This is the mountain I attempted to climb yesterday, I've climbed it many times but after less than an hour into the trek I had to return thoroughly exhausted. Very disappointed that Covid is still hampering my efforts.
Thank you so much for your kind comments and favorites
Press L and then F11 for a large view -
an absolute must to fully enjoy this picture !
you might call The Celsus Library from 2nd century AD, Efesus. Here knowledge of the known world clad in marble greek architecture represents all that we mean by Hellenism, culture and knowledge from all over the Mediterranean presented by greek catalyst .

Absolute Stille: Gerade noch Tag, fast schon Nacht - im Wunderland Tromsö.
Absolute silence: Still day, almost night - in the wonderland Tromsoe.

Norwegen / Norway - Tromsö / Tromsø
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troms%C3%B8
Tromsø ist mit 76.649 Einwohnern (Stand 1. Januar 2019) die achtgrößte Stadt Norwegens und die größte Stadt im Norden des Landes. Die Provinzverwaltung der Fylke Troms og Finnmark hat hier ebenso ihren Sitz wie der Arktische Rat.[2]
Der wichtigste Arbeitgeber ist das Universitätsklinikum in Nord-Norwegen (UNN) mit etwa 4.500 Angestellten. In Tromsø befinden sich eine Universität, die Norwegische Fischereihochschule, das Klima- und Umweltforschungszentrum Framsenteret und die Mack-Brauerei.
Geographie
Tromsø liegt 344 km Luftlinie nördlich des Polarkreises. Dies entspricht der geographischen Breite von Nord-Alaska. Tromsø beheimatet nicht nur die nördlichste Universität, sondern auch die nördlichste Kathedrale der Welt.
Tromsø ist mit einem administrativen Stadtgebiet von 2.558 km² (davon 1.434 km² auf dem Festland und 1.124 km² auf mehreren Inseln vor der Küste) die flächengrößte Stadt Norwegens.
Die Universität, der Flughafen und das Zentrum befinden sich auf der Insel Tromsøya. Zudem machen Schiffe auf der Hurtigruten im Hafen von Tromsø (UN/LOCODE NO TOS) Station.

Tromsø is a municipality in Troms og Finnmark county, Norway. The administrative centre of the municipality is the city of Tromsø.
Tromsø lies in Northern Norway. The 2,521-square-kilometre (973 sq mi) municipality is the 18th largest by area out of the 422 municipalities in Norway. Tromsø is the 9th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 71,590 (2014). The municipality's population density is 30.6 inhabitants per square kilometre (79/sq mi) and its population has increased by 15.9% over the last decade.[6][7] It is the largest urban area in Northern Norway and the third largest north of the Arctic Circle anywhere in the world (following Murmansk and Norilsk). Most of Tromsø, including the city centre, is located on the island of Tromsøya, 350 kilometres (217 mi) north of the Arctic Circle. In 2017, the city of Tromsø had a population of about 65,000 people spread out over Tromsøya and parts of Kvaløya and the mainland. Tromsøya is connected to the mainland by the Tromsø Bridge and the Tromsøysund Tunnel, and to the island of Kvaløya by the Sandnessund Bridge.
The municipality is warmer than most other places located on the same latitude, due to the warming effect of the Gulf Stream. Tromsø is even milder than places much farther south of it elsewhere in the world, such as on the Hudson Bay and in Far East Russia, with the warm-water current allowing for both relatively mild winters and tree growth in spite of its very high latitude.
The city centre of Tromsø contains the highest number of old wooden houses in Northern Norway, the oldest house dating from 1789. The city is a cultural centre for its region, with several festivals taking place in the summer. Torbjørn Brundtland and Svein Berge of the electronica duo Röyksopp and Lene Marlin grew up and started their careers in Tromsø. Noted electronic musician Geir Jenssen also hails from Tromsø.
Once buried in an urn there is nothing more left of life, but obviously posterity is a different matter.
A shrine even to Romanticists Roslin Chapel achieved world renown by the Da Vinci Code which claimed it to hold the Holy Grail and thus making a once private medieval chapel the centre of absolute legend.

1598
Muore Alfonso II, ultimo duca degli Estensi e i territori del Ducato di Ferrara passano allo Stato Pontificio. Nel frattempo il Delta del Po avanzava verso nord con rami di Tramontana, di Levante e di Scirocco.
Il Po di Tramontana, in particolare, cominciò con i suoi sedimenti ad alzare i fondali della laguna verso Chioggia.
1600-1604
Per timore che l'espansione a Nord-Est del Delta andasse ad interrare la laguna di Venezia, agli inizi del 1600 il Po fu deviato a sud verso la Sacca di Goro con un canale artificiale che è il suo letto attuale. Questo intervento detto "Taglio di Porto Viro", determinò l'inizio della formazione del Delta moderno.
Il vecchio letto divenne un canale navigabile, il Canal Bianco-Po di Levante. Se prima del 1600 il Delta si espandeva di circa 53 ettari l'anno, dal 1604 al 1840 si passò a 135 ettari l'anno.

1598
Alfonso II, the last Duke of the Este family, dies and the territories of the Duchy of Ferrara pass to the Papal State. In the meantime, the Po Delta advanced northwards with branches of Tramontana, Levante and Scirocco.
The Po di Tramontana, in particular, began with its sediments to raise the depths of the lagoon towards Chioggia.
1600-1604
For fear that the north-eastern expansion of the Delta would bury the Venice lagoon, in the early 1600s the Po was diverted south towards the Sacca di Goro with an artificial canal which is its current bed. This intervention called "Taglio di Porto Viro", determined the beginning of the formation of the modern Delta.
The old bed became a navigable canal, the Canal Bianco-Po di Levante. If before 1600 the Delta expanded by about 53 hectares a year, from 1604 to 1840 it increased to 135 hectares a year.

Absolute World is a residential condominium twin tower skyscraper complex in the five tower Absolute City Centre development in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The project was built by Fernbrook Homes and Cityzen Development Group. (From Wikipedia).
Initially, I decided to post this image sideways to show more details; however, some of you Guys, wanted to see it straight up! Here you go! Perhaps it gives you a better perspective.

Another from the holiday in Shierke, Central Germany, down by the reservoir and off into the distance was this very high rising Hot Air Balloon, and here I will admit to a slight phobia, I am really not good with heights, so I guess I will probably not ever get into one.
Though I can imagine the view must be spectacular, which would open itself to an absolute plethora of high altitude photography without the need for drones but instead to actually be there holding the camera, or in my case, holding the camera with increasingly shaky hands.
Another week ahead, I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)
Legend has it that the godess Athena threw her spear into the ground of Akropolis and out sprang the first olive tree or even the tree of life in Greek mythos. Todays tree is a later reminder and behind it the Erechteion/Erechtheum built 421 - 401 BC once containing several shrines, and later to become a Christian church. Is it possible anywhere to come closer to absolute mythos than here?
