La Catedral Nova de Lleida o Seu Nova és l'actual seu del Bisbat de Lleida. Se situa al bell mig de la ciutat, davant de l’Antic Hospital de Santa Maria, actual seu de l'Institut d'Estudis Ilerdencs. És un elegant edifici d'estil barroc amb tendència al classicisme academicista, construït entre 1761 i 1781 per substituir la Seu Vella, que havia estat convertida en caserna. Tot i les diferents destruccions i espolis que ha patit, la Seu Nova de Lleida conserva importants conjunts artístícs i decoratius, com les pintures murals, els vitralls o els ornaments litúrgics. S'hi venera també la Mare de Déu del Blau, una imatge de l'escultor Jordi Safont (1447), restaurada el 1989 i objecte de devoció per part dels lleidatans.[1]
The New Cathedral was built bet-ween 1761 and 1781 with en-do-w-ments from the people of Lleida, King Carlos III and Bishop Joa-quín Sánchez. Built in the ba-ro-que style with hints of Fren-ch academic classicism, the main entrance is topped with the coat of arms of the Borbon fa-mi-ly.
A staircase leads to three ar-ched doorways fitted with iron gates and flanked on each side by towers. Inside, the nave and two aisles are lined with slim Corin-thian columns su-pporting roun-ded arches. The choir, crea-ted in the Baroque style by Lluís Bo-nifas Massó, was destroyed du-ring the Spanish Ci-vil War (1936).
The Cathedral houses a sculp-tu-re by Josep Obiols of Our Lady of Montserrat, the patron of Ca-talonia, whom pilgrims visit on 27 April each year. Also ce-le-bra-ted on 2 Fe-brua-ry each year is the feast of the Verge del Blau (or Bruised Virgin), named be-cau-se of the damage done when its sculptor, finding that his appren-tice had completed the work to a higher artistic stan-dard than his own, threw a ha-m-mer at the finished work.
The New Cathedral is also home to the Chapter Archive, re-garded as the richest ec-cle-sias-tical ar-chive in Catalonia, with a co-llec-tion of more than 13,000 books, 16,000 parchments and a huge number of codices and ear-ly ma-nus-cripts. One of the jewels in the collection is the Lleida Bi-ble, an historic illuminated co-dex and the largest of the an-cient Spa-nish bibles in exis-ten-ce. The-re is also a periodicals library, a music archive and a collection of maps and pho-to-gra-phs.
It teaches us to see, and we can see whatever we wish :-)

Tice's Meadow, Surrey, 22nd May 2021. This handsome chap was less than twenty feet away. We locked eyes and I enjoyed this wonderful close encounter before he turned and walked slowly away.

First Presbyterian North Pelham Church
The Presbyterian faith was brought to North Pelham by Reverend Daniel William Eastman. Beginning in 1823, he began preaching to the people of North Pelham once a month in exchange for forty bushels of marketable wheat. The congregation opened their first church some years later on June 8, 1832. It was later used as a farm building in the 20th Century.
"The present, functioning, First Presbyterian Church in North Pelham was constructed in 1870 using bricks made in the Tice Brickyards. Mr. Jacob Tice donated 25,000 bricks and charged $4.00 per thousand for the rest. The brickyard was probably on Tice Road, which runs parallel to Highway 20.

I've been researching the photographer George Tice, wow, what a talented guy. He uses a large format camera and develops his own prints, a skill I always admire.
I took this photo with my phone of one of his most famous photos seen on my laptop.

Willemswerf is an office building overlooking the Nieuwe Maas in Rotterdam. The building with its striking architecture was designed by the Amsterdam architect Wim Quist and set the tone for the building of the new Rotterdam in the late 1980s.
It has been the setting for several films. The martial arts star Jackie Chan from Hong Kong, for example, slipped from the 'cut' in the facade in his action film 'Who Am I'.

Willemswerf is een kantoorgebouw aan de Nieuwe Maas in Rotterdam. Het gebouw met zijn opvallende architectuur is ontworpen door de Amsterdamse architect Wim Quist en zette eind jaren tachtig de toon voor de bouw van het nieuwe Rotterdam.
Het is het decor geweest voor verschillende films. Zo glipte de vechtsportster Jackie Chan uit Hong Kong uit de 'snee' in de gevel in zijn actiefilm 'Who Am I'.

Seminole Gulf operates a 3 1/2 hour murder mystery dinner train 5 days a week out of Ft Myers, FL. They have this former B&O F7 on the north end. Here it is at the south end of the bridges over the Caloosahatchee River in Tice. In another post later you'll see that this is also the best way to shoot a faded out F unit with no lettering.
