The manor Senden was in the Middle Ages under the name Benekamp owned by the family of Senden called Benekamp . The heiress of this sex, Kunigunde, married Alexander (Sander) Droste to Kakesbeck (1357-1401). His father Albrecht was a brother of Heinrich Droste to Vischering, progenitor of the later barons and Count Droste to Vischering , who are to this day, among others, at the castle Vischering , the moated castle Darfeld and the Erbdrostenhof in Münster resident. Under the name Droste zu Senden a new family branch was formed.

The son of Sander and Kunigunde, Ludeke Droste (1405-1466), built the much later supplemented Castle Send as a festival house in the form of a moated castle. His son Sander II Droste zu Senden (1448-1502) built the mansion in its present form, which is probably the oldest surviving architectural monument of this type and model for buildings of the Westphalian Renaissance with its three-level gable. Presumably from this time also comes the southern facing facade of the connecting structure with a series of stone cross windows and loopholes.

The interior of the 45 meter (147 ft) wide dome of the Il Duomo di Firenze (Florence Cathedral) features a sprawling mosaic decoration of The Last Judgment. Started in 1568 by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari, and several other artists, it took 11 years to finish. The upper portion near the lantern gives the illusion of three-dimensional imagery, incredibly impressive considering that it is a 430-year-old work of art.

 

Florence Cathedral is the main church of Florence, and is one of the largest in Italy. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can climb the Duomo; I counted 462 steps, but supposedly there are 467, and it’s well worth the effort. Mid-way up there is a gallery where you can walk around and see this amazing fresco a lot closer than from the cathedral floor.

 

For this photo, I couldn't get my Nikon D60 above the protective glass to get a shot...but my iPhone 6s+ did the job just fine. I have to say that the camera on this device is surprisingly good.

♫ ♫ Count on me! ♫ ♫

You can count on me like one, two, three

I'll be there

And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two

And you'll be there

'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah

This is done in-camera. It's not a post-editing effect or anything like that. I used a 10-stop ND so that I could get a pretty long exposure. I think the first 5 seconds were still, and for the rest of the time, I used the camera as a paintbrush, moving it up and down.

 

I have this shot on my desktop background right now (16:9 ratio is meant for my screen) and it looks quite nice.

 

Exif: ISO 200 ; f/3.5 (with a 10-stop ND filter) ; 26 sec ; @18mm

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends.

 

Thank you, all, for your genuine, unselfish support from day one 'til today. You are amongst my many many blessings in life. I hope all the good things you do come back to you a hundred fold.

Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binnenhof:

 

Fountain at the Binnenhof, in honor of Count William II of Holland. The fountain was donated in 1885 by the citizens of The Hague, on the occasion of a major overhaul of the Binnenhof complex.

It's spring in this house. I'm excited and happy that warmth and silly summer playfulness is finally nearly here.

 

Sunday isn't my favourite day of the week, it's been like that for as long as I can remember. There's something so dreary and depressing about it. Taking myself out and capturing pictures is my way of turning that negative feeling into a positive one. Good therapy session right there!

This week I’ve started clearing out my closet of photography gear, selling cameras and lenses one by one. So far, I’ve already let go of three digital bodies, one film body, and three lenses. A few more are photographed and ready to go — and I’m not finished yet.

 

What began as a simple idea — just getting rid of unused equipment — has turned into a bigger temptation: keeping only the essentials. The pieces I truly enjoy using, the ones that fit how I actually shoot.

 

This shift comes from last year’s experience, when more than half of my gear sat untouched at home. Most of the time, I relied on just one of my Fujis, my evergreen GF1, or one of the newer additions like the Z30 or R10.

 

I even toyed with the idea of shrinking everything down to just two cameras — but that might be too radical for a gear addict like me. Instead, I’ve landed on a more balanced plan: fill my four favorite bags. That setup gives me five cameras in total — four digital and one film.

 

Let’s see how far I can take it.

Found this fruit seller a few days ago when I was returning from Chittagong after a wrecked up vacation. Smoking and waiting outside of the bus terminal, I was in a complete disappointment and was trying hard to fight with my anger. Reason behind all these distress seemed unavoidable and insoluble. Whatever…

 

Looking at him I was thinking absent minded - what the hell is he doing? Counting those grapes one by one? One...Two...Three....Ten...Twenty... and writing it on that book?

 

Grape - 1300

Orange - 150

Apple - 200 ….

 

Ha ha ha …

Name: Pyer Eliss

Species: Human

Age: 22

Homeworld: Serenno

Faction: CR

Class: Scoundrel

 

Story: Pyer Eliss was the son of a wealthy Serenno Nobleman and close friend of Count Dooku. His family were seperatists during the Clone Wars, helping to fund the Confederacy's numerous military projects. Following the Seperatist defeat, Darth Vader and his Imperial army invaded Serenno, slaughtering the nobles and remaining separatists. Pyer fled, narrowly escaping, but his family were not so lucky. Overcome by grief, Pyer used his family's fortune to sell weapons to anti-empire guerilla fighters, seeking revenge on the men that killed his family and friends. Support of these early resistance movements were successful up until three weeks ago, when Pyer's main contact, former Senator Alam Sorio, went cold. Pyer now looks to find Sorio and free him, wanting to continue his fight against the Empire.
