🇫🇷 Ils étaient deux juchés sur cette balustrade, un seul avait eu le plaisir de vous rendre visite sur Flickr..... C'est maintenant réparé...d'autant plus qu"afin de me donner le temps de faire le tri dans les photos ramenées , je vais reprendre la mise en ligne des photos prises en Corse, mais maintenant de la 2° semaine entre Porto et Ajaccio .........avant celles du Costa Rica
Il va falloir un peu de temps pour que tous ces animaux des tropiques s'accoutument au climat européen.....Un rude choc thermique pour nous aussi à Orly ..... de 30° le jeudi à Manuel Antonio aux quelques tout petits degrés positifs du vendredi..... dans le vent....
🇬🇧 They were two perches on this railing, only one had had the pleasure of visiting you on Flickr..... It is now repaired...all the more so that "in order to give me the time to sort out the photos brought back, I will resume posting the photos taken in Corsica, but now from the 2° week between Porto and Ajaccio ......
It will take some time for all these tropical animals to get used to the European climate..... A severe thermal shock for us too in Orly ..... from 30° on Thursday to Manuel Antonio at the very small positive degrees of Friday..... in the wind....

On a walk through the forest I found today this leafs lying on a balustrade.
No I'm not a connoisseur of staircases or balustrades but even I thought that the number of spindles in this Croydon outdoor staircase was a little excessive.

This black and white photograph shows two men walking up the stairs inside the Iowa State Capitol. I am not really into politics, but our State Capitol is a great place of get some cool photos of architecture and people. All the different lights can cause some weird optics, but it’s worth a few clicks.

La Piramide, known as the Temple of Kukulcan, is a Mesoamerican step-pyramid that dominates the center of the Chichen Itza archaeological site in the Mexican state of Yucatan. Built by the pre-Columbian Maya civilization sometime between the 8th and 12th centuries AD, the pyramid served as a temple to the deity Kukulcan. The pyramid consists of a series of square terraces with stairways up each of the four sides to the temple on top. Sculptures of plumed serpents run down the sides of the northern balustrade.
Human sacrifice, a feature of all Meso-American and Andean religions, has often given rise to the portrayal of the American civilizations as particularly cruel and backward, and it has to be admitted that the practice is so alien to our way of thinking that an objective assessment is very difficult. Blood was viewed as a potent source of nourishment for the Maya deities, and the sacrifice of a living creature was a powerful blood offering. By extension, the sacrifice of human life was the ultimate offering of blood to the gods, and the most important Maya rituals culminated in human sacrifice. Heart extractions and sacrifice have been viewed as a supreme religious expression among the ancient Maya". The removal of the still-beating heart, or sometimes self-immolation was considered a great offering and meal for the gods.

This photo was taken on the Terrazza Mascagni, a famous promenade in Livorno on the Tuscan coast. The balustrades (whose shadows we can see) separate the promenade from the sea.

Caparica was once a settlement of fishermen. And fishery still plays a small part in the economy of the town. But tourism / the leisure industry took over. Thie façade of this apartment building is something between neo-modernist and postmodernist. It's is possibly a referral to the artisanal past of the town: the wicker baskets, the nets.

Front entrance to Skirwith Abbey.
The Abbey in the village of Skirwith in Cumbria, England, UK is a two storey Classical house of five by three bays, built by Thomas Addison, mason, in 1768-74 for John Orfeur Yates, who spent many years in India. The main front has more closely spaced windows in the centre; and the centre and angles are also defined by differences in the ashlar stonework. The front door is approached by a splayed, balustraded staircase carried on a bridge over the wide area that encircles the house. The rear of the house is similar, and both sides have a canted full-height bay window in the centre. Except on the entrance front, the area is surrounded by cast iron railings with obelisk standards.--Wikipedia
