These sequential doorways are on the roof of the Duomo in central Milan, Italy. This is a stunning cathedral in that you can actually access the roof, nearly all of it, on foot. The duomo is spectacular for many reasons, including the 2245 statues it contains, many on the roof.
These doorways, what I call in 3D the "portal effect", are allow passage through the supports buttressing the roof.

In the realm of Geekdom, I believe that I have one of the more peculiar obsessions. I enjoy getting up early in the morning, say 05:00, and looking out at the sky. If it looks very black over town, that is a promising portent. If it looks orangish, that means that there are low clouds over the peninsula and the sunrise will probably be a flop.. I go and fire up the computer and start the day's work. At 05:30, I have another look. If I can see any colour, I make my preparations for the morning's quest for The Quintessential Sequential Sunrise.
The preparations consist of the following, which must be performed in less than ten minutes: (1) get Canon G-11 and attach to cheap tripod, (2) pick the appropriate selection of neutral density and polarising filters from the filter box (3) retrieve a Fanta Orange soda from the bar fridge and slip it into a cozy, (4) grab a folding chair from the overflowing junk room, (5) check to make sure that I have my pants on, (6) stumble outside in the dark with no light (don't want to ruin my night vision), (7) sit down and wait for the action to begin. It's not that much different from going to a footie game, except for the part about pants. I'm sure that it's quite acceptable to show up at a footie game sans pants.
And, this why all the fuss. Yeah, baby, this is what I'm talkin' about: That's the moon up there in the corner. It was so dark at 05:41 that I couldn't see the controls on the camera; I had to work by feel. Fortunately, I have great hands. The shot above was a fifteen second exposure. This long exposure time has the effect of turning the water into a mirror. The town lights are very bright in comparison to the sky.
Four minutes later and I have moved to what it becoming my favourite spot. I like the way the trees frame the sky. This is still at fifteen seconds, so the water of the harbour is as shiny as mercury.
At -6:02 the sky is getting much brighter. This is when it gets fast and furious. I now have less than a ten minute window to catch the best of the sunrise: The sun is still well below the horizon, but it is beginning to light up the clouds much brighter. Note that you can barely see the lights of town. The sky is probably several hundred times brighter than it was a few minutes ago.
At 06:06 the sun's light is being broken up into beams shining between clouds near the visible horizon. This accounts for the radiating pattern of light and dark: This is only four minutes after the previous shot. We are now nearing the end of the show.
Two minutes later, at 06:08, the display it pretty much over: The colours will fade quickly now as the sunrise moves into its second phase when the shiny orb pops above the horizon.
What follows is simultaneously less visually interesting and more difficult for the photographer. As the sun rises, the saturation of the colours will become more washed out by the intensity of the light and the contrast ratio of the brightness surrounding the sun compared to the rest of the scene will overwhelm nealy any camera that an individual human can afford.
I suppose the very rich might be able to afford such cameras, but I'm sure that they have more profitable things to do with their time. Anyway, they would simply hire someone like to to do it for them.
If there are any of the very rich out there reading this (seems unlikely to me), keep in mind that I'm very serious about my art and I work cheap.
If I've hooked you on sequential sunrises, you can see more of mine here, here, and here.
That should keep you occupied until the next time the boss comes around to see what you're up to.
Got buzzed a few more times today :)

This number 39 is for the Sequential Numbers Group here on Flickr. Aware that we needed a number 39, I drove by a storage unit place today, and crept along the parking lot hoping the units would go up to 40, and I could get my 39. Well, at first, it looked as if they wouldn't go that high. Then I spotted a 40, and thought, "Ahah! There will be a 39! I get my camera ready, and drive up to the unit between 38 and 40, and sadly, there was only a 9. The 3 had long ago fallen off. So, I go to the Heartland Humane Society, to take some cat pictures, and when I am driving back home, I see a big truck full of ears of corn going by, north on Hwy. 99W in Corvallis, Oregon. Big as life it says 39! I decide a dedicated player should turn around and go after it. I do. Usually there are some ears of corn on the road behind the truck, kind of like Hansel's trail. None when you want them. By the time I turned around, I couldn't tell if the truck continued north through town or took the cutoff East to Hwy. 34. I picked the town, because he was already coming from the countryside. I caught up with him and picked correctly. I got my picture. I went back home and noticed the traffic stuck on the cutoff, was STILL stuck on the cutoff. I had almost decided I would have a better chance of catching up with him if I took that. I am so glad I didn't. So, ears my story! Ouch, that was corny! Oh well, there is a kernel of truth to it!
For the "My Life As" group, this addresses My Life As as serious Sequential Numbers Player. ON Sept. 26, 2006 I also added this to "My Story (Pool)" and to "Pictures with Stories (Pool)".

Sunflowers have a field life of about a week, so we plant a batch of sunflowers every week for our Pick-Your-Own flower patch. Here you can see the first batch starting to flower on the left. The small plants on the right will flower Labor Day weekend.

First version of CBS's color test pattern, used in conjunction with the network's very short-lived "field sequential" color system (405 lines, 144 fields / 24 frames per second) that only lasted a few months in 1951. The vertical wedges had 17 TV lines, the horizontal wedges 19 TV lines. Another variant would be used before the plug was pulled on that system.
