Brand "Suppenkasper" ("Soup clown"), a soup made of chicken/tuna with fine pieces of meat. Timmy does not like the meat pieces, so I have to pour the soup through a sieve :-)))

Today was one of those lazy days when it comes to photography, I kept putting off picking up the camera and finally as the light was starting to sink I figured I'd better get moving.

 

What better for a day of procrastinating than a photo of a motivator... that and I was a little stumped on inspiration and coffee is always a good model!

 

Anyway hope everyone has had a good day, and a Happy Independence Day to all my American friends!

Le parc de Majolan a été réalisé sur une dizaine d’années, de 1870 à 1880, par le paysagiste Le Breton, la Jalle a dû être détournée afin de créer le lac, Le terrain et le château avaient été acquis par un riche banquier, Jean Gustave Piganeau, l’ambition qui motiva la création de ce parc était de refléter la magnificence de son patrimoine et de son train de vie, et ce en imitant ce qui s’était fait à Paris.

Le parc est une illustration grandeur nature du savoir-faire des architectes, ingénieurs, artisans et artistes de la fin du XIXe siècle. Parti du néant, une zone marécageuse de 20 hectares, 150 000 m3 de terre furent dégagés à la pelle afin de créer un lac de 4 hectares à partir de la Jalle traversant le lieu et de donner forme aux différents endroits du parc. Les grottes artificielles (réalisées à la chaux, comme les ruines) et les canyons, sont des merveilles d’ingéniosité hydraulique avec leurs fontaines et leurs geysers d’eau, et de maîtrise de l’art des rocailleurs.

Les nombreux ponts répondent chacun à une architecture et à une technique : en lianes, de style gothique, en faux bois (une sorte de béton ornementé), en fer forgé...

Propriété de la commune depuis 1975, il est ouvert au public depuis 1984. Le parc est l'un des lieux de promenade prisés des habitants de l'agglomération bordelaise.

Majolan Park

It was made over a decade, from 1870 to 1880, by the landscaper Le Breton, the Jalle had to be diverted to create the lake, The land and the castle had been acquired by a wealthy banker, Jean Gustave Piganeau , the ambition that motivated the creation of this park was to reflect the magnificence of its heritage and its lifestyle, and this imitating what had been done in Paris.

The park is a life-size illustration of the know-how of architects, engineers, craftsmen and artists of the late nineteenth century. From the nothingness, a swampy area of ​​20 hectares, 150 000 m3 of land were shoveled to create a lake of 4 hectares from the Jalle crossing the place and give shape to the various areas of the park. The artificial caves (made with lime, like the ruins) and the canyons, are marvels of hydraulic ingenuity with their fountains and their geysers of water, and control of the rock art.

The many bridges each respond to an architecture and a technique: in creepers, Gothic style, faux wood (a kind of ornamented concrete), wrought iron ...

Owned by the town since 1975, it has been open to the public since 1984. The park is one of the most popular places to go for a walk in the Bordeaux area.

China, Shanghai, Zhujiajiao, tour boats on stand-by on a waterway in the "Water Town" on the outskirts of Shanghai in the Qingpu District is not only well-known throughout China. With a history of more than 1,700 years, the little fan-shaped town being regarded as Shanghai's Venice established about 1,700 years ago, archaeological findings dating back 5.000 years.

 

The historical centre of Zhujiajiao, built on a peninsula enclosed by the rivers Dianpu He & the Cao He; these are rivers flowing from west to east, which been converted into transport channels over the centuries, "Cao He" means "river for the water transport of grain".

Middle-class people built two- to three-story "row houses" along these canals from around the 16th century, on the other side of which roads for carts ran. On the ground floor of these whitewashed & grey-tiled houses, there was usually a shop or workshop open to the street, while a veranda facing the canal, often with stone steps to the water.

 

Zhujiajiao, literally meaning "Village of the Zhu Family", since "Zhu Yuanzhang", the founder of the subsequent Ming dynasty, also came from the Zhu clan, the name was tabooed & the place in Zhujiege, "Pearl Market", or Zhuxi, "Pearls Brook", renamed, the same pronunciation, but different characters & different meanings.

Italy, Venice, … even so the gondolier sings loudly & full-breasted~ "♪ ’O Sole Mio ♫"~, an Italian classic written in 1898,

…but the sun ignores him this morning at the Ponte Rialto…

 

Modern gondolas are up to 11 mtr long, 1.6 mtr wide & a weight of about 350 kg, made of 280 hand-made pieces using eight types of wood. It takes about 200 hours to manufacture a gondola; at a cost of roughly 30,000 €.

The oar-paddle, which is several meters long, lies in a fork, forcola, which is inserted into a rectangular opening in the hull on the starboard side. To compensate for unilateral propulsion, the gondola body is built asymmetrically along the central axis; the left side is curved more than the right starboard side, so that its contour on the starboard side is about 0.25 m shorter than on the port side.

The oar-paddle is held in an o complicated shaped fork, known as a Fórcola, allowing several positions of the oar for slow forward rowing, powerful forward rowing, turning, slowing down, rowing backwards stopping, shaped individually for each gondoliers style. The ornament iron, called the "fero da prorà" or "dolfin", on the front of the boat is made from brass, stainless steel, or aluminium. It serves as decoration; every detail of the gondola has its own symbolism & needed to balance the weight of the gondolier at the stern, has an "S" shape symbolic of the twists in the Canal Grande. Under the main blade, there is a kind of comb with six teeth or prongs pointing forward standing for the six districts of Venice. A kind of tooth juts out backwards toward the centre of the gondola symbolises the island of Giudecca, the curved top signifies the Doge's cap.

 

Originally, the designs were not uniform & changed over the centuries. Originally, there were gondolas in all possible colours. The Venetian noble & patrician houses at the time tried to outdo each other in the magnificent equipment of the boats.

In order to put an end to this unbridled pomposity, the Senate of Venice in 1562 passed the expense law. Supported by the church, this law prescribed uniform black equipment for all gondolas; there were exceptions for foreign envoys & for festivals.

China, Harbin, "Ice & Snow Festival", …last touch-ups by the artists on their snow sculptures, part of the over 500 sculptures created by artists from all over the world.

 

Harbin with population almost 4.5 million, is heralded as the Ice City for its well-known unbelievably impressive ice & snow recreations during the yearly international “Ice & Snow Festival” from the end of December until beginning of March. Harbin is also well known besides his important historic & economic past & present for China, for its historical Russian heritage, this cultural influence is still notable till today.

 

Everywhere in the City you will find Ice Carvings of all Sizes, besides there are several Expositions in different Park. The three major Parks are the Snow Sculptures at the Park on Sun Island, they are more artistic, the Ice Carvings at the Zhao Lin Park - Harbin Ice & Snow World are gigantic & illuminated at Night, in the Centre of the City is the Disneyland Ice Festival.

 

Ice-lanterns can date back to ancient times. It was said that some fishermen made rough & simple ice-lanterns made of ice just for lighting. With the time passed, ice-lanterns embodied their cultural features & artistic fascination gradually of making of ice-lanterns, ice sculptures started in the 1960s.

 

Due to the Siberian high & Harbin in the Heilongjiang Province location above 45 degrees north latitude, the city is known for having the most bitterly cold winters among major Chinese cities. Winter Temperatures can drop to below -35° C., when I visited Harbin beginning of January the Temperature varied between -20°C & -26°C below, but with dry air.

To reach this place you have to climb bare foot 700 steps. This old lady was not able to stand straight but she climbed these many cumbersome steps so that she can pray in this famous Jain holy place.

China, Beijing,…autumn sunset over the Forbidden City, the “Zǐjinchéng”, in China now it is usually called Gùgōng, is the centre of Beijing. The Palace was for 276 years, 1368 –1644 the Chinese imperial palace from the Ming Dynasty & until the end of the Qing Dynasty, established in 1636 & ruling China from 1644 to 1912.

Built from 1406 to 1420, was it the home to twenty-four Chinese emperors, from the Ming dynasty & 1420 until the end of the Qing dynasty before the abdication of Puyi in 1912. The Palace served as the home of emperors, their family circle, as well as the ceremonial & political centre of Chinese government for over 500 years.

 

The 980 buildings complex with officially 9.999 rooms, as a room is considered the space between four pillars. The palace represents traditional Chinese impressive architecture, it influenced cultural & architectural developments in East Asia.

The whole complex was built without a nail or a screw only with dowels & interlacing, the general renovation which started in 2002 is done with same technics & craftsmanship as in past hundreds of years & will need a couple of more years, by the year 2020, 85% by 2020 to be finalized & open to the public. During the imperial centuries it was forbidden to build any house higher than the Palace buildings, hence during thunderstorms it was the main object in Beijing to be hit by lightning

 

After the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949, some damage was done to the Forbidden City as the country was flounced up in revolutionary fanaticism during the Cultural Revolution. However, further destruction was prevented when Ordered by Mao Zedong, the Premier Zhou Enlai, sent an army battalion to guard the Forbidden City to prevent further devastation.

Zhou Enlai was the first Premier of the People's Republic of China, Mao Zedong was the Chairman, founding father & intellectual leader of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.

 

The Imperial Palace, built in only 14 years from 1406 to 1420, is a rectangle covering 720,000m2 with 961 mtr from north to south & 753 mtr from east to west. Crossing the Forbidden City through to the Tiananmen Gate, which is decorated with a portrait of Mao Zedong, the forecourt & the Meridian Gate to the north gate on Jingshan Hill it is a length of slightly more than 1,5 km. The Forbidden City is enclosed by a 7,9 mtr high & 6 mtr wide defensive wall, which has a circumference of 3,430km, surrounded by a 52 mtr wide ditch.

 

The Forbidden City is documented as one of the most important five palaces in the world, with an area of 72ha it is the largest & ancient palatial structure in the world

The palace is 960 mtr long & 750 mtr wide, has formally 9,999 rooms, a room being the space between four pillars. The Forbidden City is enclosed by an almost 8 mtr-high defensive wall, which has a circumference of 3,430km.

 

Since 1925, the Forbidden City has been under the charge of the Palace Museum, whose extensive collection of artwork & artefacts were built upon the imperial collections of the Ming & Qing dynasties.

 

Approximately 15 million tourists visit the palace every year.

 

About 25% of the museum's former collection is since the Chinese Civil War located in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, both museums descend from the same institution.

China, Beijing, Food, Crustaceans, Sand Crab

Sand Crabs have sweet subtle flavour & generally have softer meat than Blue Swimmer Crabs.

They can be stored on Ice or refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but they test best when consumed immediately, if boiled, steamed, grilled or BBQ.

The Sand Crabs habitat is found in sandy silty areas including along surf beaches.

The all year around seasonal Sand Crabs have sharp claws & should be handled using gloves or pliers & then tied with a strip of fabric.

They minimum legal length is 10 cm measured across the carapace from side to side.

The daily catch p/person is limited to 20 units, combined with Blue Swimmer Crabs.

Spain, Barcelona, Restaurant "Los Caracoles", Barrio Gòtico

The Bar in front of the Kitchen & Restaurant , the different dining rooms are located behind the Kitchen, in the old days; customers reached the dining room from the bar by crossing the kitchen.

1835 the restaurant was founded by Antonio Borafull at the Gothic District near las Ramblas & is managed now in fifth generation.

During my visits to Barcelona in the last three decades, I always enjoyed the traditional Spanish dishes served. However, like Alfredos in Rom & other well-known Family Restaurants, ones they become to famous, it turns in to a tourist-floodgate; ambience & food is not the same anymore.

One of the key motivators of my work is preservation; The desire to create something of permanence in my life as a means of validation. Looking at history, it's clear that this notion of art as legacy is nothing new. Rulers across the centuries were compelled to create enduring monuments and commission works of art in order to immortalize themselves. Some succeeded, but most did not. As history continually reveals, there is little we can do to preserve ourselves. Our petty grasps at eternal life are no match for time. The digital mediums in which we now work will become obsolete, our records will decay, and our very existence will soon be subject to extinction. It's a scary fact that all we can really cling to is the moment at hand.

 

I collaborated on this piece with Chris. He had the idea to do a photo of me as a mummy and I mentioned the concept of self-preservation and we both went to work. He spent over two hours wrapping me, plus 3 trips back and forth to the store to buy more ace bandages because we kept running out. He also captured me at this very low angle, which I would not have been able to get on my own. I'm so lucky to have a nerdy artist friend who likes to do this with me in his spare time :)
