Chicago is world-famous for its many unique architectural styles. Most of the buildings in the downtown area were destroyed by the Great Chicago Fire in 1871. So the current buildings are noted more for their originality than their antiquity, and they reflect the city's history and multicultural heritage. The Chicago Riverwalk contains bars, cafes and restaurants; small parks; boat and kayak rentals; a Vietnam War memorial; and other amenities.

Irises against the background of yellow loosestrife.

Irises are one of the most popular ornamental herbaceous perennials. They have been known in culture for over 4,000 years, and the first written mention of irises as an ornamental plant dates back to 1576. Today, the range of irises is so extensive that it is sometimes difficult to navigate and create a suitable set of varieties for yourself.

As ornamental plants, irises have been used since ancient times. Translated from Greek, "iris" means "rainbow". People have long appreciated their beauty. However, in recent years there has been a surge of interest in this culture. This is largely due to the emergence of new varieties, distinguished by originality and a special new bewitching beauty.

 

Spotted loosestrife, or lysimachia, is an excellent unpretentious plant. This is a fairly large winter-hardy perennial that has a high growth rate. Such a flower from the primrose family is well suited for decorating a personal plot and will be stable in a flower bed in an urban environment.

Staircase in the Technical University of Regensburg. The university also has an "Institute of Scalology", which is the science of the originalities and the appeal of stairs, or in brief, "knowledge of the staircase". This is the only one worldwide - with regard to my photographic obsession quite funny, isn't it? 😄

 

La Malga Fane a Valles è unica nel suo genere in Alto Adige. Questo idilliaco villaggio alpino si trova nella Val di Valles ed è immerso in un suggestivo paesaggio naturale montano. L’agglomerato di baite, fienili, una piccola chiesa e tre rifugi - un totale di ca. 30 edifici - affascina anche grazie all’originalità delle strutture.

 

Costruita nel Medioevo come rifugio per i malati di peste e colera, oggi la malga è una delle attrazioni principali della zona, sia d’inverno che d’estate. È punto di partenza per diverse escursioni in alta montagna, come per esempio sul Picco Croce (3.134 m s.l.m.), la vetta più alta nei dintorni. La Malga Fane offre anche qualche punto di ristoro dove potete concedervi una bella merenda, mentre i bambini giocano all’aperto.

The Malga Fane in Valles is unique in South Tyrol. This idyllic Alpine village is located in the Val di Valles and is immersed in a suggestive natural mountain landscape. The cluster of huts, barns, a small church and three shelters - a total of approx. 30 buildings - it also fascinates thanks to the originality of the structures.

 

Built in the Middle Ages as a refuge for plague and cholera patients, today the malga is one of the main attractions of the area, both in winter and in summer. It is the starting point for various high mountain excursions, such as the Picco Croce (3.134 m s.l.m.), the highest peak in the surrounding area. The Malga Fane also offers some refreshment points where you can enjoy a nice snack, while the children play outdoors.

Standing in the centre of its own enclosure and bordered by a moat, the massed rectangular dwelling, covered with a pavilion roof, the castle of Martainville was built in 1485. The great originality lies in its absolutely symmetrical plan. The castle has been listed as a historic monument since 1889. Since 1961 it has housed the Museum of Norman Traditions and Arts.

Halles de Craon, 1850 (inscrites MH, 1984)

En 1902, arguant des dangers d'incendie que représente le bâtiment, une pétition est signée par trente-deux personnes pour la destruction des halles. Une seconde pétition, pour la conservation, réunit quarante-six signatures. La municipalité, reconnaissant le rôle commercial et fiscal des halles, refuse la destruction. Une seconde pétition pour la destruction est relancée en 1924, mais la municipalité s'y refuse, démontrant le rôle des halles dans l'accueil de manifestation les jours de pluie, mais aussi que le bâtiment « donne au quartier un cachet particulier dont les étrangers ne sont pas sans remarquer l’originalité ». L'édifice est inscrit au titre des monuments historiques en 1984 et fait l'objet d'une campagne de restauration en 2010-2011.

In 1902, arguing about the fire hazards represented by the building, a petition was signed by thirty-two people for the destruction of the halls. A second petition for conservation had 46 signatures. The municipality, recognizing the commercial and fiscal role of the market halls, refused destruction. A second petition for destruction was revived in 1924, but the municipality refused, demonstrating the role of the market halls in hosting demonstrations on rainy days, but also that the building “gives the neighbourhood a special character whose originality is not unnoticed by foreigners”. The building was listed as a historic monument in 1984 and underwent a restoration campaign in 2010-2011.

La Sittelle torchepot ( Sitta europaea ) est un oiseau dit cavernicole en ce sens qu'il niche dans un trou d'arbre, plus rarement dans une cavité de mur ou de rocher. Il occupe souvent un nid vacant de pic. Il ne creuse que très rarement sa propre cavité. C'est en squattant les logis abandonnés d'oiseaux plus grands que la Sittelle torchepot fait preuve d'une autre originalité. En effet le trou de vol étant trop grand pour ses besoins, elle s'emploie à le rétrécir afin qu'il n'atteigne que 29-3l mm, ce qui en interdit l'entrée à d'autres candidats, comme l'étourneau par exemple.

 

C'est le travail de la femelle. Au moyen de boulettes de terre ou d'argile imprégnées de salive, elle maçonne soigneusement un chambranle aux dimensions voulues. C'est cette aptitude qui lui a valu le qualificatif de torchepot (torchis).

The Eurasian Nuthatch (Sitta europaea) is a so-called cavernicolous bird in that it nests in a tree hole, more rarely in a wall or rock cavity. It often occupies a vacant peak nest. It rarely digs its own cavity. It is by squatting abandoned houses of larger birds that the Nuthatch torchepot is showing another originality. Indeed the flight hole being too big for its needs, it works to shrink it so that it reaches only 29-3l mm, which prohibits entry to other candidates, such as the starling for example.

 

It's the work of the female. By means of saliva-impregnated clay or clay balls, she carefully masonates a jamb to the desired dimensions. It is this ability that earned him the name of torchpot (mud).

A small advertising 2CV found in a drawer ... it suffered a bit but I like its originality ... I hope it will make you smile!

A very happy weekend to all!

“Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to."

Grundtvig's Church (Danish: Grundtvigs Kirke) is located in the Bispebjerg district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It is a rare example of expressionist church architecture. Due to its originality, it is one of the best known churches in the city.

El Portal de las Monjas es una antigua puerta de muralla de Mirambel adosada al convento de las Agustinas.

Posee un torreón anejo de forma cilíndrica en cuya parte inferior está alojada la sacristía de la iglesia del convento.

El portal presenta un arco de medio punto hacia el exterior y apuntado en el interior. En su parte superior, y por la cara intramuros, posee tres pisos de galería cerrada con celosías de barro y yeso que le dan un aspecto característico siendo un importante elemento por su originalidad y su importancia como hito y fondo de perspectiva. Bajo las celosías y sobre el arco queda cobijada una capilla abierta de vano adintelado con la advocación de Santo Tomás. En esta foto ampliada de la parte superior con las celosías y sus particulares dibujos. Por aquí podían mirar las monjas sin ser vistas.

 

The Portal de las Monjas is an old gate in the Mirambel wall attached to the Agustinas convent.

It has an attached cylindrical tower in the lower part of which is housed the sacristy of the convent church.

The portal presents a semicircular arch towards the outside and pointed inside. In its upper part, and on the intramural face, it has three floors of a closed gallery with clay and plaster lattices that give it a characteristic appearance, being an important element due to its originality and its importance as a landmark and perspective background. Under the lattices and over the arch there is sheltered an open chapel with a lintelled bay with the dedication of Santo Tomás. In this enlarged photo of the upper part with the lattices and their particular drawings. The nuns could look around here without being seen.

A.W. Cardinal was for most of the performance hidden in the dark. He gave the limelight to his partner Jass. Even his name A.W. is a bit of mystery. Southside Shuffle blues festival reserved the best for the last; at least it was for me the 'Blue Moon Marquee'. Normally it's a duo Jasmine Colette and A.W. Cardinal, but they added an excellent keyboard player. Both write songs, both have great voices and are excellent musicians. Rather then being just another blues band their music had depth and originality. The Albertans travel the world now for several years. Cardinal raspy voice is very distinctive. Playing together for 10 years, there is nothing stale in their performance. Alexander Wesley and Jasmine are now on my radar.

“You strive to please others, to fit in, and feel accepted. In spite of that, you still don’t feel accepted, and not because others don’t accept you, but because you haven’t accepted yourself as you are.” ― Dragos Bratasanu, The Pursuit of Dreams

 

Tune: Linkin Park - Somewhere I Belong.

 

We often seek approval of someone else, a group of people, society etc because we want to be accepted in that all exclusive circle, feel like belonging somewhere. We try to mold ourselves in order to fit the necessary description, the demands of the masses, losing ourselves and our originality in the process while trying to appease. But it's often forgetten that - True acceptance doesn’t require you to fit in or change who you are. It doesn’t have to be sought; it’s given to you.

Sur le plan architectural, l'édifice est remarquable aussi bien par ses proportions harmonieuses, liées à l'unité de sa conception, que par la qualité de ses tympans, de ses sculptures et de ses vitraux. Elle se distingue notamment des autres grandes cathédrales de l'époque par une recherche toute nouvelle d'un espace intérieur unifié. Cas exceptionnel en France pour une cathédrale gothique, elle ne possède pas de transept.

La cathédrale Saint-Étienne de Bourges est une cathédrale gothique construite entre la fin du XIIe et la fin du XIIIe siècle.

 

Architecturally, the building is remarkable both for its harmonious proportions, linked to the unity of its design, and for the quality of its tympanums, sculptures and stained glass windows. It differs in particular from the other great cathedrals of the time by a completely new search for a unified interior space. Exceptional case in France for a Gothic cathedral, it does not have a transept.

The Saint-Étienne de Bourges cathedral is a Gothic cathedral built between the end of the 12th and the end of the 13th century.

The cathedral marks its originality by the size of the western facade with its five portals. They are consecrated, in order and from left to right, to: Guillaume de Bourges, the Virgin Mary, the Last Judgment (central portal), to the martyr Étienne and to Ursin de Bourges. The lack of a transept probably led to a relatively simple design of the side portals.

See you in 1449, the huts of Breuil welcome you - Dordogne - New Aquitaine - France - Europe

 

Selon le site Internet qui leur est consacré (cf. Liens externes), « Au Moyen Âge, les cabanes du Breuil étaient habitées par les Bénédictins de Sarlat ». La preuve en serait un acte de vente de « 1449, date de la plus vieille trace écrite affirmant leur existence ». Cependant ce document n'a jamais été publié et ses coordonnées comme sa teneur sont tenues sous le boisseau. De plus, Calpalmas n'est pas Le Breuil. Dans son livre, Les cabanes en pierre sèche du Périgord, paru en 2002 (cf. Bibliographie), François Poujardieu écrit que « Le Breuil était un des domaines des Bénédictins du Chapitre de l'Évêché de Sarlat, mais il est écrit nulle part qu'existaient les cabanes que nous voyons aujourd'hui ». Il ajoute : « La propriétaire affirmait, il y a vingt ans, que les cabanes auraient été construites ou entièrement remaniées par son grand-père, au début du xxe siècle ».

 

Toujours selon le site Internet, des artisans ruraux (un forgeron, un bourrelier et un tisserand) auraient loué certaines des cabanes pour y exercer leur activité mais aucun élément textuel n'est apporté qui corroborerait la chose. Dans la cabane qui aurait servi au forgeron, trône un gros soufflet devant un renfoncement de maçonnerie servant d'âtre. Une carte postale des années 1970 montre cette même cabane servant de bergerie : une dizaine de brebis en sort, sous la houlette des agriculteurs de l'époque.

 

Les cabanes ont fait l'objet, à diverses reprises (au tournant des années 1970 puis à celui des années 1990), d'importantes restaurations. Certaines modifications ont été apportées aux faîtages : les toitures indépendantes des cabanes du groupe 2 (cf, infra, Disposition des bâtiments) ont été reliées entre elles sur deux tiers de leur hauteur pour faire pendant à la ligne de faîtage ondulée du groupe 1 (cf, infra, Disposition des bâtiments); de même, le faîtage de la cabane contre le pignon du fournil, est passé d'une ligne en courbe et contrecourbe à une ligne horizontale bien droite, comme celle du faîtage du fourni.

 

C'est à la suite de la proposition d'un visiteur, frappé par la beauté et l'originalité de l'ensemble des cabanes, que celles-ci ont fait l'objet d'une mesure de protection. D'abord protégées au titre des sites à partir de 1968, elles devaient être classées monuments historiques le 10 mai 1995 (ainsi que les façades et toitures en lauses de la maison d'habitation et de son fournil), la grange étant pour sa part déjà inscrite depuis 1991.

 

Outre les cartes postales, le cinéma et la télévision ont popularisé les lieux : ils auraient en effet servi de décor (avant 1990) aux films La Belle au bois dormant, Jacquou le Croquant (de Stellio Lorenzi), D'Artagnan et Les Misérables (de Robert Hossein).

Depuis 1977, Marie et Claude, mes parents sont devenus « les bras forts » de ce petit coin de pierres. Ils en ont assuré la continuité intergénérationnelle.

 

Depuis les années 90, à mon tour, je me suis lancé dans cette aventure et ma passion pour ce lieu m’a poussé à relever de nouveaux défis afin de conserver ce patrimoine. (Recherches de technique de constructions en pierres sèche : encorbellements et voûtes).

 

Aujourd’hui, avec Carine, mon épouse et nos enfants Samuel et Mathias, nous multiplions nos efforts pour l’entretien et la rénovation de cabanes. Restaurations progressives de murs, Atelier de construction (2002), Exposition hommage à mes grands-parents (2014), Espace « Ailleurs dans le monde » (2019) … et bien d’autres choses !

 

En plus de cela, nous avons à cœur de continuer à travailler nos terres en mettant en œuvres la culture naturelle !

According to the website devoted to them (cf. External links), “In the Middle Ages, the Breuil huts were inhabited by the Benedictines of Sarlat”. The proof would be a deed of sale of "1449, date of the oldest written record affirming their existence". However, this document was never published and its coordinates as its content are kept under wraps. Moreover, Calpalmas is not Le Breuil. In his book, The dry stone huts of Périgord, published in 2002 (cf. Bibliography), François Poujardieu writes that "Le Breuil was one of the domains of the Benedictines of the Chapter of the Bishopric of Sarlat, but it is written nowhere that existed the huts that we see today”. He adds: "The owner claimed twenty years ago that the cabins were built or completely remodeled by her grandfather at the beginning of the 20th century."

 

Still according to the website, rural craftsmen (a blacksmith, a saddler and a weaver) would have rented some of the huts to exercise their activity there but no textual element is provided which would corroborate the thing. In the hut that would have been used by the blacksmith, there is a large bellows in front of a masonry recess serving as a hearth. A postcard from the 1970s shows this same hut serving as a sheepfold: a dozen sheep come out of it, under the leadership of the farmers of the time.

 

The cabins have been extensively restored on various occasions (at the turn of the 1970s and then at the turn of the 1990s). Some modifications have been made to the ridges: the independent roofs of the huts in group 2 (see below, Layout of the buildings) have been connected to each other over two thirds of their height to match the undulating ridge line of group 1 (see , infra, Layout of buildings); similarly, the ridge of the cabin against the gable of the bakery has changed from a curved and counter-curved line to a very straight horizontal line, like that of the ridge of the bakery.

 

It was following the proposal of a visitor, struck by the beauty and originality of all the huts, that they were the subject of a protective measure. First protected as sites from 1968, they were to be classified as historic monuments on May 10, 1995 (as well as the facades and slate roofs of the dwelling house and its bakery), the barn being for its part already registered since 1991.

 

In addition to postcards, cinema and television have popularized the place: they would indeed have served as a setting (before 1990) for the films Sleeping Beauty, Jacquou le Croquant (by Stellio Lorenzi), D'Artagnan and Les Misérables ( by Robert Hossein).

Since 1977, Marie and Claude, my parents, have become "the strong arms" of this little corner of stones. They ensured its intergenerational continuity.

 

Since the 90s, I in turn embarked on this adventure and my passion for this place pushed me to take up new challenges in order to preserve this heritage. (Research on dry stone construction techniques: corbels and vaults).

 

Today, with Carine, my wife and our children Samuel and Mathias, we are increasing our efforts for the maintenance and renovation of cabins. Progressive restorations of walls, Construction workshop (2002), Exhibition tribute to my grandparents (2014), Espace “Ailleurs dans le monde” (2019) … and many other things!

 

In addition to this, we are committed to continuing to work our land by implementing natural cultivation!

Scene on the embankment of the Volga River in the city of Uglich. Russia.

Uglich is a beautiful cozy Russian town of the Yaroslavl region, formed on the Volga River and included in the Golden Ring of Russia. It is located exactly in the place where a sharp bend is formed. The city has a complicated, rich history. Here is a calm, peaceful life. An important point of the Golden Ring annually attracts tourists from all regions. The originality and color of the city is difficult to convey in words. The popular tourist center is famous for its magnificent monuments of Russian architecture. Uglich watch factory “Star”, cheese-making enterprises are known throughout the country.

I am well aware of the fact that this is a very classical shot of Tower Bridge and I apologize for the lack of originality this time.

 

I really love motion photography and I was in the need of some absolutely thrilling time, shooting under the bridge, on that narrow traffic divider so familiar to most of London's photographers.

 

The light trails are created by the passage of the red buses. If you are looking for a re-energizing photography section, by shooting from this location you will have a clear feel of London's powerful vibrancy, and you will leave the bridge feeling like quick silver ;-)

 

I would like to thank you all for your much appreciated visits, comments and faves. Your support means a lot to me. I wish you all a wonderful Thursday and weekend ahead :-)

Le travail de Karen Assayag comprend un assemblage de créations produites par des femmes elles-mêmes.

 

Des photographies prises à l’appareil jetable qui montrent ce qu’elles souhaitent partager de leur quotidien hors du centre de jour et de l’autre, des portraits individuels lors de séances à deux, dans un temps privilégié.

 

C’est ainsi que, après impression, ces photographies sont commentées et peintes dans un esprit collectif : les regards se croisent, se confrontent, mais surtout, cette collaboration instaure un dialogue bienveillant entre les unes et les autres.

 

Une autre manière de voir les choses par un artiste doué et qui fait preuve d’originalité ! 😉

  

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

 

Karen Assayag's work includes an assemblage of creations produced by women themselves.

 

Photographs taken with a disposable camera that show what they want to share about their daily life outside the day center and on the other, individual portraits during sessions for two, in a privileged time.

 

This is how, after printing, these photographs are commented on and painted in a collective spirit: eyes meet, confront each other, but above all, this collaboration establishes a benevolent dialogue between each other.

 

Another way of seeing things by a gifted artist who demonstrates originality ! 😉

 

Easy to copy, but they lack originality and creativity. I keep looking for them in google before I actually travel, the lazy way.

Moar dandy-lion. MOAR I say. No presets were used to make this; well, technically, I used raceytayed, but then? Layer after layer after layer in PS. God I love shooting in RAW.

 

Blow

It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

She is free, radical, independent

Her style is her own,

It's personal, existential

 

Her only fear is convention, her only weakness, shoes. The bump of her nose adds character, the scar on her shoulder adds strength, the curl in her hair adds attitude. There is no such thing as imperfection, just originality.

 

Unmovable, unshakeable, unstoppable, she is someone both inspired and inspiring, she embraces her spirituality aspires to her dreams, levies through her passions. She is a world changer, she is bohemian, She is a boho girl.
