The Yellowstone river's lower and upper falls rightfully get the most attention in the park but Gibbon falls which is located roughly 5 miles north of Madison Junction on the Grand Loop Road gets a lot of looks and love as well.

Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares - Sevilla
El Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de la ciudad de Sevilla (Andalucía, España) está localizado en la plaza de América del parque de María Luisa. Al otro lado de la plaza se encuentra el Museo Arqueológico. Fue el pabellón de Arte Antiguo de la Exposición Iberoamericana de 1929.
Fue planteado como pabellón de Industrias, Manufacturas y Artes Decorativas. Finalmente, se le llamó pabellón de Arte Antiguo e Industrias Artísticas. Se trata de un edificio proyectado en 1913 y construido en 1914 por el arquitecto Aníbal González, autor también de los otros edificios levantados en la misma plaza de América. Es de ladrillo visto con motivos decorativos de cerámica. Por su estilo arquitectónico, fue conocido como el pabellón Mudéjar.
En principio constaba de dos plantas sobre una cámara de aireación para evitar la humedad. Se realiza una mejora durante la década de 1960 en la planta principal, que tenía más de doce metros de altura, y se dividió con una planta artificial (corresponde a la planta primera) por el arquitecto Antonio Delgado y Roig. En 1972 se unen las plantas con una gran escalera de caracol que diseña el arquitecto José Galnares Sagastizábal, trabajo que realiza después de que la construcción fuese designada para albergar el museo por el Decreto de Creación del Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de Sevilla, con fecha de 23 de marzo de 1972, constituido como una sección del Museo de Bellas Artes.
Sus funciones como museo se desarrollan desde el 4 de marzo de 1973, fecha en que abre sus puertas al público.

Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville
The Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville (Spanish: Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares) is a museum in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, located in the María Luisa Park, across the Plaza de América from the Provincial Archeological Museum.
The museum occupies the Mudéjar Pavilion (Pabellón Mudéjar) designed by Aníbal González and built in 1914. It served as an art pavilion, the Pabellón de Arte Antiguo, for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, when Aníbal González had the opportunity to design several additional permanent buildings for the plaza. The exterior is ceramic over brick, and has three doors with archivolts adorned with glazed tiles (azulejos).[citation needed]
The building originally consisted of two stories over an aeration chamber (necessary because of the humidity). In the 1960s, the main floor, originally over 12 metres (39 ft) high, was divided in two, with an intermediate level added by architect Delgado Roig. In 1972, as part of the preparations for the current museum, the various stories of the building were connected by a grand spiral staircase designed by José Galnares Sagastizábal.
The museum was established by a decree of 23 March 1972, initially as a section of the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville. It opened its doors to the public 4 March 1973.[2] For the next seven years, the museum fell under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education and Science, but the city government occupied more than half of the poorly maintained building. Neither institution took full responsibility. This situation led to a series of temporary closures. In 1976, the electric bill could not be paid, and the museum had to be shut until it could get power again. In 1979, heavy rains damaged the interior.

The Yonghe Temple Palace of Peace and Harmony, also known as the Yonghe Lamasery, or popularly as the Lama Temple, is a temple and monastery of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism located on 12 Yonghegong Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing, China. The building and artwork of the temple is a combination of Han Chinese and Tibetan styles. This building is one of the largest Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in China proper. The current abbot is Lama Hu Xuefeng. Building work on the Yonghe Temple started in 1694 during the Qing dynasty on the site where originally stood an official residence for court eunuchs of the Ming dynasty. After the Chinese Civil War ended in 1949, the temple was declared a national monument and closed for the following 32 years. It is said to have survived the Cultural Revolution due to the intervention of Premier Zhou Enlai. Reopened to the public in 1981, it is today both a functioning temple and highly popular tourist attraction in the city. 1681

This Milky Way photo was taken close to a popular beach with hundreds of visitors and cars by day and yet having an excellent night sky after the onset of astronomical twilight. The foreground was illuminated by the rotating lighthouse beam a few hundred meters away, thus providing a means of light painting of the scene.
Some of the most beautiful stories of ancient times refer to the silvery band of the Milky Way - a celestial river comprised by the light of billions of stars, that has traveled for thousands of years to reach our eyes. This majestic arc of light is more clearly visible on summer nights, when our gaze is towards the center of the Milky Way, which lies at about 25 thousand light years away - the brightest part of the band just above the tree and to left of the “Dark Horse” silhouette.
This band is bisected by obscuring clouds of interstellar dust, thus forming the “Great Galactic Rift”. The interstellar gas and dust gave birth to everything else in the Universe, including us - we are all made of stardust after all.
My deepest thanks and warmest wishes to everyone for 2025 - stay healthy and keep looking up!

Saheliyon-ki-Bari (Courtyard of the Maidens) is a major garden and a popular tourist space in Udaipur in Indian state of Rajasthan. It lies in northern part of the city and has fountains and kiosks, a lotus pool and marble elephants. It was built by Maharana Bhopal Singh. Saheliyon ki Bari means Garden of the Maidens. There is also a small museum here.
Sahelion Ki Bari' was laid for a group of forty-eight young women attendants who accompanied a princess to Udaipur as part of her dowry. The gardens set below the embankment of the Fateh Sagar Lake have beautiful lotus pools, marble pavilions and elephant- shaped fountains. These fountains are fed by the water of the lake gushing through ducts made for the purpose. Each water channel has its distinct sound and the mingling of these sounds complement the ambience of the place Near to saheliyon-ki-bari is burhani nagar and burhani masjid,vidhiya bhawan school and seva mandir marg.
Saheliyon Ki Bari is one the most beautiful gardens and a major tourist destination in Udaipur. The garden is famous for its lush green lawns, marble art and fountains. English translation of Saheliyon Ki Bari means "Garden of maids". This renowned garden is located on the banks of Fateh Sagar Lake, presenting a green retreat in the dry lands of Rajasthan. Garden of maids was built in the 18th century by Maharana Sangram Singh for the royal ladies.
As per the legends, the garden was designed by the king himself and he presented this garden to his queen. Actually, the Queen was accompanied by 48 maids in her marriage. To offer all of them, pleasurable moments away from the political intrigues of the court, this garden was made. This patterned garden used to be the popular relaxing spot of the royal ladies. The queen with her maids and female companions used to come here for a stroll and spend their time in leisure.
Due to this fact, the garden got its name. The superb architecture of the garden provides a breath-taking view to any observer. The garden is embellished with numerous fountains in its four water pools, chiseled kiosks and marble elephants. It is also celebrated for its lotus pool and bird-fountains. The lush green lawns, flowerbeds, and marble pavilions further enhance the romantic ambience of this magnificent garden.
In the later years, Maharana Bhopal Singh really liked this place and built a pavilion of rain fountains. The thought was to form an illusion of rain dancing in cadence with dancing maids. The Kings used to enjoy around the pools and fountains of this garden. These fountains were imported from England and you can trace them along with the main reservoir of the garden. The main reservoir has four black marbled kiosks in its corners and one white marbled kiosk in its center. On the top of kiosks, these fountains are in the form of sculpted birds that spurts water from their beaks producing the rain effect.
The museum exhibiting the huge collection of royal households is another attraction of this garden. It has many ancient pictures and things of the bygone period. Sight of stuffed cobras and other animals will definitely add a tint of adventure to your trip. Above all, you can stroll through the shady lawns, where the bunch of bougainvillea will bend down to greet you. Today, Saheliyon ki Bari has become the pleasure park for the recreation of Udaipur dwellers.
Garden of Maids is actually a place to visit by any visitor to this city. The crystalloid fountains, lotus pool, marbled elephants sprinkling water and many more attractions provide truly a picturesque sight to behold.

This Common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) seems very popular with these tiny bees. How many can you count? The 'flower spikes' of this ragweed are exceedingly long and offer pleasant arc for landing locations. My Ozark wildflower book says ragweed seeds are found in several archaelogical sites and are thought to have been cultivated for food.
La pintura cusqueña se caracteriza por el uso de temas exclusivamente religiosos, la falta de perspectiva y el predominio de los colores rojo, amarillo y tierra. También son notables por su abundante uso del pan de oro, especialmente con imágenes de la Virgen María. Aunque los pintores cusqueños estaban familiarizados con las estampas del arte renacentista bizantino, flamenco e italiano, sus obras eran más libres que las de sus tutores europeos; usaron colores brillantes e imágenes distorsionadas y dramáticas. A menudo adaptaron los temas para representar su flora y fauna nativas como telón de fondo en sus obras. Los ángeles arcabuceros se convirtieron en un motivo popular en las pinturas cusqueñas.
La mayoría de las pinturas cusqueñas fueron creadas de forma anónima debido a las tradiciones precolombinas que definen el arte como comunal.
