Jaisalmer, affectionately known as "the Golden City," is nestled right in the middle of the stunning Thar Desert. Its nickname truly fits, thanks to the beautiful yellow sandstone used to build its structures, which comes straight from the surrounding desert. The streets of Jaisalmer hide small treasures everywhere, offering a fairytale-like sight, just like here in this grand gate, where the light of an elegant chandelier gilds the lobed arcade. An entrance imbued with a special charm.

through the lens, the vibrant red of the vintage seat shimmered like a drop of molten lava. its curves, sculpted and proud, spoke of a time when cars had a personality, a flair that demanded attention without asking for it. parked by the marina, it stood like a jewel against the cool blue of the sky, its chrome details catching the sun like polished mirrors. this wasn't just a car; it was a character from a forgotten story, waiting for the road to whisper its name again.
in the soft shuffle of city streets, he sits steady as a metronome, a cigar fixed between his teeth, eyes hidden behind the dark certainty of his shades. the hat shades his stories, the leather holds his history, and somewhere in the air between us lingers the faint scent of unspoken decades.

I went back in 2019 to photograph it again and it was caught in a grass fire and has no paint left on it. It's not the same unfortunately. Makes me wish I took more pics the first time I was there.

Eine Kuh zwischen zwei Bäumen. Das ganze mit Teiltonung aufgepeppt. Also ein bisschen mehr Post Processing als sonst :)
Going to San Francisco. Replica of an old Toyota land cruiser on a map of California. Natural light from the window behind the scene. And yeah, the color process is from the awesome NIK Software plugin, it’s the bleach bypass. And good news, this plugin is now free.

The rainy season brings a unique beauty to nature, transforming the landscape into a lush, vibrant canvas. The earth drinks deeply from the heavens, and everywhere you look, life seems to spring anew. The air is cool and filled with the fresh scent of wet earth and blooming flowers. Raindrops dance on leaves, creating a soothing rhythm that fills the air. Rivers swell and flow with renewed vigor, while mist rises from the ground, wrapping the world in a gentle, mysterious embrace. It's a time of renewal and growth, where the colors of nature are at their richest, and the world feels alive with possibility
The Sticky Beaks Café and Pizzeria has gone for the retro look. In The Road to Longford slideshow you'll see they have a passion for old VW Kombi vans. But I love their retro styling, as shown in this picture. Although this table had been vacated, they were doing good business this day as the Australian Jazz Convention was in town.
Osaka's Sumiyoshi Taisha (住吉大社, "Sumiyoshi Grand Shrine") is one of Japan's oldest shrines. Founded in the 3rd century before the introduction of Buddhism, it displays a unique style of shrine architecture, called Sumiyoshi-zukuri, that is free of influence from the Asian mainland. Only two other shrine architecture styles are also considered purely Japanese: Shinmei-zukuri as seen at the Ise Shrines and Taisha-zukuri as seen at Izumo Taisha.

GUIMARÃES (Portugal): Centro Ciência Viva de Guimarães.
O Centro Ciência Viva de Guimarães – Curtir Ciência (uma alusão direta à tradição dos curtumes) ocupa o espaço da antiga Fábrica Âncora, em frente à Loja dos Registos, na Zona de Couros. Inaugurado a 17 de dezembro de 2015, o equipamento conta com uma exposição permanente com cerca de duas dezenas de módulos de sete áreas do conhecimento.
Edifício com história devolvido às pessoas
A antiga Fábrica Âncora apresenta-se como um ícone da tipologia construtiva de Couros, sendo um edifício de referência. Em 1269, foi constituída em Guimarães a Confraria de Sapataris, que terá estado na origem, em 1315, da Irmandade de S. Crispim e S. Crispiniano, fundada pelos mestres sapateiros João Baião e Pero Baião, que dotaram logo a instituição de uma fonte de rendimento ao legarem uma poça de curtumes na Rua de Couros, com sete pias de pedra.
A zona foi densamente povoada, tendo outrora faltado muitas vezes casas para as famílias operárias. A importância que então ostentava a atividade dos curtumes persiste ainda hoje em manifestações culturais vimaranenses. É o caso da Peregrinação Anual à Penha, uma das maiores celebrações religiosas do concelho que teve origem numa iniciativa de curtidores e surradores.

At Yu Yuan Garden,Shanghai,China.
I used Nikon Df and 50mmF1.8@F4.
Yuyuan Garden is a famous classical garden located in Anren Jie, Shanghai. It was finished in 1577 by a government officer of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) named Pan Yunduan. Yu in Chinese means pleasing and satisfying, and this garden was specially built for Pan's parents as a place for them to enjoy a tranquil and happy time in their old age.
In the 400 years of existence, Yuyuan Garden had undergone many changes. During the late Ming Dynasty, it became very dilapidated with the decline of Pan's family. In 1760, some rich merchants bought it and spent more than 20 years reconstructing the buildings. During the Opium War of the 19th century, it was severely damaged. The garden you see today is the result of a five year restoration project which began in 1956. It was open to the public in September, 1961.
