Just one last shot of these lovely little birds. After half an hour laying in the gravel these birds became so confident with my presence they came within 1m of me which actually made photographing them a little harder. Next time they can stick 3-4m away please. The two dark areas behind this bird were Turnstones.

Climbing the wrong ladder won't get you closer to your dreams. Did you hop on and start climbing without looking at what your ladder was propped against? Open your eyes and look around to make sure you are headed where you want to be.

Wikipedia: Phanom Rung Historical Park is an archaeological site in Thailand, covering the ruins of Prasat Phanom Rung, a Hindu Khmer Empire temple complex set on the rim of an extinct volcano at 402 meters (1,319 ft) elevation. It is located in Buriram Province in the Isan region of Thailand, and was built at a time when Khmer social-political influences were significant in Srisaket. It was built of sandstone and laterite between the 10th and 13th centuries. It was a Hindu shrine dedicated to Shiva, and symbolises Mount Kailash, his heavenly dwelling.

Compare this replica to the real one that I showcased on our Thailand road trip in the last album.

 

The Phanom Rung Stone Sanctuary is located in Buri Ram Province, on an extinct volcano. Built in accordance with Hinduism beliefs of the Shiva sect, the sanctuary had been constructed and used as a religious center for years. The construction presumably began around the 10th century A.D. and finished within the 13th century A.D. When King Jayavarman VII adopted Mahayana Buddhism, the function of the Hindu sanctuary had been changed to serve as a Mahayana monastery.

 

The site is approached from the east along the first three-leveled platforms leading to the first passage. Then there is a causeway lined with blunted stone pillars in parallel rows. The path of stone uprights then leads to the Naga Bridge. Far on the northern side of the cross-shaped passage is a laterite pavilion or Phlabphla called the Elephant Shelter. At the end of the bridge is a terraced staircase with 5 landings leading up to the sanctuary. Beyond the bridge is a vast platform which has a passage that will lead to the Naga Bridge, right in front of the central gate of the gallery. The gate is the first entrance which will direct travellers to the inner courtyard of the prasat, by crossing another Naga Bridge that connects the gate with the main prang.

 

The most important part, the main prang, is situated right at the center of the inner courtyard of the sanctuary. The building has a rectangular shape with re-entrant angles at the corners. The square mondop was built adjacent to the main prang. The architectural designs that were carved on the prang such as the posts at the door frame, pillars on the walls, lintels, porticos and pediments, depict designs of flora, leaves, hermits, gods and goddesses and characters from religious myths: Vishnu (Narai) resting on Ananta, the Naga king and Shiva dancing, for example.

The decorations found on the lintels and frontal pediments of the main prang help indicate the age of the main building together with the staircase and the Naga Bridge; they are believed to have been constructed around the 12th century A.D.

 

On the grounds of the inner courtyard, southwest of the main prang is a small prang with no roof. From the evidence of the style of art found on the carvings, pediments and lintels, itis understood that the minor prang was built before the main prang, around the 11th century A.D.

 

There’re remains of the brick base of the prang were also discovered lying on the northeast of the main prang and dated back to the 10th century A.D. Another structuremade of laterite stands on the southeast of the main prang and dated to the 13th century A.D. The laterite structure is contemporary to the building which is known as Rong Chang Phueak (the Elephant Shelter).

Phanom Rung, one of the largest and most significant of all Khmer temples in Thailand, is located on top of an extinct volcano. The temple was build between the 10th and 13th century on the ancient route from the Khmer capital Angkor Thom to Phimai, the site of another large Khmer temple further West in Nakhon Ratchasima. A 160 meter long processional walkway leads to the impressive central sanctuary. As the main sanctuary was constructed out of pink sandstone, Phanom Rung is also known as “stone castle”. Phanom Rung has been restored by the Thai Fine Arts Department. The monument has been submitted to UNESCO’s tentative list for consideration as a future World Heritage Site.

I wanted to write some comments about this image but I would like to hear what you thought when you first saw it.

 

This was shot with the Macro Mondays theme of closest in mind and I used the dollar bill as a reference in size.

Had I been able to extend my ladder even slightly then 66421 would not have a pole growing out of it as it approaches Kirksanton with the 13.15 Drigg Low Level Waste Repository - Barrow ABP stone empties.

Das versunkene Dorf

English Version below:

 

Die Geschichte dieses Kirchturms ist nicht romantisch als der Anblick des Kirchturms vielleicht vermuten lässt. Erbaut wurde die Kirche bereits im 14. Jahrhundert. Damals wurde sie noch von drei Seen umgeben: dem Reschensee,(Lago di Rèsia) dem Mittersee und dem Haidersee. Im Jahr 1950 kam es am sogenannten Reschenpass zu einer Stauung der drei Seen. Sie war schon lange von der faschistischen Regierung geplant und sollte dem Zweck der Energiegewinnung dienen. Die Stauung hatte zur Folge, dass der Reschensee sowie der Mittersee zusammengeführt wurden – das bedeutete aber auch, dass das gesamte Dorf Graun im Vinschgau(Curon Venosta) und auch ein Großteil des Dorfes Reschen versenkt wurden.

Unterwasser sind nur noch Überreste zu erkennen

 

Die Bewohner der kleinen Gemeinde wurden dadurch fast vollständig ihrer Existenz beraubt, denn insgesamt wurden 163 Häuser zerstört und mehr als 500 Hektar an fruchtbarem Kulturboden überflutet, wofür die Vertriebenen nur geringe Entschädigungen erhielten. Unter dem Wasser kann man heute nur noch die Überreste des versunkenen Dorfs erkennen, über dem Wasser nur noch den alten, romanischen Kirchturm, der aus Denkmalschutzgründen stehen gelassen und bereits mehrmals restauriert wurde. Man munkelt übrigens, dass auch heute manchmal noch die Glocken zu hören sind, die aus der Tiefe geläutet werden…

 

The sunken village

 

The history of this church tower is not romantic as the sight of the church tower might suggest. The church was built in the 14th century. At that time it was still surrounded by three lakes: the Reschensee, (Lago di Rèsia) the Mittersee and the Haidersee. In 1950 the three lakes at the so-called Reschen Pass were dammed. It had long been planned by the fascist government and was intended to serve the purpose of generating energy. The damming resulted in the Reschensee and Mittersee merging - but this also meant that the entire village of Graun in Vinschgau (Curon Venosta) and a large part of the village of Reschen were sunk. Only remains can be seen underwater

 

The residents of the small community were almost completely robbed of their livelihoods, because a total of 163 houses were destroyed and more than 500 hectares of fertile cultivated soil were flooded, for which the displaced received little compensation. Below the water you can only see the remains of the sunken village, above the water only the old, Romanesque church tower, which has been left standing for monument protection reasons and has already been restored several times. Incidentally, it is rumored that even today the bells can still be heard sometimes, which are rung from below ...
