The Bramante Staircase is the name given to two staircases in the Vatican Museums in the Vatican City State: the original stair, built in 1505, and a modern equivalent from 1932. The original Bramante staircase, in the Pio-Clementine Museum, was built in 1505 to a double helix design by Donato Bramante. It connects the Belvedere palace of Pope Innocent VIII to the outside and stands in a square tower of that building.

Je fais de la photographie depuis un an. Je me suis découvert une passion qui était latente depuis plusieurs années.
Cette fin de semaine, je célèbre une année d'exploration et de partage avec vous tous, membres de Flickr. Je me sens un peu comme dans un vortex depuis avril dernier. J'ai tellement à apprendre et à explorer. Je vous remercie tous et toutes pour votre amitié, commentaires et d'avoir partagé votre art. Vos talents d'artiste m'ont beaucoup inspiré. Merci infiniment.
I've been doing photography for one year now. I discovered a passion that was latent for many years.
This weekend, I'm celebrating a year of exploration and sharing with you all, Flickr members. I feel a bit like I'm in a vortex since last April. I have so much to learn and explore. Thank you all for your friendship, comments and sharing. Your artistic talents inspire me a lot. Thank you so much.
A close-up view of Energy-Matter-Space-Time by Petroc Sesti at Kistefos Museum in Norway. The rotating sculpture transforms water, light and reflections into a mesmerizing vortex of color and motion, blurring the boundary between physical reality and visual illusion. What appears solid becomes fluid, and what seems static becomes alive with movement.
Fun fact: Petroc Sesti's Energy-Matter-Space-Time is designed to interact with its surroundings, using rotation, reflections and natural light to create ever-changing visual effects. No two moments look exactly the same.

This one is for my friends Pervez, and Rick Schlamp.
This Image was taken when Air France took off for the first time with it's A380 service from San Francisco International Airport.
The jetliner had just disappeared into a fog bank over San Bruno, and I was putting the lens cap back on my camera when I suddenly saw this starting to take place.
After grabbing several shots, the plane ascended and was out of sight.
It was a good end to a long day of avoiding TSA and police as I searched for places to grab shots of Airliners taking off from this overly protected airport. A very nice end.

It was almost hypnotising taking this image. I like the reoccurring pattern.
I would kindly accept any constructive criticism regarding the lighting.

A special view of a spiral staircase inside the wonderful Melk Abbey (Stift Melk).
Enjoy.
From Wikipedia:
"Melk Abbey or Stift Melk is an Austrian Benedictine abbey, and one of the world's most famous monastic sites. It is located above the town of Melk on a rocky outcrop overlooking the river Danube in Lower Austria, adjoining the Wachau valley.
The abbey was founded in 1089 when Leopold II, Margrave of Austria gave one of his castles to Benedictine monks from Lambach Abbey. A monastic school, the Stiftsgymnasium Melk, was founded in the 12th century, and the monastic library soon became renowned for its extensive manuscript collection. The monastery's scriptorium was also a major site for the production of manuscripts. In the 15th century the abbey became the centre of the Melk Reform movement which reinvigorated the monastic life of Austria and Southern Germany."

My brother Doug and his wife Carol are visiting us from Boston. Such a treat to have them here! I likely won't be on Flickr much while they're here.
Here's an image I created from a shot I found in my Tucson archive. Taken with my first camera, a little Canon PowerShot SX230 HS. :-)
Im impressed with the D750 files, this one was a 3 stop underexposed and it still recovered details from the shadow areas.
The cold arctic air descending upon much of Canada and the northern United States this week reminds me of 1 year ago when I took this shot during the arctic vortex of 2014. This shot was taken on February 23, 2014 over downtown Calgary. The original shot I posted was in Black and White. Here is the colour version.

Can you see Jack Skellington in the vortex?
I went to Moominvalley museum store today, it is situated downstairs the city library. I had to visit the library itself too. This is the vision in stairway from Moominvalley to the library. City library building was designed by architects Raili and Reima Pietilä. Reima Pietilä's sister Tuulikki Pietilä was Tove Jansson's life partner (and she was inspiration to Too-Ticky), and her work can be seen in Moominvalley dioramas.
