It's hard to imagine that three days ago, freezing rain was enveloping everything - bringing down trees and power lines - or that tonight we are under a heavy rainfall warning, which may even include thunderstorms.
Late this afternoon, at least, the sun was shining, the temperature climbed up to 16 Celsius, and the waiter had a rush order of beer on a patio at the Blue Mountain Ski Resort.
What a wonderful bridge to shoot, that you Bro (Richard Binns) for taking me to the High Level Bridge in Newcastle, what a structure. Great light (at night) on the bridge allowing shadows and illuminating the detail in the ironwork. I also love the cheeky starburst that crept in. Definately on my "go back to" list.

Križanke Church - In the 13th century, the Order of Teutonic Knights, settled at the upper end of the Novi trg square and built a church there. The only surviving item from the church is the famous relief of the Madonna of Krakovo from the church's main portal. The relief, created between 1265 and 1270, is now kept at the National Gallery of Slovenia.
The present Križanke Church was built between 1714 and 1715 by Domenico Rossi, one of the leading Venetian architects of the time. This indicates that the only church of the cross located on Slovenian territory was of great importance not only to the Knights of the Cross but also to the imperial court in Vienna, which donated interior furnishings. Side altars were painted by the court painters Martin Altomonte and Anton Schoonjans. The main altar painting, a work by Johann Michael Rottmayr which burnt down in the 19th century, was replaced by a painting by the Viennese painter Hans Canon in 1859.
Palermo’s Palazzo delle Poste e Telegrafi (1929–1934)
Your frontal composition is perfect for this building because it was conceived as a demonstration of strict order and modular clarity. Designed by Angiolo Mazzoni in the language of Italian Rationalism, the post-and-telegraph headquarters asserts itself on Via Roma with a deep, temple-like portico of ten colossal columns and a heavy entablature. Behind that disciplined façade is a reinforced-concrete frame clad in locally quarried Billiemi stone, laid out with rigorous symmetry around two side courtyards. The frontality of your shot heightens the building’s serial rhythm—the equal intercolumniation, the stacked horizontal bands, and the measured void of the portico—which are all about efficiency, legibility, and civic monumentality. Even small details were designed for coherence, from the custom metalwork to the calibrated lighting, and the entrance sequence pivots around a large elliptical staircase that dramatizes movement within an otherwise tightly ordered plan.

The interiors extend this programmatic clarity into a visionary register: the Conference Room carries five Futurist panels by Benedetta Cappa Marinetti—a cycle on land, sea, air, telegraph and radio communications—made specifically for this building, with additional works by Tato and Piero Bevilacqua, plus a bronze Diana cacciatrice by Corrado Vigni. Reading the architecture through your frontal view, you’re foregrounding exactly what the project celebrates: communication, modern services, and a state-of-the-art public machine expressed through proportion, repetition, and an almost didactic symmetry—without needing any extra scenography.

Templo Romano de Córdoba, Andalusia, Spain.
Its construction began during the reign of Emperor Claudius (41-54 AD) and ended some forty years later, during the reign of Emperor Domitian (81-96 CE). Presumably it was dedicated to the imperial cult. The temple underwent some changes in the 2nd century, reforms that coincide with the relocation of the colonial forum.
In the area had already been found architectural elements, such as drums of columns, capitals, etc. all in marble, so the area was known as los marmolejos. This area of Córdoba could become between the 1st century and the 2nd century, as the provincial forum of the Colonia Patricia, title that received the city during the Roman rule.
Proportion is a defining characteristic of the Roman Corinthian order: the "coherent integration of dimensions and ratios in accordance with the principles of symmetria" are noted by Mark Wilson Jones, who finds that the ratio of total column height to column-shaft height is in a 6:5 ratio, so that, secondarily, the full height of column with capital is often a multiple of 6 Roman feet while the column height itself is a multiple of 5. In its proportions, the Corinthian column is similar to the Ionic column, though it is more slender, and stands apart by its distinctive carved capital.
The abacus upon the capital has concave sides to conform to the outscrolling corners of the capital, and it may have a rosette at the center of each side. Corinthian columns were erected on the top level of the Roman Colosseum, holding up the least weight, and also having the slenderest ratio of thickness to height. Their height to width ratio is about 10:1.

Les choses etant ce qu'elles sont la galerie est momentanément supendue, jusqu'à nouvel avis. Merci
Things being what they are the gallery is temporarily suspended, until further notice. Thank you
The room that this is taking place in is meant to be the command center type room where Obi-Wan watches the hologram of Anakin slaughtering the Jedi within the temple.
This is also meant to unveil a group that Bahram (Brickcentral) and I put together. The group is just basically a group for Order 66 builds and you can just add any build that had to do with Order 66, but you will have to be accepted first depending on your building skill.
The group can be found here
Also please let me know what you think of the build.
Everything is good.
It's a shame that they now close at 10PM. The late-night Chinese grub-runs are over. In the end, it will not stop us from dining here earlier in the evening. The order.
