Also called the Bridge of Lies is one of the first cast iron bridge to be built in Europe and the third cast iron bridge built on the territory of today's Romania and Transylvania, the first being built in 1841.
The bridge is the oldest cast iron bridge in service on the territory of Romania.
Considered to be a forged iron gem, The Bridge of Lies is one of the most important symbols of the city.
Rebuilt in 1859 (made in the Friedrich Hütte workshops) in the former location of a gate bridge belonging to the 2nd fortification wall. The initially vaulted passage used to be made through an conglomerate of buildings which had been demolished in 1851: the Town’s Scale, the selling market places belonging to the Cobblers, Shoemakers, Tailor’s, Baker’s guilds, the Milks’ Bridge, the house belonging to Baron Rosenfeld where it used to be the Law Academy, the Jikeli house with the chemist’s, the barber’s shop. In the same period the staircases on the western side of Ocnei Street were demolished.
A favorite strolling place for young couples, the bridge stands out due to its resistance pieces decorated with rosettes and a belt of elements placed in circles with decreasing sizes and adorned with vegetal and neo-gothic geometric motifs.
These bear on the southern side the coat of arms of Sibiu and on the northern side the inscriptions “1859” and “Friedrich Hütte”. The four pedestals at the extremity of the bridge, more robust and made in stone, sustain lighting devices made in cast iron. The metallic rail of the bridge consists of eight panels with circles in a gothic radial décor.
Eilhard Mitscherlich was a German chemist, who is perhaps best remembered today for his discovery of the phenomenon of crystallographic isomorphism in 1819. Seen here, marble bust of Mitscherlich by Elisabet Ney at the Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin.
Gustav Rose (March 18, 1798 - July 15, 1873) was a German mineralogist. He came from a Martian merchant and scholar family, was the son of Valentin Rose the Younger and brother of Heinrich Rose.

Macro Monday: #Danger
Width of the frame: 3 cm / 1,18 inches
Oh, how much I hate to accidentally cut myself on paper. And how much more often has that happenend compared to a knive accident in the kitchen. We are surrounded by potentially dangerous things, aren't we? And one of those things is the inconspicious paper, evil in the guise of the daily newspaper, a book, a white, empty sheet of paper, the information leaflet... Admittedly, I've slightely exaggerated the consequences here, because a "paper cut" is never that bloody, but it bloody well hurts anyway ;-)
Simple ingredients used: strip of paper (of course), placed on my semi-glossy white tile and fixated with a small piece of modelling clay (which I forgot to remove with the healing [healing!] brush, *sigh*), because the droplet of "blood" always made it fall over. The "blood" consists of water and glycerol, tinted with red watercolour. Glycerol increases the water's surface tension and helps to stabilise the droplets (thank you very much for the advice, Bine&Minka2007!). A 50-50 mixture is recommended, but you should experiment with the mixing ratio, I used a 40 (water) to 60 (glycerol) mixing ratio for this. You can also use glycerol only. Since it is a fairly greasy substance, I'd recommend to have a bottle of make-up remover at hand which works really well to clean the surfaces you've used the glycerol on.
Other uses for glycerol? On the bottle I got from my local chemist it says that fir branches and Christmas trees last longer when you add a little glycerol to the water (4 tablespoons of glycerol in 1 l of water), and it is also recommended as a frost protection agent for rubber seals of, for instance, fridge or car doors. Speaking of frost protection agent... I vaguely remember the 1985 diethylene glycol wine scandal, where Austrian wineries adulterated their wines with diethylene glycerol... but that's an altogether different matter... ;-)
A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!
Nicht von Pappe...
...sondern scharf wie ein Messer kann Papier sein. Papier war sogar das erste, das mir einfiel, als ich das neue MM-Thema erfuhr. Denn wie oft habe ich mich schon versehentlich an Papier geschnitten. Sicherlich öfter als am Küchenmesser, das man ja auch mit entsprechender Sorgfalt handhabt. Papier hingegen, das harmlose Zettelchen, Blatt, der Beipackzettel... ein unachtsamer Moment und... Autsch! Natürlich habe ich hier etwas übertrieben, denn so "blutig" ist ein Papier-Schnitt selten, aber er tut schon ziemlich gemein weh... ;-)
Den schmalen Streifen aus etwas dickerem Papier habe ich mit einem kleinen Kügelchen Knete (das ich auch noch wegzustempeln vergessen habe...) auf der matt-glänzenden Fliese befestigt, weil der "Blutstropfen" das Röllchen immer zum Überkippen brachte. Das "Blut" ist eine Mischung aus Wasser und Glycerin, gefärbt mit roter Wasserfarbe aus dem Tuschkasten. Vielen Dank übrigens an Bine&Minka2007 für den Tipp mit dem Glycerin. Christa macht ja immer die schönsten Tropfenfotos und ich hatte vor einiger Zeit mal nachgefragt, wie sie ihre Tröpfchen stabilisiert. Das recht ölige Glycerin erhöht die Oberflächenspannung des Wassers, sodass die Tropfen fester werden und länger halten. Ich habe gelesen, dass allgemein ein 50-50-Mischverhältnis empfohlen wird, aber man sollte ruhig damit experimentieren, ich hatte z.B. eine 40(Wasser)-zu-60(Glycerin)-Mischung angerührt. Man kann auch das reine Glycerin nehmen. Make-up-Entferner eignet sich übrigens vorzüglich, um das Zeug auch wieder rückstandslos zu entfernen.
Und wofür kann man Glycerin noch verwenden? Auf meinem Fläschchen aus der Apotheke las ich mit Interesse, dass Tannenzweige und der Weihnachtsbaum länger halten, wenn man 4 Esslöffel davon auf einen Liter ihres "Trink"wassers gibt. Außerdem soll es ein hervorragendes Frostschutzmittel für Gummidichtungen z.B. an Kühlschrank- oder Autotüren sein. Apropos Frostschutzmittel... Da gab es doch vor ewiger Zeit (1985, ich musste gleich mal nachschauen) diesen Weinpanscher-Skandal... aber das ist ein anderes Thema ;-)
Ich wünsche Euch eine angenehme Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
13th July 2019:
Raced off down to the chemist this morning, once I'd taken Rufus for his first prom. Graham is *very* off colour and I needed to get some meds for him. Which I hope will work.
It's a Bank Holiday weekend here and you don't want to call the Pompiers or SAMU out on any Bank Holiday ... if you can avoid it.
I'd taken my camera with me in the hope of finding something to take for today. Found that the one thing I'd liked to have taken wasn't there any more, so that blew that!
As I was taking the Snowberries, see this photo: www.flickr.com/photos/44506883@N04/48273215887/in/photost... I heard someone behind me saying that something was adorable, so checked out what it was. They were right a real cutie.
Half Chihuahua and half a good sized pony - can't remember the name of the other half, but I recall that it wasn't small. This 2 month old pup will probably end up being the size of a small Poodle.
Taken and posted with permission.
Will do my best to keep up, but Graham comes first.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
Today the Boston u3a photography group visited Alford Manor House and Museum of Rural Life. This was part of one of the displays showing bottles from local chemist shops.
before refuse collection became the norm, people who lived around here, and this goes for folks eveywhere else in the country too, picked a spot not to far from their homes to deposit all the stuff that couldn't be burned or maybe fed to chickens and pigs...living on the edge of a large piece of common land i occasionally come across such dumps especially when the rabbits have been very active as they tend to dig stuff up in their burrowing...came across one yesterday...bottles, bits of broken china, batteries and an old washing machine pump were among the stuff i found...this old bottle interested me...

This is a miniature scent bottle, shaped like an antique chemists bottle. It is approx 2.75 inches tall (including stopper) and as the stopper is removable I have part filled it with small glass beads.
The shade of blue and shape appeals to me.

They don't allow tripods in the labs so I ended up making most of my images with the iPhone on this visit.

Jeff and I decided even though the Help-portrait thing fell through, we should still get together and shoot at least. After bouncing a few ideas around we decided to do a mad scientist (or not so mad) in the chem labs way up in NSC. This is pretty sick Bigger and Blacker
The setup is pretty ridonkulous, so i'll include the setup shot in the comments

Main Street, Cobargo.
With a population of 776 Cobargo is located 386 kilometres south of Sydney on the Princess Highway.
A huge draw card to the village is its street scene which features turn of the century buildings.
In the 1860's Cobargo was known as 'The Junction' due to its location at the junction of Narira and Bredbatoura Creeks.
By 1871 a school had opened in addition to a post office, hotel, church and blacksmith shop.
In 1901 a butter factory was established and maintained production until 1980 when operations ceased.
Sadly though in the bushfires of 2019/20 parts of the main street were destroyed by the ravages of fire.
Whilst the fires destroyed building in the village it failed to destroy the spirit of Cobago and today it is very much open for business.
