Dem Bones" (also called "Dry Bones" and "Dem Dry Bones") is a spiritual song. The melody was composed by author and songwriter James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938) and his brother, J. Rosamond Johnson. It was first recorded by The Famous Myers Jubilee Singers in 1928. Both a long and a shortened version of the song are widely known. The lyrics are inspired by Ezekiel 37:1–14, in which the prophet Ezekiel visits the Valley of Dry Bones and prophesies that they will one day be resurrected at God's command, picturing the realization of the New Jerusalem.
Well, your toe bone connected to your foot bone
Your foot bone connected to your heel bone
Your heel bone connected to your ankle bone
Your ankle bone connected to your leg bone

While walking around and taking in views of fallen leaves in Lithia Park in Ashland Oregon. My thinking in composing this image was to get down low with my iPhone and angle it such that I created a sweeping view across the carpet of fallen leaves on this grassy field.

Originally composed in 932 AH / 1525 CE and dedicated to Sultan Süleyman I ("The Magnificent"), this great work by Piri Reis (d. 962 AH / 1555 CE) on navigation was later revised and expanded. The present manuscript, made mostly in the late 11th AH / 17th CE century, is based on the later expanded version with some 240 exquisitely executed maps and portolan charts. They include a world map (fol.41a) with the outline of the Americas, as well as coastlines (bays, capes, peninsulas), islands, mountains and cities of the Mediterranean basin and the Black Sea. The work starts with the description of the coastline of Anatolia and the islands of the Aegean Sea, the Peloponnese peninsula and eastern and western coasts of the Adriatic Sea. It then proceeds to describe the western shores of Italy, southern France, Spain, North Africa, Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, western Anatolia, various islands north of Crete, Sea of Marmara, Bosporus and the Black Sea. It ends with a map of the shores of the the Caspian Sea (fol.374a).

When composing this shot I was struck by how both the foreground limestone rock and the cloud formation seemed to be mirroring each other and pointing towards the tree, like natural signposts guiding the eye to the focal point
I composed this image to hide the construction work that is taking place to restore the fourth chimney.
Rooftop penthouses, luxury shopping, three cinemas and a hotel … the architects behind the London landmark's renaissance aren't short on ambition.

L'orangerie se compose d’une rotonde centrale à coupole et de deux allées latérales vitrées avec, aux extrémités, deux bâtiments à colonnes. Le schéma de la structure monumentale correspond à celui fréquemment utilisé au XIXe siècle.
La décoration sculptée du Jardin botanique est commandée et réalisée à la fin du XIXe siècle. Il est décidé de doter le parc d’une série de sculptures dans le but à la fois de l’embellir et de stimuler l'art public. Le projet est confié à deux sculpteurs reconnus, Constantin Meunier et Charles Van der Stappen qui se chargent de la conception générale et des esquisses et en confient la réalisation à leurs collaborateurs. L’ensemble comprend 52 sculptures, exécutées entre 1894 et 1898, dont différentes fontaines, des groupes sculptés et des figures évoquant le temps, les saisons, les plantes et les animaux, ainsi que des luminaires électriques.

This photo is composed by two images shot in the same day/time/place but with two different cameras:
- A99 for the foreground and mountains
- Nex-5R for the sky and stars
Some notes about this photo:
- the red sky is due to a longer exposure on the clouds and light pollution
- the tail of the stars is short, because you can decide its length in the camera app
- on the mountain on the left there's a repeater's tower with a flashing light
- both cameras were alligned on the same tripod at the same focal distance
- this village is called Capestrano located in one of the most beautiful places in Abruzzo region (Italy), it is situated few kilometers from the Gran Sasso. You can find it in some other pictures in one of my albums called "Abruzzo" or "Italy"

Composé d’un parc de plusieurs hectares, de jardins variés et d’œuvres monumentales, mais aussi d’un château normand du XIXe siècle qui abrite des expositions, le Centre d’art contemporain est un lieu atypique de la campagne rouennaise.
Le château se situe dans un parc de 6 hectares avec des univers différents qui évoluent au rythme des saisons : le jardin japonais, le jardin des cinq chambres, l’arboretum et la roseraie Renaissance italienne, le tout peuplé de sculptures monumentales de célèbres artistes (Peter Briggs, Norman Dilworth, Quentin Garel, Vera Molnar…).

The Adobe Badlands is characterized by abruptly sloping hills dissected by rugged, serpentine canyons. Most of this area is composed of Mancos shale formations that create a sparsely vegetated badlands landscape known locally as "the adobes." In portions of the area, wind and water erosion have created isolated small mesas surrounded by a maze of deeply-carved canyons, washes, and ravines.
Taken from the Jubilee Walk, while almost laying on my stomach to compose this shot. I have cropped it 7x3 & no, I could not centre the Dome :-)
Devils Tower (also known as Bear Lodge Butte) is a laccolithic butte composed of igneous rock in the Bear Lodge Mountains (part of the Black Hills) near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County, northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises 1,267 feet above the Belle Fourche River, standing 867 feet from summit to base. The summit is 5,112 feet above sea level. Devils Tower was the first United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres. In recent years, about 1% of the monument's 400,000 annual visitors climbed Devils Tower, mostly using traditional climbing techniques. The name Devil's Tower originated in 1875 during an expedition led by Colonel Richard Irving Dodge, when his interpreter reportedly misinterpreted a native name to mean "Bad God's Tower". All information signs in that area use the name "Devils Tower", following a geographic naming standard whereby the apostrophe is omitted. Native American names for the monolith include: "Bear's House" or "Bear's Lodge" (or "Bear's Tipi", "Home of the Bear", "Bear's Lair"; Cheyenne, Lakota Matȟó Thípila, Crow Daxpitcheeaasáao "Home of Bears"), "Aloft on a Rock" (Kiowa), "Tree Rock", "Great Gray Horn", and "Brown Buffalo Horn" (Lakota Ptehé Ǧí). In 2005, a proposal to recognize several Native American ties through the additional designation of the monolith as Bear Lodge National Historic Landmark met with opposition from United States Representative Barbara Cubin, arguing that a "name change will harm the tourist trade and bring economic hardship to area communities". In November 2014, one Arvol Looking Horse again proposed renaming the geographical feature "Bear Lodge", and submitted the request to the United States Board on Geographic Names. A second proposal was submitted to request that the U.S. acknowledge what it described as the "offensive" mistake in keeping the current name and to rename the monument and sacred site Bear Lodge National Historic Landmark. The formal public comment period ended in fall 2015. Local state senator Ogden Driskill opposed the change. The name was not changed. The landscape surrounding Devils Tower is composed mostly of sedimentary rocks. The oldest rocks visible in Devils Tower National Monument were laid down in a shallow sea during the mid- to late-Triassic period, 225 to 195 million years ago. This dark red sandstone and maroon siltstone, interbedded with shale, can be seen along the Belle Fourche River. Oxidation of iron minerals causes the redness of the rocks. This rock layer is known as the Spearfish Formation. Above the Spearfish Formation is a thin band of white gypsum, called the Gypsum Springs Formation. This layer of gypsum was deposited during the Jurassic period, 195 to 136 million years ago. Created as sea levels and climates repeatedly changed, gray-green shales (deposited in low-oxygen environments such as marshes) were interbedded with fine-grained sandstones, limestones, and sometimes thin beds of red mudstone. This composition, called the Stockade Beaver member, is part of the Sundance Formation. The Hulett Sandstone member, also part of the Sundance Formation, is composed of yellow fine-grained sandstone. Resistant to weathering, it forms the nearly vertical cliffs that encircle the Tower. During the Paleocene Epoch, 56 to 66 million years ago, the Rocky Mountains and the Black Hills were uplifted. Magma rose through the crust, intruding into the existing sedimentary rock layers.
