Another “Eastern Front Oddity”, a captured Russian BA-10M armored car modified with a German Panzer-II turret.
Whilst having a cheaky morning coffee I decided to try out a little street photography and snap some people walking past this graffitte wall. Opting to keep the motion blur to keep the motion in the image.
Captured bubbles in the blue bottle.

Two beautiful peacock blue pearls are captured within each handmade copper link. Each link hangs from a sterling silver ear wire. The metals have been oxidized and buffed to expose a soft shine.
Had very little time for the camera this weekend, national beach cleanup day on Saturday (result in the comments) and wind and rain today so I am posting a shot from a few weeks ago. This was taken during my walk back from shooting the sunset at the end of Godøy, saw this scene and couldn´t resist one more shot. As soon as the shutter closed, a wave came over and soaked me and the camera (the camera was protected with a cover). This made attempting another shot seem undesirable so packed and left without checking the result but looking them over the next day was quite happy with this.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Viewing on black is a must so hit that L.

The Capture of Carthage
1725-29
Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (Italian, Venetian, 1696-1770)
Oil on canvas; Irregular painted surface, 162 x 148 3/8 in. (411.5 x 376.9 cm)
Inscribed (left, on standard): SPQR
The subject of this picture has been variously identified. It seems to show the capture of Carthage by Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus (later known as Scipio Africanus the Younger) in 146 B.C., a momentous event that definitively ended the power of Carthage. The carnage was unspeakable, and the city burned for seventeen days.
The picturea masterpiece of Tiepolo's early maturityis from a series of ten canvases painted about 172529 to decorate the main room of the Ca' Dolfin, Venice. The event probably carried an allusion to the recent campaigns of the Venetians against the Turks in the Mediterranean and the military participation of Daniele Dolfin.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's permanent collection contains more than two million works of art from around the world. It opened its doors on February 20, 1872, housed in a building located at 681 Fifth Avenue in New York City. Under their guidance of John Taylor Johnston and George Palmer Putnam, the Met's holdings, initially consisting of a Roman stone sarcophagus and 174 mostly European paintings, quickly outgrew the available space. In 1873, occasioned by the Met's purchase of the Cesnola Collection of Cypriot antiquities, the museum decamped from Fifth Avenue and took up residence at the Douglas Mansion on West 14th Street. However, these new accommodations were temporary; after negotiations with the city of New York, the Met acquired land on the east side of Central Park, where it built its permanent home, a red-brick Gothic Revival stone "mausoleum" designed by American architects Calvert Vaux and Jacob Wrey Mold. As of 2006, the Met measures almost a quarter mile long and occupies more than two million square feet, more than 20 times the size of the original 1880 building.
In 2007, the Metropolitan Museum of Art was ranked #17 on the AIA 150 America's Favorite Architecture list.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was designated a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1967. The interior was designated in 1977.
