Not sure if the reflection is too busy? I also have a version where the window reflection has a little less activity

The fortifications of Xi'an, an ancient capital of China, represent one of the oldest and best preserved Chinese city walls. Construction of the first city wall of Chang'an began in 194 BCE and lasted for four years. That wall measured 25.7 kilometres (16.0 mi) in length, 12–16 metres (39–52 ft) in thickness at the base. The area within the wall was c. 36 square kilometres (14 sq mi). The existing wall was started by the Ming Dynasty in 1370. It encircles a much smaller city of 14 square kilometres (5.4 sq mi). The wall measures 13.7 kilometres (8.5 mi) in circumference, 12 metres (39 ft) in height, and 15–18 metres (49–59 ft) in thickness at the base.

The weekend's work. Along with some drawing and dishcloth-crocheting, I put in more than a few hours' work on a wall hanging. hand-embriodered (I figured out a French knot!!) and hand-quilting. I couldn't resist the sweet little birdie face ... <3!

 

Quilt pattern inspired by the beautiful work of Mle BB for the Urban Home Good swap.

Old Goguryeo city wall in Yanzhou, Liaoyang, Liaoning, China. This city is called Baegam in Korean (Hangul :백암성, ) in Chinese it was Baiyan Cheng (白岩城) or formerly Shiraiwa City. It is in present-day Dengta Prefecture in Liaoyang.

 

The city dates to 403 AD. It is built on a hillside on a bend of the Taizi River. The river has eroded the south side of the hill creating steep cliffs forming a natural defensive area. The hill itself is bowl shaped with the depression opening to the south west. Around the ridge of the bowl were built high city walls. These are made of large stones placed dry, without mortar. The walls are 2 to 3 metres wide and up to 7 metres tall. Much of the original wall is still visible today. At regular spaces along the wall, square towers jut outwards.

 

The location was the scene of a great battle during the Tang dynasty of China. The Emperor Li Shimin in 465 AD attacked the Goguryeo. He first captured the city of Liaodong (today old Liaoyang) and then this city also fell.

There are not only floor tiles, but wall tiles that are beautiful too!

20th anniversary celebrations

On November 9, 2009, Berlin will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall with a "Festival of Freedom", during which over 1,000 foam domino tiles over 8 feet tall will be stacked along the former route of the wall in the city center and toppled.

In the United States, the German Embassy is coordinating a public diplomacy campaign with the motto "Freedom Without Walls" to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The campaign is focused on promoting awareness of the fall of the Berlin Wall among current college students, and students at over 20 universities will participate in "Freedom Without Walls" events in late 2009.

Denver city was full of various lights. It was such a fun to take night shots there.

Taken at Denver, U.S.

right click, set as background tiled

both the oak and the stone wall probably date to about the 1850s or '60s, when sonoma county was first being settled -- the wall marks some old property boundary line.

 

seemed appropriate to photograph them with a 100+-year-old camera!

Strict gardeners would consider this plant as a weed and ban it, but because I am a liberal gardener and photographer, it can grow as long as it doesn't conquer the whole garden :-))

A view towards Longstone Moor from Bretton. The late evening sun highlighting the miles of drystone walls.

Something related to a railroad.

Tucked in a corner amidst a busy household...thanks for the motivation to get it cleaned up!

Details of one of the brick walls at the Colosseum. I wonder how old the inscriptions are...
