The original terminal station building was constructed between 1895 and 1905 as a replacement for the first terminus of the Brussels-Mechelen-Antwerp railway. The stone-clad building was designed by Louis Delacenserie. The viaduct into the station is also a notable structure designed by local architect Jan Van Asperen. A plaque on the north wall bears the name Middenstatie, an expression now antiquated in Dutch.
The station is widely regarded as the finest example of railway architecture in Belgium.
Winter night falls soft in the warm Swedish homes where all the family gathers for Lucia. Lucia is an ancient mythical figure with an abiding role as a bearer of light in the dark Swedish winters The annual candlelit Lucia procession on 13 December is perhaps one of the more exotic-looking Swedish customs, with girls and boys clad in white full-length gowns singing songs together. (Yes, I did this with my family and we have the pics to prove)

Harpa is a concert hall and conference centre in Reykjavík. Opened in 2011, Harpa was designed by the Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects in co-operation with Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson. The structure consists of a steel framework clad with geometric shaped glass panels of different colours, which are supposed to resemble the basalt landscape of Iceland.
There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad with radiance. ~ William Sharp
The weather continues to be wet and windy. Today bands of rain are passing over and tonight wind speeds up to 56 mph are forecast.
This view is from Westfields Lane over the ford at Mill Beck (stream) to Scotts Hill in the village of Thorner, West Yorkshire.
Thorner village is 8 miles southwest of Wetherby and has no street lighting
The village appears in the 1086 Domesday Book as "Torneure" (also "Tornoure") means "thorn bank". The ancient parish of Thorner covered 4400 acres in the wapentake of Skyrack in the West Riding of Yorkshire
Just to the left of the previous shot, part of the building is covered in 3-dimentional cladding. Make Architects.

Photographed the reflection of the McIntyre Gold Mine No. 11 Shaft Headframe on Pearl Lake located in the Town of Schumacher in the Township of Tisdale located in the City of Timmins in Northeastern Ontario Canada
Standing at 53.34 metres (175 feet) in height, the No. 11 shaft headframe is the sole remaining building of the McIntyre mine, which finally ceased operations in the 1990s after 90 years of continuous extraction. A headframe serves as the top of an elevator shaft, supporting the machinery that allows miners to travel deep into the mine and carry ore and waste rock to the surface. Sitting below No. 11 is a mineshaft 2.5 km deep that gives access to the ore below.
The No. 11 McIntyre Headframe consists of a sturdy steel frame, sheathed in B.C. fir tongue-in-groove planks, and clad with galvanized corrugated iron. Inside, the headframe once housed two ore skips and three-man cages. In its heyday, it handled about 80 per cent of the material extracted from this landmark mine.
Though no longer in operation, the No. 11 headframe continues to be a much-loved city icon, with images occasionally projected onto its large flat surface to mark special occasions.

La Sultana
This sprawling hotel consists of five riads, all of them decorated in a different style signifying various historic periods.
The pale pink Riad Scheherazade drips with intricate stucco work and fine zellij tiling typical of the Saadian era, while the brick-lined Riad Almohad (set around a large pool) echoes the royal granary that once stood here when the Almohad Dynasty ruled.
Jewel-coloured Riad Saadia is clad in carved cedarwood, while Riad Sabaa is a vision of all-white stucco and marble set around a large whirlpool bath.
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee ...
(Psalm 42:5-6)

This is Bottomsfields Lane in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park which is part of a walk from Appleton le Moors to Hutton le Hole.
The Daily Express Building in Manchester is a Grade II listed building which was built in 1939 to designs by Sir Owen Williams, following the example of his Daily Express Building in London (1931) and Glasgow (1936).
The building is notable for its timeless, ‘space-age’ quality and is often mistaken for being much younger than it is due to its futuristic avant garde appearance. The building is futurist art deco, specifically streamline moderne with its horizontal lines and curved corners. It is clad in a combination of opaque and vitrolite glass. It was considered highly radical at the time, and incorporates what was at the time a growing technology, curtain walling.
