The Temple of Dendur is an Egyptian Temple commissioned by the Roman Emperor Augustus around 15 BC and dedicated to the goddess Isis / Osiris. The sandstone temple was built at Dendur / Tuzis, about 80 km south of Aswan; at its original location, the temple would have been submerged by Lake Nasser upon completion of the Aswan Dam. In 1963 the temple was dismantled as part of an UNESCO project, and in 1965, given to the United States as a gift from Egypt. In 1967 the temple was awarded to the The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The rebuilt temple opened to the public in the Met’s newly constructed Sacker Wing in 1978.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art or “The Met,” founded in 1870, is located on the edge of New York’s Central Park / Museum Mile and is one of the largest and most visited museums / art galleries in the world. A permanent collection of over two million items is spread over seventeen departments.
Marjorie McNeely Conservatory at Como Park in St. Paul, Minnesota was first opened in 1915.

The National Capitol Columns
architectural style: Corinthian columns
The monument consists of twenty-two Corinthian columns, centered in the 20 acres known as the Ellipse Meadow. They were originally part of the U.S. Capitol building's east portico.The Columns now stand on a foundation of stones, constructed from the old east portico's steps. The reflecting pool is fed by small stream which runs down a channel in the steps.

Striking complexity and grace in the tiling, carving and sculpture of fittings and decorations of this ancient palace in Seville Spain. As might be expected the site has undergone numerous transformations from its origins in the seventh century.

The National September 11 Memorial remembers the nearly three thousand people killed in the September 11, 2001 terror attacks (World Trade Centre 2001 attack and 1993 bombing, Shanksville, PA. crash, and the Pentagon attack.
The Memorial’s twin reflecting pools were designed by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker. The pools and man-made waterfalls sit within each tower’s footprint; surrounding the pools are the names of each person, inscribed onto bronze panels, killed in the 2001 and 1993 attacks.
Beautiful sunrise from Lincoln Memorial, looking over the reflecting pool and the Washington Memorial.

It's that special twilight referred to as the "blue hour', although I never recall it lasting an hour. After the sun drops below the horizon a phenomena described as sunlight scattering occurs in the upper atmosphere that illuminates the sky with a beautiful blue tone. It only lasts for about 30-40 min then black banishes the blue. If you are an early riser you will see that blue makes a return performance in the morning twilight just before sunrise. Before I took up photography I don’t think I ever appreciated the “blue hour”, I must have been unconscious.
The christmas tree is officially up and all lit up in front of the Capitol Building. I missed the ceremony but made it to see it in all it’s tree glory. Can’t wait for the White House tree - See more at: www.abpan.com/blog/page/2/#sthash.Nff7iLHj.dpuf
More from my visit to the Pemaquid Lighthouse in Maine. One of the highlights of this scene is this long slope of undulating solid rock, carved out over millions of years by the unrelenting waves. It extends much further than seen here--perhaps 100 meters or so at low tide (you can see more of this rock here: www.flickr.com/photos/80014607@N05/14312987792/in/photost... ). The gentle sloping nature of the rock means that there are a number of places where small pools of sea water remain in the wake of the receding tide--good fodder for the photographer.
