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
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.

Westfield Lane drifts down toward the ford, a quiet ribbon of earth and memory. The white‑railed footpath waits beyond, a gentle crossing into the village hush. Mud softens each step, holding the day’s damp breath. Hedgerows lean in, winter‑bare yet whispering of spring. And at the heart of it all rises the ivy‑clad tree, its trunk a living tapestry of green against grey sky, rooted, patient, watching the lane flow like water toward the ford, a sentinel where path, place, and time fold into one.

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)
Hamburg-Überseequartier: Der U-Bahnhof befindet sich 19,5 Meter unter Geländeniveau, also 14 Meter unter Normalnull. Die Gestaltung nach einem Entwurf des Büros „netzwerkarchitekten“ aus Darmstadt sieht eine Verkleidung der Wände mit blauen, keramisch beschichteten Glasfliesen vor, die nach unten hin dunkler werden und an Unterwasserwelten erinnern sollen. Silberne Bleche an der Decke sollen den Eindruck einer Wasseroberfläche erwecken.
Als permanente Kunstinstallation befinden sich neben den Fahrtreppen bei jeder Lampe eckige Lautsprecher, aus denen Meeresrauschen und andere maritime Geräusche dringen, was den optischen „Unterwasser-Eindruck“ der mit zunehmender Tiefe dunkler werdenden Wandverkleidung akustisch verstärken soll.
Hamburg-Überseequartier: The underground station is 19. 5 metres below ground level, i. e. 14 metres below sea level. The design, based on a design by the Darmstadt "netzwerkarchitekten" office, envisages cladding the walls with blue, ceramic-coated glass tiles, which become darker towards the bottom and are intended to remind us of underwater worlds. Silver sheets on the ceiling are supposed to give the impression of a water surface.
As a permanent art installation, next to the escalators, each lamp is equipped with square loudspeakers from which ocean sounds and other maritime sounds penetrate, which are intended to acoustically amplify the optical "underwater impression" of the darkening wall cladding as the depth increases.

A tree smothered in Ivy where ultimately the weight of the Ivy will break some branches. The tree is n0w suffering from a disease and will do well to leaf up next year
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.

Auf dem Foto ist das beeindruckende Chrysler Building aus der Luft zu sehen, ein ikonischer Wolkenkratzer in New York City. Das Gebäude zeichnet sich durch sein Art-Deco-Design und seine markante Spitze aus. Es wurde 1930 fertiggestellt und galt damals als das höchste Gebäude der Welt. Das Chrysler Building ist auch für seine glänzende Metallverkleidung bekannt, die das Tageslicht reflektiert und dem Gebäude einen charakteristischen Glanz verleiht. Im Hintergrund erstreckt sich der East River, der einen wichtigen Teil der New Yorker Skyline bildet und eine bedeutende Wasserstraße für die Stadt darstellt.

The photo shows an aerial view of the impressive Chrysler Building, an iconic skyscraper in New York City. The building is characterized by its Art Deco design and its striking spire. It was completed in 1930 and was considered the tallest building in the world at the time. The Chrysler Building is also known for its shiny metal cladding, which reflects the daylight and gives the building a characteristic sheen. In the background is the East River, which forms an important part of the New York skyline and is a major waterway for the city.
