Fun Facts

The bald eagle has been the national emblem of the United States since 1782. It was chosen for its majestic appearance and representation of freedom and strength.

When it comes to sight, eagles have two centers of focus. This gives them the ability to see forward and to the side simultaneously.

The Church of the Nativity of Christ in the refectory chambers of the New Jerusalem Monastery was built simultaneously with the three vast chambers themselves in 1686-1692. By order of Princess Tatyana Mikhailovna, who donated money for the construction, each of the three chambers of the refectory served its purpose. Thus, the middle "meal", connected to the Nativity Church, was intended for all pilgrims who arrived at the monastery, the second - for the brethren's meals, and the third, apparently, more ceremonial, "a living room for worldly food of all ranks to people."

The Christmas refectory church was made two-story, with the second floor communicating with the chambers. Its architecture is typical of the late 17th century - in the Moscow Baroque style. The lower floor - the "warm" church - was originally surrounded by an open porch, which in the 18th century was replaced by an arcade that has survived to this day, decorated with classic rustic woodwork and pilasters.

The upper, "summer" church is in two tiers of windows, covered with a closed vault, on which there are two octagonal with a dome. The entire decor of the temple: architraves, columns on the apse, octagons under the cupola, are made in the Moscow Baroque style. Not only the church is decorated in the same way, but all the refectory chambers.

In 1792, a hundred years after its construction, the refectory chambers were badly damaged by a fire in the monastery kitchen. All the chambers were burnt out, and the church utensils were barely saved, while much was still damaged by fire. After renovation, in 1810, a wooden ceiling was made in the upper part of the Nativity Church, supported by two brick pillars. This greatly reduced the space of the large baroque temple and made it much darker. Therefore, already in the 1850s. this "innovation" was removed and the restoration was carried out under the direction of the architect K.A. Ton.

The luxurious tyablo iconostasis of the Nativity Church was burned down in 1922. Museum expositions were housed in the premises of the temple. During the colossal destruction of the monastery by the Nazis in 1941. The Nativity Church was almost not damaged, and during the restoration the original appearance of the interior of the church and the refectory chambers was restored.

In 1995, the Church of the Nativity of Christ was transferred to the newly formed monastic brethren; in 1996, restoration work began there, and in 1997 the church was re-consecrated.

Now the temple is a very interesting picture - it is practically side by side adjacent to the museum remaining in the refectory chambers, and the visitor may well seem at first to be an exhibition hall as well. Only by looking more attentively, one can notice that there is no longer museum life going on here.

From tomorrow I shall be in Robin hoods Bay on the North Yorkshire Coast for a week. The cottage has decent wi fi so i should be able to keep up with contacts without difficulty

I noticed this tree Acer Rubrum " October Glory ‘ when I visited the Yorkshire Arboretum two years ago but the photographs I took of it were rubbish . I had another attempt last month with a bit more success .

It's an unusual tree in that simultaneously it has some bright green leaves seemingly untouched by Autumn while also holding some vivid red ones . It's not that this tree is behaving strangely they have about six Acer Rubrum " October Glory ‘ and they all display in the same way . Anyone else know of any other trees with this unusual habit

Occupying the same environment and flowering simultaneously, this variety attracts far less attention than its admittedly beautiful cousin. In fact, as if to emphasize the point, it's common name is spadderdock which inspires far less poetry, I'm sure. Nonetheless, though I've never seen the flower open much beyond this point, it is attractive in its own right. Up close, the dark spot inside is a deep crimson color.

During the rut, we often hear the incredible, otherworldly sound of a bull elk bugling. But just how are they making that noise?

Until recently, scientists were stumped — the bugles reach pitches that are far too high to be produced by an elk’s voice box. It turns out there are two forces at work.

Use your binoculars to take a look at a bugling male – you’ll see that he is moving both his lips and his nostrils. That’s right: he’s roaring and whistling simultaneously.

And there......you’ve got the famous elk bugle.

We happened upon this handsome fella in early hours of daylight in Grand Teton National Park. He treated us to his bugle in the chilly morning air....

Deutscher Dom | German Cathedral #3

Explored July 20, 2020

Oh dear, I realise that this last part (for now) of my mini series of the German Cathedral was due two Sunday's ago. So I better upload it today so as to not keep you waiting for another week (and also to open the way for some new captures which I took this week at the "cube berlin"). I do have more captures taken inside the German Cathedral, and also at the Gendarmenmarkt, and will post them peu à peu. But for now, this is the last one.

This is another kaleidoscoped Sunday slide (and please check out the fourth comment – I was too slow with posting the photo link –, because last year I had already posted a slide of an image taken during that visit at the German Cathedral's highest point : right under the cupola). The title came to my mind not only because of the rather obvious "vertigo"-inducing height of the tower, and the fact that this is a duplicated / mirrored / flipped-and-combined version of the tower, but it's also derived from the fact that back in the day the two buildings adjacent to the German and the French Cathedral were both used as churches. The "New Church" of the German Cathedral was used as a "Simultaneum", a double church for Calvinists and Lutherans, and the French Cathedral was a church for the, also Protestant, Hugenot immigrants to Prussia. The "kaleidoscoping" was easy here; I copied the original capture to a new layer in Photoshop, mirrored it, duplicated the canvas, combinded both the original and the mirrored image, and then, in Lightroom, rotated the final image to the right. I think the final result looks very natural, almost as if the building had been constructed that way and not the result of a composite done in PS.

I hope that the French Cathedral, which also houses the "Hugenot Museum", will be opened again for visitors soon. It's under renovation since 2017; it will be interesting to compare the German and French Cathedrals' interiors; as I've mentioned earlier, the German Cathedral's interior was reconstructed in a modern way – lots of raw concrete as you can see above and also in my previous picture from the series –, while I assume that the French Cathedral's interior will be reconstructed true to the original (here's a link that will take you to the French Cathedral's website where you can check out a few interior captures – unfortunately very small, but you can see the difference: www.franzoesischer-dom.de/pages/start/de/franzoesischer-d...).

Happy Sliders Sunday Everyone, have a safe and healthy week ahead!

Hier ist das – vorerst – letzte Bild meiner Mini-Serie vom Deutschen Dom. Ich habe noch einige Fotos vom Gendarmenmarkt und auch vom Innern des Deutschen Doms, die ich peu à peu hochladen werde, aber wann genau, weiß ich noch nicht. Diese Version ist ganz offensichtlich nicht die Originalansicht (siehe vorheriges Foto aus der Serie im Album), sondern wieder eine Kaleidoskop-Spielerei in Photoshop. Das Endresultat (Vorgehensweise: Originalbild auf eine zweite Ebene kopiert, gespiegelt, die Arbeitsfläche entsprechend vergrößert, beide Bilder mittig zusammengesetzt, zurück in Lightroom und dort das fertige Bild einmal nach rechts gedreht) sieht erstaunlich natürlich aus, finde ich, fast so, als wäre das Gebäude so konstruiert worden und nicht das Ergebnis einer Photoshop-Arbeit. Im vierten (ich war zu langsam) Kommentar findet Ihr ein weiteres Kaleidoskop-Bild vom Dom, aufgenommen am höchsten erreichbaren Punkt dort: direkt unter der Kuppel.

Ich hoffe, dass bald der Zwilling des Deutschen Doms, der Französische Dom, wiedereröffnet werden wird. Momentan sind letzterer und das Hugenotten-Museum wegen Renovierungsarbeiten geschlossen. Ein Vergleich des Innern der beiden Türme wäre sicher spannend, da ich anhand von Fotos (hier zu sehen, leider klein, aber man kann den Unterschied zum Deutschen Dom gut erkennen: www.franzoesischer-dom.de/pages/start/de/franzoesischer-d...) davon ausgehe, dass der Französische Dom, anders als der Deutsche, auch im Innern originalgetreu wiederhergestellt werden wird, also ohne die zweifelsohne faszinierende Rohbeton-Konstruktion des Deutschen Doms.

Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Sommer-Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde, passt gut auf Euch auf und bleibt gesund!

I've always thought giraffes were simultaneously incredibly peculiarly constructed and intensely beautiful. I'm transfixed when I see them, and I really wanted to capture that in a photo or two.

Fabio Novembre uses furniture design to tell intense and fascinating stories in which the protagonist is often the human figure. This human figure is capable of becoming abstract and universal, able to propose a mythic beauty as occurred in greek art. So that Nemo, a face with classic features, is hollowed out to create an inhabitable space. The result is a head-armchair to be lived from the inside. Like a mask, it simultaneously conceals and reveals its inhabitant.

It looks like I got another life bird at Ken Hahn Park. I would have dismissed this chunk of a bird as a Hermit Thrush but another birder put the Swainson's on our radar. The bird stayed on the ground or on low branches in the shade of the Schotia Tree.

"During summer, look—and especially listen—for the Swainson’s Thrush and its distinctive, spiraling song in closed forests of northern North America and the West. Swainson’s Thrushes become numerous across most of forested North America during migration in spring and fall. Though these birds can be hard to spot on the ground in a dim forest understory, they sing frequently in summer and call frequently during migration. In the breeding season, listen for the species’ beautiful, flutelike song coming from rich forest. "allabouboids

This striking butterfly known since 1699 as 'Peacock Eye' due to the defensive 'owl eye like' markings on its hindwings has a range of other tactics which it uses against predatory birds or inquisitive mice and bats encroaching on its 'settled' tree bark territory. The underside of its wings offer excellent camouflage while hibernating in tree crevices or holes. Additionally the Peacock flashes its wings open when an enemy approaches, simultaneously rubbing the forewings and hindwings together to produce a warning hiss. (Thomas and Lewington : The butterflies of Britain and Ireland). The Peacock feeds on a wide variety of flowers. This one has settled on Red Campion.

Blossoms are produced in spring simultaneously with the budding of the leaves and are produced on spurs and some long shoots. The 3 to 4 cm (1 to 1 1⁄2 in) flowers are white with a pink tinge that gradually fades, five petaled, with an inflorescence consisting of a cyme with 4–6 flowers. The central flower of the inflorescence is called the "king bloom"; it opens first and can develop a larger fruit.

seeing and recording are almost simultaneous. His output is limited only by his ability to see. For this reason it has always been my belief that an experienced photographer, given the means to devote himself entirely to creative expression, should be able to produce a tremendous amount of valuable work.

Zubizuri, Bilbao, Vizcaya, País Vasco, España.

Zubizuri, también conocido como puente peatonal del Campo de Volantín, aunque popularmente llamado puente de Calatrava, es un puente en arco (cuya pista cuelga de él) sobre la ría del Nervión, en la ciudad vasca de Bilbao, en el norte de España. Une el Campo de Volantín (Castaños), en la margen derecha, con Uribitarte (el Ensanche), en la izquierda.

Fue diseñado por el arquitecto valenciano Santiago Calatrava, que también dirigió el proyecto de la renovación del Aeropuerto de Bilbao. Las obras comenzaron en 1990 y fue inaugurado en 30 de mayo de 1997.

El diseño consiste en un arco inclinado que une dos plataformas, con rampas de acceso y escaleras en ambas orillas, que sostiene la estructura peatonal con cables de hierro. Todo el puente está pintado de blanco, como es común entre las estructuras de Calatrava.

Desde su inauguración, casi simultánea con la del Museo Guggenheim, el Zubizuri fue un símbolo de la nueva Bilbao, constituyendo un elemento turístico más del paseo de la Ría. Es un paseo habitual de los huéspedes de los hoteles del Campo de Volantín antes de llegar al mencionado museo

Zubizuri, also known as the Campo de Volantín pedestrian bridge, although popularly called Calatrava bridge, is an arch bridge (whose track hangs from it) over the Nervión estuary, in the Basque city of Bilbao, in northern Spain. It joins Campo de Volantín (Castaños), on the right bank, with Uribitarte (El Ensanche), on the left.

It was designed by the Valencian architect Santiago Calatrava, who also led the Bilbao Airport renovation project. Work began in 1990 and it was inaugurated on May 30, 1997.

The design consists of an inclined arch that joins two platforms, with access ramps and stairs on both sides, which supports the pedestrian structure with iron cables. The entire bridge is painted white, as is common among Calatrava structures.

Since its inauguration, almost simultaneous with that of the Guggenheim Museum, the Zubizuri was a symbol of the new Bilbao, constituting another tourist element of the Ria promenade. It is a common walk for guests of Campo de Volantín hotels before arriving at the aforementioned museum.

"Cygnus touchdown in 30", cited Ellwood calmly into his headset for history's sake knowing that no one would hear it for weeks.

Having been awakened four days ago he still felt weak and a little woozy, but setting eyes on the Swan provided enough adrenaline to overcome such trivialities. The blue orb glowed in it's ink black surroundings and his eyes darted to take it all in before his one way trip was over and he'd never see such sights again. "When you are a planet named after a constellation, you gotta be good", he quipped to himself.

The Rocinante pierced the atmosphere with a fiery roar that baptized the ship and ended all possibilities of communication with Earth simultaneously.

Another jolt as the reverse rockets fired adding to the cacophony that was his tiny world for the moment, ten NASCAR races combined couldn't mimic the din. Ever so slowly the descents' speed was lessened until that spine shrinking final blast, the hover, and then touchdown. All was silent except for his breathing which he had to urge because his body seemingly had forgotten to do it on its own.

Test probes had reported air that was breathable, too late to worry about that now so Ellwood unscrewed his helmet and tossed it aside, unless he would need a fishbowl later it was useless now. He took two deep breaths as he stared at the hatch. The hatch that would open to a new world, his new world. One final thought hit him as he reached for the door to the rest of his life, 'did I leave the oven on?'....

I know that history is simultaneously a bloody mess and a collection of feats so inspiring and amazing they make you proud to share the same DNA structure with the rest of humanity. I know you'd better focus on the good stuff or you're screwed.

A Halloween decoration emanates an eerie feeling of omnipresence as it beckons me from the shelf of a discount store. Even in the context of a brightly lit retail environment, full of shoppers and just one aisle away from potato chips, the eyes radiate pure malevolence. In moments like this it all feels directed solely at me. It's almost as if only I can see these things as they truly are, rather than the cheap plastic skull that other shoppers see. My mind always seems to work in this two-track system: interpreting what I actually see versus how things make me feel. There's often a wide gulf separating the two. It's the simultaneous curse and blessing bestowed upon artists. I snapped the picture then hurried on with my shopping. But memories of this moment will linger.

Tak Arikushi plays Gypsy-jazz music with a Japanese twist: he fuses the red-hot swing rhythms of Django Reinhardt with rhapsodic Japanese melodies both traditional and contemporary. The music is an exploration of the crossroads of American jazz and Japanese culture, and the historic exchange between the two. His accolades include sharing the stage with Gypsy-jazz giant Stephane Wrembel, a concert I also attended. Inventive arrangements with the acoustic string-swing instrumentation are played with virtuosity and passion for a sound that will have you tapping your toe and simultaneously contemplating zen. I am not sure, if this is the best photo of Tak I have, but it's certainly the latest from a jam session at the Drom's 'Swing Tuesday'. Here he is on the stage with Gabriel- clarinet, Max- bass and Matt Smith- trumpet. Tak is at these sessions quite often and his duels with other guitarists are a real treat. Tak usually plays Gitane guitar (John Jorgenson), but on this occasion he brought his Ibanez.

Roe Deer / capreolus capreolus. Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire. 02/08/22.

Another image of the female Roe Deer I saw on Salisbury Plain back in August. The image was made from a burst of shots taken when I first spotted her. Apologies for the similarity to a previous posting - though her ears are in different positions and some of the flies have gone from her face!

I had been so hopeful I'd be able to spend a lot more time watching/photographing her from my car. Engine off, camera on silent, (as always) and me hardly daring to breathe. I waited for her to settle and move about, giving different views of herself. Simultaneously, a trail bike appeared from nowhere and roared towards me in a plume of dust.

I'm sure you can guess what the doe did, and it wasn't hang around.

After watching this two slightly immature eagles fight over this stump space I think I can say that, like the quantum mechanical Pauli exclusion principle, this proves that two eagles cannot occupy the same space on a stump simultaneously. Of course this violates the Schrodinger's cat thought experiment that tries to illustrate the absurdity of applying quantum theory to the macro-physical world, but hey, even that appears to be in question these days...

My new rig using three 200mm lenses simultaneously is finally able to produce some images! Still working out several kinks in the process.

"The California Nebula is an emission nebula located in the constellation Perseus. It is named for its resemblance to the shape of the state of California in the United States. Here is an overview of its key characteristics:

Distance and Size: The California Nebula is approximately 1,000 light-years away from Earth and spans around 100 light-years in length. It appears large in the sky, with an angular size of around 2.5 degrees, which is about five times the width of the full moon.

Composition and Color: The nebula is predominantly composed of hydrogen gas, and its striking red color is due to the ionization of hydrogen atoms. This ionization occurs when ultraviolet light from nearby stars excites the hydrogen gas, causing it to emit a characteristic red glow.

Exciting Star: The main source of ionization for the California Nebula is the bright, hot star Xi Persei (or Menkib), a massive O-type star. The ultraviolet radiation from this star plays a significant role in energizing the surrounding gas.

Visibility: Despite its large size, the California Nebula is relatively faint and difficult to observe with the naked eye. It is best viewed with long-exposure astrophotography or through wide-field telescopes equipped with hydrogen-alpha filters, which enhance the nebula's emission."

I’ve already done this before and it’s just so much fun that I do it every year. Since you can never be sure what comes out, I took a lot of such images, where I liked this one the most, even though it’s less regular compared my previous ones. Hope you like it too! :)

Melittis melissophyllum (Lamiaceae) 120 21

Melittis melissophyllum is a species of flowering plant in the mint family, Lamiaceae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Melittis.

It is native to central and southern Europe from the British Isles + Portugal east to Turkey + Ukraine + the Baltic States.

The plant grows in shady deciduous woods, often with oak, beech, and chestnut. It can also be found among pines and junipers. It is common at altitudes of 0–1,400 meters above sea level.

Melittis melissophyllum reaches on average 30–50 centimeters in height. It is a strongly aromatic plant with erect hairy stems. This species is quite variable in the shape of leaves and colors. The leaves reach 5–9 centimeters in length. They are oval, bluntly-toothed, quite hairy. They have a short petiole and are in opposite pairs up the stems. The inflorescence is composed of large pedunculated lowers (two to six, or more) growing in the axils of the leaves. The flowers are labiate, arranged in pairs, and one-sided (all flowers "look" simultaneously). They are usually white or pale pink with a large pinkish-purple blotch on the lower lip. The flowering period extends from May through August.

simultaneous photographing, 2017

I must admit to becoming quite addicted to this technique. I tilt the camera and shoot the silhouette. Then leaving the shutter open, I ask the model to switch on the torch and I simultaneously pan the camera across the frame. For this one I used a full frame 12mm fisheye lens making use of the aperture ring. The line created looks better if you can reduce the aperture to let less light on to the sensor.
