On 1 May 2015, the new Munich Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism opened as a place of education and remembrance documenting and addressing the crimes of the Nazi dictatorship and their origins, manifestations and consequences right up to the present day.
As the place where the NSDAP was founded, Munich is associated more than any other German city with the rise of National Socialism. The former ‚Capital of the Movement’ played a pioneering role in the establishment of the Nazi regime of terror and was home to the Nazi party apparatus.
The Documentation Centre has been built on the site of the former ‚Brown House’, once the headquarters of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP). The new construction is designed to be an open and lively forum of information and discussion.
The permanent exhibition documents the history of National Socialism in Munich, the city’s special role in the Nazi system of terror and Munich’s difficulties in confronting its past after 1945. As well as the permanent exhibition, there are also a series of special exhibitions, a learning centre, a varied programme of events and various educational resources.
The central principle underlying the exhibition and the Documentation Centre’s educational concept being to acknowledge, learn about and understand the history of this location. The key questions that the Documentation Centre poses to visitors are: “What does this have to do with me?” and “Why should this still concern me today?”
The initiative to build a Munich Documentation Centre came from committed citizens of Munich. The construction costs, amounting to 28.2 million euros, were shared equally by the City of Munich, the State of Bavaria and the German Federal Government. The State of Bavaria has made the site available, and the City of Munich will bear the operating costs.
Counterpoint at the historical site
In April 2008 the Munich City Council commissioned the department of urban development to advertise a competition for the realisation of a Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism. A specification of the competition was to submit an architectural concept which concerned itself with the special historic significance of the site. The building's architecture and the design of the outdoor area were to mark the fundamental break with the site's history and to the former Nazi buildings in the neighbourhood (today's school of music and theatre, for instance).
Visual connection with surrounding topography
The design by Georg Scheel Wetzel Architekten won the competition. The jury justified its selection of the concept of the Berlin architects from an urban development and design viewpoint as an 'excellent response to the task set with its own unmistakeable identity'. The cube marks the perpetrator site without a reference to the 'Brown House'. The louvered windows enable varied visual connections with the building relics of the Nazi era, so the authentic sites become part of the documentation.
The highest quality of exposed white concrete
In addition to its cubic, compact form the architecture of the new building is strongly determined by the material: the fine, exposed white concrete characterises both the exterior and the interior. The building is in stark contrast with its environment. The facades consist of light, closed surfaces and dark, partly cross-storey window areas.

As a child, I was very comfortable picking up worms and frogs I'd find before gently replacing them on the ground. I'm assuming my fear of spiders was something I learned from the grown-ups in my life. For something that small to make an adult shriek and run in terror must mean that spiders were dangerous. This learned fear gradually changed over time....and now I find that spiders are some of my favorite macrophotography friends. It is good to make new friends!
Back rested and bright eyed and bushy tailed I am starting with one of my favorite views of Haarlem which is the backside approach to the Nieuwe Kerk the scene always appears to me as a picture waiting to be captured and a fitting end to my reworks of Haarlem.
Originally there stood a cramped and falling down gothic St. Anne's chapel which the Nieuwe Kerk replaced in 1649 by Jacob van Campen’s Gothic austere design as Haarlem’s first stone built protestant church but keeping the locally designed Renaissance tower by Lieven de Key by request of the city .
This style of protestant church was designed to focus the congregants attention on the pulpit instead of the ornamentation and the outside was to represent the temple keep in Jerusalem.
The Nieuwe Kerk also served a more practical reason as well, in the winter the Grote Kerk is freezing and there is not an easy way to heat it comfortably to make it bearable for the attendees so during the colder months of the year the congregation moves into a much smaller warmer space of the New Church.
I took this on Sept 13th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 1/10 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO

Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….
What better place to wander around in than the fluffiness of a seed head? At least that's what this ladybird decided to do!

The South Loop has gone through a number of transformations in its lifetime, from museum hotspot to college campus mecca to restaurant powerhouse, but no one can deny its consistent appeal. Hosting quaint (and unexpected, given its proximity to the towering skyscrapers of the Loop) single-family homes and high-rises that soar above the city, the South Loop is as comfortable as it is forward thinking. While the constant flow of college students and office workers fill the neighborhood during the day, at night the neighborhood transitions into a quiet enclave in the shadows of the city's most iconic buildings. Home to one of the most exciting restaurant scenes in the city, front row access to Grant Park, and the city's most famous museums, the South Loop offers a combination of amenities and serenity unmatched by most urban neighborhoods.

I want to take a moment to thank all the wonderful people who have trusted me with blogging their creations, to all those who have given me tips and answered my never ending questions.
I have a very stressful, IT job in RL and by nature am an introvert, so I often don't think about all the blessing I have nor am I comfortable expressing my gratitude. I am also very shy about reaching out to my SL Community.
I have been loving Second Life since 2008 and it has never been better for me than it is now. I owe that to all my SL friends and supporters.
Have a wonderful holiday and may 2019 be your best year ever - Augusta
