Egeskov Castle (Danish: Egeskov Slot) is located near Kværndrup, in the south of the island of Funen, Denmark. The castle is Europe's best preserved Renaissance water castle.

Due to the troubles caused by the civil war known as the Count's Feud (Danish: Grevens fejde), general civil unrest, and a civil war introducing the Protestant Reformation, most Danish noblemen built their homes as fortifications. The castle is constructed on oaken piles and located in a small lake with a maximum depth of 5 metres (16 ft). Originally, the only access was by means of a drawbridge. According to legend, it took an entire forest of oak trees to build the foundation, hence the name Egeskov (oak forest).

Outside, the castle is a Late Gothic building. Inside the original elements already show Renaissance design.

A passage in Antelope Canyon X. Canyon X is located in the same canyon as the iconic upper and lower Antelope Canyon in the Navajo Nation Reservation at Page, Arizona. USA.

Antelope Canyon X is named after the X marking carved into the Navajo Sandstone, created by millions of years of rainfall and wind.

Ce château est situé à Hillerød, dans la région Hovedstaden ou Région-Capitale dans le Nord-Est de l'île Sjælland du Danemark.

 

Une vue à partir de la promenade Søstien, longue de 2 km, qui fait le tour du petit lac Slotssøen et permet aux visiteurs de voir Frederiksborg Slot sous différents angles.

 

Construit sur 3 îlots au milieu d'un lac à l'orée des forêts giboyeuses, ce château fut acheté par Frederik II (1559-1588), grand amateur de chasse. Son fils, Christian IV (1588-1648), qui y était né, décida, une fois au pouvoir, d'en faire, entre 1599-1622, un palais Renaissance à l'image de ses ambitions politiques.

 

La fontaine de Neptune installé au centre de la cour d'honneur fut sculptée à Prague en 1620 par Adrian de Vries. Neptune la domine, symbole de la puissance de la marine danoise. La Renommée, elle, arbore la couronne et le monogramme de Christian IV.

 

Devenu un bel exemple d'architecture Renaissance hollandaise (même architecte que la Børsen de Copenhague), le château grandiose en brique rouge, agrémenté de décors en grès et d'élégants pignons, servit de résidence royale durant plus de 300 ans.

I always have to visit the Slot Canyons in Page whenever I visit Arizona. October is not a good month to try and capture the famous light rays but it is not nearly as crowded as other times. You must be on a tour. I always opt for a photo tour so I can take my tripod in. There was only one other person on the tour with me so it was not as crazy as it can be. This place can be a real zoo with people everywhere and guides yelling at people to get out of the way. It is still an amazing place and well worth a visit if you are in the area. The upper Canyons are much more accessible than the Lower Slot Canyons. The first time I visited this area I went to the lower Canyons and they are amazing. You enter the lower slot canyons via an opening in the ground...you basically slide in and then the only way out is up a very tall ladder at the end. For the upper Slot Canyons you just walk in and walk out.

Antelope Canyon - Arizona

Es gibt diese Dinge: Die sind sind so schön, die kann sich niemand ausdenken, niemand erfinden, niemand nachstellen. Diese Dinge, die nur die Natur selbst über viele Tausend Jahre schaffen kann. Jeder, der in den Antelope Canyon zum ersten Mal hinabsteigt, ist überwältigt und sprachlos. Denn es ist einer dieser Orte, an denen sich der Mensch winzig klein vorkommt.

 

When a surfer is slotted, they are locked into a nice tasty (great) barrel. The wave has created a hollow shape and the surfer is enclosed by it. As in, “That surfer was so slotted on that wave!”

I took this photo the last time I was in Antelope Canyon in August 2014 using a Nikon D610.

The water and wind has eroded the sandstone in this upper Antelope slot at Page , Arizona. Amazing shapes and colors. Too early in the year for the light rays.
