L’église Saint-Jacques-le-Mineur de Liège, ancienne abbatiale bénédictine de Saint-Jacques à Liège, est fondée en 1015 par le prince-évêque Baldéric II, successeur de Notger. Lors de la destruction de la collégiale Saint-Pierre, elle devient la collégiale Saint-Jacques.
L'église gothique actuelle, dont la construction fut achevée en 1538, remplaça l'église romane primitive. La voûte et ses peintures sont de la même époque, ainsi que les vitraux du chœur datés de 1525 à 1531. Le portail Renaissance ajouté en 1558 est attribué à Lambert Lombard. L'église primitive comportait un avant-corps roman et un clocher octogonal daté des environs de 1170. Seul l'avant-corps avec une de ses trois tours a été conservé.
Parmi les éléments les plus remarquables, la nef, véritable dentelle de pierre ; la voûte exceptionnelle comptant plus de 150 clés de voûte dans la nef centrale.
L'église a une longueur de 90 m pour une largeur de 30 m et une hauteur de 38 m. Comme la plupart des églises, Saint-Jacques a un plan en forme de croix latine. La nef comporte six travées et l'abside est semi-circulaire à cinq pans.
The church of Saint-Jacques-le-Mineur in Liège, a former Benedictine abbey church of Saint-Jacques in Liège, was founded in 1015 by Prince-Bishop Baldéric II, successor to Notger. When the Saint-Pierre collegiate church was destroyed, it became the Saint-Jacques collegiate church.
The current Gothic church, whose construction was completed in 1538, replaced the original Romanesque church. The vault and its paintings are from the same period, as well as the stained glass windows in the choir dating from 1525 to 1531. The Renaissance portal added in 1558 is attributed to Lambert Lombard. The primitive church had a Romanesque front section and an octagonal bell tower dated around 1170. Only the front section with one of its three towers has been preserved.
Among the most remarkable elements, the nave, a veritable stone lacework; the exceptional vault with more than 150 keystones in the central nave.
The church has a length of 90 m by a width of 30 m and a height of 38 m. Like most churches, Saint-Jacques has a Latin cross-shaped plan. The nave has six bays and the apse is semicircular with five sides.
The collegiate church of the former monastery is located in Vornbach, near the banks of the Inn.
Established in 1050 by Countess Himiltrud von Vornbach as a collegiate monastery, the monastery was converted into a Benedictine monastery in 1094.
Around 1125 a double-towered basilica was built as a monastery church. This church was rebuilt between 1630 and 1637 in the Baroque style with the inclusion of the Romanesque surrounding walls. The church was redecorated in Rococo style between 1728 and 1733. Franz Ignaz Holzinger stuccoed the interior of the church while Innocent Anton Warathy paints the frescoes. On the west gallery there is an organ by Johann Ignaz Egedacher, which is largely preserved in the original.
I believe that's Mt. Yale on the left and Mt. Columbia on the right. This shot was taken from CR300 that goes out to Ruby Mountain, adjacent to the Arkansas River.
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
This photo corelates to the preceding photo I shared taken from Cottonwood Pass, Colorado. Cottonwood Creek descends to the Arkansas river here.

The Eagles performed during a benefit concert for California Senator Alan Cranston on July 31, 1980, on what has been described as "Long Night at Wrong Beach".Tempers boiled over as Glenn Frey and Don Felder spent the entire show telling each other about the beating each planned to administer backstage. "Only three more songs until I kick your ass, pal," Frey recalls Felder telling him near the end of the band's set.Felder recalls Frey making a similar threat to him during "Best of My Love"."We're out there singing ‘Best of My Love', but inside both of us are thinking, 'As soon as this is over, I'm gonna kill him,' " recalled Frey.

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 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.
From above Cottonwood Pass at about 12,300 feet looking northeast into the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness and at the Continental Divide We are hoping there will be a good snowpack this winter season that will blanket this area. On average this area gets anywhere from 20 - 30 feet of snow.
"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.
