Quand j'ai rejoint Flickr en novembre 2010, je ne savais pas que ça allait devenir un divertissement quotidien et que grâce à ce média j'allais me faire de bons amis. Aujourd'hui je partage la photo de Catherine qui m'a introduit à Flickr. Evidemment nous sommes toujours en contact même si elle n'a plus le temps de partager des photos ici. J'ai eu la chance d'en rencontrer plusieurs personnes dans quelques pays comme vous avez pu le constater. Visitez la galerie de Catherine si vous le souhaitez.. Bon WE à tous. et merci de votre visite.
When I joined Flickr in November 2010, I had no idea that it was going to become daily entertainment and that thanks to this media I was going to make good friends. Today I am sharing the photo of Catherine who introduced me to Flickr. Obviously we are still in contact even if she no longer has time to share photos here. I had the chance to meet several people in a few countries as you have seen. Visit Catherine's gallery if you wish. Wishing you a very good summer WE. Thanks for your visit.

Catherine Mountain (locally called Catherine's Hill) - is named after a legendary woman named Catherine, whose ghost is said to haunt the hill.
Legend of Catherine's Ghost
Travelers who claim to have seen Catherine's ghost on the hill most commonly describe a woman approaching the traveler asking for a ride, sometimes to Bar Harbor. Catherine is said to be dressed in a light blue evening or ball gown. Travelers who decline the ghost's request suffer various consequences. Catherine was traveling on the road with her husband or boyfriend, after their wedding or prom night in Bar Harbor, when they were in some kind of accident. It is said that Catherine lost her head in the accident, that her significant other was never found, and that Catherine wanders Catherine's Hill area searching for her head and her missing love.
The book Dark Woods, Chill Waters: Ghost Tales from Down East Maine contains several variations on the legend.
The Catherine Palace is a Rococo palace located in the town of Tsarskoye Selo, 30 km south of St. Petersburg, Russia. It was the summer residence of the Russian tsars.

Der Kleine Feldberg nahe Glashütten im hessischen Hochtaunuskreis ist mit 825,2 m ü. NHN die zweithöchste Erhebung im Taunus. Je nach Interpretation ist er der zweithöchste Berg im Taunus oder aber der Zweitgipfel des höchsten, des Großen Feldbergs.
The Catherine Palace is a Rococo palace in Tsarskoye Selo (Pushkin), located 30 kilometres (19 mi) south of central St. Petersburg. It was the summer residence of the tsars. The palace is part of the World Heritage Site Saint Petersburg and Related Groups of Monuments. The display of the Catherine Palace (known until 1910 as the Great Palace of Tsarskoe Selo) covers the 300-year history of this outstanding edifice and presents the work of architects involved in its construction and decoration in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and also with the achievements of the restorers who returned the palace to life after the Second World War. Of the 58 halls destroyed during the war years, 32 have been recreated.
In 1717, while St Petersburg was being created on the banks of the Neva, the architect Johann Friedrich Braunstein started supervising the construction of the first masonry royal residence at Tsarskoe Selo that has gone down in history as “the stone chambers” of Catherine I. During the reign of Empress Elizabeth (the daughter of Peter the Great and Catherine I) in late 1742 or early 1743 it was decided to enlarge the building. From late 1748 until 1756 the construction of the Tsarskoe Selo residence was directed by Bartolomeo Francesco Rastrelli (1700–1771), the chief architect of the imperial court. On 10 May 1752 Empress Elizabeth signed a decree on the complete reconstruction of the old building and on 30 July 1756 Rastrelli was already presenting his new creation to his crowned mistress and foreign ambassadors.
The next stage in the decoration of the state rooms and living quarters came in the 1770s. The new mistress of the residence, Empress Catherine II, was fascinated with the art of the Ancient World and wanted to have her apartments finished in keeping with current tastes. She entrusted the task to the Scottish architect Charles Cameron (1743–1812), an expert on ancient architecture. The interiors that he created in the Zubov Wing and the North Part of the Palace are marked by refined beauty, austere decoration and especially exquisite finishing. In 1817, on the orders of Emperor Alexander I, the architect Vasily Stasov (1769–1848) created the State Study and a few adjoining rooms that are finished in a commons style – all these rooms were devoted to extolling the brilliant victories that the Russian army won against Napoleon in 1812 and afterwards. The last note in the symphony of palace state rooms was struck by the new Main Staircase created in 1860–63 by Ippolito Monighetti (1819–1878) in the "Second Rococo" style.
The Baroque-style palace set amidst a picturesque forested park was completed in 1725 on the orders of the Russian Emperor Peter I for Catherine I, his wife and future Empress; however, she never stayed there. At this time the palace functions as an art museum.
Дворец в стиле барокко расположен посреди живописного лесного парка. Он был построен в 1725 г. по указу императора Петра I для своей супруги и будущей императрицы Екатерины I, но она никогда в нём не жила. В наши дни во дворце располагается музей искусства.
