Before meeting in this Second Empire structure, the prefecture government of Tarn met in the Palais de la Berbie. In 1823, the general council acquired this edifice, the Hôtel de Carbonel, previously known as the Boyer House dating from 1713. To install the services of the prefecture in this newer facility, a new wing dedicated to departmental archives was added in 1832.
The expansion and development work was entrusted in 1825 to the architect Jean-François Mariès.

Albi is a charming commune in southern France, in the region of Occitania. It is the prefecture of the Tarn department, on the river Tarn, 53 miles (85 kilometers) northeast of Toulouse. Its inhabitants are called Albigensians (Albigeois in French). It is the seat of the Archbishop of Albi.
The Episcopal City of Albi, which is centered around the Cathedral Sainte-Cécile, was added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 2010 for its unique and well-preserved architecture. The site includes the Musée Toulouse-Lautrec, dedicated to the artist who was born in Albi.
UNESCO's World Heritage Center notes the Old Bridge (Pont-Vieux), the Saint-Salvi quarter, that quarter's church, the fortified cathedral (from the late 13th century) in unique southern French Gothic style from local brick, the bishop's Palais de la Berbie, and residential quarters, which help the Episcopal City of Albi form a "coherent and homogeneous ensemble of monuments and quarters that has remained largely unchanged over the centuries... a complete built ensemble representative of a type of urban development in Europe from the Middle Ages to the present day."

Located at 301 Main Street, this distinctive stone structure was built in 1937-38 by the Works Project Administration (WPA). It features a blended appearance with Art Moderne and Romanesque Revival elements designed by architect Paul Jones Arnett.
Greenup, Kentucky is a small Ohio River town located in the northeast of the commonwealth between Portsmouth, Ohio and Ashland.
The famous shore temple:
This most famous temple was built with blocks of granite, dating from the 8th century AD during the reign of Narasimhavarman II. This is another UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984. It covers a big complex of temples and shrines in Mahaballipuram. Mamallapuram had been known to mariners, at least since Marco Polo’s time as "Seven Pagodas" alluding to the Seven Pagodas of Mamallapuram that stood on the shore, of which one, the Shore Temple, survives.
Mamallapuram- A general description:
Mamallapuram, also known as Mahabalipuram, is a town in Chengalpattu district in the southeastern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It is best known for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of 7th- and 8th-century Hindu Group of Monuments. The town was named after Pallava king Narasimhavarman I, who was also known as Mahamalla. It is about 60 kilometres south of Chennai. The site is managed by the Archaeological Survey of India.
Mahabalipuram was the capital region during the reign of Pallava Dynasty in the 7th century AD. The Pallava rulers used to hold the definitive command in the southern part of India. The rulers were popular for their inclination towards Tamilian art and culture. The power and creativity was at its peak during the kingdom of Narasimha Varman-I and II. The rulers immortalized their glories with the splendid monuments they built. The Monuments reflect their finest architectural splendour, and rich cultural heritage of India.
Other remarkable Monuments
A) The Descent of the Ganges
The Descent of the Ganges or Arjuna's Penance – One of the largest giant open-air rock reliefs in the world. Measuring 96 by 43 feet, is a giant open-air rock relief carved on two monolithic rock boulders. The legend depicted in the relief is the story of the descent of the sacred river Ganges to earth from heaven led by Bhagiratha, the legendary king of the Ikshvaku dynasty. A remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984.
B) The monolithic ‘Pancha Ratha Temples’ of Mahabalipuram (The Five chariot temples)
In the southern Mahabalipuram is a set of five magnificent monolithic rock structures, built by the Pallavas in early 7th century A.D. This group of monuments is maintained by Archeological Survey of India (ASI) and is also part of the UNESCO Heritage Site.
The five rathas are named after the 'Pandavas' (five brothers) of Mahabharata and one after Draupadi. The five rathas are Dharmaraja Ratha, Bhima Ratha, Arjuna Ratha, Draupadi Ratha and Nakul-Sahadev Ratha.
All the rathas are aligned in north-south direction, and are made up of monolithic granites. Though they are mistakenly referred to as temples, but they were never regarded as such, because none of them were completed before the death of Narasimhavarman I.
Descriptions of each Ratha-
Draupadi Ratha
Upon entering the complex the first smallest temple on the left is dedicated to Draupadi, the common consort of Pancha Pandavas. The roof of this is a special arch, like thatched cottage. The temple is guarded on two sides of its entrance by two beautiful sculptures of women. This unfinished structure is dedicated goddess Durga.
Arjuna Ratha
The very next to Draupadi Ratha is the temple dedicated to Arjuna. The Arjuna ratha resembles a small palace or pavilion. It is a two-tier structure, and is having an octagonal dome. The walls are curved into panels with fourteen sculptures of gods and humans.
Bhima ratha
Bhima ratha is the largest ratha here and is also the most beautifilly carved one.
It is a single tiered oblong structure with a barrel-vaulted roof with an unfinished passage supported on pillars mounted with lion posts as the base.
Dharmaraja Ratha
Dharmaraja Ratha is another monument in the Pancha Rathas complex at Mahabalipuram, India, is an splendid example of monolith Indian rock-cut architecture. Dating from the late 7th century, it is attributed to the reign of King Mahendravarman I and his son Narasimhavarman I (630–680 AD) of the Pallava Kingdom.
Resembling a chariot (ratha), it is carved out of a single, long stone of pink granite. Though sometimes mistakenly referred to as a temple, the structure was not consecrated because it was not completed following the death of Narasimhavarman I. The structure is named after the eldest of the Pancha Pandavas, of epic Mahabharata fame, though this nomenclature is not supported by its iconography. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva.
There are many sculptures on the corners of the sanctum, which depict Shiva; Harihara, Brahma-Sasta, Skanda, Brahma, Ardhanarisvara (half Shiva half Parvati) and Krishna are
depicted alongside an inscribed portrait of a king, indicated to be Narasimhavarman I, who commissioned the temple.
Nakula & Sahadeva Ratha
The ratha dedicated to Nakula & Sahadeva stands isolated towards the northern end with a large sculpture of an elephant adjoining it.
There is a big sculpture of a bull behind Draupadi & Arjun Rathas.
The premises has a few rocks with unfinished works which indicate more structures were still in plan to be finished.

Parking structure and urban scene near the Highline Park in New York City
When in New York City... visit the Highline Park, as we did on this 2010 summer visit. For those who may not know, the Highline Park is a novel New York location, a park high above the streets that occupies the right of way of an old elevated railway. It is widely regarded as one of the most innovative public spaces in this city, and it really is a remarkable place.
It is also a great place to do photography. There are plenty of people subjects there, and there is all of the other stuff that is worth shooting in New York, plus the elevated perspective provides a lot of views that are different from those seen from street level. We've all seen this urban parking structures, which stack cars up several deep in order to make more efficient use of limited space. But we don't often see them from above, where the metal framing suggests planes that aren't visible from below but which connect in interesting ways with the angled lines and planes of the other nearby buildings.

Sasbahu Temple, also called the Sas-Bahu Mandir, Sas-Bahu Temples, Sahastrabahu Temple or Harisadanam temple, is an 11th-century twin temple in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India. Near the Gwalior Fort and dedicated to Vishnu in his Padmanabha form, like most Hindu and Jain temples in this region, it is mostly in ruins and was badly damaged from numerous invasions and Hindu-Muslim wars in the region. It was built in 1093 by King Mahipala of the Kachchhapaghata dynasty, according to an inscription found in the larger of the twin temple. The twin temples are situated in the Gwalior Fort.
The temple's tower and sanctum has been destroyed, but its architecture and damaged carvings can still be appreciated from the ruins. The jagati platform is 100 feet (30 m) long and 63 feet (19 m) wide, on a square plan. The temple was three-storeyed, which was one of its distinguishing features and sophistication. It followed a central cluster concept, states Adam Hardy. The surviving elements of the temple are the entrance porch and the mandapa. According to James Harle, though the prasada (tower, spire) no longer exists, the triple storey plan with a cruciform foundation and balconies suggests that it had a North Indian Bhumija style architecture. This style, states Harle, is marked by a well proportioned superstructure, its "regularly arranged little subordinate sikharas strung out like gigantic beaded garlands".
This temple mainly has three entrances from three different directions. In the fourth direction, there is a room which is currently closed. The entire temple is covered with carvings, notably 4 idols of Brahma, Vishnu and Saraswati above its entrance door. The pillar carvings show Vaishnavism, Shaivism and Shaktism related carvings. The larger temple ornamentation covers all the exterior walls and all surviving interior surfaces.
The twin temple, like elsewhere in India, has locally been called Sasbahu temple. The word Sasbahu means "mother-in-law, bride" or "a mother with her daughter-in-law", an association that implies their being together and interdependent. The Sas temple is typically the larger older temple of the twin. The Gwalior Sasbahu temple follows this style, but both temples are dedicated to Vishnu. Only the Sas temple has survived in some form, the Bahu temple is a shell structure of the original one storey with a highly ornate door frame and its defaced wall reliefs surviving. The remnants of the Bahu temple at Gwalior suggest that it may have been a smaller version of the Saas temple.
The Sas temple has a square sanctum attached to a rectangular two storey antarala and a closed three storey mandapa with three entrances. The temple main entrance porch has four carved Ruchaka ghatapallava-style pillars that are load-bearing. The walls and lintels are intricately carved, though much defaced. On the lintel of the entrances, friezes of Krishna-leela scenes are carved inside, while the outer side narrate legends from other Hindu texts. Above the lintel is Garuda, the vahana of Vishnu.
The Bahu temple also has a square sanctum with 9.33 feet (2.84 m) side, with four central pillars. Its maha-mandapa is also a square with 23.33 feet (7.11 m) side, with twelve pillars. The temple, like most Malwa and Rajputana historic temples, provides multiple entrances to the devotee. The roof consists of two rotated squares that intersect to form an octagon capped by successive overlapping circles. The pillars have octagonal bases as well, with girls carved but these have been defaced and mutilated. The sanctum has an image of damaged Vishnu, next to whom stands Brahma holding the Vedas on one side and Shiva holding the trident on the other side.

A passion I have and that seems to be growing fast as I look for and take photos in SecondLife is URBAN / GRUNGE photography and photo manipulation art. I dont seem to get enough of it inside SL. As such, when an amazing sim that I love hanging out at called the UNDERGROUND GARAGE decided to do a massive overhaul of their sim to create an entire urban rock grunge city scape of dirty streets, stores, bars, clubs and stages, I fell in love! I took many photos of the SIM Group's amazing builds. The name of the group is called "NIMUE'S ESCAPE" and they called their sim "SIN CITY - HARD ROCK PARK". If you are a resident of SecondLife, you must use the Surl Link I provide in the credits and explore this amazing sim (sims actually). They will be using it for great rock clubs and concert events.
The photo I used for this Urban street scape is called STORMY STREETS. When I photo SL scenes like this, I make sure the sky is set to a cloudless bright blue so that I can easily clip out the sky from the photo in PS. Then I added a photo I took a couple weeks ago in Real Life of some awesome clouds that were building up near my home. I enhanced the clouds to make them look darker and evil - like a wicked impending storm was approaching. I applied two more layers over the scene to add the BLOOD RED accents in the clouds and around the borders (one texture is from the amazing textures of Pareeerica - in credits).
The reds to symbolize blood in the scene. Storm Streets was a dual meaning - both the literal storm of the weather to hit the streets and the figurative meaning of the danger in the streets when you see the dead man in the street. The dead man in the street is a pose of my avatar in SL. Actually the pose actually makes my avatar lay by the edge of a pool lazily swishing the water - but it worked well to lay on the edge of a dirty street DEAD. I added further tinges of red around the body. I finally added one of my last textures over it all to give the art an old painting crackled look. All the enhancement textures on the art added a further roughness and dirtiness to the building and surrounding structures.

Here's what I'm up to at work these days: a 1950s style foundation garment. It's basically an independent project, since there's a little lull in the workload at the moment. I haven't done 20th century undergarments much, and we've got some operas set in the 50s coming up next season, so it's good practice.
On one half you can see the pads pinned to the form to make it the right size, and the black lines of twill tape marking where seams and edges will be. On the other half you can see the garment in progress. I'm using embroidered satin for the center front, plain satin for the bust cups, stretch net for the side panels, and the rest of the body is made of three layers of fabric (two of bobbinet, one of soufel) quilted together in a diagonal plaid pattern (I did the quilting as well). There are also spiral bones in casings along all the vertical seams.
Lighting: An SB-900 through an umbrella camera left, and an SB-800 with a 1/2 cut CTO gel through a 1/4" grid aimed at a gobo consisting of a lot of hangers dangling off one another.

Eden Valley.
Most of the land between Springton and Eden valley was taken up by Thomas Matthews and occupied by tenant farmers, and the area that became the town of Eden Valley was owned by William Lillecrapp who also had tenant farmers on the land. Eden Valley was created from land owned by Lillecrapp in 1864. Land was first surveyed in the district for one of Angas’ Seven Special Surveys in 1839. The Angas land, however was not sold off to other buyers until 1884, five years after the death of George Fife Angas. The other major land owner of the district was Thomas Matthews of Hurds Hill, Coromandel Valley who purchased land here in the early 1840s. He built a grand house called Charlton House and moved his family here. He established a dairy with over 100 milking cows to produce cheese. He ended up with over 5,000 acres of land. Once the Kangaroo grass gave up in the mid 1850s and the dairy ceased, Matthews moved back to his property in Coromandel Valley but his family did not sell their 5,000 acres at Eden Valley until the 1940. Eden Valley, once surveyed blossomed over night with the hotel opening in 1866. Next William Randell of Gumeracha opened a flour mill for the wheat farmers in 1866. He wanted more milled flour to cart down to the Murray River for transhipment to the Victorian gold fields. (The mill burnt down in 1913.) Late in the 19th century a butter factory opened in a small stone structure beside the combined Post Office and store. This Post Office and store was built around 1884 once freehold land was available in the town. A Baptist church was built in Eden Valley in 1869 and it continued for many years. A new Baptist Church was erected in 1928 in Gothic style with buttresses etc. It became a Congregational Church in 1929 and then a joint Presbyterian-Congregational Church from 1965 to 1977. It next became part of the Uniting Church of Australia but it has since been deconsecrated around 2001 and is now the Eden Valley Community Arts centre. St Peter’s Lutheran with a thick thatched roof was built before the town was developed in 1862 and it still stands, albeit covered in concrete and with a galvanised iron roof behind the current church. It was heightened and updated in 1892. The Lutherans built a fine new church in 1912 with an impressive bell tower. Note the bell tower and steeple and the side gable with pressed tin facing to the gables. The town had a Lutheran school from 1871 until closure during World War One. The state school opened in 1877, only closing in 1971. Apart from a blacksmith shop the town flourished because of the wine industry. Vines were extensively planted in the 1880s but Penfolds was the first big winery to set up in the town. This happened in 1922. Other wineries have established themselves here since the 1960s.
One of two similar structures bordering the Juego de Pelota or ball court. Note the stone ring near the center of the structure. The players would attempt to pass the ball through this ring using their bodies, mostly by deflecting it with their hips.

Escalier de la bibliothèque universitaire de Strasbourg.
Un grand escalier hélicoïdal y a été installé, suspendu par d'immenses tiges métalliques. C'est l'entreprise Schafner qui a participé à sa construction, considérée comme un chef d'œuvre à lui seul qui a même été primé par les Amis du Vieux Strasbourg. "Le résultat est très fidèle au concours : la lumière est abondante, zénithale, comme les Gloires dans la peinture religieuse de la Renaissance", raconte l'architecte, Nicolas Michelin.
