A shot of some cast iron buildings on Broome St in the SoHo district of Manhattan.There are 26 blocks with approximately 500 buildings in SoHo,with about 250 of them incorporating cast-iron architectural elements (mostly on the façades).The district came to the public's attention for being an area that had artist's lofts and art galleries during the 1960s.The artists were attracted to the high ceilings and large windows used to display their works.Today,SoHo consists mostly of a variety of shops ranging from upscale trendy boutiques to national and international chain store outlets.In 2010 there were three times as many boutiques than at galleries.Many of the chain stores are on Broadway,about three blocks north of this shot and runs between Houston St in the east and Canal St in the west.SoHo was designated NYC-Cast Iron Historic District landmark in 1973.

Fuchsia

 

Fuchsia is a dancer

Dancing on her toes,

Clad in red and purple,

By a cottage wall;

Sometimes in a greenhouse,

In frilly white and rose,

Dressed in her best

For the fairies'

evening ball!

A fisherman in his underwear unloading a fishing boat.

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

The ArtScience Museum is a key attraction of the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort located at Bayfront Avenue in Singapore. It was designed by world-renown architect Moshe Safdie, and opened its doors to the public in February 2011. This morning photograph was taken recently, showing the lower glass-clad structure and the external staircases leading to the upper structure. The structure was reflected in the pool, in the foreground, with lotus leaves and flowers.

 

Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!

Los antófilos (Anthophila, griego ‘que aman las flores’), conocidos comúnmente como abejas, son un clado de insectos himenópteros, sin ubicación en categoría taxonómica, dentro de la superfamilia Apoidea. Se trata de un linaje monofilético con más de 20 000 especies conocidas. Las abejas, al igual que las hormigas, evolucionaron a partir de himenópteros aculeados. Los antepasados de las abejas estaban relacionados con la familia Crabronidae y eran depredadores de insectos. Es posible que las primeras abejas se hayan alimentado del polen que cubría a algunas de sus presas y que, gradualmente, hayan empezado a alimentar a sus crías con polen en lugar de insectos.1

Hay muchas más especies que aún no han sido descritas. Se las encuentra en todos los continentes, excepto en la Antártida. Están en todos los hábitats donde hay plantas con flores (magnoliofitas o angiospermas). Están adaptadas para alimentarse de polen y néctar, usando el primero fundamentalmente como alimento para las larvas y el segundo como material energético. La especie más conocida es la abeja doméstica (Apis mellifera), a veces simplemente llamada “abeja”; esta especie es un insecto social que vive en enjambres formados por tres clases de individuos: reina, obreras y zánganos;

The cladding on this new building reflects the light playing on another one nearby. I like the colours. Viewed large it looks as if the Jeep Compass has a parking ticket under the windscreen wiper!

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 ...

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.

Its nearing the time of year when the Heather starts to bloom carpeting the hillsides with a blaze of colour.
