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.
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
Just to the left of the previous shot, part of the building is covered in 3-dimentional cladding. Make Architects.

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!
When in Banff I recommend a visit and tour of this iconic "Castle of the Rockies." Amazing inside and out. With the Bow River flowing below and the river's falls just to the right in this frame and Mt. Rundle rising majestically across the valley there is much to admire around it as well.
"The hotel opened in 1888 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, as one of the earliest of Canada's grand railway hotels. The original wooden structure burnt down in 1926, the replacement structure was made up of a steel frame, clad in Rundle limestone.
The Banff Springs Hotel includes 757 guest rooms and suites spread throughout the hotel property plus 12 restaurants."

Passau, Germany. From left, the scaffold-clad Old Town Hall tower in the background, the tower of the Church of St. Paul in the foreground, and the three towers of Dom St. Stephan at right.
I have some interior photos from St. Paul I might post.
I like the cartoonish feel here, that comes from compensating for the grey day and the bus window!
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.

McIntyre Gold Mine No. 11 Shaft Headframe viewed from the Schumacher Lions Park 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.

Its nearing the time of year when the Heather starts to bloom carpeting the hillsides with a blaze of colour.
The hill to the west of Kendall Bay, Auckland. This is a pano of 18 images from my drone.
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!
Most of my pictures are taken in and around the city of Molde, in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway.
This one was taken on the trail to Varden viewpoint (Molde panorama)
"From the Varden viewpoint (407 m.a.s.) there is a fantastic view over the town of Molde, the fjord with the islands, and the famous Molde panorama with its 222 partially snow-clad peaks."
