Museum van Bommel van Dam, the museum for modern and contemporary art in North Limburg, is presenting an anniversary exhibition this fall of the realistic painter Evert Thielen (1954), born in Venlo. For over 50 years, he has been making extremely detailed paintings and meter-high polyptychs with self-made paint and gives his own twist to classical genres.

These magnificent columns stand at the entry to one of colonial architect John Lee Archer's finest buildings. Archer (1792-1852) is most famous for coming up with the basic design for the Ross Bridge (1836), which stonemason Daniel Herbert then set about turning into a masterpiece of symbolic design. You can check out my album on "The Story of the Ross Bridge". www.flickr.com/photos/183221334@N02/albums/72157716105920156

I could have titled this "Memories of Max", but that would have been presumptuous. The great Australian photographer of the 20th century Max Dupain (1911-1992), although well known for his iconic Australian landscapes and beach scenes, was a superb architectural photographer. In 1963 he published a book for the National Trust on Georgian architecture in NSW and Tasmania. It is loaded with magnificent monochromes. Here's a link (not to promote the selling site), but to give you an opportunity to scan some of its pages that are displayed here. It's a wonderful collection of historic photographs:

Here's a build I've been waiting to photograph for ages! It's a 'classical' steampunk city diorama, with an open back and full interior. I also lit it up using Lightailing lights!
It can also split into 2 parts, and a section comes off to reveal another hidden interior.
This main shot is a bit like the 18+ ones, with a more natural background, and some steampunky objects.
The classical view of Hallstatt. Uploaded to the internet a million times (at least). So I asked myself, how can I possibly add something new? For starters, I came in winter, and (of course) I waited for my favorite light which is at blue hour, just when the city lights turn on. And then there was the ferry. I noticed the little ferry boat already during the day and thought its lights might provide nice trails during blue hour. So I studied the schedule and came back to the right place at the right time ...

Leaving up the Xmas lights is not cool, when you have a beautiful façade like this one!
Chambers County Courthouse in Lafayette Alabama was built in 1900 in the Classical Revival style by architects Golucke & Stewart. The building faces east and is a two story red colored brick, stone and concrete structure. The building is located on landscaped grounds of the Courthouse Square in the center of Lafayette. The east front has a projecting center section with three arches on the first story with recessed entrance. On the second story is a porch with four columns and pediment above. The second story windows are arched. On each corner is a dome with cupola at the top. On the center of the roof is an octagonal brick dome with cupola and Statue of Justice at the top. The clock is the original clock from the 1836 courthouse.
