The most ornate of all the Hot Springs’s bathhouses, the Fordyce is primarily Renaissance Revival in style but with Spanish elements. Built for Samuel W. Fordyce and constructed under the supervision of his son, John R. Fordyce, it is three stories in height and built in two shades of light brown brick laid in a lozenge pattern. Detailing, including window frames, is in terra-cotta, and the building is set on a foundation of Batesville limestone. A rectangular marquee (unique among the bathhouses) extends across the central five of the building’s seven bays. Inside, the marble-clad lobby features a terra-cotta fountain with cherubs. Men’s facilities (like seen in the photograph above) are located on the north side of the building and women’s on the south, and both have stained glass windows with aquatic motifs. The men’s quarters also feature a statue of Hernando de Desoto (also seen above) with an Indian female kneeling at his feet, and a dazzling stained glass skylight above with figures floating in a sea of blue and green. The third floor housed a massive ceramic-tiled therapeutic tub, men’s and women’s parlors, and a wood-paneled gymnasium; here the most striking area is the assembly room with its arched vaults that frame equally curved stained glass skylights. The Fordyce was the crown jewel of the bathing industry that made Hot Springs famous, and its design and facilities reflected the high-water mark of elegance. The building closed in 1962, was restored in 1989, and reopened as the Hot Springs National Park’s Visitor Center that includes free tours of all the areas mentioned above.
Bathhouse Row (and all the subsequent bathhouses) were added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on November 13, 1974 and listed as a National Historic Landmark on May 28, 1987. All of the information above was found on the original documents submitted for NRHP listing consideration and can be viewed here:

Nieuwbouw van het Willem Arntsz Huis. Past totaal niet in zijn omgeving (het Museumkwartier), maar los van zijn omgeving gezien is het wel fotogeniek.
A new part of Utrecht's psychiatric hospital. It does not fit in at all in the historic city center, but taken out of context it is quite photogenic.

A [6,4] Hyperbolic Tiling created with the Fractal Science Kit fractal generator. See www.fractalsciencekit.com for details.
A Hyperbolic Tiling replicates a polygon over the hyperbolic plane represented by the Poincare disk in such a way as to form a hyperbolic tiling pattern. The Poincare disk is a model for hyperbolic geometry that maps the hyperbolic plane onto the unit disk. A [p,q] regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane maps a hyperbolic polygon with p sides over the hyperbolic plane such that q polygons meet at each polygon vertex.

Patterns of the storm - Maori Bay taken from very high up - the small looking rocks are actually very large rocks! Maori Bay and Muriwai are volcanic black sand beaches, so the foam being pulled back to the sea stands out clearly on the black sand.......
