For the past couple of years I've met up for a day out with a fellow Flickr architectural photographer doing the thing that we both really enjoy, photographing architecture. Joseph Pearson (I've linked to his photostream in the first comment box) and I spent a happy few hours walking around Bermondsey and Canary Wharf back in May. I hope that we can continue to have an annual meet up to shoot a few pictures and better yet, shoot the breeze over a coffee or two. These two buildings, both newer structures within the Canary Wharf estate, sit next to each other and make what I think is an interesting juxtaposition of architectural styles.
Les stromatolites sont des structures rocheuses formées par des communautés microbiennes (surtout des cyanobactéries) qui piègent et cimentent des sédiments en couches. Elles figurent parmi les plus anciens témoignages de vie sur Terre.
Sur le lit de la rivière des Outaouais, on trouve des stromatolites là où affleurent des calcaires et où l’eau favorise la précipitation de carbonate ; ces formations, d’intérêt scientifique et patrimonial, nécessitent protection contre le dragage, la pollution et l’achalandage nautique.
Stromatolites are rock structures formed by microbial communities (mainly cyanobacteria) that trap and cement sediments into layers. They are among the oldest evidence of life on Earth.
In the Ottawa River, stromatolites are found where limestone outcrops and where the water promotes carbonate precipitation; these formations, of scientific and heritage interest, require protection from dredging, pollution, and boat traffic.

A serie of photos I made during a workshop on architecture photography by the guys from The Map Project.
Pilze, und in diesem Fall meine ich in erster Linie die Großpilze, lassen sich auf unterschiedliche Weise in Szene setzen. Man kann sie mit einer längeren Brennweite vom Hintergrund loslösen und so die Aufmerksamkeit ausschließlich auf den Pilz und seine Strukturen und Farben legen. Man kann aber auch mit einer kürzeren Brennweite den Pilz in seinem Waldumfeld abbilden. Nun spielt er zwar immer noch die Hauptrolle, ist aber Teil einer Gesamtkomposition geworden. Letzteres habe ich mit dieser Aufnahme versucht. Zum Einsatz kam eine 22mm Festbrennweite, die am Canon APS-C Sensor 35mm KB entspricht.
Mushrooms, and in this case I primarily mean large mushrooms, can be presented in different ways. You can separate them from the background with a longer focal length and thus focus exclusively on the mushroom and its structures and colors. But you can also use a shorter focal length to image the mushroom in its forest environment. Now he still plays the main role, but has become part of an overall composition. I tried the latter with this recording. A 22mm fixed focal length was used, which corresponds to 35mm KB on the Canon APS-C sensor.
The Meyerson Symphony Center, KPMG Plaza at HALL Arts and the Dallas Arts Tower (formerly Chase Tower) are just a few of the structures in the Dallas Arts District.

These sorts of driftwood/branch structures always make me uneasy when I find them out wandering. I don't know why, perhaps it is because I think the maker is observing me. Focus is a bit softer than I would like, but overall, I think a good composition and the tones work for me.

Avec sa courbe spectaculaire et sa structure typique des années 20, ce magnifique escalier patrimonial situé au Printemps Haussmann qui répondent aux lignes rationnelles de l’Art déco
Il est né en pleines Années Folles, entre 1922 et 1924 sous la direction de l’architecte Georges Wybo
Il a été érigé 60 ans après la création du Grand Magasin à la suite des incendies des Nouveaux Magasins Printemps Haussmann de 1921
Après une restauration minutieuse, faisant suite à une fermeture de près de 40 ans, il retrouve un rôle d’honneur au Printemps Haussmann,
C’est la seule structure du Printemps Haussmann en béton armé.
Elle est unique dans le magasin et offre une grande légèreté grâce à la succession de miroirs le long des murs latéraux.
L'escalier flottant : Il se caractérise par l'absence de points d'appui visibles. Les rampes sont délimitées par des ferronneries aux motifs géométriques courant au centre de la cage.
La rambarde en forme de P : Cette caractéristique souligne l'attachement du Printemps à son identité et s'inscrit dans une approche moderne de la mise en valeur
With its spectacular curve and its typical structure of the 20s, this magnificent heritage staircase located at Printemps Haussmann that responds to the rational lines of Art Deco It was born in the middle of the Roaring Twenties, between 1922 and 1924 under the direction of the architect Georges Wybo It was erected 60 years after the creation of the Department Store following the fires of the New Printemps Haussmann Stores in 1921 After a meticulous restoration, following a closure of nearly 40 years, it returns to an honorary role at the Printemps Haussmann, It is the only structure of the Printemps Haussmann in reinforced concrete. It is unique in the store and offers great lightness thanks to the succession of mirrors along the side walls.
The floating staircase: It is characterized by the absence of visible support points. The ramps are delimited by metalwork with geometric patterns running through the centre of the cage.
The P-shaped railing: This feature underlines Printemps' attachment to its identity and is part of a modern approach to showcasing its heritage
Applying rules set forth by Stephen Shore I stood there for quite a while structuring this seemingly simple scene.
Rule; utilize all the elements at your disposal when creating your picture.
Those arguably irritating electric wires define the space and add to the depth of this scene. Also they work so nicely with that furrow in the foreground.
Thank you for your visit
PLEASE, no multi invitations, glitters or self promotion in your comments. My photos are FREE for anyone to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

Structure of the well known Olympic roof at the Olympic park in Munich, Germany. This is on the way to the former Olympic Village in the north of the park.
Mary Tyler Moored passing had me going through shots I took in Minneapolis a few years ago. We can now say she quietly and indelibly influenced women's rights.
Apparently structural engineer Joaquim Cardozo altered Oscar Niemeyer's original design, reducing the number of columns, slimmed down at both top and bottom, just touching the ground.
Literally set among the suggestive rocks of the Lucanian Dolomites , Castelmezzano , in the province of Potenza , is one of the most precious jewels of Basilicata . Its perched houses reminiscent of a crib , the rugged peaks that frame it, the small alleys and stairways that run through it offer enchanting views that truly conquer everyone and give off the perfect atmosphere for a weekend of high romance . The splendid location would be enough to make the resort an ideal destination for an extremely pleasant couple's stay , but in reality Castelmezzano has much more to offer visitors in search of a romantic atmosphere.
The emotion begins to grow already along the way when, after crossing a spectacular gorge , you find yourself walking along a tunnel dug into the rock , at the exit of which the view of the village clinging to the Lucanian Dolomites reaches straight to the heart, giving you immediately the impression of being in the right place with the right person. The shapes of the rocky peaks and their play of lights and shadows explain their evocative names, ranging from "beak of vicetta" to "lion's mouth" up to "anvil" and " golden eagle" , while the historic center with its typically medieval structure, enchants with the beauty of its houses wedged between the rocks and surmounted by roofs in sandstone slabs . Walking along the narrow alleys of the historic center and climbing the small stairways, you reach magnificent panoramic points from which to enjoy a splendid view of the surrounding landscapes , in a continuous interaction between urbanized views and natural sceneries that have earned the town the nickname of the city - nature .
Furthermore, Castelmezzano is included in the list of the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy and, admiring the artistic and architectural treasures that it holds, immediately explains why. Piazza Caizzo with the splendid mother church of Santa Maria dell'Olmo is only the beginning of a magnificent itinerary dedicated to history and beauty. Walking along the main street of the town , with the Town Hall building to adorn it, you reach the ruins of the castle and, entering the streets of the center, you discover other precious buildings ranging from the elegant Palazzo Ducale to Palazzo Coiro . Going outside the town and exploring the surroundings, you will discover other enchanting surprises. The ancient mills with roofs made of local chiang chimate stone slabs dot the Caperrino valley crossed by picturesque buildings, stairways and bridges , while vestiges of distant eras peep out among the uncontaminated scenery of the Gallipoli Cognato Piccole Dolomiti Park .
