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.

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
This ivy clad tree is on the Ripon Canal between Renton's Bridge and Nicholson's Bridge. On the left, you can see Ripon Racecourse
The Ripon Canal is located in North Yorkshire, England. It was built by the canal engineer William Jessop to link the city of Ripon with the navigable section of the River Ure at Oxclose Lock, from where boats could reach York and Hull. First used in 1773 and closed in 1956 consisting of 3 locks over its 2.3 miles
In 1961, members of the Ripon Motor Boat Club formed the Ripon Canal Company Ltd, and gradually restored the canal up to Littlethorpe. Subsequently, the Ripon Canal Society spearheaded restoration, which was completed in 1996. It is now managed by the Canal & River Trust
Just to the left of the previous shot, part of the building is covered in 3-dimentional cladding. Make Architects.

Common Gallinule
Clad in charcoal plumage with a vivid red-and-yellow bill, the Common Gallinule is sleek and understated beside its flashier swamphen cousins. Its shorter toes favor shallow water and firm footing, ideal for foraging along the marsh edge.
Though both the Common Gallinule and swamphens belong to the Rallidae family, they aren’t in the same genus. Swamphens and the Purple Gallinule are part of the Porphyrio genus, while Common Gallinules belong to the Gallinula genus. Despite similar habitats and behaviors, they are classified differently in the bird family tree.

A building's staircase ascends in confident zigzags against a warm ochre retaining wall, its horizontal steel railings echoing the rhythm of the timber-clad building to the right. At street level, a gate of wrought ironwork leaves — unexpectedly delicate against the geometry above — marks the threshold between pavement and ascent.
The composition layers horizontal against diagonal, industrial material against organic ornament, urban structure against the scrubby hillside beyond. It is a staircase that knows it has an audience.
Escher — those zigzagging staircases ascending into ambiguity feel unmistakably like his endless staircase prints.
ES: Una escalera asciende en zigzags decididos contra un muro de contención de cálido color ocre, cuyos peldaños metálicos horizontales repiten el ritmo del revestimiento de madera del edificio a la derecha. A pie de calle, una verja de hojas forjadas — inesperadamente delicada frente a la geometría superior — marca el umbral entre la acera y el ascenso.
La composición superpone lo horizontal y lo diagonal, el material industrial y el ornamento orgánico, la estructura urbana y la ladera silvestre al fondo. Es una escalera que sabe que tiene público.
The Nlak’pamux Church, also known as St. Michael and All Angels Anglican Church. c. Early 1900's
Believed to be built sometime between 1905 - 1907
A photographer's favorite.
A small wood framed, Gothic Revival building, it is quite straightforward in design, with a small narthex at the front of the rectangular nave, a small bell tower over the entrance and a small altar extending out the rear. The bell tower is of interesting design, rising out of the gable of the narthex, with a shingled steeple like a little brown helmet, surmounted by a wooden cross. The belfry vents, with gable tops, are open all around, exposing the 26 inch bell which still hangs within. The building is clad entirely in shingles, many of which are now coming adrift, indicating its recent years of inactivity. All openings are rectangular, lacking Gothic arches, doubtless concessions to economics and the need to complete the church in a timely fashion.
Spences Bridge is a community in the Canadian province of British Columbia, situated 35 km north east of Lytton and 44 km south of Ashcroft. In 1892, the population included 32 people of European ancestry and 130 First Nations people. There were five general stores, three hotels, one Church of England and one school. Wikipedia

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)
Les abeilles (Anthophila) forment un clade d'insectes hyménoptères de la superfamille des Apoïdes. Au moins 20 000 espèces d'abeilles sont répertoriées sur la planète1 dont environ 2 000 en Europe et près de 1 000 en France2. En Europe, l'espèce la plus connue est Apis mellifera qui, comme la plupart des abeilles à miel, appartient au genre Apis. Cependant, la majorité des abeilles ne produisent pas de miel, elles se nourrissent du nectar des fleurs. Une abeille d'hiver peut vivre jusqu'à 10 mois, tandis qu'une abeille d'été peut vivre jusqu'à 1 mois. Les abeilles peuvent être classées selon leur mode de vie : abeilles domestiques, sauvages, solitaires ou bien sociales, etc. Elles sont nettement distinctes des guêpes par leur morphologie et leur comportement, notamment leur alimentation. Les bourdons en revanche sont un groupe particulier d'abeilles3,4.
Selon l'ONU, le « taux d'extinction de ces pollinisateurs est aujourd'hui de 100 à 1.000 fois plus élevé que la normale »

Bees (Anthophila) form a clade of hymenopteran insects from the Apoid superfamily. At least 20 000 species of bees are listed on the planet1 of which about 2000 in Europe and nearly 1 000 in France2. In Europe, the best-known species is Apis mellifera, which, like most honeybees, belongs to the genus Apis. However, the majority of bees do not produce honey, they feed on the nectar of flowers. A winter bee can live up to 10 months, while a summer bee can live up to 1 month. Bees can be classified according to their way of life: domestic, wild, solitary or social bees, etc. They are clearly distinct from wasps by their morphology and behavior, including their diet. Bumble bees, on the other hand, are a particular group of bees3,4.
According to the UN, the "extinction rate of these pollinators is now 100 to 1,000 times higher than normal"

I realise now if I had gone higher I might have been able to see the military base on the other side of the hill!

Felis tigris was the scientific name used by Carl Linnaeus in 1758 for the tiger. It was subordinated to the genus Panthera by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1929. Bengal is the traditional type locality of the species and the nominate subspecies Panthera tigris tigris.
The validity of several tiger subspecies in continental Asia was questioned in 1999. Morphologically, tigers from different regions vary little, and gene flow between populations in those regions is considered to have been possible during the Pleistocene. Therefore, it was proposed to recognise only two subspecies as valid, namely P. t. tigris in mainland Asia, and P. t. sondaica in the Greater Sunda Islands and possibly in Sundaland. The nominate subspecies P. t. tigris constitutes two clades: the northern clade comprises the Siberian and Caspian tiger populations, and the southern clade all remaining continental tiger populations. The extinct and living tiger populations in continental Asia have been subsumed to P. t. tigris since the revision of felid taxonomy in 2017.
Results of a genetic analysis of 32 tiger samples indicate that the Bengal tiger samples grouped into a different monophyletic clade than the Siberian tiger samples.
