Venice (Italian: Venezia [veˈnɛttsja] ( listen), Venetian: Venesia) is a city in northern Italy known both for tourism and for industry, and is the capital of the region Veneto, with a population of about 272,000 (census estimate 1 January 2004). Together with Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area (population 1,600,000).
The name is derived from the ancient tribe of Veneti that inhabited the region in Roman times.[1][2] The city historically was the capital of an independent city-state. Venice has been known as the "La Dominante", "Serenissima", "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Masks", "City of Bridges", "The Floating City", and "City of Canals". Luigi Barzini, writing in The New York Times, described it as "undoubtedly the most beautiful city built by man".[3] Venice has also been described by the Times Online as being one of Europe's most romantic cities.[4]
The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune of Venezia; around 60,000[5] in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico); 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), mostly in the large frazioni of Mestre and Marghera; and 31,000 live on other islands in the lagoon.
The Republic of Venice was a major maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as a very important center of commerce (especially silk, grain and spice trade) and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century. This made Venice a wealthy city throughout most of its history.[6] It is also known for its several important artistic movements, especially the Renaissance period. Venice has played an important role in the history of symphonic and operatic music, and it is the birthplace of Antonio Vivaldi.

Uno de mis primeros trabajos con flores en modo macro. Utilizé un tele y
una abertura de diafragma grande, para desenfocar el fondo, y dar interés
en el primer plano.
Esta imagen me inspiró en la creación de mi primer grupo de flores:

As much as I love shooting with my Pentax K10D it isn't practical to carry to/from work everyday given that its a full-sized semi-pro dSLR camera. So bought a tiny Canon IXY 910IS digital camera as my cameraphone, while handy, doesn't quite cut it as a serious camera for shots around Tokyo.
Non-HDR 1xp shot taken from the 36th floor of the ANA hotel, shortly after drinks with some co-workers, looking towards the Tokyo Midtown development on the right and Roppongi Hills on the left (where my earlier shot of the Tokyo Nightscape was taken).
Tokyo, Japan.

The internationally famous island of Sipadan lies five degrees north of the equator in the Sulawesi Sea. Lying 35km south of Semporna, on Sabah's mainland, like many tropical island it is thickly forested and surrounded by sandy beaches. Sipadan is an oceanic island and was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct undersea volcano, which rises 600m from the seabed.

365 Project Day 15
A Flickrmeet at Chatsworth House. Arrived early and had a wander through the estate and met up with some cows. Jon Bradbury can be seen in the background photographing his model ;)
I did get my lens licked while taking these photos and it steamed up a few times when they breathed out on it - they need to be very close to get this kind of wide angle distortion.
not sure that those stairways goes to heaven....
A great week-end to all :-)

Thank you very much to all of you my dear Flickr friends for your so kind comments!
Do you see the big heart reflection of my wild river in the bottom? When she saw these three hommages she became red and made a big wave to design a big heart for imTulips, Maureen F. and Antonio Costa…!!! :))) You’ll find their pieces of art here :

“Athens, the eye of Greece, mother of arts / And eloquence.”
(John Milton).
I haven't been around much lately cause I am busy with my studies but here is a shot of my recent trip to Athens!! I'll be back soon!! ;)
You can see some of my previous shots from Athens here:
The Parthenon here and here, Hepheastus temple here, Zappeio Hall here, Stoa Attalou here, Olympeion here, and the Erechtheum, which is one of my most popular shots and the one with the most views, here.
De Haan - West Flanders - Belgium.
This coastal resort has maintained a low skyline so its many villas in ' Belle Epoque' ( french-beautiful age) delights the eye.
Even today there are no high-rise buildings here.
Its most famous resident was Albert Einstein who lived there in 1933.
Population 11,900.
Many grateful thanks to all my contacts , friends & all flickr members for their continued support , that this image has made Explore. Truly appreciated. So, thanks to ALL . Thank You EVERYONE .
Ecco come mi si è presentato il cratere di Sud-Est la mattina del 16 novembre 2006. Una serie continua di forti esplosioni hanno portato al collasso del fianco orientale del cratere. La lava si andava a riversare verso la Valle del Bove passando per la depressione appena creatasi formando delle vere e proprie cascate.
This is how the south east crater appeared on the 16th november 2006. Due to the strong explosions the eastern flank of the crater collapsed letting the lava flows go toward the Bove Valley. On its route to the valley the lava flows created some rapids.
A little of capitalism theme going on here. The building in the foreground is the San Francisco Mint. Followed by a Bank of America branch in the middle. The Port of Oakland in the background. Last but not least, the ultimate symbol of modern capitalism, a skyscraper condominium. In this case it's the sleek and modern One Rincon Hill.
