Mitre street was the first paved street in the City. You'll find most of the city's shops there, including chocolate and handicraft stores, bars, restaurants, bookstores, music houses, galleries, travel agencies and much more. If you're walking down "The Mitre" then you are in the very heart of Bariloche.
The Civic Center of San Carlos de Bariloche opened in March 17, 1940. It was built by architect Ernesto de Estrada with cypress and larch wood, and tufa extracted from Mount Carbón.
Its architecture has European and North American influences, reflecting the surrounding mountains and woods. With its charming stone walls, wooden doors and Lake Nahuel Huapi in the background, it’s easy to understand why the Civic Center is the place to be for both tourists and locals. Large cultural and social events are held at its square.

I write this with a heavy heart. The last couple of years have found me with a progressively debilitating spinal column and joint problems. If it were just me, I would never ask, but I have 2 young daughters that look to me for support, so I have to swallow my pride...
If you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you.

Walking around the California Aqueduct. At this point, this side is paved, and the other side is a dirt trail.
Peyto Lake, 28 miles north of Lake Louise, walking a paved trail through the woods to see the lake, which gets its bright turquoise hue from glacial particles suspended in water. There was observation platform which was built last year. However, following a narrow trail up to another point, there was a big stone you could step on, the view was better than the wooden observation platform. There was a wedding going on here, the photographer took couple’s photo on the stone…. It was a cloudy, raining, sunshine alternative day on that morning.
Last year, Peyto Lake was closed due to construction (building the observation platform), we hiked from farther north at Mistaya Canyon, a dirt trail reaches the narrow canyon where the river flow from Peyto Lake dips and gnarls through fissures of rock that often hide its depths. The view from bottom was totally different… I did not post any photos from last year… 😉

Taken on top of Mt. Bierstadt at 14,065 feet. Off to the left hand side is Mt. Evans which has one of the highest paved roads to the top. This picture was taken right as a storm was moving in.
The Passo Fedaia is a mountain pass traversed by a paved road in the Dolomiti Range in Northern Italy. It lies at the northern base of the Marmolada, the highest peak in the region and the Dolomiti. It is known for its beauty, for Lago Fedaia, and for its use in the Giro d'Italia. It was also used as a location for the film Italian Job.It is the site of the Passo Fedaia and Marmolada Gletscher ski areas. -
Der Dolomitenpass Passo Fedaia (fassanisch-ladinisch Jouf de Fedaa; 2057 m s.l.m.) stellt die Verbindung zwischen Canazei im Fassatal (Provinz Trentino, Region Trentino-Südtirol) und Malga Ciapela (Provinz Belluno, Region Venetien) am Fuße der Marmolata her. Die zumeist 5–7 Meter breite Passstraße führt aus dem Fassatal über Alba und Penia in einigen Kehren und Galerien in die Senke zwischen Padonkamm im Norden und Marmolatagletscher im Süden.
In etwa auf Passhöhe liegt der Stausee Lago Fedaia. Eine Besonderheit des Stausees ist, dass er an beiden Enden je eine Staumauer hat. Die Passstraße verläuft am Nordufer des Stausees, am Südufer verläuft eine Nebenstraße parallel zur Passstraße. Am Westufer des Stausees nehmen einige Routen über den Marmolatagletscher auf den Gipfel (Punta Penia) des höchsten Dolomitenberges ihren Anfang. Am Ostufer des Stausees führt im Winter eine der längsten Schiabfahrten der Alpen vorbei, der Höhenunterschied dieser Abfahrt von der Marmolata (Punta Rocca) bis Malga Ciapela beträgt ca. 1900 m.
Die Ostrampe der Passstraße nach Malga Ciapela weist zahlreiche Kehren auf. Im Bereich der Kehren erreicht die Passstraße auch ihre maximale Steigung von 16 Prozent (Wikipedai)
Original photo by my nephew, Jake.
Edited by me with DDG, Topaz, Photoshop (because I loved the photo)
Jake has decided to take Photography as an 'A' level.
Somewhat of a surprise to me as I had no idea he was interested in photography!
His original is in the first comment box
He has a natural talent, although I've yet to see any drive/motivation ... hopefully early days!???
I don't see my role as being nagging aunt, however, a bit of encouragement via Flickr comments might help (although, there's stiff competition with the Xbox)

Most of our life takes place on wide, paved roads, often on real highways. Traveling these ways is fast, efficient and feels safer. But you're missing out on so much. You rush from appointment to appointment, from event to event or from vacation to vacation at top speed. And before you know it, there's hardly anything left of the trip.
I invite you to look for ways away from the main routes. Following the inconspicuous and hidden paths that are too easy to overlook, to live and experience more slowly and intensely.
You have to take care for yourself much more there, that's right. But awareness and mindfulness never were a mistake.
Life is full of wonders, surprises and amazing experiences. They are waiting for you to find them.
Unsere Leben verläuft meist auf breiten, asphaltierten Strassen, oft auf richtigen Autobahnen. Auf diesen Wegen zu reisen ist schnell, effizient und fühlt sich sicherer an. Doch man verpasst dabei so unfassbar viel. Man jagt mit Höchstgeschwindigkeit von Termin zu Termin, von Event zu Event oder von Urlaub zu Urlaub. Und ehe man es sich versieht ist von der Reise kaum noch etwas übrig.
Ich lade Euch ein nach Wegen abseits der Hauptstrecken zu suchen. Nach den unscheinbaren und versteckten Pfaden, die man zu leicht übersehen kann, langsamer und intensiver zu leben und zu erleben.
Man muss dort deutlich mehr auf sich achten, das ist richtig. Doch Achtsamkeit war noch nie ein Fehler.
Das Leben ist voller Wunder, Überraschungen und umwerfender Erfahrungen. Sie warten darauf, von Euch gefunden zu werden.

Prenons un peu de hauteur et observons d'un peu plus loin l'agitation quotidienne et, en l'occurrence, la réflexion attentive de deux personnages tandis qu'un troisième les attend...
Et dans un environnement graphique qui plus est ? Mais que demande le peuple des Foutographes !
Tsukiyama (築山) or the artificial mound and Ike (池) or the pond are the two basic elements of Daimyou gardens.
Most of the Daimyou gardens install pathways to appreciate the changing landscape while walking. This style of Japanese gardens is called Chisen-kaiyuushiki (池泉回遊式) or Stroll-around-the-pond style.
This is a stone-paved pathway down to the pond from the Tsukiyama in Kourakuen.

I arrived too late to catch the tide at the right place for this classic shot, so I had to improvise. This group of rocks were covered in almost fluorescent green weed and I thought they would make up for the lack of water that I had originally planned for.
Reflection of the entrance to the Adelaide Central Plaza in the stainless steel sculpture (aptly named Malls Balls) of two balls, one balanced on top of the other.
It is situated in the middle of Rundle Mall -- the main city shopping mall, with wide paved street filled with trees, lamp posts, benches, buskers, and the occassional bike trailer selling food.
at the end of paved road in southeast utah, natural bridges national monument was a 'what the hell' stop on the way to somewhere else
from the no-charge entry that day to practically no crowds, it was a helluva nice day to be alive
this image started out as a series of exposures that ended up going into the tonemapping software, even though it is present in my camera...old dogs, you know...it turned out okay but i wanted to soften the often jarring obviousness of the mapping
the title also comes from these last few days of dog-sitting my daughter's 3 month old rescue puppy, a border collie cross from a reservation and an absolute sweetheart

Paver, c'est paver.

The Stelvio Pass (Italian: Passo dello Stelvio; German: Stilfser Joch) is a mountain pass in northern Italy, at an elevation of 2,757 m (9,045 ft) above sea level. It is the highest paved mountain pass in the Eastern Alps, and the second highest in the Alps, just 13 m (43 ft) below France's Col de l'Iseran (2,770 m (9,088 ft)).
Das Stilfser Joch ist mit 2757 m s.l.m. der höchste Gebirgspass in Italien und nach dem Col de l’Iseran der zweithöchste asphaltierte Gebirgspass der Alpen. Das Stilfser Joch verbindet Bormio im Veltlin, Lombardei, mit Prad im Vinschgau, Südtirol. Wikipedia
