I learn something every day. Today I discovered the Dutch Angle, the name if not the approach. So this is my daily challenge shot for Dutch angle - the sliding door to our balcony.
Although not a "people" card this photo puts the other Angles Hotel cards into perspective.

We now can see where this hotel was and if you look at the Streetview link below it is likely that the original building is still there today. As you will see, some pesky coaches are obscuring the front of some hotels but the buildings look to originate from this era and earlier.

This advertising postcard was sent through the mail on 3rd October 1924
This card if not in the best of condition as you can see from the scan but I am glad I have it.
SITRA is short for Saelens International Transport.
Note the edging strip applied to the outer edge of the door.
The possibilities of right angle weave are endless - which is my excuse for finishing a cuff and going right on working until I'd embellished both sides and made it completely reversible.

Toen Adriiiii en ik deze aan het spotte waren, probeerde ik vanop een vensterbank een foto te maken. De eigenaar van het pand zag dit en bracht ons spontaan een ladder, zodat we zijn vensterbank niet meer hoefden te gebruiken. Dit opende nieuwe mogelijkheden...Nogmaals dank aan deze vriendelijke man! Xp
En un moment indeterminat anterior al segle XIII, el primer edifici de la rectoria es va construir de manera aïllada al costat oest de l'església romànica. Amb el pas del temps i com a conseqüència de successives ampliacions, la casa acaba adossant-se al mur oest de l'església. Actualment, és un edifici de planta quadrangular, compost de planta baixa, pis i golfes, la façana principal està orientada al sud on hi ha un portal d'arc rodó, un rellotge de sol i una galeria superior amb arcades. Una passejada per l'interior de la rectoria permet veure algunes restes de l'antiga església romànica, ja que s'ha restaurat perquè siguin visibles.
El primer document on surt referenciada l'església data de l'any 945, en l'acta de fundació del monestir de Santa Cecília de Montserrat, on Riquilda, comtessa de Barcelona i esposa del comte Sunyer, llega a aquest cenobi l'església de Sant Llorenç d'Hortons, situada al terme de Gelida, amb el seu cementiri i sagrera. El monestir montserratí posseïa altres alous a Hortons, com el de Sorba, donat pel monjo Geldemir l'any 978. En un plet entre el senyor Umbert de Gelida i els habitants de l'alou de Sorba, es denuncià que Umbert obligava l'església de Sant Llorenç d'Hortons a lliurar-li una lliura de cera. Es va dictaminar que a partir d'aquell dia la cera havia de ser donada al monestir de Santa Cecília per la seva festivitat. L'actual església i l'ampliació de la rectoria responen a unes reformes del segle XIX.

Descripció:
Església d'una nau rectangular, neoclàssica amb absis i campanar. Conté cinc altars, dos d'ells antics de guix, (el major antic de guix i la capella del Santíssim també antiga de guix i fusta i sostre amb voltes motllurades). Una bona part de la paret de migdia s'aguanta sobre la primitiva església romànica que fou trobada el setembre del 1977, i on es trobà també la portalada principal de grans dovelles amb motllura, una finestra de la mateixa època i restes de la possible primera pica baptismal. Aquesta pica té forma troncocònica amb lateral concavats i degut el seu estat és difícil d'apreciar si té decoració. A l'obra neoclàssica, s'hi aprecia una gran quantitat de pedres del temple romànic, perfectament carejades com les existents als murs romànics repicats el 1977. Annex existeix l'antiga Rectoria, ampli casal a dues vessants de planta, un pis i golfes d'arquets edificat en diferents èpoques, de molta personalitat: sostres de volta catalana gran sala repartidora on es guarden l'arxiu parroquial des del 1520 i documentació anterior del 1300, com també una trentena de pergamins.
Notícies històriques
A l'any 945, Riquilda, Comtessa de Barcelona i muller del Comte Sunyer, fill de Guifré I, el darrer comte investit pel rei franc, a precs de l'Abat Cesari, enceta un lot de donacions amb les quals s'afermarà el seu monestir de Santa Cecília de Montserrat. En aquest pergamí s'esmenta documentalment per primera vegada el terme de Gelida i l'església de Sant Llorenç d'Hortons, que és donada al Monestir amb el seu cementiri i sagrera (Jaume Pasqual: Sacrae Antiquitatits Cataloniae Monumenta, m. 729, vol. III de la Biblioteca de Catalunya, a Barcelona). Pica Baptismal. Aquesta pica fou trobada recentment en unes obres de recuperació de les parets romàniques de l'antiga església. La meitat que queda està encastada en un angle format per la part exterior del mur romànic i una paret moderna de l'actual sagristia. Sembla que aquest recinte havia servit de quadra, i que la pica, tal vegada, s'utilitzava per abeurador o sitja.

Two curved trusses form a suspension foot bridge across the Ohio & Erie Canal in Canal Fulton, Ohio USA.
A bit of research reveals that this bridge is a "bowstring truss" style and was built in the late 1870's.
This is a fake IR effect using a filter in PSE7 plus the sepia effect.
A series of photos enjoying the peaceful surroundings a hundred foot up overlooking Harrow on the Hill.
The sky was clear and the moon was shinning brightly. No better time than now then. When scaling the entry point I managed a rather ungraceful landing into the site, nevertheless, successful entry.
A few flights of stairs and an eerie explore around the huge floor levels, warning signs, metal objects to trip over, web- like scaffolding throughout, we then came to a couple of ladders taking us to the roof top.
The site was serene with 3 large cranes in front of us lit up by the full moon.

Nikon D810 HDR Photos Window Rock on Pfeiffer Beach Big Sur Sunset Sea Cave Sunset, Dr. Elliot McGucken Fine Art Photography! 14-24mm Nikkor Wide Angle F/2.8 Lens!

Fine Art Landscape & Nature Photography for Los Angeles Gallery Show !
Will be busy printing and framing in nice large, matted formats and frames and museum glass! Five of these photos will be printed on 40" x 60" floating wall mounted metal sheets! I think I know which--will share photos of the photos hanging on the walls!
And I am mounting some on plexiglass/acryllic--front mounting them! Some I am printing on lossy fuji-crystal archival paper too, and then front mounting 40"x60" versions to plexiglass--will send photos!
The secret to HDR photography is that you want people to say, "Woe dude--that's unreal!" And not, "Dude--that's not real!" "Unreal" is the word they use when they're trying to figure out the photo--what makes it cool--is it a photo? Is it painted? How'd it come to be--how'd you bend the light that way? "That's not real," is what they say if you have the saturation/HDR/ etc. turned up too high. :)
Some (almost) final edits for my Los Angeles Gallery Show! Printing them on metallic paper at 13" x 19" and mounting and framing them on a 4mm 18x24 white mat and 2" dark wood frame. Also printing some 40" x 70" which is over three feet by five feet! Wish you all could come (and hang out with the goddesses)!
Let me know your favs.!

Homer's Odyssey: Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide. . . Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; --Homer's Odyssey translated by Samuel Butler
