Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac is a 130 years old hotel, built on the site of residences of colonial governors, and overlooks the old Port Quebec at the mouth of St. Lawrence River (Fleuve Saint-Laurent).
Not surprisingly, this hotel has seen much history, including two Allied conferences during World War II, and counts international royalty and world leaders such as Ronald Reagan among its guests.
The hotel has also been used as location for various films and TV shows, and according to some tour guidebooks, it is the most photographed landmark in Quebec City.

caught in a moment of pure puzzlement, this man appears to be on the phone, perhaps with the hotel reception, seeking an explanation for the unusual “external lift” that’s ascended to his balcony. the warm sunlight highlights the building’s classical details, creating a striking contrast with the modern lift awkwardly hanging below him. there’s a quiet humor in this scene, as if he’s both amused and perplexed, wondering if the hotel’s “concierge service” has been taken a bit too literally. the madrid fire department had arrived due to concerns that parts of the building’s rooftop were at risk of falling. fortunately, the man faced no fire or immediate danger, adding a touch of irony to his bemused expression.
This photo uses long exposure to capture the passage of time and the motion of a historical landmark or moment. The result is an artistic representation that conveys a sense of movement and continuity, offering a unique and immersive visual journey through history.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a true marvel, standing tall and proud, defying the laws of physics, and leaving a lasting impression on all those who visit. As the night falls and the sky turns blue, the Leaning Tower of Pisa rises high above the surrounding buildings, casting a striking silhouette against the fading light. Its infamous lean adds a touch of intrigue to the scene, drawing visitors from far and wide to marvel at its architectural wonder. The tranquil setting creates a serene atmosphere, making it a perfect place for reflection and contemplation.

It was designed for the Serbian merchant Giovanni Berlam in 1850, at the end of the neoclassical period. The statues adorning the façade represent four Serbian characters.
The most famous is Lazar Grabljanovic, an unfortunate leader in the battle against the Turks in 1389 and a national hero in Serbia.
My love for Venice is immeasurable.

This is an image I shot last year and is another motion bur image in my Enlightenment series. Shot with an exposure of 270 sec with the 24mm tilt-shift lens. I have shot many motion blur images over time, I think it’s time for them to see the light of day.
You can find limited edition prints of this image and more on my website.

One of the most stunning features of Hearst Castle is the opulent Roman Pool, an indoor swimming pool that looks straight out of a palace from ancient times. This jaw-dropping masterpiece is located beneath the tennis courts and is modeled after the luxurious baths of ancient Rome. Adorned with intricate blue and gold mosaic tiles, the pool is a symbol of wealth and grandeur, capturing the imagination of anyone who visits.
Designed by architect Julia Morgan, the Roman Pool was completed in the mid-1920s and remains one of the most iconic aspects of Hearst Castle today. The small glass and gold tiles (tesserae) are laid out in mesmerizing geometric patterns, with the recurring motif of the ancient Greek key and several depictions of mythological figures, including Neptune and Nereid. The deep blue hue of the tiles combined with the pool’s dramatic lighting creates a surreal and reflective effect, making it seem almost otherworldly. Eight Roman-style statues guard the space, adding to the classical grandeur.
Each corner and detail in the pool was meticulously planned, down to the alabaster lamps that stand elegantly by the pool’s edge, casting a soft glow. The ceiling, though weathered over time, complements the lavishness of the pool with its ornate design.
Visiting Hearst Castle and seeing the Roman Pool is like stepping into a different era, a place where art, architecture, and opulence meet. For architecture buffs and those with a love for history, this pool is not just a swimming area—it's an artistic experience not to be missed.

Em Gammel Mønt, em Copenhaga, Dinamarca, ergue-se um edifício de fachada laranja que sobressai entre as construções vizinhas. As suas janelas alinhadas e o telhado tradicional evidenciam a arquitetura histórica da cidade. Na base, os grafites acrescentam um elemento urbano ao ambiente. A presença da placa "Gammel Mønt" e da loja "Skipper Stoffer" remete para a história e a atividade comercial desta rua.
