Not part of P/365 I'm displaying this for Larry to illustrate what I had done a year earlier with a lesser camera.
The amazing structure inside the Belfry (Halletoren) in Brugge. This medieval bell tower was originally built in 1240 but burnt down in 1280 before being rebuilt. The octagonal upper stage of the belfry was added between 1483 and 1487. On the right hand side you can see the stairwell, leading ever higher. The image is taken on the second floor.

Title Bagh-e Fin
Other title Bagh-i Fin; Fin Garden
Date 1571-1629 (construction) 1797-1834 (reconstruction)
Current location Kashan, Esfahan, Iran
Description of work The Bagh-e Fin was developed during the reign of the Safavid ruler Shah Abbas I (1571-1629) on the route to his new capital at Isfahan. Contained within massive enclosure walls and laid out on a series of low terraces, the garden follows a quadripartite chahar bagh scheme divided by the crossing of two watercourses which also line the perimeter of the garden. The crossing is marked by a two-story pavilion, while garden spaces and pathways fill the space. An additional watercourse, running adjacent to the central one, emanates from a small, but elaborately painted, pool house. The paintings date to the reign of the Qajar ruler Fath Ali Shah (1797-1834), who also replaced most of the earlier buildings. The water is delivered by a qanat (underground irrigation canal) and is forced through numerous fountains by gravity. Various hammams (bathhouses), residences, and a museum line the sides. It was declared a national monument in 1935 and has since undergone extensive repairs. (Sources: Hobhouse, Penelope. Gardens of Persia. Kales Press, 2004; Faghih, Nasrine and Amin Sadeghy.

Located by the main entrance to the Sacramento State campus, Parking Structure 5 is designed to blend and complement the dense trees of the nearby arboretum. Replacing an existing surface lot, the 1,750 stall, six-level parking structure serves a campus in dire need of parking, and provides a structure exceeding the quality and efficiency of any of the previous parking facilities.
The structure’s skin creates a dialog with the surrounding trees. Combined with columnar trees, the facade is dressed with vertical fins painted in tints of green. The thousands of individual square fins are a digital representation of nature, and form patterns like leaves of a tree canopy overhead. Covering the three upper levels of the structure, precast concrete is textured with a pattern that nods to the rough bark of the birch trees in the adjacent arboretum.
Serving a sizable percentage of the campus’ parking need, automobile circulation is designed to move traffic into the structure as efficiently as possible with queuing space off-street to handle periods of high volume. Taking advantage of Clark Pacific’s Total Precast architectural concrete system, the design quality and level of material finish is second to none. Because of the increased erection speed possible with the precast solution, the overall project schedule was more aggressive and intended to be complete over a single school semester.
The technology, design, innovations, placemaking and conservation programs implemented at Parking Structure 5 allow it to achieve a Parksmart Gold certification by the Green Building Certification Institute for the U.S. Green Building Council, making it the highest-performing, most-sustainable parking structure on campus.

The Queen's Chapel of St John the Baptist in the Precinct of the Savoy, also known as the Queen's Chapel of the Savoy, is a church in the City of Westminster, London.
The Chapel is the last surviving building of a hospital founded by Henry VII for homeless people, the construction of which was completed in 1512 a few years after his death. It stands on the area of London known as the Savoy.
The Chapel belongs to Her Majesty The Queen in Her Right as Duke of Lancaster. It is a ‘free’ chapel or ‘peculiar’.
In 2016, the Duchy of Lancaster agreed to the incorporation of the management of ecclesiastical matters at the Chapel into the Ecclesiastical Household under the oversight of the Dean. This new arrangement mirrors the relationship between the Historic Royal Palaces and the Chapels at the Tower of London and Hampton Court Palace, bringing all Her Majesty’s Chapels in London under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Dean.
The Chapel remains an important part of the Savoy Estate, the Duchy of Lancaster’s principal London land holding. It continues to provide spiritual service to the community, as it has done for nearly 500 years.
The Queen’s Chapel of the Savoy is also the chapel of the Royal Victorian Order, an Order of Chivalry within the Sovereign’s personal gift. By The Queen’s appointment, the present Chaplain is also Chaplain of the Order.
The expenses of the Chapel are borne by The Queen in Right of Her Duchy of Lancaster. Maintenance of this historic building remains the Duchy of Lancaster’s responsibility. Recent work has included the landscaping of the gardens in honour of Her Majesty’s Golden Jubilee, the restoration of the Chapel ceiling in 1999 and in 2011 improvements were made to the structure of the building in honour of Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee which included the installation of a new commemorative stained glass window.
Members of the public are most welcome to attend services in The Queen’s Chapel of the Savoy. The Chapel is open to the public from Monday to Thursday 9am to 4pm and on Sunday from 9am to 1pm.

小石头俱乐部3.0: Opening this july, the 'palaon research and experience center by zurich and berlin-based practice holzer kobler architekturen embodies a site where 300,000 year-old spears -the oldest man-made hunting weapons found to date- were found in shoningen, germany. the faceted structure features a reflective skin marked by the various cuts and seams that delineate the facade panels and mirror the hilly landscape. The experience of the exhibition is no doubt at the heart of the structure. the three-story foyer serves as a routing point for views and circulation, offering glimpses of the research facilities and exhibition spaces on the first floor and the distant coal mines. visiting the restaurant, shops, and educational areas leads one on a sequential journey through the layered building until reaching the top floors where current excavations and research can be witnessed in the laboratories integrated into the exhibition- turning the building into a real-time experience. location: paläon, forschungs- und erlebniszentrum schöninger speereopening: 24. juni 2013floor space (total): 4.090 qmfloor space exhibition: 600 qmtotal area incl. landscape: 240.000 qmclient: stadt schöningenoccupant: paläon gmbhcurator: niedersächsisches landesamt für denkmalpflegearchitecture: holzer kobler architekturen, zürich/berlin, in collaboration with pbr ag, generalplaner, braunschweiglandscape architecture: topotek 1, berlinexhibition design: holzer kobler architekturen, zürich/berlingraphic design exhibition: holzer kobler architekturen, zürich/berlingraphic production: pigmentpol sachsen gmbh, satz und reinzeichnung kerstin hübschmedia planning: jangled nerves, stuttgartlight planning: lichtvision design & engineering gmbh, berlinimplementation exhibition: seiwo technik gmbh, bel-tec gesellschaft für film-, theater-und ausstellungsbau mbhfittings exhibits: id3d-berlin gmbhartists installations: jens najewitz, stephan hüsch, misha shenbrot, alexej tchernyi, ekkehard rungeillustrations: benoit clary, wu zhio, christian meier zu ermgassen, simon schedeEdit By 小石头俱乐部 来自http://dd.mu/++q7a

My family and I were at this new park over on the Northern Side of Fort Wayne, and as we were resting under a pavillion, I looked up and saw this! Something about the water stains in the wood and the geometry of the whole structure really pulled me in. Of course, as a photographer, I ran up to my car and grabbed my camera for the perfect shot!
Thanks, have an awesome day.
***I enjoy the comments more than the awards/invites. I will reply to all comments but ignore invites/awards. thank you everyone***
Cape Hatteras Light is a lighthouse located on Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks in the town of Buxton, North Carolina and is part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. It is the tallest brick lighthouse structure in the United States and 2nd in the world
As the morning shows the day.. the Gopuram or the gate of any historical structure tells you much about what to expect inside it! Ditto the case as in Big Temple of Tanjore. Its massive, its gigantic yet provides you a glimpse of those intricate carvings and structures of architectural marvel. In its typical Dravidian style, it hosts the cultural heritage and our historic mastery of the art which is why UNESCO attributes the same as The Great Living Chola Temple!

Along Eiðsgrandi in Reykjavík, although we saw these structures in many places around the city's waterfront. They have something to do with Reykjavík's energy company.
This house along Bayou Pointe aux Chenes was designed by Mennonite missionaries to be able to withstand both the winds and storm surge of a so-called 100 year storm.
The Mennonites' approach to disaster relief (and imho a compelling one) is to show up for the first 3 months after a disaster with the purpose of instilling a sense of hope in the community. After 3 months, they leave the long term reconstruction work to others.
