José Luis Coo, en un estilo europeo como los que se estaban construyendo en París, pero con sus contravientos un poco más altos en semi arco por la altura de los carros. Todos ellos se levantarían en los muros del canal, evitando la construcción de machones intermedios que complicaban el correr de las aguas. Para lograr la luz que exigía el tramo, se debían armar en una viga continua de celosía metálica, usando perfiles de hierro forjado dimensionados y remachados en caliente.
Tres de estos puentes se encargaron a la empresa chilena Lever, Murphy & Co., cuyos talleres se encontraban en Caleta Abarca, Viña del Mar. Dicha constructora tenía amplia experiencia en la fabricación de este tipo de puentes y fue la más destacada de la época. Por lo tanto, su contrata en 1889 se hace en condiciones similares a la de otras obras de arte, como los puentes sobre el Maule o el Laja, aun en pie y algunos nombrados como monumentos nacionales.
La obra se conoció durante el proyecto como el puente Veintiuno de Mayo, por la calle más cercana que lo enfrentaba desde Santiago, pero popularmente sobrevivió el tradicional nombre que se le daba al puente de palo anterior. Las faenas se ejecutaron durante 1889, donde Lever Murphy realizó una serie de trabajos. Primero se dimensionaban los perfiles de fierro de origen inglés en su maestranza. Una vez cortados y perforados se fletaban en bultos por tren al Mapocho. En el río se armaban estos fierros usando pernos y alambres, sobre un andamio en el futuro lecho, para luego remachar toda la estructura in situ. El trabajo así mencionado era bastante rápido y pudo realizarse en paralelo con los puentes Purísima y Loreto, también sobre el canal, y fabricados por la misma empresa.
Recordando a los constructores, el puente tiene cuatro placas soldadas y remachadas a fuego en cuatro pilares en ambas entradas.
En 1916 concluye la ampliación y construcción de los galpones de la Vega Central, convirtiéndose en un foco de intercambio comercial muy intenso entre ambos lados del río. En 1948 se destinan los ex galpones de la compañía de tranvías a los comerciantes minorista que fundaron allí La Vega Chica, otorgándole una ubicación privilegiada y convirtiéndose en la vía principal para acceder al mercado. La cantidad de gente que transitaba por la vía y el peligro que significaban los vehículos, sumado al poco uso que se le daba a los tranvías, llevó a la municipalidad a declarar el Puente los Carros como de exclusivo uso peatonal.[1]
Esta obra de ingeniería ha sido un factor determinante en el desarrollo histórico y comercial de Recoleta, siendo declarado monumento nacional en 1997, según el decreto 824.
A principios del siglo XXI, el Puente Los Carros comenzó a ser escenario de actividades culturales, con presentaciones de músicos y algunos grupos de teatro chilenos y extranjeros, tendencia que se ha mantenido con relativa regularidad hasta ahora. Por razones de seguridad para los transeúntes y para facilitar el combate a la delincuencia, además de evitar que se convierta en alojo de vagabundos, el puente debió ser cerrado con rejas durante las noches, que abren en la mañana temprano y cierran dos horas antes de la medianoche.

In 1870, the Santiago Urban Railway Company built workshops and sheds for the trams on the edge of the Mapocho River, the area currently occupied by the "Vega Chica" (small valley), on Artesanos Street. The bridge, formerly made of wood with steel tensioners, was used to transport the trams to the workshop. Hence its nickname "Car Bridge," although its official name was the Urban Railway Bridge.
During the administration of President José Manuel Balmaceda, the Ministry of Industry and Public Works was created, and a significant portion of the fiscal budget was allocated to promote the construction of a canal in the Mapocho River. This allowed for channeling waters during the winter, but also improved connectivity between La Chimba and Recoleta, and the center and south of the city, as steel bridges began to be built to replace the old wooden ones.
Among the aforementioned canalization works was the construction of a new steel bridge to replace the old Los Carros Bridge, which was used by trams. This new railway bridge would be built like the others designed by Valentín Martínez and José Luis Coo, in a European style similar to those being built in Paris, but with slightly higher semi-arched winder trusses to accommodate the height of the trams. All of them would be built on the canal walls, avoiding the construction of intermediate piers that would complicate the flow of water. To achieve the required span, they had to be assembled into a continuous metal lattice beam, using custom-sized and hot-riveted wrought iron profiles.
Three of these bridges were commissioned to the Chilean firm Lever, Murphy & Co., whose workshops were located in Caleta Abarca, Viña del Mar. This construction firm had extensive experience in the construction of this type of bridge and was the most prominent of its time. Therefore, its commissioning in 1889 was carried out under conditions similar to those of other works of art, such as the bridges over the Maule or Laja rivers, still standing and some designated as national monuments.
The project was known during the project as the Veintiuno de Mayo Bridge, named after the nearest street facing it from Santiago, but the traditional name given to the earlier wooden bridge survived. The work was carried out during 1889, with Lever Murphy performing a series of tasks. First, the English-made iron profiles were sized at his workshop. Once cut and drilled, they were shipped in bundles by train to the Mapocho River. These irons were assembled on the river using bolts and wires on scaffolding in the future riverbed, and the entire structure was then riveted in situ. The aforementioned work was quite quick and could be carried out in parallel with the Purísima and Loreto bridges, also over the canal and manufactured by the same company.
Remembering the builders, the bridge has four plates welded and fire-riveted to four pillars at both entrances.
In 1916, the expansion and construction of the Vega Central warehouses was completed, becoming a center of intense commercial exchange between both sides of the river. In 1948, the former tram company warehouses were used by the retailers who founded La Vega Chica there, giving it a privileged location and becoming the main route to access the market. The number of people traveling on the road and the danger posed by vehicles, coupled with the limited use of the trams, led the municipality to declare the Carros Bridge for pedestrian use only. [1]
This engineering feat has been a determining factor in the historical and commercial development of Recoleta, and was declared a national monument in 1997, pursuant to Decree 824.
At the beginning of the 21st century, the Los Carros Bridge began to host cultural activities, with performances by Chilean and international musicians and theater groups, a trend that has continued relatively regularly to this day. For safety reasons for pedestrians and to facilitate the fight against crime, as well as to prevent it from becoming a haven for homeless people, the bridge had to be closed with bars at night, opening early in the morning and closing two hours before midnight.

La 《Iglesia de San Miguel Arcángel (San Miguel de Bernuy, Segovia)》es un edificio de culto católico parroquial, ubicado en San Miguel de Bernuy (Segovia); fue dedicado al Arcángel San Miguel.
Su planta presenta la estructura típica del 'románico' de esta zona. Del estilo original, románico del siglo XIII, se conservan la cabecera y gran parte de la torre; el resto del edificio es barroco del siglo XVIII .
La nave, rectangular de dos tramos fue modificada en el siglo XVIII; la iglesia inicialmente debía disponer de galería porticada, que posiblemente fue incorporada a la nave central durante la reforma del siglo XVIII.
El ábside está formado por presbiterio con tramo recto, hemiciclo de cabecera plana y torre defensiva de poca altura con machones superpuesta, rematada por una cubierta elevada a cuatro aguas; posteriormente se incorporó la sacristía en la fachada sur.
En el ábside, destaca su interesante ventana aspillada con dos arcos de medio punto, el interior apoyado en columnas con interesantes capiteles y el exterior sobre jambas.También destaca la gran cantidad y variedad de marcas de cantero.
El acceso al templo se efectúa por el pórtico sur.
Interiormente el templo se cubre con bóveda de medio cañón apuntado, destacando el retablo barroco del altar mayor.
El arco triunfal, de medio punto en el lado de la nave, apoya en columnas de capiteles lisos; en el presbiterio, arcos de medio punto sobre columnas con capiteles de motivos vegetales dan paso a la sacristía y la escalera de subida a la torre.
En el segundo tramo de la nave de la epístola se halla la pila bautismal.
La barbacana que delimita el recinto sagrado incorpora actualmente dos capiteles reaprovechados: el izquierdo, muy deteriorado, no permite reconocer el motivo representado; el derecho muestra un personaje que lleva atadas dos parejas de animales con cabeza humana, sobre un fondo con motivos vegetales.
Su planta presenta la estructura típica del románico de esta zona.
La cabecera y la torre fueron realizadas en sillería de buena calidad y talla; en el resto del edificio, salvo el pórtico sur, se utilizó mampostería.

A few weeks back, while in town for the Oceana air show, a very good friend of mine surprised me, and asked if I would like to go out on the Washington for the day.
I could go on forever with what to say here, but I will let my images tell the rest of the story.
Here are some of my images from one of the most incredible experiences in my life.
You see a ton of photos online that say the jet is breaking the sound barrier. They are not. If the photo was taken at an air show, they do not break the sound barrier....they go .95 Mach. Aircraft are not permitted to break the sound barrier over land (with very few exceptions).
This is a photo of an F/A-18F Super Hornet going Mach 1.1. They were cleared to do a supersonic fly-by.
I've been photographing military jets for almost 30 years, and this was the first time I had the amazing experience of hearing the sonic boom. It was awesome!
Millville Wheels and Wings Airshow - May 9, 2015
The vapor cone tells us that the plane was approaching the speed of sound. It's going at least Mach 0.8 (~600 MPH) or faster.
.... well, not quite- but close enough

Called in at Blackbushe airfield just before sunset for a much needed coffee. As I was leaving I spotted the twilight reflections on its side.
It is actually a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach One which the lady has owned for seven years.

Brussels, Anderlecht.
Crossing over from Vijverpark (Parc des Etangs) to Pedepark
Parc des Etangs, situated in the Neerpede valley in Anderlecht, is a public park where you could easily spend a few hours. You can go for a stroll around the lake, have a picnic in the grass, play a game of petanque... or marvel at the graffiti bridge that displays the art of talented graffiti artists. Did you know that this part of the Brussels Ring is also know as the Hall of Fame of Anderlecht?
