Docks overlooking Kinvara village, County Galway, Ireland

 

Kinvara is situated in South County Galway, Ireland, just on the edge of the world renowned "Burren" on Galway Bay. Often described in tourist guides and other publications as a "Picturesque Seaside Village", this is a description that not many will argue with. I'm sure you will agree!

Le pont de Manhattan est un pont suspendu de la ville de New York au-dessus de l'East River, qui relie la partie inférieure de l'île de Manhattan à l'arrondissement de Brooklyn. Les travaux du pont commencèrent en 1901, le 31 décembre 1909, le pont fût ouvert au public, mais sa construction (d'un coût de 31 millions de dollars de l'époque) n'était pas encore achevée. Il sera complètement terminé en 1912. 

 

Le pont possède deux niveaux de circulation. Le niveau supérieur offre quatre voies pour les véhicules, deux dans chaque sens. Sur le niveau inférieur, on trouve 3 voies pour les véhicules, quatre voies ferrées pour le métro et une allée pour les piétons. À ce niveau, le sens de circulation peut être modulé selon les besoins du trafic : les trois voies dans le même sens, ou deux voies dans un sens et une à l'opposé.

The Manhattan Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the East River in New York City, connecting Lower Manhattan (at Canal Street) with Brooklyn (at Flatbush Avenue Extension). It was the last of the three suspension bridges built across the lower East River, following the Brooklyn and the Williamsburg bridges. The bridge was opened to traffic on December 31, 1909 and was designed by Leon Moisseiff, who later designed the infamous original Tacoma Narrows Bridge that opened and collapsed in 1940. It has four vehicle lanes on the upper level (split between two roadways). The lower level has three lanes, four subway tracks, a walkway and a bikeway. The upper level, originally used for streetcars, has two lanes in each direction, and the lower level is one-way and has three lanes in peak direction. It once carried New York State Route 27 and later was planned to carry Interstate 478. No tolls are charged for motor vehicles to use the Manhattan Bridge.

"... A los moros entablados

las tropas están escasas

por eso su tiempo pasa

donde se fue aventajando

cuarenta años tropiando

pa Ferrante y a Pablaza ..."

Kinvara Docks overlooking Dunguaire Castle, County Galway, Ireland

 

This was the most unexpected sunrise I’ve ever witnessed. Luck was certainly on my side this particular morning. I looked out from my motorhome window at 6.15am and seen the sun rising from behind the historic Dunguaire Castle casting this golden light across the entire bay. I wasted not a single moment and in my bed clothes I grabbed my camera, stumbled out the door half asleep and ran onto the pier to capture this image

 

This image always reminds me on why I love Landscape photography so much and why I dedicate so much time, effort and money into it..... Because moments like these are worth everything to me

Welcome to the magical world of LegOz!

 

[Built with Lego, we tried to capture the beauty of this classic movie with a mosaic and forced perspective]

 

We actually built this early on, and had hoped to save it for the final week of

Iron Builder against Tyler (Legohaulic) and Michaela (Littlehaulic) - but they have forced our hand to post it early ;) The seed part is the yellow rounded 1x2 slope, and is used in the yellow brick road, the sun, and the hot air balloon.

Thanks for viewing!

Incorporating many elements into a wide angle shot could be even more challenging than the use of a telephoto lens to isolate one element in abstract, because it is hard to crop out unwanted item, but it could be extremely satisfying if done successfully. The context it provides to the scene brings back fond memory of the original experience and allows one to discover after.

 

Can anyone help me explain the purpose of those fences ? They were kind of in the way at first when I tried to find a good spot to shoot at the scene. But looking back, the fantastic interest and perspective it offered is priceless.

We see Hotel Bellini and the vaporetto station Ferrovia

...

 

No último sábado (21/04/14), alcancei a incrível marca de 500.000 visitas no Flickr! Meio milhão!!! Isso me fez rever toda minha trajetória de aprendizado, e estou muito feliz e grato com tudo que tem acontecido! Comecei a clicar com câmeras compactas, apaixonado pelo ilimitado mundo da fotografia. Com o tempo, fui ampliando meus próprios limites e os limites das coisas com as quais trabalhava. Ampliei meus horizontes e hoje estou aqui, ainda com infinitas coisas a aprender...

 

Hoje vivemos em um tempo onde a fotografia popular é dominada pela tecnologia e seus megapixels, mas, como manter a paixão, a sensibilidade perante toda a robotização massificada que nos permeia? Como todos deveríamos saber, o mais difícil de ser adquirido é tudo aquilo que o dinheiro não pode comprar... É necessária muita dedicação, sensibilidade e responsabilidade quando se pretende registrar obras divinas, lugares e pessoas em segundos únicos e irreplicáveis. Cada instante congelado é uma máquina do tempo, uma lembrança de algo que nunca mais irá se repetir, não importa o que aconteça, cada segundo é único nos bilhões de anos do universo, e a fotografia é - para além disso -, uma forma de rever velhos átomos, de fazer memoráveis átimos voltarem à vida! Sou, a cada dia, mais apaixonado pelo que faço!

 

E você, em que está sua paixão? O que dá sentido a sua vida e faz tudo valer a pena?

In last Saturday (04/12/14), reached a awesome staggering of 500.000 hits on Flickr! Half a million!!! It made me revise my entire career learning, and I am very happy and grateful for everything that has happened! I started clicking with compact cameras, passionate with unlimited world of photography. Over time, I expanded my own limits and the limits of things that worked. Widened my horizons and I am here today, even with endless things to learn...

 

Today we live in a time where popular photography is dominated by technology and its megapixels, but, how to keep the passion, the sensitivity before all the massive robotization that permeates us? As we all should know, the most difficult to acquire is everything that money cannot buy... Are necessary a lot of dedication, sensitivity and responsibility when it intends to register divine works, places and people in unique and unrepeatable seconds. Each frozen instant is a time machine, a memory of something that will never be repeated , no matter what happens, every second is unique in the billions of years of universe, and the photography is - moreover - a way of reviewing old atoms and make memorable moments return to live! Every day I am more passionate about what I do!

  

And you? What is your passion? What gives meaning to your life and makes it all worthwhile?

The Lake Achen is a lake north of Jenbach in Tyrol, Austria. It is the largest lake of Tyrol and has a maximal depth of 133 metres. Water quality is near drinking water, with sight up to 10 m below the surface. An alpine lake, water temperature is accordingly low, rarely above 20 °C. Today turquoise blue with gentle waves, another time deeply blue and stormy. The lake is the focal point of all sides of the region. The fjord-like Achensee is accessible from all sides and well-known for its beautiful public beaches in Eben and Pertisau. Pertisau here below is located on the western banks. The main landing stage for the Achensee boat trip is situated in Pertisau. Since 1887 steamboats have connected the towns of Achenkirch, Maurach and Pertisau. Windsurfer’s colourful sails and sports such as fishing, tennis, running and Nordic Walking are some of the activities. Also scuba divers will find the perfect conditions there. Around the lake there is a lot to be explored. You can take a nostalgic ride with the oldest operating steam locomotive with a sprocket track railway. Pertisau is one of the best starting points for hikes and tours in Tyrol’s largest nature park, the Karwendel Alpine Park. Karwendel cable car takes you to the Zwölferkopf area. The area extends from 591 to 2749 metres altitude. Its surface area is made up of protected areas, landscape conservation areas and sanctuaries which are protected under the Tyrolean Nature Conservation Act. Hikers can roam through pristine valleys for hours on end with chamois and ibex; observe marmots, deer and hares, while birds of prey such as buzzards, glide through the air.

 

Our path started through woodland, and when we first came to a place with a viewpoint, it was wonderful to see how the view had opened up. But then it just got better and better as we kept on climbing, with every view more lovely than the last, so I kept on taking more and more photos! Once we reached the top, we could see right over the Achensee valley and the lake – it was really inspiring, and we spent a long time gazing before continuing our walk down through another valley. We had our lunch at the Bärenbad Alm restaurant - 1.457m. We particularly appreciated this mountain restaurant halfway our hiking.

 

Het Achenmeer is grootste meer in Tirol. Het meer ligt dertig kilometer ten noordoosten van Innsbruck, ten noorden van Jenbach dat in het Unterinntal ligt. Het meer, gelegen op een hoogte van 929 meter, heeft een oppervlakte van 6,8 km², bij een lengte van negen kilometer en een breedte van één kilometer. Op het diepste punt is het meer 133 meter diep, water temperatuur is derhalve laag, zelden boven de 20 ° C. Vandaag is het meer turquoise blauw met rustige golven, een andere keer diep blauw en stormachtig. Het water van is van uitstekende kwaliteit en is een ideale bestemming voor zeilers, surfers en kite-surfers, maar ook voor duikers en zwemmers. Het lieflijke plaatsje Pertisau met zijn rond 600 inwoners ligt aan het Achenmeer midden in een uniek landschap op de aangename hoogte van 1000m: geschapen voor de ontspanning van lijf en ziel. Maakt een tocht met de Achensee-stoomboot of kies voor een rit over de Achenseebahn met één van de laatste stoomtreinen. Rondom de Achensee ligt ongeveer 500 km aan wandelpaden, uiteenlopend van vlakke wegen voor gezinnen tot steile bergpaadjes, waaronder drie etappes van de bekendste lange-afstandswandelroute van Tirol: de Adelaarsweg. De Rofanseilbahn en de Karwendel-Bergbahnen brengen je comfortabel en snel naar de top. Op de wandelkaarten van Pertisau am Achensee staan verschillende wandelroutes. Van vlakke routes rond het meer tot tochten door de bergen waar flink bij geklommen moet worden. De wandelpaadjes kronkelen door het Karwendel- en Rofangebergte. Onderweg worden steeds weer prachtige uitzichten op de Achensee geboden.

Sunset, cold , ice and snow on the Atlantic in Gaspesie, Quebec, Canada

The Tower of Hercules is the only Roman lighthouse which, since its origins up to the present, has been performing its original function: being an aid to navigation for ships crossing the Atlantic corridor. This peculiarity makes it an outstanding exponent which bears a unique testimony to the numerous lighthouses erected by civilisations of the past by the sea and which have unfortunately been lost to time, while the Tower of Hercules remains faithful to its mission of guiding the seamen who come face to face with the immensity of the ocean on a daily basis.

 

The lighthouse was most likely built in the second half of the 1st century or the early years of the 2nd century A.D. by the Romans at finis terrae (Latin for ‘end of the world’) of the world known, namely, north-western Hispania, at the mouth of the great Gulf of Artabro, which encompasses the rias of El Burgo, Ares and Ferrol (A Coruña, Spain) to guide the ships sailing along the most western coast of the Empire. The location chosen to build it was a rocky hillock, known as Punta Eiras, some 57 metres high, which is between Punta Herminia and Punta del Orzán, thus dominating the northern end of the peninsula on which the city of A Coruña itself rises.

 

This unique construction has a rectangular plan, each side of it measuring approximately 11.75 metres and a total height of 55 metres, of which 34.38 m correspond to the Roman building and 21 to the restoration made in 1789 to modernize the aid to navigation system. Nowadays, the Tower rises on a wide polygonal platform 32.40 metres wide, which is its base. This platform was built in early 19th century. On the outside, the monument has a prismatic structure topped by an octagonal towered section with triangular reinforcement at the corners, thus softening the square plan. This first towered section is followed by another, shorter one which is the base of the lantern where the powerful beacon that lights intrepid seamen is.

___________________________________________________________

La Torre de Hércules es el único faro romano que desde sus orígenes hasta la actualidad ha cumplido con su función primigenia: la de servir de señal marítima e instrumento de navegación para las embarcaciones que en su singladura atraviesan el corredor atlántico. Esta particularidad lo convierte en un ejemplo excepcional como testimonio único de los numerosos faros que las civilizaciones del pasado construyeron a orillas del mar y que, desgraciadamente, se han perdido en el devenir de la historia, mientras que la Torre de Hércules continua cumpliendo con la misión de orientar y dirigir a los hombres del mar que se enfrentan diariamente con la inmensidad del océano.

 

El faro fue construido con toda probabilidad en la segunda mitad del siglo I o en los primeros años del siglo II d. C. por el Imperio romano en el finis terrae del mundo conocido, es decir, en el noroeste de Hispania, en la entrada del gran Golfo Ártabro que comprende las rías del Burgo, Ares y Ferrol (A Coruña. España), para acompañar a los barcos que bordeaban el extremo más occidental del Imperio. El lugar elegido para su emplazamiento fue una loma rocosa, denominada Punta Eiras, de casi 57 metros de altura, que se encuentra entre Punta Herminia y Punta del Orzán, dominando el extremo septentrional de la península en la que se asienta la propia ciudad de A Coruña.

 

Esta singular construcción es de planta cuadrangular de aproximadamente 11,75 m de lado y presenta una altura total de 55 m, de los cuales 34,38 m corresponden a la fábrica romana y 21 m a la restauración realizada en 1789 para modernizar el sistema de señalización marítima. En la actualidad la Torre se levanta sobre una amplia plataforma poligonal de 32,40 m de ancho, que le sirve de base y que fue construida a principios del siglo XIX. Exteriormente, el monumento presenta una estructura prismática sobre la que se dispone un remate torreado octogonal con refuerzos de sección triangular en las esquinas, que suaviza el arranque de la base cuadrada. A este primer cuerpo torreado le sucede otro, decreciente en altura, que sirve de base a la linterna en la que se encuentra la potente lámpara que ilumina con su luz a los intrépidos navegantes.

Taken on a merciful (though brief) break from a day of terrible weather! In this shot, it is still Winter, but there are signs of Spring and new life. We returned to Glencoe a couple of days after this was taken, the snow in the foreground had melted, and you could see new growth on the river banks. After a bleak and strange Winter, Spring comes as a relief!

One of the oldest homes in the Louisiana Purchase, Destrehan was constructed beginning in 1787 and completed in 1790. Robin de Logny contracted with a free man of color, Charles Pacquet, to build the house and outbuildings to support his indigo plantation. Pacquet was given the use of six slaves to build the house. He was paid the grand sum of "one brute negro," a cow and a calf, 100 bushels of both corn and rice, and $100 in cash upon completion. This building contract, still on file at the parish courthouse in Hahnville, LA, makes Destrehan Plantation the oldest documented house in the Lower Mississippi Valley.

I have some loquat trees in my back yard in Central Florida, USA. During late winter and early spring, the Cedar Waxwings come in large numbers to eat the fruit. I have seen over 200 in my yard in the past few weeks. The waxy red tips on the wings identify this bird as an adult.

 

This was taken out an open bedroom window from about 15 feet away.

The basilica of the "Annunciation" is located in Esslingen (southern Germany next to Stuttgart). It is the largest Greek Orthodox church in Europe outside Greece.

 

The three-aisled basilica was completed in 1995. The massive concrete structure was elaborately revetted and painted in a classic, orthodox manner.

 

For the Greek Orthodox faithful of Esslingen, the basilica is more than just a religious place. Here, the Greek life takes place, the church means their home.

Taken after the sunset on a windy and freezing day in Gaspesie, Quebec, Canada. Temperature was around -25 Celcius, but only god knows the windchill factor. By the way, a project might be on it's way to save this lighthouse by restoring it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed :)

 

Cap d’Espoir, a promontory at the north-east entrance to Chaleur Bay, Gaspesie, Canada, was noted on English charts and even by the Department of Marine as “Cape Despair,” a phontic sounding of the French name, which is totally opposite of its translation, “Cape of Hope.”

 

This Canadian lighthouse was proposed as early as 1868 to enable the fishermen, when coming from Miscou Bank in thick weather, to find safe harbour. Parliament voted $1,000 in 1871 for a lighthouse on the cape, but the funds were deemed insufficient, and construction was delayed until a sufficient additional sum could be obtained to build and equip a good sea light.

 

You can rent 2 houses on this site in winter, spring, fall and summer. It's well worth it. Capdespoir, Quebec, Canada

La Giralda, view from : Plaza del Triunfo

La Giralda :

It is the symbol of Seville.

It was built in 1198 at the request of the Almohad caliph Abu Yusuf Yaqub al-Mansur to be the minaret of the mosque called Dhem Mukyarriml.

The Giralda is the same as the other two minarets: the Hassan Tower in Rabat and the Kutubiyya (Koutoubia) in Marrakech. These three towers are the group of "Three Sisters".

The total height of the Giralda from the sidewalk until the vane is 97 meters.
