The idea on this night was to try to get a shot of the Comet Lemmon. And while it was visible and I did get some pics of it the view of the comet was somewhat disappointing. The view of the Milky Way above the observation building was much better. Cheers! Colorado, USA
La Real Colegiata de Santa María es un conjunto monumental situado en la localidad de Roncesvalles (Navarra, España), considerado como el mejor ejemplo navarro del gótico, al más puro estilo de la región parisina de la Isla de Francia. Su construcción fue impulsada por el rey de Navarra Sancho VII, el Fuerte quién deseaba, al mismo tiempo, le sirviera de lugar de enterramiento como finalmente fue. Se levantó a principios del siglo XIII y acogiendo entre sus paredes una preciosa imagen de la Virgen del siglo XIV. Ha sufrido varias reformas y reconstrucciones tras varios contratiempos siendo la reconstrucción del siglo XVII la que afectó a todo el conjunto especialmente a la iglesia y claustro.
Hoy la iglesia presenta una planta de tres naves, la central de doble anchura que las laterales, que se dividen en cinco tramos a los que hay que añadir en la nave central una cabecera pentagonal; las laterales terminan en recto. El sistema de soportes está compuesto de pilares cilíndricos que separan las naves de grosor alternante, se apoyan en una basa y rematan en capitel decorado con doble faja de crochets de tratamiento muy simple. Los pilares sirven de apoyo a los arcos formeros apuntados y a las columnillas que soportan las cubiertas. Sobre los arcos formeros corre el triforio, formado en cada tramo de la nave central por cuatro arquillos apuntados sobre columnillas con el mismo tipo de capitel, galería que da paso sin elementos de separación al óculo en el que se dispone como único elemento decorativo una secuencia de arcos apuntados. En la cabecera se abren grandes ventanales decorados con vidrieras coloreadas modernas fabricadas en Alemania.
Preside el templo una magnífica escultura de la Virgen de Roncesvalles. Es una talla de madera, forrada de plata, gótica, de mediados del siglo XIV y realizada en Toulouse. Transmite a la perfección el espíritu gótico en lo que tiene de cercanía, naturalismo y familiaridad.

The Royal Collegiate Church of Santa Maria is a monumental complex located in the town of Roncesvalles (Navarra, Spain), considered the best example of Gothic Navarre, in the purest style of the Parisian region of the Isle of France. Its construction was promoted by the king of Navarre Sancho VII, the Strong who wished, at the same time, to use it as a burial place, as it finally was. It was erected at the beginning of the 13th century and it houses within its walls a beautiful image of the Virgin of the 14th century. It has undergone several reforms and reconstructions after several setbacks being the reconstruction of the seventeenth century which affected the whole especially the church and cloister.
Today the church has a plan of three naves, the central one of double width than the lateral ones, which are divided into five sections to which a pentagonal chancel must be added in the central nave; the lateral ones end in a straight line. The system of supports is composed of cylindrical pillars that separate the naves of alternating thickness, supported on a base and topped with a capital decorated with a double band of crochets of very simple treatment. The pillars support the pointed former arches and the small columns that support the roofs. Over the former arches runs the triforium, formed in each bay of the central nave by four pointed arches on small columns with the same type of capital, a gallery that gives way without separating elements to the oculus in which there is a sequence of pointed arches as the only decorative element. In the chancel there are large windows decorated with modern colored stained glass windows made in Germany.
A magnificent sculpture of the Virgin of Roncesvalles presides over the temple. It is a wood carving, covered with silver, Gothic, mid-fourteenth century and made in Toulouse. It transmits to the perfection the Gothic spirit in what it has of closeness, naturalism and familiarity.

Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodstock_Collegiate_Institute:
Woodstock Collegiate Institute is a school in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Thames Valley District School Board.
The school was founded in 1841 by an Act of Parliament as Woodstock's first grammar school. Its growth forced a series of physical moves; the school relocated in 1851, 1881, and to its present site in 1939.
The school faced possible closing at the end of the 20th century. It underwent major faculty improvements, including renovating science classrooms, that were completed in 2001.
The Collegiate Church of St. Mary and St. Alexius (Polish: Kolegiata w Tumie) is an encastellated Romanesque church located in the village of Tum near Łęczyca, in central Poland. It was constructed out of granite blocks and sandstone in the mid-12th century.
The church was built using the opus emplectum technique. It has the form of an aisled basilica with galleries, a twin-tower west façade, and two apses (west and east). It was reconstructed in the 15th, 18th and mid-20th centuries; during the latest reconstruction the church returned to its simpler Romanesque form and round turrets at the east were added. The main (north) portal is sculpted and dates back to the first half of 12th century.
The temple stands on top of a holm or islet which was once surrounded by wetlands and marshes. There is evidence from a papal bull issued by Pope Innocent II that a wooden monastery of the early Benedictine Brothers pre dated the church by at least a century.Older excavations and historical analysis suggested that the monastery was founded by Boleslaus I, the first King of Poland, and Saint Adalbert of Prague in approximately 997 AD. However, more recent studies prove that it was most likely founded during the Restoration period, in the second half of the 11th century. The monastery was demolished to make way for the current church.
Historian and painter Władysław Łuszczkiewicz noted that the islet (and the nearby mound) served as a small fortified stronghold, or gord.[5] He justified his claim with the location particulars, as churches would be founded in the vicinity of populated settlements or castles than on isolated land.
The construction was initiated by Janik, Archbishop of Gniezno, in around 1149.[4] According to a legend, the local townsfolk from Łęczyca believed that the dimples in stonework were made by the hands of Devil Boruta, who attempted to destroy the church. The unfinished structure was consecrated on 21 May 1161 by officials and princes.
Ok, out of the city for a while. The collegiate peaks are part of the collection of mountain peaks found in Colorado, over 14,ooo ft.
If there's one thing that leaving Colorado, even for the shortest time, has taught me - it's that I really do love this beautiful state.
"The Notre-Dame collegiate church is a monument in the town of Vernon in the Eure. It is located opposite the town hall and next to the tourist office. The building is the subject of a classification as historical monuments by the list of 1862.
Work on the building began in the late 1000's. It was around 1072 that the dedication to “the Holy Mother of God” of collegiate 2 took place by Gilbert Fitz Osbern, bishop of Évreux, this church being built in the environment of a pagan temple.
The facade dates from the 1400's. In 1160, Guillaume de Vernon senior founded the college of sixteen canons.
The collegiate church of Vernon has two spiers 70 m high. Important works carried out between 1360 and 1610 concerned the nave and the facade of the collegiate church to create a magnificent Gothic construction with six bays and thirteen side chapels. It was completed in the 1600's.
This construction is one of the oldest in Normandy, in limestone from Vernon, Latin cross plan with non-projecting transept; floors, a vessel, ribbed vaults, slate roofing.
Vernon is a French commune located in the department of Eure in the Normandy region . It is located at the crossroads of the roads from Évreux to Beauvais and from Paris to Rouen by the valley of the Seine. Its motto is Vernon semper viret, "Vernon always green"." - info from Wikipedia.

Lincluden Collegiate Church, known earlier as Lincluden Priory or Lincluden Abbey, is a ruined religious house, situated to the north of the Royal Burgh of Dumfries, Scotland. Situated in a bend of the Cluden Water, at its confluence with the River Nith, the ruins are on the site of the Bailey of the very early Lincluden Castle, as are those of the later Lincluden Tower. This religious house was founded circa 1160 and was used for various purposes, until its abandonment around 1700. The remaining ruins are protected as a category A listed building, and as a scheduled monument.
The Neckarfront is probably the most photographed town in Tuebingen. The ensemble of multi-storey, gabled houses stretching from the Eberhardsbrücke neckar upwards until characteristic Hölderlinturm with the landing of the punts. With this, the southern side of the houses sit on the still existing in parts of the city wall.
The overall picture is one of the Neckarfront superior tower of the collegiate church.
Die Neckarfront ist wohl der meistfotografierte Ort Tübingens. Das Ensemble aus mehrstöckigen, giebelständigen Wohnhäusern zieht sich von der Eberhardsbrücke neckaraufwärts bis zum charakteristischen Hölderlinturm mit der Anlegestelle der Stocherkähne. Mit dieser, der südlichen Seite sitzen die Häuser auf der noch in Teilen vorhandenen Stadtmauer. Zum Gesamtbild gehört der die Neckarfront überragende Turm der Stiftskirche.
Notre-Dame is the present parish church of Aigueperse
The first construction work dates back to 1016. However, it only acquired its final form at the end of the 12th century, when the chancel and transept were built in their present form. It is considered the first Gothic building in the Auvergne. In 1253, it was elevated to the status of a collegiate church.
The church was completely restored in 1865. The nave and facade were rebuilt in 1880, replacing a nave that had been reconstructed in 1734 after its collapse in 1727. A new bell tower north of the transept replaced the one destroyed during the French Revolution.

Brant Avenue Heritage Conservation District
39-291 Brant Avenue
Description of Historic Place
The Brant Avenue Heritage Conservation District includes buildings on Brant Avenue between St. Paul Avenue and the Lorne Bridge in the City of Brantford. Although this district includes the Armoury, Brant Ave. Church and the Brantford Collegiate Institute, the majority of the 132 properties are residential, built between 1870 and 1889.
The district was designated by the City of Brantford for its heritage value under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act in 1988 (By-law 239-88).
Heritage Value
The south entrance to the Brant Avenue Heritage Conservation District is marked by the Cenotaph (the Brant County War Memorial) and Tom Thumb Park. This popular area saw rapid residential growth due to its proximity to local employment opportunities, shopping and easy access to the commercial and industrial core in the Colbourne Street area.
Brant Avenue is presently part of Highway 2, a busy two-way main artery, which began serving Brantford in circa 1823 with the opening of the Hamilton to London section of road. Since its construction the street has functioned as a vibrant entry point to the city.
The increase in economic development in Brantford from 1870-1889 resulting from the opening of large farm related companies such as Harris Kirby Mower (1871) and the Cockshutt Plow Company (1878), resulted in a boom in residential construction. It was during this time that most of the larger homes along Brant Avenue were built. Residing in these large impressive homes were the “movers and shakers” of Brantford, which included Henry Brethour, Director of the local Fire Company and a business man; Hanson Harris, co-founder of Massey Harris; William Buck of Buck Stove Works; and Clayton Slater, owner of Wincey Mills. Each played a key role in creating growth in the City of Brantford. By 1890, the Brant Avenue neighbourhood was considered fully developed.
Noteworthy properties include the W.H Brethour House, David Plewes House and the Brant Avenue Church which were designed by local architect John Turner.
Turner also designed St. Andrew's United Church, Brant Community Church, and the Brant County Court House, all located around Victoria Park Square in downtown Brantford.
Brant Avenue is a combination of both large and modest structures creating an exceptional streetscape. The buildings feature traditional architectural styles including Neo-Classical, Italianate, Gothic, and Queen Anne, creating a cornucopia of detail and an interesting skyline. Predominant elements on the buildings include: brick or stone quoins, window and door openings, balconies, bargeboards, cornice mouldings, striking belt courses, interesting entrance porches, iron crestings and various window and door labels.
Many of the buildings have been constructed as duplicates, mirror images, or complimentary pairs adding an uniqueness to the District as a whole. They feature segmented or round headed windows. A number of the buildings had porches added during the Edwardian Period (1903 -11). These additions possess a level of detail, scale and proportion compatible with the original building design.

A visit to Tattershall Castle A close up view of the Collegiate Church of Holy Trinity as seen from the roof of Tattershall Castle.
Holy Trinity Church, Tattershall There was a Norman chapel at Tattershall, but no trace of this remains. The present building was begun in c. 1465 under the provisions of the will of Ralph Cromwell, 3rd Baron Cromwell, who owned Tattershall Castle, and was intended to serve a college of priests founded at Tattershall by Cromwell in 1440. The college was dissolved in 1545 as part of the English Reformation. In 1754 or 1757 most of the medieval stained glass in the church was removed and sold, being installed primarily in Burghley House and St Martin's Church, Stamford; the remaining glass at Tattershall has been re-assembled in the east window.
The church is known for its architecture, being described as "Lincolnshire's grandest Perpendicular church". More info here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Trinity_Church,_Tattershall
